Recommended Daggerfall LPs

Post » Wed May 20, 2015 3:15 am

I take this opportunity to recommend two recent Daggerfall Let's Plays, one completed, the other ongoing. Both commentators know their business and are enjoyable to listen to.

The ongoing LP is by https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLN3aqk1mCrBxH-kC8KEit8EaRhTztnaJ6. If you want ideas on uber character builds she's the one to go to, and in fact has https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLN3aqk1mCrBwYj9XLZfU2YrHP5n5FZWcE. Even though I've moved away from uberness I appreciate watching someone who knows how to work the system. Boy does her main character plow through dungeons without chipping a nail! In fact she recently considered restarting her LP because her character makes the game too easy. How often does one hear that in an DF LP???? Her play-style includes a few things I myself don't condone (such as using a shoppe bug to acquire free merchandise and wantonly annihilating palace guards for loot) but hey, it's a game. If I insist on watching someone play exactly as I do I might as well close my browser and launch the game. Besides, these little slips from virtue are entertaining in their way, even to a stick-in-the-mud sanctimonious old fogey like me. In my opinion she deserves far more views than she gets.

https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmyHTZ8SETj37T9Rplsu90nITDcjgNwIY. It's relatively short, and very main-quest focused. (He states that he'd not a big fan of DF's huge dungeons, so you won't see a great many side-quests.) Good presentation, though be advised that he is quite the casual swearer, which is why I link the LP playlist rather than an individual episode. Also, if you are in the midst of doing the main quest yourself, or contemplate doing so in the near future, you might find his LP contains too many spoilers.

(For what it's worth, you'll note that I, under a different handle, am the chief commenter on these LPs.)

Anyone else have DF video recommendations, old or new?
