Laddy Plays Baldur's Gate For Real This Time!

A young warrior thought for as long as he lived his short life in the dusty old libraries of Candlekeep who he was and what he was meant for. His adoptive father, Gorion, had instilled in him a strong sense of courage, justice, and goodness. However, never has he been told who his parents were and what his true heritage is. All he had were a bunch of really stupid friends and his dreams. Until one day, his thirst for adventure was suddenly and unexpectedly quenched...

Chapter 0: Sir Quin and his Troupe of Amazing Friends

http://i47.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/mt6txf.jpg
It will be grand. I can feel it in my loins.

http://i48.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/29cpe75.jpg
The hero of the story, Sir Quin. He is a "righteous" "Paladin". He spent all of his life thinking of [strike]cheap whores and gambling[/strike] adventure. He wishes to do good in the world and restore order to the Sword Coast. He is very strong and hardy, and quite handsome. However, he is quite a dull boy, so he'll pretty much just stick with bashing things and being a big hunky meat shield. :love:

But what is a hero without [strike]cannon fodder who will be replaced by other EoFFers when they inevitably die[/strike] comrades? Have no fear! Sir Quin has many steadfast and loyal allies who will never abandon him! But who are they?

http://i49.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/eva005.jpg
We have the great and wise Pike! Many years has she spent playing Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri and watching My Little Pony, so naturally she is very intelligent and surprisingly...athletic for some reason. Unfortunately, her constant geeking out has caused her to as strong as a box of Kleenex. Poor Pikey Wikey. :( Also, her sprite is quite...leggy if you know what I mean. :cool:

http://i45.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/jl30c7.jpg
Speaking of long legs, or the lack there of, we have the warrior-priest, I'm My Own Minister! Huxley is determined to spread his totally dogmatic secular humanism to the world at any cost! He's a decent fighter so he can be a one-man holy war if necessary, but his Wisdom grants him excellent healing capabilities. Yay!

http://i45.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/mcg7xj.jpg
Also, we have Shorty the Hippie, who's a druid for the double healing. She's a mediocre fighter, but her very high wisdom is sure to make her the main healer. Just don't ask to bathe. It won't work out. Hippies, you see.

http://i50.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/2ew3b7n.jpg
Australia is hard to survive in. With all the stuff that can kill you, you need to understand the wilderness. And that Jiro does! He has insanely good stats, and with his unnaturally high Strength and Dexterity, he'll be able to both wrangle dingos in the front and shoot kangaroos from the back. Also, his high Constitution will allow him to take stings from Box Jellyfish that would fell any lesser Anglo-Saxon. However, he has a low Charisma, causing him to have the social skills of Rain Man. He's a real excellent archer.

http://i49.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/2pzh11z.jpg
You see, any lame D&D party would have a thief. But not Sir Quin! He needs the most sexy, awesome, and totally not useless hero in the land! A guy so drop-dead sexy he has lust in his name. The sexual Renaissance Man, Laddy The Lustful! His really high Charisma causes him to be the hottest in the group, but his above-average brain and reflexes makes him a more versatile spellcaster and rogue as well. He will be a KILLING MACHINE. JUST YOU WANT. LIKE LIAM NEESON MEETS TEDDY ROOSEVELT INJECTED WITH BEE VENOM.

So we have the band of legendary heroes, but what about their equipment? Surely they cannot fell the hordes of darkness with their fists? Well, worry not! For Sir Quin has a large sum of money so he can go shop for weapons and armor!


http://i46.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/2va1or9.jpg
smurf you, fat ass. I'm a goddamn holy and pious Paladin, you ought to treat me with more respect. Douche. :mad2:

http://i45.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/35b9j5l.jpg
So Sir Quin gets all the best stuff, because he suggested I do this Let's Play. He has Splint Mail, a large shield, a bastard sword, and a helmet, making him a tank of sorts. Also, he wears white and red because I think they're good Paladin colors. Sue me.

http://i50.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/30il6rd.jpg
Despite resembling a pixelated Jessica Rabbit, Pike is still a wizard. A voluptuous one, but a wizard nonetheless. She can only use limited equipment. So she gets a staff. Awww...

http://i45.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/1zr2vjt.jpg
Charles Darwin has blessed Huxley with chainmail, a warhammer, a small shield, and a helmet that cover his eyes. He looks silly. Let's mock him!

http://i50.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/1zqwzkk.jpg
Pants are the man! Down with pants! Shorty gets leather armor and a spear, since Druids have a surprisingly diverse equipment selection. I guess she's one of those militant environmentalists. Y'know, the ones that say save the whales and then start killing tourists with AK-47's? She's one of those.

http://i46.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...bou:/cqa6o.jpg
Australia makes people blue. Everyone knows that. Jiro gets studded leather armor, as well as an axe and a bow. He uses the bow because he's so brave he fights ten yards away from the danger.

http://i47.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/2mnlq1e.jpg
And of course Laddy, in his intimidating Magenta and Sky Blue, rocks studded leather, a short sword, and a light crossbow. He carries a short sword since he doesn't need to compensate for anything. :jess:

http://i47.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/345oqpc.jpg
And the party walks down the road after dumping some quarterstaffs. Play this for enhanced epicness. There is no way this could possibly go wrong.

And so the epic adventure begins! Next Time: Daring Combat! Amazing Quests! Death! Betrayal! Pointing and Clicking!

Either use a different stance or get your mage out of the front lines.

What the smurf Laddy, were you born in a god damn barn?

I was in fact born in a barn. Thanks for reminding me. We wouldn't want Pike killed, now would we?

Well, I guess that all depends on how you feel about mages.

ENHANCED

Ooh, I look forward to following this. I give it 2 updates before Jiro lets Quin be killed so he can take over as the hero.

I like the huge leg slit in Pike's dress. Apparently she's going to seduce the monsters.

Pike is the party's temptress.

Although I am clearly high in Charisma, I feel that it was probably necessary to sacrifice awesome in one skill to be a little less game-breaking. I am looking forward to being second in command of this here adventure. Because I am clearly the only one with the skills to survive in the wild.

Yeah, after you realize you have made every single damn kill in the game up to this point, you'll understand why I lowered the one stat you make no use of.

Chapter 1: Old Friends and New Adventures

http://i50.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/2ewcwpj.jpg
After a quick stroll down the road, the party notices a neat little building, called the Barracks Obama. They decide to enter it based on the prospects of [strike]sleeping guardsmen and women[/strike] equipment.

http://i47.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/jsdhco.jpg
Oh look, a guy named Fuller! That's a stupid name. Maybe he has something for us to do!

http://i45.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/33z9xsw.jpg
Ok, you're fuller crap! Crossbow bolts? Really? That's just stupid. The Great Sir Quin does not waste his precious time performing shopping trips! Here, just take Laddy's little quiver, he doesn't use it!

http://i46.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/k3920i.jpg
O hai, experience. Anyway, Quin and Company walk done some more until the group sees a Bunkhouse. Excited by the further promise of willing participants in some fantasy roleplaying, they enter.

http://i45.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/350wb2x.jpg
Oooh! He's eager; he's headed right towards Pike! Hux won't like that!

http://i45.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/15mmt0g.jpg
Apparently Pike says Quin's dad is her dad for some reason, and so this scary guy takes out a dagger and attacks Pike! WILL SHE SURVIVE!?

http://i47.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/1zdafj6.jpg
She does. Jiro shoots and kills him in one hit. I seriously couldn't get a capture of the battle because it was that short. Jiro smurfing rules.

http://i45.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/2dnbx1.jpg
This dwarf seems quite shiny. What does he have to say?

http://i49.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/wbx9ad.jpg
Quin, you lazy bastard! Now we gotta kill rats! :mad2: You made this RPG cliche happen, Quin. You did.

http://i45.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/20tpiwy.jpg
Oh no! Rats! They'll kill us! They're attacking us! Will we ever survive these rodents?

http://i45.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/26426h0.jpg
One Word: Jiro. The rats are easily dispatched while the cats don't do anything. Lazy cats. You're lazier than Quin. :mad:

http://i48.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/whcos8.jpg
After taking the reward from the inexplicably holographic dwarf, we see a priest, and despite pretty much everyone in this party being an atheist, we pray for guidance on our journey. I mean really, what could be next? Space hamsters? I mean after rats and one dude with a butter knife announcing his desire to assault six fully armed people, some of which capable of casting fireballs, I'm willing to bet it gets a lot harder from here.

http://i49.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/25hkfhw.jpg
Dreppin. Have I said the names in this game can be pretty funny and stupid? No? Because they are. Hey, here's a game: add a bodily function after Dreppin. Hours of fun!

http://i50.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/2m7hx90.jpg
How does one leave a book in a pile of hay? Under what circumstances would that happen?

http://i49.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/2m6sui1.jpg
BALDUR'S GATE! AN INTENSE TACTICAL RPG IN WHICH YOU TAKE TEXTBOOKS OUT OF PILES OF HAY! Do you feel the 2nd edition Dungeons & Dragons yet?

http://i46.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/fdvrth.jpg
Shorty is hot for preacher, so she wanted to see her favorite monk...if ya know what I mean. ;)

http://i49.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/11lkkxw.jpg
His name is Shank? You're pretty much setting up your kid for a life of bounty hunting, aren't you? What parent names their kid after a term for a prison killing Who does that? Come on!

http://i47.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/347eall.jpg
Pike has little patience for this fellow, so she pretty much tells him to shut it. He didn't like that. What will happen?

http://i46.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/x1xfvb.jpg
Jiro will happen. Don't smurf with Jiro, man.

http://i49.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/2yyxvu8.jpg
Insert joke here.

http://i48.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/kd3g50.jpg
Don't make excuses. We know why you were by those cows.

http://i48.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/352llir.jpg
Anyway, here's your book. You freak.

http://i50.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/n56iiv.jpg
At least she gave us this nice gem my cursor covers! How nice.

Anyway, that's enough for today! Tune in next time for tragedy, heartache, and other stuff! Remember to floss!

I am so powerful. I will protect you all, never fear. Looking forward to slaying some bosses in one hit :aimsun:

I'm My Own Minister is bloody genius. This thread is already a success for that alone. xD

EDIT: I'm so troutty. :(

Pike is the party's temptress.

---

:smug:

So apparently Jiro is badass, Quin sucks, and Pike's legs just get you in trouble.

Pretty much what I expected.

:(

But I killed Shank. :(

I remember reading about a hardcore run where someone was a Wild Mage, gets a Wild Surge while fighting Shank, and summoned a Bebilith or something along those lines.

Best hardcore run ever.

Keep up the good work Laddy, my stalwart Dwarven axe shall not fail ye!

You killed a priest. Good one, smurfing devil worshipper.

I got a new Baldur's Gate II set. It's evil! Anyway, I've got the captures from the next episode, I just need to upload them, so expect a new episode after my class.

I'm kind of pissed you didn't make me a character since I was the one who asked why you weren't doing these. :colbert:

I'm kind of pissed you didn't include her too, because I've no interest in that Pike trollop. :mad:

And you think someone named Tifa's Boobs would be less of a trollop?

How dare you, sir. Sam is a woman of chastity and virtue.

I have an entire list of EoFFers to be included because Quin's bunch of pansies are probably going to die soon. You are now first on the list, so as soon as one of these clowns die, you take their spot. Is that ok? I thought you were referring to my Realms of Arkania LP, but I'll be sure to add you in once one of these jokers get killed.

I'm sure he was already planning on an accurate representation. :p

Chapter 2: Coming of the Storm

http://i46.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...bou:/bizwx.jpg
Quin, despite being completely unprepared, elects to just go on ahead with whatever crap Gorion wants him to do. He just loves his dad, you see.~

http://i50.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/24y6c6p.jpg
Daddy tells Lil' Quinny that if they should ever get seperated, he should head to the Friendly Arm Inn and meet up with some of Gorion's buddies. Like that'll ever happen, though. No foreshadowing here, folks!

http://i45.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/33u7vpk.jpg
Well...this looks ominous...

http://i45.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/huocnt.jpg
Oh no.

http://i49.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/2ex5vdl.jpg
Oh dear.

http://i45.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/27yu81x.jpg
Oh crap.

http://i46.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...bou:/dske0.jpg
Oh trout! Gorion is a badass! He killed two ogres by himself! Surely this old mothersmurfer can take the metal dude, can't it? Well, no. Because Quin ran away like a pussy as soon as things got bad.

http://i45.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/2ltoimx.jpg
The Armored Guy killed Gorion. :( But what did he want with Quin?

http://i45.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/2zs5sfp.jpg
The next morning, Quin meets up with his friends and despite giving [strike]up and running away[/strike] it his all to save his dear father, he is now with nowhere to turn. Candlekeep won't take him back, especially after deflowering all of the nuns and peeing in the guards' beds. So he must press on into the world he barely knows.

http://i50.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/xnapah.jpg
By the way, here's my new party formation. I have the stronger characters up front, save for Jiro, who stays in the back so he doesn't get melee penalties to his awesome bow skills.

http://i50.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/w06wax.jpg
Before the party leaves, Quin insists upon heading north a ways but why?

http://i45.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...bou:/bkby1.jpg
To loot the corpse of his beloved adoptive father and mentor, of course. I mean, why not? It's what he would've wanted! :kakapo:

http://i49.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/2v7x7rk.jpg
Didn't Pike's parents tell her dressing like a trollop will attract diseases? :roll2

http://i48.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/mjtm5e.jpg
No matter. Jiro kills the poor thing before anyone even reaches it. :mad:

http://i49.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/110iopi.jpg
Little known fact: The Friendly Arm Inn is in fact a whorehouse, and are particular noted for their high-quality handjobs. The more you know!

http://i50.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/2sbl8ae.jpg
After traveling north via the world map, the group reaches the Friendly Arm Inn at night, just in time for its late night specials.

http://i50.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/dc4s39.jpg
Before heading directly into the Inn, however, the group wraps around to kill some hobgoblins, which Hux and I both take out. Jiro totally played no part here. It was all ours!

http://i50.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/1o7s01.jpg
Then this ONE GUY comes after our group of six and Jiro promptly drives an arrow into his walnut-sized skull. Sigh. Jiro gets all the fun and dismemberment.

http://i49.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/6ifcw2.jpg
Oh look, there's more! The battle turns into a bit of a clustersmurf, but no one takes any damage, because Quin apparently decided to finally be useful a kill a couple of them. And yes, our hero and paladin is the last person to get his first kill in the party.

http://i48.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/211q8p1.jpg
So yeah, Quin takes a ring from one of the hobgoblins. But he's no being greedy! He's NEVER do that!

http://i47.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/25qyyys.jpg
He was just planning to give it back to a woman who's parents felt consonants were overrated! The party even has a reputation increase because of it!

http://i49.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/3534dhl.jpg
Anyway, the party is almost at the inn. Yay!

http://i45.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/2vs439k.jpg
Oh, is this one of the rent boys here to greet us? Wait a second, something's wrong here...

http://i46.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/33kvyxj.jpg
http://i46.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/33kvyxj.jpg

http://i50.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/t8kp4x.jpg

http://i48.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/jfgmjm.jpg
:| Hux is dumb. :colbert:

http://i48.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/30kvw9k.jpg
This guy's not too tough, but he can be pretty scary if he lets out some tougher spells before you can take him down.

http://i48.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/zxs1ur.jpg
Which the group did, with little issue. However, what did he want with the party, and why are men so eager to find Quin? What's so special bout him? We may never know...

Tune in next time for sex, drugs, and spiders!

Yes, I'm finally a man! Y'see, because I'm a Paladin, I'm all chivalrous and trout, so I wanted everybody else to go first.

I'm not a terrible warrior, I'm just polite.

First time I ever played BG Tarnesh wiped the floor with me so hard I thought you were meant to lose.

Yeah, he's pretty damn tough for such an early boss. He has very little HP but if you don't take him out quick you're smurfed. I had Pike cast Magic Missile instantly to cancel his Mirror Image and he fell before he could cast Chain Lightning, so I got lucky.

More importantly, why does everyone think that everyone in the party is Quin except for Quin?

I can only imagine it's because people just assume Sir Quin must be one of the useful party members. :p

Quin is essentially the main character and everyone else is supporting cast, which is why everyone refers to everyone as Quin. I think it's a bug, because sometimes they act like they're talking to Quin and sometimes they don't. Baldur's Gate does have a few minor bugs.

The greatest thing about this playthrough is also its biggest flaw: you have a custom party. That is good for inserting forum members in, but bad because you miss out on recruiting a cast of awesome, namely Minsc.

Yeah, I had a big issue with not being able to get some of my favorite characters, namely Minsc, Dynaheir, Edwin, Imoen, and Kivan. I still think I elected to go with the right choice for this particular LP, but I strongly suggest that anyone who wishes to play this to go ahead and play solo, as the characters who join you party are amongst the best-written in video games.

Please. I'm covered in expensive plate. I'm clearly the only person worth a damn in this party.

I reject the idea that we will fail on our mission. I am clearly invincible, and supported by the likes of Laddy and MILF, we are unstoppable. Quin the pussy wimp can just hang with the women who are relaxing and keeping in fine physical form.

Sounds good to me. Have fun with the yeti and the ponce, elf scum! :radred:

New episode by Sunday. I promise.

Hey!

Hey, Laddy!

Sunday's come and gone! :(

Chapter 3: Things Get Real

http://i46.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/2s0ya06.jpg
So we entered a bar and prompty get drunk at the propspect of our most recent assassination attempt. Naturally, w ehead upstairs to take a nap.

http://i49.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/29ash10.jpg
When we find this gnome fellow who appears to have an infestation of bugs. (Heh.) Quin, being the valiant soul he is, quickly volunteers.

http://i48.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...bou:/m0sbo.jpg
We head south to Beregost, where we're somehow attacked by an unusual alliance of wild dogs and half-ogres. Hmm, oddly specific. Anyway, it seems even the dogs want Pike.

http://i48.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/20adowk.jpg
The party makes not-to-quick work of them, with Jiro and myself getting a bit torn up in the carnage. No matter, Shorty and Hux will cast a few Cure Light Wounds and we'll be on our way.

http://i46.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/f58wg9.jpg
PETA can kiss my ass, they attacked me first!

http://i47.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...bou:/5zghh.jpg
Anyway, I looked at some interesting statistics. Here is the great and brave Quin's number of kills...
http://i49.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/29em7nt.jpg
And here is Jiro's. Damn.

http://i47.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...bou:/3an8y.jpg
These things attacked us again, but Jiro took out two of them and Pike threw a magic missile at the other. We are unstoppable!

http://i48.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/2w6tb8w.jpg
Here's Beregost! Before we head to the gnome's house to play the Orkin Man, we have to rest.

http://i46.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/eg49jn.jpg
Uh oh.

http://i49.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/2l96yk1.jpg
Quin, being a fool, tries to be nice to these inbred mothersmurfers.

http://i49.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/16lcpjk.jpg
It doesn't work, obviously. But Quin still insists on being the absolute worst person in the party.

http://i47.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/2uzw7lk.jpg
Well, this can't go well.

http://i49.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/2llzsdw.jpg
And there we have it, our brave adventurers killing an unarmed man in a bar fight. He wasn't messin' around, though. Damn, he nearly killed Shorty.

http://i47.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/fknntx.jpg
After resting some more, the party finds the guy's house with the "small infestation". Holy trout.

http://i46.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/15hyll.jpg
They even poison Jiro, those smurfers! That's not a very good sign!

http://i48.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/33jjxnc.jpg
Thankfully, due to Shorty's "Slow Posion" spell, Jiro just barely misses out being sent to Ayres Rock. Whew. But it looks like we're gonna have to be more careful if this group will make out alive, things just got real.

If you click on the musical notes on their pictures, does it tell you what they're listening to on Spotify?

Wow, I didn't expect that to work so quickly. Good work, man. xD

I don't like the idea of a holy Paladin killing an unarmed lout, so it's fortunate that I contribute so little to this party, ho ho ho.

Although, doing 10% of the damage of a 6 person party is alright...

This is excellent so far. :D Might I suggest that every time you stop playing you leave a choice to be made for the party ("We can go north or east from here. Where to?"; "Do we help the dryad? Or the treasure hunters? Or run away?") and let the audience decide. Doesn't need to be anything major, just to engage people more :)

Don't don't really think that's necessary. It's an Let's Play, not EoFF Plays.

Also, it'd take forever.

Not every decision, just whatever is handy when he's about to stop playing. If no consensus has been reached when he starts playing, he just makes the decision himself. It'd take literally no extra time at all.

Yeah, I mean look at the Oregon Trail thread. :roll2

lu pike

No, actually, that's a fine idea. I won't do it often, but only during critical points if you guys are up for it.

I hate big spiders. I hope they died a painful death.

I also like Rantz's idea.

Episode coming soon!

You think I'd be used to poison. Nope. Thank you Shorty for saving me! smurfing spiders, they're pretty big even by Australian standards.

Playing through it right, new episode should be up by Thursday. ;)

Episode 4: Death of a Friend...?

http://i48.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/6gew6a.jpg
We start off with learning that Shorty broke her weapon. Sure, you may have saved Jiro's life but breaking your weapon? smurfing inexcusable!

http://i49.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/2s0fhat.jpg
Anyway, we gather the necessary items and go outside to sleep, but this asshole woke us up. So what we can't sleep in the streets!? We voted for Ron Paul; rules mean nothing! So, we leave town to rest. We need to restore Shorty, Pike, and Hux's spells for the day.

http://i46.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/2m76zki.jpg
Two people totally did it. Hint: it's not who you think.

http://i50.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/193xcg.jpg
Not only did that punk kid see the whole thing, but these pricks interrupted the fun. To arms!

http://i50.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/kcxr0h.jpg
Even though Jiro's almost dead, he still kicks ass. smurf yeah!

http://i50.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/16k2s6p.jpg
So again. Oh my! Someone reloads quickly. :flirt:

http://i49.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/35idid0.jpg
So anyway, we walk down a bit and these things show up and pummel Pike down to one hit point. Jiro totally botches his shot and things don't look good.

http://i45.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/9742nm.jpg
Quin gets his ass pounded too, but since he has an excellent Constitution score, the damage didn't fell him like it would most other characters. Still, he's smurfed up badly.

http://i50.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/2r77j9z.jpg
Hux lands a critical hit on the last one and it literally explodes into little meaty bits, so he's the MVP of the battle! (Suck it, Jiro!)

http://i45.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...bou:/fs21t.jpg
All the sudden, this asshole appears. Who the smurf are you!?

http://i45.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/ndwjfs.jpg
Oh, Quin. So pure, so innocent, so stupid.

http://i46.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/14weuro.jpg
Wrong choice. Who do you think you are, me?

http://i46.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/1ftht5.jpg
Quin decides to grow a smurfing spine and resists arrest LIKE A BOSS. So now it's a fight to the death.

http://i47.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/2dt6s61.jpg
Luckily he dies before he could do any harm. Yay! Better yet, we get our first set of plate armor for Quin so know he'll suck at not getting hit less. Yay! Now onwards to the next area! Nothing bad could possibly happen there!

http://i48.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/5oza0n.jpg
Lad di da dee, what a fine day in the evening, we are great friends who shall al surely survive this journey~ We shall not be attacked by a group of seven hobgoblins with bows~

http://i48.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/311kglv.jpg
W...what? NOOOOOOO! Hux has died! They shot two arrows at him before I could even catch the screenshot. YOU BASTARDS. :cry:

http://i50.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/14od2p.jpg
The coward ran away from the scene of the crime, but Quin ran after him, swearing to avenge his fallen comrade.


http://i47.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/2n6fdpd.jpg
Jiro shoots the guy and he explodes into little meaty bits as well. Serves him right! But now our beloved friend and priest, the great dwarf I'm My Own Minister, is dead. What will Pike do? :cry:

http://i47.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/21dhkso.jpg
Oh well. New character time! This is Tifa's Boobs, a halfling thief with an insane dexterity and pink hair. Pink. Hair. How is she not the coolest member of the party yet?

http://i46.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/15wgcgy.jpg
We salvaged Hux's stuff and gave her leather armor and a short sword to start. Booyah! Looks like she'll fit right it in, with those...sizable...assets.

Anyway, stay tuned for the next episode!

THE GRAVEYARD
I'm My Own Minister
Neutral Good+Dwarf+ Fighter/Cleric-->Double Penetrated by Hobgoblin Arrows in Episode 4

YES. Someone sucks slightly more than me! I love everything about this. xD

Lulz are to be had here.

Glad you're enjoying it!

I've got the next part done, I just need to upload. It's short, but I'll let you guys decide what I do next.

YEEEEEEES.

Episode 5: The Journey Forward
http://i48.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/5mk607.jpg
While Hux may have passed, Shorty and Quin got pretty banged up that last battle too. So we need to stop and rest to recover our spells.

http://i50.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/3321lp2.jpg
*Dragon Quest sleep jingle* Well, I sure hope nothing bad happens. :monster:

http://i50.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/21jw4xt.jpg
Oh trout.

http://i50.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/35kk3n9.jpg
Jiro manages to kill both of them pretty quickly. Jiro, man, he's insane. Here's a tip: Elf bow-users with high Dexterity are killer in this game. Kivan and Coran are excellent NPC's if you're going solo to fit this role.

http://i47.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/orow9k.jpg
Shorty heals us up with her spells and we approach Nashkel, the city with the iron shortage.

http://i48.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/fxe2br.jpg
This guy is a douchebag. Just wanted to point that out.

http://i50.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/2aalw7a.jpg
And we arrive late for Nashkel. We decide to hit up the inn for a night's sleep because the party was beginning to get a bit sleepy.

http://i47.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/35cikbm.jpg
Who is this fine lady to greet us? Oh, is she approaching Pike?

http://i46.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/ogx4s6.jpg
Apparently even the ladies aren't immune to Pike's charms, so she approaches her give this warning. Uh oh.

http://i48.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/vwy3jc.jpg
This chick seems to be a cleric, because she casts debuffs and stauses on the party, making her the hardest assassin yet.

http://i47.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/29kugjb.jpg
Quin scores a good hit on her, but she then manages to Hold Person on Quin and Pike, making them (even more) useless.

http://i47.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/2hnbdxs.jpg
The key is to spread out the party so her spells' Area of Effect can't spead past them. Jiro and I shoot her while Tifa's Boobs and Shorty (still with no weapon) engaged her in melee.

http://i50.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/2pqub2a.jpg
And down she goes. Tifa's Boobs manages to fell her before she got that last spell cast, which was awesome because a few more moments and something bad would've happen. She's a keeper. :bigsmile:

http://i45.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/20z1ufo.jpg
I then take the entire party back to The Friendly Arm Inn to turn in the quest for clearing out the spiders. It was a long trip.

http://i46.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/2da0w05.jpg
Oh my god. This bitch is blocking the way. There is literally no way up. OH MY GOD.

http://i45.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/2rhxv7k.jpg
Shut up, I need to go upstairs!

http://i49.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/50o95v.jpgSo after like, two minutes, the old wench moves and we head back upstairs and turn in the quest. From there, we have three options.

A) Go back to Nashkel and clear out the mines.
B) Head to the Carnival for a few minutes of fun.
C) Go out and explore the wilderness to level.

It's up to you what we do next. Vote!

Oh! I was so close to being useful, I could almost taste it.

I place my vote... por Carnivale!

A few minutes of fun? What could go wrong!

I love that Huxley, the only person to ever steal MVP from me, was the one that died. I am literally unbeatable now.

Carnival is it.

The carnival is a bit lacklustre. Although I do like Oopah, so yay! :bigsmile:

I chose Carnival because I'm fairly certain I will die if I ever go outside again.

Although, now that I think about it, I have a feeling Laddy may have set a trap in suggesting that the Carnival was not a dangerous place... :shifty:

Episode 6: La Carnivale
http://i47.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/14tbqlk.jpg
Time to depart for the Carnival! What could possibly go wrong?

http://i47.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...u:/2mdo2mf.jpg
Oh yay! I'm so excited. :excited:

http://i47.:bou::bou::bou::bou::bou:...ou:/2jxxlg.jpg
Oh well, that not too bad. :|

http://i1359.photobucket.com/albums/...3-08-45-54.png
Well, that's not too bad, they only fell the three most useful characters in the party in two rounds. Not too big of a deal.

http://i1359.photobucket.com/albums/...3-08-53-76.png
And Pike. Well, who needs a mage?

http://i1359.photobucket.com/albums/...3-08-58-18.png
Or a thief? And now all I got is Quin? Is this some sort of cosmic vendetta being played against me?

http://i1359.photobucket.com/albums/...3-09-13-92.png
Well, that didn't go well. :colbert:

http://i1359.photobucket.com/albums/...3-11-43-12.png
After a quick reload, we managed to reach the Carnival and kill a few Kobolds. Yay, carnival time!

http://i1359.photobucket.com/albums/...3-15-43-98.png
After some shopping(!), we entered a tent and found this going on. Dearest me!
http://i1359.photobucket.com/albums/...3-15-46-92.png
Pike knows what it's like to be a mage, so she pipes and starts a fight because she has no idea what she's getting into. :colbert:

http://i1359.photobucket.com/albums/...3-16-00-08.png
smurf. He casts Mirror Image immediately, so we'll have to take him down as fast as we possibly can.

http://i1359.photobucket.com/albums/...16-11-18-1.png
He proceeds to cast Panic, affecting everyone but Jiro. Is he awesome or what!? He also manages to pull off a few shots and hit him. Seriously, you can solo him.

http://i1359.photobucket.com/albums/...16-16-78-1.png
We manage to penetrate (heh) through his copies, and now it's just a matter of time. Hope he doesn't pull off anymore spells anytime soon.

http://i1359.photobucket.com/albums/...16-20-25-1.png
Hell yes and he goes down! Despite the lack of damage dealt, we were constantly teetering on the edge of disaster. If he managed to pull off too many spells (like, two) someone would die. Thankfully, my Bard Song managed to contribute to the successful hit rate, and Pike's spells managed to cancel some of his. (Another reason why ALL MAGES should have Magic Missile, it can cancel spells.)

http://i1359.photobucket.com/albums/...16-27-08-1.png
Well Quin, at least you're not cheap. :/

http://i1359.photobucket.com/albums/...3-16-49-87.png
And we got this cool little thing! We'll definitely used this during the next boss battle. In addition, we got some new spells for Pike as well as a robe for her. Pike definitely benefited from this battle.

Next Episode: Exploration!

A hobbit thief with big boobs and pink hair.You done good, son.

Jiro is the ultimate. trout's going down? I don't panic. Nope. Just fire my arrows like a boss.

I knew we were all going to die going to the Carnival though xD

What the hell, guys? I expected it of me, but all of you? :mad2:

Also, Jiro may be the first to kill, but I'm the last to die. :smug:

New episode within two days. :monster:

NO LADDY NOW

Hey guys, I'm not done with the episode yet, but I have an announcement to make. In a few days, a remake of Baldur's Gate, with new characters, art, quests, areas, and an improved engine is going to be released for $20. Why am I asking you to do this? Several reasons.

Reason 1. It's a great game that will be improved with a slew of original content. I suggest it for those who missed out when it was originally released over 14 years ago.

Reason 2. If this is successful, the even better Baldur's Gate II and Planescape: Torment will likely get remade.

Reason 3. If this does very well, Baldur's Gate III will become a very real possibility, with Obsidian, BioWare, and the newly-revived Black Isle rumored to be showing interest in developing the sequel. This would fulfill a twelve-year dream for one of my favorite things ever to continue.

So if you're interested, you can pre-purchase the direct download here.

P.S. I know I shouldn't advertise and I'm not affiliated with Beamdog, Black Isle, or any corporation. I just wanna spread the word. :) If this post is problematic, then taking it down is fine.

Anyway, new episode soon!

Aww, my onboard graphics thing can't handle it. :(

Okay, so I can't upload the episode for now because I'm at my parents' house and they didn't want me to drive up the internet bill so eh.

Ah, good, I had some episodes to catch up on. I see the holy preacher MILF managed to seduce Laddy in the tents before succumbing to the great beyond. His replacement proved useful, though I'm not sure how Boobies can be very stealthy and inconspicuous with pink hair and such big boobs.

I have a problem. I want to continue this Let's Play but my laptop in which the game is installed on is currently inoperable. I'll try to have it repaired soon, so look within the next week for progress on this LP.
