The reasons mentioned on the podcast were "we need to do something quick before the next game" and "Woolie played the last game so we should do something with Matt on controls so Woolie can play the next one" with the implication being they're filling time before Dragon Ball Fighters.

I guess, but why a new playthrough, doesn’t Dragon Ball come out like next week? You’ve got two LPs going already, just do some random one offs or something. Bring back mystery box

if woolie's on sticks I can see matt losing interest pretty fast especially with how route b goes

if matt's on sticks woolie is going to be paying less than 0% attention and just start talking about random poo poo constantly like getting up all over again

They definitely need Pat for guidance and hype. The chemistry between Pat and Woolie in the demo was amazing when it was funnelled through what was happening on screen. Matt will just deflate all energy and turn into babby-Matt, and Woolie will be evasive and dismissive if Pat isn't there.

If they need something quick I doubt it's a filler slot for DBFZ, that game is gonna be done in five episodes max.

The first Batman LP wasn't unpopular and doing the second game guarantees them a certain amount of footage and is less effort than picking individual games they both want to play and hoping they make for good videos.

Mystery Box is dead because all their interesting gimmicks are dead, but also because a lot of people straight-up don't click them unless they've been spoiled on what they are.

Watching the last episode of Matt's Apogee series and wow! The original Shadow Warrior might be the most racist game I've ever seen!

I'm enjoying the couple of games in that series of videos that seem to just straight up have Castlevania sound effects.

I'm sure it's just some generic sound library thing but it's breaking my mind.

I cant believe they keep doing Telltale playthroughs when neither they nor seemingly the audience has enjoyed a Telltale game since like TWAU

I actually loved TWD S3 for how it won Matt and Pat over for like all of one or two episodes and then spiralled right down the shitter as TWD games do.

TWD S2 and 3 and David Cage games are kinda similar like that; they're really good at promising, but inevitably don't deliver.

I wonder if Woolie has ever actually watched GT before, because Super 17 is boring as gently caress.

Though, he at least has the decency to not stick around for very long, his arc is 7 episodes long and he's only Super 17 for 2 of them.

GT had all the bad pacing of Z's anime, worse animation in spots, Fanfiction tier villains, and none of the Toriyama charm that actually made Dragon Ball cool and fun and funny.

GT is a show for the kind of person obsessed with Power Levels and strength tiers, which is to say it's a dragon ball show for the kind of people Dragon ball makes fun of and tells to relax and enjoy the ride. It's a series made of missing the point entirely.

yeah I couldn’t care less about the manga so “bad pacing and terrible animation” doesn’t exactly rock my world as a criticism. it’s practically a hallmark of the series. the villains aren’t any dumber than any others, and if they are that honestly only makes it better because crank that poo poo up to 11

Dragon ball is a loving dumb space wrestling cartoon, it’s most entertaining (and funniest) when it doubles down and takes it’s idiot melodrama and muscles seriously. it is at its most lame and Japanese when it’s actually trying to be jokey and meta

more fur, more eyeliner, more jeans, more 90s extreme art design, more flexing, more yelling. Do it

the only part of GT that blows is kid goku and trying to remake dragon ball but in space or whatever

That dude hasn't tried to rewatch GT like ever. That if he ever actually watched it. It's INCREDIBLY boring, and it says a lot that the defense for it is "you guys are dumb and take this poo poo too seriously" coupled with "the visual designs are funny".
