EVIL Gibson posted:The The Adventure Zone Zone explained what I expected; they were trying to create instantly likable characters at the beginning and it just felt weird. Takko was not Takko at the first arc of the story of the DnD campaign. You saw hints of it with Alla-ka-gently caress-you, but you knew he got there after the train arc and more than a one-bit character in the arc where they are fighting two liches where he walks the astral plane to pull Magnus back.

Idiot Taako was hilarious. His talk with the engineer when they’re boarding the Rockport Limited is great.

Out of everything for Graduation I'm mostly just happy that we have spells again. Some of the best moments in Balance were when Justin would say "I'm gonna cast ______" and having it utterly break the encounter in a fun way. Levitate on the monster in Rockport Express really threw Griffin for a loop on how to make the fight still work. Whenever the DM says "YOU CAN DO THAT?!" is when you get some real fun out of the system. Less of that happened in Amnesty. I'm listening to NADDPOD now, and hearing their DM getting constantly curved by creative spell choices is just great.

It might be like those Christmas Lexus commercials where everyone wondered why they air like people who watch Adult Swim can buy a Lexus as a Xmas present but then it turned out the price tag on them is so much that the ad only has to sell like 12 cars for Lexus to consider it a success. Ziprecruiter probably charges a decent sized finders fee for candidates they hire and I can't imagine even popular podcasts charge much by the standards of an established company's ad campaign. There's also the case that you need to get unemployed and underemployed people to use your service because even though they don't pay you they're really what the recruiters are buying and I bet there are quite a lot of those in their fanbase

Also remember that the person posting ads and stuff is often not a manager, but the assistant of the manager, or some HR peon. The 58 year old ceo isn't posting his own job ads.

I thought about this when I started up Commitment and Amnesty. They were making a lot of character choices real early on. So far I like Amnesty. Travis is much better when he's saving up his jokes for good conversational bits. I had to stifle a pretty hard laugh at work during the "patience" line when Aubrey was meeting The Interpreter.

AlBorlantern Corps posted:If you are trying to make likable characters at the start, Aubrey is... a poor attempt. The absolute best thing about Magnus was he was just absolutely so plain bread mayonnaise to start. He was literally 'fighter with a shield'. There was like a page of backstory that Travis sent Griffin and which Griffin did not talk about until it came up (which I think changed quite a bit too). Also he was good at carpentry and maybe animal handling or something. Aubrey being, like, this quirky, free-spirited wild child or whatever was just so boring, and she never went anywhere from there. Looking forward to seeing what they bring to the next season, in, oh gosh, one day. Clearly the boys should laugh at the people who say 'don't play game with too many rules' and bring out Shadowrun. Then half of every episode can be discussing what dice to roll with what stats. Edit: For real though wouldn't mind a magic cyberpunk game from these guys.

What would the be funniest role to put Clint in for a Shadowrun style game? It's been a little while since I dabbled in Shadowrun, but I thought I remember there being fairly complex mechanics to hacking, and you could have like a guy that'd stay behind in the van, basically traversing the tron-verse in parallel to the rest of the party doing physical infiltration? what I'm saying is Clint as a Decker responsible for infiltrating security for the rest of the party seems like it'd be hilarious.

I've been listening to the live shows lately, just marathoning a bunch of them, and one of the dumbest goofs that really gets me is them saying they're going to edit something out/in and just not doing that Also imo as someone who didn't listen to all of it until it ended, Balance worked so well because it started off like so many pieces of media: you're introduced to these characters you have no reason to care about, endeared them to you, and slowly raised the stakes over time until people actually cared about the characters and their fight against a world-destroying evil.
