Re: Hi I am MightyDimo
The computers of my youth were the Commodore 64 and the Amiga 500 (later with 512k expansion).

As such i am only really interested in these as most of my computer games history and fondest memories are with these computers. Growing up as a pre teen and then a young teen i didnt have much money so most of the games came by way of friends copies. Some had disk errors that prevented them from being finished. Almost all games came with no instructions so getting stuff like "rygar docs" etc was a blessing. If an adventure game did not come with a solution, i generally could not finish it as i was too young to understand what was going on.

So im here now hoping to contribute the games that do not have a longplay. They will be games i want to play because of my inability to finish them back in the day (for all the various reasons). I plan on recording on original hardware as to me, this is a large part of the nostalgia.

So a big hello to everyone here!

PS. The last person to broadcast here is mighty squirrel and its a coincidence with the mighty part. The Dimo in my handle is a loose take on my surname. Mighty (Michael) was a friend from back in the day and mightydimo was the name we used when playing doubles in sport. I just kept the handle.

Re: Hello! I am MightySquirrel
Hello!

New here, but not new to classic gaming. I have been a long time player of Atari 2600, including holding several records on Twin Galaxies.

I am joining, because I would like to contribute. I noticed that on a few of the Atari games, that not all of the levels were showcased. I can definitely remedy that.

I like to stick to original hardware, with my S-Video modified Atari 2600, Retrotink 2x, and OSSC. I also have a MiSTer that I can use for higher quality captures.

I'm happy to be here, and I can't wait to be a part of the community!

Re: Hello, YarolsavTV here.
Hi there, I'm new to the community. Today is a good day to record my longplays for a first time.

My first submition will be a longplay on Micro Machines V4 on PC, but there is a problem, the legit copy I own uses the most hated DRM of all time, StarForce. Is there a solution to
play it without breaking the OS? It happened to me twice while I was trying to install and run it on Windows 10.

Anyway, here's a photo of the copy i bought it on eBay and own it.

Re: Greetings! Old school gamer here
Howdy folks, I'm a gamer from way back who's finally decided to try to pay something back to one of the communities I've taken so much enjoyment from. I think that Longplays are a good way of recapturing the essence of the good old days, along with the experience of enjoying a game to completion without having to play the damn thing yourself.

Now that the world seems to have been stuck on Pause, I'd like to try my hand at this thing myself. There's a bunch of old school games that seem to be missing from your archive - a couple of Commodore 64 games spring to mind - and I'd like to try and add them to the list.

Having said that though... I've literally never done anything like this before, so I'll expect to have to ask a LOT of questions before my submissions are gonna be up to par. All suggestions gratefully accepted. (In particular, this site doesn't seem to have any up-to-date advice on how to do C64 videos; I know that VICE Emulator seems to be a good choice but that's about it so far.)

I'm not promising anything. If it doesn't work out, I'll add my ideas to the suggestion pile and leave it at that. But I'd like to have a go at it first before I give up completely!

Thanks, hope to contribute something more substantial soon!

Re: Hello again
Hello everyone,

I actually joined this community over a decade ago and it would appear that my last posts are too old for the forums to still have a record of them. Because of doing two university degrees I didn't have the time to really contribute anything so I just kind of disappeared and never checked back. But this time of quarantine has had me playing through a bunch of old games from my adolescence and it brought me back here. I may actually be able to contribute some playthroughs this time!

Re: Hi
Hi I'm Fuse I do video game reviews but this I'm not here to advertise, I'm here to introduce myself! Grin

I'm a fan of a ton of genres but my favorite one is RPGs. I've always loved RPGs. I'd love to talk about RPGs with people. I'm honestly not sure what I would consider my favorite. I really like Golden Sun, so maybe that's my favorite. Picking a favorite RPG is tough for me. Anyway enough about RPGs. My favorite console of all time is probably the GBA. I'd love to talk about the best, worst, or obscure games that are on the GBA.

Well I'm not sure what else to say, hopefully this introduction wasn't awful!

Re: OK, so let's begin.
Howdy, everyone, my name is The Pighead and it's cool to be here !

I don't know how to introduce myself, I admit... I come from France and I'm 19 (20 years old in some months). I had discovered the YT channel and the site during the quarantine period and I've been hooked really fastly in the channel. Since that, I've spent my nights (and some of my days) watching extracts of the fuckton of longplays you had in the channel (I've tried to download two of them in the site, but I've failed because I don't totally know how it works...) and since these 13 years, this is a great job that y'all did. Honestly, it's wonderful !

I'm not a longplayer myself, so I will surely not do that. I think I will probably do recommandations of games and chatting here, in the forums or in the WoL Discord (I'm here since one or two months and I lurk. Seems cool)... and for the rest, apart video games, I love music, eating things, watching stupid (or not) videos on YouTube, be with other people and writing fanfictions.

And that's all ! So, I will see you probably later. It's cool to be here and, again, congratulations for all your fantastic work, longplayers ! ^^

Re: Warm Greetings!
Hello!

By a stroke of great fortune last week, I discovered this community and decided to join it today. I can't contribute much to the Long-play project at this moment in terms of Long-play's content, but I can certainly spread the word of its WOL's existence and worthy goals. I also plan to be active in the forums and will try to leave truthfully accurate reviews of any WOL's content I download/watch to help others whom may not have the time/data-allowance to explore all the content generously provided by WOL.

I hope you all have a great week and I look forward to being a part of WOL's community. Smile
