I'd be a little surprised but if it's true, I'd be super happy. Dan's great and he meshes with the crew really well. Also I wouldn't complain about more wrestling content.

I would assume they'd do the commentary from the location they'll be doing the night shows from. Jeff said that those after-hours things are what he finds most fulfilling anyway.
Whatchu talkin' about. He was praising it and then said "It's just probably not for me because my life doesn't have situations where I can play like that these days"
Yep, that's exactly what he said. He enjoyed the game.
I'm not one to disagree with the sentiment entirely, but that's just wrong. He obviously was very positive on Evolve and had a lot of good things to say about it. But he also realizes that he's not in a situation where he would be able to play the game because of its inherent nature.
vinny is the magic spice that dinosaur game needed
I don't even understand what that means. It's not a local multiplayer game or anything.
He explains why on the podcast. Not everyone has a group of friends who will always be at their disposal when they'll want to play a game of Evolve.
It seems a game geared for people knowing what they're doing and/or friends. Playing with randoms with such a small player count probably doesn't seem appealing to him.
it's okay, you have a dinosaur that shoots rainbows so you're cool

Great that they are doing commentary. Best idea they had last year. Not going to be how I watch live but definitely will be my source for a rewatch
Also even if he isnt the hire I want to hear Dan Ryckerts tales of trying to find a place to live in SF with all the stuff the GB guys have talked about how its a nightmare in that town right now for renters.

You realize Dan already posted in the GB thread tonight and that's not his username right?
Yes.
You make it sound like he literally couldn't play it if he wanted to. That doesn't seem like a reason someone would not play a game they were really excited about.
So they're not going to the conferences this year and just going to do a live stream like Gamescom? Did they announce that during UPF?
That's a big change but I guess I prefer it. Not like actually going to the presser is any better (well unless Ms gives out Xbox ones or something).

Time to watch some old Electronic 3 videos.

Playing with 3 randoms in a class mechanic heavy game sounds like a nightmare (and it is)
I'm totally with him on it
Jeff's opinion is that it's a really cool game that it will probably be a ton of fun with friends and kind of a mess with strangers.
Did you guys even listen to the podcast?
You virtually just described the most popular genre in video games right now. Plenty of people play LoL and Dota without full stacks, and I'd be willing to bet evolve isn't half as complicated as those games.
You're straying from the point, which was that Jeff doesn't think it'll be that fun without friends.
I mean you can disagree all you want but that's not gonna make Jeff theoretically play Evolve more so ¯\_(ツ
_/¯yes he said it was like a new left 4 dead therefor he don't want it.
which makes no sense because his thing with left 4 dead was waaaaa zombies are dumb.

Well seeing as you have a DOTA 2 avatar, and that I use to play LOL and DOTA 2, I remember being quite frustrated when people didn't play their character correctly. Sure there are multiple ways to play characters in those game (not so much in LOL), but I would be pissed when somebody would not play their class/character correctly. This is a big reason I stopped playing MOBA's as I would be angry all the time. I finally realized that playing MOBA's caused way to much stress and anger and just quit playing them. Relying on random players is not fun and especially not fun when you have to at least wait 20 min to surrender in LOL (if the team even agrees). DOTA 2 was far worse when I played as there were no surrenders.
This is probably the same thing that happens to Jeff, I feel his sentiment as I usually lone-wolf it now or may have one or two friends play with me at a time. Very Very rarely do I ever have 4 friends playing the same game.
He said that it looked cool but he would never play it because it was a co-op game.
thanks jack
Worth a watch?
Their hearts didn't seem in it this week, they spent the day packing up for E3 and getting everything else squared away. There's some Drew ARMA weirdness towards the end, but there's been better.
