I can't wait to continue this epic saga in Shenmue 3 of just looking for one's father... Was a bit annoying to keep hear them referring to that as the plot throughout the video

lets plays are really cool, when it's just the audio and video to the game alone, FREE from human yipey voices, and irl background noises. (professionals just stream the console output to a hauppage, or some shit, record it and dump it online.) :mrgreen:
...
as for above, can't blame the poster for jumping the barricade, shenmue is just too good for one console. 8)

^ Let's play in general are dumb -- but without the commentary? Why even bother? I don't want to just watch raw gameplay footage of someone playing a game kind of shitty. At least with commentary you get some sort of human element.

(why was i prepared for such an answer?!)
because it's like a motion walkthrough and live play demo, that's why.
and useful to see second-hand what a game is like before purchase, and without BIAS! (if i wanted 'commentary' i'll just go to crown court, or leave my shell. thanks fuck internet provides, the 'burger king' way, or any other way. :mrgreen:
[edit]
typo. (and the board is experiencing user allocation/connection issues. SQL guru responses. dojo isn't as 'smooth' as some claim.)

^^ but you understood the point fine, it seems?! (nice dodge) :roll:
what 'that' means, i just can't be around peoples irl, and that includes listening to their GRATING voices and purile meanderings.
...
wonder if tom will let me use his studio for a session? could do with capturing some amiga party demos. :P

I didn't understand your point. It wasn't very clear.

:shock:
game recordings, without human voice overs, or sloppy background noises.
imagine a 'lets play' recording without the 'lets' (voices) involved, and just PURE play remains. ](*,)

You already explained that part, which I understood originally. The part I didn't understand was what I quoted in my first response to you. I get that you want to watch pure gameplay footage in order to gauge your interest in a product. The part I didn't understand, until I asked, was that you wanted to watch the gameplay footage without commentary because you "just can't be around peoples irl, and that includes listening to their GRATING voices and purile meanderings".

I get it now. It just wasn't very clear in your original post. I wasn't trying to "dodge" anything just because you have a different opinion -- even if your reason for that opinion is the dumbest thing ever.

^^ there it is!
fine, if my opinion is dumb, okay
it's just as well there's no irl interactions with folks.
if what i say gets called dumb, why would i want to be part of that clique? (rhetorical.)
and as for not understanding, not my problem, all yours! (and i deciphered your 'talk' easy enough.)

It is very much your responsibility. If you can't articulate yourself well enough to be understood, then you've failed in conversation.

^^ yes, it seems i failed here.
never have the issue at other places, but then again, only ONE dojo, i must be speaking in tongues. :roll: (added to my 'friend' list, one of a long line no doubt.)

Is it just voices you hate, or socialising with people in general?
