I'm not saying the drifting is good (it seems pretty garbage), but clearly if they got the worst rank you can do better. I'm not sure why Liam got so mad at the idea that the level is barely beatable without the mechanic.

This is his "Perfect, you know what I mean?" moment. In the combined light of the adjacent trashfires that are Sonic Unleashed, Omikron and Reboot, he's beginning to see his own reflection.

He's gazing into the woolie hole, and it's gazing also into him.

Never played the game, but it looks like it expects you to make actual racing lines where you go outside-inside-out. Liam would usually start kinda in the middle and not have enough room to finish turning.

Of course, he also fell off the inside sometimes, so maybe the drifting is just not good.

I don't recall him putting up any of his disclaimers when he said a Tommy gun was just a machine gun with a drum magazine and that's just the most recent one. Woolie has a habit of throwing about phony TRU FACS trivia.

It's okay when Pat does it because he's insane and getting poo poo on by the universe is kinda his thing, but Wollie really want's to be the cool guy.

I don't have a lot of sympathy for people who put themselves in the public eye and then complain about the results, but man it has got to suck some serious balls to have a hundred or so people online screaming at you when you say the slightest thing wrong.

That's gotta gently caress with a person eventually, even if they are thick-skinned. Kudos to the guys for dealing with it in a humorous way.

I wanna watch the "future LP" where the Tommy gun thing came up originally. I bet it was him and Pat and they found a Thompson with a straight mag. Woolie was so dejected that they're not all like the cool ones in the movies so he didn't really pay any attention to Pat's explanation.

there are two separate statements there: that he doesn't have much sympathy for people putting themselves out there in the public eye and then complaining about terrible people's comments(a lovely opinion, "suck it up" essentially) and that they handle the awful comments with humor and handle it well(decent opinion but also wrong, see: Matt and what happened in this very thread)

Except it's not really a lot of people doing it, and there were plenty of folks having good discussions either with him or about the games and LPs and stuff, helping with stuff he needed assistance on, that sort of thing. There's some real bad eggs but ignoring them instead of blowing off the entire community would've been better.

edit: well, I think there was some recent LP where some idiots were angrier than usual about how the guys were playing video games INCORRECTLY

That would be true, if humans had perfect control of their emotions and can choose to just not be hurt by things. As it happened, being in this thread made Matt sad so he stopped coming, and if you think leaving was in any way wrong of him, that's laughable.

Yes if he was still here that would be cool, I liked having Matt here, but if people on this thread said lovely things, that's 100% their fault, and no one has to put up with that.

You say that, but I'm pretty sure he still reads the neogaf thread. I can't fathom that being even remotely better.

Edit: Also I meant literally ignoring them. Using the ignore function.

Neogaf seems to be their "community" while Matt exclusively posted in this thread and AFAIK Wooly's only lurked the forums.

The objective facts about each thread don't matter, Matt's subjective experience was that he didn't like being in this thread, and that's all that's relevant as far as whether he should have stuck around. I'm not even saying it's ANYONE's fault necessarily, maybe no one did anything wrong. But it's absolutely not Matt's mistake to leave whatever the case.

It could also be that Matt doesn't like the reddit or neogaf but since those are more central to the community, he feels a bit obligated to pay attention to there as part of his job, whereas SA was more a place where he wanted to unwind and it didn't end up being that.

Lol wow you are bad.

Someone who puts themselves out on YouTube, especially now, knows exactly what kind of a dumpster fire they're crawling into. If someone jams their hand into a bee's nest, I have zero sympathy if they get stung (especially when they get that sweet, sweet YouTube money honey).

I was complimenting the guys for dealing with the stinging bees exceptionally well.

On another note, I wonder how recently these past Omikron videos were recorded, because they really did just do a whole block of it and chuck the videos up as-is. Though really that's incredibly fitting and I love it.

Edit: I think Matt may have gotten a little better with criticism since he's gotten married and whatnot. Maybe he's matured? More comfortable with who he is? More power to him.

Edit 2: took out a part that was meaner than it needed to be
