It's Monday. Even if they recorded anything today it would not be on the schedule yet. A Monday live stream is more than we usually get.

They really do use a high-bit rate encoder. I don't have much issue with their video quality either!
the "HD" quality downloads have 4000 in the filenames for the quality, so that's 4Mb/s (MB/s???) which, either way, is better than most proper TV companies push out over the air or through their streaming service

Don't post lies on the internet
Some would say one of us lost more than the other.

I played Paragon for 3 minutes before uninstalling it.

As a complete MOBA non-expert, Paragon feels like by far the best third-person shooter implementation of it.

I had more fun with Battleborn.
It felt like the most direct translation of moba to 3rd person shooter. I liked it more than Smite, but I really hated Smite.

Edit: Nm. Thought I saw something new but I guess it was a stream from earlier today?
Imagine Brad's hair in VR.
C'mon, son.
Well I did say third-person, but honestly, I'd love to hear why.

don't forget the whole "posting hyperlinks with the text being fucked up" thing
I think it's because it's an action game first while the MOBA elements are secondary. Smite and Paragon are definitely too MOBA-y for my tastes. There is fun to be had, underneath the questionable design choices and usability issues, but I also couldn't recommend the game. Just too many little issues that add up, which were especially noticeable when playing it after the hyper polished Overwatch beta.
I'd be happy to try another game with a similar action-to-MOBA ratio.
uhhhhh...
On Topic, coming from a background of being a software developer, it gives me weird feelings to see things like the IDE they were using (I'm pretty sure it can be described as that) on the Beast stream and be like "I haven't seen a single curly bracket" or "the whole thing is saved in one file"
This I suppose is a good thing to abstract the design from the implementation.
Also, AdVenture Capitalist's number continue to go up, someone help me
was kinda weird to give dude flak for a topknot

everything i have seen of the last couple of Deus Ex games has seemed incredibly dull and I really don't understand the hype.

It's funny to take that and then contrast it to that Uncharted video they did with Cowboy, where he talked about literally optimizing code around the physical hardware arrangement of the PS3's coprocessors. The idea that a project of that scale still micromanages computation on that level is wild.

I hope GB orders one and Jeff puts it on, for research sake.
