Mary was great in the Quick Look. I didnt get any PR vibes especially at the end when she said that, in a roundabout way, that Evolve isn't great playing with randoms
gotta cover your tracks

So? Jeff, Brad, Vinny, Alex and Dan all seemed to know how to play without her being there.
My only complaint is that it's a bummer neither of the GBEAST guys recorded it on their end as well so we could have a second angle.
To me it is dead simple. I played it for the first time at Gamescom. My team mopped the floor with the monster twice. As the monster I won every game. I had zero issues picking this game up. This game isn#t complex, it's just that most FPS games are really dumb.
My favourite part was when Brad compared it to a MOBA.
Oh, you.
on the quick look
On the Bombcast? He didn't compare Evolve to a MOBA, just said that Dota 2 is a good example of a game where you can do "the same thing" over and over and over again without getting sick of it because of how complex the mechanics are/how many ways you can play a character, which he feared wouldn't be the case with a game like Evolve.
So I'll be able to see more of this?
and this:

Did I imagine it or are we still due another Ryckert podcast?

It seemed like Dan referenced doing another podcast during the Paul Ryckert quick look video, but I'm not sure if that was just misunderstood. I thought the same thing, but not seeing anything about it sense I'm guessing it was misunderstood.
It was a fools bet Myggen, we all knew it. You did this to yourself.

No, according to Twitter they did record another podcast with someone I didn't recognize. I can't find the tweets now, but I swear it's there!
Oh yeah, that movie guy, was it? So maybe it's up to him to publish it.
More Vinny playing difficult platformers, please.
I just want any Vinny-centric feature to happen. More VinnyVania or something, anything!
Thanks for that link. And of course Mary's account name would be something like "hotkoolaid".Shame Steve can't be here to inaugurate the return of Mary
For those commenting on her enthusiasm/PR-ness, watch this but be prepared to feel shitty http://www.gamespot.com/videos/women-surviving-and-thriving-in-games-media-pax-pr/2300-6421102/
I like this one, might be a little mean, though.Giantbomb OT 13 - Mid 90's N64 Nostalgia Effect
ok dude i get it you're some sort of gaming mensa guru.
Most people aren't that and i appreciate that they had Mary on to help make Evolve easier to digest. As someone who has been playing FPSes since i got a hold of the wolf3d shareware floppy, i can safely feel confident about myself and not at all defensive about the possible notion that Evolve might have some nuance to it and that I could stand to pick up some tidbits of information from watching Mary in this quick look.
but i get it, it's dead simple and FPSes these days are some sort of watered down gaming dribble and that i only stand to regress as a human being if I allow something like evolve to get away with possibly being labeled as "kinda complex."
sheesh
Agreed. Something like the brilliant ArmA 3 QL would work fine with the remote setup.Vinny playing coast to coast co-op games (Evolve, Dying Light) is a great substitute for him not being in SF. More of that.
Also, I found this comic about Dan Ryckert and this thread:

Yea but at least i'm being constructive with my criticism of your comments. All you got is "it's less complex than payday!" and "you're salty" and that's just weaksauce brah.Boy are we salty.
Well he does have a point. The monster is basically a late game carry that must farm on creeps (eat small monsters), level up its skills, and avoid confrontation with the enemy team until it is sufficiently farmed.

Hell, I'm not even sure I like evolve but you're not gonna catch me calling it dead simple because I won a match at gamescom or something. Cmon now.
