I have a userscript, if you count that. Not much of a script but whatever - it's not a let's playsomeonehairy-ish said:
And another one! You're climbing up that god ladder, toohazabaza1 said:
Yeah, I've been watching (or rather listening to - I don't watch all of it) your Fable LP and I like it. I like Fable. I love Fable, in fact. I'm up to episode 8 and one thing I noticed is that you're not breaking the game. I must say I always do that, too xD But don't know if you don't know or if you avoid it but you know how you can break the in-game economy by abusing the rules of it? You can break archery too, again, by abusing the system of it. If you hold down the attack button, you do more damage - but that's not limited by your character drawing the bow completely (or the crossbow, for that matter) - hold it down for a minute and you'll oneshot almost everything, hold it down for several minutes (I believe 5 is enough) and you will kill anything in one shot. Including trolls. Especially trolls. Wanna break the game more? Oneshot a troll (don't use multiarrow, though) and you get a giant multiplier (40-ish for mud ones, 67 for rock ones, IIRC). Now drink all your Ages potions and pig out on carrots/fish/red meat for even more XP (I put these in the hotbar). Also, you mentioned you haven't used magic much - it shows
The best spell is actually Enflame - AOE around you, almost instant hit, you are invincible during the animation, too (Divine Fury and the infernal equivalent do have that window of opportunity while you're channeling), big damage, and throws everything back. You are immortal if you spam it. Also, the lightning magic is a bit...bugged - sometimes when you start channelling it, it ticks damage twice as fast as normal (and I think sometimes it goes twice as slow) - you'll notice it easily - you'll hit them roughly twice a second and they cannot move at all because of the little interrupt it does (otherwise they are knocked back, do a step or two, then are knocked back again, etc). It still uses the same amount of mana as before. So how do you get it to tick fast? I don't actually know a reliable way, however, if you just start using it, see if how fast it attacks and if it's normal (or even slow), just cancel and start it again. You're bound to get the fast version at some point. If you level up Lightning it starts to arc (hits as many people as its level) and it's quite good against small groups - you can completely disable 2-3 enemies if you just use Lightning on them - at that point, you just keep the magic up and they can't do anything but take damage. And the combat multiplier goes up quite fast. Slow Time can be abused, too (aside from being quite good in combat) - you can activate it and play any pub game and it'd be in slow motion - you get more time to memorise stuff and so on. Finally, Physical Shield - OK, it's not much of an exploit but it still is - while it's up when you're hit, the game doesn't count that as a hit (aside from you losing mana), so you'll not lose your combat multiplier, also you're not getting any scars. And one last thing - you mention how you haven't found a guide for the books and other stuff - I recommend RonHiler's Walkthrough on GameFAQs [http://www.gamefaqs.com/pc/926702-fable-the-lost-chapters/faqs/41298] which is excellent and covers all the things in the game. You do get age reduction from the temple of Avo and the chapel of Skorm, too but you need to do a lot of donations to each. Unless you're of opposite alignment, in which case, you actually need less donations.

I don't think I have anything useful to say but...
And are all of your cartoons hand drawn?
Because they look like they are.
I love your new avatar, it's awesome, and I saw some of the pictures you posted a while back and it really does look like you, your previous one was good too, but I like how this one looks better may be the fact that this one is on colour.Casual Shinji said:

Well I've coordinated and have been featured in many of the CommuniCast episodes so far, so there's that. Those have been really fun and we'll be rolling out a bunch of new episodes really soon.
Other than that I do reviews every now and then and I'm working on a webcomic with my sister

If it counts Im doing a nuzlocke off site on the main forums. anyone interested I can give a link, but I will say its a lit locke so be prepared for reading.
other than that... no i cant say I know anyone on the escapist doing much off site, but I dont generaly ask if someone is from here. I do enjoy off site contetn from former major contributors like Rob moran and Awkward panda studios but I dontk now if that counts.

I've got a YouTube [http://www.youtube.com/user/Voxgizer] page that I update on a sporadic schedule, it's mostly full of GW2 stuff from a few months back. In-Depth Look at Rangers and how they function.
I've also done a bit of music that's themed as 8bit RPG-ish. It's called Dragonshire [http://www.mediafire.com/?uzu1y1b55uifa67] (links to a direct download from Mediafire) and absolutely still unfinished.
Can't say I've (knowingly) encountered and other Escapists outside of the site, though.

I'm interested. Share a link to your stuff even if it's rough.someonehairy-ish said:Is this all Let's Plays? Anyone done any music or whatever? Mods? Naww...
I'm writing music atm, will hopefully one day get a big enough chunk composed properly so I can justify buying Logic Pro and recording it. And then I'll have to mix it and shiz... but after all that I might post some music
All I've really ever done is MLP inspired art/fan art. Though I'm working on learning Blender to start making 3d models and then Unity to make games, so maybe down the line I'll actually be making something more interesting.
Thanks!Kaleion said:I don't think I have anything useful to say but...I love your new avatar, it's awesome, and I saw some of the pictures you posted a while back and it really does look like you, your previous one was good too, but I like how this one looks better may be the fact that this one is on colour.Casual Shinji said:

The line art is traditional and the colour is digital. That picture you posted was actually the first one I (succesfully) coloured after getting a Wacom tablet. And it's a good thing too, because there was only so much I could do with hatchings.
If this is content beyond Let's Plays, then I also make music. I'm planning on finishing up a chiptune album in the near future, once I get some better recording equipment (Works in progress here [https://soundcloud.com/giantraven]) . I also put a few things up on bandcamp, although they're quite old and I'm not sure I really like them anymore (link [http://giantraven.bandcamp.com/]).someonehairy-ish said:Is this all Let's Plays?

Wow, alright, that's... a lot of advice.DoPo said:
By the point I've recorded up to, some of it I've already done, like breaking the economy or spamming enflame, but I'll keep the other stuff in mind. The guide is also useful, but I don't think I'll do all the books and the such, mainly just due to sheer laziness.
Thanks though!
Hells yeah CommuniCast and FailCast.Daystar Clarion said:Well me and a number of other Escapists have done several podcasts together.
There's a good days worth on content right there
I've made some Skyrim mods [http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/users/1892262] other Escapists might enjoy.
Yeah, I noticed Enflame in the very next videohazabaza1 said:
And the books are a chore but they do give you a nice hat early on so you can at least do that (in short - go through the bookshelves in the Hero's guild, give them to the school teacher and you'll get a white wizard hat, if you instead go rummage through the bookshelves in Bowerstone and give him those books, you'll get a black wizard hat. You get the white wizard set from...one of the demon doors, IIRC, the one where that grandmother was. You can be Gandalf xD). Getting all of the books is a waste - the reward is not worth it. Well, seeing the children act out the books is a bit funny, though, especially the evil ones.Still, though, the guide has everything, including demon doors solutions, silver keys locations and so on. It's good for a reference.
And something else in general you might not have noticed - in the beginning, when you do your ranged training you missed a lot but that's good because just a bit later in the ranged exam, you have to beat your previous high score (the guild master wasn't just saying that he'd be impressed if you repeat that performance
) and later on, in the competition near Knothole Glade, you have to beat the score you got on the exam, I believe, so underperforming on those is actually better than giving your it best shot (he-he).I love Fable - I really like the atmosphere and everything. I'm mostly just listening to your videos because I've seen it so many times, I know most of it already but it's a nice background if I'm doing other stuff. Do keep going through that let's play, I'll be sure to keep up with it
I'll also watch (listen to) the other one.
I liked some of the WIP stuff a lot. Its a long way off from what I'd usually listen to, but it still sounds really damn cool. Plus there are some bits that sounded quite heavily syncopated and that's always cool. Too many people stick to boring old 4/4. Only criticism I have is that the bass could be much more potent, but maybe I'm just biased 'cos I'm a bassist, first and foremost.GiantRaven said:If this is content beyond Let's Plays, then I also make music.

Have you thought about sending these to an Indie game dev or something?
