- From the May 24th live Twitch stream. Jack & Rich play Police Quest In Pursuit of the Death Angel the old Sierra Text Adventure Game. We talk about our ever present audio issues, then we play the game a lot and do voices and stuff… IT’S GREAT! -- Watch live at / previouslyrecorded_live
"There's more space behind me than there is ahead of me."
Rich Evans, using the power of words to uplift the masses, as usual.
It occurred to me coming back to watching this that Rich's SGT voice is Don Wilson before he created Don Wilson
Rich "I could die any minute now" Evans
imagine the depth and length of an early sierra/lucas-style text parser game on todays systems, with the help of machine-learning etc
itd be fkn awesome.
Chicken Quest: In Pursuit Of The Poultry.
Fearing death is like fearing next Tuesday.
Peter Lorre should voice at least one character in every game you guys play.
Jay's laugh at the end doe...
30:57 The corvette won't stop staring at me...
Could you guys perhaps find a way to normalize and balance out the audio? I love following your adventures, especially while gaming myself, but it's hard with the audio being all over the place. Either I can't hear what you're saying or screams are _really_ loud.
Fix it please? Pretty please? :3
31:25 The most mixed-tone scene in the history of everything. A man is in ruins, then cake and strippers. 💋
At 45:00 - that was my comment! First mention in a PreRec stream. Woo hoo!
(And Jack, if you read this, the "Jack" in my name doesn't refer to you. This is a username I've been using for decades. So don't be offended. Or flattered, for that matter) :)
I just remembered Gabriel Knight. You should totally play that.
Chris C I played Gabriel Knight for the first time a couple of years ago, so I had no nostalgia going in. It really was a satisfying game to play.

I played it when I was a kid when it first came out, it was the top of the line as far as the Sierra adventure engine was at the time.
The setting, characters, voice work, lore, art and over all tone were fantastic. It really bummed me out how the sequels didnt use the same engine and were changed to FMV style of play.
@@HarrIock me too! Man 90's PC games had a certain charm lol.
I can't believe they still won't turn up their goddamn audio. Do they not notice when they upload these how ridiculously quiet they are?
Lurdiak and then Rich yells into the mic....
Lurdiak I don't, so I have no idea what the aggressive complaints are about.
Lurdiak The audio seems fine when listening with head phones.
ehcmier It's true. The difference is astounding.
AND they started doing the subscribers midstream again? Why?? Just another excuse for Rich to scream.
I love this dumb game so much, it blew my fucking mind as a kid.
It took a while to get to 30% getting to the second briefing we finally got a little further, there is a lot to do it seems in that last 10.
Crash Cop 3: The Wreckoning
I'm excited for Demon's Souls! It's definitely less streamlined than Bloodborne, but it's got a spooky feel and is a great game in its own right.
Hippy-di-DAMN.
saying "turn up ur volume is a lousy ass excuse for turning up your audio
What's great is that they makes jokes about it, too. "Oh these wacky subscribers, always complaining about audio! Ha ha, how silly!"
Shh dont tell anyone, I got in on that Cyber High-5
145 labels...
How could Jack read text about the showering cop that fast? I understand the hot water situation is funny, but the text box lasts for literally less a second before he starts laughing. 52:28
Rich, a good thing to do is to stop viewing your age from the perspective of a kid and instead view it from the perspective of an 85 year old. I started doing that and suddenly I'm a spring chicken! :-)
I don't know how jack and rich can keep attention to slow games like the Sierra games
xdhollywood1 Because despite the slow pacing they are still good?
oh, super girl is sure to meet my expectations: utter crap.
I absolutely loved the Best of the Worst episode with Dick the Birthday Boy, but I can't remember which episode it was!
You probably figured it out by now, but it was the "Trick or Treat" episode. At least I'm pretty sure.
^ Correct.
Will they ever do the Tell Tale Games? Would love it
James Davis While a lot of the tell tale games are great I dont think it would be great choice for a pre-rec stream, they'd talk over everyone, bitch about the gameplay and ruin any image of them having fun at it or making an enjoyable stream out of it you might have atm.
Jack, never stop being wrong :)
I suppose with all these streams on UA-cam, he kind of will!
We should start a petition to get Jack drinking again, remember how tolerable he used to be?
It's funny that rich mentioned 'strong feminist themes'. Keep in mind that all the old Sierra online games were over seen by both Ken and Roberta Williams.Yet all of them (even the ones written by Roberta Williams herself) all have questionable moments. If you think Police Quest is bad, try playing Phantasmagoria. The protagonist practically gets raped and it's all kinds of awkward. I love all these old PC games but some of the jokes really make me cringe.
Also, Rich, you're not old. I'm a little younger than you but not by that much.
I don't like the idea of a batmobile because Batman is supposed to be discrete. When he's smashing all over the city with a tank... that's not discrete or stealthy at all. How do you hide a huge battle tank??? This is why the games barely use the vehicles; mainly just travel cutscenes. He also rarely used them in the movies. Now suddenly we're getting a GTA ripoff where you can wreck all over the city with your BATTANK. This series should have just stopped at 3. 3 good movies, 3 good games. Now they're making a desperate sequel for more money. And you can feel the desperation all over their preorder bonuses and FORTY DOLLAR season pass. Not really confident in your recycled game when you have to bank everything on day 1 sales.
