I strongly advise remaining respectful and not speculating on cause or blame. That goes for everyone.

thanks, it is all speculation. I loved him as the host of giant bomb. I meant no disrespect but, seeing what he tweeted is what it is.

Oh wow, this is Bad News.
Rest in Peace Ryan.

 

[dave is ok]

34.

Wow.

R.I.P.

I was wondering where the I Love Mondays video was. Then I saw this thread.

My condolences to the family and friends of Ryan. His personality together with the other Giant Bomb members and early Gamespot times made me enjoy video game coverage. I hope he will be remembered fondly and that the sudden loss will heal in time for all those personally affected. It was a shocker for me as well, even though I always expected Ryan to go early. It always surprises you, the fact that it was just after his wedding makes it even sadder.

With sincere regards and condolences to the family and friends,

Steve

Great picture featured on Kotaku

 

[AngelsDontBurn]

What is wrong with some of you people? Stop trying to Matlock how he died. He's gone. That's the hardest and worst part out of all of this. Stop talking about pills, stop talking about obesity, stop trying to piece stuff together. I can't believe some of you have the audacity to even bring stuff like that up. This is not the time nor the place.

 

[cornerman]

Ryan seemed like a pretty laidback and good-tempered guy. My heart goes out to his friends, family, and all of you guys who followed him throughout the years.

(not tailored) as of a few minutes ago.

Just in shock.

 

[Cmagus]

Wow so sad RIP and condolences to his family.

 

[kiyomi]

RIP, Ryan. Gonna miss you so much.

 

[LegoDad]

NOt that it matters but those are probably tailored trends.

Those are tailored but it actually still is trending worldwide. fyi

 

[Gestault]

I can't imagine what his loved ones are feeling. I'm a complete stranger, only saw him in person maybe twice, and this feels...awful. Rest in peace.

 

[Ifrit]

WHAT?? I can't believe this, he was always great on GB

RIP Ryan

 

[awilliams213]

I never met the man in person but he was a joy to listen to. It's just heartbreaking to know days after getting married something like that can happen.

 

[Hulud]

No. Fuck. NO.

 

[Onemic]

WTF man???

RIP

How did this happen?

 

[Nymphae]

When I started listening to the Bombcast years ago I had never heard of Ryan Davis, but he eventually came to be my favorite member of the group. The Bombcast isn't going to be the same without him. RIP Ryan, you will be missed.

 

[SlasherJPC]

What a damn shame... I feel for the entire family and the gaming community.

 

[Forsete]

Very sad to read this. :/

 

[phosphor112]

"Hi everybody its tuesday!"

Fuck.... will never hear that again.

 

[Raide]

Fuck this shit, i am going some summer jams.

This got me hard.

So sad

 

[UnlovedJew]

Oh My fucking god. My condolences. His cheery attitude that he brought to everything Giant Bomb did was amazing. Hilarious guy. Just married too. I can't even begin to imagine what this does to Giant Bomb.

 

[Vire]

Everyone needs to watch this to remember what a pleasure and joy this man was.

 

[dreamfall]

Heartbreaking...

He will be missed greatly.

RIP

 

[SolidEyeSystem]

RIP Ryan.

 

[DasMarcos]

Can't say I was familiar with the man or his work but perhaps I should have been. I wish his family, loved ones, and friends the best.

 

[ultron87]

This is actually hitting me way harder than it probably should for someone I never actually met. I ma just so sad right now. My eyes are actually tearing up....

Same here. I guess it kind of makes sense when I realize that I've listened/watched a 2+ hour podcast and at least a few Quick Looks with him on it almost every week for the last five years.

 

[Tamanon]

What the fuck? Thoughts go out to his family and friends. That's incredibly shocking.

:/

 

[TwistedMind]

I don't know the guy but I watched the E3 bomb cast and he seemed like likable guy with great personality. My condolences with his family & wife.RIP.

Fuck

 

[Cranzor]

I'm in shock.

You'll be missed, Ryan.

 

[johnFkennedy]

Welp today marks the first time that I've cried over the death of someone that I've never met.

 

[Ouren]

What the fuck.





Thank you so much Ryan.
I love you.

 

[bsej87]

Some days the universe and the way it treats people just doesn't make sense and today is one of those days. My deepest condolences to all those affected by this.

 

[exmachina64]

Sorry for my abrupt comment guys. It wasn't my intention. Still can't believe this. RIP.

That's better.

 

[McHuj]

What a fucking bummer. RIP

 

[Geoff9920]

Fuck me... I was hoping this was a bad joke when I saw it. Didn't he just get married the other week? This is tragic. My deepest sympathies go out to his friends / family and his wife for their loss.

Jeff

 

[BadWolf]

Damn

RIP

 

[seady]

Good that he got to experience the new generation of consoles at E3… RIP

 

[YouEnjoyMySelf]

RIP

I didn't watch GB that much but he seemed like a cool guy.

This is just horrible news, my day is just ruined. RIP Mr. Davis, my thoughts and prayers go out to his family/friends and his wife.

I hate to ponder the reason for his passing, but I do question it as on July 2nd I saw this posted on his twitter and quickly deleted.

I've lost friends to opiates and it's no joke. You can easily OD if you don't know what you're doing or mixing with other substances. Really not much speculation to be had here.

 

[isual]

how did he die ?

 

[TheExecutive]

Holy crap. I feel so bad for the new wife and family. My condolences :-(.

 

[eXistor]

Holy shit, that came out of nowhere. R.I.P man and best of luck to everyone involved.

 

[Theorymon]

Holy fuck, I'm gonna miss you Ryan Davis, Such a funny guy, that motion sports quick look is what got me into Giant Bomb

RIP man

 

[Parakeetman]

Managed to get a hearty laugh out of him in our brief interaction.

Man this must be real weird for you too considering you were in a sit down with the guy not too long ago at the E3...

 

[PopcornMegaphone]

Wow! I always loved him on GB.

RIP

 

[The Librarian]

This is incredibly sad. Do we know how he died?

 

[Nerokis]

This is so sad. So unreal. I went from thinking this had to be, had better be, a joke; to thinking this was far too sudden, too ridicuously out of nowhere, he was so young and seemed so happy, and I wish I hadn't read those words; to just badly wanting to embrace my loved ones and tell them all I love them. The latter thing is something those who personally knew Ryan Davis won't be able to do anymore, and I am deeply sorry for that. His loss will be felt by many and for a very long time to come.

R.I.P., Ryan. My thoughts are with his family and friends. I'm so sorry.
