Let's Play The Dark Eye [06] - She's your cousin, dude. 1/1
Transcribed by Equinoxinator:
Dear Cousin Edwin,
Due to the unfortunate prejudices of my employers, I find myself suddenly without work and in acute precumiary difficulty. It would be of commensable assistance to me if you would suffer my presence for some short time at your estate. I request some time away from the (?) influences of the city to right myself and renew my energies.
I await your reply with humble hopes. Please express my tender affections to my dear cousin, Elise your ward. I'm afraid I don't quite know what to do with myself in this world. Perhaps you can give me some good advice
It'll be on Twitch, which I somehow didn't mention. Link: https://twitch.tv/kyosho
ACCOUNTABILITY
Also it's Eastern Daylight Time. THANKS AQUA. Sigh.

If you're not familiar with this game, it's a tactical shooter from 1999. A little dated by today's standards, but still fun. Especially co-op. It's a bit buggy and laggy. We tend to spend more time trying to get the game working than actually playing it. The game is brutal. The enemy are crack shots. And you, more often than not, die in one hit. In this session we were playing on Medium because, with the lag, Hard was just not working for us. On Medium, we can (occasionally) survive a hit or two, depending on the location of the damage. This game requires careful planning and strategy. And a slower pace. It was made freeware several years ago when the sequel was coming out. You can download it here:

We were using Mumble for voice communication and Hamachi to make setting up a game easier (it fakes LANs). I'm fairly new to the game so I tend to let these guys take point. This is a mission at the end of one of the campaigns. There not a whole lot of context or story, so you're not missing anything.
This is not a Let's Play by any means. I just decided to try recording some of our sessions. There might be more of these videos in the future, or there might not.

Rather than subscribe to all of a person's videos, you used to be able to just subscribe to one of their playlists. Has youtube removed that function? If so, that's really lame.
