Anniversary Week, Day 4

Hey everybody spencer7x7x here and this is day 4 of anniversary week, and it is exactly one year since we uploaded episode one of our first LP. But today I am gonna write about LP4.0 also known as Let's Play Project IV: Shuffle!.

LP4 was by far, the HARDEST LP to do ever, episodes took up to 3 days to make because of the editing and
stuff. Well anyways, it all started when I was finding random stuff online. I found a site that sold visual novels in 
English, and I found a game called Shuffle! for PC. I then realized that the trailer synced up with LMFAO's 
Party Rock Anthem. When I realized that. I bought the game just for the fun of it.

Later on I decided that it might be a good idea to make an LP about this. If you played a visual novel before,
you know the drill, you basically read and pick a poison. Later on you have to read each character's path or 
story or whatever, until you eventually get a good or bad ending. But since VN Let's Plays are usually boring 
and stale like bread. I decided make it into a gigantic YouTube poop, using Loquendo to replace voice 
commentary and YTP sounds and crazy edits to make it crazier. The edits are basically another story inside 
the story. Another challenge in the LP is the adult contents in this game but that was fixed by ungracefully use
of transitions. 

There are basically six sections of the LP.
4.0: Heaven X Hell Prologue - The game's prologue and common path, this is where you pick your path 
and then stay by it, we meet all the main characters here and yadayada.

4.0: Heaven X Hell - Primula the Catgirl's storyline, she may be about 17 in human years but she's actually
older cause she's a cat. This part continues from the previous story and add more LOLs and drama. My 
personal favorite part of the LP.

4.1:Heart Of the Void- Nerine the Superelf's storyline, this arc's title is a reference to StarCraft 2:

Heart of the 

Swarm and 

Legacy of the Void. This part of the LP has losta fanservice and it builds upon 

Heaven X Hell in both storyline and LOLs, even though I do not like the ending. This is the most viewed part.

4.2: Shadow Of Fomalhaut- Asa the green girl's story. Very boring, but it expands on the previous arc.

4.3: Advent Of Sirius- Lisianthus the Elf Princess' story, it is surprisingly better then I expected. 

It expands on the previous arc. The arc title is a reference to beatmania.

4.4: Codename: DistorteD- The grand finale finaleeeee, it's Kaede's story, any more info about it is a major

spolier. Like previous arc, the  title is a reference to beatmania. This arc is shorter but more action packed.

This weird LP has many achievements:

• First LP with commentary- if you call TTS voices commentary.
• First post-recording LP.
• First LP with openings.
• First LP with a licensed song with the trailer.
• 4th Most Viewed LP- Episode 25 had 463 views and Episode 1 has 247 views.
• First LP produced completely in Sony Vegas Pro.

So overall, this LP took me forever, but it has helped me become a better editor and LPer so in the end it was
worth it all.
