The cannibalism stuff was way worse than the poop stuff imo, but I'm not bothered much either way.

Spoiler

edit: cool way to top a page

If they talk about poop on the bombcast next week it will be my last bombcast for a month or two. This is disgusting. It's been recurring for weeks and weeks now. They're obviously deliberately making the editorial decision to subject us to this. I'm so fucking sick of it. Jesus Christ. Cut it the fuck out.

You could just skip the emails section if it bothers you. They don't talk about it outside of that.

 

[daydream]

Gonna have to miss the Beast stream for now, but I totally predicted a Velvet Sundown Premium stream out of NY.

 

[Dany]

The title screen for The Crew is hilarious.

 

[Antiwhippy]

Oh god.

Second life with text to voice?

 

[MrTroubleMaker]

What is going on.

 

[Fantastapotamus]

What the fuck am I watching? What is this?

 

[demidar]

I do think Brad being permanent host is a good change. This frees up Jeff to full-time shit on everything and express extreme exasperation at Dan and Brad now has to stay awake and engaged.

 

[Kimaka]

What is this? I want this.

 

[Space Cowboy]

What is this? I want this.

Velvet Sundown. It's a free to play game on Steam!

 

[robotrock]

I am enjoying this

 

[Teddified]

This is great, Vinny is awesome at role-playing.

 

[Antiwhippy]

Ecks Dee.

What do you mean ruin.

It's the best part.

These are all real people.
In fact there are currently 244 people playing right now.

It ruined my immersion in the game's world.

holy shit, there's only one map in dota? that boggles the mind given how popular it is. Does LOL also only have one map?

League has 4 maps, but only 1 of them is used in professional play.

 

[Kimaka]

You shunned the Thong.

 

[Indignate]

3 is better than 1.

 

[Renpatsu]

You shunned the Thong.

Giant Bomb #9 | You shunned the Thong.

 

[robotrock]

You rejected the proposal to adopt the orphan girl

 

[Teddified]

Oh god, the conversation about adopting the child.....I can't it's too funny.

 

[Alo81]

Auuuuggghh The Crews title screen will haunt me forever.

 

[Fantastapotamus]

Giant Bomb #9 | You shunned the Thong.

Giant Bomb #9 | Never adopt an orphaned girl

I don't think that we could ever know God.

Perfect summary by Drew.

I think the variety in MOBA's comes from the different teams and heroes, the map is more like a Basketball or Tennis court hat never changes.

 

[spiritfox]

Oh, what a nice head scarf.

edit: OMG just lost it.

 

[Antiwhippy]

Dolla dolla bill ya'll.

[ultron87]

Just tuned in. So this is like an online murder mystery dinner? Definitely a cool idea, though people taking it seriously seems... unlikely.

I don't even know how you're supposed to play this.

 

[Renpatsu]

I don't even know how you're supposed to play this.

That's because you're supposed to live it.

In the beginning of each game you are assigned one of the 11 readymade characters at random. Each character has their own unique agenda to pursue, as well as a randomized goal to strive for. Fulfilling your objectives might not be as easy as it seems though: as everyone else has their own secrets, some of the people aboard might not be as willing to co-operate as you would like. It is up to you to use your cunning, wits and social skills to get what you want and avoid spilling your own secrets.

Giant Bomb #9 | Perhaps I will gag myself with the panties

 

[demidar]

You don't play Velvet Sundown, Velvet Sundown plays you.

 

[NumberThree]

Velvet Sundown is amazing.

Actually no, Vinny playing Velvet Sundown is amazing.

I think the single map actually helps, honestly. Think about how a football field, soccer field or baseball field are always (more or less) the same.

Yeah. But you could do it like LoL too; introduce a couple of more maps for variety, but only use that one map for more professional play. But more maps doesn't seem like something the community wants at all, so whatever. The variety in a game like Dota lies in the heroes, the items etc.

Anyways, just finished listening to this week's Bradcast. Fucking awesome, best Bombcast in a good while.

 

[bemusedchunk]

Technically, Dota2 has 2 maps if you include Diretide...
