Dr. Buttass posted:Yeah, I like the Grumps, but it's abundantly clear that of the lot of them Barry is the only one capable of holding a coherent conversation while playing a game. It drives me and some of my friends absolutely loving bonkers when they make really obvious mistakes or can't figure out something stupidly simple because they're too busy talking; sometimes we can't even finish their series of a particular game because they're just SO loving BAD. Two Best Friends gets the point on this one because A) they can play while holding a conversation, and B) they usually have at least SOME kind of knowledge to impart about what they're playing. I watched the LP they did for Viewtiful Joe recently, and thought it was okay. There are problems with it: their commentary drowns out the game audio, and don't really show off any of the side content. However, they manage to play the game pretty well. Looking at how it was uploaded, it seems like they played through the whole game in a single sitting. The other problem they have is that their commentary tends to go off-track, away from the game and onto other subjects. I don't really have a problem with it, but I can see how that could be kind of irksome.

I don't think it's available for download, but someone modded Todd Howard into Skyrim.

I was going to link his channel, but it looks like it's been deleted.

In lieu of something that's not internet drama or speed-run related, here a few outside-SA LP recommendations I wanted to make. First one is Mr. Smart Donkey. He primarily plays strategy and RTS games, the main one being Total War: Shogun 2. He's a pretty good player, as he's able to play Shogun 2 on Legendary and makes it look pretty effortless. Apart from his LP videos, he's also done some videos covering the best/ worth units and overviews of different clans, so it worth checking out if you're like me and you're interested in learning how to play Shogun 2. The second one is SorcererDave. He does sort-of in-character' LPs of modded Gamebryo RPGs (Morrowind, Skyrim, New Vegas). The reason why I say 'sort-of in-character' is because he doesn't really narrate as if he's his character, but rather he puts an emphasis on role-playing aspect. He starts out by establishing a backstory and personality for the character he plays, and the mods he uses add survival/needs aspects to the game. I was watching his Skryim LP a while back, and it motivated me to try playing Skryim again.

GoneRampant posted:Regarding JonTron, I couldn't care less about what he says on a livestream with who . I care a hell of a lot more about Destructoid trying to push a narrative that he's a Nazi while using an out-of-context image of him dressing as a Nazi (The entire point of the joke was him doing it then immediately going "OK, this is too far, I can't do this poo poo."), when the author has enough degrading comments about women tied to him you could write a litany longer than the collected works of Tolkien. Are you referring to Jed Whitaker? Bruceski posted:And that it would be picked up by someone who wrote a book series about nationalism/facism/WWII? How dare she!  Are you being sarcastic, or are you referring to something else?Danaru posted:I just want him to realize he's being a dope, say he's being a dope, and go back to being a decent dude Roar posted:This is fairly interesting considering how many people seem to love the "all Jews must die" joke from one of the mario maker Game Grumps episodes. Is it because Dan actually is a Jew or because they're not as incredibly visible as ol' pewds?

He's an alright guy but he's fallen for the Gamergate stuff really hard and he's turning into a jackass about it

Bruceski posted:You've got a bunch of magical purity fanatics with a charismatic leader trying to sieze power, a government that prefers to deny it out of fear of looking bad and hope the villain can be reasoned with, the people most at risk aren't being protected because the violence taps into latent muggle/xenophobia... the books put a lot of analogy in a young adult magical wrapper. Oh, that's right. I forgot that.

Waffleman_ posted:Kinda weird to forget literally the entire plot. I had a long day at work, so my brain is not working so well.  I also thought he was referring to some kind of overall theme within the book (not just with the villains), kind of like how people say that Lord of the Rings is an allegory for WWII.

Tired Moritz posted:maybe you shouldn't say death to all jews. Well, PDP offered me five bucks on Fiverr to post "Death To All Goons" a while ago, but then I figured out he meant he would pay me five bucks in Krona, which equates to about 50¢ in USD, so I told him to piss off.

I thought the contention over VoidBurger had to do with the fact that she said something to Lowtax on Twitter, and he banned (or shadowbanned) her SA account. I heard the same thing happened to PsychedelicEyeball as well.
