look at this shit, and this is kind of a mild playthrough of this mission

 

[alr1ght]

I don't understand how one can not like Vanquish. It's pretty much the ultimate videogame.

When rorie isn't there no one listens to the chat lol

The only time they should be listened to is when they are being asked for terrible steam games for them to play.

 

[imBask]

oh Brad talks to Austin on discord all day, that's what he does!

That is correct.

I feel like this is Brad's reaction during most of that game.

I am very much looking forward to that review.

 

[Antiwhippy]

Also using a chat style for reviews is a very "in" thing nowadays.

 

[Tubobutts]

oh Brad talks to Austin on discord all day, that's what he does!

Brad doesn't use discord.

At least I hope he doesn't.

 

[Infinite Justice]

So a 2 or 3 from Bradley here?

 

[imBask]

MSN Messenger then?

 

[Twin Tails]

So a 2 or 3 from Bradley here?

His love for mass effect is strong. 3 is likely.

 

[Xater]

So a 2 or 3 from Bradley here?

I'm still on boat safe 3, but I hope for 2.

Mass Effect: Andromeda review: A Radio Drama.

 

[Antiwhippy]

I dunno man, he sounds like he fucking hated it in the last bombcast.

 

[Twin Tails]

At least I hope he doesn't.

He knows who talks about him over there.

 

[robotrock]

2 star review for ME:A incoming.

I think Brad once said that a 3 star review was "this game is fine or OK"

but he was definitely harsher towards it in the bomb cast.

 

[Teddified]

I'd say 2 stars, but ya never know.

 

[imBask]

would you play 70h+ of a 2/5 game though?

 

[Ashby]

I bet Brad is low-key hilarious on IM

 

[TiffanyTryhard]

Someone in the Nier stream chat said to Brad "I'm guessing you'll give it a 3," and he replied "I admire your optimism."

 

[Teddified]

would you play 70h+ of a 2/5 game though?

I mean brad loves Mass Effect and just really wanted to know and experience the game. I bet he would even if he didn't need to review. Maybe he'd mainline it faster. At some point Brad just needed to know.

 

[Antiwhippy]

would you play 70h+ of a 2/5 game though?

It sounds like he played that long out of desperation searching for any trace of the ME that he loved.

Kind of tragic really.

 

[LowRoller]

So a 2 or 3 from Bradley here?

The way they talked about it, i think it'll be 2

 

[Glitchesarecool]

This is Brad we're talking about.

 

[pizzacat]

This is Brad we're talking about.

what is does drivel

 

[Antiwhippy]

I mean jeff played 100+ hours of the old republic.

They're no strangers to this.

 

[imBask]

This is Brad we're talking about.

well I mean.... I know he probably spent the first 20h tweeking random options in the main menu but still

 

[Mr. F]

The series finale of Review (on Comedy Central) is on tonight and I don't know how to cope with it. It was such a brilliant show, I hope the ending is satisfying.

Can't. Wait.

[Piston Hyundai]

Giant Bomb doing reviews continues to be weird. I can't imagine it'll get a lot of traffic beyond the core GB audience since the consensus has been formed already, and the core GB audience doesn't need a review to know what Brad thinks.

 

[BearPawB]

I think they all come from a review background and like writing them *shrug*

 

[ThanksVision]

it will get traffic when brad drops the 1/5 star hammer O_O

 

[Megasoum]

I don't know what to think about Persona 5....

I'm not really a JRPG fan, played a couple over the years but never finished (the closest I got is playing maybe 80% of the story in FFX, Chrono Trigger and Mario RPG)...

I never played any Persona games (or watched the P4 ER) so I have zero attachment to the universe.

But at the same time people are raving about the game and it does look good.

 

[Antiwhippy]

If they want to get traffic from that they should drop the 1/5 star hammer on P5.

Whether it's traffic they want is another thing entirely.

 

[Keyser Soze]

TFW Beastcast image confuses you...

 

[Antiwhippy]

MGR spoilercast?

 

[KingKong]

Riding on animals is very useful once you get that sachet that just lets you jump on them without bait.

and when you do the quest that spawns them right near the save points

Do you like visual novels? That's the main appeal of the P3 and P4 games, not really the RPG stuff.

 

[Macho Madness]

Hotel Dusk was good.

Not really so yeah...

 

[Ashby]

Hotel Dusk was good.

So good.

 

[Zornack]

If you dislike visual novels and JRPGs then you probably won't like a Persona game.

I just saw you write Nier off because of one GB livestream and now you're trying to tell me you don't know what to think of Persona 5 because of a Giant Bomb video that was positive about it

 

[Data West]

They're no strangers to this.

SWTOR is much better than Mass Effect 3 and Andromeda

Imperial Agent is Thieves Guild tier

 

[Antiwhippy]

If ypu like world mythology and teenage problems you'll probably like persona.

 

[Moaradin]

The Imperial Agent storyline is seriously legit. It's still the best written story in a Bioware game since Mass Effect 1.

 

[Hindl]

Well just accidentally fell into the fight with Ganon to end BotW. Was exploring and wandered into the main room. Final boss was pretty good, and then that last part was

Spoiler

really easy and fanservicy fighting pig ganon

but I liked it. IT was kinda easy but eh. Ironically I wandered in looking for the

Spoiler

Hylian Shield

but oh well. Man, that is a hell of a game. Might go back and explore more but goddamn

GBW Playdate: NieR: Automata

However you pronounce it, this game's got flashy combat and rideable moose. We're sold.

Hell yeah, they're QL'ing Snake Pass. Enjoyed what I played of it so far and David Wise is just *italian chef kiss*

Prediction: Brad will save ME:A from Most Disappointing during GOTY.
