How the heck does anyone follow the chat?

Am I missing some secret? It scrolls by way to fast, and when it's a name I recognize I can never keep it on screen long enough to read what the hell is going on.


For messages at you specifically, when somebody clicks the reply button on your message you get a separate tab that saves the message. For the most part you don't actually follow the chat though. You just complain about a guest in an incredibly inappropriate manner and then throw up a <>
 
I like Alex too. But no doubt he has always been polarizing in the GB community. Saying watching videos with him is "painful" is a bit much though, no matter how you feel. I can understand him having a knee-jerk negative reaction to GAF/Reddit if he has too read too many comments like that.
 
Please stop poisoning the Giant Bomb well with his name.

Alex is a lot like Ryan. just listen to him with Vinny on Shovel Knight and imagine Ryan talking instead. he's great when he's just riffing on a game, but he tries too hard to manufacture actual jokes (rather than just being a cool funny dude) and he's not very good at it.

he'll find his stride i think.
 
Drew and Jeff are rocking it with the quick looks, so many videos.
Spintires was fantastic.

BEAST stream also a pleasant surprise.
 
Vinny versus Patrick's countdown was the most intense action on Giant Bomb since Windjammers at hour 24 of the livestream. That was great. I don't know what I'd do if a GB stream actually went smoothly. It wouldn't feel right.
 
I generally like Alex. I used to really dislike him but that was only because what I'd seen of him was from PAX panels. After watching the E3 streams and other stuff, I like him.
 
The Alex hate is super weird.
You people are weird.
Stop being weird.
It's usually the same guy doing it. Never understood why people need to repeatedly hate on people in here.
 
Holy hell, Spintires is like a driving game version of QWOP. It looks hilarious.
 
The game volume on quick looks this week lower than it usually is?

The crew got all their gear back, right? I must imagine it's a side effect of not having someone in the control room.

Yeah Rorie was in the control room and (for the Spintires QL specifically) the game audio was incredibly low. I don't know if Rorie was picking up audio in the room and it wasn't being recorded or what, but it really took away from the QL.

Hopefully the new video guy pops up soon.

Apparently that was a game issue.

the other QLs sounded alright tbh


Awwww, that's terrible. Alex being present in more video content has been one of my favourite changes to Giantbomb, Alex is great. I can't wait to see more of him and Vinny together.

Indeed. he's finally not trying too hard and just let stuff flow.

not really getting the hate

I just don't understand the Max Tempkin like "what are you doing with your lives watching this" type attitude that he sorta has too.

Do you actually think he is being serious when he says that kind of stuff?

Alex "Baby Face" Navarro is a top man. Top man, I say. BEAST is already delivering the goods. Vinny and Alex are great together, no stride finding required.
