Trying to catch up on videos since I've been a little tied up the last days.
Rainbow Moon... I'm sure there are a lot of people that will enjoy it, but that game looked dreadful to me. I don't think I could stand to play it. I only made it like 10 minutes in before I started skimming the video hoping it got better looking. Couldn't make it... Just not my kind of game.
DCS: Black Shark 2 was mind blowing.

Not only did they land successfully, but they also SHOT DOWN ANOTHER AIRCRAFT?! Oh snap, Drew's getting good now. That stuff around the 55 minute mark was great, haha
Except it was a friendly.
More like DENIS Dyad

I thought the Black Shark 2 QL was kinda boring.
Bring back Random PC Game and Load Our Last Save plz.
I thought he shot down an enemy.
No, it was another Ka50 plus it was red meaning it was part of the east faction, blue is west. So he shot down a wingman that was circling him most likely.

Quick Look: Endless Space (Brad/Vinny/Drew) (1:07:22)

Nice, that should have some potential.

After playing Civ V for 26 hours I guess I can look at more 4x games!

Endless Space's military UI will humble you real quickly, even on easier difficulties. It's a great 4x game.

So there's a giant race of robots with multiple legs that stomp around and they're called the Sowers? Really?
I'm hearing past Brad and really enjoying the menu music. Seems pretty chill.
I am halfway through this QL and I already want this game. Love the super clean UI design. Well when the Holiday Sale on Steam comes around the MAc version should be out

I hope Endless Space is this week's TNT - I'd love to watch Brad go against other space fleets and empires for 2-3 hours.

Endless Space looks great! Its big and expansive, yet having never played a game like that before I feel like I have the basics down just by watching the quick look.
They always seem so scared of anything DOTA related. I mean I am not great at it but it really is not that hard to get into it.

Brad seemed stoked about Dota 2 before he had access to the beta but more recently he's brought up that it's not in a good state for new players, yet.
Has he played it at all? Starcraft skill doesn't really translate to those kinds of games.

Brad was way into original DoTA back in the day.

He mentioned that he'd played it on the podcast but didn't want to talk about it for whatever reason.
Someone probably realised they were all they had this week and moved them up. I saw them too, scheduled for two and five hours ago, though, yeah.

They haven't done Pokemon Conquest yet? I guess I've been playing it enough that I made up the memory of them doing it in my head. lol

The case was shown sitting on Jeff's desk weeks ago.
Yeah they should do that. They've haven't played any of the Ys games, would like to see that.

IIRC after the Winter Sale a few months ago, Jeff and Dave were talking about a SPAZ quicklook on Twitter, but nothing came out of it, outside of maybe a quick bombcast discussion.

It's a real shame this has been such a slow week, the last few weeks prior have really felt like they were starting to get back on track.

Looks like we're getting 3 more QLs in the next 2 days.

Interested in what parts of Rhythm Thief they end up showing, since there's a variety of rhythm games in that one. Some reminiscent of other Sega rhythm games like Space Channel 5 and Samba de Amigo.

Pokemon conquest looks pretty fun, also ryan and vinny are the best duo

The art may be "escaped from Facebook" levels of bad, but the music is very alluring.
Let's just say I am glad I watched the developer walkthrough before I watched Ryan play the same mission badly.

Damn the pop ins are so bad. But guess that would be fixed on pc.
