First video of the LP is done! I'm downloading Bandicut right now so I can edit the clips together.

The First Episode!

Yep, here it is. Apologies if my mic is too quiet. I'll bump up the volume in Bandicam's settings if that's the case.

Anyways, if you can't watch the video, here is the audience participation, if you will. If you can, I might relegate the narrative to an After Action Report on here.:

What is our first research project?
Meld Recombination
Xeno Biology
Alien Materials
Weapon Fragments

(Note: I am not asking for the best option, since that is subjective opinion as each are viable at the start. I am asking for personal opinion.)

Weapon fragments, Scopes are always nice.

If we go Meld Recombination, we can rush the mech-soldiers, which can carry for a bit until we get some levels.

Of course, Twin is neither man nor woman but an unholy eldritch abomination like every other Bay12er. The difference is they hide it better.

I'm fond of Weapon Fragments. Low level soldiers suck at shooting things, so scopes are always nice to have.

Twinwolf should get the other badge. She both killed an alien and got shot. Seems appropriate.

Experimental Warfare

Otherwise, everything's the same: Alien Materials, Meld, and Xeno-Biology.

Maybe we'll get lucky and be able to weaponize the common cold against them or something.

About to record the next one after my last video finishes uploading. Apologies for the wait.

Sorry! I'm terrible at doing things with a schedule. It's been a while, and I know you guys are probably gone. I'll continue the let's play, but whether or not I continue the thread really depends on interest, even after all this time without a part.

Side Note: Planning on using XSplit Gamecaster, Audacity, and an actual editing software to make things better.
