I had other things going on, so I’m sorry I missed this part of the stream. I love the original Left 4 Dead campaigns and characters.

I’ve never played realism mode so I probably would have been a massive liability. Which makes me even more sad that I missed it. If I’d been there I might have prevented them from attaining such a glorious pro-level victory.

    No KOTOR? Unsub.

    1. MichaelGC says:

      Aye – I guess the writing was on the wall when there were only three of them for Die TheCast…

    2. Gruhunchously says:

      Considering that they praised 2015 as being a great year for gaming and praising most of the games, even though I barely “enjoyed” The Witcher 3, I really have to wonder why I’m still following these sellouts who used to have some integrity at the start but became pure commercial trash like [mainstream video game review site].

      And you guys haven’t done a mailbag episode in weeks, way to show your fans just how much you really care. I hope you can look at yourselves in the mirror and realize just how much credibility you’ve lost over the years.

      Hope you have fun with your delicious Patreon money at least.

        I give this comment a hate/10.

          Oh look,a Jim Sterling fan?Unfollow!

      2. Grimwear says:

        I can honestly say I’m just baffled by this comment, I mean ok you didn’t like the Witcher 3 where they did. That’s fine, I like Dark Souls and Shamus doesn’t but Josh does! It’s almost like every person has their preferences. I’m not sure how this makes them sellouts and as for a mailbag episode I’m sorry you’re offended when clearly they did in fact have a lot of news and games they wanted to talk about? Overall I’m just so confused as to why you take so much offense at this since everyone already knew that the end of December and beginning of January would be a bit sparse since it was you know Christmas, plus Josh had a wedding to go to. You sir, seem rather perturbed by the fact they enjoyed games this year and all I can offer is maybe try to find an angrier site or maybe broaden your own horizons for games! I mean heck there a hundreds of games out there with even more indies, maybe you can find something you’ll like more.

          Like Da Mage implied below, I’m fairly certain this comment wasn’t meant to be taken seriously, but rather suffers from the problem of not being able to tell tone in text.

          1. Wide And Nerdy says:

            Yeah, my comment was a joke (I’m fairly certain there is no “sub” or “unsub” feature here) and I assume Gruhunchously is just playing along.

        2. Galad says:

          Really now, things like “[mainstream video game review site].” were not enough of a tell? :D

          Edit: OMAGAD HARDEST DIFFICULTY WHAT ARE YOU PEOPLE, ARE YOU EVEN PEOPLE!?

          I tried a few times to play on hard. It should have felt manageable but wasn’t really >.<

      3. Da Mage says:

        Such troll, much try

      4. Loonyyy says:

        Like you were ever a fan.

  2. The Rocketeer says:

    This is the second half of 8 by Zombies, right? Better late than never.

    1. Nope. 8 By Zombies had the full cast and then some. It was on Versus mode so they had 8 people. Part 2 of that appears to have have lost to the nether… of Josh’s hard drive.

      1. The Rocketeer says:

        Look, up in the sky!

        It’s a bird!

        It’s a plane!

        No, its… the joke, sailing above Noahpocalypse’s head!

        *lively theme music*

        1. Supahewok says:

          You know, when Shamus said in the CK2 notes that they were gonna put up a L4D stream recording, I really did think he was making an oblique reference to 8 bh Zombies.

        2. noahpocalypse says:

          Nothing goes over my head.

          My reflexes are too quick.

  3. Artur CalDazar says:

    I also missed this part of the stream, didn’t even know L4D was on the ticket.

  4. Rageoholic says:

    Hey, if Jarenth can see this your blog is down. Any word on when it’ll be fixed

    1. Supah Ewok says:

      I’m probably not Jarenth, but here you go.

      1. Daemian Lucifer says:

        Awww,why didnt you link to the comment in the previous blog post where someone linked to that tweet?You help lacks style!

        1. Supahewok says:

          My internet pseudonym is an Ewok in a Superman costume. Stylish, I ain’t.

          (Plus I don’t know how to link to a specific comment)

          1. Daemian Lucifer says:

            Click on the date of the comment,and youll get the address of that specific comment.

            1. Abnaxis says:

              Ooh now that’s handy. I’ll have to remember that trick.

    2. Ranneko says:

      We are looking into other solutions, but right now the only certainty is it will be back in February.

        1. Jarenth says:

          Pointing it out is appreciated!

        2. Ranneko says:

          I have worked out a redirect to a temporary site! Now we just got to start posting to that. The old URL should lead there now

  5. Galad says:

    Since I don’t do twitter I’ll reply to a tweet here: Shamus, you can totally finish Hearts of Stone in a week of oh, 3-5 hours a day. I don’t know your schedule but it probably won’t suffer from that delay should you choose to go through with it.

    Hm, L4D2, I wonder if you guys played any mods.
