You think Quest for Glory 2 was best? I think it was 4, no question. They all have a place in my heart though. Even 5.

Kinda looking forward to that new game by the original developers, even if it turns out mediocre.

Both Giant Bomb and Besties put PUBG over Mario which is insane.

If you like playing multiplayer games, then that's great, but boy, it's not for me. I like to think people enjoy PUBG ironically, but no, they seem to enjoy it. Multiplayer games in general are completely terrible for me to watch. I'd rather watch than play, but I'd much rather...do something else. There's a lot of internet out there. Awful Squad + most anything to do with Russ are the Polygon Content I Will Not Watch.

Speaking of, new content with Russ.

I like PUBG but not nearly as much as I hate it. It’s much too stressful for me to take pleasure in though I do recognize it as a Good Game. Awful squad is about as close as I like to get to PUBG

There’s no goddamn way it’s a 10/10 though. That’s bananas

PUBG always felt a lot like streamer-bait to me, but I can definitely see the general appeal. Like Minecraft, it was an old idea in the right place at the right time with a hilariously broken game.

It's their dynamic, I think. I don't know that Justin would have been quite as on-board with Griffin making an orc woman have a Sonic the Hedgehog orgy.

Every now and then I yell at Nick on social media about how he royally hosed up some of the best internet series.

He hasn't blocked me and probably never sees the messages but it makes me feel better.

SusanCrushbone is my (unchangeable) PUBG username so I have kind of been forced to mentally excise Nick from TTS. Maybe that's why it feels less ruined for me than Car Boys? Or because Nick was more of an active participant there?

:sigh: It's probably a bad idea but at least I feel like I can trust that the McElroys really haven't been lovely dudes to women.

I think Travis has talked about when he was younger doing kind of gross stuff like hitting on waitresses, and mentions he's a recovering narcissist. If there was anything bad, I'd say it would most likely be him. Probably nothing too bad though, and likely from before they got famous.

It would be inappropriate for Inzombiac to do anything about that. That would be disrespectful to the victims of the harassment. It's not Inzombiac’s fight.

Do you really think that PMing Nick about what he did to those other people is an OK thing to do? Really? You want people to do that?

Whoa take it easy I was not saying that either.

I'm saying pming Nick is dumb and uncool regardless of the reason. But I assumed he was joking, too, which I seem mistaken about.

Yo real talk I think Nick turned out to be an awful creep but I miss him all the time. Sometimes I pop onto his twitter account and I read the comments and it's probably one of the worst things you can do with the internet.

In more positive news, Ol' Brian and Pat have a team-up on that cardboard poo poo.

That sounds awful. No matter how much you’ll miss it, if the tooth is rotten, you gotta pull it.

I never said I privately messaged him. It's always been public.
It's mostly me lamenting about how he hosed up a lot of great stuff and then my group of friends reminisce.
