The let's play subforum is becoming a wasteland.
This year there have been very few new let's plays, and most don't even go past 1 page before being abandoned.

The management should revitalise the subforum by awarding DANK prizes and flairs to members that post high quality lets plays.

Gimme 48 hours a day and I can get that Cyberstorm LP I've always wanted to do.

And the strength to end the Rule The Waves LP (almost finished, funnily enough the incoming update has been at 75% for a year).

But I'll admit that the only fun LPs this year have been Sword of the Samurai and Nails. Dominions subforum is still alive, though, and we even got the terrible idea of making a Starcraft tourney (with a prize even , offered by yours truly!).

We do what we can. Not our fault most people are more interested in screeching than playin' games in a gaming forum, we can say :lol:

I like the Drakensang River of Time LP updates there right now, but really miss the Rimworld LP updates. Komrade Grimwulf's one was a great read until that was abandoned. If I had the time, I'd probably do a Rimworld LP myself.

I have been thinking of restarting my old X-COM Files LP from the scratch, as I currently have no access to the netbook where the files are stored therein - no charger for it.

I think I will talk to a few people I know and own notebooks, if I find nobody with a charger, I might restart it from zero

Where expecting basics is considered perfectionism

Better and cheaper ways of attention whoring are available.

Like spamming SF with inane threads, for example...

I'd say its even more depressing when you do complete a lets play recently but then see a thread by someone moaning about the lack of completed lets plays and your crappy completed lets play doesn't even get an honourable mention :negative:

I have already got my flairs from LPs thank you very much

I miss it and him too. I think the first post if my MM LP was one of the last things he brofisted.
SOON

It would come sooner if there were dank buttons or tags awarded to LPers
Once again, they already are if you're edgy good enough.
If people want to LP a Wasteland, that's up to them.
I would love to if I didn't already have an LP I ignore a lot.

There's an easy way to rectify this: I vote HeroicBloodshed should complete an LP of Star Stable or suffer the penalty of being banned, or at least be stuck with a few tags. DarkUnderlord
Be careful, this is what'll get you stuck with a Star Stable LP.

Pic an text lps are fun when the LPer kinda larps it, gives important advice or strategies, or both. It's a nice format.
I've been meaning to do some Let's Read threads, but I haven't decided on what to show, and how to show it. I mean, it's pretty obvious that is has to be with images, but most of the stuff I've been thinking about is either too long or too short.
