Created to celebrate the 3rd year anniversary of HellfireComms, the Super Mario Galaxy 2 playthrough also marked the start of the stream playthroughs, and you can kinda tell that I wasn't really completely settled into the idea of doing stuff live at this point in time.
While I went on to learn some tricks from playthroughs like Xenoblade (most notably removing dead air from the commentary track and editing the sound more effectively), and how to interact with the audience in a more fluid and engaging manner, this one was kinda raw overall. That's not to say I consider it bad or even lacking, just that it was the first of its kind, and I've come a long way since then.
In any case, I hope you enjoy it. I just apologise for the horrible Let's Play cliche' of reading the on-screen text. I wasn't trying to be patronising and I'm aware you all can read quite well - I was just trying to entertain the livestream chat! But I will still go and punish myself profusely for this horrible faux pas.
Enjoy!
