I love how the gameplay of Catherine is the thing that manages to persist even now.
Because the characters and stories certainly don't deserve to.

What's the best Total War game to jump into? Seems like a bit of a simpler RTS game, and I'm kind of into that idea. I'm drawn to just the medieval ones, but Shogun seems like it made some improvements. Is there one that's like, regarded as the best?

Shogun 2 was the first one I played, and I think it's regarded as the best modern one at least. I found Rome 2 to be disappointing, so I definitely recommend Shogun 2, plus the Fall of the Samurai expansion.

Also, there's an F-Zero-type game coming up on Games Done Quick. Probably worth tuning into.
Medieval 2 is my favorite one, but also the last one I played was Napoleon so I'm a bit out of date.

Thanks for the tip, this is pretty cool. Kind of hilarious how seemingly easy it is to trick the game into letting you go backwards.

Thanks guys. I'll get Shogun 2 then. It's not much more expensive than Medieval and seems far more modern.

I'm watching the Amped 3 QL again. Such a good QL.

my beautiful son
not sure i've ever seen this one.
It's basically just them watching all the crazy cutscenes.
I never realized the Amped series got so cool

It was the episode when Vinny decided he had enough of Giant Bomb San Francisco.

Hell yes, #Skate4 won.
Man, the whole steam item gambling thing needs some serious regulation. It's basically underage gambling through a legal loophole.
Remember Rami Ismail on one of the post-GDC streams a few years ago? He totally called that shit out in terms of exploitative microtransactions on mobile, but this shit is actually way worse than that.
And Valve's actively enabling that shit because it makes them bank. This is in serious need of a legal crackdown.

Wrong about commas, wrong about everything
I think Shogun 2 + Rise of the Samurai is the best one.
Though I really wouldn't describe it as a "Simpler RTS" game. It's really one of the more complicated mainstream RTS game out there if you don't play on some e-sports level. (Though it's still very managable)
Looking at the Humble Sonic Bundle (don't kink shame) lead me to check who'd been on GB's QL for Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed. The comments section for that video revealed that Dan and myself were far from alone in missing the subtle joke in Tails' name for the longest time.
I think the battles themselves are a bit simpler. You don#t have to worry about lots variabilities at a break neck speed like in Starcraft.
I kind of like hearing about what Dan knows and doesn't know
as long as it's about stuff that isn't deeply important

Why google when you can proudly proclaim your ignorance on twitter?
This is incredible.

I dunno, you can pause at any point (when you play against AI) but there are still a lot of things to consider. Moral, stamina, wind, if you charge up or down the terrain etc.
It's not that complicated (It's not Hearts of Iron 3) but I wouldn't call it "simple".
This shit is about a lot of money and getting kids to gamble, it's a new level of shit that these guys are up to. After millions of subs using all that revenue to create a gambling site is fucking amazing, it's so greedy. Even Pewdiepie is making fun of these guys.
Brad's in grumpy old man mode for this Star Wars Quick Look. Yes, that's really Harrison Ford and the rest of the main cast doing new lines of dialogue.

I don't agree with Brad on TFA but I'm glad he finally took Dan to task for his misinformed Fight Club opinion in this QL.

There's definitely a contingent of people that's simply mad there are women and black guys in Star Wars but there's plenty of stuff to criticize about TFA. That's exactly what Brad's talking about re: Fight Club. Don't let some idiots turn liking or disliking a movie into a political position.
