I'm in a town. The NPCs seem pretty untalkative when I walk up to them and poke them though.
Finally watching the trial, this is so great.
Yeah, just Huber. Adding in side-stuff like the cat races for flavor is great, but it feels like you have to compromise the major plot-lines to adjust to Huber's antics which in return can leave the whole thing full of holes and inconsistent.The town needing saving from those knights who have kept it safe the whole time
It seems like Huber makes up in his head where the story should go and refuses to play ball and go with the flow even when the others come up with other interesting solutionsand thus mainly turning it into the Huber-show. He doesn't seem to put much thought into any of it though and just goes with whatever pops into his head so it doesn't turn out very good.rescuing Law and trying to escape
Would also probably lower the exposure EZA gets significantly, dunno why you'd want that.
I find the group direction very entertaining, but would love tha Law has a littlebit more love for his own life.
And we are at a point that sees Law in putting himself in everlasting danger without consequences because no one want him to die. Maybe some sort of brand as a outcast of society and the consequences of that would be fascinating just because Law would be outright rejected by everyone in the world.
Who cares? Ben does, judging by his Twitter posts. Damiani does, considering what he posted above.
That's all I care about.
Exactly. It's like people cant handle jolliness so they try and tear it down. Even people in this thread who claim to be fans just go ballistic and try and shit on the Allies.
What I've been doing is that everytime someone does shit like that I put them on my ignore list. It makes it easier so I don't have to see it.
I'm also on Ultros...is there a fee?
Haven't played since before Heavensward was released.
I found the "Yup or Nope" section kind of dull. I, and I would imagine most people, don't really remember much about past E3s. Damiani thinking up games that were shown did help bringing some context into the discussion, but not enough to make it interesting to me. The thing is, even if I remembered all the games that were shown each year and the years hadn't all blurred together when I think back on them, I still wouldn't remember what exactly they showed from each game. I remember being impressed by Spore but I don't remember how it was revealed, what they showed, or if there were any other games that deserved to get the title more.
Maybe it's different when you're there on the show floor yourself, but for someone who just watches E3 every year through the internet, E3s just generally are very forgettable, unless there's a trainwreck press conference like the Konami one a few years back, or if there's a really huge reveal like Shenmue III and FFVII Remake. Ask me about this year's E3 six months from now, and I'll likely remember very little of it.
The vodcast/podcast was still all right listening material, but it was probably my least favourite EZA 'cast so far.
Here man! Image quality was a lot worse than expecting. I used a DSLR so obviously settings need to be adjusted for next one.Link it here when it's uploaded!
I'll just recuse myself from the podcasts going forward since people don't honestly like who I am and think it's an act or something.
I rewatched it in bits and pieces today, while showing my family. They were all pretty unimpressed... meanwhile I was crying from laughter. Again. They just don't get it. :,D (My Uncle laughed quite a bit at least!)
The whole thing is excellent. Blood going for blood, Brandon's Bosman despising, the Kingdom Hearts plot, the pizza guy and the coffee break. And just loads and loads of faces trying not to laugh.
If they're not invested in the personalities they're not going to care. I know I wouldn't
I love Huber and he's hilarious, but I think he needs to have a character die at this point. It was kind of ridiculous how often Hogger got himself into situations that should have ended in his death in TTA but somehow he always managed to scrape by.
Now Law is becoming Hogger II, and I think Ben should finally enforce some realistic repercussions for the character's recklessness.
Hah yea that was a funny back and forth.I just finished the Trial and wow that was funny. I laughed so hard when Damiani got called out on the insanity defense and he used the Kingdom Hearts fandom and anime conventions as evidence of his expertise.
It's weird thing this thread. It's our place to discuss EZA's videos, but EZA members themselves read it. I bear absolutely no ill will toward any of them, but we should definitely feel free to criticise, discuss, comment etc in this thread. Constructively, respectfully and without shitposting.

I'm just starting Tabletop Adventures and am curious to how the progrssion compares.
I'm happy that the other EZAs seem to love his presence though! Although him coming to EZA later on seems to be motivated by how well the Patreon was doing, not for the love of the group as some have said. Hopefully he can improve on his streaming abilities too.
Love and respect~

Sorry if it seems like I'm jumping on the bandwagon, but I've wanted to make a post about Damiani for a while.
I really do want to be able to enjoy his presence on podcasts and alike, but to me he brings a negative aura to the videos he's featured significantly on. As others have pointed out, he often interrupts others, doesn't present well-balanced opinions and generally seems to represent the more negative aspects of internet culture.
I used to think the same about Ian, but he became a more self-aware and positive individual in the last year or so and I was quite glad about that. I really do hope Damiani is similar because on the EZAs full of good vibes and a jolly people, he seems to drag a lot down.

You are 100% correct. It is strange it took this turn and the problem is trying to combat it is probably not really working.This thread is so weird. In a bad way.
Remember we're supporting them so they can be who they are.
Keep it up Allies, you guys are awesome.
Ok we need to get back...
So because of Ben i bought 999 for my 3ds and I never played the zero escape series. Problem is i also have Chrono Trigger (which i have never played as well). What to do?

Less sleep, more play?Ok we need to get back...

Changing the subject I noticed quite a few allies are big fans of anime, Ben, Damiani especially, I wonder if will get some anime on a episode of frametrap.
Maybe throw in Jones too!
Id rather that be its own one off show. Ben has mentioned concerns of having Frametrap stray too far from games and I agree. We get them every other week so I'd like it to be as much game focused as possibleChanging the subject I noticed quite a few allies are big fans of anime, Ben, Damiani especially, I wonder if will get some anime on a episode of frametrap.

He is with EZA from the beginning.
He lived in Texas, which is why he wasn't on the streams in the beginning.
He gave up a full time job to work more with EZA and he moved to LA.
What more of a commitment do you want?
That's 100% false, he was part of EZA from day 1 while he had a full time job because of the love of the group. His show was one of the initial stretch goals! The launch video has a teaser for him playing Wind Waker which he streamed on the Easy Allies channel in the very first week.
He was with EZA from the start. He only moved when his shows were unlocked and even then it was a crazy decision. He had a full time job in a different state and quit to move to the rest of the crew. That's a crazy move and did it because of the group and wanting to do things like Gane Sleuth which he's awesome at.
Also I love the increase in streaming quality and behind the scenes things he's added. E3 would have been way less entertaining without him on the helm. The intro/outros etc.
There's things I would like to see refined/improved as well. And I think your Ian mention is interesting. He's still Ian but I think with EZA he's gotten much better at being him and working with group.
I completely agree with this. Ever since they entered this town Huber has gone off the rails. No matter what happens he's being mr. opposite, dragging the stay in town out for no apparent reason.

Yeah I agree. It's less so that he needs to die and more keep in line with his character? Obviously Huber knows the character better than anyone so he can do what he likes but I feel he's moving towards Huber default mode I.e. Hogger.
I think Hogger actually died in TTA but Ben decided it wasn't canon or implemented a rule to save him. I.e. Something beyond a life saving throw.
No that wasHe became Mecha-Hogger right?
