crossover_chick-->Although I saw this on the trailer, Marty waking up in the Citizen Plus waiting room was MUY creepy.
-->Oh God, Citizen Brown. . . D: Stop using the mind-reading helmet and Marty's speaker for evil, Edna!
-->Georgie's on the cameras! Thank you for being our outside man.
-->SHIT, Lorraine's gonna get Plussed. Find her, George, talk her out of it!
-->Okay, now Jennifer will help --
-->WHY IS MY "BROWN" DRABBLES88 POSSIBLY CANON?!
-Martys: WHAT?!-
-J: Oh no no no-
Yup -- Plussed! Only treatment one, but -- ye GODS!
-M: EDNA DIES.
Oh, just wait. . .
-->Fortunately, the Power of Rock saves all and gets her back to normal. Well, ah, "normal" as defined by Doc Dystopia.
-->Oh God, Citizen Brown, please stop making those noises. . . :'(
-->Oh, hi Biff. Would you believe I wish I could get you out?
-->Marty leaping down from the ceiling to engage the POWER OF ROCK to blast him and Citizen Brown out of there? Epic? The POWER OF ROCK proving to be, uh, not so powerful? Less so.
-->*snork* I love Marty's gurney-jitsu.
-->Okay, the guy who flails his arms and runs away outside is amusing.
-->Edna, you are a horrible human being, fuck off.
-->Hair's still not right, but NIIIICE suit. *drool*
-->"Blow it out your exhaust pipe!" *snigger*
-->Minor miscalibration of the time circuits? Yeah, that's not gonna bite us in the ass. [/sarcasm]
-->I hate to say it, but Emmett looks kinda cute in the Colonel Sander's suit. Then again, we all know I'm actually a fan of that style, so. . . .
-->Yup -- ass officially bitten. Nice work, boys.
-->The high school! Nice to see it again. :)
-->Artie? What are you doing here -- oh, being bullied by Edna. Poor guy.
-->*sigh* Guess Trixie ain't Sylvia. But damn it, I still kinda wish she was.
-->OMG THAT PHOTO -- Telltale, your developers have DIIIRTY minds. I like it. XD
-->Awww, Trix and Artie. . . . What does it matter if she's Canadian?
-->LOL, skateboard! Hooray!
-->Emmett's lab looks as awesome as ever. If rather more crowded, and thus easier to hit the wrong thing.
-->. . .The cleanser chemicals eventually synthesize into clothing-eating enyzemes?! My first thought: "OH PLEASE GOD NAKED EMMETT"
-D: *facepalm* You are such a pervert.-
To be fair, apparently so are the guys at Telltale.
-->Man, that "changing the mind-map" puzzle took a rather long time. (Though it was amusing to see cross-dressing Baby Strickland in there. XD)
-->SHIT, Emmett's going to propose?! Gaaaahhh
-->A lot of the puzzles in this episode seem to involve waiting around. Luckily there's cool shit to look at.
-->Things I never want to see again -- Edna smooching Emmett. >(
-->You seem a little uneasy to hear Carl Sagan has a lead on the speakeasy arsonist, Edna. Now why is that. . . ?
-->Citizen Brown, stop being sympathetic to the face of evil. Marty may have a little sadness over how 1986!Edna turns out, but I sure has hell don't. *grumblemutterrailroadconversationoptions*
-->Not full nakedness, but I'll take the destroyed suit. And Trixie's performance is so hilariously bad and great at the same time.
-->I forgive the slap only because it means you can't get your full claws into him, Edna.
-->Shit, what just happened? Didn't we do things right?
-->GAAAAAH NO NO NO NO GET OFF THAT ROOFTOP AND AWAY FROM THAT ROPE EMMETT
-->A) Oh, the rope's on those weird dog-gargoyles, B) he just comes up there to think. Whew.
-->. . .Not the way I thought it would work, but we do sort of get our Doc vs Marty fight. Painful to have to get Marty to make fun of Emmett, though. :(
-->Hooray for revitalized Emmett! Oh man, look at him! *loves science loves science*
-->HATE LEDGES -- oh god oh god
-->Perhaps having Marty waste time apologizing isn't the best option, but I HAD to have him say it.
-->"A rope and a net would be handy, and a circus career. Your limbs and imagination will have to suffice" -- Cheshire Cat quote from the "Alice" demo, and first thing I thought of when we had the swinging puzzle. Someone should make a clip of that.
-->"Science should be messy and unpredictable, otherwise it's no fun!" Emmett, I love you. *hugs hugs hugs*
-->Quit your crying and go get that cat, Edna. Everyone will be the happier for it.
-->. . .OMG It IS Marty vs Citizen Brown next episode! And he's going after Emmett's interest in science!
-HD: *spits out tea*-
-OD: *tentacles squeal* What?!-
Yeah, tell me about it! Oh God, I have NO idea what to expect in the finale! Damn it, I want OUR Doc back. *sniffle*
So yeah, this game? DARK. Playing AMA next month might actually lighten things up a bit.
-WRM: Yeah, I know -- at least in that, you can just introduce enemies to your knife. *pause* Did I just say something good about "American McGee's Alice?!"-
You see what this game has done to us?!

Date: 2011-05-04 02:57 pm (UTC)Though I wish it wasn't the first playing for these guys. I find myself screaming things in my head like "YOU HAVE AN INVENTORY!!!" (one guy forgot he did when Marty was stuck in the billboard in Episode 3) because they're not noticing the things I am. I just note it for when I finally get to play, lol. Episode 3 comes out on PS3 today so hopefully I'll get to do some (and thanks to the Let's Play I somewhat know what I'm doing ^^).

Date: 2011-05-04 10:50 pm (UTC)LOL, aren't "blind" playthroughs fun? I often find myself making comments at the screen when I watch that sort of thing myself. Though you're right, it is useful for future playthroughs. :D I think I got a lot of my most useful Alice tips from a Let's Play (such as, it's best to combo the knife and the croquet mallet when it comes to those killer roses).

Date: 2011-05-01 02:50 am (UTC)Why do I see that biting Marty on the ass if he ever mentions it to the 1986 Strickland?
Citizen Brown, stop being sympathetic to the face of evil.
The sad part is, I can see where he's coming from. 1931 Edna's the woman he fell in love with and married all those years ago, and as far as they know, she's harmless (unless the whole speakeasy thing turns out to be true), if more than a little bit old-fashioned. At this point, she isn't the woman who'd brainwash her own husband to maintain control - yet (Again, unless she did blow up the speakeasy.) Hell, for all they know, she might have loved Emmett, or at least thought she did (God forbid, I know.) It's a toned-down version of Doctor Who's "Do I have the right?" scenario.
The part where it falls apart is where Doc goes with it, blaming science instead of Edna's extremist ways, and coming up with a plan that could make things worse, and God only knows what the end result would be.

Date: 2011-05-01 02:59 am (UTC)My sympathy is limited because she comes off as a jerk even as a young woman. That Mind Map device already shows signs of the future dystopia. But yes, I totally get what you're saying -- Emmett's seeing it through the lens of what was, in his view at least, a happy marriage in the past. And she's more on the "annoyance" side than the "evil dictator" side now, of course. (Unless she's the speakeasy arsonist -- which I fully believe she could be, but I also wouldn't be surprised if she was a red herring. We'll see.) She may say Emmett needs someone to keep him under control, but I think SHE needs someone to keep HER under control.
Yeah, I know. This whole game is showing off how screwed up Doc can really get. :(
