LRRbot: Next scheduled stream: Talking Simulator (Cameron and Cori take a deeper look at the world of video games. Game: Murders on the Yangtze River) at Thu 01:00 PM PDT (13m from now).
Sethalidos: ugh it's in the 90's here
Juliamon: ooh my trans pride tee got here
TXC2: congrats
sentientwaffle_: @Sethalidos 99f here, ack
sentientwaffle_: @Juliamon oh wonderful!!
TXC2: CONTACT
Juliamon:

Juliamon: *slaps surface of river* you can fit so many murders in this bad boy
TXC2: well it's name does mean "long river"
Mathwyn: @juliamon But how many can you fit ON it?
TXC2:
and not "yellow" as I had previously thought 
iris_of_ether: I'm looking for a good opportunity to wear my Jobby the Jublin shirt
Juliamon: minorly disappointed that DFTBA uses Uline, but I guess there's not much you can do about that
Mathwyn: @iris_of_ether Job interviews, weddings, funerals. All good opportunities
iris_of_ether: @mathwyn That's how they'll know I'm Very Respectful
TXC2:
I went to a funeral in a Catholic church a few weeks back, I worried I was underdressed without a suit Jacket, I was not 
TXC2: Here we GO!
TXC2: Hello Cameron and Cori
TheMerricat:
@TXC2 That said, probably not the best time to wear the Jobby the Jublin shirt. 
iris_of_ether: Uh
Juliamon: yes, that's what everyone is talking about
TimIAm: We talkin' prehensile dong here
iris_of_ether: UH
TXC2:
you know what, No 
TheAwkes: Just like an Elgato mic arm, you can point it where you want.
Pseudonym_Ken subscribed at Tier 1. They've subscribed for 122 months, currently on a 122 month streak!
LRRbot:
Thanks for subscribing, Pseudonym_Ken! (Today's storm count: 1)
iris_of_ether: Cameron
iris_of_ether: Cameron why
Laserbeaks_Fury: Open your mind
TheMerricat: "English stage actor Leander Deeny played the body double for the frail, pre-serum "Skinny Steve Rogers" in Captain America: The First Avenger."
iris_of_ether: I had just forgotten about that tragedy
noSmokeFire: Memento Mori
groulux: America's wang is not just Florida anymore.
TimIAm: This is a real Let's Nope of a Talking Simulator
MenomeAlice: Considering how ridiculous the women's costumes are in Rivals, I'm all for floppy members of the Avengers
iris_of_ether: AhhhhhhhhAAAAHHHHHHH
TheMerricat:
@TimIAm So... Talking Sim. 
gualdhar: mining
TimIAm:
@TheMerricat very fair 
TXC2: no Jade mining anymore ?
TXC2: Crom-moly Steel yeah
TXC2: (chrom
iris_of_ether: RIP us
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: Molybdenum is also good for making lubricants and the wires used to remove broken car windscreens.
TimIAm: It's also fun to say
iris_of_ether: So super hornt Canada Day is what I'm hearing
Kentosaurus: lol
Mathwyn: Butch Ants
MenomeAlice: @Mathwyn Bants
storem_raven: Sounds better than anything that we get in America
raulghoulia: Mark
Vinewood_OG: The other one
Juliamon: it was a Different Time ™
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: I still want an interior designer to install a demon for me.
MenomeAlice: I was too British for it
Laserbeaks_Fury: These are the Daves I know, I know
JadedCynic: Scott!
patbaer: sorry, I'll always be a Bruce guy
patbaer: those monologues!
TheMerricat: Look, whatever you think is embarrassing about your celebration Canada, allow me to remind you that a pickle company withdrew from our 250th celebration because the state's booth they were at refused to remove the Confederate flag from the booth.
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 (Named clips with no autocaptions are preferred but not required!)
TXC2:
'cause you know, NOTHING big happened in China during the 20th century to shakes things up there or anything 
MenomeAlice: Leave it Cori, it's ChinaGame
TehAmelie: hello talking pals
TXC2: and you wont
gualdhar: its buildings covered over with paper, its so sad
TXC2: Hello TehAmelie welcome
iris_of_ether: Apparently it's not well attended
JadedCynic: the Great American State Fair....with the tumbleweeds...
sentientwaffle_: the 250's attendance and general vibe is so hilarious
patbaer: I'll say again- I drew bigger audiences for improv shows
gualdhar: no this one wasn't
gualdhar: this was 100% trump
iris_of_ether: Yeah, they started 10 years ago
TheMerricat: Any planning they made before that guy showed up was tossed.
JadedCynic: a 'faux-marble' portico was just WHITE PRINTER PAPER STAPLED OVER PARTICLEBOARD
TXC2:
Obama had set up a fund for it 
gualdhar: there's "America 250" which was bipartisan, and "Freedom 250" which is Trump's shit
ladyjessica: I saw a video about this
ladyjessica: recentky
Sethalidos: nah Der Pumpkin Fuhrer doesn't have the mental capacity to write on a napkin
sentientwaffle_: The smithsonian had a big thing set up to do a huge exhibit of festivals across American history that got cancelled for this lmao
storem_raven: So so there was planning for it like 10 to 20 years ago but are wonderful president didn't like the people planning it and the fact that he couldn't make a bunch of money off of it so he took it over himself and instead of the American 250 it was called the freedom 250 which is what you see now
UraharaSci: Has anyone started planning 250th anniversary of LRR?
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: This is why that sort of committee should not be filled by political appointees.
gualdhar: there's still a lot of events sponsored by the bipartisan commission
TehAmelie: the best critique i've seen compared the "fair" to a Potempkin village, but i'm not even sure who is supposed to be fooled here
niccus: will lrr outlive canada?
couchboyj: Its a picture of the guy Trump hired to do the Reflecting Pool. Seriously, have you seen this guy?
TheMerricat: You are more than half way there.
JadedCynic:
Get Penelope started on it! 
patbaer: well, there's your LRL theme for July
sentientwaffle_: LRR50: Paul becomes Prime Minister
taliesinskye: Congratulations, you are over the hill
iconicshadow89: if someone could make art of trump working a maid cafe I would appreciate it
Kentosaurus: I'm excited for when LRR's 30th coincides with Sonic
kingandcommoner: We'll be here
JadedCynic: @couchboyj he's a Dick Tracy villain!!!
gualdhar: Cam streaming from his death bed
patbaer: if you do your 50th this year, you don't have to do it in the future
fiinnnaaaaannnnnnnn: finally, real estate opportunities
TXC2: wont the big one make the island go more north?
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: @sentientwaffle_ No. Just his beard. Paul himself will be doing antarctic research.
storem_raven: There will always be llr
MenomeAlice: @couchboyj The guy who looks like he's been foiled by Batman multiple times?
iris_of_ether: All the giant seismic waves
noSmokeFire: what if we flipped the island
TXC2: just park Vancouver island next to Hawaii
LidofLoathing: he looks like Paul Bearer's somehow sketchier cousin
patbaer: He's a cartoon character for sure
patbaer: He looks like he wouldn't believe the Ghostbusters
TXC2: I assume that man smells of cigars, even though he hasn't smoked in years
TXC2: !patreon
TXC2: !store
LRRbot:
The LoadingReadyRun store has new merch! Pride tees have a new trans variant, and Jobby the Jublin has FINALLY arrived! Check it out here: https://store.loadingreadyrun.com/ and maybe buy one?
taliesinskye: It doesn't feel like a commercial unless Beej is making absurd rhymes
Wolfstrike_NL: Also, going from the discord discussion, there's hidden merch!
iconicshadow89: trying to get into A Clockwork Orange because they think it’s about Trump
taliesinskye: Wait, hidden merch?
Boopity: b o a t
TehAmelie: open up with the sharpest notes you have so the audience knows what they can expect, eh
Boopity: HUH
TheMerricat: "Click the second option on the main menu. On the new window that pops up select the second to last option. The third option (second dropdown) on the next window will let you change the language. "
Boopity:
DId not expect a puzzle already on the title screen 
taliesinskye: Thanks
TXC2: success!
Boopity:

GhostValv: got there
MenomeAlice: What's the back up....juuuuuust in case?
gualdhar: why aren't the chinese spies in canada listening when you need them
TehAmelie: ooh, Dexter at work here huh
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: Must admit, that's the situation where I go straight to the config files
UraharaSci: Someone has run out of money for murder boards and just grabbed a chair
Boopity: Oh I love the aesthetic of this intro
Bruceski: Somebody is definitely getting Death Noted
MenomeAlice: Quick, what's the Chinese for VSync On
Pteraspidomorphi: Murder? I'm in
Wolfstrike_NL: Build you dreams (BYD) for the car company
Mangledpixel: step 1: buy red string
Laserbeaks_Fury: Is this Death Note?
NojhLivic: How unfortuante
Bruceski: I hate when that happens
sentientwaffle_: @Laserbeaks_Fury I think it's Death Knife
Pteraspidomorphi: People really shouldn't leave invisible bodies on the floor
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: Must be a Tuesday. Never trust a Tuesday.
MenomeAlice: I know another game about Red Strings, but it's too rude for this channel
UraharaSci: OBJECTION! <in Chinese>
ArtDecoSunburn: So are we solving some interwar Shanghai mysteries?
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: @MenomeAlice Heh
TXC2: oh no, we're hot
NojhLivic: Oh see he's a detective. He was investigating and needed to take a nap.
TehAmelie: suspected, MAYBE
Boopity:
Cam 
TXC2: and his Rainbow sleeves
TehAmelie: you know, most fanfics have Sherlock Holmes traveling in China after he retires
Pteraspidomorphi: Our sidekick gives strong sidekick vibes
Boopity: We live in a glasses-based society
Decaped: If someone doesn't call that guy 6 eyes i will be disappointed
TehAmelie: now that i think i have no idea when this is. but all the glasses makes me think at least 1900 AD
StringCheeseRiot: Are we playing a Harry Potter murder mystery?
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: They look like smoked lenses
TXC2: TehAmelie Cori said some nebulous time in the 20th century
TehAmelie: checks out
TXC2: "who goes there?!" "YOUR MOM!"
StringCheeseRiot: Holy shit
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving considers writing a story with Conan-Doyle in some unpleasant afterlife
StringCheeseRiot: Ah yes locked inside with Sherlock Holmes
TXC2: which is funny because of lot of pre-sherlock mysteries tended to have a chinese man be the murderer
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: Nobody mention Charlie Chan. >.>
Boopity: Welp
Astramentha: i knew it
TehAmelie: how about Jackie Chain?
TXC2:
when the rice turns out to be ricin 
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: @TehAmelie Oh, Jachie's cool
ArtDecoSunburn: He was Chinese American. Usually played by Swedes.
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: The Charlie Chan Mysteries were, shall we say, of their time.
noSmokeFire: like the muppet?
ArtDecoSunburn: The character in the novel was an interesting lens into the diversity of 1930s Honolulu.
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: They were entertaining Sunday matinee movies on TV when I was larval.
ArtDecoSunburn: Cori, were you listening to Nero Wolfe?
TXC2: how does it keep unsheathing that sword AND holding onto our arms?
Thadrin46: MORNINGTON CRESCENT.
sparkywondersnail: there was a tv series of Nero Wolfe
ArtDecoSunburn: There was a great Canadian made Nero Wolfe series from the early 2000s. Stared Maury Chakyn. I reccomend.
Boopity:
@TXC2 He has a mechanized piston built into the sheath 
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: "Bassive backlog" is something of an understatement for some Radio 4 shows.
TXC2: Boopity makes as much sense as anything
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: *massive
ArtDecoSunburn: @sparkywondersnail There were several,actually. Only the 2000s one was decent.
Thadrin46: ISIHAC has only been going the fifty odd years. It was alreadyvan institution when i was kud
ArtDecoSunburn: @Thadrin46 Great game.
Thadrin46: Just a minute is another one to look at
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: @Thadrin46 Agreed
Boopity: Oh this is some good ol' dramatic murder game music
TheAwkes: The tyranny of simple people in powerful roles.
ArtDecoSunburn: The Nero Wolfe stories are interesting as they are posssibly the first example of a sliding timeline like in comic books, where the world passes on in years but the core characters do not age. Like Spider-Man, Nero Wolfe doesn't get older.
TehAmelie: i'd have to question our motives. especially why come here after the fact if we did it.
Boopity:
Yeah, why would we chill and sleep on the floor after killing a man 
kusinohki: meows
TXC2: hello kusinohki welcome
Pteraspidomorphi: Wrong side?
UraharaSci: Also the witnesses are very unusual in Ace Attorney… no Cameron, more unusual than you are thinking
TehAmelie: yeah, more accurately, why create a locked room mystery where wer're locked in with the body
Boopity: YES
Boopity: I'm so here for this
ArtDecoSunburn: I used to date a blood spatter expert. She always griped about being dragged to the county morgue to see "in interesting fresh one."
raulghoulia: he also says aint
Decaped: they're a country bumpkin officer and judge pair
ArtDecoSunburn: Didn't work for other reasons, but strangers always eagerly grilled her when they found out her line of work. She was blase about it.
Pteraspidomorphi: Good face
kusinohki: I'm half expecting mao from apothecary diaries to show up
Boopity: New drip just dropped
Pteraspidomorphi: They just took the bloodstained overcoat I think
TXC2: CSI: Peking!
ArtDecoSunburn: I missed the beginning, but this gives pleasant vibes of the Gong'an genre. Historical Chinese detective fiction from the Song, Tang, and Qing dynasties.
AugmentingPath: @ArtDecoSunburn Qing? That seems oddly late
ArtDecoSunburn: A number have been translated into English. The Judge Dee stories and the Bao Zhang stories.
kusinohki: 3 brushes are white and 1 is black/used. important??
ArtDecoSunburn: @AugmentingPath It did run 300 years. I'm more familiar with the Dee stories, which are Tang.
sentientwaffle_: @ArtDecoSunburn that's very interesting!
UraharaSci: 1896-1912 based on qinq dynasty and Sherlock Holmes
ArtDecoSunburn: This art style is quite reminiscent of the particular printing of Dee stories I read as a kid.
kusinohki: after reviewing all the evidence.... oh *bleep* I did do it!
ArtDecoSunburn: @UraharaSci This game is based in the 20s, right? I was just commenting that the Qing era lasted from the 1640s until the revolution in 1912.
TXC2: interesting that the launguage would have the job of scouting and investing have a similar root, makes sense in some ways.
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: Look, you need something to make a rice cake interesting . . .
ArtDecoSunburn: The crime-solving magistrate is a popular recurring motif in Chinese literature.
Pteraspidomorphi:

Boopity: Time to throw up like 3 times
Boopity: D:
Boopity: He _was_ in his Sherlock Holmes cosplay
SquareDotCube: wannabe Poirot
kingandcommoner: Speculation: Is he the nephew!?
Boopity: DO a flip!
Boopity: Don't tell me his hair is a wig too
kingandcommoner: What's a cam for?
TXC2:
kingandcommoner for making comedy, silly 
Decaped: and then they cut off his mustache and put a fake mustache on
Boopity: I cannot wait to see how the fake mustache becomes relevant to the case
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: @Decaped Truly dastardly!
Decaped: pls have rice crumbs stuck in the glue under the mustache
Strebenherz: Evenin y'all. Is this an okay game to join in on late, or better starting with the vod?
Juliamon: We can catch you up
TXC2: hello Strebenherz this is a murder mystery game, but should be able to catch up a bit
ArtDecoSunburn: "A mansion and interview all the guests" describes the entire genre of country house murder mystery.
Boopity: Yeah, we're in the middle of the tutorial case i.e. it's not that complicated yet
ArtDecoSunburn: You should check out Edward Gorey's parodies of Agatha Christie novels.
Boopity: I am now realizing most, if not all, beloved mystery games (at least recent) are largely indie
iris_of_ether: Honey Yo-Yo got me watching this show, ngl
Strebenherz: That honey on the yoyo scene with you lives rent free in my head. Your "YEAH THIS IS LIFE" reaction was fantastic
Boopity: I am enjoying this conversation we're having while a man is sobbing in the back
Decaped: Yeah, mainstream deduction games like Ace Atorney largely suck in comparison to modern indie ones.
Decaped: (But they're doing different things, really.)
Strebenherz: I need to watch that VOD so I have context for the honey yoyo scene, but i'm not sure if context would HELP
sentientwaffle_: "Honey yoyo" is also an immensely funny phrase
Boopity: Can we stop saying honey yo-yo as if those words were ever meant to be put together
InconsiderateHat subscribed at Tier 1. They've subscribed for 70 months!
InconsiderateHat: Uh-oh, a mystery game? Might need to buy it!
LRRbot:
Thanks for subscribing, InconsiderateHat! (Today's storm count: 2)
TXC2:
point and click games were a mistake 
Strebenherz: I watched hundreds of beavers last night and it has the same kind of vibe of utter insanity that makes sense by the end, when plot points start connecting and callbacks hit
iris_of_ether: "Sticky...honey... Okay, let's do this!" delights me
dheid1: Honey YoYo sounds like a forgotten Lupin III character
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: @TXC2 Hey, they were a step forward from dodgy texp parsers . . . *xyzzy*
iris_of_ether: Honey Booboo's mom is apparently on Cameo lol
Astramentha: she’s actually a very well adjusted zoomer now
Astramentha: I saw an interview
TXC2: Astramentha good for her then
TXC2: FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving true, but still
Astramentha: @TXC2 yeah, it made me proud of her
Strebenherz: Holmes and Watson vibes
Boopity: @Astramentha That is literally the best outcome for a person involved in a reality TV show
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: @TXC2 I'm gripped by my nostalgia for Full Throttle and Grim Fandango. Moon logic is being wilfully forgotten.
ladyjessica: or that they talk slowly.
TXC2: isn't it Okinawan people who are given southan accents in english?
iris_of_ether: The funny thing is that Kansai-ben is apparently fast and clipped. There's a different game series that chooses to give them like a Scots accent instead
Strebenherz: Yes. Texan Osaka from azumanga for example
Boopity: This soldier is so tired of life
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: Where do JRPGs derive the Welsh accents from?
Decaped: even with my american ears i can tell that soldier has a stupid accent
dheid1: LazyTown
TheMerricat:
Threshold kids. 
TXC2: the moomins?
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: @TXC2 Modern or traditional felt?
Strebenherz: Oh Cori, have you gotten your dwarf fort secret lair?
TXC2: FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving I remember the modern cartoon
iris_of_ether:
My understanding is that Swedish and Danish are mutually understandable but Swedes pretend to not be able to understand the Danes 
iris_of_ether: I am getting this super third hand, mind
TXC2: also the moomins being Polish means I have travelled dimensions, 'cause they were 10000% Swedish
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: @TXC2 I grew up with the older ones. The vibe was a bit more Nordic winter and could be pretty unsettling.
TXC2: FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving oh I'll bet
Wolfstrike_NL: sept 24
TXC2: October will happen wither we want it to or not
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: @TXC2 The Groke brings the cold as a manifestation of her grief after her children died, leaving her the last of her kind.
Sethalidos: thought Control Remedy was coming out for PC as well
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!
TXC2:
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving good lord 
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: @TXC2 Yeah, children's TV was pretty hardcore back then. Around the same time there was Chocky, written by John Wyndham of triffid fame.
TXC2: AH HA! the show was polish, the OG stories of the Moomins was Finish! all is right with the world
Sethalidos: ah it's Control Resonant, no wonder I couldn't find it
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 (Named clips with no autocaptions are preferred but not required!)
TXC2: Right chat I'm off
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: o/
TXC2: Goodnight everybody, and thanks for streaming Cori and Cameron
Strebenherz: Take care TXC2
Boopity: Have a good night TXC2
Decaped: Control Resonant is getting pretty close to a shark and ramp. The other stories felt way more contained. Hopefully this one has some handwavey circumstances.
Sethalidos: wow I remember that cartoon
Sethalidos: with Mecha Watson
Boopity: It's hilarious how the flavor text for the wardrobe literally called it a "slightly taller than a human wardrobe"
Boopity:
We're throwing Afu under the bus and pinning the murder on them 
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: Oh, I like the reticule etching on the left smoked lens
Boopity:
Minigame 
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: Sort of. The mental mapping of something you feel is a handy skill to pick up.
Boopity: Imagine if the tutorial lock was just 1 2 3 4
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: Picking is a good hobby for people who still need to be moving their hands while watching a movie.
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: Dust in the middle of the cord? Must have been used to carry a corpse or unconscious man in a rolled rug.
ArdCollider: o7
Boopity:

iris_of_ether:

Boopity: That sheath needs a safety lock, like guns do
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: At this rate Officer Ma is going to get the full Murder on the Orient Express.
Strebenherz: I have regretfully been got by Adam's jumpscares before
TheAwkes: I must constantly demonstrate that I am willing to commit violence on you.
sentientwaffle_: wow that's harsh
Boopity: Good for nothing nephew, a classic
Strebenherz:
I think Adam is honestly better at jumpscares than some of the horror games he plays, funnily enough 
Boopity: Lmaooo
sentientwaffle_: does the wood chip match the door bar?
Strebenherz: LOL
Boopity: Look at all those chickens!
AdamYMHMI: I've been watching for 30 seconds, and I suspect the chickens
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: These days a savvy child would just connect up serial lines and tell the robaby that it was perfectly cared for.
Decaped: So now that Cori has basically figured out the crime.....how much longer does the game go on before you get to give the answer?
Boopity: Why does this man have a weirdly more realistic face?
Boopity: Cursed quote out of context
Strebenherz: "Am I going to have to sniff the nephew?" or something
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: @Boopity He's a gaunt peasant. This is, in a way, the Chinese equivalent of a cozy mystery.
AdamYMHMI: Changing my guess from the chickens to the rice cakes, with a knife, in the ball room.
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: Officer Ma is just Wimp Lo with a sword
Boopity:

Boopity: Bone apple tea Cameron
e_bloc: If anything the vomit noise lessened the recoil
Boopity: "God, he was such a westeaboo"
ArtDecoSunburn: Did LRR ever play "Sherlock Holmes, Consulting Detective" or one of its spiritual successors on one of the tabletop programs? That would be a mystery game similar to the choose-your-own adventures sometimes on Dice Friends.
Boopity:
OH 
iris_of_ether: Hahaha
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: As an anglo, anglophiles can be well meaning but exhausting
sentientwaffle_: Clearly the tailor who made it killed him to cover up their mediocre work!
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: Chuck a slug of rum in. Everything.
iris_of_ether: Oooh
Boopity: Oh that sounds incredible
RealGamerCow: I saw someone call the Texas-obsessed Japanese people "Yee-Hawiboos"
devinesq: I am learning things about muskrat anatomy
sentientwaffle_: ouiabeau
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: oof
JKBalch: Lee-aboos is good
RealGamerCow: Ohh, muskrat root is sweet flag. I did not know it was used for medicinal purposes, I only know it as an insecticide
ArtDecoSunburn: @JKBalch Clever. They keep eating their own tails, hence ouroborosboos.
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: Settle down, Slicey McGee!
otakon17: Nooo no Cameron NO
Strebenherz: time to reset the vore counter
Boopity: The wardrobe had the best acoustics for recording a voiceover
otakon17: STOP THAT
thedepthandbreadthofseth: Umm
Mr_Horrible: "Instructions unclear, became locked inside during a murder"
thedepthandbreadthofseth: Hi Vam.
thedepthandbreadthofseth: Cam*
thedepthandbreadthofseth: What's... What's going on.
otakon17: Eeyup
otakon17: Camphor is pretty nice actually
KaleidoscopeMind: @thedepthandbreadthofseth solving a murder, on the yangtze river
otakon17: that's a good deal dude you should have jumped on it
otakon17: nah the hat should smell like his hair and vice versa
otakon17: The books were a facade
sentientwaffle_: oh clever design to blame bad deductions on your companion rather than you
otakon17: oh it gives you an OUT
otakon17: you get ONE mistake
Mr_Horrible: usually it's either "the room isn't locked" or "the killer is still here"
ArtDecoSunburn: @Mr_Horrible Or the victim isn't actually dead -- yet.
thedepthandbreadthofseth: The first clue came at 3:00, when the clock stopped working. Then, the next was at 3:00, when
sentientwaffle_: steam page just says "numerous cases"
sentientwaffle_: I had hoped for a number, but no luck
Mr_Horrible: daaaaamn
Decaped: So you basically figured this out an hour ago. Is it good or bad it took that long to get to the accusation?
e_bloc: I find when I'm trying to make my case calling everyone else idiots is a helpful maneuver
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: Never trust the guy who shaves their head to make it look like they have a ninehead
Mr_Horrible: from *HIS* perspective the *JEDI* are evil!
Mr_Horrible: because no one has ever hated their uncle before
e_bloc: The motive is that he's your uncle
Boopity: It's super unlucky that he framed a detective
Mr_Horrible: "of course not, I'm the protagonist"
otakon17: "Let me crush this magazine MORE!"
Boopity: Not the evil laugh
RonaldMcDownload: that's how I laugh when i'm innocent
e_bloc: Super elipses
Boopity: Oh this is a vibe
e_bloc: I like to think the last case of the game we do just fuck up and get murdered
Mr_Horrible: it does a good job of nudging the player to focus on the "correct" things but still lets them make the deductions themselves, it seems
Boopity: There's almost an action-y quality to the framing and presentation
otakon17: oh he's got the manuscript in his HANDS
KaleidoscopeMind: but the conceit of (the original) ace attorney is the character is kinda bumbling, so you oopsy-ing into the answer makes sense
otakon17: he's literally hiding it in plain sight
Boopity:
Yeah, I was going to say
Is that what he's literally holding
Boopity: EVIL ALTER EGO
otakon17: OH NO IT'S HIS SUPER EGO
goombalax: I'm aldready a stan for his smug alter ego
Decaped: "I can't believe my chunibyo has a bunk in my mind palace"
otakon17: Smug Ping
otakon17: Sming
TheAwkes: Who needs an alter ego when you can have an alter id, instead? Have a whole second set of desires and instincts.
goombalax: I'd look smug too if I got to live rent free anywhere
Boopity: I do enjoy how almost all the characters are holding props in their sprite, so the manuscript on the nephew didn't even seem that weird
otakon17: HE is the variable
Decaped: Pivot!
otakon17: Robbery
otakon17: SUICIDE?!
otakon17: BY THREE KNIFE WOUNDS IN THE CHEST?!
e_bloc: I mean how can we possibly prove the killer wouldnt have murdered them if we weren't there
Mr_Horrible: bro you ALWAYS want to resort to violence
e_bloc: quod erat demonstrandum, if you pardon my french
Boopity:
This all happened in the blink of an eye canonically... or we just stood in silence for minutes 
e_bloc: I envision it as when Homer is thinking and forcing Bart to blow on a jug
otakon17: and it's IN HIS HAND

e_bloc: it came with the sword sounds asset pack
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: I'm with Afu
sentientwaffle_: I think I may pick this game up, the hook is actually really interesting!
Mr_Horrible: like a kid thinking that quicksand is gonna be a WAY bigger problem in everyday life than it actually is
Boopity: Imagine this is the only murder in the game and the rest are just really benign crimes
ArtDecoSunburn: Don't forget Cabot Cove, Maine. Place was littered with homicides in MSW.
SquareDotCube: And then there are "detective" games like that Sherlock series.
eid010n: Something Something entire population of Midsomer has been killed six times over
otakon17: have you guys played that Avian Attorney game?
e_bloc: and now seven cases of embezzlement
ArtDecoSunburn: It had the highest murder rate in the world per capita.
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: @Mr_Horrible Ah, the damp sand you walk across with normal shoes
otakon17: I'm a plebian, I really like Only Murders In The Building
Sethalidos: Cabot Cove hadf a higher murder per capita than Detroit in the 80's

FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: I've seen Suffolk villages like that. Terrifying . . .
e_bloc: those are villages of like 20 people
otakon17: Deadlock WHEN
ArtDecoSunburn: The center of American televised crime is apparently the Navy. A murder a week across five series?
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: Also, a series of Miss Marple was filmed in a vilage near me.
sentientwaffle_: Oh I think I looked into Deadloch once
e_bloc: like broadchurch or under the lake
ArtDecoSunburn: @FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving Was that the Joan Hinch one?
e_bloc: broadchurch had david tennant, jodie whittaker and olivia coleman, among others
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: @ArtDecoSunburn Hickson, but yeah. In one episode my sisters were extras and a built-in spot for an ad break features a still of one of them with wildly anachronistic orthodontics.

otakon17: that is the saddest soldier I hae ever seen
otakon17: WTF MA
KaleidoscopeMind: zhong, center (first character of china, which is "center kingdom")
otakon17: he's be doomscrolling one
e_bloc: and 3 ssris
e_bloc: check out my chinese basketball league four team teaser
otakon17: he was going to burn the evidence
TheMerricat: "Chinese does not have an alphabet, so instead of traditional alphabetization, characters are sorted using three primary systems: Pinyin (sounds), Radical and Stroke Count (visuals), and Stroke Order (complexity)."
otakon17: delicate
otakon17: the editor?
Boopity:
this obviously _delicate feminine_ writing that only women could possibly have 
e_bloc: his name sounds much more badass translated
Boopity:

e_bloc: and of course his later works starring sherlock holmes which was thinly veiled smut
RonaldMcDownload: I'm this old, realizing the name "conan" is a reference
otakon17: WHY haven't there been any Case Closed games like Ace Attorney?
KaleidoscopeMind: surprised they used kao and not ko. ko could've been "mouth"
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: Oh, that's bound to go well
otakon17: Sherlock Holmes on Cocainium would have been a hell of a RDJ movie
e_bloc: the culpruit killed them one way, but meant to smother
RonaldMcDownload: sir, could you Lessiarty?
Mr_Horrible: he seems like a lessiarty
KaleidoscopeMind: yeah fair
otakon17: And it makes Cameron sad
otakon17: could be worse
otakon17: I look like a potat
ArtDecoSunburn: @RonaldMcDownload Midiarity?
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: Conam-Doyle ang Christie both sucked so much they wamted people to pay for their books on a per-read basis and fought against libraries.
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: Please imagine that properly typed.
e_bloc: if he was so smart why did he fall off a waterfall
otakon17: Moriarity is always one step ahead of Holmes in the novels IIRC
e_bloc: except watson
Strebenherz: yes
ArtDecoSunburn: @e_bloc Just because he was a mathematician doesn't mean he had great balance.
AtomicAlchemical: But if he's so smart, why isn't HE the one doing all the drugs?
Thus_Spooped_Zarathustra : Something like that, yeah.
e_bloc: moriarity is at a disadvantage because he's committing crimes
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: Conan-Doyle hated writing Holmes and constantly tried to put an end to it
e_bloc: @ArtDecoSunburn the equation that gets you is the one you cant get to balance
otakon17: I don't care what anyone says, I think the RDJ Sherlock movies were a good watch
unbanjitte: hello friends
otakon17: hello o/
sentientwaffle_: oh that sounds rad
ArtDecoSunburn: Then there's Charles Augustus Milverton, the would-be Moriarity
otakon17: The Epic of Beowulf
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: @otakon17 They were silly in the way the original stories were for their time
otakon17: XD
otakon17: CANNONS!
KaleidoscopeMind: oh hey the L/R switch
Boopity:

goombalax: honestly i prefer Less AI lit
otakon17: oh what about the Privelages thing?
e_bloc: A+ reference Cam
ArtDecoSunburn: I had the good fortune of getting to spend time with Heaney when I was in college. He was a resident fellow at my college. We would drink whiskey and discuss translation late at night.
otakon17: got a full body pillow of him
otakon17: Afu's outfit is just ...I can't put my finger on it
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: @goombalax I think that's more a case of using machine translation. It sucks but you can see why a small outfit would do it.
otakon17: it's just so CLASHY
ArtDecoSunburn: @e_bloc Inner ear topology! Curses!
Boopity: Afu feels like he belongs in a different game
iris_of_ether: One side of pillow, fully clothed. Other side, that one scene wearing all the crown jewels
e_bloc: @ArtDecoSunburn makes me naueous just thinking about it
otakon17: the 3/4ths
goombalax: @FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving I'm just making a dumb pun, the chinese name for Moriarity was Mo Ai Lit
Boopity:
Omg imagine if this game briefly turns into a beat-em-up for a minigame 
KaleidoscopeMind: number line game
Cptasparagus: 2-d germany/japan/italy aligned
e_bloc: in between cases we should get to beat up an ox cart
RonaldMcDownload: Bartitsu?
otakon17: hold on
KWardJenx: Barjitsu
Gaelan_Maestro: single stick
otakon17: yeah it's Barjitsu
KWardJenx: It was a real art
otakon17: literally cane fighting
goombalax: Bartitsu
RonaldMcDownload: Which is a real thing
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: @goombalax Damn, my brain must be going floppy. Time for emergency chocolate!
ArtDecoSunburn: @goombalax That's fun.
otakon17: he had his own improvised style of it IIRC
KWardJenx: There is a barjitsu revival right now
Boopity:

TheMerricat: "Barjitsu" is a famous misspelling of Bartitsu, an eclectic Victorian-era martial art. Popularized by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle in the Sherlock Holmes stories, it combines boxing, jujutsu, cane-fighting, and savate. It has also recently been adopted as the name for casual, community-based grappling and jiu-jitsu events.
otakon17: THANK YOU
Thus_Spooped_Zarathustra : I think the RDJ adaptation of him as a drunken bar brawler was pretty close to character.
Boopity: "I didn't ask for that" is the essence of modern social media with how algorithm-driven it is
otakon17: savate is the French martial art IIRC
TheMerricat: "In 1898, Edward William Barton-Wright, an English engineer who had spent the previous three years living in Japan, where he became one of the first Europeans known to have studied jujitsu, returned to England and announced the formation of a "new art of self defence""
unbanjitte: i can double jump so i do that
otakon17: Dude have you ever been hit HARD in the ear?
otakon17: that shit HURTS
otakon17: now imagine BOTH of them at once
Thus_Spooped_Zarathustra : There's a reason the NFL banned slapping the opponents in the helmet.
otakon17: that WOULD discombobulate
ArtDecoSunburn: @Thus_Spooped_Zarathustra Jeremy Brett will always be my Holmes.
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: @ArtDecoSunburn Not Basil Rathbone?!
otakon17: The Hammer Blow is a move in Ryu Kyu Kempo
radiowasabi2014: s2 is supposed to be very gay
unbanjitte: who's excited for star trek in magic
radiowasabi2014: according to the gay klingon guy
iris_of_ether: RAD
shendaras:

e_bloc: christ that sounds insufferably tough
otakon17: basically consists of bringing your fist down on like, the shoulder of an opponent while stepping forward IIRC, it's been years since I practised
e_bloc: I assume unlike Holmes, they are no longer addicted to the white
radiowasabi2014: stephen colbert is VA announcer lol
otakon17: I desperately need a Star Trek RPG
SquareDotCube: Helen (on the) Hunt
Gaelan_Maestro: @otakon17 there are a few i think
otakon17: gimme stats and skill trees and level ups and a narrative and side missions and ship combat and ground combat and verbal jousting
FuzzRaTheBarelyLiving: That game would absolutely keep my mother occupied for hours if the daft old bat would take suggestions
Thus_Spooped_Zarathustra : @otakon17 Please, yes.
SquareDotCube: "I call this style 'Parboiled'"
