Formed in 2013, Liquid Courage is a three-man Let's Play series. The show is a weekly hour-long review of beer and video games. The hosts focus on maintaining constant communication with their viewers; their Twitch chat can be seen in almost every video, and they always request that viewers submit games to play or beers to drink.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Liquid Courage Crew are:

Flat Joy: The infrequent, monotone exclamation of "yaaaay" from one or more of the hosts when some minor task is accomplished.

 Liquid Courage (Lets Play) / int_24321e44
comment
Comes up all the time in the Neverwinter Nights 2 playthrough. Verbally berating NPCs, pushing other characters into traps, aggroing monsters back to squishy party members, the regrettable purchase by Flatline of a necklace of Fireballs, Tasty Freeze playing fast and loose with his spells. Poor Xolvomir was the Only Sane Man throughout.

Comedic Sociopathy: Flatline, during the Watch_Dogs playthrough. Gleefully mowing down pedestrians with his car, firing into crowds while pursuing a criminal, and causing untold thousands of dollars in property damage, cackling like a loon throughout.

Early Installment Weirdness: The show has notably got better in audio and visual quality over time. Also, the first two episodes of the series had the Crew drinking liquor instead of beer.

comment
Cryptic Conversation: To the frustration of Flatline. He notably became so fed up with the malarky of the protagonist of Lone Survivor that he gave the character the derogatory name "Hot Dog". "Hot Dog" is name-dropped a few times in later episodes, often used as a rubric for how much a member of the Crew despises a character. Almost a year after Lone Survivor was played, no character has managed to piss off the Crew as much as Hot Dog did.

Jump Scare
 Liquid Courage (Lets Play) / int_c04b1231
comment
Jump Scare: Happens quite a bit in some of the horror games on the show. The biggest jumpscare so far was near the end of Daylight, where the Witch scared Flatline so badly he bailed on the game entirely. Lampshaded by Flatline at the very end of Slender: The Arrival when the final monster jumps out.

Shout-Out
 Liquid Courage (Lets Play) / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: To a lot of things: Exalted: The Crew is in love with Exalted; most notably in the Strider playthrough, where they speculate on what Exalt types each character would be. Their IronClaw one-shot on Die Cast was inspired by The Dark Knight which was derailed by Karmic Pear right before the climax. Flatline will often recommend other media related to the game of the week for the audience to check out (Drive (2011) during Hotline Miami for example). The three are all avid fans of Markiplier and Game Grumps. The Crew cheerfully mentions if one of their contemporaries has played a game before they have. Flatline himself was a fan of some of the Something Awful era of Let's Players, including ProtonJon and Freelance Astronauts, mentioning the latter's Octodad playthrough as being very important to him. League of Legends is clearly the MOBA of choice of the Crew. There's a short poem at the beginning of Octodad: Dadliest Catch that references a similar poem from Nate's Vlogs.

Screamer Prank: Flatline shows a particular dislike of the genre as a whole, bitching almost the entire time they played the Luna Games. He cites his opinion that knowing it's a screamer arguably makes the whole experience stressful and un-fun.

Shown Their Work: The Crew each brings their life experiences to the table. Flatline has a degree in video game design and while he bemoans it, he will often point out game design tropes (such as what he calls "Puzzle Elements"). Xolvomir is very well-read in the fantasy genre, especially with respect to the works of Tolkien. Tasty Freeze has a vast knowledge of Old World of Darkness that he brings to the forefront occasionally. All three are avid tabletop gamers, and will explain (or sometimes lampshade) tabletop RPG influences in video games.
