The new Hunted compilation with DrSchwa is now available. This 7 part Psychological Adventure follows a new run in a fastcut spazfest of extreme game testing survival.

Another long-standing project is knocked down. I will probably attempt Castlevania 3 as my next major run sometime in the near-ish future.

Just started watching. I must say that the video quality has improved significantly from the previous LP of Hunted. Did you increase the bitrate because of the shorter run times or was it an improvement in the encode settings?

I used a few different encodes in this video and all of them are higher than the older one. I also decided to reduce the resolution on the old one at the time to reduce filesize. The quality loss you are speaking about is exactly why I decided against that in future releases that had very large sizes for similar reasons (notably DMC4 and lords of game testing).

I can't remember if that game had QTE's. I know it had a lot of arbitrary objects. It is so forgettable.

A new AWP is out.

I'm finding bouncing back from 2014 and recent events difficult. I guess that's just the shit we're steamed with.

Correct.

The so-called boss fights in hots were already QTE's.

I always find it hysterical that these new games have to have these big red indicators for everything because they are so lazy and creatively bankrupt to actually do anything gameplay related.

/edit


A new section has been added to the Compilations section of the thread. This is a Castover section, which I cast external videos while watching them (usually provided by Nefarius). Sometimes the videos he sends me are so fucked up they deserve such treatment. Such was the case for this Ballz 3d game.
