Also, this is just a favor so you don't have to, but if someone who has a MarioBoards account would like (and if the mods there are OK with it) just make a quick post on my LP thread there with a link to the playlist and post this video there (Since I obviously can't do it) Just a relevant bump to that thread to let anyone interested know it's still going.

Super Paper Mario is now complete, if anyone wants to watch the full story or any part of it. Post-game content will come later. You can find the playlist in the OP.
I've also begun my second LP, SpongeBob: Supersponge, a rather short platformer for the GBA. A link to that is also in the OP.
This game kind of reminds me of those SNES Nicktoon games like Rocko's Modern Life or Ahh! Real Monsters. Then add an Earthworm Jim type of feel to the levels. I love so far.
I like the background in episode 3. That's the best looking level so far. 4 is up I think so I will watch that now.

Here's Episode 5, the finale.
And after playing Super Mario RPG for a couple hours, I'm not so sure I want to do a blind LP of it like I originally said. I died 3 times on Croco, there seems to be a learning curve to this game and I think I'd prefer to casually play it on my own time, especially since I'm still a beginner at Let's Plays and my commentary is lame or nonexistent at times already.
To compensate, how's Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door sound? I kinda feel bad for going back on what I promised in my update video, but I just don't think anyone wants to watch me bumble around not knowing what to do, or get my ass kicked by easy bosses.
Thousand-Year Door has so much dialogue, though. I love Let's Plays where people get their asses kicked like in Super Ghouls and Ghosts and Lost Levels. I guess I can understand, though. I think some spikes in difficulty exists in RPG like with Yaridovich so you might want to get used to the game first.
Back to Spongebob, I loved the Flying Dutchman and the graveyard level. The game looks pretty cool, but some parts look frustrating as heck like those spikes balls causing you to bounce higher in the level if you hit them. I hate that stuff. Thankfully, the game makes up for it with cool levels and shockingly good layout. I liked the LP. ^_^
It is up to you what to do next, but my favorite are always platformers, or other fast games. I liked how you broke up the RPGs by putting a platformer in the middle. Thousand-Year Door will be long. Any idea how you will break it up?

For TTYD, I will most likely try to divide it up like SPM was, with 4 episodes to a chapter. We'll see how that works out, I might do more than that.
As for a Sonic game, I don't own any at the moment, but I liked one on the GameCube that I played a while back. I think it was Sonic Adventure 2: Battle. I believe another one I enjoyed was Sonic Heroes. I'll see if I can do one in the future.
I might do an E3 reaction for parts that really hyped me up, but there's no point in uploading my reactions to things that didn't interest me. If that makes sense.
Thousand-Year Door usually had longer chapters to me with all the reading and some like chapter 3 can take a while for the story to finish. Pennington and Flavio dialogue will be epic, though.
E3 reactions, please! We all want E3 news and reactions from you would be awesome. If we get anything that interests you. I think we are in for a treat.

I will most likely split them evenly where needed, though on the field I will be using Yoshi quite a bit for speed, and in battle I'm sure I'll be using Vivian and Bobbery a lot.
It won't be a 100% run but I will be getting Ms. Mowz and most likely doing the Pit of 100 Trials at some point. But I won't be getting every recipe or completing the Tattle Log. I don't remember what all the Troubles are, but I will try to complete them. I know at least two require you to enter the Pit of 100 Trials, and not everything will be done during the main story. I'll save some for post-game, just like in SPM (which isn't completely done btw. I will do Flopside and Sammer Kingdom in the future too)
Episode 2 is rendering in Premiere right now. I will hopefully get it up shortly.
I do the same thing. Vivian for Cortez and Bobbery after that usually. I hope you get a cool Yoshi Kid color. What is your favorite?
That is awesome! I want to see the Pit, Troubles, and maybe some Pianta Parlor games since they are the rewards for troubles. It would be a fun little video to see. I totally get not doing all recipes. Do the important side quests. Sounds like you will have all the good stuff covered.
Cool! Hopefully you will not start getting whipped.

Apologies for the lack of videos. My GC memory card had corrupted and I had to buy a new one. Thankfully my TTYD saves were salvageable so I can record again now.

Haven't updated this thread in a while, but the playthrough is still going. I'm recording Chapter 2 now, here's the Peach/Bowser interlude from Chapter 1:

Apologies for the lack of updates. TTYD is on a short hiatus after completion of Chapter 2. In the meantime, I am planning to livestream Super Paper Mario's Flopside Pit of 100 Trials on Twitch in the near future.
Let me know if the embed doesn't work. There's currently nothing to see, but it should embed the stream when I get around to doing it. I need to know if anyone will watch it, and a good time to start the stream.
