ullerrm posted:Sensible. Some of it may also be the US tax changes and people being careful with their money because it’s not obvious what their standard deduction is going to be; I know I’m much more comfortable doing charity poo poo after April. Yeah, I've only donated $30 so far when I usually end up over $400 by the end of the week. I just gave my "big" donation of $180 to my friend Heather who is going to have her power shut off as soon as it's 33 degrees at night (which is happening later this week). Well, thanks to me she can now pay her power bill and that won't loving happen. That's not tax deductible anyway so who cares? But my donations to the event are going to be quite a bit lower.

humor couch would be pretty easy if you just hired a couple of funny dudes and pay them in beer and food for a few days to say what they think is happening.

Is there an easy way to find the vods for runs Blechy has commented? I need something more fun than this run. Also are there any other commentators out there as good as Blechy?

The people whining about chat are people that are not willing to pony up 5bux to spam pepe at people trying to play video games. Gonna go out on a limb and figure that they're not donating otherwise during the event, and therefore are either children, assholes, tightwads, or genuinely disenfranchised. 3/4 of those have opinions worth dismissing as a matter of course.

Max Wilco posted:It is. I didn't know either, and I asked in another thread. It's supposed to be from Breath of the Wild. Part of it depends on how much you care. GDQs ability to negotiate a budget with a charity org is going to be tied to their amount raised. So $100,000 would probably cause a major shift or possibly kill how GDQ operates  , but I think there's concern that GDQ raising less might cause it to stop growing, or even start shrinking. A lot of this is perception rather than reality: if GDQ raises $1.5 million instead of $2.2, it'll continue to exist for sure. But if they only raise $1.5 million then maybe it gets harder for them to get better sponsors, or they're unable to expand to bigger venues to host more people, since the event is already heavily capped. You or I won't know if this actually happens, but it becomes much more plausibleGDQs main metric is donation total raised, which is great when it goes well since everyone can see it, but that visibility is harmful when times are tough. Would love to see a Product Manager breakdown GDQ because it'd be super interesting (also terrifying)

Studio posted:Part of it depends on how much you care. That is a little worrying. Still, we're only on the first day, so maybe things will pickup. Even if the event did shrink, though, that wouldn't necessarily be the end of the world. It started out as something that was done out of one of the runner's homes, and I don't think it would drop down to that point again

That LBP2 run was so intense the time person didn't even bother to hit the button until like 5 seconds after the dude said "time!". Why'd they do away with that foot pedal again? Seemed like a pretty good solution without having to have some poor shlub be part of the whole "get ready on time" spiel.

I miss the lovely, spammy Twitch chat overreacting to every single thing on screen. Admittedly, I probably have very low standards for humor, but I always found it pretty funny. I also miss the shots of the audience in between runs, because the lovely Twitch chat full of dumb kids would make dumb jokes about everything going on.

I just bought some of the Fangamer merch too. I think that may be the extent of what I do this year unless there is some super good donation incentive coming up.

Your characters die in three hits (1 on the hardest difficulty). So, when you gently caress up, the Prinny you were controlling gets replaced with the next poor bastard in line.

My "favorite" thing about Japanese devs is that they always seem to give characters exactly one voice line that they spam with every single attack.
