Silence is golden
-Like videogames, especially VR and indie titles?
-Like Let's Plays?
-Like subtle editing and humour?
-Like constant face-cam interruptions and fake over-reactions being screamed in your ear? ...No?
Good, 'cause we only have those first three things; this is the Let's STFU and Play channel. Enjoy.
—From the official channel description.
Let's STFU and Play
is a Let's Play channel that specializes virtual reality and Indie Games, all without any commentary on their part. Which when playing on VR, leads to some hilarious moments.
Some of the games they have played include:
- Arizona Sunshine
- Boneworks
- Duck Season
- I Expect You To Die & I Expect You to Die 2: The Spy and the Liar
- Gorn: Visceral Reality
- Rick and Morty: Virtual Rick-Ality
- Half-Life: Alyx
- Job Simulator & Vacation Simulator
- Budget Cuts & Budget Cuts 2: Mission Insolvency
Let's STFU and Play's videos contain examples of:
- The Ace: A unknown entity, with the audience following their adventures and learning about their everyday experiences on guns, combat, and doing mostly the basics of “Murphy’s Law”.
- The Alcoholic: Along with the other traits. Lampshaded in "The Spy And The Liar" when they end up dying to a booby-trapped wine bottle.STFU: They've figured out all my weaknesses. I'm doomed.
- Big Eater: Will attempt to eat any form of food found in VR games.
- The Faceless: Has not made a single appearance or shown their looks during their videos. Even in their trailer video, which later on in live-action footage, shows their hands.
- Kleptomaniac Hero: If it's not pinned to the ground and looks valuable, they will steal it.
- Pyromaniac: They have a huge affinity for setting things on fire.
- Sanity Slippage: They go through this while trying to find the Last Lousy Point in Please, Don't Touch Anything.
- Shout-Out:
- One of the things they do in Hot Dogs, Horseshoes, and Hand Grenades is to "Fight for the Browncoats."
- While playing the Mechanic and Office Worker jobs in Job Simulator, they draw pictures of Ignignokt.
- As mention below: about the only thing we ever hear them say is done through soundbites taken from [adult swim] shows.
- Silent Snarker: Their main gimmick.
- Smoking Is Cool: They smoke any cigar they can get in I Expect You To Die. This gets them killed in the first mission when they accidentally light the time bomb.
- Trash of the Titans: More often than not they tend to leave VR games as disaster areas by tossing things about and engaging in funny shenanigans.
- The Voiceless: Apart from the occasional soundbite pulled from Aqua Teen Hunger Force, Archer, or the like.
