Since this thread seems more visible I'm going to go ahead and quote myself, from the community thread, to this (lost?) Feature, GT(/
Ryan Stevens) produced a while back:
Cyclops
Thanks. Also, he does have a current thing he's doing.

It's... heavier than just any other podcast. I've only listened to like the first couple episodes, but I found them really interesting.
wonderful!
Was watching the Invisible Walls Ep200 office tour video. This was probably around Gametrailer's peak popularity (early 2012).
Don, still awesome back then.
Brandon with Marco, one of the videos editor, who has also appeared on GT live not too long ago.
Rohan, who was responsible for shows like Annoyed Gamer, Pach-Attack!, and Bonus Round.
Ian working hard.
Ryan, the living video games encyclopedia. Managed GT after Shane's departure.
Voice of GT.
Bosman talking to his boss man, Hoffman.
Matt Blair (?)
Justin Speer, one of the old fan favorite reviewers. Ben and Huber appear to respect his opinions a lot.
Damiani, creator of popular video series such as Pop Fiction and Timeline.
Chris, coordinates filming of various shows. Also appeared on Invisible Walls on occasions.
Shane, the person who made all this possible.
Rob Slusser of the "Slusser Cup".
Rich Brown, the other voice of GT. "Nuum-berrr Ten!"
Bloodworth showing off his games library.

I don't understand the point of this at all... of course he is doing it for his gain... just like brandon is doing it for his own gain, People usually do things for their own gain...it's being human
Their video player sucked, their original function (game trailers) was taken over by Youtube, their original shows were relatively costly to make but didn't bring in enough viewers (only a few tens of thousands per vid on Youtube).

This is the thing that has irked me the most. I mean, in reality, Gametrailers closing down was always an inevitability, a shitty inevitability, but an inevitability nonetheless.
But they should have been given fair warning. A week in advance at least. So they could go out in a way they would have liked, so they could post final videos with goodbyes, and thanks, or whatever.
For Defy to give no word whatsoever before hand and pretty much tell them to pack up and never come back right this instant is incredibly wanky.

I got Daniel Bloodworth and Daniel Kaiser mixed up, what happened to Daniel Kaiser?
Working in marketing for Epic promoting Unreal 4. Kayser landed on his feet.
so I never watched the Dungeons and Dragons podcasts at GameTrailers before, I guess I missed them for some reason.
Anyway so I found the playlist yesterday and started watching the first episode available there (ep 18 is the first one on YT because of Defy's inability to support its own business adequately) and to be honest I was lost for the first 30 minutes or so because they were talking about some random characters and a story I had no idea about...
but after I while I finally understood.. and man, what a joy ride!
Laughs! Adventure! and a better storyline than many video games!
here is the playlist link if you want to check it out.

I did the exact same thing, it gets really, really good. I miss Pervince. Hopefully the rest from the website are getting archived so you can get into the beginning half.

You need to watch it from episode 1 if you can, you're missing so many incredible moments.
It's not hyperbole when I say TTA was one of the most entertaining things I've watched in the past few years, games media, film or TV wise.

Never watched a single one of these.
Might as well now.
How can I start at number 1? Cant find anything on youtube.

They should all be there, but the database hadn't been fully cleaned up after the site migration.

After Viacom forced them to change their website (back on 2013, if I remember well), they lost a lot of links to older content, the player Viacom forced on them sucked and everything went downhill. With Defy things got even worse.
Before them, the site was so good to navigate. Use the Wayback Machine thing and investigate the site back on 2011 or before. You can't see the videos, but you can get how everything was better organized, more organically made and not so corporate-influenced (Viacom -and later Defy- modified GT's site so it resembled the sites of their other properties. A shame)..

What happened to Kyle? What happened to everyone? Are they still looking for jobs? Bloodworth, are you still here? Do you have any idea?Kyle's twitter picture is pretty fitting right now.
Man, I hope everything turns out okay for everyone.

Danny mentioned them on The Lobby this week and they talked about it for a bit.... they all work in the same space at CBS so I'm sure there was talk of it around there.
edit- Bombcast in the same space at least...

Would there happen to be any place with the game they did with chris perkins? I just learned about it and can't find a valid link anywhere.
I'm really beginning to feel the absence of GT, they really became a part of my daily routine with their jolly and funny content. It definitely feels like there's a gap now.
I really hope that even if they do decide it's better to split up and do their own things in life, they'll still consider doing a (bi)weekly podcast they can just do on the side of whatever their next venture brings them.

I'm glad TTA is still being talked about. I looked forward to it every week. I remember the
episode being the one that made me realize, "this is legit." At that point, the show reached that "special" level that other shows rarely achieve.
I know I got into D&D because of it personally
MURDER!!!

I'm still a little sad we never got a continuation of Brandon, Brad and Don's adventure...
