Phantom Blood (Part 1) is weird

I agree! I just started watching it and not that into it to be honest. I hope 2 and 3 are better but I might just not like the style of Jojo.

oh and gideo vames.

It looks good but sometimes less is better .

[jgminto]

I really need some shops of the GB gang over JoJo art, preferably poses.

 

[BearPawB]

oh man....What is life...

Just finished episode 5 of JoJo...which featured:
zombies
sun power
prancing magicians
REO Speedwagon's burning hot abs
Queen elizabeth
Sonic breath bubbles
A person using their hair to fight.


I don't think this is a very good anime (it is more..."saturday morning cartoon" material). But...I don't think I am done watching either. And the promise of tonal shifts has me intrigued.

Now I was talking about pizza.

 

[Hip Hop]

Do you guys know if they will continue to do those daily after E3 streams?

One of my favorite parts of E3 (And the only time I watch a Giantbomb show).

It's gonna suck not having Ryan there, he was the life of it.

I bet they will, as long as those pressers are divided up by time in an acceptable manner. You only need 1 person to be there and 1 person to film with the set up they have for people.

Pretty sure I saw Patrick mention booking guests recently. Either way, it's not going anywhere, it's too popular with both viewers and developers.

Of course they will, it's one of the most popular features of the site. Jeff talked about them locking down a venue for that on one of the more recent Bombcasts.

 

[Mully]

Do you all think they'll even mention the Sony E3 stuff that just, "leaked," on UPF or Scoops?

 

[jgminto]

Wow, Vinny plays games at 60 FOV? That's insane.

 

[Jokab]

They usually don't comment on speculative or rumor stuff, so I doubt it.

[Tan]

I think Vinny plays games at whatever the developer sets as a default.

 

[rybrad]

Wow, Vinny plays games at 60 FOV? That's insane.

Haven't played since early access started but I believe in Sir the slider is setting Vertical FOV rather than Horizontal (which is what most games use in the options). I think it is around 90 degrees horizontal FOV so not as horrendous as it looks at first glance.

 

[Hellsing321]

JoJo quick look was so great. Glad to see they were all coming around to the insanity by the end.

 

[Pelydr]

So "Sir, you are being hunted" is out of early access? Jesus it still seems like a very early beta. It still seems like a year of development away from being a complete game.

 

[Keyser Soze]

Jeff should go all out with his Mixlr in-car stream and make his version of Robert Llewellyn's Carpool. It's a fun show, with great guests.

Stephen Fry Episode
Patrick Stewart Episode
Brian Cox Epsiode
Tim Minchin Episode

All Other Episodes

Vinny can hook up the cameras, and there is enough interesting people people around San Francisco to make this work!

I'm waiting,

 

[Hot Coldman]

That's just the way that game is. It's very sparse, but it definitely looks a lot more complete than it did when I played it back in September.

Also I think one of the devs told me they were interested in TrackIR support at the time. Dunno if it made it in there.

Vinny mentions in the quicklook that it's there but he hasn't tried it.

 

[Hot Coldman]

It's definitely a game that would benefit from you being able to quickly look around like that. If only because of the extreme paranoia that hiding from robotic huntsmen instils in you.

 

[plasmawave]

I've read up to part 4, but I think part 1 of JoJo is the weakest. It's pretty standard stuff compared to what's to come later on.

The quick look gave me strong urges to play the capcom version of the fighting game.

 

[jgminto]

Yeah, Phantom Blood is the weakest, kind of a shame that's what they played the most of. Everything after that is awesome.

Still think there's not enough there, and what's there seems pretty rough. I expected something further along coming out of Early Access.

Crackin' jokes.

Vinny's Consumate DBZ Knowledge Dump.

Yelling the EULA

Horse silliness.

Space shuttle becoming boring after an hour of JoJo.

"Isn't Vegeta green?" - Anime Editor Brad Shoemaker, 2014

What a fraud. Brad, I thought you were for real!

Great QL of Jojo. It makes me want to check the show out rather than play the game, though.

 

[bonercop]

Even though "I WANT TO BE A GANGSTAR" might be my favorite line in the series, I think part 5 is way worse.

Spoiler

guys, this is turning into the jojo thread. w-we have to stop

Part 5 has the Green Day fight so it can't be worse.

I just watched five episodes because of the quick look, been meaning to check it out but haven't gotten around to it.

The first few episodes dragged a bit but it's getting better, the last episode I watched kinda flew by. I'm enjoying it for what it is.

Edit: Kinda want to make my desktop background a screencap of JoJo looking amazed and saying "I can even lift this heavy rock!"

 

[Matt]

Man, even though it would be a big step down in pay, career level, seniority...basically everything, I really want to apply for both of those jobs...

 

[Dares]

So we are pretty sure the on camera job posting is just a formality right?

 

[Cannon Goose]

Haven't played since early access started but I believe in Sir the slider is setting Vertical FOV rather than Horizontal (which is what most games use in the options). I think it is around 90 degrees horizontal FOV so not as horrendous as it looks at first glance.

If this is the case then ~60 would be fine as a vertical FOV.

 

[Pudge]

I'd be shocked if it wasn't.

 

[NumberThree]

Still think there's not enough there, and what's there seems pretty rough. I expected something further along coming out of Early Access.

One thing to note is that the game certainly isn't about fighting (or hiding from) those same basic robots until you've found all 16 pieces, there's a bit more enemy variety. The game's just built so that it will only start bringing in the harder enemies after a while.
