LRRbot: Quote #2385: "Put... on... back... butt." —Ian
RockPusher removes front butt, puts on back butt
SaxPython: Oooo, new game
letfireraindown: detachable Butt the best song since detachable penis
iarethel0ser:
TehAmelie: aah, great segue from Kpop Demon Hunters
TehAmelie: good work, the universe
SaxPython:
adept_nekomancer: A secret podcast!
adept_nekomancer: Mic level sounds good to me
episvont: Yeah
RockPusher: you could come up slightly vs game
realbadatthis_: level seems good
VorlonScout:
TheMerricat:
RockPusher: Heather has things to do, countdown
RatherLargeToad: the countdown was lies!
TheMerricat:
Someone is egar to get into the game.
TheMerricat: egear
TehAmelie: hi Heather!
RockPusher: Oh, traffic
Kirgo: Youve been warned.
Jillexie: Ah traffic
RockPusher: I was concerned Ian might have dentistry
adept_nekomancer:
Not abandoned, given full creative control 
TehAmelie: what is this tro-phic?
VorlonScout: hooray, consequences
episvont: No, Heather! No one should deal with chat alone.
RatherLargeToad: You must…believe!
WriterRaven: Having played through the entirety of Rift of the NecroDancer, yeah, that tracks. XD
SaxPython: More silksong chat?
TheMerricat: You could talk to US about it.
Jillexie: Endless
RockPusher: Ian Horner, lost to perpetual traffic
TheMerricat: Did you pick the sad ending or the sad ending?
TheMerricat:
Jillexie: It was a time for therapy.
adept_nekomancer: @RockPusher That's how traffic works. After all, traffic is the leading cause of isekais.
RockPusher: adept_nekomancer truck-kun out there doing important work
Jillexie: There is [redacted] and [redacted].
SaxPython: !findquote feet
LRRbot: Quote #877: "This controls worse than my feet!" —Alex [2015-10-16]
Jillexie: Ah, what lovely feet.
RatherLargeToad: can one ever have enough feet?
SaxPython: Boooooo
Bruceski: Monoco was a great buddy until I broke the damage cap. He just doesn't have the absurd highs like some of the other folks.
Jillexie: NG+
e_bloc: looking forward to the inevitable cross-over, raft of the necrodancer
TehAmelie: i hope the series doesn't end, or we'd be bereft of necrodancer
RockPusher: Heather is never wrong, merely mis-informed
hd_dabnado: id love to see a crossover with Cassette Beasts
TehAmelie: don't fight with the guitar, guitar friend
adept_nekomancer: Between this and Hi-Fi Rush, we have seen quite a bit of guitar-based violence on this show.
calculated_uncertainties:
100
Juliamon: adept_nekomancer Don't forget Infinite Guitars
gualdhar: the doll goes in the Shai'hulussy
adept_nekomancer: @Juliamon Right -- that was perhaps the best example of the genre.
Invitare: there was also Gitaroo
TheMerricat:
She was awfully arrogant for a boss that only got one hit on you.
TehAmelie: at least she wasn't guitarogant
episvont: That suddenly went hard...
Invitare: after watching Adam brute force hard difficulty I'm glad I can actually track what's happening now
Spades_Slicc: So is the goal to press button when the thing moves onto the arrow or when it moves onto the space in front of the arrow?
SAJewers:
should've invited adam to rhythm cafe today 
Invitare: He stopped at the DLC songs I think
WriterRaven: @Spades_Slicc When it moves onto the arrow.
TehAmelie: this is weirdly hypnotic to watch
phoenixletmeuseadashd: 189 combo!
adept_nekomancer: The variety of enemies makes this much trickier to parse than DDR-style arrows
Mollylele: heather is good at video games
Invitare: Heather certainly can't be trusted. There's this whole house full of lies
Invitare: we're all friends with Death. Eventually
TehAmelie: tfw you can't remember why you're in a feud
Spades_Slicc: Being friends with death sounds better than being enemies
gualdhar: i've seen your face Dove, we fucking know you're a psycho
NotCainNorAbel: My favorite; competitive yoga
RatherLargeToad: I’ve done hot yoga, but not hot minigame yoga
RockPusher:
TehAmelie: haven't seen such competitive yoga since Rhythm Heaven
adept_nekomancer: Have bird sit on phone, both problems solved.
Spades_Slicc: Breath phone in breathe feather out
Spades_Slicc: Is anyone else watching for a double breathe out/in
RockPusher: Give the bird the phone
ContingentCat: never again
Spades_Slicc: That was actually hilarious, the one blue slime getting set back over and over again
Bruceski: That was a neat setup, the blue slime just getting shuffled in the backgrund the whole time
adept_nekomancer: Poor slime is going to forget what timezone it's in with all these portals
hd_dabnado: yeah thankfully at lower tempos those are pretty forgiving on timing
Spades_Slicc: So like, what does this section of gameplay diagetically represent?
Invitare: monsters coming from a rift
Bruceski: The rift in the back opened and monsters are swarming through
VorlonScout: "I mean, look, I'm the protagonist, it's what I do."
adept_nekomancer: When you rhythm game so hard that the personification of death doesn't want to deal with you.
Spades_Slicc: Fun fact Sailor Moon kills most of her enemies
Spades_Slicc: Just straight up murder
farley_f: save her with the guitar - by belting her over the head repeatidly with it
hd_dabnado: love this part of the song so much
Bruceski: @farley_f Acoustic, electric? Nah, percussive guitar/
Walshman42: that looks absolutely insane to play
Thefluffiestguineapig: I made myself wait to get into chat until I had my food and dear merciful gods what the everloving fuck are higher level difficulties if THIS is medium on this level
Thefluffiestguineapig: Heather as always is very good at games
yuka34:
Thefluffiestguineapig: Also this was great "dance while you cook" music
Thefluffiestguineapig: Still better than I would do
Thefluffiestguineapig: Do you only take damage from straight up misses or from anything but perfects?
yuka34: only misses
adept_nekomancer: @Thefluffiestguineapig If I'm parsing the display correctly, it looks like only misses deal damage, though pressing where a note isn't intended breaks combo.
Thefluffiestguineapig: @yuka34 Thanks, I haven't seen much of this game so I'm trying to figure it out
yuka34:
Thefluffiestguineapig: @yuka34 Are you a Rhythm Cafe regular or is this your first time? Or am I just unobservant? All are possible options
yuka34: I watched Ben's Shandalar runs! Though I don't usually talk
TehAmelie: the dragons that you beat back into their own tails until they swallow themselves backwards still confuse me so much
VorlonScout: booyah
Xafty: i would never be good at this game.
adept_nekomancer: Bats... the bane of all video game protagonists ever
Walshman42: could you just hit all three rows all the time forever and not die? terrible score, but surviving
Thefluffiestguineapig: @yuka34 We lured you out! Welcome out of the lurk zone! We try to be a friendly bunch here, feel free to ask about anything we say that seems really weird because it may be a reference to something profoundly IAN
yuka34:
noted 
adept_nekomancer: It seems a bit too on the nose to loot a lute.
gualdhar: time to do a murder
Thefluffiestguineapig: Also, is it a lute like I tried to convince my parents to let me learn as a child? The Renaissance instrument that can have between 7-16 strings?
VorlonScout: Are the snakes repeat hits or holds?
Juliamon: Snakes are holds
Thefluffiestguineapig: I saw some skeletons earlier that seemed to take damage then retreat until they hit another monster and were forced forward, is that what this game considers repeat holds?
Thefluffiestguineapig: Repeat hits, damnit
Juliamon: There are several different repeat-hit mechanics
Juliamon: That's one of them

LRRbot:
Thanks for subscribing, bentbranch! (Today's storm count: 1)
Juliamon: Bats bounce to an adjacent square when hit, depending on which way they're facing.
adept_nekomancer: It's kind of the developers to make the bats not cloakable so you can always see which way they're facing.
gualdhar: wait, wasn't necrodancer working at a mcdonald's earlier?
Juliamon: yes, he was pretending to also be a victim
farley_f: no breaks, only rhythym
tdapenguin: !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!
yuka34:
4 raiders from FadedOasis have joined!
VorlonScout: Welcome raiders!
Thefluffiestguineapig: Welcome raiders!
FadedOasis: Hello everyone!
Thefluffiestguineapig: @VorlonScout Same brain cell
VorlonScout: Those half-beats get vicious
FadedOasis: Nice!
BusTed:
yuka34:
Juliamon: Survived!
hellerhighwater: Very nice!
Thefluffiestguineapig: By the skin of your teeth!!
adept_nekomancer: C is for clear
Bruceski: "one of you is a murderer."
Bruceski: I think she meant Merlin's puns.
farley_f: i guess the whole "my sword" thing goes with Cadences Axe "Guitar"
VorlonScout: Should have stuck to the burger job, dude
gualdhar: why does he look like the dutch guy on the LRR card sleeves
farley_f: so now we get that rich Bard on Bard action - where each side is trying to seduce the other
VorlonScout: See you in the next sequel!
adept_nekomancer: He may be evil, but his skeleton backup dancer coreography is impeccible.
shendaras:
Thefluffiestguineapig: DAMN
Thefluffiestguineapig: The backup dancers were a very nice touch
RatherLargeToad: you can’t Handel the lute
VorlonScout: Or don't go back. I hear Magic Hamburger just had a job open up
BusTed: ✨
itsaysTRUENO: Here, ill mark it on your map.
BusTed: the beard hairnet
SeismicLawns:
glad i joined in to exclusively see the credits 
Thefluffiestguineapig: These are rad hairnets
SeismicLawns: their new ghouls in life?
Thefluffiestguineapig: Credits DAMNIT
Bruceski: Utena?
BusTed:
Bruceski: Hey they included the Chandra pose!
Thefluffiestguineapig: YES
SeismicLawns: if you don't have the akira slide, what's the point?
Thefluffiestguineapig: The trying to get Kakashi to take his mask off thing
Bruceski: Nausica
BusTed: congratulations
VorlonScout: CONGRATULATIONS
Bruceski: Congratulations
SeismicLawns: CONGRATULATIONS
Juliamon: they have a full reference list on tvtropes
maybe_games: question: does the akira slide work on horseback?
BleedingToast: guren lagan?
Thefluffiestguineapig: @maybe_games In anime probably, in real life not at all
Spades_Slicc: @maybe_games Is the horse on its own motorcycle?
yuka34:
BlisS777: that pose early ago during credits pretty sure it’s from One Piece Boa Hancock.
Thefluffiestguineapig: What are the little armadillo enemies?
adept_nekomancer: @Thefluffiestguineapig double or triple taps depending on color, I think
Thefluffiestguineapig: @adept_nekomancer Ok, all of the enemy design in this game is fantastic
TimeToFry: I saw Adam play this on his home stream, the songs get MEAN at higher difficulties
TimeToFry: Off-beat triplets are so rude
Thefluffiestguineapig: @TimeToFry I believe it, Crypt of the Necrodancer was brutal and they have had years to fine tune
Juliamon: I think it's a free download
Thefluffiestguineapig: WHAT
yuka34:
Coda 
CloneFighter: Yeah, you don't want to mess with Coda until you KNOW you can do it
TimeToFry: I think he went through the game on Hard?
Thefluffiestguineapig: What masochist would do that to themselves????????
CloneFighter:
Also, can confirm, Hard songs can definitely get pretty mean. Two of them forced me into six-key mode 
Thefluffiestguineapig: @CloneFighter There's a six key mode?
CloneFighter: Technically six-key - it's two sets of keys to hit the three lanes with
yuka34: I only got the free DLC songs to work after downloading and restarting the game
yuka34:
CloneFighter
CloneFighter: So imagine WASD and arrow keys at the same time
Thefluffiestguineapig: What in merciful fuck must impossible be?
CloneFighter: Simple answer: don't.
Thefluffiestguineapig: If hard already has SIX KEYS????
Juliamon: It maps literally every note of the song
Juliamon: apparently
CloneFighter: Yyyyyeah. It's brutal.
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Juliamon I say again WHY
Juliamon: which is like, cool that they went to the effort, buuuut
yuka34: diamonds unlock Impossible songs
yuka34: I think 100 unlock all of them
CloneFighter: Diamonds automatically unlock songs!
CloneFighter: 100 to unlock Impossible mode, yes
TimeToFry: Diamonds unlock new songs
SpleenLord subscribed with Prime. They've subscribed for 105 months!
LRRbot:
Thanks for subscribing, SpleenLord! (Today's storm count: 2)
ThingsOnMyStream: !cardview off
VorlonScout: woof.
TimeToFry: Mixing up the different colour armadillos is mean >:C
Thefluffiestguineapig: Welp
CloneFighter: I'd recommend going through Hard Mode in the same order as you'd usually do a first playthrough. The difficulties are balanced so that once you beat Necro Sonatica on a given difficulty you can usually transition into Disco Disaster on the next
Thefluffiestguineapig: Yeah, the off beat combos are nasty there
CloneFighter: Oh, speaking of first playthroughs - did you go through the Story Mode yet? It's nice, has some punny humor, and opens up a lot of context regarding who and what you see on the screen
Thefluffiestguineapig: @CloneFighter Yup, that was most of the stream!
CloneFighter: Oh nice.
yuka34:
thanks for stream 
NotCainNorAbel:
500
Thefluffiestguineapig: Thanks for the stream Heather!
CloneFighter: Good luck on your journey to mastering Rift of the NecroDancer!
TimeToFry: Thanks for the stream
FadedOasis:
Thanks for the stream!
VorlonScout: Thanks for the stream! (and for getting all of these songs stuck in my head)
TimeToFry:
Ashmantle:
adept_nekomancer: Some excellent music in this one
shendaras:
NotCainNorAbel: Thank you so much for the VODs
CloneFighter: You guys look like you go the whole day around. I might as well stick around!
iarethel0ser:
Thefluffiestguineapig:
Thanks for the good chats as always, I hope Ian is doing ok
Juliamon: in what I suspect could be a trend, the last LN game could fit right in on W+P
ArdCollider: and side dishes!
NotCainNorAbel: non-zero chance to getting stabbed
Thefluffiestguineapig: @CloneFighter They do a lot of good stuff and are a good group of folks! Plus if you ever have any questions please ask, chat tries to make sure to clear up anything we can so everyone has as good a time as they can
Juliamon: !schedule
Juliamon: BR is Black Red, yes
Juliamon: it's Rakdos Nite
Juliamon: oh!!
Juliamon: yesss moar Kirby
RockPusher: Bonus Karby
CloneFighter: @Thefluffiestguineapig Oh, that sounds like a whirlwind of fun, then ^.^
adept_nekomancer: Kirby stream!
RockPusher: Mouth all the things
Juliamon: One week at a time
Ashmantle:
Juliamon:
CloneFighter Hope to see you around in more streams
adept_nekomancer:
BusTed:
FadedOasis: Byeee!
Juliamon: uh ohhhh
Juliamon: crimes
Juliamon: who was in here last... Cameron?
NotCainNorAbel: I can see Gib not doing the dishes, too much fur
Juliamon: yeah, Gibb's probably the most likely
RockPusher: Very reassuring
calculated_uncertainties: Secret podcasts are fun!
Juliamon: I am a normal amount of excited
FadedOasis: Ooh, I love podcasts
RockPusher: I'm excited for Heather being excited for Silksong
Cptasparagus: there are SO many games coming out in the next three weeks
CloneFighter: Okay I'm a bit afraid to speak up about this, but for whatever reason my country doesn't roll Twitch ads. Even if I'm not subbed.
CloneFighter:
So...... Hi? 
Juliamon: CloneFighter Don't worry about it!
Juliamon: LRR gets the cash anyway
CloneFighter: That's nice.
Cptasparagus: @CloneFighter everyone got a free twitch nitro!
Juliamon: and if anyone missed it, there was a fresh (ca. April 2024) Mail Time today
