Pat would just rather stream. He doesn't like more structured and edited stuff.

This is basically why SBFP died to begin with. Woolie is the only one who still wanted to do LPs.

Pat is a very...unique individual in his routine. He's in a spot where he can literally make his own schedule and not have to worry about keeping very specific timetables, so I can see why he doesn't wanna do LPs, which require you to be somewhere for X amount of time, so you can have Y episodes that need to be released Z times a week (with editing also being a concern). Streaming makes way more sense for him, he can pick up a random game because he feels like playing it and eventually finish it if he feels like finishing it.

Matt doesn't mind schedules as much but I think him not doing many LPs comes from a different place, he'd just rather release other content by himself. Woolie likes doing LPs so he kinda stuck to it, which was kinda surprising, honestly. I thought he was trying to do a Matt-like switch.

What I find kinda weird with Woolie is that he seems way, way too busy relative to his output- I know a few weeks ago someone suggested that he record and release Astral Chain in big chunks so it didn't turn into a months-long thing, and Billy said that he only had 2 1/2 hours/week available to record, and his schedule was otherwise completely packed. He doesn't stream (as far as I know?), and the Podcast is only half a day, so I'm genuinely puzzled on what he spends most of his working time on unless he has a day job now (which is actually a good idea, because streaming/youtubing for a living seems absurdly stressful and awful).

Well Woolie also tries to run every morning and does boxing. I imagine doing that then chugging 40 gallons of RedBull a day is part of why he's unable to stay up more than 12ish hours without going zombie mode. Combine that with mostly working with people who are used to doing what they want when they want and it's probably super hard to ever get together to record.

Not saying I don't agree, though. Woolie often talks about no time for anything and how he spends so much time on his channel...... yet at the same time sounds like he's usually working on what's going to come out in the next 1-2 days without ever being ahead (blame Japan for some of that, too, though). It's probably a mix of the struggle of working everyone's weird schedule in to his own weird schedule.



I feel like he'd do a lot better if WoolieVs was actually.... Woolie videos with the occasional Woolie + friends stuff. Yet he seems to mostly only do videos with other friends. I remember subscribing to him because I thought he was going to do lots of stuff like the Kirby Lore videos and then maybe some solo LPs here and there.... instead, at this point, it's mostly like he's doing SBF where he replaced Matt and Pat with Minh and Reggie..... both of which I've never enjoyed him being with as much as the former.

Pat and Woolie both have a single T-shirt of their channel logos on the Rooster Teeth store. This mostly saddens me because Woolie's other shirt designs were pretty badass and aren't currently available anywhere.

One Nation, Under God.
I have no idea what Woolie's doing nowadays or how much time he has to devote to videos but in years past it felt like he'd spend way too long thinking about things instead of doing them, and in the event that he'd finally do them but they didn't immediately take off in the precise manner he imagined he'd lose motivation and stop. Like, he was trying to be a full-on Max-style FGC guy for a minute and he was doing okay but once he slipped a little behind his self-imposed schedule he just gave up.

Even the self-deprecating jokes they'd make about Fighterpedia were weird because that show got insane views for what it was and it's hard to imagine what they're disappointed about.

This was basically the entire point of Woolie Will Figure It Out. That's the one thing from post-breakup SBFP that I've really enjoyed. I hope he ends up continuing it at some point.

Early installment weirdness I guess. It's so different than most of what came later with SBFP and what they preferred to do that I guess they just didn't like it as much as the fans did.

Seriously though, it's probably more a scheduling conflict between the two, coupled with pat preferring streaming more than lping nowadays.

Clock Tower 3 is weird in that I hate it and love it at the same time for being dumb.

Unrelated, but with Shenmue 3 so close to release makes me wish the guys had made some videos for the previous games. Wonder if any of them is going to do a video or stream when 3 comes out.

I'm pretty drat sure one of the male character creation voices in Code Vein is Eric, like I heard one of the sample quotes and went wait, no way, then listened to more and it has to be him or a doppelganger.
