Two thoughts about the Friday the 13th QL:
1. Jason, Alex, and Ben are a good QL combo (that we may never get again). I think Ben is a really good new hire.
2. The game looks awesome, and terrible at the same time. I'll probably never play it.

Um my point was actually that Yakuza deals in farce and surrealism WAY more than Uncharted does which makes its over-the-top gameplay less dissonant than it is in Uncharted, which does have humor but mostly wants to convince you that it's a thrilling Hollywood blockbuster.

It's a ton of fun but there are too many bugs. Now it would be ok to me if it was just that but the game doesn't even have host migration nor are the servers stable at the moment so it's very hard to recommend. They'll probably fix most of the problems by the end of this year or early next year.
Does this Mixer PIP mode already work? Sounds like it would be really cool with a game like this.

Why isn't this Early Access?
I can see this game being fun but if it stays broken for so long, I doubt that there will be many people left to play it with
This video is for you
The first couple of minutes don't go much of anywhere but I really agree with everything after that.
Specifically they compare mention Uncharted at ~4:30

Oh my God watching Jon Blow play Zelda, even for the first 15 minutes, is insufferable. I'd love to watch the geniuses who made Zelda pick apart his (also very good) game the way he's doing, just looking for tiny little shit to nitpick for no good reason.
I'm surprised to find out that this is his personality when he's reacting to other games.

They should've delayed it honestly. I haven't been able to play a single quick match on X1, only private matches with friends. It's really fun, I want them to continue to work on it because they got something unique and fresh within the MP market and it pays respect to the films in a way most licensed games don't.
I don't play alot of multiplayer games. No game this generation so far has hooked me like Quake, Counter Strike, Halo 2, TF2, COD4 & Gears of War. The only game that came close was Rainbow Six: Siege and if it weren't for the abundance of great games we've been getting, I would've played more. The developers are also still supporting the game which is fucking great.

It's not that surprising if you've heard him speak about AAA games before, but just how incredibly insufferable and whiny he was being was kind of crazy. He was going out of his way to basically play the game wrong and find things to bitch about. It felt like he was playing it just so he could say "I played it and it's bad and here's why" probably while leaving out the part that he didn't even get out of the tutorial area.

Seriously I skipped ahead to him doing a shrine and he seems like a whiny jackass, like the one obnoxious kid at school no one ever wants to be around.
Screw this guy. Honestly makes me want to avoid games he makes in the future.

If you like Zelda, do yourself a favor and don't watch it. The most maddening thing I've seen in a while. I just had to quit watching.

The stream was great.

What I really want is a David Cage stream.
He should start streaming Dark Souls or something.

Danny's second FFXIV doc is up. Watching the progression makes me wish I had stuck around for the first year as opposed to straight dropping it after just a few short weeks. Being there for the approach of Dalamud and the eventual destruction of 1.0 would have been awesome. I'm glad they did do the work they did on the original game to make ARR a reality.

the holder of the trombone
60 euros for ARMS sounds real rough. Oof.
I support this.
That would just result in bans and people getting being shitty toward Blow
10 minutes in and he's yet to select a user. This is the best kind of nightmare.
Edit: Oh god the screen. It's like he's got his own kind of jank webcam with that reflection.

Lol did they just stare at a Yakuza skill that has heat level three highlighted circle and literally says on level 3 heat in the description and said "oh so you don't need heat for this"?

well at least Dan can admit that he's bad at the game lol.
would still love to see Vinny or Alex play tho

I want to make the Blow of the Wild thread, but I'm not sure what to say in the OP and title.
Isn't it Mr. and Mrs. Ryckert? The "Dan" sounded weird to me, too.
I mean, the reason it's not is because Yakuza has a weird as tone. The contrast between the super serious story and the dumb stuff you do outside of it is on purpose and the ridiculous aspects are totally self aware.
The ultra violence aspect of it combined with the "no killing" story could be ludonarratige dissonance if the game wasn't totally aware of it and played with it.
It's a ridiculous game but the devs know exactly what they are doing and that's why it works.
Yeah, avoid the work of one of the best game designers around because he loves to nitpick. Makes sense...
gotta make that clickbait title tho.

I need to hurry up and finish the game!
It's Persona. There's always a best girl and yours is always the wrong one.
I just hope there is lots of dunking on Akechi.

I really need to accelerate my Persona 5 playtime to listen to the spoilercast.
