I would double the price of premium and only make Metal Gear Solid videos, if I ran the site.

nah, they kept the price and halved the amount of MGS videos.

Spoiler

the last 2 weeks of content were great!

 

[bigwinnerx]

But, I would pay them double to keep the MGS videos off the site....Hmm.

I was laughing at his expressing when I watched it live. Drew said they were good, then he tested it lol. I guess he doesn't like them.

Have they said when they expect to do the next installment of D&D? I know Rorie said he was going out of town this week so it may be a while.

 

[Chizzanger]

Someone here asked to change the Puyopuyo GB art into avatars, so I just made them transparent using my shitty photoshop skills.

I also happened to notice some Japanese text hidden within the white background on some of the original art. I know some of you can read Japanese so get on that too.

Thanks!

This is pretty awesome!

That's kind of a problem with them doing D&D IMO, you basically have to have fairly epic session to actually get anywhere.

I can't believe Dans Of The Patriots hasn't started yet. I'm canceling my sub.

At least give us a Fission Mailedbag to tide us over.

“If you’re looking to kill some zombies, this game is available.”

how could anybody not love Rorie?

Rorie is like the background extra in a sitcom that has the occasional spoken lines and an inferred personality and background accumulated from dozens of episodes. The writers and producers are aware of his cult following but are hesitant in making him a permanent cast member in fear of making him the next Poochie.

So they introduce Dan instead.

Is the Subnautica Unfinished worth watching? Because I crave for more Vinny

Starts a little slow, but gets really good

How long till somebody makes a "Cops cops cops cops cops cops cops cops -Jeff" tumbler picture...thingy for Hardline. You know it'll happen. Hell, I would do it if I had anything more advanced then MS Paint.

Wow. This is pretty random but I was watching one of those awful American Pie sequels (the reunion one) and never knew Chris Klein's character is called Chris "Oz" Ostreicher. Spelled Os rather than Oes - like Jason - which I thought might be to fit the character having the nickname "Oz", but then he pronounces it "Awe-striker" rather than "A-striker", so I dunno.

O and Ö (originally oe) are two different vowels.

Listen.

 

[Rapstah]

Ö (originally oe)

There's a different story behind that letter for each language that uses it and it's not this simple.

 

[mnz]

Probably just the anglicisation of the letter Ö to "Oe" (how it's done in German, if no ö is available) or just "O". Should be the same origin, meaning "Austrian person".

 

[Tamanon]

Jason A. Striker sounds like an EGM editor name.

 

[daydream]

There's a different story behind that letter for each language that uses it and it's not this simple.

The name's German in origin so that's what I was talking about, obviously. In Middle High German, œ was a long vowel, ö is its modern equivalent.

Currently screencapping the unlockable teriyaki chicken recipe from #IDARB so that I can make it tonight.

Hah, that's pretty great. That QL had a lot of good quotes.

"Hey, what's up guys? We're all cops! We're doing cop stuff! What's up guys, let's talk about our pension!"

I remember TNT being bad more often than good.

When everyone here complains about no Metal Gear Scanlon, I gave Tested $5...

• LEGO With Friends Builds (5 Episodes)
• LEGO Star Wars Build (8 Episodes)
• LED Hypnocube Build (9 Episodes)
• LEGO Sandcrawlers Build (12 Episodes)
• Quadcopter Drone Build (5 Episodes)
• Japanese Papercraft Build (7 Episodes)

That seems worth it!

Hey Brad,

You should check out Jonathan Blow playing Infinifactory on Twitch.

Not only does it shows you how crazy the later levels get but you get to see the game played from a genius programmer point of view which is kinda cool.

He always starts by solving the puzzles and then goes on to try to optimize them to reduce the footprint and cycle time to the lowest numbers possible.

It's amazing to watch.

holy shit what a difference to the QL (no offence Brad)

:lol


You can see it's a game made by the same guy who did Spacechem.

He'll get top billing in the final season after Brad leaves and they need to fluff up the intro.

finally got around watching Besiege.

10 mins through the video and bought it on Steam

nah in the final season Patrick will have come back from being a journalist and he'll rejoin the crew lamenting brads leave

I'd trade MGS for more Demo Derby in a freakin' heartbeat.

Forget Demo Derby, I want more Paul. I just finished watching Paul and Dan playing through the three games.

vinnyvania >> demo derby

Demo derby is easily the worst premium feature.

No, that would be UPF.

And this is why catering to fans and maintaining your fanbase is hard work.

[Volotaire]

And this is why catering to fans and maintaining your fanbase is hard work.

I was being mostly sarcastic (Demo Derby is great!), but I fully understand how it's hard for GB to cater to the older fans who want streams and more of the newer fans who want more endurance runs/MGS Scanlon/more Dan content. I'm also probably wrong presuming it's older fans and newer fans who want this type of content. Then there are fans who want content with specific content, games and podcasts. It's impressive how GB has balanced it out in the past few months.

Don't mind a big gap between MGScanlon's. I feel like it frustrates Drew to play these games , so having a gap makes him forget how horrible to play they are. :d

Mhm, MGS1 and MGS2 are the roughest looking at a control standpoint. MGS3 and MGS4 are better, thankfully. MGS3 really nailed it in terms of control, and MGS4 is kinda Gears of Wars-y. I don't mind the wait. As Drews beard grows, so does his innate power.

But there's a lot more annoying mechanics in MGS3. Camo sucks and hunting can be annoying at times.

You mean the precursor to survival games?

Drews gonna love it. I mean, atleast I think he likes those sort of games. Like Arma. And Dayz. Or something.

I wonder if they'll go with the fully controllable camera of Subsistence or the fixed camera from vanilla MGS3?

I would imagine they're going to go with a fully controllable camera. It's way superior to the fixed camea.

I agree. You never know though with Dan's obsession to give Drew the purest MGS experience.

I think I remember Dan saying in this thread that they're gonna play with a controllable camera (but can't find the quote).
