That's harsh on Idle Thumbs.
I want to believe
hell, even a cleaned up rerelease on current consoles would be nice
Zelda has had crazy legs in terms of mindshare. Gamespot is STILL doing multiple feature stories on Zelda each week, and they wouldn't be doing that if it wasn't bringing in traffic.
Since I finished it and watched the Speedrun I'm getting new suggestions on YouTube on a daily basis. People are still finding new stuff to do. It's great.

Thanks a ton for posting that, it was awesome. I bet being there was an amazing experience! You were right, it has convinced me to make the road trip and go haha.
Jeff is probably having a dam good time right about now.
For some odd reason Idle Thumbs reminded me of Weekend Confirmed and the fact that I haven't heard a thing from Jeff Cannata in ages. I never got into DLC.

DLC is a mixed bag, sometimes Spicer is good but then sometimes he annoys the shit outta me. Also, their tabletop segment is worthless to me. No interest in that.
That stuff was pretty neat in AC2 but it never went anywhere after that and compared to MGS it's obviously not nearly as clever or indepth.
Jeff Cannata was also always kind a mixed bag for me in that he came across pretty charming, but then other times had frustratingly bad opinions.
Weekend Confirmed was great, DLC is okay. I'm sure there's an audience for it, but conversation on DLC always just seems a bit too surface level for me, like they are entering each topic with like 75% knowledge of the subject. That's totally fine, I'm aware not everyone is like people on here and spends too much of their lives absorbing information. But always feeling a couple steps ahead of the conversation can be a bit of a bore.
Tabletop stuff would be fine, but I get most of my info on that from friends who listen to stuff like Dice Tower.
It was the same for me. I tried to listen to a few maybe 1-2 years ago and just found the whole thing uninteresting.
Yakuza: Hostess Edition haha.
It's fun as hell for some reason, maybe I'm more into managment games then I'd like to admit 🤔

Man, remember when Metal Gear games threatened to define a generation's worth of interactivity breakthroughs and amazing storytelling?
Not since 2004.
GB never went in deeper into talking about MGS after V's spoiler-cast and the limited chatter in GOTY, right?
Every bombcast for a long time now has been the perfect bombcast to fall asleep to.

Dan got a shoutout on MBMBaM this week for his taco bell wedding.
Ah...it's probably something about RDR2. Makes sense.

no video podcast today?
It always takes about an hour longer than the audio to go up

That goes up later that the audio archive, usually.
I dunno if that managed link works.

I am!
Also, people got my hopes up with "Just do the yellow ones".
This game does so many things right but then it's infuriating.
On the other hand, my Yakuza play time today was fantastic. Finished chapter two and did a pretty funny side story.

The problem is that it's hard to know how exactly it is to unlock the final missions because everyone played it differently. I happened to have done most of the things the game wanted because I was genuinely enjoying the gameplay and experimenting with shit so when I reached the end, the final missions unlocked like it was nothing lol. Most of the people unlocked it by listening to all the yellow tapes(just press play and stop) & doing all the yellow side ops. I don't know if a cutscene will trigger then or when you return to motherbase after doing all that but something should happen?
Glad you enjoyed it and yes, it was fucking amazing. The only downside was that 2 hours felt like 2 minutes.
Something I just learned: Remember Federation Force, that weird ass non-Metroid game they came out with that had no Samus in it? Apparently Samus is the fucking final boss. And she dies?
That's insane.
That's insane.

obviously RDR2, shouldn't be too hard to find someone in the R* circle, or adjacent to it, talking and can be gifusdifjsd to RDR
Huh. Didn't know I could still get angry at Nintendo's Metroid bullshit, thought all that was left in that well was apathy. But here I am shouting "Oh fuck you" at my monitor.

I feel like I have a very different definition of excruciating.

Very awkward. Pretty standard definition.

Eh, only a little, but I thought it was funny more than anything.
