Top 5 fun streams you've done
I'll even include CLIPS where I can dog I love streaming
The David Cage/QD Streams. I'm lumping them together bc frankly Fahrenheit, B2S & Heavy Rain could take my top 3. They're some of the most fun I've ever had streaming and I loved that 6-8mo span so much It's UNREAL.

THE SECOND BEYOND 2 SOULS STREAM. I know I just said I was lumping them, but that stream was so much fun. I had a single goal: beat Beyond 2 Souls in one sitting. I let my chat pay money to reset the game, increasing in $5 increments each time (so $5, $10, etc). They could pool money to reach goals.
We did not beat B2S. Eventually, I gave them an incentive goal to replay just the party chapter over and over, and I know we were in the double digits for playing that stupid goddamn thing. It was an absolutely harrowing experience, 11/10 would do it again.
just trying to use the toiler
THE SUNDAY BIBLEMAN/D&D STREAMS. I had so, SO much fun showing both Bibleman and the old Dungeons and Dragons cartoon (I want to do a rewatch of both tbh!).
Bibleman is such a supremely fascinating show to me as someone raised Catholic (it's DEEPLY evangelical) bc it's like "this is fucking insane" but also... Willie Aames really cared about that project. There's something I love about his run as Bibleman and it really is that even if I clown hard on a lot of its messaging (and the overt, overt HORNINESS of that show): you can tell it meant so much to him. You can see what being Bibleman meant to him esp in the last few episodes and his last live show. He loved that role the way actors love "their" characters- the way Harrison Ford loves Indie, Margot Robbie loves Harley Quinn, etc. That man put so much into Bibleman and it's genuinely so endearing. Dunno why he spent so much time being bondaged up and estimmed but we don't judge!
D&D gets lumped in here partially bc Willie Aames is in that series and also because it was a beloved Sunday ritual too. There's something so charming about a show made well before D&D had any strong, cohesive story. Especially a show made in Japan with no real connection to the (niche) D&D culture growing in the west. I actually mourn that they never got to fully finish it: as weird, jank, and downright bad as the initial episodes are, that back half had some INSANELY cool stuff going on. The reveal on what that world actually was is so cool for essentially a kid's cartoon that I won't spoil it here. But It's just as endearing to me as Bibleman, and I am the exact target audience WOTC is looking for whenever they releae D&DAS stuff now

THE REMEDY STREAMS!!! Again lumping AW1 and Control here together, because truly they could both round out this list. I am SUCH a tremendous Remedy fan: I watched my brother play Max Payne 1 at the age of like, 6, and I have been Sam Lake's child ever since. Alan Wake 1 is also, literally, the game that made me want to become a streamer. I saw the ending of that game for the first time on some backwater /v/ stream, saw the way everyone collectively geeked, and went "I want to bring this feeling to people." I had so much fun playing thru it and getting to do just that!
And Control? Is now in my top games of all time. I already liked it bc of its relation to AW1 and I knew plenty about it because of that. But actually experiencing it? Ugh. Control made me feel like what Max Payne 1 & 2 did. It made me feel differently about what games could be than I did before I played it. Jesse Faden is such peak "I'm probably a lesbian but I'm way too busy to worry about that rn". Her ass is insane.
screw the government we have BOLTCUTTERS | stag and hubris THIS IS ABOUT CONTROL I AM ABOUT TO LOSE IT
I know it's top 5 but I literally cant pick between HOW THE SAINTS SAVED XMAS FEAT. @ashelymiami or THE LIFE IS STRANGE STREAMS.
SR4 is such an easy pick because like... dog, Ashely might be the most frustratingly funny person in the world. It is a WORKOUT going beat-for-beat comedically with her. Getting a laugh out of her makes me feel like God. Collabing with Ashely is just such a blast and I genuinely feel like she is right there with Mephi for "people who just make me seem infinitely funnier by merit of hitting Go Live with them".

LiS ofc because like... I loved sharing those games with people LMAO. For all my huge gripes with them, I think their character writing is just sooo interesting to delve into. BtS Chloe and her journal were just... so momentous to me in 2017: I don't think I've ever seen a character whose internal dialogue about her own grief hit my own so hard, and it was genuinely a delight watching ppl fall in love her with the same way I did in 2017.
Also she spoke Japanese briefly, which was extremely funny

[18+] MCONALDS HOMERPHOBIA ARC
I'm very fortunate to like... have mostly loved every stream I've ever done LMAO. This was hard to narrow down bc I love my fortnite streams too, but I loved the Halo ones... but I loved Doom as well it's like! Idk, I'm very lucky to have the audience I do and to succeed more than I flop. They really do kind of show up for the vibe and the feeing of hanging out yapping than they necessarily do the game, and I really hope everyone knows what a special thing that is to me
(My perhaps favourite stream I've ever been on remains Ashely's annual Gungeon stream. I will cry the day that THIS CLIP is not the top clip on Ashely's channel. You have no idea. I have an IM NOT WEIRD IM QUIRKY sticker in my Discord bc of it. It's everything to me)
