So Matt is being Matt?
He's been the weakest member for a long time and no one can tank and LP the way he can.

Sucks that my first post in here has to be negative.
But yeah for some reason or another, Matt has never bothered me before this Yakuza LP. It's just so goddamn clear he doesn't care about the game. I'm not watching the Night in the Woods one so I have no idea if he's any different there.
Still really love the guy but it sucks that he just doesn't seem to have the same enthusiasm about anything channel-related anymore.

It's the classic thing though. Unless Matt is directly closely passionate or interested in what they are doing then he doesn't give a fuck.
Also called Yakuza Zero being not great LP material from day one. Thank the Gods that Altus saved us from a Persona LP.

Eh, I enjoy Matt in Yakuza, but yeah, he's definitley been getting weaker for me over the years and also in the recent parts of the LP. Honestly what's been bothering me most about him is how he reads Yakuza dialogue like he's in NiTW but it doesn't work and it just feels forced. His NiTW reading is so god damn good I kinda think if they ever do a dub of it, they get him to do some voices specifically
Also speaking of the Persona 5 lp, being really really far into it, yeah, I don't think it would be good, but fuck I really wish they atleast finished the first dungeon. I think they're hype would have continued to be super strong in it and it would have been dope to watch.

So it looks like his LP is...Dark Souls! Yeah you read that right.
Only its an items randomized one, with amped up aggression and Gravelord active.
This should prove interesting.

Is been a while since Woolie has had a new game (Pucci and Yoshikage's Woolie Warudo was a remake) but he's finally got new one, and this time he'll have his revenge it seems.

Oh god YES
I love his take on DS1 and I just finished going through his first playthrough for the second or third time.

I dunno, seems neat but I would have liked a DSII lp or something. Been having a bit of a fill on DS1 stuff, though i am curious how random items will change it.
He doesn't really like 2 or 3. No point in watching someone play something they're not into.

I get that, I'm just personally kinda burned out on DS1 footage especially since everyone plays the game so similarly(sword and board) I think DS1 strenght was how the build variety was actually viable compared to the sequels yet everyone always plays the same. Again, personal thing. I tend to stop BB videos the moment I see someone use an axe.
Unless you're Super Best Friends fanssssss hiyooooo!
Them not paying attention and then complaining about why the game didn't explain something when it did. A few times is whatever and even hilarious. being a constant is just annoying.
Audio/video issues, apathy and refusal to engage the game or understand its mechanics. Also Matt joke forcing and repetitiveness.
A boring game, them clearly phoning it in.
On the upside, Matt seems more into today's Yakuza episode. Maybe the start of a new recording session.

Yeah, to be fair, can't show up 100% to every recording and I sure as hell never showed up 100% to any of my jobs. Though, in terms of dark speculation, I always assumed it would be him that leaves SBFP next and then quickly after Woolie. Obviously Pat never leaves, he just enacts his suicide pact.
Nuzlocke run.
If they lose interest in a game the LP suffers greatly. They stop caring and start talking about random bullshit to keep something on air and that's when I check out.
Some LPs recovered from this. FFX had a lull but then it picked up again and now I'm eagerly awating the FFX-2 shit show.
So yeah as long as they sufficiently have interest, like, or hate for a game it can be interesting. If they are apathetic the content suffers.

Im curious what people consider the "bad" LPs?(Note: airquotes because subjectivity) I cant think of any LP i would outright say were terrible, but i can think of mire than a few one offs (Let it die is the one that immediately comes to mind.

I always get the feeling that nowadays he just gets burned out quickly & frequently. Ever since he's picked up/created the "business" end of things, IMO.
Haven't watched all their LP's, as I only tend to watch ones where they have a history with the game, or it's something so bad it makes for top tier LP'ing (Sadness Trilogy).
The only LP I couldn't stomach

Dragon Ron Paul was pretty bad, but then, that game was pretty shit. The only good thing to come out of it was Woolie and Liam wanting to kill children.
I feel like any long turn based RPG LP has a high chance of being boring due to how fucking boring the combat is, especially if it's a JRPG. Most of these games don't have great pacing either, which is how you get Megaman Command Mission.
Dangan rumba is a special kind of bad. It was a bad I never expected from this channel.
The Evil Within. It speaks volumes that the best episode in the entire LP is the one where Pat is on his own and took the time out to learn things about the game.
Other than those I don't think they have that many outright terrible LP's. The Last of Us, Soma and some others are weak or not great.
The RE7 LP is pretty good.

No, just the big three and Ubi.
Pretty good. Blind LP hinders it in places. Isn't as good as their proper RE LP's.

The Way Out EA game just announced looks like most perfect LP game for Matt and Pat.
Basically Co-Op Prison break with actual good gameplay.

I don't know why they even bother devoting so much time and money to their sports games at conferences. They could just have someone waddle out and shout, "IT HAS ROSTER UPDATES, BUY IT YOU FUCKS!" without a mic and it wouldn't notch their sales on those franchises.
New Tablelords is up now...
Trust me, there is an audience out there that the sports coverage matters to. When the BBC covered E3 last year they cared more about Fifa getting a story mode than anything else on the show.
Was last year the year that they had like fucking nothing so they bailed early. Or was it the year before last?

It's going to be nowhere near as racial stereotype filled or stupid as Livin' Da Dream.

Or rebranding. And nothing gives worried fans hope like changing everything they love with a new coat of paint.
In other words, it'll be boring and dull. Dang.
... I guess it is an EA Sports game.
