Juliamon: can't blame them

AMillionCatsOnTypewriters:
Juliamon: and we have tunes
Earthenone:
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: I look forward to some scenic climbing.
JadedCynic:
Heck, the Sunshine Protection Act actually passed the Senate in 2022 (to put US clock on DST year-round) but it got stalled in the House and never even looked at that year...and thus it's basically in limbo 
TXC2: JadedCynic damn
TheMerricat: @JadedCynic Best part, since it's stuck in limbo, they can't just 'repass it' to get it looked at again.
JadedCynic:
Being an amateur astronomer, I'd prefer to have noon the time when the sun's at its highest...but just to not-jetlag people twice a year, I'd settle for constant DST 
Juliamon: yeah I'm at the point where I don't care which way we shift, as long as we FUCKING SIT THERE
TXC2: Here we GO!
TXC2: PAUL SONG HYPE

TXC2: the best of room tone strikes again
Juliamon:
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: Yeah, you really want controller.
TXC2:
me: Keyboard and Mouse is it then 
LordZarano: Cairn, by the same devs as Furi, the swordfighting bullet hell bossrush, weirdly
TheMerricat:
Chat, anyone else nostalgic over the era where you didn't need batteries for your controller?
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: @TheMerricat I still use a wired controller
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: You also have a smaller backpack in Free Solo.
TheMerricat: 'all'
TXC2: TheMerricat a company could make so much money making a USB x-box controller

Singenmeister: @AMillionCatsOnTypewriters They are USB-C, so yes.
TXC2:
Kami = Sprit? seems sacrilegious 
TheMerricat:
That she doesn't want to rip up her skin on a mountain. 
tdapenguin: maybe we're really not very good at climbing...
TXC2:
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters well there's no adapters for a XBOX 360 controller at least
tdapenguin: @TheMerricat except her right knee, b/c right knees are annoying?
TheMerricat: @tdapenguin Look, it knows what it did.
public_key_reveal_party: I love this game, but your character also will randomly become a monster from a body horror film sometimes
TheMerricat:
I'm glad our opening shot was her showing off how flexible she was, cause Paul's making htis look like QWOP.
tdapenguin: @public_key_reveal_party ah, you mean the joints being extra-something-something?
Boopity:
@public_key_reveal_party That's just how rock climbers are sometimes
TXC2:
funny how this person has all these bandages and NO CHALK
Juliamon: this is feeling a bit... Getting Up It with Bennet Foddy
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: @TXC2 They have chalk actually
TXC2: AMillionCatsOnTypewriters ah good
TheMerricat:
I sure hope our game plan isn't to jump down from the top of #3's wall.
public_key_reveal_party: @tdapenguin Sometimes your limbs will all try to occupy the same spacetime coordinates as your entire body as you become a single point mass, it happens
anclag: Can you imagine watching someone in a climbing gym, who looks like they’re doing a game tutorial, who also insists they’re about to go climb an unclimbable peak
ArtDecoSunburn: The coloring and lighting give me the vibes of rotoscoping, "The Last Express."
Boopity: "Can I choose a different limb?"
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: Look for clues on where to grab
TXC2:
we could almost scratch our own ear with our foot there
tdapenguin: @public_key_reveal_party now that you've pointed it out, it does sound perfectly reasonable
public_key_reveal_party: @Boopity In the game, you do have that option, but it is a little fidly at times
tdapenguin: i am not enjoying the aspect where the heaviness of our breathing is relevant info to pay attention to
TXC2:
I assume that if someone came into a rock climbing gym with this backpack, they'd be asked to leave
Juliamon: she's using those grippers
anclag: she wants to become one with the mountain…you’ve gotta be barefoot for that
tdapenguin: the lack of tape on her fingers & toes (especailly the tips) is making me assume that she has impressive calluses
Singenmeister: @TXC2 I mean, there's larping, and then there's "no I need to do this so I can train with this weight load on me"
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: Are you holding?
public_key_reveal_party: @tdapenguin That is a mechanic in the game actually
TXC2:
Singenmeister weight vest do exists for that though, this has health and safety violation written all over it
tdapenguin: @public_key_reveal_party wow, neat
Boopity:
@public_key_reveal_party I am looking forward to realistic callous simulator then 
tdapenguin: climbbot is a helpful friend
TheMerricat: me too Paul. Me Too.
evil_h2o_elf: you say that, but then... QWOP
Juliamon: Sometimes I do, and it sucks
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: Climbbot is a good friend.
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: You can comb the the other rock walls.
public_key_reveal_party: Climbbot is a very good little guy.
Juliamon: (my brain frequently has issues with going downstairs and I have to focus manually on stepping down)
TXC2: disappointing lack of Kendel mint cake
TheMerricat: Chat sure, this is a video game, but lets pretend this tech was real. You think that other climbers would be angry at you for coming to a climb with a 'climbbot' and 'self screwing piton' and call you a poser or would they embrace the extension of their ability?
tdapenguin: i hope it doesn't get too cold on our tallest mountain or our poor little toesies will be very coldsies
TXC2: Juliamon I HAVE to look at my feet to walk down stairs
Boopity: @TheMerricat Gatekeeping? People would never

tdapenguin: @TheMerricat both. at first, poser all the way. but once it got more use, it would be common and you'd've been the forerunner
TXC2: TheMerricat the piton wouldn't be a problem, the climbbot would 100% not count for "solo" climbs
tdapenguin: @TXC2 maybe there'd be a new category: "solo and a half"
Boopity: Climbing Mt. Everest Any%
TehAmelie: surely we can always trust robots
TheMerricat: @tdapenguin tool assisted solo.

This does make me appreciate how relatively silent the protagonist in Jusant is compared to this 
TXC2: Nihilism, but it's the word "great"
SymphonySolstice: @TXC2 the bus with two passengers meme
TXC2: SymphonySolstice exactly
SymphonySolstice:
TheMerricat:
Wait... that wall was or 'daily commute' wall?
TehAmelie: you did it!
TXC2: and we're outside suddenly
tdapenguin: does our climbing gym just open onto our moutain?
anclag: Wait there’s more mountain!?
public_key_reveal_party: This game has some pretty brutal ragdoll physics, ngl
TehAmelie: does that mean we missed the chance to do a cool dive?
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: There is stuff to find.
SymphonySolstice: they just built a climbing gym on the side of a rock face
Boopity:
@TehAmelie I feel like there are plenty opportunities for a cool dive on a mountain
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: That is not Kami
TXC2: like building a pool next to the sea
tdapenguin: are we going to be grumpy again?
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: If you have two piton scraps, you make a piton
Boopity: The bag also has physics?? Amazing
TXC2:
ah, good to know my daily diet is that of a mountain climber
tdapenguin: hang on, climbbot can turn plastic into chaulk!
TehAmelie: i know, if we eat all our food we don't have to carry it
tdapenguin: (In addition to joints, i see we are also violating some laws of chemistry)
tdapenguin: @TehAmelie totally legit technique
public_key_reveal_party: Your character is also very good at not preparing well for a climb
TXC2: tdapenguin that or climbbot has a fusion reactor inside
tdapenguin: @TXC2 new climbbot fact accepted and loved
TXC2: I assume that's what we planting at the top of the mountain
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: Oh the staff? It is for when you are walking in the dark
TehAmelie: a 10 foot pole is standard equipment for adventurers, right? we just modernized it a bit
public_key_reveal_party: @AMillionCatsOnTypewriters That is exactly what it is for
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: @public_key_reveal_party Yes.
tdapenguin: speaking of nice, clean water: i'm going to go steep some tannins into mine (aka make tea)
public_key_reveal_party: @AMillionCatsOnTypewriters Oh my bad, I read your original message as "is it" not "it is". My bad haha
Boopity:
@tdapenguin Oh, thanks for the reminder, I should do that too
AugmentingPath: Ah, you must have been manually allocating your limbs, then
gsyhiap: Doing the splits is just a flex...
SymphonySolstice: I think free climbers are the type of people that scare me the most
TehAmelie: like The Producers sang, if you've got it, flex it
public_key_reveal_party:
Pro climbers have all their colliders that aren't on their feet or hands surgically removed 
TXC2: ow
TheAinMAP:
anclag: It’s okay, we’ve thought ahead and already put bandages on

Exurgency: If we're questioning things; I think I'd just have gone -around- the mountain.
LRRbot:
If you see something funny or particularly noteworthy, make a Clip of it! Your clip could appear in a fortnightly video or be seen at https://www.twitch.tv/loadingreadyrun/clips (Please give your clips descriptive names if you want them to be seen!)
public_key_reveal_party: @TXC2 The mountain has plumbing set up, it's fine
Exurgency: Is that a wasp nest?
SymphonySolstice: shorter distance on the other side yeah
TXC2:
public_key_reveal_party somehow both incredible, sublime work, and yet not up to code
Exurgency: Not up to code? It compiled! That's good enough.
TheMerricat: @TXC2 I mean there is a reason why they call it _Mountain_ spring water.
Barb4rian: Such bokeh
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: Just an interesting spot
TXC2:
TheMerricat I thought that meant in the valley of the mountain
public_key_reveal_party: I mean, I would play Assassins Creed QWOP
TheMerricat: bold of you to presume Ubisoft is going to survive long enough to have a next Assassin's Creed game....
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: You got an achievement at least
LordZarano: piton is french for nail. also pih-ton
TXC2:
Pitoff'd more like
TehAmelie: we seem to have a great deal of hit points at least
Boopity: I wish I had that many hit points irl
gsyhiap: What a shame that nobody was watching...
Juliamon: those screams... really hit
TheMerricat:
Climbot... you aren't helping.
TXC2: Juliamon a little too realistic
public_key_reveal_party: There are some very painful looking ragdolls in this game too
SymphonySolstice: hm
TheMerricat:
Spiderman would be impressed.
Boopity: Diva
SymphonySolstice: I don't think leg should bend like that
TehAmelie: that stance. . .
TreeVor84: the limb shaking is making me flashback to the few times I did rock climbing many years ago.
TXC2: cheevo!
Barb4rian: BEES not the bees!
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: Hold the rope and ascend
SymphonySolstice: I think it gave you the option
TehAmelie: we can't climb up the rope huh
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: @TehAmelie You can
Juliamon: pittens
Boopity: Pittance
SymphonySolstice: pee-tohn
Juliamon: it's more like pea-ton
TXC2: you are not Wrong Paul
public_key_reveal_party: If you grab the rope you get the option to climb or rapel
Boopity:
It's the entire english pronunciation system that's wrong
TXC2: Boopity unironically yes
TheMerricat: You broke the one you failed to drive, you need two scraps to built one
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: You need 2 things of scraps to repeair
ScrapyardGhostTrain: Boopity Yes, but also, this word specifically is French, so...
LordZarano: That's... an extremely british pronounciation of that french word, game
Mangledpixel: LordZarano and it's not even the British pronuncation
TehAmelie: guess we're relying on foraging
Mangledpixel: (we also say pie-ton)
public_key_reveal_party: You had 2 chocolate bars and a pack of instant ramen, what more could you possibly need?
TehAmelie: mm, i long for spring when i can pick fresh nettles
ScrapyardGhostTrain: @LordZarano And Paul's is an extremely American pronunciation.
SymphonySolstice: increase food
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: You drank one portion
TheMerricat: you got four juice, you drank one.
tdapenguin: all of this talk of piton pronunciation and i am now convinced i have no idea how i usually say it.
TXC2: !findquote
TXC2: !findquote ready

public_key_reveal_party: This game is if the RE4 inventory management had physics and no grid
TXC2:
tdapenguin welcome to English
TheMerricat: piton repair is trading 2 scrap for a new piton.
TehAmelie: i think the most you can do is pronounce it distinctly from "python" to reduce confusion
tdapenguin:
@TXC2 booooo 
TheMerricat:
She said she wanted to touch eterinity. better to see the stars if you climb at night.
SymphonySolstice: she's too on the grind to sleep
TehAmelie: leg day, arm night
tdapenguin: core all the time
TheMerricat: She's reading as a very driven, very antisocial type person.
TXC2: she locked in too hard and too greedily
TheMerricat:
Yeah Lord Zarano, but the French say it wrong.
LordZarano:
@TheMerricat
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: I'm curious to see how far Paul will get.
tdapenguin: folks who know climbing gear better than me -- why does it look like we have eyeballs on strings?
tdapenguin: but also, doen't soil provide slippage?
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: Those are the pitons to screw into the mountain.
tdapenguin: @AMillionCatsOnTypewriters ah, i getcha now
tdapenguin: thanks
TXC2: tdapenguin that's were the ropes are connected to the carabineers
TheMerricat: I think that's the failed insertion
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: Sometimes they break.
gnabaer: that is some serious toe strength
TehAmelie: failing upwards, at it were
maclaglen: OMG I can't stand up!
TXC2:
like downing in the sea in a foot of water
tdapenguin: i do appreaciate that we don't have to worry about navigating around as if the stick were solid.
CaptainSpam: I'm standing, and I can't stand up!
TheMerricat: Look, I've been there as a kid, so full of muscle fatigue that I couldn't do anything but shake on the ground
Mangledpixel: it's the Little John river scene from Robin Hood Prince of Thieves
tdapenguin: we fell sideways?
TheMerricat: Is it because that didn't count as standing on ground that our stamina hasn't replentished?
Mangledpixel: thinks he's drowning, concedes to Robin, who tells him to put his feet down, to find he's only in 2 ft of water
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: @TheMerricat No, just not good starting spots for holds
TXC2:
maybe we're a data centre?

SymphonySolstice: there's checkpoints along the way, so you just restart a section
tdapenguin: @TheMerricat the game said we re-start at where we camped overnight, afair
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: If you die, you can reload from the last save point
TXC2: TheMerricat there seems to be save points, so I assume we restart for there
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: Unless you are on free solo, then it is one and done
Coloneljesus: can you still use pitons in free solo?
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: No
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: And you have a small backpack
Coloneljesus: damn, better know your routes, then
Anubis169:
oh hey i love this game 
Anubis169: same devs as Furi
Mangledpixel: but you gotta get up to get down
tdapenguin: folks who've played this game before (or done the reading, i suppose) -- is hter more lore behind why this mountain/etc or is it just "be first human to climb big moutain (b/c is mountain climbing game)"
Coloneljesus: there's some lore
Coloneljesus: maybe not about why specifically
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: @tdapenguin There is more lore stuff, but a big thing is the first person to climb Kami
tdapenguin: okay, thanks
CrossXhunteR: this game rips. i need to get back to it
Coloneljesus: wall: climbed
Coloneljesus: @CrossXhunteR same. I stopped very short of the summit
tdapenguin: heyya, we gotta go read that buliten board!
CrossXhunteR: the mantling leaves a bit to be desired, as just experienced
Anubis169: Why do we climb something?
Anubis169:
Because it's there 
tdapenguin: thanks for the clarification, paul
CaptainSpam: I figure this character is climbing this mountain because it's there.
Coloneljesus: @Anubis169 because of character traits
Mangledpixel: Captain Paul is climbing a mountain; Why is he climbing a mountain?
Anubis169:
CaptainSpam: Oh, also we have a magical robot friend.
tdapenguin: kami biiiiiiiig
Anubis169: lefuckthat
Coloneljesus: tutorial done!
SpruceZeus: the demo for this fuckin ruled and ive spent every minute since it came out being sad i cant afford it lmfao
TXC2: that was the training? dang
gsyhiap: They're also used to mark paths or the summit of an ascent
niccus: and now we learn about mortality
Coloneljesus: go up simulator 2026
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: Yeah, that is part of the reason why there is no story
TehAmelie: it's traditional to leave a rock at the peak of a mountain you climb, that turns into a cairn after multiple climbers
TheAinMAP: Now the game truly begins.
Anubis169: that's cool
tdapenguin: oooh, will we have space?
CaptainSpam: Two? Luxury.
TheMerricat: Wow, she's died 159 times at this.

TXC2: very "Dewey Wins" of the Newspaper
TheMerricat: Look, they've had 158 attempts to learn the pattern. They basically know now.
tdapenguin: i read it as 'another solo attempt was in progress, that person died' and then 'picture of us, who will also attempt'
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: @tdapenguin Pretty sure that is the intention
TXC2: snaaaaaaake ooooooh it's a snake!
TehAmelie: are there cliff bears?
CaptainSpam: Watch out for snakes!
Coloneljesus: yeah, you get many grindr matches here
Invitare: I'd have thought the snakes would get cold
SymphonySolstice: bear at the peak of kami got all 158 of them
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: @TehAmelie spoiler, there are cliff bears
TheMerricat:
I have to wonder about snakes hanging off mountains at altitudes high enough to require 'winter weather' gear.
Anubis169: Seen somebody use one of those from video footage climbing up that sheer face on the Eiger
tdapenguin: surely, there's dropbears? but ih've heard you can avoid them if you are rapelling and can swing wide enough
Anubis169: would be so worried about it giving way x_x
dumbo3k: oh wow, that bot can pack up the tent? that is super useful, since I can't even imagine packing a tent from a cliffside
TehAmelie: picturing bears with goat climbing abilities
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: The kites just tells you where the rest spots are.
TXC2: Anubis169 right?
CaptainSpam: Maybe they give you free height for clearing the tutorial?
TheMerricat:
@dumbo3k I can't imagine pitching it.
Coloneljesus: now I wonder if there's somethign if you climb down from here
tdapenguin: @TheMerricat they wear warm clothing made from dropbear hides/furs
CrossXhunteR: i definitely had to change up two of the fiddly bobs with this game, changing how the independent limb selector worked and giving me an indicator on a good limb placement
anclag: I missed it…was the tent already there?
Anubis169: i think she made it
Anubis169: but we started there
Coloneljesus: @anclag from the cutscene, ye
TXC2: anclag we started in the tent
Juliamon: the game just started us there
Invitare: taller than you
tdapenguin: @anclag implication is the tent is in our backpack and our bot friend pitched it for us.
Barb4rian:
That alpenglow 
Coloneljesus: @Barb4rian this game looks gorgeous when you're not looking at a wall
TXC2: cue the Simpsons "murderhorn" gif
anclag: ah okay…I was wondering how many tents she was carrying if we’re just leaving it behind
Anubis169: anybody who thinks a minute isn't a long time has never had to do a plank
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: @anclag She told the bot to pack it up for us
Mangledpixel: I could jump higher than that mountain, though to be fair that's mostly because mountains can't jump
tdapenguin: @anclag she asked the bot to strike the tent (and then presumably store it?)
tdapenguin:
@Mangledpixel Sometimes the ambiguity in English is fun!
dumbo3k: yknow, this game has made me really glad I'm not a climber
termi385: @dumbo3k coincidentally it also has made me real glad I am (:
Mangledpixel: @tdapenguin English is complex, it can be understood through tough thorough thought, though
Coloneljesus: damn

TXC2: oh dear
tdapenguin: oopse doopsies
dumbo3k: that was definitely a snapped spine
Barb4rian: Increment the counter
niccus: mountains will kill you dead
CaptainSpam: Someone at the newspaper erases the number and updates it to 160.
TehAmelie: that piton was really stuck in there, at least we know those things won't get loose
SymphonySolstice: just a dislocation we're fine
Coloneljesus: you'll get better at it
dumbo3k: at least that time you didn't die
TehAmelie: we put everything in constitution and agility, not so much strength
tdapenguin: is the alcove useful?
TXC2: "ah yes, zoofuth"
dumbo3k: oh, there is a little cairn in the window, I guess to represent previous climbers getting there
Coloneljesus: I've only been bouldering a single time but it's helped me a lot in understanding some of the mechanics in this
SymphonySolstice: might need another piton at that point
Wolfstrike_NL: Look at Paul, going all the way out to get those chievos with such intend!
tdapenguin: ooh, we have bloodspots on our bandages
Coloneljesus: yeah, pitons are mostly reusable if you don't fail the quick time event, so little reason not to use them
TehAmelie: falling 15 meters without taking damage is p. impressive
TehAmelie: at least we don't have QWOP controls xD
tdapenguin: i have questions about where her centre of mass is versus how she's manuevering, especially on the rest breaks
CrossXhunteR: oh, because you died and reset you no longer have a broken piton
Boopity: I feel like QWOP legs are actually quite desirable in this situation
Coloneljesus: @tdapenguin ye I also feel limb extension has a lot of impact on excertion
tdapenguin: @Coloneljesus yeah, that too
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: The save was before it broke
TXC2:
I feel like there's a way to combine "her legs go all the way up" and "QWOP"
tdapenguin: otoh, i don't think asking to make the game more difficult is a good idea
CrossXhunteR: i saw a video of this game where someone turned on a bunch of debug stuff to show how the game deals with forces and stamina per limb. it was really neat
CrossXhunteR: that resting feeling happened to me so often
TehAmelie: a sign of a good simulator i think
Coloneljesus:
also, she gets angry at the same times as the player
Barb4rian: Climbing sim?
Boopity: If anything, it's a lack-of-platforms game
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: I saw it listed as adventure simulator
CrossXhunteR: late title card
SymphonySolstice: title drop!
CaptainSpam: We have title drop!
TehAmelie: now the game. . .truly begins

Barb4rian: This music is bangin. I think I need to get this finally
niccus: why does murder mountain, the mountain that murders people, not simply murder you
CrossXhunteR: does the climb bot also double as a boombox
termi385: @niccus og it did already
Coloneljesus: @niccus indominable human spirit
Wolfstrike_NL: "We're going up, up, up..."

AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: It is Baby Steps if the steps are less baby.
CrossXhunteR: playing this game, i have now watched too many climbing-adjacent youtube videos and my youtube algo is all fucked
niccus: adult steps
TehAmelie: ooh, someone made a camp for us?
Boopity:
This part is quite chill
tdapenguin: @CrossXhunteR is your algo borked or is it better?
Coloneljesus: coop mode? one player plays the bot?
TXC2: CrossXhunteR Magnus Mitbo all the way down?
tdapenguin: can we look at the bulliten board?
TehAmelie: where you can just spider up the walls and enjoy the scenery, i'd play that
Invitare: oh the locals climb it all the time
termi385: I mean all mountains have been climbed to some height
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: At least 159 people have been here before
Coloneljesus: @Invitare not sure we know about those yet
Thefluffiestguineapig: What if this is my dream?
TXC2: Climb every mountain to the tune of I'm every woman
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: It is telling you what all the bonuses you can get are.
termi385: this is still the height that was touristically viable
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: right button.
TXC2: fun story: you don't have muscles in your fingers or thumbs
Thefluffiestguineapig: No, all tigers are good at climbing
TehAmelie: i think tigers are more famous for leaping
TheMerricat:
I don't know if white tigers are better at climbing or not, but I know they can't jump....
CrossXhunteR: i vaguely know this word because of Pipistrello and the Cursed Yoyo
Thefluffiestguineapig: Jaguars are best at climbing
anclag: @TXC2 you don’t know me!
CrossXhunteR: a large hill
Serpens77: Mountain't
niccus: i can die at any hill
Coloneljesus: kinda setting unrealistic mountain standards
TehAmelie: you can fall off a mountain anywhere, except in Denmark
maclaglen: Ladders are Mountains! Paul confirms it!
CrossXhunteR: leave only memories
Coloneljesus: @CrossXhunteR chalk marks
SymphonySolstice: there's a skii hill here that calls itself a mountain and I'm always offended by it. this is saskatchewan you can't call anything a mountain here
TXC2: the small step at the end of the garden path is a mountain now
CrossXhunteR: is "1m80" acceptable height notation?
Marvoleath:
Coloneljesus: ya
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: yes
LordZarano: Ah yes, milk the wild goat, I'm sure that will go well
Marvoleath: @CrossXhunteR 1,80m is more common for sure
Coloneljesus: @LordZarano it will, and there's apparently no male goats
ScrapyardGhostTrain:
If the Nope boys have touched it, it's probably the controller.
TehAmelie: it works as there's only one reasonable way to read it
Marvoleath:
1m80 seems like something French would do though
CaptainSpam: Why do I get the feeling something will happen if you keep the camera all the way to the top?
TehAmelie: 180 cm, tall for a lady
Coloneljesus: french would add more spaces "1 m 80 "
TXC2: TehAmelie tall for any gender IMO
Mangledpixel:
bear bear bear beeearrrrrr 
TehAmelie: *tugs collar in 197*
CrossXhunteR: punch the bear in the nose
TehAmelie: 187, even
TehAmelie: i'm not that giant
TXC2:
TehAmelie yeah, 197 would have you in the WNBA
Mangledpixel: is there any burdock?
Coloneljesus: you can cook without a recipe
CrossXhunteR: soup there it is
dumbo3k: @TehAmelie This is the internet, you can be as giant as you want, who will be able to tell you otherwise?
Invitare: dandelion soup is probably a thing
CrossXhunteR: dandelion omelette?
TXC2: "it's hot and ready" "is it good?" "it's HOT, and it's READY"
LordZarano: Equipment: Egg
Coloneljesus: @TXC2 same energy as "it's free and it's easy"
tdapenguin: hmmm, no birds mentioned as wildlife. might have to wait to get back to our girlfriend to get eggs
Mangledpixel: "Still got all my fingers, good."
TehAmelie: how about our feet? they look sort of bloody
Coloneljesus: maybe you'll find a camera repair shop up here somewhere
SymphonySolstice: @tdapenguin the lammergeiers will clean us up if we die on the mountain
CrossXhunteR: wear climbing shoes. don't be weird
Coloneljesus: gotta have that mummy look
CrossXhunteR: hey, some water
Barb4rian: Water just there
Coloneljesus: no empty container anyway
Barb4rian: back about 30 seconds
tdapenguin: bar fight with a bear?
SymphonySolstice: you mean bear fight
CrossXhunteR: boo
Coloneljesus: good joke streamer
tdapenguin: probably has a good view?
Mangledpixel: only one way to find out!
CrossXhunteR: that's where the Charge Beam is
TehAmelie: it looks like the kind of place that would have something cool
tdapenguin: view might help with planning?
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: There is hidden things along certain paths.
Marvoleath: The cool thing up there would be being up there
Invitare: isn't all mountain climbing about going somewhere you don't have to to see if there's something cool?
Coloneljesus: hey, worst thing that could happen is you die
LordZarano: Some people do prefer wraps to climbing gloves
TehAmelie: i thought we might need all the space in our backpack for treasure or something, but cleaning up mountain garbage is pretty good
Mathwyn: Paul VS Mountain, this Monday at the Cliffside Arena!
LRRbot:
If you see something funny or particularly noteworthy, make a Clip of it! Your clip could appear in a fortnightly video or be seen at https://www.twitch.tv/loadingreadyrun/clips (Please give your clips descriptive names if you want them to be seen!)
Coloneljesus: darn
Strebenherz: Down we go
tdapenguin: oooooh nooooooo
SymphonySolstice: byeee
TheAinMAP:
Barb4rian: GG
Juliamon: camera what
KaleidoscopeMind: rip
TXC2: oh we turbo dead
Angnor33: Hmmm.
Barb4rian:
RatherLargeToad: just walk it off
TehAmelie: the camera right up our butt, so undignified
anclag: it turns out that what was at the top of the spire was a big drop
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: Didn't clip in yet
Coloneljesus: @anclag we have to slay it
tdapenguin: save point
tdapenguin: i wonder if this is a 'try it and die it' place
TehAmelie: maybe even a little too close
termi385: maybe you as the player could position her foot more accurately to help her?
CrossXhunteR: bouldering?
TXC2: big stone butte ?
tdapenguin: oh nooooooooo
TehAmelie: a butt is the natural form of buttress, right?
CrossXhunteR: piton early, piton often
Serpens77: piton, pitoff
LordZarano: Have to take a hand off the wall to piton
Coloneljesus:
gotta piton when the grip is still secure
Coloneljesus: we're learning a lot about Paul's risk appetite today
Thefluffiestguineapig: Yeah, when your arm is actively shaking it miiiiiiight be too late
CrossXhunteR: it's so satisfying when you start getting up a wall quickly
Mangledpixel: he's learning!
Barb4rian: ^
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Coloneljesus This is a man who played Hades 1, 2, HK and Silksong
CrossXhunteR: unless you break all of them while trying to insert
Coloneljesus: @Thefluffiestguineapig tbh there's not a lot in those games you can do to minimize risk
tdapenguin: was that a surprised-we're-not-dead yelp?
TXC2: sounded more defeated to me
Mathwyn: @tdapenguin there are other kinds?
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Coloneljesus But the appetite for risk to play them in the first place. Although there are ways to push your luck in those games and ways to be safer
TheMerricat: @LoadingReadyRun so just to set expectations, according to the internet you pick up both more pitons and the resources to make more. So yes, outside messing up a QTE and ruining them all, there doesn't seem to be any reason not to piton whenever you think it's useful.
GapFiller: jsut gonna clip straight thru that rock there
Thefluffiestguineapig: Wait, what is the little friend? I missed the start of the stream, is it just supplies that climb behind us
GapFiller: Thefluffiestguineapig we have a robot dont worry abt it
Coloneljesus: it's climbbot 1.0
TXC2: that's climbbot, they help
Juliamon: Climbbot does the busywork
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: They are the ones holding the rope
Thefluffiestguineapig: DAMN being able to do vertical crack grip like that at all is impressive
Coloneljesus: the overhang might actually be viable. it has plenty of grips
tdapenguin: @Thefluffiestguineapig that is climbbot! i think we made him? he helps with some chores (including gathering pitons, serving as our belay anchor, and striking & pitching our tent)
Thefluffiestguineapig: And now we're free climbing
TehAmelie: can we overhang? only one way to know
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: @tdapenguin I'm pretty sure it is a commercial product in this world
LordZarano: It's also a phone apparently
tdapenguin: also climbbot can compost trash and produce chalk
TheMerricat: @tdapenguin I don't know if we made him, but we definitely picked him out. The descrip blurb Paul got when he was examining the bot said that it's one of the earliest and most basic of the models.
Coloneljesus: a true engineering marvel
CaptainSpam: This better be the best darn burger we've ever had.
TXC2: we go because it's there
Mangledpixel: climbbot is a useful way for the game to abstract away a bunch of stuff. also, it's cute.
tdapenguin: @AMillionCatsOnTypewriters i had thought so too, but one of the cut scenes make me think differently. but i can't recall the verbiage right now.
Thefluffiestguineapig: I do love climbbot
TheMerricat:
@Mangledpixel Oh now you've done it. Now we know climbbot's going to die before the game is over.. it's cute.
Coloneljesus: our hands will be so fucked after this
Coloneljesus: smart
tdapenguin: @Mangledpixel i do like how climbbot is hanging a lantern on things
Coloneljesus: imperfect pitons will still hold perfectly. they are just more likely to break. so no need to redo one
Thefluffiestguineapig: Crack climbing is MEGA hard
Marvoleath: "Twisted!" sounds like a positive, like "sick!" in a skateboard game
Thefluffiestguineapig: it makes sense to me it is immediately exhausting
TheMerricat:
Mountain Goats are awed.
LordZarano: Wide Boyz would be proud, climbing a crack
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: So you would say she knows what to do with a crack?
Thefluffiestguineapig: From the one time I tried it the grip relies entirely on your forearms and your weight is on your fingertips and toes. A lot of super talented rock climbers can't do it
Mathwyn: Talented rockclimber being piloted by someone who uh.... isn't
TheMerricat:
That's not a burger chat.
SymphonySolstice: cool view
Thefluffiestguineapig: Are we, as a stream taking the short break while she takes her break?
cbpickl: theres a cool feature in the settings "show hold feedback" that i really recommend, made the game way more enjoyable for me
TXC2:
and now the map is filled in
Ned_Flandalorian: she would definitely be a formidable twister opponent
lightfut: Surely there is nowhere higher to climb
cbpickl: shows you when you get a solid foothold
tdapenguin: done, we've summited!
TheMerricat:
@Ned_Flandalorian If only she weren't horribly antisocial...
Coloneljesus: and now we get to abseil!
jessicaengle: Hello peoples.
cbpickl: and you can "undo" a hold grab if it isnt a good hold
TXC2: hello jessicaengle welcome
tdapenguin: time to gather up other people's trash and go back down. we'll be eating an omelet in no time!
jessicaengle:
TehAmelie: score!
Coloneljesus: yummy
Mangledpixel:
lentils and 
Thefluffiestguineapig: That is in no way ominous
TheAinMAP:
Mathwyn: Lentils and Ham, together at last
Akaiatana: That was the backpack of a has-bean
tdapenguin: @jessicaengle hi! we are climbing a deadly mountain. and sommat anti-social
Thefluffiestguineapig:
TheMerricat:
Here's where the game gives us the middle finger and shows us the easy path up via the way down.
Coloneljesus: @Akaiatana very good
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: @TheMerricat The way he started was the only way up.
Juliamon: !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!
Thefluffiestguineapig: Is this possibly the wonky controller?
TXC2: !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!
7gorobei: should the wonky controller be labeled?
tdapenguin: @Thefluffiestguineapig mountain goat fact?
TXC2: right chat I'm off
tdapenguin: night, @TXC2 !!
TXC2: Goodnight everybody, aand thanks for streaming Paul
TheMerricat: Night @TXC2 !
TehAmelie: goodbye
TheMerricat:
So chat... if you were a mountain climber in this universe. Would you trust a recycled piton?
tdapenguin: @TheMerricat climbbot seems to be pretty trustworthy and also able to do magic with physics, so: yes!
TehAmelie: sure, they seem completely immovable
Thefluffiestguineapig: @tdapenguin Himalayan mountain goats (the ones that outrun snow leopards by running pellmell down sheer cliffs like mad lads) balance completely on the equivalent of finger tips
tdapenguin: @Thefluffiestguineapig now i want to be a himalayan mountan goat in my next life.
TheMerricat: Mountain Goat fact: "Mountain goats (Oreamnos americanus) are not true goats; they are actually in the Bovidae family, making them more closely related to antelope, gazelles, and chamois. While true goats belong to the genus Capra, mountain goats belong to the genus Oreamnos and are considered a unique species often called "goat-antelopes"."
Thefluffiestguineapig: Those same absolute gravity defying weirdos can functionally walk STRAIGHT UP sheer cliffs
tdapenguin: @TheMerricat neat, i had no idea!
tdapenguin: @Thefluffiestguineapig yeah, they sound delightful
jessicaengle:
Thefluffiestguineapig: @tdapenguin Eh, yes and no. They look like they ignore so many laws of gravity and the reason they have such a small focal point is so they can find teeny foot holds. But they need that to not get solo-ed by a snow leopard
Thefluffiestguineapig: If you go back to the original Planet Earth footage they have some of the first ever video of a snow leopard hunt EVER and it's WILD to watch because it's just down a cliff face/mountain side
Coloneljesus: ye
tdapenguin: @Thefluffiestguineapig evolution is wild and adaptations are so great
tdapenguin: @TheMerricat haha, yes
tdapenguin: @Thefluffiestguineapig assuming that made it to release, i should go dig my hand-me-down planet earth dvds.....
Thefluffiestguineapig: @tdapenguin The adaptations evolution has forced are bananas. Those same goats have mating butting head ON CLIFF FACES
Coloneljesus: new Paul's unstoppable
Thefluffiestguineapig: That's a very funny comic and yes the link works
Coloneljesus: now*
jessicaengle: Paul is in control
accountmadeforants: Is the new controller DK Bongos?
Thefluffiestguineapig: Paul took off the training weights
TheMerricat: Ghost tree!
Coloneljesus: low density trees
TheAinMAP:
Thefluffiestguineapig: Also Paul you enabling the Nope Bois is both terrible and awesome in the Romantic period sense
Thefluffiestguineapig: The notifier
Coloneljesus: square = good?
cbpickl: yeah you want holds that give you the white square, yep
accountmadeforants: This hole was made for you
jessicaengle: secret tunnel!
cbpickl: she has almost infinite stam if you have all good holds
tdapenguin: secret tunnel!
Thefluffiestguineapig: What if we go up the wall?
Thefluffiestguineapig: @tdapenguin Cue Last Airbender
accountmadeforants: Dang
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: That is a lot of honey
jessicaengle: Bee careful
SymphonySolstice: yknow it's kind of a dick move to go through all the effort of setting up a trap in a remote cave
accountmadeforants: Love the bee drawing
TheAinMAP:
Thefluffiestguineapig: Is the trap just ALL THE BEES
LordZarano:
7gorobei: are we going to fight winnie the pooh?
Thefluffiestguineapig: Are we going to get crunk on mead?
jessicaengle: take a bee nap?
accountmadeforants: Yeah but what if this man wants to hoard honey like some kinda bee dragon
jessicaengle: Relaxing nap surrounded by bees
Mangledpixel: "it's not healthy, particularly for your teeth"
accountmadeforants: That's goals tbh
Coloneljesus: maybe WE are the bear
maclaglen: Honey thieves
Kata_The_Cat: The beekeepers named each queen? Nice.
RedAlexxis: oh bother
LordZarano: Eating nothing but honey? Sounds like James in Minecraft

AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: Now you can make super honey
SymphonySolstice: wet rock not advisable to climb
jessicaengle: It's not healthy outside, quick hide in the cave
Thefluffiestguineapig: If this is anything like other recent climbing stamina mechanics (and also IRL) raining makes climbing harder
Kata_The_Cat: Well, this is already less punishing than Breath of the Wild.
accountmadeforants: Comedy
xantos69: choked on the home stretch.
Coloneljesus: cairn giveth and cairn taketh away (mostly the latter)
Mangledpixel: turns out, you haven't made it until you've FULLY made it
Thefluffiestguineapig: Turns out you haven't made it till you are on top of the new platform
Mangledpixel: is that fire down there?
Mangledpixel: or lights?
Thefluffiestguineapig: Also hi Mangledpizel!
Coloneljesus: @Mangledpixel it's a village
Mangledpixel: @Coloneljesus ah cool
Thefluffiestguineapig: Well I can't type today
Mangledpixel: and hi Thefluffiestguineapig
Coloneljesus: will you eat the slop?
accountmadeforants: Turns out, not that sickening
Thefluffiestguineapig: Is that minus 5 health?
Mangledpixel: yes, reject the slop!
Coloneljesus: -5 water
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: @Thefluffiestguineapig Yes
Coloneljesus: oh nvm

TehAmelie: i want a button to shake your backpack. . .
TehAmelie: oh, there is
Coloneljesus:
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: Shaking the backpack is fun
TehAmelie: the best version of tetris
Thefluffiestguineapig: Do you have a broken camera and broken pitons?
TheMerricat:
I love this tells us so much about Aava that we don't have an 'inventory management' setup as much as "shake the bag and hope that knocks stuff loose enough you can fit more in.
niccus: so what's Free Solo like?
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: @niccus Hard
Coloneljesus: yeah
cbpickl: left trigger + up
Thefluffiestguineapig: Did she break the camera on purpose?
Coloneljesus: @Thefluffiestguineapig that's what's heavily implied, yeah
TheMerricat:
@Thefluffiestguineapig She didn't not break the camera on purpose.
cbpickl:
love that sound effect that light makes
loufghyslaufey: Very Wheatley speech impedenmenting
CaptainSpam: Oh hey, that's much better.
loufghyslaufey: Welp
loufghyslaufey: What would it take to roast a bear for winter, Chat?
Coloneljesus: a fire
Thefluffiestguineapig: @loufghyslaufey That's a specific UK regional accent
accountmadeforants: @loufghyslaufey Morally or logistically? What state does the bear start in?
Coloneljesus: or do you mean like insult the bear with in-jokes?
cbpickl: yeah im surprised its not enabled by default, its completely bewildering what causes her to lose stam fast when its off
CrossXhunteR: ayy, he turned on the squares for solid holds. those things improved my experience greatly
Coloneljesus: @cbpickl probably cause of immersion
cbpickl: yeah it makes it more "gamey"
Coloneljesus: Paul "Never Pitons" Saunders
TehAmelie: Adam!
Thefluffiestguineapig: That robot is doing Cirque du Soleil right now
loufghyslaufey:
@accountmadeforants Surprised, really! Cuz the bear is the last thing to expect itself to become a meal 
PhuzNutz: Adam is kind of a beast, proven
niccus: guess it's baby steps after all
loufghyslaufey: A rather surprised state
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: Just wait until you run into the person stuck in a jar later in the game...
accountmadeforants: @loufghyslaufey Ah, so starting still alive, that complicates things.
Brozard: just waiting for a creeper to show up and blow up
Coloneljesus: Bayou-vac?
Juliamon: Ours is orange. This one is blue.
CrossXhunteR: this game really wants you to know "people die climbing", it seems
Mangledpixel: for reference, a Cairn is one of those piles of rocks
Juliamon: Not even gonna scavenge for parts??
CrossXhunteR: that would be rude
Coloneljesus: and defile a corpse??
Juliamon: There is no 'rude' in survival
CrossXhunteR: need water too
accountmadeforants: @CrossXhunteR Seems like due diligence when you make climbing look cool and/or easy.
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: Need to find some water and gentian.
Coloneljesus: calories are calories
Juliamon: Cooking ham in cola is legit
Juliamon: Lentils, maybe not
accountmadeforants: Not sure about lentils and cola, but ham and cola can work really well
TehAmelie: i think i shall make chili with cola tomorrow
accountmadeforants: Yeah, what Juliamon said
Coloneljesus: better find some water
PhuzNutz: Honestly, after a day of climbing, that would be a hella dope meal
accountmadeforants: Our hand modelling career is still in the cards!
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: @CaptainSpam to make chalk. Don't ask.
niccus: it's a very hungry compost bin.
ErynTzun:
tdapenguin: just how firm is the bottom of our tent that we can do crunches in it?
Coloneljesus: helps that we aren't hanging right now
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: You always need one liquid and one solid.

Coloneljesus: hey raiders!
travis_approved: Hellooo
dutchmoose: hut hut hut
tdapenguin: @PhuzNutz yeah, i decided that that was too incomprehensable to ask
Coloneljesus: getting a lot of bear vibes from this
Mathwyn: Bears putting up human-proof boxes
PhuzNutz: @tdapenguin LULZ, yeah. The real impressive thing is going no. 2 up on the wall and not make a mess
tdapenguin: @PhuzNutz yeah, i noticed that they gracefully declined to comment on bodily escretions
Coloneljesus: the mess would be far below, so whatever
poohshoes: I loved this game but I found the jank very frustrating. The game tells you to play with a gamepad but I want I do wonder if Mouse would be better.
SymphonySolstice: that was garbage cans, yeah
SymphonySolstice: I remember that one
tdapenguin: bears are smarter than the average tourist. which makes bear-proofing difficult
maclaglen: There is a large overlap between the smartest bear and the dumbest human.
Mazrae: Locally source some bear testers?
Thefluffiestguineapig: Because the overlap because what the smartest bear can open and what the dumbest human can open is quite large the Yellowstone ranger was quoted as saying
TehAmelie: i remember Firewatch telling us they found it difficult to make a perfect cache box due to the overlap between the dumbest campers and the smartest bears
SymphonySolstice: ^ bear testing
PhuzNutz: @Coloneljesus If you have crap ethics, pun intended (:
Driosenth: The degree for which for "protection from the smartest bear" and "functional by thee dumbest human" is very small
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Mazrae No the rangers at Yellowstone who were trying to make bear proof trashcans but people couldn’t figure them out
Thefluffiestguineapig: @Driosenth And often not financially feasible
SymphonySolstice:
tdapenguin: uh-oh, crashed something
PhuzNutz: All of northern Califaornia too. There was a hug overlap of smartest bears and dumbest people. Pretty sad considering there are pictorial directions on the trashcans
Thefluffiestguineapig: But the absolute just “really” face some rangers were giving is amazing
Coloneljesus:
wonder where that came from
Thefluffiestguineapig: O R B
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: @Coloneljesus Somewhere higher up for sure
HadesLeprechaun: so is this sort of Baby Steps/Jusant/Death Stranding?
SymphonySolstice: yea
niccus: by the Furi devs, yeah
Coloneljesus: mostly Jusant
Coloneljesus: but better IMO
Juliamon: 'better' depends on what you want out of the game
Thefluffiestguineapig: People sometimes forget just how STRONG a fucking bear is too. so a smart bear can reason out the weak point of your design and physically manhandle the object into the best position for cracking open
tdapenguin: @Thefluffiestguineapig do not argue with a bear
SymphonySolstice: rip
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: That is not
theblakdeth: in Soviet Russia, Mountain climbs YOU
garfacemcgar: don't give up, skeleton
accountmadeforants: @Thefluffiestguineapig I'm kind of curious that they were like, because I'm thinking the easiest step is to just make a slot where a human hand or entire arm can fit in to unlock a latch, while a bear's paw couldn't. (Bonus points if the mechanism inside only works with true opposable thumbs.)
Thefluffiestguineapig: So with dumb human debuff it often just becomes a massive design challenge
tdapenguin: @accountmadeforants remember, bears = strong + claws, so they can rip stuff real well
Coloneljesus: there's an overlay in the overview view
Coloneljesus: if you have a map
Thefluffiestguineapig: @accountmadeforants The dumbest human thing comes in here. where the dumbest humans can’t figure out the things that were the most reliably bear proof
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: You will be able to use it when it comes up
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: Gondola
tdapenguin: is that old belaying rope on the ground?
accountmadeforants: @Thefluffiestguineapig Yeah that's fair
Thefluffiestguineapig: Can we steal rope off the ground?
Coloneljesus: there's a rope length limit
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: You only have so much rope.
LRRbot:
If you see something funny or particularly noteworthy, make a Clip of it! Your clip could appear in a fortnightly video or be seen at https://www.twitch.tv/loadingreadyrun/clips (Please give your clips descriptive names if you want them to be seen!)
Coloneljesus: but I think there's a wait mechanic?
Coloneljesus: nah you're good to go
accountmadeforants: @accountmadeforants I'm now also thinking that anything relying on a latch also relies on the (potentially very dumb) human closing it back up
cbpickl: yeah its either good or its not
TehAmelie: i'd have thought the squares show a perfect grip and there's degrees below that
SymphonySolstice: oof owie
Coloneljesus: well, now you're back at camp like you wanted
Boopity: WE'RE FINE
Thefluffiestguineapig: @accountmadeforants Now you’re getting why the Yellowstone rangers were so flummoxed and why this is such a hard design challenge. The dumbest humans often won’t look at pictograms and require “ease of use”
loufghyslaufey: Yikes
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: Not dead yet
accountmadeforants: Hopefully our hands are still in excellent condition
TehAmelie:
9/10th dead: " 
you mountain"
Thefluffiestguineapig:
UUUHH 
?
electric_claire: When I played the demo it felt like you could put your feet/hands basically anywhere as long as you kept most of your limbs relatively straight.
accountmadeforants: Yay!
SymphonySolstice: that don't look healthy
Coloneljesus: damn, those are some steel grippers
Thefluffiestguineapig: Fingers are 90% callus anyway
Coloneljesus: i actually don't know what primarily damages the fingers. is it grips? slips?
AtomicAlchemical: Amazing that your spine is still intact after that last 20 foot fall directly onto your back
TehAmelie: only the last hit point counts, right
tdapenguin: @AtomicAlchemical she's got that new airbag tech from the skislopess
Thefluffiestguineapig: Is it drugs?
Coloneljesus: but you have multiple charges, right?
SymphonySolstice: human bodies are dumb cause sometimes people fall 20m and walk away with bruises and other times someone falls off a stepstool in their house and it's joever
Coloneljesus: you can just sleep it off
tdapenguin: @SymphonySolstice i'm told our bodies made more sense back when we were tree-dwelling. .....
theblakdeth: Lynn Hill fell 30 meters into a bush rock climbing and walked out
LordZarano: If you like this, or Jusant. You should also be aware of the game Peaks of Yore, a climbing adventure set in 1887
tdapenguin: @LordZarano what mountain?
Coloneljesus: you can fill the bottle from here btw

LRRbot:
Thanks for subscribing, EJGRgunner! (Today's storm count: 15)
LordZarano: @tdapenguin The Great Gales, which I assume are fictional
Coloneljesus: @EJGRgunner congrats!
tdapenguin: @EJGRgunner you are a centurian!
Thefluffiestguineapig: 2:00am Paul
tdapenguin: @LordZarano yeah, i suppose fictional mountains give you more ability to tune the landsape to gameplay
AtomicAlchemical: @EJGRgunner congrats on the big 100!
Coloneljesus: screw the summit, we're staying right here
Thefluffiestguineapig: Congrats on the big 100!
Thefluffiestguineapig: Could you repair pitons?
Coloneljesus: press A on the baro
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: @Thefluffiestguineapig Two scraps makes one good one
Coloneljesus: nothing?
Coloneljesus: then while out, left trigger and d pad?
accountmadeforants: Had to take a few extra minutes to heal your broken bones
TehAmelie: i got out of bed at 4 pm today!
Coloneljesus: lmao
loufghyslaufey: Pardon my "Yikes". This chatacter's frustration is the mood at home, I suppose.
Mazrae: Oh my this game looks crazy, just that little part I feel like I would be stressed out
theblakdeth: she is cruxing out so hard on he easiest sections lol
tdapenguin: @Mazrae and that's why i'm letting paul play
Marvoleath:
treasure behind waterfall? 
tdapenguin: @Marvoleath probably mostly more slipry rocks
Mazrae: This feels like extreme peak
Stephan_Kobalt_Nordstern: go to the corps
calculated_uncertainties: how dare they ignore video game protocol?
AtomicAlchemical: Behind the waterfall is... rock
Stephan_Kobalt_Nordstern: there is asap
Stephan_Kobalt_Nordstern: map
tdapenguin: @Stephan_Kobalt_Nordstern we saw the note on the previous attempt
Coloneljesus: we're been ther eand then fell
Coloneljesus: wow, my spelling leaves a lot to be desired
accountmadeforants: Petting the dogs and treasure behind waterfall
Coloneljesus: petting the dogs is pretty new in comparison
Blinkey17: all secrets need to have waterfalls put in front of them
tdapenguin: @accountmadeforants and robots and other such pettable instances.
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: My stance is there needs to be at least one secret behind a waterfall, but not everyone.
Pharmacistjudge: she is chasing waterfalls
Boopity: Finally a protagonist that matches my salty rage
couchboyj: Behind every waterfall, or just some of them?
Mazrae: But where behind the waterfall should the secret be? Bottom, middle or top
TehAmelie: after falling on her head too
Coloneljesus: bottom
SquareDotCube: to be fair TOTK did go a bit overboard with entire cave systems behind waterfalls
theblakdeth: ia there a lore reason why she doesnt have shoes?
Coloneljesus: TOTK was actually the only game to do this right
LordZarano: The Can You Pet the Dog? guy started a new account. Is Something Behind the Waterfall?
tdapenguin: @theblakdeth not afaik
Coloneljesus: @theblakdeth she likes the mummy look apparently
TehAmelie: Planetcrafter also missed on waterfalls with secrets, but to be fair they wouldn't be hidden secrets until after you terraform waterfalls
Marvoleath: @theblakdeth gotta have that grip with toes
Coloneljesus: do you think in the far future, terraformers will put easter eggs on planets?
TehAmelie: i would
accountmadeforants: Piton, pitoff
tdapenguin: @Coloneljesus tbf, planets already have lots of neat and amazing and surprising things on them
Coloneljesus: sure but none of them are references to dark souls
SymphonySolstice: monty piton and the holy cairn
garfacemcgar: @Coloneljesus slartibartfast's signature on the glaciers?
SymphonySolstice: grippers of steel
theblakdeth: when in doubt, run it out
tdapenguin: belay?
AtomicAlchemical: I just assume anyone who can free climb cliff faces is made of steel
tdapenguin: i thought we did get clipped in?
theblakdeth: quoi
Coloneljesus: "this is gonna be tricky" - does not piton
Coloneljesus:
not when you said that and still had a good grip
Coloneljesus: well, cause you fell
Invitare: serious contorsions
SymphonySolstice: leg do not move like that methinks
theblakdeth: what is happening with that rope
Coloneljesus: rope physics are hard
Boopity: Physics are hard
TehAmelie: Aava has ball bearing hips
Coloneljesus: @TehAmelie VERY different from child bearing hips
TehAmelie: quite

Boopity: Unless your child is extraordinarily spherical
Coloneljesus: the physicist's idealized child
theblakdeth: as a rock climber, there is no such thing sa a waste of chalk
haberley: imagine a spherical frictionless baby...
TehAmelie: every mother's dream
TehAmelie: at least for the child bearing part
Coloneljesus: rotund offspring
Marvoleath: @Coloneljesus orbspring
Coloneljesus: nice
Coloneljesus: imperfect just means likely to break
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: It is when you are really off that it just breaks
Boopity:
I really appreciate how much yes and-ing happens in this chat on average
DoctorHutch: Sophia Eleni, I dont think Ive heard anything from this voice actor before, but before I heard words and was just heard vocalizations I thought it was Ashley johnson
tdapenguin: @Boopity me too! 'tis a delightful place, here
theblakdeth: @DoctorHutch I could hear AJ
theblakdeth: that was your old piton
Coloneljesus: oh, you didn't retrieve?
Coloneljesus: didn't know that was possible
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: It was the spot you fell from earlier while trying to piton
theblakdeth: actually most dangerous accidents happen close to the ground, and mostly on beginner terrain
e_bloc: is the speedrun for this game greater or less than 127 hours
accountmadeforants:
It's not raining anymore *for now*
e_bloc: "not now" -implying there is a good time to fall
e_bloc: drinks? yeah let's get ripped
Coloneljesus: drink warm choccy
Xed_Regulus: Set the world on fire?
e_bloc: self-immolation
tdapenguin: @theblakdeth is that because beginners are beginners, or is it because even trained folks get tired/sloppy towards the ground?
Coloneljesus: both can be true
niccus: there is a speedrun category for licking a frog
tdapenguin: @niccus ..... really?
e_bloc: those bouth sound like things that might cause you to take climbing lightly
Coloneljesus: doesn't surprise me
accountmadeforants: @niccus And in the game?
tdapenguin: can we set up our tent and then get the stove going?
SymphonySolstice: game pls
theblakdeth: beginners are not as well trained at placing ample and high quality protection, especially near the ground where the biggest risk of groundfall injury occurs. I was search and rescue at a popular climbing area in Colorado
Sethalidos: is that just shadow or is the char's feet bloody
Coloneljesus: the latter
tdapenguin: @theblakdeth gotcha. thanks for sharing
TehAmelie: it seems like the tent can hang from a piton. or maybe that's just a story mode thing
HadesLeprechaun: I actually just skimmed through a speedrun of this and it's about just over an hour, but looked notable for a speedrun in that it seemed like, just efficient climbing. Didn't really see any clips or abused bugs
Coloneljesus: only story I think
Coloneljesus: @HadesLeprechaun oh I like those kinda runs. gotta check it out
Coloneljesus: glitchfests are fun but only once
tdapenguin: @HadesLeprechaun wow. i wonder how long it took to figure out the path
tdapenguin: tape time?
theblakdeth: those are some gnarly flappers
tdapenguin: bringing the realism!
Sethalidos: flip off chat
TehAmelie: aww, our steel grippies
accountmadeforants: Healthy!
e_bloc: when do you think you'll 'wrap up' then
Coloneljesus: excellent hands milady
tdapenguin:
@e_bloc
TehAmelie: bah, i thought we'd start going through hit points first
SymphonySolstice: good effort
Marvoleath: !next
LRRbot: Next scheduled stream: Crossing the Streams (The LoadingReadyRun crew join hands (sometimes from the comfort of their homes) to play video games together! Game: Slay the Spire 2) at Mon 05:00 PM PDT (37m from now).
GapFiller: fancy revisiting this game some other time Paul
Coloneljesus: slaying TWO spires??
GapFiller: Bonus Stream amybe
e_bloc: of the times i'l blacked out, I can guarantee it was not in that position
Boopity: Slaying 💅 these spires
niccus: slay the spire: the board game: the co op: the computer game
e_bloc: its cool StS2 is multiplayer
Coloneljesus: @niccus they're doing an expansion for the board game
tdapenguin: thanks for the stream! and the chats!
e_bloc: I appreciate the stream, thanks Paul
Coloneljesus: thank you for the stream!
SymphonySolstice: thanks paul, always neat to see these games I wouldn't have known about otherwise
e_bloc: sounds realistic
RealGamerCow: I've seen multiple people get frustrated by this gbame
e_bloc: when does the nutty putty cave dlc comes out
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: It was very frustrating for me the first few hours and slowly started to understand it.
niccus: there is!
AMillionCatsOnTypewriters: There is
electric_claire: There is coop
SymphonySolstice: the beejening
Marvoleath: there is a coop up to 4 ppl in sts2
e_bloc: yeah I saw Adam play it the other day...yesterday?
e_bloc: seems cool
Invitare: can you be a Potion Seller?
accountmadeforants:
Where'd Ian get the RAM? 
SymphonySolstice: ooh a false steambox
Ashmantle:
Marvoleath: !schedule
accountmadeforants: Oh, wait, I had seen that one already. It's a whole system on a card derived from the PS5 APU

accountmadeforants: Byeee
GapFiller:
thanks for streaming Paul 
QuixoticScrivener: Hey chat, is the schedule an hour off for those who started Daylight Savings Time this weekend?
Mazrae: !next
LRRbot: Next scheduled stream: Crossing the Streams (The LoadingReadyRun crew join hands (sometimes from the comfort of their homes) to play video games together! Game: Slay the Spire 2) at Mon 05:00 PM PDT (29m from now).
QuixoticScrivener: I guess Paul just went long with the stream?
Juliamon: Paul went long yeah
Juliamon: !uptime
LRRbot: The stream has been live for 3:30:17.
GapFiller: !updog
LRRbot:
The stream has been live for 1d, 0:32:55.
tdapenguin: @QuixoticScrivener yeah, it was a "just a little bit longer" sort of thng
GapFiller: eyyy !updog still works
Juliamon: no reason for it not to
QuixoticScrivener: @tdapenguin I wasn't sure if it was different countries starting DST on different dates.
LoadingReadyRun: the schedule is a little wonky right now, yes. I suspect that it will figure itself out by tomorrow, but if it doesn't I will see if I can figure out why
Marvoleath: did BC resign from observing dst alraedy?
Juliamon: no, now they *only* observe it
Marvoleath: ah
tdapenguin: @QuixoticScrivener i'm sure that time zones will trip us up, but not this time!
Juliamon: they moved forward, and they're staying there
LoadingReadyRun: in the mean time, manually setting your timezone offset in the dropdown should fix it
accountmadeforants: The correct choice on BC's part, I wish my country decided to stick to one (or hell, they can split the difference for all I care and go half an hour in between, just stop the madness)
Juliamon: I'm also not sure LRRbot knows about the newly-permanent time, actually
Juliamon: we'll find out when the US falls back I guess
QuixoticScrivener: @Juliamon fall back? but its already in free fall
Marvoleath: Im once again working with teams around the globe, and the DST is always fun, with US now, EU in 3 weeks and Asian sites not changing at all
accountmadeforants: LRRBot's just based on the calendar, right? No reason it wouldn't work, it's all UTC+0 underneath, with whatever offset's applicable to you
calculated_uncertainties: I am not looking forward to fall when the LRR schedule is not the same.\
Juliamon: I mean whether !next will display it using PT or PST
Juliamon: because currently it displays PST/PDT
accountmadeforants: Oh, that's a good point, yeah, I misunderstood. That might require an update to whatever library's being used to do the conversion.
Juliamon: I wonder if they will get their own tz database entry
