Supergreatfriend - Let's Plays with a professional bent
13 replies, posted
Recently discovered this guy, pretty great. He's done let's plays of a lot of survival horror games that are more like video game documentaries. They feature things like cutaways showing alternate outcomes of things, in-depth history, serious completionism, mechanics discussion, and even complete and total silence while game characters talk. He's seriously amazing. His Deadly Premonition Let's play is somewhat old, but is seriously a gold standard.

That's not to say his let's plays lack humor, though. Dry commentary, sarcasm, and incredulity are employed with laser precision, and there's also LPbot.
If you prefer a more off-the-cuff playthrough instead, demo friend/stream friend/bumbling through are all reminiscent of more typical let's plays found elsewhere.

Seriously check his channel out, he's great.
His LP was how I first discovered the greatness that Deadly Premonition is, it was great. His series where he suffers through the bottom of the barrel that Xbox Live Indie Games was is pretty great too.
SGF is honestly the epitome of what Let's Play should be. I seriously can't name a favorite series of his, they're all just so good. He made The Witness watchable.
I love his Bully Demise series.

I was planning to rewatch his let's plays of night cry and the ring terror's realms for October. I think every time he's played crap horror games has been gold.
Oh my god, the madman

Make sure you check out his Witness videos. He, uh, takes a while.

you gotta make sure you fully Witness all the Wisdom of JoBlo's The Witness
SuperGreatFriend is great because I am unwilling to put myself through the agony of Deadly Premonition. Pretty stellar Killer7 LP too.
The best playthroughs are the games where you can hear his agony come through, just a little bit, in his voice, like with Crying Is Not Enough.
Dunno what agony you would experience playing Deadly Premonition that game is a 10/10
It is a great game but not a well made game. The bugs and crashes just got too much for me.
