Let's Play - Legend of Grimrock
I've been wanting to do a LP for a while, but due to technical difficulties and lack of time, I've been unable to.
But St. Eddie (Davies), suggested that maybe I should just do a typed up one instead. You know what... I'm going to take you up on that. So for the past hour or so, I have been working on the first chapter of the grand voyage into the unknown. Which can be read here: http://www.scribd.com/doc/88921289/L...-Grimrock-CH-1 http://www.scribd.com/doc/88933259/L...-Grimrock-CH-2 http://www.scribd.com/doc/89029968/L...-Grimrock-CH-3 http://www.scribd.com/doc/89511957/L...-Grimrock-CH-4 Not so eventful, but all journeys have to have a beginning! Right?  So the game I chose was Legend of Grimrock. A perfect choice, because I literally just downloaded it, and I want to be driven to play it. So yeah. Enjoy.  (NOTE: It may take some time to upload the files, so chapters may not be immediately available) EDIT: Updated with link to chapter 4.

Hah! I'm on level 4.
 All right, maybe I have just fallen into level 4 but quickly returned to 3.

I've only literally just got the game, (spent hours on the bus waiting to get in and download it). Plus playing the game is going to be slow, when I have to type it all up at the same time too! Working on Chapter 2 as we speak. Haven't left the first room yet! XD

(b) I was really impressed with how you've got so far with the 'letswalkplaythrough' in such a short period of time. Ketzer, what's your internet DL speed?!

Either one piece of recording software fails, or someone drags me off in the middle of a game. This way I can go at my own pace! EDIT: Chapter 2 is uploading now. (I think I'm going to keep these relatively short, file size and all that)

 And I don't care if the CoC(k)-purchase was a better experience because the 3 people that bought it there don't count. Also let's just say people weren't happy on the Steam forum about that.

Its getting toasty here, so I'll resume tomorrow in the morning. Time for a drink, methinks!

Haha. It amused me greatly when you put the torch on the pressure sensitive pad. Please can you try your best to accumulate as many rocks as possible? It could become a fun little mini-game!

It might not really help you, but some people reported that those who pre-ordered on the developer's website have had an even less enjoyable time (because that one promptly crashed at the specified time - could not handle so many requests). Seems I really lucked out this time (yes, it could have gone wrong also ). I started downloading one minute after the specified release time (wasn't even in F5 mode, been playing Anachronox before), the download took considerably below 10 minutes and the installation cost about 30 seconds (that was really scary ). All right, off to the "now playing" thread for a few praising words.

I have played 65 minutes (thanks to Steam for that data) and haven't even made it to the first Savepoint yet. Oh death my eternal companion.

The blue save crystals/stones are pretty irrelevant for the purposes of "saving". They do refresh your party, but manual save works anywhere.
But do play on, it feels pretty rewarding!

Managed to clear the first floor now. Later I will go deeper. Also found 2 secrets. Edit: 3 secrets on floor 1 now, not counting the one you are told to find.

Well, chapter 3 is uploading now.
I am really enjoying this game so far! (Just a shame I haven't actually got anywhere yet! XD) EDIT: Chapter uploaded. Enjoy.

You really need to keep a rock tally, Retro, so that we can know how your collection is going.

Also, once you near the end of the game, I want you to empty your rock collection upon the floor and if possible, form a rock-based pyramid of awesomeness.

I was so happy to see the appearance of the rock collection counter. Quote:
