Reuploaded due to bad quality of previous upload. I attempted a different video output (Mpeg-4) than normal (WMV). Original video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=klIK8s6P1ro (Compare 15:28 of both videos to see difference in quality)

Comedy, horror, or story; I am not sure which of these this video really falls under. It has some of all three, but not all of all three. At least it counts as entertainment, I hope. But, there are definitely spoilers in this video.

So, I played the game, while my wife watched (with the headset on). So you'll hear her talking while I am playing.

I threw in a few clips that are not either funny or scary, but serve as a bit of a transition. But I didn't include all the transitions, so go figure.

Between graduating college with two majors, getting married, attending grad school & acting as a TA, and Guild Wars 2, I had little time for making videos. But I grew disheartened with ArenaNet (GW2), and things have slowed down a bit in my life.

I perhaps like to get back into TF2 or L4D2. But the vanilla games no longer interest me. If anyone knows of a fun modded server and its ip, give it a shout out in the comments (and include a short description of the mod, maybe?). Also, I figure I'll accept the first how many ever friend requests I get, immediately after this video goes up. Gotta get some new friends. http://steamcommunity.com/id/gNatFreak/

Perhaps the best thing that has happened in terms of video making is that I found a new recording software (Open Broadcasting Software) that is more than ten times better than Fraps. It's mostly made to be a broadcasting software, but it works as an awesome local recorder. A thirty second recording with fraps at 30 fps at 960 x 540 res is anywhere between 200 and 2000 MB. A thirty second recording with OBS  at 30 fps at 1280 x 720 res is consistently 10 MB. Very small performance hit as well; it's quite awesome! http://obsproject.com/

TL;DR: Not dead. OBS is cool. Hopefully more videos (as time permits [next ones look like they'll be Magicka or Trine 1 / 2])
