Over the last five months the inbox got over 150, and only about half of them are about a possible future MGSV LP, so you know the drill:
Is there a possibility of another season of Anime Theater?
Probably not. Even with only using unlicensed shows we still had to deal with copyright headaches and there's nothing around the corner that screams anime to me. But then I always say to never say never.
Have you guys ever considered doing an LP for Frog Fractions? Has some nice easter eggs for Chip to show off and would be easy to do an entertaining commentary for, especially if Ironicus hasn't played it.
Frog Fractions speaks for itself. Everyone go play Frog Fractions. It's highly educational.
Chip has made it pretty clear Viewtiful Joe, Wonderful 101 and Killer7 are among his favorite games. How is it that he has such good taste?
I'm a good influence.
Why have you stopped making retsupuraes?
We stopped? News to me. The editing of new RP videos keeps getting knocked down the priority list but it is on there. I'd be really interested in finding a new source of riff material to branch into, like how Retsupurae recently started their Kickstarter Non-starters.
What is your opinion on using the terms "cuhrayzee," "ssstylish," or "platinum-brand action" to differentiate games like Metal Gear Rising and God Hand from games like God of War in terms of skill level and depth?
Only one of those will be recognized by a dictionary, so I'm okay with that one.
For years I have imagined Ironicus as a huge grizzled army dude with a beard. The illusion is broken!
Like this? http://www.toymania.com/news/images/0702_marcswim.jpg
I was wondering what you guys thought of the game MadWorld.
It's the first game we planned on doing then didn't. It was just after NMH and we didn't want to be "the violent Wii game guys", so we did MGS3 instead, and the rest is history.
Why are all of your recent posts about 13th Age?
First, I think you'll find they're predominately about our C2E2 panel and related content. Second, LP13A (and the whole, brand-new 6FU banner) is awesome.
I watch a lot of your Lets Plays, and I like the banter between you both. You both strike me as good friends, but I've been wondering... have you ever fallen out over anything?
It's like the movie 21 Jump Street in that any disagreement we have is short lived because we're bros and we know it. It's also like 21 Jump Street because of the time I made a chicken truck explode while wearing tights.
I want in the party lol. You guys just have way to much fun
ChipandIronicus.com is where everyone can party.
Ironicus, I love you but it's time we focused on mass market appeal. The people want cute voiced commentators on their LPs. We're going to have to replace you with Shmorky. Chip and Shmorky LPs begins now.
Well according to this Shmorky doesn't even rate: http://strawpoll.me/1790318/r
(I love Shmorky's stuff in Lowtax's LPs)
Did Ironicus ever end up playing MGR himself?
Please buy me a PS4. And maybe a car. Also a dog while you're at it.
I'm fairly new to you guys and your videos, and recently watched the Uncharted 2 playlist. Anyway, what was the story about the bliptv stuff?
Blip never treated its creators very well unless you were top-tier. They were heavily monetized and pushed at the expense of growth, development, and community. We all put up with it because they were higher quality and had less restrictions. It was also a time when the first "professional" LPers were breaking out and we wanted to talk about it. The blip theater stuff was a way to thumb our nose at them when they started being real jerks, around the same time as MGS:PW. The stuff in the early Uncharted 2 videos was our way of holding up a mirror and asking "Is this where we want LP to go?". Our viewers answer was such a strong "No" that they didn't even want jokes about it in our stuff, so it went away pretty early.
will you ever LP another MDickie game? in fact can you please just play more You Testament, that was pretty much the greatest LP ever
They're all way too similar for me to see a point, but I'll recommend SuperGreatFriend's stream videos of all of them. "Wrecked!" is a treasure.
Do you plan on ever doing a Let's Play of Wonderful 101?
By the end of this month.
Do you watch any wrestling other than NXT? And who is your favourite wrestler in NXT?
I don't watch any wrestling, but Aiden English was a college friend of mine. He does indeed have a degree in theatre and is a trained actor. He was never in a musical though. He would have been at my wedding if he weren't too busy punching people for money.
Hey, so why's Ironicus all nerdin' out over all that John Dee fellow like some sort of nerd? Is his actual name Clarence Dee or something?
I like when people do their homework. Doubly so when the homework is something as interesting as espionage and the occult in Victorian England. That shit was nuts!
I've been watching your LPs for about 5 years. Which says something, because I generally hate LPs. I also make dumb video game videos, so I have some understanding of how much work you put into what you do. I just wanted to thank you for it, because I really enjoy the results.
I appreciate that. Good luck, we're all in this dumb game video boat together.
Is there a podcast for Heroic Tier of LPDND anywhere? The original videos all got taken down and I'm not sure if there's anywhere else to watch or listen to it.
Zorak was kind enough to archive the whole thread here. Thanks Zorak!
When will you LP Prince of Persia?
If I had more time I'd consider doing this one solo. God I love that game.
hi, guys. i first discovered you when i was 18 and going through a very brutal split from an abusive ex. i think watching your videos way back when was one of the main things that kept me going- here's a belated thank you from me, four years later. (also, an apology for sending silly questions to your formsprings all the time. in my defense, i never sent any creepy/sexual ones!!)
And here's a belated "hang in there" from me.
Do you find it hard to hide the fact that you're gay?
No, Chip has an actual beard. The beard you're thinking of is metaphorical.
If they made another Fiddy Cent game, what kind of features would you want in it? I would like the ability to pull things from the fiddy zone, but I'd like to know what you
IT IS THE YEAR 50XX. YOU MUST SAVE THE CRYSTAL SKULL OF THE PRESIDENT. TONY YAYO IS DEAD. JIGGLE HIPS.
Hey, I read that you guys RP whenever you have tim, material, and motivation. Are you okay with people sending in terrible, interesting, or quirky LPs they find or is that kind of a bad idea?
I am super okay with people taking care of 1/3 of those requirements so I don't have to.
Ironicus is the only person outside of my family that I've heard mention Lost Skeleton of Cadavra
I guess Chip is the second.
Are you going to finish xin? No, djb's doesn't count I couldn't even finish the first video of that.
We did, because they do count, and we were even in the last few so there.
Is it true you're a feminist? That's really gross.
Sometimes I remember that I believe in equality and ending the harmful patriarchal systems that hold our society back and wonder how I can even live with myself. I'm a monster.
So Chip, have you been contemplating doing Killer is Dead? I've just started playing it and it really reminds me of a good mix of Killer7 and No More Heroes, so it would be right up your alley kind of.
No current plans, but Geop just started one with Judge Reinhold of the Men Drinkin Coffee: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OLxmUW5_7AI
If Platinum Games does make a Metal Gear Rising 2 how long do you expect to not have it post release
I expect Chip to break into Konami's offices as soon as it goes gold.
And that's it for this round folks. I hope you enjoyed. And if you want a faster turnaround there's always twitter or ask.fm.
