I recorded my first time playing The Kids Xmas chapter (in one session), getting The Golden Gift achievement. I now have two long videos (both together take about an hour). I don't know, is that bad?  You can find Part 1 here and Part 2 here. |

just a quick question probably not worthy of a new thread,
i've seen some dude advertising "lets play" videos here. What's the deal? I remember the days when stuffing a lump of paper in the top corner of a cassette tape to record yourself playing a commodore 64 was cool but these days anybody can do it. and so i guess my question is this... if anybody can do it, what kind of satisfaction does whomever records themselves playing endlessly get from the process and why would anybody want to watch it?
there's a point to looking up speed runs to try find better routes, that same point applys to uploading your kick ass records. what the hell is the point to them lets play videos?

They're entertaining. Really thats all? for both the uploader and viewer... same answer? nothing to do with Narcissism or sycophancy? |

Well, for the viewers it should be entertaining, whether it's someone suffering or someone saying random stuff while playing to not let us get bored. I watch Let's Plays because without them, eating would be boring as heck. I don't know really about the uploader: Maybe he enjoys talking while playing, he can't shut up or he wants to corrupt our ears. |

On a sidenote, congratz to Breakdown over at SDA recently! Yeah, this was an extraordinarily good run. Very impressive work. Also perfect Larry Luck.  Funnily enough, he used a speed trick on 5-4 that I discovered recently as well. |

I'm not sure if I'm the "dude" you are referring to, but I have advertised Let's Play (super meat world) videos here. I was doing them for a few reasons: one, I enjoy playing, editing, and commenting on other players level creations. Two, I was providing a sort of critique or review service for the other map editing members of the community here. Three, I was trying to think of interesting content for my YouTube channel, and since I love Super Meat Boy, I figured what better way to highlight the great authors I stumble upon while at the same time having a blast wading through the not so great stuff... then I get to report back to you guys with my opinion of the cream of the crop and you can laugh at all my deaths in the meantime! Hope that helps you understand why someone might do this. |
