Fine, I'll bite.

Hell Temple, here we come!

Q getting mangled by the traps I missed makes me feel warm inside.

The La-Mulana Bossless Challenge: collect as much stuff as possible without defeating any Guardians! Look, I didn't sign up to fight giant two-headed snakes or discover the secret of life. I'm just here to grab as much loot as I can hold and stuff my maw with as much bat curry as I can stomach, and I assure you that both my carrying capacity and appetite are enormous.


Here's what happens when you play the game like a normal person (hereafter referred to as "a sucker"):


And here's what happens when you fly the bird at the rules and sequence break:

Heard on Garr's stream, while fighting Sakit:

"I like the little fist-pump he does when he gets his rocket back. He thinks he's the shit, but he's a fucking asshole."

Additional Spam:
Also: "You're a fucking asshole, I hope you die of asshole cancer. But you're a robot, so you don't even get cancer, so I hope you get a fuckin' trojan or something."

okay.jpg

Holy shit Garr, looks like you made giant strides after I went to bed. I will have to watch those boss fights on the recording!

(Getting hints now and then is okay. The game is a bitch.)

oh boy so much this

Also heard something along the lines of "You can't believe the size of my erection right now" during that fight :twitch:

[12:48:36] <^___^> hey
[12:52:30] <Q-chan|space> two fucking splurge lasers in a row are you kidding me
[12:53:09] <Q-chan|space> I mean SURE WHY NOT
[12:54:42] <^___^> HI Q >:(

During one attempt, my Dual Shock 4 just randomly stopped co-operating and Lemeza wouldn't move. I couldn't pause the game and tried to unplug and replug and nothing worked.

Another fight I'd just randomly switched to knife somehow during my panicked laser dodging without actually noticing, so running low on hp, I finally saw an opening to jump up and attack (and hopefully finish her off) and out comes a horizontal knife poke as Lemeza hovers under her chin pathetically.

That sounds a lot like Garr attacking Sakit.

Man, I have to give mad props to Garr for sticking to trying to kill Sakit's second phase with just the knife.

Sorry I missed you dominating the guardians after getting the chain whip. I did see you fight Ponzeru for the first time though before I konked out so I knew you were on the way to eventual success. Good times. =)

THIS. PLACE.

No matter how many times I play the game, I'm guaranteed to get terribly lost here. I think I'm getting thrown off by the changes they've made. In the original, you first access this field from the opposite side. All this Eden stuff didn't exist either.

Garr's adventures in Graveyard of the Giants:

"Ah, Ice Dick Man, we meet at last."

"I broke your ice dick, fuck you!"

"Augh, I got ice-dicked in the face."

"All right, I got a bone to pick with you, Ice Dick Man."

"Bombs everywhere! Ice dicks everywhere!"


Accurate.
