tdapenguin:
@evilbadman 
Didero:
You get to hang out with us! You get to decide whether that's a perk or not
RayFK: Kiss from a rose?
GapFiller: strue sometimes having a job yr love really does mean not working
tdapenguin:
EvilBadman:
No wonder they're so expensive 
GasCityGaming:
it's pretty easy, lookup tutorials
Didero: Installing a video card should just be sliding thing into slot
Invitare: GPUs are relatively durable. It's not like a processor where if you accidentally brush against the wrong part of it it's bricked
Aceviru: Be sure to uninstall previous drivers and update them once you install
RayFK: God it's work
RayFK: It's so much work
GasCityGaming: power hookup probably too
RayFK: Just gotta backshot the graphics card
TXC2:
Cons are work were you get a cold afterwards almost every time
GapFiller: having been on tour w/ various bands in my lifetime yeh thats #Relatable
NorthstarTex: Videocard installation is on the easier side of PC Upgrading, the easier upgrad task is RAM and that's pretty much the same, short of wiring
GasCityGaming: *Don't* give the card backshots
TXC2: RayFK Jordan please
LordZarano: Slide it in and feel the static shock as it connects that completely fries it
Didero: nah just leave the computer running
GapFiller: some of us remember the good ole days of screwdriver pressure on motherboards
public_key_reveal_party: I mean, motherboard is probably the hardest, but that is rare to need to do
GapFiller: watched a lotta football
RayFK: Did very little. It was great.
GapFiller: and Eurovision
EvilBadman: Did a charity board game thing with Joe Kim
GapFiller: oooh dog barf
EvilBadman: We came...not last!
Bassios:
My parents had a BBQ yesterday, I had leftovers for lunch today
RayFK: Fiancee had a concert, it was nice. Otherwise it was some chores and not working for a day (a novel concept)
Mischievous_Catgeist: taking care of my mom after knee surgery and my new bunbun crawled into my lap on his own for the first time.
RayFK: @EvilBadman Good pause
TXC2: EvilBadman congrats
RayFK: Our local brewery has special treats for our Magic crew's dogs that are just for them and their stomachs.
GapFiller:
Cheezmo:
Didero: Give him a collar with a label saying "Don't give me treats"
GapFiller: RayFK somebody has absolutely tried the dog treats havent they
RayFK: I hope not, they're not THAT dumb
Invitare: dog-friendly pubs in the UK often have a jar of dog biscuits and it did not take long for my parent's dogs to figure that out
RayFK: Bring Remy and come a day earlier
RayFK: Thank you
RayFK: Dude
RayFK: This week
public_key_reveal_party: Then you just have to hope Remy doesn't learn how to read and use a sharpie to cross off "don't"
GapFiller: this week is DB Express
couchboyj: How's Gus been doing?
RayFK: Nut
EvilBadman: @RayFK Oh, jordan, take that boy to have grits. I know we're not in the south but there's places.

couchboyj: Adorable
GapFiller: !dbexpress
Anubis169: Also, she's lost the gurgle at the end of her breaths, and her voice has jumped a semitone
GapFiller: gotta admit to being sus of people who go have yr just try breathing fresh air after the post Covid period of oiks saying that in relation to mask wearing
momma_tatts: Lollipops worked for Columbo . . .
Didero:
Oh right, your pet allergies while you live in a zoo
GapFiller: so the phrase 'just try breathing fresh air' codes weird to me these days sadly
Anubis169:
GapFiller: When I took my mask off in my room after a holiday, the oxygen rush made me superman for a good 15min 
public_key_reveal_party: Yeah, people who have or are going through it as well is like, the people who can help the most l

public_key_reveal_party: Let's Nope Podcast sans Adam
Micalovits:
We enjoy hearing you rant 
Didero: That's why I don't do or consume possibly addicting things: I don't think I'd be strong enough to get myself un-addicted
WiJohn: Real change from the laser focus of let's nope
Anubis169: Over to you TXC2!
RocknGrohlNerd:
Well knowl friend-haver and friend enjoyer Ben
lamina5432: you ramble even with other people (let's nope) though I enjoy it
TXC2: thanks Anubis169
kevenwith2es: Okay, but where's the unhinged "which would you rather?" part of the podcast
GapFiller: people who say 'yr gonna die smoking' are all cops
Didero: These pre-game chats are fun
RayFK: Friend enjoyer? gross
BrowneePointz: @GapFiller I take MASSIVE umbrage with that
Anubis169: GapFiller: I'd contest that, I've lost far too many friends and family to smoking
Anubis169: and I'm not a cop
BrowneePointz: Slay da spire!
GapFiller: fair I'll hold up my hand on that
Anubis169:
RocknGrohlNerd: The game looks great and the sound design
BrowneePointz: Southern Gothic
GapFiller: Southern Gothic
TXC2: Previously on Avatar...
Anubis169:
Wonderful game 
quasi79fu: benjy
quasi79fu: Southern Gouthic
GapFiller: really tempted to pick up this game mysln
Didero: I remember a talking catfish
quasi79fu: during a hurricane
GapFiller: Didero yeh we freed him!
LithelyUnshod: I looked it up; Chickasaw County is in Mississippi. Prospero is made up, likely a reference to The Tempest
BrowneePointz: for chat general cw for trauma and grief related things
Syntheticuh: perfect timing i just got done watching all the GUNK
GapFiller: ^
TXC2: !cw
LRRbot: This game contains, or we have found it to contain, material that may be upsetting to some of our viewers. If that content is a problem for you, it's okay to not watch this stream. Self-care is more important.
BrowneePointz: was a brother murdering his Autistic brother
BrowneePointz: yep
Didero: Fraticide
quasi79fu: BEnju the treee
silent_sol: Are dog dying?
TXC2: silent_sol not that we have seen yet
Micalovits: A rabbit very much got murdered
quasi79fu: Two Toed Tom
Didero: Not to nitpick but out of curiousity: Is it a crocodile or an alligator?
Mischievous_Catgeist: alligator ?
Didero: I keep forgetting the difference
Aceviru: The music also goes hard at times. Game is good
Bassios: I literally watched the first VOD this morning, this game looks great
fiftymcnasty: Alligator
BrowneePointz: Catfish said BIG gator
silent_sol: How many toes does a gator have?
baltimore_667083: I mean Florida does have crocodiles though
quasi79fu: Gator
fiftymcnasty: @baltimore_667083 only the very tip
quasi79fu: Famous legend of a gator
MikeProvencher: The music in this game is some of the best video game music I've ever heard.
TXC2: the nose
BrowneePointz: rounded snout vs pointed
fiftymcnasty: Size for 1
Invitare: spelling
kevenwith2es: Florida is often confusing, yes.
baltimore_667083: I think it’s the snout
lamina5432: aggresion?
silent_sol: Crocodile see you in a while, gator see you later
HadesLeprechaun: Snout width
GapFiller: isnt it something abt the teeth too
quasi79fu: snout
fiftymcnasty: Crocs get bigger
EvilBadman: @HadesLeprechaun YES
Brozard: Say "See ya later" and see how they respond
baltimore_667083: gators are a mascot, crocs are a shoe
Didero: Movement seems fun in this game
BrowneePointz: Snout Width and how their teeth overlap
BrowneePointz: but you can't normally tell the teeth without staring at them a while
BrowneePointz: so it defaults to snout
Mischievous_Catgeist: fun fact Florida actually has Nile crocodiles running lose ....
TXC2:
Mischievous_Catgeist because of course it does
fiftymcnasty: Crocs are also a bit paler than alligators
GapFiller: huh so they do
Mischievous_Catgeist: in his bare feet!
GapFiller: per wikipedia 'it is currently unknown how many Nile Crocodiles are at large in Florida'
baltimore_667083:
Ben Hill Griffin strikes again
gualdhar: So many pythons in the everglades, it's sad

Brozard: Fun fact, Florida has year-round python hunting in the Everglades
quasi79fu: anyone else wanna try to ride Two Toed Tom?
Didero: Games should show a quick story and controls reminder if you haven't played for a few days
couchboyj: Gators are kinda all over SW US. Crocs are just along the Florida coast
couchboyj: SE US, rather
BrowneePointz: also I missed it live and watched the VOD but seeing your reaction to how the soundtrack builds throughout the level until the apex was SO great. I had the EXACT same reaction when Rhubarb's vocals kicked in for Benjy's theme
quasi79fu: Benjys song is so traumatic
Invitare: Pokemon FrLG did that
BrowneePointz: As a musician
BrowneePointz: I fucking GUSHED over the music and sound design in this
Brozard: @couchboyj I mean, they're rarely on the coast, gators prefer freshwater
BrowneePointz: and how they use it to enhance narrative
Didero: Music is so powerful
Didero:
Now they just need to add subtitles to the song
quasi79fu: subtitles to the songs would be great help
quasi79fu: Catfeeeesh
Brozard: They do that for anime, they can do that for video games! *slams fist*
HadesLeprechaun: I don't blame them though, because I've never seen any game do that, so why would they think to
Didero: I mean, if you subtitle speech, then subtitling songs too seems incredibly obvious
BrowneePointz: expedition 33 has that problem on gamepass
BrowneePointz: and it drives me nuts
accountmadeforants: @BrowneePointz Really? I thought it did, now I'll have to check.
BrowneePointz: it does not
GapFiller: speaking of subtitles LRR Twitch subtitles wd be nice but it figures Twitch CC is finicky enough as it is
BrowneePointz: for folks that dont' stream, you can't adjust the audio levels and monitor them in OBS if the application doesn't continue in the background
BrowneePointz: which makes audio balancing a NIGHTMARE
quasi79fu: oh i had to that with this game to see who was singing songs
quasi79fu: ye the cow lol
Brozard: Exploding Mushrooms, love that band
Didero: Glad the cow is ok
quasi79fu: i did that tooo
GapFiller:
TXC2: forget saving mom, time to save cow
BrowneePointz: Fetchez la vache!
silent_sol: Moo
BlueMechanic: can we at least get them some tools?
LordZarano: If it's licenced music then putting the lyrics in requires another licence for more money. But the music in this being unique they definitely should have the lyrics
GapFiller:
Critterbot: Boo!
fiftymcnasty: they are on higher ground now
quasi79fu: sigh dad jokes lol
Brozard: That bovine is doing fine
GasCityGaming: omg i made the same joke lmao
accountmadeforants: @BrowneePointz Huh, you're right, weird. I'm so used to it not being an option but defaulting to leaving audio playing, so it never occurred to me that they'd mute audio by default.
BrowneePointz: *higher ground Red Hot Chili Peppers version starts playing*
TheDevil_Risen: is this done with CG claymotion?
couchboyj: Must be a Witcher's cow. They can save their own cow.
BrowneePointz: I don't THINK they used physical models like The Midnight Walk
TheDevil_Risen: ahh k
quasi79fu: MIdnight walk is claymation game
Critterbot: It's kinda stop motiony.
BrowneePointz: it's inspired by Studio Laika stop motion
ContingentCat: clay-adjacent
Didero: @TheDevil_Risen They skip some animation frames, but there's an option to turn that off
GapFiller: yeh it feels like a dfft kinda stop motion to claymation
BrowneePointz: Speaking of The Midnight Walk, is that on y'alls radar for Let's Nope?
TheDevil_Risen: ahh k, cool
BrowneePointz: Boxtrolls is SO excellent
quasi79fu: Omg I love box trollls
tdapenguin: Question-- the text description syas that this is Let's Nope instead of Play it forward. Is that a me problem or something that hasn't gotten updated ?
kumatsu: every time I visit MOPOP I see the Boxtrolls and go "I should watch this" and then forget to follow through
BrowneePointz: Ben Kingsley is the most EXTRA villain in it
goatprince: g o a t
TXC2: tdapenguin no I got that too
TreeVor84: Paranorman is very good
GapFiller:
goatprince hai Matt
Didero:
Ben is so used to doing Let's Nope that every stream is now called that
tdapenguin: Ha!
goatprince: that's personal, ben
GapFiller: BrowneePointz VR support for Midnight Walk sounds like a way to get Cori in for a Talk 'N Nope xover
BrowneePointz: I also love that we have a radar line like Dead Space so we know WHICH direction to go to last
TXC2: all banjo-y
quasi79fu: ye every chpt hasa their own uniqye song
BrowneePointz: I also, as great as the E33 soundtrack is, DESPERATELY hope this wins best Soundtrack at the game awards this year
EvilBadman: LB is a stun/freeze too, I used the hell out of it
GapFiller: BrowneePointz ohhh this v E33 at this years Game Awards
RayFK: Agreed
Didero: "Best game that also exists"
Invitare: GTA VI gonna keep farming "Most anticipated game" awards
TXC2:
or to DLC
Thisbymaster: They will invent a new category to give it something
EvilBadman: I sincerely doubt it will win or even be nominated
Mischievous_Catgeist: we just need a best remaster of the year award
lamina5432: but ben they need more room for ads
BrowneePointz:
I mean Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D came out in November so it's not even the best Remaster this Awards Year
Didero: It's a big game from a big studio, so it 'has' to win something
Invitare: this is the Switch 2 year too
Micalovits: I do not get why they didn't introduce a "Best DLC/Expansion"
fiftymcnasty: and isnt that what the game awards are about, money
GasCityGaming: bethesda definitely gives the VGA some money too.
Syntheticuh: best remake/remaster/dlc cat makes so much sense
ContingentCat: our old rival capitalism
BrowneePointz: for those who haven't played it the DG3 Remake is ACTUALLY very very good jokes aside
GapFiller: keep forgetting is only a couple weeks away (speaking of Geoff Keighley)
EvilBadman: @Micalovits Because most of the DLC haven't been expansion sized ala Erdtree
quasi79fu: What do you think Dooom Dark AGes will win for game awards?
GapFiller: *keep gorgetting Summer Games Fest is only a couple weeks away
itsaysTRUENO: a tv event that is comprised of advertisements lol
GasCityGaming: It's real good!
fiftymcnasty: its very fun
GasCityGaming: not as good as this or E33 but a lot of fun
TheDevil_Risen: croc
HadesLeprechaun: Catfish said Gator
fiftymcnasty: pointed is croc
Didero: She called it a 'gator' earlier
Krektogar: noe of us have ever been Doomguy, unfortunately
xVoxtric: Ringing the bell awakening? Chosen Undead
fiftymcnasty: also this is 100% an alligator
TheDevil_Risen: as an aussie thats a croc
quasi79fu: also lets not forget that Death stranding two is coming out
TXC2: so this croc gonna tech us energy-bending ?
BrowneePointz: He's a gator. He's based on a big ass gator from Folktales going about at least 150 years
itsaysTRUENO: I had gator nuggets in florida
quasi79fu: he is rounded
BrowneePointz: going back*
UltraVioletVodoo: gator
EvilBadman: they've been sayin' gator in-game
GapFiller: Terrifying Sea Monster Turns Out To Be Even More Terrifying Amphibious Monster
itsaysTRUENO: gator nuggets taste like chicken, its good
TheDevil_Risen: is it framey your end ben?
Invitare: there we go, it's a gator
TheDevil_Risen: or was that me
Invitare: fish just confirmed

GasCityGaming: i've had gator too, it was good.
Didero:
Dead cow 
Didero: cown't
TXC2: TheDevil_Risen I think that's the aesthetic
ContingentCat: rip cow
BrowneePointz: It legit tastes like chicken but tougher
BrowneePointz: which is funny since we all joke about everything tasting like chicken
quasi79fu: waas it a cow or a pig?
Mischievous_Catgeist: nuuuu moomoo

BrowneePointz: its how you get all sorts of diseases

HadesLeprechaun: They chillin
WiJohn: Get out of our house!
fiftymcnasty: hold rb
HadesLeprechaun: Hold the button
TXC2: we've interrupted a steamy love affaire
itsaysTRUENO: what's his ultimate
BrowneePointz: Ye! Crouton is a reference to Haitian Voodoo and the burrowers/borrowers are a reference too
Invitare: it's called a tithe
Didero: It's a sing-along too!
lightfut: They're called indulgences
EvilBadman: It's ok, it's not Taxed
RayFK: Goatally
TXC2: new Popes don't pay for themselves Ben
iris_of_ether:
Thisbymaster: Prosperity Gospel is just a "Greed is good" cult
WiJohn: Can you launch goat?
BrowneePointz: did we get the collectible in that burrow?
quasi79fu: gator farm
accountmadeforants: The wope

GapFiller: oh thats literal mouth
BrowneePointz: it's enrichment
Micalovits: Yes, why would you??? You monster!
EvilBadman: I ran into so many of them
Thisbymaster: the new pope isn't that woke, he just spoke out against women's rights and against gay people
Mischievous_Catgeist: its fun for him...
Carlioo: maybe he thinks it's fun!
BrowneePointz: He's indestructible and it gives him adrenaline
itsaysTRUENO: this hurricane has good level design sense
TheDevil_Risen: there's different coloured boards in that rail car
accountmadeforants: Game's got on-board tricks
Carlioo: oh there was a prompt there
TheExactSame: is drowning when you go to hug a crocodile irony?
HadesLeprechaun: Shiny boards in that boxcar
GasCityGaming: lmao the 'thunk'
Didero: That graffiti says 'floof', so we're not the only one that like the word
itsaysTRUENO: he's goin' in
TXC2: (hacker voice) they're in
BrowneePointz: WHUD
BrowneePointz: I love a good whud
Didero:

quasi79fu: ye crouton makes the best noises

GapFiller: BrowneePointz wheres the Eat At Joes sign at

Didero: Crouton just wants to help!
Micalovits: Uhh... Don't kinkshame I guess?
TreeVor84: Don't kink-shame the little guy

gualdhar: No kink shaming in this channel
TXC2: BrowneePointz the great depression affected people.... in ways

Didero: They should sell Crouton plushies
GasCityGaming: even makes the noises
itsaysTRUENO: wtf that mud looks so good
BrowneePointz: generally speaking, if it's a glowing burrow or suspiciously Crouton shaped hole? Worth checking out
quasi79fu: put him down? like Ol yeller?
Bassios: Crouton'd!
xVoxtric: Crou'don't
Carlioo: wow those guys do some damage
xVoxtric: "little" that is a 12 ft gator

TheDevil_Risen: ok thats the most croc looking gator i've ever seen

BrowneePointz: He was merely 8 ft long!
BrowneePointz: the choice of Kids Chorus in the composition is SO good
BrowneePointz: the 50s were weird
quasi79fu: lol gamers dont look up
BrowneePointz: well 40s/50s
Brozard: big = quality
Mischievous_Catgeist: chillin
GapFiller:
!?
TheAinMAP:
ContingentCat: america likes big *shrug*
silent_sol: To attract other big people, and those eat a lot
Thisbymaster: The 50s were a big car culture time with people not having internet to look up stuff and only really on what they can see while driving
BrowneePointz: It was post war, we were making Big Roads, and folks wanted a way to make folks using the Big Roads to stop and check them out
GapFiller: theres an old LRR bonus vid abt Big Things on BC Highways
gualdhar: The world's largest dinosaur sculpture is in Alberta

itsaysTRUENO: is there a Mr Samsung
Carlioo: I didn't wanna say anything but yeah good grief
BrowneePointz: Acryllics are a vibe

BrowneePointz: DO NOT LISTEN TO THE SOUNDTRACK IF YOU DON'T WANT SPOILS!
BrowneePointz: the soundtrack WILL spoil the game for you
GapFiller: Didero yo 18USD is a literal actual STEAL
Didero: Oh wow, the death screen has options for just going back to combat, or starting outside of it, thoughtful
quasi79fu: ye soundtrack is big spoiler
quasi79fu: ive beeen very good not spoiling
Didero: I feel like even the soundtrack titles might be spoilers, so sorry for spoiling anything by linking it
BrowneePointz: You're fine Didero. It's not often a game ties music into the narrative this directly
Didero: @GapFiller It's somehow only €10 for me on Steam, which seems rudely low
xVoxtric:
I got to lv30 in FFXIV without reading a single quest log, the way MMOs are meant to be played 
quasi79fu: we can discusss Benjys song sicne ben himself got past that chapt

Didero: @BrowneePointz Yeah, but even games with less music-tie-in could have a title like "Fighting My Best Friend" which could be a spoiler
BrowneePointz: Arr a bit rough until the end
xVoxtric: To answer your question though - I'm interested in learning the story through a format where reading is part of the game
BrowneePointz: but then it starts RAMPIN
Mischievous_Catgeist: doctor who?
lamina5432: most people have fallen off the new stuff
Thisbymaster: I hate that it is difficult to find Doctor Who streaming
RocknGrohlNerd: @Mischievous_Catgeist exactly
Mischievous_Catgeist:
silent_sol: OD strand blast
GapFiller: still gotta get round to Ncuti Gatwa
xVoxtric: I watch 9-11 when it aired on TV, I recently re-watched it up to 11 and I'm mid on it. I hope I will like 13 and beyond.
BrowneePointz: Disney Plus has new who, Brit Box has Old Who
TXC2: I've been watching it, it's been very muh, last episode was good though
Didero: I watched the two Jodie Whittaker Doctor Who seasons, and I liked them but I have no desire to watch more of it
lamina5432: yarrharr yarrharr
lightfut: Yo ho ho and all
GapFiller: came back for the Anniversaries having fallen off after Capaldi then forgot to keep going
HadesLeprechaun: Gatwa had a meh first season, second season has been a fair bit better, I've felt
Didero: I also like having my shows on my own harddrive instead of having to stream everything
Syntheticuh: what is plex
xVoxtric:
10G home fiber for my server
LithelyUnshod: Gotta pay for Plex now
GapFiller: which is a shame cz by the sounds of it theyve really bounced back w/ Gatwa RTD2
Thisbymaster: Tennet is my doctor
BrowneePointz: I think Capaldi and Jodie were good doctor's who didn't get the writing they deserved
TXC2: Thisbymaster same
quasi79fu: i wannna ride Two toes tom
lamina5432: I think the writing has fallen since smith left and also a smith fan here

TXC2:

Rourke9: I liked eccelston and got kind of lost after that
lamina5432: she was a pacifist so there was a lot less conflict in some ways
lightfut: This coming from Nog with his mount/dog
GapFiller: TXC2 once read a blogger who explained it best as Doctor Who being a show thats periodically cancelled and renewed w/ the same premise but an entirely dfft cast and crew
Bassios: I fell off Doctor Who in the Tennant era, tried a few episodes of Smith's run and his doctor just felt like Tennant But More
GapFiller: which yknow regeneration makes diagetic
fiftymcnasty: Think of the food cost though
TXC2: GapFiller pretty good take really
BrowneePointz: Ben's next Character. Bullywug/Grippli/Grung Ranger with an Alligator Pet
GasCityGaming:

Didero: Can you use that grapple point to glide back to the house?
beowuuf:
@GapFiller lol, sometimes soft cancelled/ rebooted, other times hard cancelled
BrowneePointz: we can go in the house
Didero: Just because there's no reward doesn't mean the journey wasn't worht it
quasi79fu: lore
Didero: From the fact the dad threatened his daughter with a crocogator, I'd say he's not very nice, yeah
quasi79fu: who wants to start singing Dolly Partons Jolene song right now
GapFiller: quasi79fu low hanging fruit
BrowneePointz: GUNS ABOVE GOD

BrowneePointz: Bloodhounds are PRETTY darn calm as a breed
ReddHaring: I like the stop motion stutter effect but wish it was a little more consistent.
quasi79fu: look at that Kidzu
lightfut: Cow just doin a monch
Brozard: Related: woken up this morning to one of my partner's dogs attacking the other. Again.
BrowneePointz: also yea so much Kudzu
GapFiller: the calm dog is the one to pay attention to cz they only bark when its important
Rourke9: only one *needs* to bark. Buddy’s got it covered
Mischievous_Catgeist: Love the touch of him showing he is Cajun Navy by having it on his boat
Didero: Why is there water pouring out of that rock?
quasi79fu: are you sure we cant go swimming?
BleedingToast: omg

gualdhar: picture of Ben between an ice cream cake and a toilet, with the caption "Isn't there someone you forgot to ask?"
GapFiller:
BrowneePointz: Getting hit by a Manure Spreader into shitty water has BIG Jackass energy
quasi79fu: MOnarch Cottton
BrowneePointz: god I'd kill for another Jackass movie rn
GapFiller: BrowneePointz shame all OG Crew are now old and broken down
BrowneePointz: I liked the 4th one. They got less shitty to other people in public in that one
TXC2: Jackass is very much of it's time
GapFiller: yeh time hasnt been kind on that front
BleedingToast: yeah "pranks"
Didero: People ate tide-pods
RocknGrohlNerd: owl !! I saw an owl ?
Rourke9: they would get a ton of copy cats yeah

RocknGrohlNerd: RIPig
quasi79fu: rest in bacon
BrowneePointz: yea I noticed the older ones were pretty shitty mean public pranks, but 3 and 4 were mostly them pranking each other with just a couple public bits. I think even THEY realized the vibes on public pranks have changed
WiJohn: o7
gualdhar: damn cute on the Christmas dinner table
Didero: Gotta update the Let's Nope warning: A pig might die
Rourke9: RIP
Didero: Speaking of Let's Nope, the stream title still has 'Let's Nope' in it
GapFiller: Didero dont worry abt it
TXC2: 90 mins in the penny drops
quasi79fu: hahhahaha
Didero:
@GapFiller If there's one thing I'm bad at, it's not worrying
gualdhar: we blame muscle memory
GapFiller: tbf Alex did it all the time w/ Stalker too
Omnipotrevor: Professional
Didero:
Wait, this isn't Let's Nope?! *turns off stream*
quasi79fu: welll technicallly this is a horror game
lamina5432: we did just see the horror of a pig dying
Krektogar: we recently had a pig at the shelter where I volunteer, he was extremely cute and cuddly
quasi79fu: so lets nope did fit
GapFiller: at least we havent had to change stream category yet
TheDevil_Risen: o7
GapFiller: !break
LRRbot: Remember chat, break time for the streamer means break time for YOU, so unclench, get up, stretch, walk about a bit, and maybe refresh your drink, take your meds, or go to the toilet if you need to. Don't forget to wash your hands!
beowuuf:

Didero: No offense but I'd rather have this as a PiF than as a Let's Nope so Adam can't talk over the story >_>
WiJohn: Move things in to or out of holes as appropriate
TheExactSame: Fill what is empty, empty what is full, scratch where it itches
EvilBadman: @Didero lol
GapFiller: oooh poker
TXC2: perform the sliding block puzzle of biological imperatives
beowuuf: ok, is james going to have marshall on speed dial (assuming he plays)
TXC2: and we're back
Didero: "Why did you die so often?" "I, uh, wanted to appreciate the respawn animation"
Didero: Days, weeks, months
TXC2: multiple years
beowuuf: "we're sponsored by wish spiderman"
TXC2: inconceivable aracnoboy
beowuuf:
GapFiller: does every game need to reinvent the wheel tho
GasCityGaming: the combat is a story-enabler
lamina5432: in a very pretty way too
LathosTiran: gaming in general feels post-inovation. we've solved everything already
thedevil_risen1: Man, the latest festival in a box sald out super fast . Glad i got mine
Didero: The FAQ on their website makes a point of saying you can lower the difficulty at any time
Didero: So they want everybody to experience the story
Thisbymaster: This is giving me Psychonauts vibs
BrowneePointz: So of note Ben, in a section where's there's multiple knots you can go to, follow the guide line
BrowneePointz: you CAN get the story beats out of order
BrowneePointz: cuz uh...I did it
Didero: @Thisbymaster Except less whimsical
EvilBadman: never dreaded the combat, conversely I never felt like I was being a complete badass
thedevil_risen1: *sold
GapFiller:
thedevil_risen1: Yeah the dynamic difficulty choice is mint
beowuuf: can't fall in to the shiot water if anready in the shit water *forehead*
Didero:
As a pro-gamer, you probably don't need all those upgrades anyway
BrowneePointz: but yea I got in trouble here going for goodies and getting the story out of order XD
TXC2: "inside you there are two wolves, one has ADHD, the other Autism...."
goatprince: stygma butt
BrowneePointz: this one is the last one
BrowneePointz: the other one is the next one
BrowneePointz: yeeeep
BrowneePointz: i dun goofed myself on my playthrough XD
Didero: Odd that it lets you do it out of order
EvilBadman: You can do them out of order. It doesn't really matter
TXC2: sometimes it's fun to mash
goatprince: hit button make brain go ook ook
EvilBadman:
The stories the same regardless the order
Micalovits: Ehhh
GapFiller:
Didero: It was self-defense!
GasCityGaming: *shrug* anyway
TXC2:
I think that counts as murder
gualdhar: probably deserved it
SymphonySolstice: jolene, jolene, jolene joleeeene, I'm beggin' you please don't eat my man
Micalovits: Technically not okay buuuut....
HadesLeprechaun: He seemed like a dirtbag
GapFiller: yeh they had it coming no jury ect
Didero: You can't prove she was anywhere near the gator
thedevil_risen1: Guily as charged of being awesome streamer
thedevil_risen1:
Ben
EvilBadman: It's be hard as hell to prove she rang a bell what killed him without a witness
HadesLeprechaun: She was simply ringing the dinner bell, like anyone could have been doing
Didero: That dude ate something wrong
goatprince: he ain't done nothin' bad to nobody
TXC2: not even taco Tuesday
BrowneePointz: I mean, it's a Just thing she did, but was it Good? Who can say
HadesLeprechaun: I forgot about it literally every time, lol
Micalovits: Just give them a hug!
Omnipotrevor: old man Ben can't stand the cold
TXC2: a fogster
TheAinMAP:
Mazrae: I try to keep my apartment around 67f or 18.4
Mazrae: 19.4c**
GasCityGaming: bottle tree!
Twilight_Spark: Sweats in 32.
Micalovits: I am European, what is this AC you all have?
Didero: Now it's no longer a secret sense, since you told us about it
Bassios: Blan-cosy
Micalovits: Though in Denmark it rarely gets hot enough to need any cooling
goatprince: walking around with a fleece blanket draped over you, pretending to be a cozy wizard????? primo
Mazrae: I keep it cool and still walk around in athletic shorts and a t-shirt
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Micalovits If we all lived in the European model we would have way fewer issues
BrowneePointz: yea i'm a high 50s-mid 60s fella myself
JKBalch: Ben sounds like an orchid
Thefluffiestguineapig: @BrowneePointz Fahrenheit absolutely
Micalovits: Sadly my fighting game prowess is non existent
gualdhar: push the button
TXC2:
windows updates are why i didn't watch CDHC last week
Twilight_Spark: It's just like that Amnesia game with pigs.
gualdhar: (Push the button)
JKBalch: You can hear the pigs snore if you listen
LordZarano: I got my heating set to 19° but I think we're now into the months of the year when the heating never comes on, cause it's currently 21°
TheAinMAP: They are pigs in blankets (to sleep).
GapFiller: eepy pig party
GasCityGaming: Cuddle puddle
Micalovits: Giant cuddle puddle
WiJohn: Aww cuddle pile
goatprince: they're stuffies, acually
Didero: Let's Nope warning update: Some pigs might die
NorthstarTex:
BrowneePointz: Hurricanes
Twilight_Spark: Anyways I'm vegetarian.
BrowneePointz: they suck
TheAinMAP:
TXC2: enjoy you're breakfast chat
GapFiller: !picnic
LRRbot:
THERE IS NO NEED TO PANIC, IT'S FINE.
TXC2: *your
Didero: The big slumber party in the sky
Thefluffiestguineapig: Hurricanes: extremely the worst
Didero: What did they all die of, anyway? They can't all have been crushed
gualdhar: Today I sent a voodoo doll into an abbetoir, what did you do?
WiJohn: Sound design
HadesLeprechaun: Yeah but there is a note that says Bunny let this happen to save a buck
BrowneePointz: yea bunny could've saved them
Invitare: he just needs a Snickers
GapFiller: we shd perhaps be glad video games havent tried Smell O Vision yet
Thefluffiestguineapig: The heat and the visible haze of smell is so visceral here
Invitare: you aren't you when you're hungry
BrowneePointz: but decided not to protect the livestock
TXC2:
Didero exposer is the only thing I can think of
Twilight_Spark: Shadow of the Tomlossus
Didero: "Wait up, Tom, gotta run to the boss arena"
BrowneePointz: he's based on a folktale that goes back a century irl
LordZarano: Why is it that the friendliest and most intelligent of the farm animals is also the tastiest?
lamina5432: have you met florida people
TXC2: it's the deep south Ben
itsaysTRUENO: americana spirited away
Micalovits: Thats just Tuesday in Florida
Mazrae: Going to jump on the back of that gator like you're Steve Irwin
LordZarano: (Ham was the last meat I dropped)
Twilight_Spark: Which part?
Thefluffiestguineapig: Have you seen the number of gators in florida?
vinewood_og: Feed Dump ended for a reason lol
HadesLeprechaun: Mississippi
Twilight_Spark: It's just how it is that there's a big gator out there.
BrowneePointz: GET READY
BrowneePointz: FORA FUCKING BANGER
LithelyUnshod: Chickasaw county is in Mississippi
itsaysTRUENO: the eviction notice in the earlier chapter had a county in mississippi
GapFiller: does it need to be any more specific than The Deep South Ben
HadesLeprechaun: Get those vocals ready, Jolene!
Thefluffiestguineapig: HOLY SHit
Micalovits: Oh hey look, its Belial!
Didero: wait, turns out getting bit by a giant alligator hurts
TXC2:
are we sure Tom isn't a zombie?
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Didero Getting bit by a normal gator hurts
Thefluffiestguineapig: Uuuuuuuhhhhh, why did his eyes turn into yellow fire?
TXC2: "ring ma bellllllllll ring ma bell"
Thefluffiestguineapig: I know because of the bell
Thefluffiestguineapig: But yellow fire?
Didero:
@Thefluffiestguineapig Getting bit by most anything hurts
GapFiller: TXC2 given the setting zomebie in the original sense doesnt sound outta the question
BrowneePointz: LOL
BrowneePointz: the way he fucking YEETS that bell
Didero: @Thefluffiestguineapig Yellow means the attack can't be dodged, I think
HadesLeprechaun: Gators one of those animals that never stop growing
GapFiller: Didero yes but some more than others
TXC2: GapFiller touché
lightfut: This soundtrack
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Didero I'm a vet tech, can testify this is true but it's about the scale of how much it hurts
Thefluffiestguineapig: The sound track slaps so hard
GapFiller: presumably getting stemrollered by a giant alligator is gonna be more than a stubbed ttoe
GapFiller: Ring Out!
Mazrae: They better of got Dolly Parton to sing as Jolene
Twilight_Spark: Greeeed
Didero: @Mazrae That would've been cool but also seems very expensive
Micalovits: That sounds like Greed
Thefluffiestguineapig:
GapFiller:
!?
Thefluffiestguineapig: Soooooo greed?
TXC2:
greed? or speedruning?
calculated_uncertainties:
100

ReddHaring: Ooh Dolly soundalike
Invitare: she's literally called Jolene
accountmadeforants:
Thefluffiestguineapig: I am predicting eventually our catfish friend will be corrupted and we have to purify him
GapFiller:
BrowneePointz: those TROMBONES
HadesLeprechaun: Yeah, not Dolly, but they are in the comments on the yt vid for this song saying they are a huge fan, and Dolly was a big inspiration
TXC2: Jonah time!
GapFiller:
ShadowAce0: that boss battle could defintely use some tuning.
gualdhar: that was a whole-ass car just sitting on the side there
A_Dub888: Hi friends in what cardinal direction are we in relation to midnight?
Didero: I think I know why this gator's so grumpy, this has got to hurt
accountmadeforants: He even ate a whole AAA corridor
WiJohn: Well clearly it's worse than the adorable very alive pig cuddle pile
HadesLeprechaun: Pig friend still alive!
TheAinMAP: Is he bigger on the inside?
TXC2: hello A_Dub888 we're in a giant croc's belly, so south?
Thefluffiestguineapig: @BrowneePointz Gotta send Nelly this track
Twilight_Spark: Gator or croc? There's a difference.
FriendlyNeighborhoodGM: Just tuned in; what is this? Monster Hunter by the Bayou?
Twilight_Spark: Weird.
Didero: Everybody keeps calling it a 'gator'
gualdhar: yeah, MC keeps calling Tom a gator
HadesLeprechaun: Catfish has now said gator twice
Twilight_Spark: Gator makes more sense regionally.
BrowneePointz: chat
Rourke9: yeah aren’t gators the ones from that area?
BrowneePointz: he's based on a folk tale about a GATOR
A_Dub888: now I want a Gator Dog
WiJohn: Gator is more appropriate to the American south
Sacrenos: Gator is more likely seeing the game is placed in the south.
BrowneePointz: florida gets both ye
fiftymcnasty: No Crocs in Louisiana/Mississippi
Twilight_Spark: Crocs are a lot less common. The Nile ones aren't native but are around.
LordZarano: Scientifically, gators are a couple of species of crocodile
ReddHaring: Umm actually life insurance doesn't pass through a will but rather by the terms of the policy itself (proceeds to push glasses so far up his nose that he can't breathe).
HadesLeprechaun: I did the same thing, lol
A_Dub888: Hang on, the town is named ‘Prospero’ and the game opened with a storm…. is this a revenge plot??
Invitare: chickens are dinosaurs
CraziestOwl: so are chickens
GapFiller: imagine what itd be like if they had salties in Florida
LordZarano: Older than dinos even, iirc
BrowneePointz: but yea America Crocs are more indigenous to the Caribbean/Mexico but they DO show up in Florida
Invitare: that's stomach acid
BrowneePointz: THE ORGAN
GapFiller: theres that old xkcd abt how T Rex is closer to birds than stegosaurs
BrowneePointz: WAS DIEGETIC!
Didero: See, the pig's fine
Invitare: you'd be melting
TXC2: somehow not killed by stomuch acid
TheAinMAP: Thrown-up was probably thee best option.
Micalovits: See, just sleeping pig!
BrowneePointz: I love that the Organ in the soundtrack was diegetic the entire time Ben
Didero: You're an adult, you can just buy a beignet
A_Dub888: Dammit now I want a beignet!
RAICx: Can confirm, beignets are delicious
RebekahWSD: They are delicious
Goldensaber22: its because theyre french AND fried
Invitare: you shouldn't definitely take a dip in the water before you start dissolving
LordZarano: What's a biegnet?
Invitare: @LordZarano French Doughnut-ish
TXC2: bold to assume I have beignet money
TheAinMAP: She asks the talking giant catfish.
Invitare: the pig is watching you
Invitare: suspicious
ShadowAce0: fish fry yum
Micalovits: I am calling betrayal
Didero: That's ok, the pig survived, that's the most important
Invitare: might be a spy
LordZarano: Pig lived
malsareus: come on Ben, they're saving up for their own bar
Angnor33: Worst case scenario: Fish & Chips.
GapFiller: over under on heroic sacrifice or turning evil
Twilight_Spark: Pig is Huggin' Molly?
A_Dub888: wait, we’re just leaving Piggu behind??
TheAinMAP: If he's the narrator, he can't die. Right?
gualdhar: oh no, this is Lala Barina all over again isn't it
BrowneePointz: Hogging Molly is an actual Deep South Cryptid
BrowneePointz: err ghost story? Cryptid? can Ghost stories be cryptids?
Didero: I forget, Bunny is Hazel's mean grandma, right?
goatprince: g o a t
HadesLeprechaun: Bunny is Hazels grandma on her dad's side
Didero: fox
TXC2: fox is sus
Invitare: she's rich. All rich people fill their homes with traps and puzzles
Invitare: this is a known thing
Didero: @HadesLeprechaun Thanks
BrowneePointz: Rich White Grandma
TXC2: I get "get out" vibes from her
HadesLeprechaun: she owns lots of the business in town, such as the pig factory
BrowneePointz: Oh yea she is definitely an Old Money White Lady in the South with all of the side eye vibes that comes with that @TXC2
HadesLeprechaun: it's so over the top it's almost not even horror. My mom gets scared very easily but The Substance didn't bother her because of how absurd it gets
BrowneePointz: Horror should be more synonymous with unsettling
BrowneePointz: vs strictly "scary"
A_Dub888:
Chicken Jockey? 
TXC2: there are different kinds of horror
cobthegreat: Suspense
ArvynEternal: instill dread
HadesLeprechaun: Y to inspect?
ScrapyardGhostTrain: The problem comes from people mistaking jump scares for horror.
HadesLeprechaun: spooky mountain
ShadowAce0: some floofs to the side i think
tdapenguin: I am totally okay with ghost stories. But I hate the building feeling of something-will-go-wrong, so I straight-up avoid all horror
A_Dub888: Ben, I think YOU’RE great
TXC2: tropes are tools, and tools can be mis-used
HadesLeprechaun: good jump scares are earned through well built tension, bad ones just happen for cheap shock value
Didero: Ah, the Adam school of handing compliments
tdapenguin: Quick, Ben is here, let's say nice things!
tdapenguin: @hadesleprechaun yes, well-said. Also, I dislike both of those so will avoid both sorts. But I can appreciate the existence of them elsewhere away from me

BrowneePointz: we don't know how dad died
BrowneePointz: they just said suddenly when hazel was 4
Micalovits: Different random call! Catfish IS the dad!
Thefluffiestguineapig: @BrowneePointz Or if he's stuck here even
BrowneePointz: he died his LAST name is flood
gualdhar: can't have an angsty young protagonist if *both* their parents are alive
Micalovits: If I just guess everything one of them has to be correct
Didero: You need a reason to be sad nowadays, because of woke
BrowneePointz: left
BrowneePointz: implies abandonment
lamina5432: left
silent_sol: Abandonnement
A_Dub888: the parent left and then died
goatprince: go left
GapFiller: !left
Angnor33: No parents, you are a vergence in the force...
Micalovits: Left and doesn't want them in their life
Didero: Left is worse because it means they could've chosen to stay but didn't want to
gualdhar: one dies, and the other leaves because of it
TXC2: death can lead to closer, left doesn't
silent_sol: Left and made another family
BrowneePointz: Case in point: Treasure Planet
BrowneePointz: the ANGSTIEST Disney movie
protojman: parents leaving can be hopeful that they might come back or be found.
cobthegreat: Left/ evil
calculated_uncertainties: dead leaves you sad and angry they're gone. left gives you that and the added question of if it was your fault
TheAinMAP: And then there's "was told they died, but they actually just left."
RAICx:
Left, because it just ain't right
BrowneePointz: it's stigma
mowdownjoe: BUN
malsareus: meat weed
fiftymcnasty: Tobacco
WiJohn: Tabaco
Angnor33: I'm guessing spider eggs in the roots.
BrowneePointz: stigma BALLS
Didero: Does seaweed grow in a bayou?
A_Dub888: mead
HadesLeprechaun: there is a sign on the front of the barn with the business
GapFiller: Didero depends on the bayou
TXC2:
the stream comes full circle, we're back on Tobacco
GapFiller: TXC2 truly time is a flat circle
tdapenguin: Reading!?
Didero: Ooh, upgrade available, we can get the cool power now
HadesLeprechaun: i saw green glow under cieling board
fireowl98: wacky tabacky
TXC2: GapFiller exactly, that's why it's only 1 dimension
BrowneePointz: gotta be around to the roof somehow
Micalovits: Damn, good eyes
Didero: Don' leave Crouton behind! D:
GapFiller: huh
malsareus: holy shit Ben
HadesLeprechaun: it's fine probably
Didero: Wow, that's mean Ben, why would you do that
silent_sol: You desintegrate him
calculated_uncertainties: he doesn't want you to unsummon him
beowuuf:
gualdhar: mushroom count: 7
silent_sol: He wants to die
silent_sol: Die in combat so he can reach vahalla
TXC2: "exsistance is pain Jerry!"
tdapenguin: Invasive dl
HadesLeprechaun: he wishes to die for a cause
beowuuf:
maybe he's a tailor and means dye, did we ever think of that?
tdapenguin: *invasive floofy plants
calculated_uncertainties: crouton also prefers dead companion to left companion.
tdapenguin: (I assume invasive. I guess they're native somewhere)
HadesLeprechaun: charged attack and ground pound are the ones I remember
Didero: YOU're very pretty
Didero: He's learning!
Steelwolf171: Wait...that's a cottage?? It's the Addams Family Mansion!
mewietwoie150: wish me luck gonna try my new red green beast tribal commander deck today at the lgs
TXC2: good luck mewietwoie150
Didero: Can we loot the old lady's place while we're here?
TXC2:
it's not theft, it's inheritance
BrowneePointz: glarbomiglius
TXC2: fambily
BlueMechanic: Fambly
HadesLeprechaun: love that, blaming the brother for not watching his sister while she was sleeping nearby
WiJohn: Generational Trauma!
mewietwoie150: had to spend that sweet onslaught foil contested clifts
TheAinMAP:
Invitare: don't worry, the rich are good at getting rid of the scum
TXC2:
Invitare but the rich are scum
Invitare: scum from their perspective, I mean
Didero:
Man, if only there was a regular LRR show where combo's and movement were important
HadesLeprechaun: "weave in the moves" nice
BrowneePointz: It's very much more PS2 era platformer combat
BrowneePointz: One of these days we've gotta get Ben playing through the 3 sly cooper games
BrowneePointz: only 3. they didn't make a 4th, why would you even insinuate they did
BrowneePointz: THERE IS NO SLY 4 *shakes chat vigorously*
BrowneePointz: Ask any of Chat that's from the south who accidentally got dirt on their Sunday Clothes
gualdhar: you don't get used to the heat, you get use to other peoples' stink
GasCityGaming: stink stank stunk
TXC2: cheapskate keeps using dig
BrowneePointz: Childhood Accidents...
Micalovits: Oh
TXC2: so much death
Micalovits: Well fuck
BrowneePointz: this immediately gave me Moon Knight flashbacks
Thisbymaster: and that is why you don't make a big deal about dirt
mewietwoie150: thats why you never ever wash your kids
lamina5432: because letting one kid take care of another is never a good idea
BrowneePointz: No, it's why you don't let your kids play unsupervised when you LIVE BY THE FUCKING RIVER
Thisbymaster: the kids will just get dirty again
BlueMechanic: Maybe eventually one of these past memories will be a nice day at the beach
GapFiller: we all remember Bridge to Terabithia right
TXC2: "if you make a big deal out dirt, you will get pregnant, and you will die"
BrowneePointz: I love how Ben is casually walking away instead of sprinting
BrowneePointz: just jogging away from Fog man
GapFiller: BrowneePointz Ben aint in no hurry see
BrowneePointz: much like after eating the Ice Cream Cake from DQ
BrowneePointz: saving energy for the Final push
GapFiller: pity we cant play the piano
TXC2: "lions and bears and owls!" "oh...my?"
BrowneePointz: I LOVE that they included Rougarou
Didero: These doors seem huge
BrowneePointz: some fun Cajun folklore
LordZarano: Crouton hole!
ShadowAce0: crouton?
GapFiller: it IS an Old Timey Southern Mansion tbf
ReddHaring: Damn I didn't know a cajun grandma would put a swear on her wall
BrowneePointz: WOAH woah woah. Granny is not Cajun
EvilBadman: @ReddHaring oh, bless your heart
ReddHaring: Oh fair I've been in and out and didn't realize this was the lighter side of the family
calculated_uncertainties: The professor is trying so hard to get a date
BrowneePointz: haha well I mean more specifically Grandma IS White but she's more "Old Money Antebellum" and not Cajun @ReddHaring XD
Thefluffiestguineapig: @BrowneePointz Yeah, she wouldn't want black people in her family at all
ReddHaring: @BrowneePointz Yeah I was shortcutting
lamina5432: resurrection is always causing a problem
BrowneePointz: Grandma seems like she throws around the word Miscegenation
GapFiller: nvm the doors being big how abt that bed
Didero: Maybe Hazel is shrinking
HadesLeprechaun: Benjy's heart, the red gash we saw inside Benjy
EvilBadman: I would advise looking in the other rooms before continuing in here
GapFiller: maybe its a magic feather
GapFiller:
a literal red twine conspiracy wall
TXC2: I wonder when this is set
GasCityGaming: current day
GasCityGaming: there are a couple signs with '2023' on them
GapFiller:
TXC2: GasCityGaming ah, ok
tdapenguin: I don't like Bunny. Don't think I'm supposed to, tho
BrowneePointz: real talk
BrowneePointz: this fit slaps
GapFiller: anyone elses trap sense tingling suddenly
BrowneePointz: and I wanna see folks cosplaying it
GasCityGaming: see, it was a pig factory, they were MAKING pigs
TXC2: outfit from the cover
LidofLoathing: CONGRATULATIONS. IT IS A PIG.
Invitare: she had an entire outfit that fits you perfectly just in a cupboard?
TXC2:
GapFiller yes, we're talking to the villain
GapFiller: Fox!
TXC2: Invitare eh, these two are about the same size
BrowneePointz: the voice acting in this is SO good
TheAinMAP:
BrowneePointz: good talent and great voice direction
Thisbymaster: I wonder if Bunny is also evil
gualdhar: yes
Micalovits: "Yes"
tdapenguin: @browneepointz true!
Didero: Little bit of both?
lamina5432: everything is probably grey
GapFiller: heel program
