1. Submissions have to be related to games

Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.

This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

3. No excessive self-promotion

Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW

Make sure to mark your stuff or it may be removed.

No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.

We don't want us moderators or the admins of lemmy.world to get in trouble for linking to piracy. Therefore, any link to piracy will be removed. Discussion of it is of course allowed.

Aliens games have always been a mixed bag with really low lows, but then some pretty high highs. Aliens: Dark Descent definitely falls to the latter category.

Unfortunately for me I neither have the patience, nor the time to play the title, so I am looking for a good YouTube Let's Play / Walkthrough / Playthrough series. Any recommendations?

I tried watching the one by Christopher Odd - typically I love his videos, especially on strategy games, but he did not seem to "get" this game, making many of his decisions super-frustrating to watch.

If I may be so bold as to list some things I am looking for:

  • Full playthrough. I've seen good half of the game already, I am interested in second half and ending
  • Narration preferred, as long as it's not over the top. I'd love some level-headed commentary or strategy explanation. There is nothing that will get me to stop the video and blacklist a channel like exaggerated reactions, dumb jokes and/or bigotry.
  • No caster picture-in-picture. Just gameplay - I don't need to see the person playing
  • Most importantly: Good gameplay. Someone who understands the game systems, or learns them over the course of the series.

Hope my list of demands is not impossible to meet. Thanks in advance!

If you find one let me know I own the game but to many games to play so doubt I'll ever get back to it
