I appreciate that Deadfire has an ending where you can completely skip any of the factional fighting and do the endgame content by your own self. Love it when games have weird third options like that, like how Morrowind will let you complete the main quest by killing Vivec and making a bootleg Wraithguard.

Can't believe Youtube just lets you upload 38 hour long videos like that.

There are 274 episodes of The Beverly Hillbillies totaling about 114 hours of show runtime. Actually you know what, there's roughly two minutes of credits per episode so let's call it 105 hours of actual show. How do you get nearly FORTY hours out of it? Like, even if you want background sleep noise the only person who needs this much is loving Rip van Winkle.

No, it's great, I love when half the rules just say "the DM decides" and then people get mad about what the DM decides and argue about it because they put the onus of making players sometimes fail or lose on the DM instead of just setting DCs the DM could adjust if they were too hard/easy anymore. Love that pathfinder went from being a very structured framework of rules to being mostly "GM Decides" with rules that make no god drat sense anymore because they're spread across a million different pages and nested within each other in the most frustrating ways. Elves aren't immune to sleep anymore, that's cool. It says that on the elf heritage page. Elves are, however, immune to the paralyzing touch of a ghoul. It does not say this on the elf page, it says it on the ghoul page. They are not immune to the paralyzing touch of a ghast. In 1e all spells provoked attacks of opportunity. In 2e only movement and manipulate actions do; so you'd think spells that aren't tagged as manipulate wouldn't provoke, right? Wrong, fucko: all spells with somatic or material components are manipulate actions and they just don't tell you. Also the numbers are just generally bigger for some reason and because paizo thinks the only cool part of tabletop is critting, half the special effects and skills in the game rely on you critting and critting is now so insanely easy and frequent that level 5-9 pathfinder 2e combat feels like level 15-20 pathfinder 1e combat. :argh: I'm mad about stupid nerdshit.

I watched both chunks from last year and yes, you can indeed imagine a different path for the internet involving pre-2000's recappers trading eachother tapes of just rambling about episodes. Yes, there's a potential path where Chapo's Matt Christman could have ended up as someone like this.

The video length is to cover 2 other series that were semi-related to it which is Petticoat Junction and Green Acres and the general reception of it Which is a Lot.

and why would you do this when you could do the same thing with Green Acres instead

Kunster
Dec 24, 2006

The Green Acres section is probably the less bad part of the 3 sitcoms he covers, BHH's cast is insufferable and PJ is mostly like several ads stuck together. You'd think it was like, inner classism as to why you'd probably dislike this show or whatever but no, the Green Acres leads are actually fun and the situation changes a bit other than "Yes the hicks are stupid and dumb and thick and are stuck in the 1900's but the rich people.... are uppity!"

I'm gonna add more to this: You'd think that having a character that has multiple backgrounds would help on this but no, Jethro Bodine despite being a doctor and a spy and so on at some point has somehow less characterization than Blobby or Hugo The Tv Troll.

Again, you could watch so many episodes of the show with that time that you could have at least as educated an opinon on it as the person making the video, and unless the show has some ties to Dan Schneider produced shows or lost Garfield comics, I'd be amazed if Quinton or his dad have anything unique to add to it. Christ, he's made MAULER look like an expert in editing and brevity.

I dunno perhaps the Beverly Hillbillies is just that complex and rich in detail that 38 hours of video discussion is the only way you can break it down.

The most interesting thing you can say about The Beverly Hillbillies is how it got canceled not because of ratings or quality but because of changing demographics. Similar shows also got canned and the event became known as the "Rural Purge."

That's my take on the whole situation as well: Quinton definitely has a problem with making videos that are far longer than their contents require, but this Beverly Hillbillies video feels like a self-knowing bit - a shitpost with an immense amount of effort put into it.

calling it a whole situation is a bit much. dude just produces bad content. it's fine. it's like if i were a youtuber making videos on dragon ball. 38 hours of pure unedited "gohan kicks so much rear end here. wow. let's put his theme on one more time"
