As someone who had this game as a kid, I legitimately had a lot of fun with it. Sure, it probably doesn't hold up, and there's a lot of mechanics I'd probably find annoying now, but it was the first game I played where combos actually mattered, and I honestly respect it for that. There are SO MANY kingdoms in this game, and while I kinda wish y'all saw them yourself, I totally understand not coming back to this game. Still, damn fine stream.

I hope someone archived the pre-steam. That was magical.

This is the worst live-stream ever recorded. Ever. Also I loved it.

We're all in agreement that at 43:45 is really what we think it is. I mean, just the sound. I was waiting for him to pull out a smoke and slap Alex on the ass.

Alex is clearly having a lucid dream where everyone is yelling and he can only escape by playing the drums as quietly as possible.

For bonus hilarity, watch this with your browser minimized and just listen to the audio. Do this before you have seen the video for best results. Some parts are very... something, in audio only form.

I feel bad for Alex, he's like a tortoise that keeps ducking into his shell when loud noise is going on.
