Trying to do a Let's Play here as well
« on: January 27, 2016, 01:20:08 PM »
Hi,

I really like the "Hype" the current LPs for Aurora have created for this great game and try to cover some areas which have not been covered that deeply in those LPs till now.

So if you are interested in taking a closer look at what/how a fairly experienced Aurora player, but complete Youtube noob is doing, feel free to take a look at my LP here

And I have to admit that playing while trying to explain things is fairly hard, especially if English is not your native tongue. So I will try to get a second recording done either by today or tomorrow going over some of the points once again - and this time with a (hopefully) better microphone.

Give a man a fire and he's warm for a day, but set fire to him and he's warm for the rest of his life.

Episode #2 is up:


Got up to construction of the first ship.

Played around with tons of settings, but the sound still sucks - since it is louder now it sounds even a bit worse I am afraid, sorry... ;)

Episode #8 is up:

Fitting in nicely with the theme set by XCom2 the BIG spoilers (or at least their harbinger) appeared in a system right next to Sol. With tech at around the Ion-Level this might get interesting (which is a euphemism if I ever heard one).

And our fellow Earthlings are happily sacrificing their fleets to what is most likely some other spoilers in another system...

Main Topics: continue slashing expenses, use of neutral population, Chinese and US ships getting slaughtered in Berlin, Spoilers in Munich

Fuel starting to get low, having lost the only civ freighter to a ramming Invader scout does not help here. But at least the minerals in Berlin look very nice.
