Diabetus posted:So here's a disaster of a video. Fantastic update, found it quite humorous with the debate about the pronunciation of Mario Getting two people to play simultaneously would be pretty interesting to watch as well, as others have said

Oh and yes it is entirely possible to gently caress up P1 in 2P SMG by freezing a moving platform he's trying to land on and has aimed in front of, causing it to not move to where it is supposed to move (I hate my sister so much.)

All this talk of 2 player smg is making me really anxious for the 2P SMG split screen hack to just get released already.

I got two videos ready to talk over that'll round out World 3, but I don't think I'll get time to do the talking over them thing and get 'em up before I leave town for a few days on Thursday (PAX East!). I'll try to find relevant Mario things to comment on while I'm up there. In the meantime, quick informal poll. Do you guys prefer the rotating guests deal that I had early on or do you prefer the more consistent thing where beef's in a bunch of consecutive videos, or the old Metroid Prime model with a consistent person and a rotating person (like the consistent beef and random appearance of Blister in the last video but possibly with more sane people also)?

I think it's worked fine both ways, honestly. I'd say shoot for more variation in guests, with slowbeef or without.

In general I prefer consistent commentators as we know the kind of quality to expect. It feels like in many LPs with guest commentators, they have to learn how to talk to eachother and it detracts from the video. Though honestly I haven't had that problem with your rotating commentators so far.

Consistent beef is a great way to diet and a greater way to experience Merry-o.

# ? Mar 19, 2013 18:57 |

Allow no updates without beef. But definitely rotate in a 3rd from time to time, sane or not (Blister ruled).

I like the rotating guests better.

How about you hop off that mod dick and let someone else have a shot Diabetus. Anyway, I like the rapport you two have, adding someone else to the mix can't be bad. That last video was fun to watch, I didn't even realize it was 40 minutes long. I should say though that I miss Dave_O and you drive a dagger through my heart whenever you play a Yoshi level without him.

I was a fan of the Metroid Prime model with one consistent guest and a revolving third spot. Lets you get a number of different perspectives with minimum sacrifice.

You, slowbeef and another guest would be neat, but in the event that slowbeef won't be able to guest in your videos for a while, I wouldn't mind having just betus and guest.

I liked it when you were mixing up the guests more, but all the videos have been fun to watch, so go with your gut or something.

I always love when you and slowbeef are together, but I honestly haven't minded at all whenever you get a new guest to come in and offer a fresh new spin on things. Trying to get Dave_O in as Yoshi was a nice touch if only he wasn't so unreliable. Just do whatever is more allowing to your schedule, if you can get slowbeef in, then great. If not, you can bring some other guy in and it'll be just as fun.

Rotating guests, but switch it to a subtitled LP. Frankly, your voice commentary is ruining my immersion.

Am I the only one who doesn't like Blister and Dave_O? If I wanted crazy non-sequitur commentary I'd watch Raocow's stuff. e: Slowbeef is excellent though. pumpinglemma fucked around with this message at 19:36 on Mar 19, 2013 |

Nah, seriously you and Slowbeef have a good rapport for commentary and bringing in a third guest helps take things in different directions. It's why I like your podcasts.

I prefer the "Prime" style where it's you and beef consistently with rotating guest(s). The rotating guests sans beef is pretty great too though.

I'm voting for slowbeef with rotating guests.
|
# ? Mar 19, 2013 19:25 |

Yeah, the Prime style is probably my favorite - having slowbeef around guarantees quality because of your dynamic with him, and having the rotating guests in addition to that guarantees variety. It's a win-win! Honestly though your LP is pretty great so far regardless of co-commentator setup, so whatever you choose is a good choice.

I'll vote for the Prime style, as well.

If our state gets hit by another super storm and beef can't guest from a refugee camp, chip & ironicus would be cool to have on again.

ritcheyz posted:I'll vote for Slowbeef and a rotating guest. Can I throw in my opinion? Well, I'm the mod, so yes. What I like about rotating guests is that it gets people invested in a new person. I know sometimes people are down on Metroid Prime, but I think the big thing it got right was, you had two guests: - One's a staple that you know you can work with - One's a new person you want to meet Vicas might not be an overnight Internet sensation, but I think it makes you interested in Geop's Dark Souls thread and poo poo like that. NGDBSS may have abandoned his own Metroid Prime thread, but I did watch. Hell, I still remember BroolynBruiser (however you spell it) despite him not doing an LP for awhile I say keep a staple that you know you can work with to have insurance your video will be good and rotate a third guest to give other people a shot.

Waffleman_ posted:Don't forget the third option: Man if we could get Khad involved in some videos, that would be great. I definitely support having you and Slowbeef with a third guest. That was my favorite part from the Prime LP's and its something I would like to see more of.

I really like the Prime model, and think you and Slowbeef are great together. Having a third, rotating guest keeps things fresh and interesting. So that's my vote.

# ? Mar 19, 2013 21:36 |

I think having Slowbeef as a regular and a rotating cast of Blister wearing various false moustaches is the best way to go from here.

My vote's on betus+beef+random guest. Things ought to be even more interesting now that the whole Mario pronunciation dispute has been (temporarily)put to rest.

Pyrovile posted:Permanent Khad and Blister co-commentators. Also without Diabetus, he just records and edits the footage together for Blister and Khad to talk over. For serious, I like the Metroid Prime style: Diabetus, Slowbeef and a rotating third person.

My vote is for rotating guests. Alternatively get one of your Let's...Pals? on with a random guest. Something like Psychedelic Eyeball and Voidburger, or Proton Jon and medibot. Y'know someone from the podcast along with someone new.

I vote for Beetus + Beef + random. I also think that one of the episodes should be a massive clusterfuck with 15 guests at the same time.
