Witnessing Jeff play Bloodborne is like your parents taking you to Disneyland: It happens once in a blue moon and most of the time your parents are miserable during the stay.

It's too late Myggen, I've already watched the entirety of the Burnstar QL. It's far too late for me.

Despite how well Jeff did, it still seems like he didn't really enjoy the game that much.

it's just not his type of game i think

Wait, I don't get the elephant in a safeway bag joke.

There is no F in way. There is no effin' way.

Oooooh.

That might be the most Dad joke I've heard in a while.

 

[FStop7]

The MLB quicklook... Dan referring to "ironic bicycles" killed me.

 

[MG310]

I'd like to think Dan's injury was caused by a week straight of aggressive sign waving at wrestling.

The things he sacrifices to spread the word of Waluigi.

 

[EdReedFan20]

Shiftlings, Axiom Verge, MLB 15.

edit: Someone made a Metal Gear Scanlon game, it's preeeeeetty dumb!

Spoiler

I won Dan's money!

Now he only needs to get Waluigi to win this SSB ballot.

Dan is just straight out hitting on girls on Twitter now. God bless him.

 

[Wunder]

Is there a link to the latest UPF?

You do see what she is holding in her Twitter avatar, right? If not, it's Dan's new anxiety book. I don't think he's hitting on her (not intentionally at least).

 

[Keyser Soze]

Anxiety as an Ally is the ultimate aphrodisiac!


...feel free to use that as a pull quote for marketing purposes

 

[Antiwhippy]

Oh motherfucker, why is the managed livestream showing the norcal regionals?

Was hoping on catching up Unpro Frids.

 

[Myggen]

Not that I know of, the normal link doesn't work so I guess you'll have to wait for the archive.

I don't get the camera complaints for Bloodborne. At no point during my playthrough was it ever an issue and if anything I thought it was way too far out in most scenarios which didn't impede playability but made it harder to appreciate textures. Now Ninja Gaiden is an example of a series that actually has an unbelievably terrible camera system.

 

[alr1ght]

It just so happened that Jeff seemed to catch the worst of the camera when he was playing. It's usually completely fine.

Now Ninja Gaiden is an example of a series that actually has an unbelievably terrible camera system.

I think the fact that the camera can collide with objects leading to it messing up the view (most noticeable in area's with tombstones or tight corridors like the CB arena) combined with the fact that some people want to blame something other than themselves to vent frustration and the camera is the easiest target, leads to the hyperbole with the camera system. It's not perfect, but it's certainly good enough to function properly.

 

[Ken]

I just turned off auto-adjustment for camera.

 

[erawsd]

That first boss is the only one I can recall being annoyed by the camera. Its really a consequence of the huge enemy+narrow space. Every other large boss is fought in an equally large space.

 

[Phionoxx]

Jeff did real well. Made it way further with much fewer deaths than most people on their first couple of runs.

 

[Curufinwe]

Yeah, you learn there's ways to work around it by not backing yourself into corners or getting too close to very big enemies etc. It's basically the same for a lot of 3rd person action games like Souls, Revengeance and such.

Revengeance certainly had some camera issues, but was still a great game.

 

[shadyspace]

It is funny as hell how deferential everyone is being to Jeff while he plays Bloodborne. "Heal again... I recommend."

 

[funkystudent]

Jeff is shocking decent at Bloodborne.

Or so the tale goes.

Remember how Jeff said he tough it would be funny if he got secretly good at DOTA2?

Maybe he has actually gotten secretly good at Souls game.

Exactly! That's step one of deception: look here, not there.

 

[No_Style]

It is puzzling that From chose to expose the weaknesses of their camera on the first boss. Thankfully it gets better from there.

Those McDonalds chicken nuggets look so good.....

FUCK IT. Making a McDonalds run after work tomorrow.

Get a McFlurry too so you can dip your fries or nuggets into. Real good. It's what I used to do.

Don't lie to this person, nothing at McDonalds is 'real good' It's all awful but eat it anyway because fuck cooking.

 

[Infinite Justice]

it would be fucking hilarious if we lived in a world where Jeff was actually Potato Marshall.

Oh man that sounds so good. I'm gonna go light on lunch so I don't hate myself tomorrow.

Edit: Well hate myself even more.

Go to Burger King and get some chicken fries instead.

Go all in and get both... and a pizza.

Jeff's Randy Orton impersonation was great.

jeff would actually be really good at dota

he has the mind you can tell

he has that next level 3 dimensional chess think in him

I don't like chicken fries. Not enough chicken for me.

Though if they're still doing like the 1.50 thing for a 10 piece nugget I might go there instead.

That's too much! Even though I'll be walking around for 12 straight hours waiting and carrying heavy trays, I'll probably throw up halfway through.

Jeff seems pretty interested in Bloodborne.

I'm not sure it's possible to eat that amount of fast food without your heart exploding.

Oh of course! Why else would anyone else want to venture to the hellscape of New York city?

It'd be amazing if Patrick's departure was planned by GB, so that he can pull a WWE heel turn at Kotaku, and return to GB live on the Big Big Live Show Live.

Bring back the belt Patrick!

BB is GB's GOTY. calling it now.

As much as I'd love to bring Danny over to the BombSquad, the idea that they would hire him for this job and then pack him off to New York would be too cruel.

I'm not ready to join you yet, but I bet it gets in the Top 10 at least.

 

[convo]

Jeff being decent at the intro to Bloodborne isn't that shocking but i don't think he alone as one person can brave through the game alone, someone would need to help him out on the basics of the game. He is the last guy i expect to be patient on the long run with the game. Did the others say anything to help him? If this actually becomes a breaking Jeff, than that would take priority over reforming Dan's eating habits.
