Imagine getting an all-gold-in-every-skill engi and then just completely pissing him away by having him fight a boarding party after you've suffocated him down to like 10 health lmao
Very excited for another new FTL series, makes me feel like a young egg in my carton again BTW, hope you're still having fun doing this lovely stuff for us, it's been incredible content lately, thanks a ton for helping me through COVID
Not one for nostalgia but gotta say, egg going back to the best space rogue-lite got me excited to watch yt again. Also would like to agree, while its super enjoyable eggheads want you to still enjoy what you do NL. Unrelated, salt against chat is top tier and I'm here for it.
The saga of Malf had me rolling. He lived, he died, he revived!, he died again, he reincarnated!, he got left alone with 2 hungry mantis and suffered from the sins of the egg.
I was looking to buy this game because somehow I'd never seen it before. Then NL's all like "you probably got it from a Humble Bundle" and would ya look at that I've had this game for 3 years and never played it once.
Key advice for boarders. Don’t be afraid to beat them up with your crew. Majority of species evenly fight each other in combat and the mantis advantage isn’t even that drastic. If they get on board 4v2 or 3v2 and just cycle who gets hit appropriately. It’s nice and easy.
very late but mantis advantage is fucking insane, especially when they have hidden crew damage bonuses, if you mess up the timing of crew movement or decide to fight them evenly outside of the medbay you're so unbelievably destroyed if they manage to hit your crew mates with any ship damage. a 3 on 3 fight with full mantises can solo 3 rockmen easily. I've had so many normal games where i had a chance against flagship just get demolished by a 4 man mantis boarding party with bad ship battle RNG.
sometimes i watch nl play sporcle and i’m like “man nl is pretty smart huh” then i watch him play ftl and i’m like “intelligence do be manifesting in different forms”
I had a God run going the other day until I warped into an asteroid field with the random event that removes shields against a drone with 2...TWO!!! Mark II combat drones.
I think FTL was the first series I started watching on this channel about 7 years ago. It's been a wonderful experience watching everything here and on twitch ever since. Thanks for this trip down memory lane and for reigniting my interest in this game!
Never would have thought this entire video would be a single run... I really did forget how long FTL winning potential runs were. It's coming back to me now, back then when a video was like 30 minutes longer than normal you knew it was a won run or at least a flagship potential run
This has like nothing to do with FTL but thank you for calling it a roguelike. I have been seeing "roguelite" everywhere to the point that I thought I was crazy and have been saying it wrong all my life 😂
@@mushroom_gal490 roguelite is a game that has the whole new run everytime of a game like FTL but has direct progression that can help in future runs like hades its an actual term but people misuse it
@@mushroom_gal490 FTL is a roguelite, roguelikes are games which more closely resemble the original Rogue. Roguelikes are games like NetHack, Angband and Caves of Qud. Roguelites like FTL are games that just have short gameplay where dying often and restarting is common.
ive been wanting to see NL play FTL again for so, so, so, so long now, and finally when i completely forgot that i wanted it, here it is, what a treat.
Dude, MALFs saga was short but intense. First he received mortal wounds on a mission so he had to be turned into an android. However, he caught an unknown virus in another expedition. Unexpectedly, he became one with the virus an received god-like powers only to die in the next combat at the hands of two bloodthirsty mantis attacking the ship.
I think FTL might be in my top 5 favourite games of all time, i dont recall if ive seen you do a series on it before, probably have and ive just forgotten, but man am i pogged to see this
"I don't know what I could have done better there." Probably not sending your max level Engi into a room with no oxygen while there are still enemies aboard.
I went back in with the multiverse mod since I never modded FTL, and it just made a game with ridiculous amounts of content have even more ridiculous amounts of content. The game just don’t die.
this is such a fun series so far. like i know NL already ahs experience but seeing him get this far in his 3rd run is wild. Hoping for some more vids of this
FTL Games made 'Sundog: A Frozen Legacy' back in the 80's -- It looked a lot like this, with top-down views of the ships, etc. I wonder if any of the developer team is from back then, or if they're just fans of the game. They also made OIDS... That one would be worth revisiting too.
Hooray! You're playing FTL again! I remember binge watching your first FTL series. You have progressed much NL. Even starting to use some advanced plays that you'll need for hard. I can't wait to see you play on Hard
Love seeing ftl, I had not yet been introduced to your channel when you first did your ftl series so I'm happy to see some new videos, just bought it today, incredible game tbh
The moment he started auto-firing the chain laser, I knew we were in for a great ride. Noone is perfect, for sure (RIP Virus) but NL clearly has some muscle memory on playing FTL.
Actionable advice, vent the whole ship except the medbay and cockpit. Move your three crew to the medbay. The mantis will probably go to the medbay as its closer than the cockpit. Dead mantis.
38:20 the 2 things I think you could have done here, both with the doors. 1 don't remove a crewmember from the doors. 2 Venting is a puzzle at times, even with out sensors you can tell where the enemy is if you look at your systems display you will see a red fist, that will tell you what room the enemy crew are in. 2a You need to set up as many doors between your crew and them as you can, making sure there is no O2 on either side of the closed door. This means when the enemy crew breaks down the first door they are still in a room without O2. So in your video they were in engines room, vent the aft room and engine room trapping the mantis there, open a path to the vacuum along the top through weapons and o2 so when they break down that door in engines they are still in a vacuum, as soon as you think they are in the next room close the door just ahead of them.
imagine being on a space ship and the captain just says, "check this out"
and switches off the oxygen
this little maneuver is gonna cost us 84 breaths
The slow death. Unforseen. Unforgiving.
What a breathtaking move
This comment had me dying for a solid minute and a half.
Best part is we all do this at least once in our FTL career

"It's the most stylish war crime, in my opinion" -NL
war crime rating incoming
@@GodofChookie and you thought the la croix tier list was controversial!
@@GodofChookie I was thinking the exact same thing lol - War Crime tier list based on style.
You think 100 years in the future we stop quoting artists and writers, and instead quote youtubers? This is a good one, imo.
44:36 a mere -twenty- ten seconds after his Wiseau impression. Think it's a coincidence being stylish was his priority?
Imagine getting an all-gold-in-every-skill engi and then just completely pissing him away by having him fight a boarding party after you've suffocated him down to like 10 health lmao
Engis don't even breathe oxygen. Look! He's breathing good!
lmao that shit was so funny
The Engi play
that fight was a nightmare lol every single desicion was wrong
Honestly one of the greatest things I’ve ever heard him say 😂😂
RIP Virus-enhanced RoboMALF
I have literally never seen anyone survive the giant alien spiders before. He has no idea.
the trick is to send down something equally lethal, like a mantis
woah crossover episode
I accidentally sent someone one time and it worked
I tried again the next time and immediately never did it again
He can't keep getting away with it
Pravus!!!
Very excited for another new FTL series, makes me feel like a young egg in my carton again

Fellow bald ?
“a young egg in my carton” man this hits 😂
This is a renaissance era, and I love it
Brother, NL has been in the Renaissance for like the past two years
@@TheLeadDealer- ever since slay the spire imo
The saga of Malf had me rolling. He lived, he died, he revived!, he died again, he reincarnated!, he got left alone with 2 hungry mantis and suffered from the sins of the egg.
The most intense drama series ever witnessed
“Engi’s don’t even breathe oxygen”
"Let he who is not horn cast the first sin." Words to live by
Honestly this series is absolutely pogged and I'm loving it.
I concur
1:26:48 the fact that you can uno reverse enemy mind control is part of the reason this game is still amazing years later
4:17 Mad man tries to fight giant alien spiders, you'll never believe what happens next!
Whats so bad about it? It seemed pretty easy
@@alfonzaha6642 That event is often skipped unless you have a blue option because it often ends with the death of a crewmate
The whole fight at 36:00 is just like egg daddy left his brain on the sidewalk
Watching him remove power from engines to power medbay with several power in reserve absolutely killed me lmfao
Another instant click. FTL is still one of my favorite games of all time.
yeah it really is a masterpiece of a game
Every NL vid is insta clicked
Same on both fronts
the soundtrack is a timeless pog in my opinion
@@slavicman-bd7jn the mantis explore theme is ultra supreme pog
The music in FTL is peak nostalgia for me... makes me so happy and emotional at the same time lol
It's the perfect ambient sci-fi soundtrack imo
Absolutely. And the original soundtrack for me even more, i did not like the remix that much.
dunk....dunk...
dunk dunka dunk dunka dunka dunk.
hacking malfuction (battle) goes HARD
I was looking to buy this game because somehow I'd never seen it before. Then NL's all like "you probably got it from a Humble Bundle" and would ya look at that I've had this game for 3 years and never played it once.
As someone with a few hundred hours in the game. You are in for a very well made game. Good luck captain!
You are doing yourself a disservice by not playing it. The game is _that_ good. No one would guess it has been nearly a decade since it's release

All other ships have been real quiet since NL stayed on the Kestrel
Is Kestrel based on the enemies from Rogue? Just came from the Dan video on Rogue. POG G I N G I N G
sometimes i watch nl play sporcle and i’m like “man nl is pretty smart huh”
then i watch him play ftl and i’m like “intelligence do be manifesting in different forms”
What a smug comment
NL is still playing sporcle? I gotta see his big brain some more
The sheer amount of trade offers being made here definitively prove NL's superiority in the realm of economics.
“this ship cannot damage me”
*takes damage*
this is always fun to watch. as a humble reminder make sure you're watching your crew for when they finish repairs, finish being healed, etc.
1:05 claims to not be part of the federation while inside a federation ship. Lol.
Hey NL really appreciating this FTL content
"The most stylish war crime"...oh NL, don't ever change.
i still remember your old FTL series, one of my fav :) so glad this is back
Trade offer :
I receive 2 hours of pog from 2012's best roguelite
you receive 2 hours of watchtime
Not going to lie, this got me back into FTL, even if it’s just the iPad version due to computer issues. Thank you Egg.
He will never lose this run
Cereal
I had a God run going the other day until I warped into an asteroid field with the random event that removes shields against a drone with 2...TWO!!! Mark II combat drones.
'NL tries to perfect Madden robot voice' is one of my favorite story arcs ever.
10:45 I would _love_ a Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee-style show where it's just NL and Jerma getting Taco Bell
NL, with 6 extra power and no shields: "Let's power down the engine a little to power med-bay."
PoGGY.
I think FTL was the first series I started watching on this channel about 7 years ago. It's been a wonderful experience watching everything here and on twitch ever since. Thanks for this trip down memory lane and for reigniting my interest in this game!
More like pre-igniting eh
man the music is still very pog and nostalgia energy. really enjoy this content NL keep it up
Never would have thought this entire video would be a single run... I really did forget how long FTL winning potential runs were. It's coming back to me now, back then when a video was like 30 minutes longer than normal you knew it was a won run or at least a flagship potential run
Thank you Egg for this blessed content.
Thank you NL for making me reinstall FTL and falling in love with it all over again.
Loving the FTL, NL
I am ALWAYS down for an FTL run, it is the best rougelike imo.
This has like nothing to do with FTL but thank you for calling it a roguelike. I have been seeing "roguelite" everywhere to the point that I thought I was crazy and have been saying it wrong all my life 😂

Love seeing more FTL, such a meditative thing when it's NL playing this
Ftl is a classic and I enjoy the game so much. Both watching and playing it myself
I always get excited about new FTL vods up on yt thinking it's one I haven't seen and then ten minutes in I recognize a bit and just god damnit
Two hours of FTL has me pogging like nothing else
I need to time travel to the future so I can go back and binge the series.
ive been wanting to see NL play FTL again for so, so, so, so long now, and finally when i completely forgot that i wanted it, here it is, what a treat.
Gotta say I missed this series, was one of my favorites among enter the Gungeon back in the hay day. Good to enjoy nostalgia
Two hour FTL video,pog
9:10
"My laser is better than yours, I can teach you, but I'd have to charge."
Hah! I see what you did there! 😄

Unexpectedly, he became one with the virus an received god-like powers only to die in the next combat at the hands of two bloodthirsty mantis attacking the ship.
Thanks for playing FTL. I love watching this game. FTL + Egg Commentary = Legendary.
I think FTL might be in my top 5 favourite games of all time, i dont recall if ive seen you do a series on it before, probably have and ive just forgotten, but man am i pogged to see this
Dude, I used to watch NL play FTL when I was a teenager and I loved it. I'm now 22 and I still love it!
Praise EggDaddy
That Robomalf returns as Virus arc was incredible
"I don't know what I could have done better there."
Probably not sending your max level Engi into a room with no oxygen while there are still enemies aboard.
I've loved watching these FTV streams so far. Please continue the series :)
Fell asleep listening to NL playing FTL last night. Life is good.
Started playing FTL again after watching NL start playing again. I missed this game. It's sooo good.
I went back in with the multiverse mod since I never modded FTL, and it just made a game with ridiculous amounts of content have even more ridiculous amounts of content. The game just don’t die.
I was watching todays SNKRX. I saw FTL post. I'm now watching FTL.
this is such a fun series so far. like i know NL already ahs experience but seeing him get this far in his 3rd run is wild. Hoping for some more vids of this
That was such a good run! I feel like the end boss' missile drone was the enemy MVP.
Just finish my first “Normal Difficult” run today! What a rush!!!
FTL Games made 'Sundog: A Frozen Legacy' back in the 80's -- It looked a lot like this, with top-down views of the ships, etc. I wonder if any of the developer team is from back then, or if they're just fans of the game. They also made OIDS... That one would be worth revisiting too.
Father To Luna content on fathers day pog
Blessed FTL comeback
Who could fathom the hateful scorn of the swirling stars!

Hooray! You're playing FTL again! I remember binge watching your first FTL series. You have progressed much NL. Even starting to use some advanced plays that you'll need for hard. I can't wait to see you play on Hard
That title is some famous last words alright...though the video length does give me hope.
I've been baited by long Spelunky videos before... But I still believe
Love seeing ftl, I had not yet been introduced to your channel when you first did your ftl series so I'm happy to see some new videos, just bought it today, incredible game tbh
Listen, anytime Malf does something, just expect it to end with him leaving.
This running gag is stupid funny.
The moment he started auto-firing the chain laser, I knew we were in for a great ride.
Noone is perfect, for sure (RIP Virus) but NL clearly has some muscle memory on playing FTL.
SOOOO glad to learn that I'm not the only nutbag that vocalizes orders to the crew. This was a lot of fun.
Haven't watched it yet, but judging from title, my Jeff Goldblum prediction is: "Egg, uhh, finds a way" ;)
FTL top tier all time NL lets play
NL went "Goodbye baby" and my google assistant popped up lmao
NL, In a vain attempt to keep this series going, I'm having a lovely time
Ngl this was highly entertaining, more FTL please!
Super excited to see FTL again!
Actionable advice, vent the whole ship except the medbay and cockpit. Move your three crew to the medbay. The mantis will probably go to the medbay as its closer than the cockpit. Dead mantis.
I just bought this as a result of the videos and I'm having a very good time!
'I should buy fuel'
*Buys no fuel*
'Our fuel's in a bad spot'

Imagine being the one telling NL to cloak on missiles in phase 3 of the boss fight
The baby reaching for NorthernRyan was so cute. She must have seen her reflection.
begging for the location of a better bit than "john madden voice" through text
R.I.P. Virus.
Getting an early upgrade for the door subsystem (which is really cheap) is so crucial to prevent issues like these.
dang I think ftl was one of the first things I ever watched NL play. This is nice.
this got me back into FTL and I've lost 3 games in a row at either the 2nd or 3rd boss stage. I hate this now!
Happy Egg Day Father!! Thanks for a 2 hour upload of one of my favorite series🎉🎉
The man don't miss with the content. Poggy
“I want every gun we have to fire on that man (Liam)”

Probably one of the best series to pick back up 👽
My Lord, you must make more use of automatic fire for all weapons! Love this glad to see FTL back after all this time.
You know pogs will be had when you see a 2 hour FTL video
I'm gonna hit you with this Faster Than Like very time you play this game
Absolutely insane maniac, fighting the giant alien spiders. Those things are brutal.
my absolute favorite new NL series!
Man, I love FTL and I love you playing it
With a title like "This is unlosable" I would have thought it would be (FTW) and not FTL.
The presentation of thos game blows most indy titles out of the water to this day.
