Ryan use to push to like 6pm and later.

I don't think it's been late compared to what it has in the past, but it seems late compared to when they record especially when you compare it to the Beastcast. I think having it later after they record puts it closer to the Beastcast which makes it just weirder to have 2 podcast without distancing them more.

It is still pretty early Tuesday for them, he gets it up around like 1pm or something most of the time. So I don't really think it is that much of an issue for them personally.

Membership sale literally a week after mine auto renews. Great.

Well, does anyone want my coupon code? It's completely useless to me since shipping to Canada costs more than $15.

 

[RepairmanJack]

Do people really think that the bombcast has been late lately?

You guys don't remember the ryan years do you.

Played overwatch from 8pm to 3am

I found my new tf2 .

They need longer game modes, I would want a 5CP mode

Yeah, the games can end awfully quick, especially if you're on a bad defensive team. It's much easier to get curbstomped than TF2.

 

[giant_frying_pan]

Late Bombcast = 00:00 Wed Pacific Time and onwards.
Early Bombcast = 25:59 Mon Pacific Time and earlier.

Just deleted Clash Royale. Feels pretty good.

I've fallen off a lot, but still enjoy it from time to time. I feel like I'm only playing to get chests at this point and I should probably just quit.

I wouldn't mind picking up a Luchadeer shirt

I wish I had grabbed a VinnCo shirt when they were still around

Don't they always have a sale during the big live live show live

Are they even having one this year?

I've been close many times. Dropping 200-300 trophies is frustrating.

 

[stump sock]

they're not allowed to until they fulfill their blight club promise

 

[Piston Hyundai]

Pretty glad they didn't totally fuck Pang up.

 

[Lunar FC]

Lmao this bakalar smoking story.

 

[Gurrry]

I was paying 5 dollars a month for premium and just bought the year for 30. So in the end, they pretty much got the entire price out of me anyway. But I guess I got 1.4 years worth of subs in the end for the same price.. so thats good!

I just hope they keep doing power bombcasts. I realllllly want them to bring back unplugged. There are so many amazing board games now a days that I would love to see the guys play.

 

[TraBuch]

Oh shit. I somehow missed the news that Netflix renewed the best show with a terrible name for a second season.

You guys should totally watch Scrotal Recall.

Smite seems to have a pretty loyal fanbase. I wonder if he'd feel that way after playing that and Paragon.

I'm just gonna nod and ignore Dans opinion on games in that genre.

Those games are at least 3rd person, Battleborn is first person with a really narrow FOV which seems awful for a MOBA. Top down would still be better of course but having the increased awareness from 3rd person definitely helps make those games more enjoyable.

Yeah, I'm not defending Battleborn, but I feel like his problem is more to do with Battleborn being poorly design, than it is of Battleborn being FPS. I'm sure there's a competent way to handle a MOBA in first-person, even if Battleborn isn't it.

 

[Salarians]

- large cast with wildly different aesthetic styles
- creeps
- ults

Conclusion: Anarchy Reigns is a MOBA

 

[stump sock]

Battleborn's totally getting a 2 star review

 

[Twin Tails]

I liked Jeff talking about Blizzard going all in on Battleborn.

 

[killroy87]

Battleborn's totally getting a 2 star review

I'll be blown away if any of them play enough of it for a review.

 

[Scizzy]

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! I forgot I had the sound off when I renewed my subscription and I missed 50% of the celebration.

 

[TheMrPliskin]

Yeah, unless Dan decides to suffer through it but even that sounds unlikely based on the bombcast discussion.

You fucked up.

Just gonna have to buy another sub :V

I played a ton of Super Monday Night Combat and I don't think there's anything inherently wrong with a third person shooter MOBA.

I didn't realize SMNC lasted long enough for anybody to be able to play a ton of it. By the time I tried it out it was deserted.

 

[TraBuch]

There's a sound when you renew?

I think Steam has me at like 200+ hours. Really bummed it's completely dead now .

But then my future self won't be able to enjoy it

 

[Patryn]

I'll be blown away if any of them play enough of it for a review.

I feel like Dan really feels compelled to review the bigger games, so I honestly wouldn't be shocked if he gets a review out.

I think it's a holdover from his days at Game Informer. He hasn't really adopted the GB mindset of only reviewing a game once in a blue moon.

 

[kiguel182]

Watching the Snooker QL and it's so weird/funny how they treat Europe like this homogenous thing.

Also, apparently I don't know what snooker is. I don't know what I played anymore. It was either billiard or poll. I'm very confused right now.

 

[kiguel182]

You are missing out.

 

[broncobuster]

Looking forward to finally trying Overwatch. Everybody is hyping it up like Gabbo.

It's really fun, even as someone who doesn't care much for the genre. Loot was kinda shit though, but I'm hoping it improves as I get higher in levels.

 

[Salty Catfish]

It's fun! The controls feel good and the heroes are diverse but simple enough to learn in a few minutes (at least in how their abilities work...using them well is a different thing entirely). Their designs are great, too.

I assume that's intential. England = Europe.

I always preferred the original MNC .

Danny is irish.

I'm not sure if it's part of the joke or it is how it's viewed in the US.

I don't take offence to it or anything. Makes me wonder the amount of generalisations we do about the US too.

 

[justjim89]

I fear this Puroresu stream is gonna make me install Project64 and VPW2 again. And that's only a step away from getting back into No Mercy texture modding, and I don't wanna get back into that.

Not sure if its been posted in here before but we've got a Giantbomb Discord server that is starting to populate and become pretty active if anyone wants to join in on the shifty discord action.

Awww man, this music brings me back.

Apparently this'll only be an Alex and Austin joint according to Alex's twitter. No Vinny to enjoy all the wrestling silliness.
