My only disappointment with this D4 episode is that they didn't take to time to return to David's apartment to have another meal with Kaysen.

Jeanne 3 is the one on the Airplane and you're right that one does own. The last one however has bullshit QTE's and and the worst style of arena for a Platinum game camera. And is preceded by one of the worst Space Harrier style levels Platinum's ever done. They're a lot better in W101, but boy was it terrible in Bayo 1.

I wouldn't mind so much if it weren't just so. loving. LONG. I mean, goddamn, why the gently caress do I have to fight like 3 bosses worth of bad space harrier before the highlight of the entire game?!

Every Platinum Games game has a space harrier segment. Metal Gear Rising's is mercifully short and unobtrusive.

Yea you'll always have a Space Harrier tribute in a Platinum game, the only issue is if it'll be mercifully short or not.

I really love the way time travel is handled in D4 so far. Having time be linear and the whole "mystery" only exist because of David's meddling is super cool. Can't wait to see the next episode and then be crushingly disappointed when Microsoft doesn't fund the next season.

Yeah I would have LOVED to see more extra cases but holy poo poo Pat's loving intense screaming crying about "NO DO THE THING I WANT" was kind of ridiculous in part 3 and 4. Like yes I know the giant man is interesting but it will very obviously progress the overall plot along so we might miss some poo poo so have some loving patience. The most interesting thing in this so far are the characters and they're kind of just glossing over them and that's a bit disappointing.

It wouldn't be so bad if Pat weren't literally having a screaming fit over Liam dilly dallying for even a moment.

Sometimes I wish the boys would just slow down and take it in a little bit more, tho maybe it's just Pat that annoys me with all the rushing. Makes it feel like playing the game is just a mindless job than a hobby he enjoys.

The Bayonetta 2 video was annoying at times because of this. Tho I wouldn't be surprised if I'm in the extreme minority here and previously fans have bitched about not getting maxxx progress in every video update.

This worked by the way. Thank you, friend :)

They're talking poo poo about Pat. As in, like in the Giant Bomb thread, where people like to poo poo on Patrick. If you don't know stuff about Giant Bomb obviously you would not get the joke but I think it still went over people's heads anyway.

Oh. I've said it before but I love SBF Pat, he's my favorite. I just get kind of stressed out for him when I feel like he feels he has to rush real hard all the time (Barkley Gaiden felt like this at times, too. Not that they should have stopped and read all the text but man relax, dawg).

Edit: this is the internet so let me make it clear I'm not talking about the whole channel, everyone in it or declaring war on Canada because of video games, just a few select playthroughs where I went "pat, bro, relax"

That's also sort of the reason I don't like the machinima videos. The longer playthroughs are better than just one-part-highlight-reels because there aren't as many rapid fire jokes being thrown at you. Slower is better even if Pat's always got that restless leg goin on.

Pat hates videogames so much he was having a blast playing Bayo 2 and I can't abide by people liking to play games fast/take options first because they're interesting even if they're gonna make the game end faster, only awful people like me do that. Now shut the gently caress up.

I got what you meant by it just fine and I agree that having a little downtime where nothing super duper exciting or over the top is happening is just fine. It's part of the game so it's worth showing off imo. :shrug:

I'd be surprised if anyone didn't know about Giant Bomb but also listen to SBFC because I feel like Pat brings them up every episode. Not that it's a bad thing, usually just a one-and-done reference and then on to other things. Hell they talked for a bit after PAX about the GB panel which was...something special. If you like SBF then you'd probably also like, at the very least, Giant Bomb's stuff prior to Ryan Davis's death if not also the stuff after Dan Ryckert was hired. The chemistry between Jeff, Vinny, Ryan and Brad is really similar to Matt, Pat, Woolie and Liam, albeit without animechat and with more horrible homeowner stories and tales of sheer incompetence as well as lots of industry inside baseball.

That said, this thread could really do without the pseudopsychoanalysis that the GB thread has. Complaining about certain aspects of the cast or whatever, fine, but it's best if people don't get too deep into analyzing the Best Friends.

One question I have for Matt, since he's reading this thread. People are saying Pat sometimes feels like he's in a rush, do you guys just play stuff until you're done and Pat's just being Pat, or do you have a schedule that you're not really supposed to exceed of how many videos in a given series, or what? In the case of the Barkley playthrough I have to agree with a previous post upthread, I would've liked if they could have slowed down a bit on dialogue windows because almost everything in that game is solid gold. Apologies if this is too much of "how the sausage is made" question.

If it is a game Pat doesn't really have any interest in, then he doesn't really have much interest in it, D4 was one of those. Bayo was just us wanting to get as far as we could in the maximum amount of time.

That's about the short and the long of it.
