Man seeing all my friends go bananas for S&M makes me want to play it a lot, the most recent one was a couple of gyms in Black, i'm curious to see how much its evolved since.
Hope the Star version rumors are true!

Bahhh, they were so close to 100k subs before the 21st.

Ohh, well, its close enough. I think they can celebrate 100k haha.

??? They're at just over 99k now and still have a couple of days left, they should easily make it to 100k.

I'd be up for that, it'd be pretty cool.

It took me 27 and a half hours but I finally got ending A in NieR Automata. Whew. Great game so far, I can't wait to start digging into path B tomorrow. My play time is a bit lengthy but a lot of that was spent on side quests, upgrading weapons and fishing, so it should save me some time later on. I think my side quest completion was 52% and I only had 7 or 8 fish left the last time I looked.

I also watched Logan earlier today. I wasn't expecting it to match the hype (GAF and a lot of others thought Civil War was amazing) but it's pretty great. If only the mainline X-Men movies could be anywhere near that good.

Nier pissed me off last night. Said something about a boss in the city ruins, ran towards it and it said I abandoned the mission. Hadn't saved in 2 hours.

Accidentally got that ending at least, but I ragequit last night. Thank god the game is good enough to redo that progress.

My condolences man. I feel the pain although for me it was a case of not even being able to be mad at it because I felt so trolled. Lost ~2 hours to a certain ending (K). Which well ends the game and makes you continue from your last save.

Ouch, yeah I lost 30 minutes of progress around that same point because I accidentally unequipped my OS chip lol. That taught me to a) Save a LOT and b) Not unequip my f'n operating system.

If the trends over the last few weeks hold up, they're going to fall just short of the 21st.
I don't think they will mind too much though. Jones said a while back that 100K was a psychological barrier for advertisers / partners - so it's good thing, whenever it happens.

On the concert - it's way too late to suggest it now, but I kinda hope they have a 3rd party doing the recording. I trust Ian, but if there's ONE thing where they won't want camera or audio issues, it's this.

Styx wasn't great :(

Too true man I can't lie but if that would happen even if I know it isn't their fault at all it would still feel bad. Fingers crossed.

Oh my God that Easy Update game looks the worst thing ever. I'm not big into Tetris, but the randomass physics don't look fun at all. I got annoyed just watching it.

I don't think it's randomized. I think it's all based on physics with maybe hidden values like balance and tension.You just don't expect them in a Tetris based game. Of course a square would tip over if half of it is off the ground.

I really have no idea what it's going to happen at EZA in Concert, they'll have their personalities and charisma unleashed, and that's enough for me.

Also, do they accept suggestions for group streams/tournament games?

Patrons ($1 tier and up, so all patrons) can vote each week on the game EZA will be playing on their group stream or tournament. Each week a poll gets posted on patreon with the choices. As far as I know, Kyle decides which games go into the poll.

Ah, cheers, that makes sense now. Only ~800 more to get to 100k looked pretty easy at a glance but looking at those trends, it looks like it might be a week late, which is still pretty good.

I'm expecting the Bloodborne musical x11.

As for suggestions, well Kyle does lurk in the deepest, darkest shadows of this thread, so I'm pretty sure he reads the suggestions we make. Whether he actually likes them enough to follow through on (or remember) them is another matter though.

Going by the quality of easy updates and the recent tech difficulties I wouldn't really trust Ian with the task, lol. I imagine the attendees would appreciate it as well if Ian was able to dedicate his attention to them rather than focusing on filming.

It seems like a good opportunity to shoot a new promo video for them with some 120 fps footage of jolly people with jolly music, hope the recordings and video turn out well.

Finished NieR Route A, boy that was good.

I hope we'll get to see other Allies play it, especially Huber and Ian (the latter even more so because i think he'll love the meta aspect of this game).

Today's vid is the only one so far that has made me burst into laughter mid-editing process. I mean, I've laughed before when finding/compiling the clips, and giving the whole video a run through before uploading. But never while simply just editing, adjusting audio in short bursts etc.

That yes moment was so ridiculously stupid. Love it. LOL.

Yes the 12 hour mega stream is confirmed and ready to go. I'm taking off work for that one

Also I just saw the anime movie Redline for the first time. Sooooo awesome. It reminded me how amazing and awesome anime can be. I'm feeling the urge to dive back into anime after a decent break. My hay day was late 90s/early 200s

It'd be a good idea for someone to make a non-Community thread for the mega stream maybe the night before it starts and draw a bit more attention.

That was funny, but no, it was Kyle's dumb "yeeess" bit that led him to losing his mind for a couple of minutes. First time I saw it, I was laughing harder than Kyle was. I am a sucker for stupid shit like that, but really did not expect to burst into laughter while editing it. (and I rarely ever laugh out loud while I'm alone, even when I see something really funny)

Also, as a side note, I am always amazed at just how Kyle manages to play Tetris while doing bits and reading comments at the same time and what not, but this was just ridiculous. If I burst out into laughter like that, everything basically stops, but he kept on playing, and his run didn't end. He was playing better Tetris in that state, than I do without any distractions.

So, for those that watched the podcast this week I have a surprise for you.

Remember the bet regarding the number of words in the most recent comment on Styx Shards of Darkness Launch Trailer that Brandon won?

Well take a look at this

They checked the other most recent comments as well on the spot (because it was such a weird comment) and counted those up, and those would've resulted in Kyle winning, so it still would've been a win for the red eagles either way. So no need to forfeit the point, but maybe next time if Jones wins, Kyle gets to do the final word etc.

This is what happens when I'm up late night editing and need something to distract me for a bit to refresh my mind. Still better than the last time, went all detective gaf, spent 10 minutes and compiled a list of quotes and outed someone as a liar.

The groups stream poll has only one bad choice (Super Metroid), that's a surprise!

Vote for Here Comes the Pain, but I wanna see "2 players 1 cart" Double Dash.

At first I was hesitant to pick Wrasslin because only Brad and Huber are really into it, but the custom character idea is awesome

Of course, Nintendo games will win

Immediate reaction was Mario Party (which was winning handily when I voted), but after I actually read the post I feel like the only choice is Smackdown. Who doesn't want to see them all create their own characters and wrestle?

I used to play Smackdown games with my fellow wrestling games fans relatives. When HCTP came out my cousins saw us play Royal Rumble and wanted to jump in. Afterwards everytime they came over they asked to play Royal Rumble and we would pass the controllers around with every elimination. It was great fun.

Smackdown are fun games indeed. Although I haven't played one in years and I didn't play a lot of the last one I bought, I have spent a LOT of time playing "WWF SmackDown! Just Bring It" with a friend back in the day.

I didn't vote for it however as it takes some time before you get used to the controls and I can imagine people getting frustrated by the game because of this. They are quite complicated games and I have tried to play it with other friends and most of them just got tired of getting beat because they didn't know the moves (I have to admit that the fact that wrestling isn't big in Belgium was probably not helping).

If everybody knows how to play, it will be great and if not, I hope they all have to figure it out. I don't think it will be an interesting match if one or two of them know the game and the others don't.

That said, if it's one of the top 3 voted games, I am fine with it (I voted for Mario Kart as I am not the biggest Mario Party fan).

Redline is simply amazing. First time I watched it I felt my ears and eyes going numb from all the stimulation.
