Dan has a gigabit internet connection now. He said that he pays only $65 a month for it. Meanwhile, I'm paying more than that for 10mbps down, 750kbps up ((((

Extra Life Dan, this year from home, possibly.

I'm actually really enjoying it. It's a gacha game that has some really fun mechanics and despite the 8 billion systems I've had no issues with progression yet. It's kind of everything that I want for a podcast game.

It felt really overwhelming at first because even when Jeff said that the menus are BUSY on UPF(well it looked like it as well). I didn't imagine it would be this much. However, you do get used to it the more you play. It's definitely a perfect podcast game!

Like shit, I'd be so god damn happy even with his old speed lol

Internet providers fucking suck man

 

[Joeku]

Extra Life Dan this year

Fuck off, Dan. I get half his original download speed for a monumental price. I wouldn't even know what to do with a gigabit. Don't most hard drives top out at 24MB/s write speed anyway?

 

[imBask]

Yeah it was incredible you have an awesome city . Got to rep GB while there:



It truly is!


Yes.


Oh god. WTF. Ben kicks ass.



Thanks blitz and yeah looks like gbGAF never changes.

glad you enjoyed our beautiful city. Pretty good weather over the week too

 

[Death Metalist]

It's ok guys, back in my hometown I get 2.5 Mbps lol. Things could always be worse.

Alex wanting a nemesis system in Yakuza makes me feel like he completely misses the point of the series.

Yakuza that is a procedurally generated game would not be the same game. You come to Yakuza because of the crafted melodramatic fun bullshit and crafted dumb sidestories.

the same podcast they are suggesting a Team Fortress as PUBG

like at this point i kinda just dont find myself caring when they say stuff liek this

EDIT: what i'd do for 10 ping on ow god damn

i could see a procedurally generated mr shakedown who changes to how you beat him last or something. but trying to do that to main villains is a no go

But that's a clusterfuck I can get behind though.

Everyone will just use scouts though.

Ben and Nick Robinson are out here being Actual Millenials meanwhile I am going to an office job every day and being mildly depressed.

 

[Antiwhippy]

I mean that is probably the actual millennial experience really.

Or most generations.

being mildly depressed is definitely Millennial culture actually

 

[ryseing]

Looking at my daily medications, this is completely accurate.

You forgot the ADHD tho.

Hmm. I need something to balance out my FFXIV time until Destiny 2 comes out. Are the bonuses of the $60 edition worth the extra $20?

I'd say so. But (I think) you'll have the option to upgrade if you want so I'd suggest going in for the cheapest pack first and seeing if you like it.

Is the option to upgrade the same price? If so I may just do what you suggest.

 

[Spirit of Jazz]

I have the options to upgrade my $60 package to the next tier as an additive cost so I'd assume it's the same.

Hmph. Thanks for the impressions, especially since they didn't end up getting to play it on UPF.

 

[ThreePiMatt]

I saw Dan's tweet on upgrading his internet and I immediately began feeling inadequate. Sadly, my suburban internet options do not approach gigabit speeds without doing business plans, but I just put in an order to upgrade from my flaccid 24mb/s to a much more respectable 150mb/s.

Americans whining about internet speeds.

Meanwhile I'm happy if I get 2MB/s down.

In a post-Fire Pro Wrestling and Gang Beasts world, we may never need wrestling #content again.

And I'm OK with this.

 

[OdysseusVA]

GB should do a splatoon feature/tnt/thingy. Abby, Alex, Dan, Jeff, and Jason(?) are rotating team captains and play with the community against each other. Everyone else can add commentary #ContentCreator

 

[hamchan]

Nah let's just play Dota for 400 hours.

We're getting that too!

is splatoon even fun to watch? i like playing it but its just a lot of me shooting the ground

 

[Antiwhippy]

Pro Splatoon is hella fun to watch. Mostly because they play modes that are more about getting kills.

I dunno about the chuckefucks at Giantbomb who seem to think that fragging out is not part of the game. Salmon run should be fun.

 

[Infinite Justice]

A vehicle of guys chasing down Brad not once but twice was the true highlight in that Murder island stream LOLOLOL

Sure, if they were out to get each other.

What if they play Splatoon and every time you die you have to put a quarter in a gumball machine and if you get a red gumball you have to drink a gallon of paint?

I'd say this would be the shortest feature to ever exist, but then I remembered Eye of the Ryckert.

the respawn times are too quick. the stakes aren't high enough

The invitational they did during E3 is what got me into it.
