Fuck I can't wait til September 1st. Because of Grow Home.

 

[NumberThree]

holy shit at just after 24 minutes in. hahaha

That was great. Jason got real fucking serious there.

Spoiler

As he should.

 

[DamnBoxes]

I can't wait to get my hands on Grow Home. That looks like a lot of fun.

Grow Home is so good. Hope you'll enjoy it too!

 

[Volotaire]

Hi Glitches!

I wonder when we are getting the Rocket League Rematch. It can't be this week so I'm hoping the next.

 

[jaina]

I'm happy about Grow Home, but don't care about the other stuff. But it's rarely been a PS+ month without 2 games I'm interested in.

 

[Sleeping Lesson]

So is Metal Gear good guys?

Also hi.

Hey bud! We all missed you, every one.

 

[TheMrPliskin]

Is that the next Splatoon Splatfest?

I feel robbed that Europe isn't getting the Transformers one.

Wait, what!?

So is Metal Gear good guys?

Also hi.

Welcome back! It sure sounds like it.

 

[Incandenza]

I think I'm just bitter knowing this thread is going to be 80 percent Metal Gear for like the next week or so.

It's already been 80 percent Metal Gear for the past month.

Spoiler

And now that I've mentioned Metal Gear in this post I can put literally anything I want in these spoiler tags and be confident that nobody will click on it. Hi Glitches. Welcome back.

 

[giant_frying_pan]

Wait, what!?

I think we're getting Singing vs Dancing instead.

 

[TheMrPliskin]

I think we're getting Singing vs Dancing instead.

Splatoon confirmed for worst game of the year.

 

[Myggen]

Don't worry. Honestly, I don't care about Metal Gear enough to even seek out spoilers.

I'd also like to think I'm considerate enough to avoid ruining people's experience.

Doubt it. To discuss MGSV would almost by default require spoilers, and I hope people keep that to the dedicated threads. I hope there's not much MGSV talk here. When people discussed MGS in general it was partly related to MGScanlon, so at least we had that excuse then. Discussing one game at great length excludes those who don't care about that game in a thread that should be about GB.

I think the nature of the Mother Base development stuff as well as the openworld lends itself to plenty of opportunities for this thread to go into Metal Gear chat while still avoiding spoilers. But I'm sure it'll be fine to come in here without thinking it's another Metal OT.

 

[LiK]

Dan is a fast food enabler.

 

[justjim89]

What has two thumbs and just spoiled the big final MGSV twist for himself whilst searching for technical support for a problem with Ground Zeroes?

This guy.

God damn it. I was being so careful. Fucking shit.

 

[OdysseusVA]

Danswers got deep
I appreciate Jason sharing bits of his life.

Have you not noticed how many times you've had to redirect people to the Metal Gear threads already in this thread?

I laugh every time I see it happen.

 

[TheMrPliskin]

Would anyone here be interested in a copy of Ground Zeroes for PC? As I might have a spare copy.

 

[avengers23]

Oh boy, Metal Gear can't come and go soon enough.

The news about Armello's developer is discouraging.

Sorry, daydream. I have to choose sides.

 

[Freedom = $1.05]

yeah, im pretty sure i was accidentally spoiled on something that occurs at the very end of MGSV due to a review that was too forthcoming with the end than i really wanted it to be. Regardless, now i can't wait to push onward to check out wtf that review was vaguely referring to.

it does feel all warm and cozy to discuss MGSV in here, though. I hope it continues!

I have so many Danswers episodes to catch up on. I haven't listened to the last 13 of them.

I am angry about the Nutella (pronounced “new-tell-uh&#8221, and am going to create a thread!

I only listened to a few. not gonna lie, sometimes they get real depressing for me.

I mean, I suppose I can take solace in the fact that the best part of this game is the moment to moment gameplay, not the story. But I feel like I've ruined what little story is there.

I feel hollow inside now.

 

[- J - D -]

Depressing in the "how have I not accomplished more in my life?" kind of depressing or the "how is Dan such a manchild?" kind of depressing?

I just wanna gird myself.

 

[Resident4t.]

I listened to an episode when I was feeling super depressed and I needed something to laugh at and cheer me up. The episode ended up being super serious and it kind of turned me off the podcast entirely.

I would be interested. I own it on the 360 but the resolution makes it hard to go back to.

 

[TheMrPliskin]

This Crusader Kings 2 playdate is great, I hope that GBeast comes back to it soon.

the former. those emails can get real dark.

I'm sure he's talking about some of the subject matter, like mental illness etc.

Hmmm, I should've guessed that it'd be the e-mails that would turn the mood real grim. I think I'll hold off on Danswers then, maybe save them for wintertime (the most depressing season) for when I really need perspective.

What review?

I think it was the Telegraph review. I don't know, as soon as i read it I started doing my best to try and forgot the whole thing happened

 

[Keyser Soze]

Most of the questions on Danswers are stuff I may have had problems with years ago, but come to realizations myself. Basically, the don't be an asshole stuff. The only thing I have no opinion on is the OkCupid stuff, as I never used online dating. I understand the "horrible guy at bar thing," but that never was a issue for me (probably as I don't drink), and every single relationship I was ever in seemed to be happy accidents. Meeting a girl when shopping and talking about pasta, or meeting a girl when waiting for a doctor's appointment when both of us sneezed at each other. I should probably do a weird ways to start a relationship listicle.

 

[No_Style]

I've only listened to two or three episodes that featured guests that I want to hear perspectives from but Danswers gets into territory which I don't come to a video game website for.

I have no problem with its existence; it's just not for me.

 

[LiK]

Don't get me wrong, I love Danswers but you definitely need to be in the mood for some of the more serious stuff.

 

[daydream]

welcome back, glitch!

Myggen is the best not-actually-a-mod.

oh, that's alright, anjin, i forgive ya

 

[BUNTING1243]

Man, Jason's had a real interesting life.

Come to think of it, that's probably the reason I don't listen any more. My life is serious enough. Giant Bomb is escapism for me.

This Crusader Kings 2 playdate is great, I hope that GBeast comes back to it soon.

I hope so too. I love Vinny reacting to that game.

I tried to replicate their starting position on my own, but I decided to make myself Italian. Big mistake since everyone around me is still a Norman and I'm treated like a foreigner. It has been amusing, at least.

 

[Myggen]

Agreed. Totally understand why it's not everyone's thing!

This was what I was worrying about with these reviews. People find it hard to write around important details. I have done four reviews for the Life is Strange episodes over the last year, and every time I write a review I try to explain just enough not to go overboard, and also try to not directly reference events of past episode. Trying to be vague but also reference some details is probably more hassle than it is worth, but I feel it the right thing to do - especially for games where the story is vitally important.

Welp, MGS:V nvidia code ebayed for $35 and redeemed. All thanks to MGS:Scanlon.

Having read it I think you might be looking into nothing? I can't see anything that jumps out to me as a spoiler.

Vinny guiding the ship while Austin and Alex attempt to reason with him is always good content and CK has some real potential for that.

It's amazing, because Jason actually looks younger than Dan.

 

[Data West]

jason talked a bit about his past during the extra life. definitely surrpised he gets so much work and gaming done when he talked about him having kids from an ex-wife and that he still kept up with his ex-wife

 

[Keyser Soze]

I would post in that thread!.

Jason def doesn't look his age. Anime keeps you young.

If only there were some duck people in CK.
