Prince of Persia: Sands of Time Game Review/Commentary 27

[madimpossibledreamer]

well, my new prescription sunglasses are perfect and my new glasses are...not.  Hopefully it's just an adjustment thing but given my sunglasses are fine I don't think so...
 
EDIT: THERE CAN ONLY BE ONE (part 26 anyway)

Well, I return from the battlefield and I need it to not be as stressful as it was.  This is what would count as my prestream when I do these things for real.  I will probably do these things eventually.  That’s better.

I’m a little out of breath ‘cause I just went down the stairs and there was cooking smoke and the dinner ended up being tasty Italian food.  You wouldn’t think Italian food would take as long or be as hard, but it does.  It be and it do.  Anyway.  Let’s see, am I still running—nope.

Controller companion, launch.  Library, librarby.  Games.  That just highlighted the whole block, why.  I don’t know why it do.  I’m a little stressed and I have a lot to do still but I need to destress.

C’mon, Steam, stop being dumb.  Really?  Why.  You know what, I am restarting Steam because it is being dumb.

Might as well play some music while I wait.

Are you gonna play that?  …You are going to play that.  Thanks.  No one cares, literally.  Well, some people do, but… (to ad)

I figure when I finally do stream, the sound of water or something would be fine and not catch any copyright, but Twitch is also a lot less crazy, so.

C’mon Steam.  Steam, let me do things.  Steam, please.  /sighs  So, what is your guys’ day?  (How, ya mean?)  I know I’m not actually talking to anybody, but—oh, hey, there is a lot of Steam sales, but—does any of it matter?  I mean, Tekken 7, but…wait, did that say Ace Attorney?  It did.  Nice.  Steam’s coming out with the Ace Attorney trilogy.  I might play that, we’ll see.  Featuring Duel Links, interesting.  Ace Attorney is awesome.  I don’t know if I would play it for…we’d see.

Am I in…oh, I didn’t start it.  Software, controller companion, please.  Hopefully it doesn’t lose it’s mind, we’ll see.  Because I started things in the wrong order.

Okay.  It is actually kind of working, so I should probably stop the background music.

Oh, yeah, I’m going to have to pause it and go to a different save because I want that picture.

I’m going to try to see if I can’t get a picture through Steam, but if not, well.

Death of a Sand King?  Mmmmm, we’ll see.

Aww, man, it’s not that one.  Prince, no.  Back.  Quit to main menu, there we go.  You wish me to leave before finishing my story? [Prince] Yeah, we’re going back in your story anyway.  So it’s not that one.

Daybreak.  That’s not ominous at all.

Oh no.  I’d have to fight through the Sand King.  (Wrong, we see the pictures earlier when we first start chasing Farah’s tail, but I don’t figure that out today.)  I’m going to do that another day, because I don’t have to time for it today.  Ain’t nobody got the time for that.  Well, not right now, anyway.

Pause.  Sorry about that.

Back.  I’m not saying much of anything.  I don’t know how interesting anything I’m gonna be saying is, but.

Oh yeah, no health.  Water.  ¿Dónde está water?  ¿Está aqu—oh, hey, break wall.  No, Farah, there’s nothing to attack, it’s just me running up a wall.  It’s fine.

*whispers* does anyone have any water? *normal voice* Has anyone seen any water?

This is ninety percent of what I ask about, but…water.

Interesting, you can’t turn the camera if the column is in the way.  So weird.  Cool, but weird.  All right. That’s a little close.

Sorry, Farah, I—don’t stand so close behind me, I might accidentally smack you with my new awesome sword.  Water.  Waterrrrrr!  Yes!

Hey, he sheathes his sword without me telling him to, that’s nice.  Probably because there were no enemies around.

I’m just gonna keep drinking.  Farah, you want any of this magic water?  It doesn’t actually extend your health, but you never know, it might work differently for you.

I want a better look at you, Farah, don’t step out of the way.  …Okay, to be fair, that is a little close, but.

Yeah, I like the tattoo.  Most people don’t really go for tattoos, but it works on you.  Also looks vaguely Celtic, which is weird, but y’know.

These are pretty.  They’ve got cool kinda dwarvish designs on the archway.  Have you ever met dwarves?

Farah.  Behind the barrels.  You’re looking in the wrong direction, Princess.

Don’t!  Wait for me! [Prince] I mean, someone has to stand on this.

Hey look, it didn’t close on—OWWWWW.  /laughs as Prince monologues about the soldier’s mess hall.  (I jinxed myself.  It didn’t actually hurt, but the timing was great.)

Seraf.  Okay, that’s good to—Will you let me actually finish my story?  Seriously?  Please.  Ouch.  I messed up because I forgot which button was turn back time.  This is probably still going to kill me but I’m wondering why I was—there, much better.

Help me. [Farah] I can’t even see your health bar, Princess, but I’m sure you’re fine.

Oww, stop that.

Actually, you’re not fine, you’re going to die—you died.  I couldn’t see your health bar; I didn’t know how hurt you were getting.  How do I get to you anyway?

If you’re wondering what I was laughing about, I accidentally—

Could you stop.

This is not going well, Princess, I’m sorry.

I was laughing because the door closed on me because it started the cutscene before I’d gotten all the way through, so I was just standing in the doorway and it hit me.

I thought I died.  I didn’t actually die.  I did get hit though.  I have no health—is that water down there?

C’mon, follow me.  Follow me.

That does not look like water, in fact.

That’s just rocks.

Ow.  I’m dead.  That’s not what happened.  May I start again? [Prince] I mean, you’re dead.

Oh, good, it saved here.  Owww.  Owww.  Would you stop.  That helped not at all.  Actually, I could take hits.
