Let's play: Prisoner of Ice

[Stereotypical Villain]

Your wish is my command, Master Chauncey.

... right after i deliver some more liver of lizard to the chancellor.

 

[Stereotypical Villain]

Welcome back to "let's never update: prisoner of ice"!

Ryan is now all alone in the captain's office... Now, i wanted to steal some things in here, but Ryans afraid that the... uh... "guy" we were going to meet up with was gonna walk in on us pillaging the crap out of this fancy office.

So let's walk out that door and not turn around now cause we don't need this room anymore. Ryan's got his own life to live etc etc.

Pretty damned smooth, Ryan.

So back in we go to search for the "trigger" that causes the good quarter-master to arrive. Hmm... How about this?

Jinkies! A clue!

Maybe there's something in the other drawer as well?

Sigh... Let's investigate his desk then.

... and let's take the paper.

Okay then! I'm going to steal the pencil! Take that Captain Sears!

... oh, it's none interactable. Fun.

Anyway, let's investigate the calendar.

Let's see... Random notes with numbers? It's a safe combination puzzle. Okay, i'll just write this down for when i ACTUALLY get to toy around with the safe. Anyway...

-some time later-

AHA! I found a pixel-size pack of smokes. (Damned game)

-some time later (again)-

A very small ID file which is not nailed down. Let's loot it.

And...

Pleasant type.

What the hell? Hamsun turned into some sort of mist and went throught the vent to... some place. We'll just have to find out the next time!

PS. I'd be happy if any of you could recommend a good screenshot program cause i'm getting mighty tired of using print screen and paint. Thanks in advance!

 

[ghostdog]

Aww man, you've been using print screen all this time ? :shock: Dosbox can take screenshots...

CTRL-F5 Save a screenshot. (png)

 

[Stereotypical Villain]

I am such a god damned idiot!

Thank you, ghostdog.

 

[Major_Boobage]

3P1C fail. Nice one Stereotypical Alt.

 

[Stereotypical Villain]

General discussion is further down the forum, null-tool.

 

[Major_Boobage]

There is no bad place to laugh at you SA.

Good lp, do continue

 

[Wyrmlord]

I am such a god damned idiot!

Thank you, ghostdog.

You are not.

Taking videos, recording sound, and taking screenshots are not things that most of us would bother to find out about DOSBox, considering that most of the time, it's just typing in commands and increasing CPU cycles.

It's all there in the readme, but nobody ever normally thinks, "I should check up all the media features on it; I might want to do a LP someday."

I never even knew of Ctrl+F5 until several months ago. I only happened upon it on wanting to see how to record sound from a game.

 

[Redlands]

I was wondering what the fuck was up with that open book that was hovering in midair and then fell to the floor.

Then I realized it was the mouse pointer (?)

 

[Major_Boobage]

btw dosbox can also record videos. Handy for youtube.

The mouse pointer turns into a book whenever you're interacting with something. I try to leave it out most of the times, but sometimes i forget about it entierly.

 

[DarkUnderlord]

I like the way he thrusts his crotch forward when he stands. That's the sign of a real man, with balls of meat.

 

[Stereotypical Villain]

Holy crap an update! The planets must be aligned or something.

We're free to leave Captain Sears office now that we've got our duty roster.

Gee, i wonder what's happening down there? :wink:

So then... We're free to poke around. I do belive there's a film on the now unoccupied desk...

Let's grab it...

... and get the heck out of here.

Looks like we walked into the radio room. let's talk to the guy sitting there.

Ooookay. Out to the hallway again then, but this time we'll go through the other door.

A wardrobe? Let's check it out.

TEH WIT!

Since the wardrobe yielded nothing i'm going to go ahead and go through the door right next to it.

... and now through the door at the end of this hallway.

Bingo! It's the projectionist.

Time to ask some question.

So he likes ciggs and can't get to them cause he's confined to this room, eh? But before we get to that, let's ask him about Quincy.

And now we shall ask him about the personnel files.

Okay then, let's get down to business...

:D

So now a projectionist owes us a favor. But whatever could he do for us, hmm?

So let's give it to him.

And off he goes...

Next time we'll watch a very interesting film which'll reveal a tiny bit of the story. Until then...

[Darth Roxor]

I love how all the character models stand like 'real men'.

 

[ghostdog]

Mclaglen is also showing distinct signs of manhood with the way he walks.

 

[Gragt]

Broomsticl up the ass?

 

[someone else]

My LP, now abandoned because DU doesn't want anymore decline. (Gotta blaim someone!)

Too much effort?

 

[Stereotypical Villain]

The game really starts sucking after Edwards Base, i got sick of it.

If anything i'll make amends by doing a LP of an old favorite of mine: Normality. Take a look at the intro and then decide if you want me to play through this game.

Ps. I have the original CD.

 

[Devadatta]

Ps. I have the original CD.

Me too, go for it!

That's the most dislikable PC I've seen in ages.

Still, go for it.

 

[ghostdog]

Go for it. Ithink I never actually finished Normality but I remember it being a nice game. I think the freeware version doesn't have VO.

 

[Stereotypical Villain]

I finished it back when i was eight, and i've got to say that i still remember most parts of the game.

The crowd has spoken and there shall be normality.

 

[poocolator]

Yeah... normally if it's too stiff, it won't slide as easily without lube.

 

[ElectricOtter]

where's my normality :evil:
