Back-compat stuff making older gamers run better is the coolest damn thing.

You get better framerates and the ability to do Xbox One shit like screenshot, recording, streaming and being in a big ass party chat. What's not to like?
Yes.
What game is that?

_/¯I'm late here, but the Nidhogg Unfinished was weird, i've never seen them recycle conten tlike that before. Doing another 20 minute video would not be a big endeavor, and it's not like they're against repeating themselves (they did it multiple times over the past two weeks, discussing the same topics on both Casts).
Not a massive deal, but it is a bit hilarious considering the site is so slow right now.

ETA until Mario Party? Give me the deeds Vinny!
Any cool new segments in the pipeline (next month or so)?
I don't need deets, just a yes or no haha.

Has the site's ability to produce content been hindered over the past year or so?

I wonder if Jeff means stuff like the power bombcast when he says fans treat premium content they don't like as if it doesn't exist
because if that's a wrestling podcast on your video game site... yeah
I'm genuinely curious what an average day looks like for you/Alex

I enjoy these casual chats while playing Mega Man, thank you both. Looking forward to more.
Question: Now that he's becoming available, on which GB feature will you have Barack Obama on as a guest?
Why doesnt megatron look like a nazi pistol anymore

Definitely.
I know of at least 3 we'd like to get going in 2017 out of the East Coast. 1 that would be an East/West joint. One of them is a limited run one, like Kerbal was, but will probably be premium this time around. Pretty excited about that one, could be a train wreck though... I guess that makes it more exciting?
I love you, Vinny.
Anything with train wreck potential if great by me!

are you going to get the nutcracker zenyatta skin for overwatch y/n
Do you think that your office could fit more than 3 regular duders?
There is a bigger overlap there than you think.
Hey! I'm curious- What has been the hardest part about your job under CBSi? Jeff mentions a lot of meetings from time to time but I'm curious if/how that impacts the East office as well.
Thanks!

okay, my question is, can you guys do more bad ideas? the bad ideas are the good ideas. you have Dan now. that man generates bad ideas.
Love you, Vinny!
What do you see as a bigger priority for GB going into 2017: live streaming or VOD content? Or is there a guiding principle y'all have for maintaining a good balance between the two?

I can specifically speak to the East stuff. After Austin left we took a hit. Which makes sense. If we didn't, he would have been a bad hire. With three people in this office I had scheduled out a minimum of 2 live shows, 1 podcast, and hopefully around 3 QLs. I think we hit that pretty well for awhile. More was always welcome. With two heads we've tried to hit1 live show, 1 podcast, and as many QLs as we can prep and record.

What needs to change to keep content from slowing to a trickle when there are big changes in everyone's routines? Stuff seems to completely stop when PAX, E3, GotY, etc happen. It creates a cycle where outside looking in you guys are always recovering or prepping for something else. It creates situation where people who visit are perpetually talking about a content draught.
Do you feel like you guys aren't able to produce enough stuff?
What is GOTY, and why is it Witcher 3: Blood and Wine?
They already said GBWest gets it in the divorce.

Is there a ghost in your house ... which was purchased with your Giant Bomb salary.

Sure but sometimes divorce children are left to starve. I'm asking if that child will be fed.
When we gonna play Overwatch on PS4? I know you got it!

Does Alex have any interest in another American Truck Simulator stream to check out the big patch that just came out completely reworking the map? Racing wheel streams are the best streams.
With Danny, Waypoint, 2 Player Productions and a few other places - game documentaries seem to be on the rise. Would you guys ever have any interest in producing that type of stuff? Drew did great with the Iceland travel video.
Have you considered bolting your chairs to the floor?
