Have fun!:D

PS I am numbering all my videos in new series based on date from here on out: Year Month Day - ISO Standard Dating. Why? Because I'm a lazy SOB.
Transcript
00:00Hey, everybody, so I don't know what kind of video series this will be, it has been
00:29over a month, it may have actually been a month and a half since my last upload to YouTube.
00:47Well I have a good reason for that, I've been programming my own game.
00:55I know, it's not great for me to be irregular in my uploads.
01:02I think I'm going to dig through and find some past videos, probably with Star Trek,
01:14for Star Trek Online and upload them to YouTube to cover up the fact that I'm not really gaming,
01:21I'm programming games.
01:25But I do still play and I do still make videos and this is how things have been for me for
01:30about 15 years or close to it, maybe 10 years.
01:44So yeah, I mean there is a problem with me not streaming regularly and that's why Daily
01:49Motion, I have a few followers on Daily Motion and a few followers on YouTube, I'm actually
01:56making money from Daily Motion, I'm not making money from YouTube, although I would love
02:00to make money from YouTube, but we'll go ahead and we'll see about that.
02:06In the meantime, I'm going to play Legend of Grimrock, I have played 40 minutes of it
02:12in the past and gave up and I'm not sure entirely why.
02:19So let's see if I play more than 30 minutes and let's see if I give up.
06:19Alright, so let's reduce the sound a little bit, I'm trying to create the characters here.
06:49Um, well I mean I'm pretty sure that Minotaur would have some athletics, right?
07:05And knowledge of armors.
07:09Um.
07:21Axe sounds good and unarmed combat.
07:27And let's see here, a mage.
07:33So I think a lizard would have fire magic, right?
07:39Um.
07:43Strong mind, let's give him strong mind.
07:47Um.
07:57Cold-blooded should be the exact opposite.
08:03But never mind, I guess I get where they're going.
08:07Um, aura, alright, gonna give him aura.
08:17I like that, like that.
08:23Alright, I think that's pretty good, spellcraft, staff, defense, fire magic.
08:37You know what, air magic is, uh, that sounds good, that sounds solid.
08:45I'm gonna have him do two magics and no staff defense, just two magics.
08:53I guess I can have him do three, what the heck did I do over here?
08:57Oh, spellcraft, okay.
08:59Yeah, so I think I'm gonna have him do spellcraft, uh, air magic and, uh, earth magic.
09:09Um.
09:15Evasive, gonna need that.
09:29Um.
09:35Um, hmm.
09:47Let's see here, um, skilled, three more skill points, I'm gonna give him three more skill points.
09:59Um.
10:07There we go, he's pretty loaded out for spells, how about that.
10:13And she is gonna be a rogue, I'm gonna make her a demon ancestor.
10:29Poison resistant.
10:33Um.
10:37Missile, dodge, assassination.
10:45Unarmed combat, how about that.
10:47All right, all right, let's start the game and I'll mute the mic.
11:17Um.
11:31So.
11:47So.
11:59So.
12:11So.
12:17So.
12:21So.
12:25So.
12:29So.
12:31A towering spire looms above the clouds, a weathered rock that has stood tall for ages, longer than the histories of men have been written.
12:41It is a desolate place now, only remembered when things need to be discarded and forgotten.
13:01An airship struggles to gain altitude as it floats toward the peak.
13:07An airship struggles to gain altitude as it floats toward the peak.
13:37Four prisoners bound by heavy chains emerge from the ship.
13:42The court accuses them of terrible treasonous deeds, but by the grace of the king their
13:48crime shall be forgiven atop Mount Grimrock.
14:13Their final trial at hand.
14:15Numerous prisoners have received their pardons here, and yet none have returned to live their
14:21life in freedom.
14:23They're at the very top of the world, and below them only darkness and justice awaits.
14:45As they are plunged down the open maw at the peak, their crimes are absolved.
15:02Everyone before them has perished in the guts of the mountain, but will you be able to lead
15:07them through the dark and to the freedom that awaits at the base of Mount Grimrock?
15:37Now, this is my first time playing Grimrock, but, uh, I don't know.
16:07Should I do the tutorial?
16:08Should I see if I can survive?
16:11Let's see if I can survive without the tutorial.
16:13Supposedly, they claim that this is done in the same vein as the old SSI, uh, first-person
16:19role-playing games.
16:20Uh, so, let's see, let's see if it's possible to beat this without me having to do a tutorial.
16:27Usually I do tutorials, but, um, I don't know.
16:30Role-playing game tutorials tend to take me longer than I care to play right now.
17:00So, uh, let's see if I can beat Grimrock without having to do a tutorial.
17:28So, uh, let's see if I can beat Grimrock without having to do a tutorial.
17:58So, uh, let's see if I can beat Grimrock without having to do a tutorial.
18:28Okay, so, uh, confession time.
18:42I looked at the tutorial, and I can't figure out how to cast spells.
18:51Um, this, now I remember why I stopped playing this game.
19:02Let's see here, I control party for blah blah blah blah blah blah, portraits and item slots,
19:16character sheet, map resets, skills, statistics, character suffers, condition, okay, so where
19:24are the friggin' spells?
19:32It doesn't tell me how to cast the spells.
19:39The hell is this?
19:46It doesn't, it doesn't tell me any of that.
19:56The hell are these things?
20:01I don't know what any of these things are.
20:06It doesn't tell me how to cast, how do I cast spells?
20:16I can't move over to select them.
20:21These are skill points, nothing else.
20:31Maybe when I'm in combat, it'll tell me how to cast the spells?
20:37By the way, all my characters are named after cameras, there's Kodak, Nikon, Polaroid, Leica.
20:49Okay, so, um, let's get moving, I guess.
20:58Let's see if I can do anything.
21:07Menu, there's no friggin' spell menu.
21:11These do not give me spells.
21:15Apparently he can't even cast any spells.
21:17Well, the other guy can cast spells, but I wish they would have told me that.
21:22I actually like step movement, step movement is good.
21:30It's been a long time since people used step movement in video games.
21:35I mean, I turn it off sometimes for Ravenloft, but usually I turn it on.
21:44Alright, what the hell does this say?
21:51Use your fate, perish in the cell, or pick up the torch.
21:55Alright, I got the torch.
22:00Guess I'm gonna give her the torch.
22:15I don't even know which friggin' spell these are.
22:24Apparently I just casted a spell and it doesn't tell me what I casted.
22:29Oh, God.
22:32This was made by one of those developers that said, we want you to discover things.
22:37I don't wanna fuckin' discover shit, I just want instructions so I can play.
22:44Uh, there we go.
22:49Here.
23:03I don't have anything that looks like that.
23:07Nothing.
23:13God, I don't even know what spells I'm casting.
23:30So right click, swipes.
23:35Oh.
23:39That's better.
23:43Alright.
24:02Just random clothing.
24:04Random clothing.
24:06Fits my, uh, fits my minotaur.
24:10Alright, you know, I think my, um, I think my voice is good enough.
24:21Um.
24:34I think my mic's up right.
24:40Rock.
24:50Hey, I can throw rocks.
24:53Ah, crap.
24:59Um.
25:04No disarmed traps.
25:11Oh, I get it.
25:13I gotta pick this up.
25:18Oh, I don't, no, no, no, no.
25:20Oh.
25:28I threw the rock and I just softlocked myself.
25:32Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
25:35Oh, crap.
25:37Oh, wait, wait, wait.
25:39Wait.
25:41There we go.
25:54But you can softlock yourself in this game.
25:56Okay.
25:57Alright, this game allows softlocks.
26:03Oh.
26:05Key.
26:10Who's Polaroid?
26:14Polaroid must be the girl.
26:24Hey, hey.
26:28I can get my rock back.
26:36There we go.
26:39I guess you have several chances to not softlock yourself.
27:05Okay.
27:26Loose rock.
27:35There we go.
27:47Key.
27:48I like that.
27:49That's just like the SSI games.
27:52The rock in the corner.
27:55I think they modeled this after DungeonHack more than anything else.
28:05Okay.
28:29Uh-oh.
28:30Uh-oh.
28:35Uh-oh.
29:05Why won't this thing die?
29:19There, he died.
29:29It's a snail slice.
29:31Consumable.
29:33Alright.
29:35Oh, and it heals her a little bit.
30:03Oh, I'll wait.
30:12She's got a knife now.
30:17Okay.
30:32I guess all my guys are naked.
30:46Okay.
31:09If I rest, do I get my hit points back?
31:16I think I do.
31:23Yes, I do.
31:24Oh, good.
31:46Okay.
32:16There we go.
32:46Okay.
33:17Alright, alright, come on.
33:32There we go.
33:37Alright.
33:41Now I'm going to rest.
33:48Okay, so the magic system is god-awful.
34:00I have a spell that I should be able to cast,
34:07and it does not tell me...
34:18I need to find the scroll explaining the runes of the spell.
34:20That just pisses me off.
34:25If my guy can cast the spell, then I should know from the start.
34:31Period.
34:33If I put in the skill points, then I should have that spell.
35:03Alright, come on.
35:10Push and click.
35:17Die, die, die.
35:24Push and click.
35:26Die, die, die.
35:38Snail slice.
35:42Alright, eat it.
35:44There we go.
35:46Getting better.
36:17Pit root bread.
36:21Alright.
36:33Hey, hey, wait.
36:47Oh.
36:50Oh, the torch is dimming. Uh-oh.
36:55Torches go out in this game.
37:17Let's see here.
37:22Uh...
37:26Okay.
37:29Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
37:36Look at this.
37:47Alright, lizard man.
37:50You get loincloth and sandals.
37:59Baked maggot. You can have that one.
38:11Alright.
38:18Hi, what's going on here?
38:28Alright, I need a key.
38:43Ha!
38:48Am I a genius or what?
38:54Oh, let's see what it says.
38:57To close the pit, something needs to fly.
39:00Oh, you know what?
39:07I'll leave the torch there.
39:11It's a worthless torch.
39:31Hmm.
39:51Alright, let's check the other one.
39:58I want to see if I can clear each level before saving.
40:05Oh!
40:07Oh!
40:10Okay.
40:40Oh, shoot, that was a wasted shot.
40:54Heal my sight. Oh, he needs gems in there.
41:00Oh, unless I just threw away the rocks and he needed rock.
41:03No, I think he needs, like, gems or something.
41:20Ha!
41:23I just dumped him.
41:25Did I not get experience for that?
41:28Oh, shoot, I should have gotten experience for that.
41:31I defeated him.
41:46Oh.
41:51I defeated that one too.
41:55Uh-oh.
41:58Oh!
41:59Use gravity as a weapon. Oh, nice.
42:21Oh!
42:26Well, game over.
42:36I got an achievement, though.
42:38I used gravity as a weapon.
42:47And I can go ahead and restart at the autosave.
42:51See here, autosave.
42:54And the autosave is at the very beginning.
42:58But, hey, you know what, that's okay.
42:59I got an achievement and I fell down there because I wanted to see what was going on.
43:04I am also very tired.
43:0943 minutes, that's not too bad.
43:12So, I hope all you guys have a wonderful day.
43:15Sorry for no cam.
43:17I had to take my camera down.
43:20I'm at my laptop, so I couldn't really put my camera up.
43:24But, you know what, I had some fun.
43:25So, I think I'm going to explore this again.
43:27However, I do believe I'm going to cheat and get a nice little thing of spells.
43:32Because I think it's BS that I have to learn runes.
43:37Unless the runes are random with each game, which they might be.
43:43Anyway, love you all, everybody.
43:45Take care.
43:46See ya.
43:47Bye.
