Noxville posted:Newsflash: you just posted about it. Yeah, that's what a conversation usually is. And "I'm exhausted by all this coverage of this game and it dominating the thread due to it" is just as valid as all the "I'm so happy about all the coverage of the game and it dominating this thread" which is what's been going on. You'll notice I didn't just say "ugh everyone stop talking about it god" but was actually talking about Giant Bomb dot com. It's a website about video games, you may have heard of it, and they have been covering the Souls games lately. A lot. Like...a lot, dude. E: Also, this is what Damo was talking about when he mentioned the fanatacism. Anyone saying a single negative thing about Souls gets called dumb for saying anything.

By that logic, posting about posting about posting is even dumber poo poo. Also, something even more infuriating is when someone posts to say they dislike how much attention something is getting, and people get all  and say "durr hurr now YOU'RE talking about it!!! how about them apples!!" That is the dumbest poo poo.

You should read my last post that was replying to you, because  if you think I'm some DS's fanboy. It's not that people are mad you don't like a thing, it's that I'm tired of seeing you passive aggressively piss and moan about people talking about a thing you don't like and posting about posting about NOT posting about it. I'd rather have 100 pages of nothing but DS and Dota 2 and Rorie chat over one more of your sad posts. EDIT: Finally found that ryan quote I couldn't place. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mQEOOrgue38 When Jeff is going over the sales pitch for Darrius.

Maybe if someone with a reputation for decent posting said they didn't like all the Dark Souls chat people would listen to them. Can't wait for that to happen someday.Angryhead posted:I need to see this, does anyone have a link? I'll post it here when it gets a youtube upload (it usually takes a little while). For now, have some of Jeff's other fights, from the now-defunct SNST division: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oh7EF2HplqI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7P8ABRQWYAg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M4sZz0NQ1AY

Once again my point was more about the game dominating both the site and the discussion here, but sure, I'm a bad poster and having a dissenting opinion on it makes me passive aggressive. Excuse me all to hell for having the gall to say "Man, I wish they'd have some more variety to break up all this Souls chat." I'll stop with any passive aggression. I'm now with Damo, I hope Dark Souls 2 loving sucks just to piss people off. E: VVV The last 20 or so pages, other than a small derail about the article Patrick had go up, has mainly been Souls chat.

As with anything if there is a conversation going on that doesn't hold much interest, skip over it. Anyway, a posting avalanche on one topic is only really a problem if it drowns out everything else. Which I haven't specifically noticed happening.

You've got Brad working on Demons Souls and Darksouls, and Patrick just finished Darksouls recently. Then Darksouls 2 launches in a month and half. Its beloved franchise since its not another shoot mans game or setpiece action game thats been plaguing consoles for the past few years. Past two souls games were well received and people are hype as poo poo for the next one. Now is time of the dark souuuuuls.

If the slice we played of DKS2 during the beta window is representative of the whole game, it has a fair chance at being the best Souls game. Hope you idiots like the Year of Souls, I'm going to.

flatluigi posted:Oh, here it is already: The best part is Jeff got the pins on all three of them to "reclaim" his title as The Most Hardcore, just like he did in the original SNST match where he earned it the first time. It'd be great if the hype from the developmental stream got Jeff into VGCW proper. I know Bazza doesn't want any more real people, but man, GB giving VGCW a shoutout during TNT all that time ago(as well as multiple shoutouts in other places) has been a huge factor in its popularity, and the chat mostly loves Jeff's CAW. There's always a few "who's this rear end in a top hat?" people in chat, but mostly it's people quoting Jeff based on what's going on, or just saying CAN'T BURST THE GERST

Honestly, Ive forgotten what it felt like to actually be excited for a video game, the last time I had any sort of lasting hype was probably Dark Souls 1.... although I really do want to play Barkley 2. Pretty sure those are the only ones im anticipating this year. All it took was the screenshot of the DATA KNIFE to kill my hope for Titanfall

Ganty posted:Breaking Brad Still isn't up yet. Was it archived on twitch or do they not use twitch anymore ever? Twitch doesn't let you password protect streams any more, so they can no longer use it for Premium content. Vinny said during the stream that they've changed something on their back-end (to provide more redundancy on captures) which means the auto-archiving will take longer from here on.

TheJoker138 posted:E: Also, this is what Damo was talking about when he mentioned the fanatacism. Anyone saying a single negative thing about Souls gets called dumb for saying anything. It's because most people who say negative things about the Souls games do so in really lovely, dismissive ways that's sure to get people the most annoyed, and they will usually try to feign this by including a statement to the fact of "sorry I don't like the things you like", like they're out to prove something. It's the same poo poo over and over again, and no one cares that you don't like these game or that you're sick of hearing about them. Over the past one million pages, everyone who likes and have discussed Dark Souls have also been talking about things that don't work quite so well, and things that maybe worked better in Demon's Souls, and things that maybe will be better in the sequel. This is a common topic of discussion regarding these games, and I have been frank about many things I don't like about Dark Souls that weren't called dumb. This fanaticism you imagine only occurs because it's a really loving dense series of games and there is a lot to say about them. No one is saying they're flawless, they're saying that almost everything in those games happen for very specific reasons, and that's more than what you can say about most games. Basically, if you're sick of reading about Souls, then you better  or  because neither us or Giant Bomb are even close to stopping anytime soon. When the sequel hits it'll get even worse, regardless of whether it's good or bad.

Ya'll a bunch of whiny babies about a game whos turds smell a little bit less than the other videogames released the past few years.
