Felix has the worst taste in games of anyone I've ever heard who describes themselves as a gamer. He's also god awful at games, and couldn't beat the first boss in a series that he claims to love and won't stop bringing up.

Conversely, Matt who hates games has extremely funny and good takes on them, and describing Gone Home as basically mail theft is extremely funny. He was also the best voice actor of the group in Disco Elysium

Edit: for the record, Virgil saying that Mao Zedong would play Zarya in Overwatch is my favorite gamer take

For real tho does anybody know what's up with Virgil

Felix Bringing up Metal Gear solid all the time then when the time came for them to actually play the game he proved to be so loving awful at it I am legit astounded how bad he was at the game, I bet he never finished the first game in his youth.

He’s taking a sabbatical and will has gone on the record for absolutely everyone in the show saying that they still love him he’s not fired and it’s nobody’s loving business what he’s doing (no snark, that’s pretty much a direct quote)

He probably watched a 45 minute long hbomberguy video and then a 16 hour long rebuttal video about it instead of ever actually playing it tbh

I doubt NBC is clever enough to execute the guerilla marketing strategy you're describing.

I understand that it's personal but it kind of is our business, the patrons of the show literally pay for content from these hosts and one of them has mysteriously disappeared. I personally don't care because he wasn't very good on the podcast but I dislike the implication that everyone who wants to know what happened is an invasive creep.

If Virgil doesn’t want you to know, you ARE being an invasive creep. You pay your patreon to CTH, not any one specific member of the team.

Patreon is not transactional and you're not entitled to personal details on the life of the host because you give them $5 a month. It's not "creepy" to want to know but they absolutely have the right to withhold that information

"I was super good at the game when I played it years ago, but I am sucking farts at it live on camera because I haven't played it since then" is a gaming channel tale as old as time. It's especially rough with a game like MGS that is the only game that controls in the freaky way that it does.

People also tend to really underestimate how newer games train your reflexes in a way that older ones didn't or couldn't, and going backwards is hard

Yeah, I felt like I was watching myself as a teen learning how to play the game. I'm pretty sure I'd be that terrible at it today, despite having played all the other ones that came afterward.

I think this is unfair but I take your point. I just wanted to express that I think it's valid to be concerned about Virgil, and it's not rubbernecking to wonder what happened to him. I concede that the patron money argument is misguided. Everybody can stop falling over themselves to dunk on me now.

correct! matter of fact, who’s been getting data on when they clock in? who authorized this vacation time? we need hr to get to the bottom of this immediately! are they wearing their uniforms when they work? are their appearances up to company standards? will’s beard is not very professional and we should schedule a meeting with him. is his rear end up to company standards when he shows it after company endorsed political candidates lose in elections? our district personnel should use the conference call to address issues of not representing the company very well on social media too.

and now i’d like to introduce our new talking points for the coming fiscal year. let’s hand the meeting over to our Something Awful Customer Care And Compassion Team President
