I'm watching Austin's keynote from Different Games and it took all of five minutes for him to incorporate Far Cry 2 into his talk. Good shit.

 

[Death Metalist]

Whaa? Is this after they beat Rondo err?

Yes. An hour or so in.

 

[razgriz417]

Whaa? Is this after they beat Rondo err?

Yup, last 1/3 they go and play max's levels. The crew is def not as good as Jeff and Dan in Mario games but its super entertaining

 

[Dr Duncan Steel]

We getting any Game Tapes, Old Game Show, or Demo Derby anytime soon?

we're just getting more VR?

 

[squadr0n]

Could anyone tell me which part of the Vive Stream they played Budget Cuts on?

 

[Lunar FC]

Could anyone tell me which part of the Vive Stream they played Budget Cuts on?

Part 4 I believe.

Edit: 1:06:00 in.

Thanks, been trying to find it.

 

[Lunar FC]

Ye.

How the fuck did Max beat these levels?

Edit: Oh, he probably didn't upload them huh?

 

[Strax]

Wonder what Content we're getting from Beast team instead of Kerbal tomorrow...

I hope they finish Toonstruck. My fav. Beast content so far.

Why do you hate game changing disruptive paradigm shifts that are outside of the box?

Euhh.. that game was so aggravating not even GBeast could save it.

 

[MassiveNights]

Dan blaming the Europeans for the awful Mania weekend crowd.

That sounds like Dan.

 

[Piston Hyundai]

because they already feel rote

Guys, I got the wind up gun in Enter The Gungeon last night. I didn't think much when I first saw it, then I fired it, then I reloaded it, and it's a fucking Futurama reference.

I love this game so much.

There's an active reload perk from Gears called Cogged up or something

🙏

This game is so good

 

[Sleeping Lesson]

Enter the Gungeon looks so good. Finally something new to scratch my Binding of Isaac itch.

Yeah, the QL really made me want that game.

 

[Sleeping Lesson]

Yeah, the QL really made me want that game.

I do hope (and expect) the guns get more ridiculous and interesting than those in the QL. The game also doesn't seem to have ability stacking the way BoI does, but I can still see myself dumping a lot of time into it.

 

[Volotaire]

Mix up oops.

 

[Zekes!]

I've been playing Gungeon and it definitely is a great game, even if I'm kind of shit at it.

 

[Salty Catfish]

I just nearly ran the gauntlet thanks to the Ghostbusters photon backpack/Deckard's pistol from Blade Runner combination.

I legit can't stop playing it. Send help.

first day of persona 4 rewatch concluded. we watched the first ten episodes, there were 38 people watching at one point which is a new high for synchtube, i think

E3 was pretty up there, I think

I recall an administrator joining to see what the commotion was

 

[Bacon]

I think that was during the keighly awards actually. Unless it happened twice

 

[Volotaire]

Can't wait for E3 this year.

Ah, I missed it. Need to join in next week. Is it gonna be next Sunday?

I think you're right and I think the dude was Polish because he got real excited when the witcher guy was on stage

that's the plan

 

[ArjanN]

I was laughing when Dan immediately picked up on two MGS references in the Quick Look but doubted whether or not they were actual references.

Old Dan wouldn't have doubted it.

It would have been even more obvous if Jeff had beaten the 'Vulcan Raven' boss, but he choked.

 

[SomberOwl]

Looking forward to them maybe checking out the Gears 4 Beta.

 

[petethepanda]

Finally watching UPF, at GG2 Overture. The punch sound effect being used when Sol cracks his neck at the end of the training round is just too amazing to handle. (And the way the red effect around him keeps clipping through the surface of the ground drives me absolutely insane.)

 

[Chuck]

Hope it's Beast that does it.

Stuff like this makes me wish there was a good Futurama game. That PS2 game had its moments (like the time machine that is crank operated, you crank it for 1 minute and it'll send you back in time by a minute) but it was pretty shitty overall.

Enter the Gungeon seems great though.

 

[yami4ct]

I don't like VR content because I can't watch it without getting motion sick after like 10 minutes. .

Hopefully we get some more normal content that's actually watchable to me now that the launches have blown over.

 

[Daheza]

One of the things the crew should look into is using stationary cams in vr games like the one in job simulator and I believe some other games had them as well. I can really see those becoming popular enough that a lot of devs include them.

It'll take awhile though. Most oculus games aren't even optimised for standard viewing yet.

 

[Myggen]

Not sure if this has been posted yet, but if you want to watch Austin`s talk it`s archived here, 21 minutes into this video.

 

[LurkerPrime]

I just want a headless check in every VR coverage moving forward. And also no more shooting galleries, because by the VR gods were they boring.

 

[TheMrPliskin]

Dark Souls 3 is kind of weird due to how much there is that's easy to identify. There's a bunch of stuff that's either just directly from the previous games or very clear links and it's weird to see that considering that the series is normally so obscure.

Yeah, I think Brad made that same point on the Bombcast. Said it felt like a Souls Greatest Hits in that regard IIRC.

References have been a thing in the series, maybe people only now started to actually notice bigger features that are similiar besides the Moonlightblades.
The series took a weird road thanks to Demons getting shafted by Sony originally, so the spiritual sequel game became something entirly different with DS1. DS2 was another different thing since a different director and team tried their own thing which was alright too. Now we're back for the culmination of all things.
Now the similarities are 100 % deliberate, they don't have to be subtle anymore at the end of the trilogy.

 

[LurkerPrime]

Yup. But then Jason said he didn't get that vibe, at which point Brad admitted to looking up all the Souls lore prior to jumping in. So yeah.

Meanwhile, crashy souls is still something wondering about come release. Every GB studio, on all versions of the game, has had those repeatable crashes right?

Yeah, seems like GB has acted as QA on that game for Namco.

 

[No_Style]

Catching up on stuff:

• Project BEAST wrap up video was fun!
• Second half of VinnyVania was better than GB West Mario Maker

Naaaaaaaaah.

I really have no idea what kind of build they are playing, others seem to have different builds that run just fine, or maybe it's still the weird class thing.

 

[Kelas]

They better return to it. I need to see them beat those levels.

I don't even think you need to know the lore honestly, I don't really know it that well and I'm seeing a bunch of things that I'm recognising instantly. References have definitely been in the series before but I think it's just surprising to see them be so overt, thankfully it doesn't feel like pointless fanservice and it actually feels like they're doing it for a story purpose.

As for the technical issues I don't think Brad mentioned any issues did he? Both GBeast and Jason had issues on the PC version but I think console versions have been fine, I've certainly not encountered any issues so far.

They better return to it. I need to see them beat those levels.

Sounds like a Kerbal replacement to me.

Good night friend

 

[No_Style]

Agreed!

I love it because they don't have their Mario mechanics down and they're trying to apply logic onto the chaos of Max's design. The beginning of coocoo nuts is fantastic because there's a nice blend of danger and release with using the shell to clear a path.

It seems to be the effect of trying things live that results in certain failure. With Austin having beaten the game they should have not encounterd any problems of that kind anymore.
And i wonder who is gonna do the DS3 Ql. Maybe it's gonna be a coop quick look between the coasts? Or it's already recorded
