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.

They "care" about it, but not in the way that having or not having it actually seems to factor into their buying decisions in any meaningful way.

I mean, people talk about the "sure-fire" COD audience, but it's the yearly sport update crowd who really come out no matter what you're throwing in the trough. They might grumble and whinge, but they'll sure as shit buy anything with a fresh roster of rookie players in it.

 

[FlowersisBritish]

In other words, it'll be boring and dull. Dang.
... I guess it is an EA Sports game.

Hey, I want to give EA credit, adding story modes to their sports games does actually make me moderately more interested in them. Not enough to ever buy a sports ball game, but Living Da Dream had some crazy shit in it.

 

[Strimei]

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.

Hm, really? I'm actually quite fond of TEW LP. Its not the strongest by any means but it has some good moments, I felt. One of the ones I've watched more than others. To each their own, though.

And yeah Despair Girls is the worst I feel too.

 

[FlowersisBritish]

And yeah Despair Girls is the worst I feel too.

Tbf, Despair girls had like half a dozen good bits in the LP. Too bad that thing is like what? 50 god damn parts?

 

[aly]

Danganronpa Despair Girls

That was some soul sucking boredom. Double bad with Until Dawn running at the same time.

 

[Strimei]

Tbf, Despair girls had like half a dozen good bits in the LP. Too bad that thing is like what? 50 god damn parts?

I honestly wouldn't know either if there were good bits or how long, as I checked out at episode 1. Partly because of spoilers, admittedly (I really do need to get around to playing 2 at some point), but also because the game just didn't grab me from the get-go. Seems I was right.

 

[Imperfected]

I barely even started the Danganronpa LP. Woolie has this trait where he reflects and amplifies the personality of whoever he's with, and that always made him and Liam as a pair insufferable to me.

 

[NoblesseOblige]

I know Pat is supposed to be the crazy one but my god does Woolie's "just talk" plot hangups reach high levels of absurdity sometimes. Whining several minutes doesn't make for good LP material when it's just him unwilling to suspend disbelief.

 

[Imperfected]

Does Woolie do that when he's with Liam? I figured he wouldn't, because Liam's response would be something along the lines of, "Yeah, whatever, stories are dumb. That's why I never learned how to read" and just continue playing.

It's usually Matt that's the worst about humoring him on screeching-halt tangents.

 

[How About No]

Strange that his other biggest life advice is "Shut the fuck up"

 

[TC McQueen]

The thing is, Woolie wants people to talk when exchanging info would solve the problem, and wants them to shut the fuck up when they aren't exchanging info that would solve the problem.

 

[NoblesseOblige]

A story by Woolie:

Intro Credits.
Actor A: We have a problem.
Actor B: What's the problem?
Actor A explains the problem.
Actor B: Oh, here's the solution.
End credits.

 

[Imperfected]

I'm just not even clear why he thinks talking is going to solve the problems in Night in the Woods.

Mae tries talking. No one wants to listen. Also? They're entirely right not to listen. Stop fucking fronting, Woolie, if Matt started bugging you about how he saw a ghost kidnap a kid and his aunt the small-town cop was ignoring the whole thing, you would get real tired of humoring him after like five minutes.

People don't take you seriously when you talk about ghost kidnappers when no missing persons have been reported and you have no evidence. That's how reality works. Talking to everyone about ghosts accomplishes nothing aside from making you look crazy.

I have recurring thoughts when watching movies or playing games and that thought is "if everyone was nicer to each other this never would have had to happen. why is everyone so meeeaaannnnn"

Funny thing is I think that is more unrealistic then people not taking for dumb reason. People do dumb things, like, all the time. We're are just lucky it doesn't end up with some world ending event it some shit that must be stopped most of the time.

 

[FlowersisBritish]

Kay, but Woolie is super right. If your plot can be completely unraveled by a five minute conversation between two characters than its not a good plot. This is a problem that has recently happened in an anime I am watching where a character, who was told about a trap still falls, into the fucking trap because I don't know? He's dumb except for all the scenes he's proven to be really smart.

This is one of those problems where when you notice it, you never stop noticing it and it drives you nuts. The last time this happened to me was when someone pointed out how many cuts are in comic book fight scenes.

 

[Imperfected]

No, Woolie's not right at all, the problem can not in any way be resolved with any amount of conversation in Night in the Woods.

Spoiler

It's a really fucking dumb game, and that's all I'll say on the topic. Strap in.

Oh sorry, I should clarify, he's exaggerating in the NiTW LP but we all have that one thing that drives us nuts and Woolie has been on the record for years about this being his big thing. You can be annoyed by it but you can't call him inconsistent. But it is def a problem in a lot of stories.

 

[Imperfected]

Yeah, I understand from his position it looks like it could be resolved. He just don't know what he's messin' wit.

 

[NoblesseOblige]

New Tablelords is up now...

What's with the music around 28 minutes ...

 

[Strimei]

So it seems The Evil Within 2 really is a thing.

Think we can expect an LP?

(I still enjoyed the first LP, damn it!)

It'd be a safe (eh, eh?!?) bet.

 

[Xux]

TEW seemed pretty neat. I remember being surprised at them saying they didn't like it 'cause they seemed to enjoy it well enough until the end.

Kinda like with Killer is Dead where their confusion at the ending felt like a weird 180.

 

[Strimei]

It'd be a safe (eh, eh?!?) bet.

Hah. This and Prison Break 2.0 have good chances, I feel.

I'm a bit surprised at how hyped a fair amount of people are in the thread about it, the game overall seemed a bit mediocre, but it had potential.

I liked some of the designs, at least. Particularly the main enemy of the DLC, that spotlight with legs.

 

[NoblesseOblige]

So do I even bother watching a recording of EA's E3 conference?

I'll listen to whoever answers first.

put it on a second screen with giant bomb commentary

 

[Frimaire]

I haven;t seen it, and I have no idea what I'm talking about, but I say no.
Now you have to listen, you said you would.
Edit: fuck

Don't listen to anyother chuckle fuck but this chucklefuck. The EA conference was the best conference I have ever seen. I have one word for you, and I can only hope you are as erect from it as I am:

Spoiler

E-sports. E-sports everywhere....

but no for real it was pretty bad. Find the gameplace stuff for A Way Out, some clips of Battlefront 2 if that's your jam, and a trailer for Battlefield One if that's also your jam. Insert trailer for Need For Speed if you're dumb and like the zoom zooms.

I'd be kinda up for it if it's Pat on his own or Pat with someone other than Matt.

Pat Stares at The Evil Within was the only good part of that LP.

excuse me

Sorry it was my 1st LP of theirs I watched so I have a bit of nostalgia for it, hard crashes and all lol

 

[Fat4all]

Holy shit.

The latest WoolieVs video is amazing.

"Did you find another one?!?"

 

[Fancolors]

Is Woolie trying to justify having a Funko collection by blaming other people or did they actually spend over 100$ for a prank

Crymetina Snapchatted them putting them around so I guess they really did it.

They're all one of what seem to be their favorite characters so It's not just for a prank.

Anyone else gonna watch their e3 stream?

 

[Strimei]

Not me, I watch Giant Bomb's, its a tradition for me, but I'll catch the recording and have it in the background sometime this week, I imagine.

 

[FlowersisBritish]

Anyone else gonna watch their e3 stream?

I will when it comes on. Till then im with senpai.

Oh god their stream set up is atrocious. Like..... A seventh of thr screen is their THREE faces. I guess this is office streaming?

Easy Allies has way more screen devoted to them.

One of Matts under appreciated pluses is how damned knowledgeable he can be.

 

[Imperfected]

A game I literally played on PC this morning being touted as an 'exclusive' release for a console at some indeterminate point in the future.

I'm not sure how much further we can stretch the definition of words in service of these pressers.

 

[Magnet_Man]

THE SUPER DUPER GRAPHIC PACK!!

 

[Imperfected]

Looks like just a standard shader pack like any number of modders have delivered in the past.

"Hey guys! You know what would make a great video? You hiding a bunch of Funkos around my new place."
Uh, yeah, sure Woolie, that'd be funny but I'm not going to waste money on-
"No problem! I already bought a drawer full for the video!"
...

 

[Anung]

That new DBZ game looked so sick!

 

[Fancolors]

According to Liam on Twitch. Woolie found 13, but there is a total of 20 Funko abominations

 

[Fat4all]

CONSOLE LAUNCH EXCLUSIVE FUNKO POPS

What's with the music around 28 minutes ...

It's Flowey's theme from Undertale.
Because Flower Knight.

Christ, Bethesda. If you're only going to reveal one game, book a prime slot during the Sony or Microsoft conferences for it. Don't wave your limp dick around for forty-five minutes first.
