Interview with Pr0nogo about game immersion and RTS stuff AccursedFarmsJunk 2023-09-26 | This one was kind of confusing, since I originally thought we were going to be talking about game environments, but it ended up being more about game character behavior and immersion. The conversation shifted towards RTS stuff later on.Some links by Pr0nogo (including his Starcraft 1 mod):fraudsclub.com/cosmonarchy-bwpr0nogo.substack.com/p/letting-the-player-teach-themselvesdiscord.gg/s5SKBmYCollegehumor video of normal people playing Starcraft against a professional esports player:youtube.com/watch?v=COPlJTKIMf0accursedfarms.com

Casual discussion about FPS level design AccursedFarmsJunk 2023-08-23 | This was a discussion with "Sacor", a map modder about first person shooter design. This was another conversation more on the mellow side and didn't get into as many specifics as I hoped, but it had some moments of insight for me also.Check out Sacor's Serious Sam 4 mod here:steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2495110976accursedfarms.com

Discussion about art and creativity with Artbook Addiction [Re-upload] AccursedFarmsJunk 2023-08-23 | This is another experimental chat where I talked about art, creativity and a few other things with Sean Ngo of the Artbook Addiction channel. Sean brought up a few concepts I hadn't given a lot of thought to before, it had some interesting parts. This one was more on the mellow side and meandered a little bit, so it might be a good one to watch or listen to while doing something else. We also show some examples of our art towards the start.Some links mentioned:Artbook Addiction's Youtube channel:youtube.com/@artbookaddictionShaq in the future ad:youtube.com/watch?v=DEqp3tN7muEQuizno's rats ad:youtube.com/watch?v=aZrks-BPeLQ(I couldn't find that article again about a game dev using AI art to create environments)Speech about ducks from The FPyoutube.com/watch?v=iaxDK3AsEDoaccursedfarms.com
Ross playing Night of the Consumer AccursedFarmsJunk 2021-11-16 | This was part of a stream after I kind of lost interest in Darkwood. It's a pretty good short form game.Link to Omega Mart ad:youtube.com/watch?v=h6K9CnywVMAaccursedfarms.com
Ross playing Darkwood AccursedFarmsJunk 2021-11-16 | I tried Darkwood at chat request. It has a good atmosphere, but the mechanics are a little more cryptic than I like. Link to best cover of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Theme:youtube.com/watch?v=9wBid6HlGL8accursedfarms.com
Ross playing Blasphemous with cheats AccursedFarmsJunk 2021-10-11 | This was an emergency backup stream after I bailed on Sunless Sea. It starts in the middle of the game and was kind of a mess of a stream like the last one. This is why I call this the junk channel.
Ross playing Sunless Sea AccursedFarmsJunk 2021-10-11 | This wasn't a very good stream, I tried Sunless Sea while having some technical problems, played until death.
Screwing around in Secret World Legends with fans AccursedFarmsJunk 2020-10-26 | Tried using Secret World Legends as a meetup with fans. It was mostly just messing around, nothing too riveting, though I did finally get to see the Manhattan raid! Quality is a little lower since I accidentally stopped the recording midway through, so it was pulled from Twitch instead.
Playing more of Dark Souls, but with cheats AccursedFarmsJunk 2020-10-19 | This is more of a junk video than usual. I originally planned not to stream any more Dark Souls, since I could tell playing it vanilla wasn't for me and I thought streaming it with cheats would just upset people, but the last stream session ended early and the crowd wanted to see more of it, so here that is.
Ross playing A Robot Named Fight AccursedFarmsJunk 2020-10-19 | This was a last-minute gameplay session after failing to progress in Cursed Castilla. I was really distracted, this video is probably more garbage than usual.
Ross playing Cursed Castilla AccursedFarmsJunk 2020-10-19 | Attempted playing Cursed Castilla. Game was very good, but I hit an absolute wall when it came to Don Quixote. There's probably a message there, but I don't know what it is.
Ross attempting to play Dark Souls AccursedFarmsJunk 2020-10-12 | This was me playing Dark Souls for the first time. It went about as people probably expected.
Ross plays Chipmonk (Golden Axe for chipmunks) AccursedFarmsJunk 2020-07-04 | Played through as far as I could on Chipmonk, a real Golden Axe experience. Didn't beat it, since it has Golden Axe difficulty as well. Made it to autumn!

Ross goes through 1100+ games trying to find good ones AccursedFarmsJunk 2020-06-21 | I went through all the games in the Bundle for Racial Justice and Equality on itch.io and picked out ones I liked. It was a rapid-fire process, but that was the only sane way for me to deal with this many games. I missed a couple, I updated them in the pinned comment. 4:01:47 - (mostly) final resultsYou can see other games that pass my filter here:accursedfarms.com/games
Ross playing Deathtrap Dungeon for GOG Dungeon Crawl streaming event AccursedFarmsJunk 2020-03-01 | First time playing Deathtrap Dungeon, had technical issues, thought I was going to have to cancel. Got it working, it was as pure of an old school gaming experience as it comes. Accidentally cut off the side of the chat, but most of it's still readable.
Ross playing Bunker Punks AccursedFarmsJunk 2020-02-25 | Attempted to beat Bunker Punks on max difficulty. Didn't happen. Still think it's possible, but I made too many mistakes.
Serious Sam SE Grand Cathedral Serious Difficulty AccursedFarmsJunk 2019-12-30 | My attempt to beat The Grand Cathedral on one life. Didn't go that well. Late in the stream I accidentally stopped recording and had to pull the rest from Twitch. Also it turns out I was accidentally streaming at 1080 and the sound was out of sync (fixed here), should have done it at 720! There was also a giveaway of games at the end, but I omitted that part for Youtube since they're gone now.
Ross playing Castlevania: The Lecarde Chronicles 2 (Part 9) AccursedFarmsJunk 2019-12-01 | End of the game! I got 2 out of 3 endings, that works for me.

Ross playing Castlevania: The Lecarde Chronicles 2 (Part 7) AccursedFarmsJunk 2019-11-04 | Did a lot of map wandering, finally figured out where to go at the end + a lot of screwing up on a boss.I think this is the music that one village track was reminding me of:youtube.com/watch?v=N_X7SjD3EWo
Ross playing Castlevania: The Lecarde Chronicles 2 (Part 6) AccursedFarmsJunk 2019-10-22 | Less awful start than last time, but still not good. Had some misery getting up to the clocktower, got lost, had to do it again. Options open up tremendously at end of stream for next time.
Ross playing Castlevania: The Lecarde Chronicles 2 (Part 5b) AccursedFarmsJunk 2019-10-13 | Continued from Part 5a. Made more progress, game beat paranoia into me until I was paranoid, then it stopped being necessary. Probably going to have to deal with clock tower pain next time.
Ross playing Castlevania: The Lecarde Chronicles 2 (Part 5a) AccursedFarmsJunk 2019-10-13 | Castlevania resumes! AWFUL beginning, but eventually got better later. Disconnected the camera at the end like a boss. Continued on part 5b.Part 5b:youtu.be/8gsP5lCifI8

Accursed Farms UT2004 playsession with fans (January 2019) AccursedFarmsJunk 2019-01-28 | More onslaught with fans, tried various custom maps, some much better than others. Had some interesting lag anomalies towards the end.
Ross playing Castlevania: The Lecarde Chronicles 2 (Part 3) AccursedFarmsJunk 2019-01-22 | Returning to playing the game after a hiatus. Had a lot of backtracking where pretty much all loose ends got tied up and got to stare at the face of infinity.
LGR cameo AccursedFarmsJunk 2019-01-17 | This is a segment I sent to Clint from Lazy Game Reviews where he requested a small segment on what I use to run old games.

Zombie Panic playsession with fans March 2018 AccursedFarmsJunk 2018-03-31 | This one was a little different, this was my first time playing 3.0 so we ended up doing a big sampler session of different maps per request of the devs. I ended up not caring for most of them, next time we'll stick to more of the attack / defend style I like.1:42:20 my favorite kill of the session2:40:01 favorite zombie swarm
Unreal Tournament 2004 for Winter Games 2018 thing by GOG AccursedFarmsJunk 2018-02-25 | Here's my feed from the Winter Games thing I was invited to by GOG where played Unreal Tournament 2004. I did better than I thought I would. I had the hosts largely muted while I was playing so I could concentrate better, which lead to me missing some things, but it worked out okay. My only regret is I didn't realize how lopsided things were with onslaught, I would have asked the newer players to join my side if I knew. The volume levels are less than ideal, but this is what happens when I'm asked to make my voice louder for chat. There's definitely a couple highlights in here, mostly from the flak cannon. Between this and Epic Pinball, I think I won about 140-160 games for viewers as prizes, though I'm still unclear how that works.35:00 tournament starts1:02:58 bombing run1:43:49 onslaught2:06:48 instagib + admin screwing around2:39:35 semi-final 4 person DM2:53:45 1v1 final3:12:52 tournament over
Appearance for Winter Games 2018 by GOG (Epic Pinball) AccursedFarmsJunk 2018-02-18 | 16:15 Game startsI was invited for a "winter games" event hosted by GOG. They have different events, one of which was Epic Pinball, so I participated for my team. The actual game was fun, but the organization was a mess, since I was told I had to keep my voice channel open for the hosts, then the hosts started making constant idle chatter, which interrupted my stream and concentration. I ended up muting everyone and it went smoother after that. You also may have a chance to win some games, register here and pick "Arstotzka" for the team:gleam.io/RdSGa/signup-the-gog-games
Zombie Panic Playsession with fans November 2017 AccursedFarmsJunk 2017-11-27 | Zombie Panic playsession with fans. Has a few highlights. Some of the developers of the game joined on twitch later on! We also had a bitter player calling out the map choice later on. Humans got wiped out pretty hard, but it got a lot better towards the end.The new 3.0 version of the game is coming out in a week or two, hopefully it will be good.
Appearance on Tom Whites Charity Drive 2017 AccursedFarmsJunk 2017-11-20 | Salvaged recording of me appearing on Tom White's (from Weird Video Games) charity drive for water.org. The quality has issues, but that's why this is the junk channel.
