Three easy steps to a newer, better Best Friends: 1: Cut the podcast time in like, half, maybe a third. 2: Hire a dedicated editor. 3: Regularly scheduled streams. I think that honestly frees up a RIDICULOUS amount of time, and would be way easier on basically everyone's sanity.

See, yeah, I'm the opposite. I can do streams easy-peasy because I have two monitors and I'm at my computer for most of the day when I'm not at work, but I basically have no time for podcasts that last beyond like, an hour and a half, and the Best Friend Cast pushes four sometimes. I love the dumb tangents, but I think they try to cover way too much drat stuff and it turns into a day-long gauntlet. Shorten or cut The Week, I feel like, since that's where most of the derailing tends to happen and they sometimes only get through like, half of it before they cut for sponsor break. That alone would probably save like an hour depending on the time cut.

Andrast posted:You do know that it's possible to listen to podcasts on a computer right? I have dumb brain problems and focusing on podcasts while at the computer is impossible for me.  Also I'd much rather they shorten the podcasts up than have Matt have to sit out of the podcasts. I think the friendcast is the longest podcast I listen to and its not like "arbitrarily cutting for time" is gonna be a thing, they just have to be more concise about some things, which they already do when one of them realizes theyve gone on too long.

Electric Lady posted:2017 isn't going to magically change anything. It's going to be worse. Things aren't magically bad because of the year. It's loving existence. I feel like "Liam SECRETLY HATES EVERYONE ELSE ON THE CHANNEL" is probably uh, a bit undermining the fact that he did actually admit he's just really bad about dealing with his own anxiety. He even says he's really not happy with the idea that he has to quit the channel. Liam's a good dude, even if he and the others don't always agree I don't necessarily think he's, y'know, harboring any sort of grudge.

For those not watching: They have by pure random chance managed to figure out the Redips = Spider connection like, literally an hour of gameplay before the reveal actually happens. They howl about it for about five minutes.

It's in a really fucky spot that doesn't look like a bonfire spot at all, and at this point you've been kind of trained by how bonfire spots are set up. It's a huge gently caress you if you're just scanning and trying to determine things by level design.

nerdman42 posted:You know, I feel like RE7 doesn't want the audience to feel bad for Eveline, but I super do? She's just a kid who's been hosed over by evil scientists and is too immature and damaged to properly deal with the powers she's been given. I'm not saying she shouldn't be the final boss, because she should, but it'd be great if they toned down her evil laughter and have her act like an actual, albeit hosed up, kid with depth. To be fair, she probably learned the 'evil laughing as coping' bit from the scientists in the first place.

Yeah I'm not gonna lie I soured on the WoolieWatcher gimmick real fast, he's not even really being an entertaining nuisance, he's just kinda like. Bordering on that level of creepily boring and third-wheeling that fans will do when they have no real restraint or ability to realize they're being chodes. I'm honestly with Pat in that this goes a level beyond Stream-sniping that they shouldn't be actively encouraging.

it's a nice fight but arguing about whether or not it's worth doing or whether Woolie should have done it for two whole pages is dumber than any reason people would come up with for or against attacking Priscilla. Just enjoy the LP you goddamn nincompoops.

Eva had an extremely large role in Mecha turning dark and gritty and Gurren Lagann is definitely Gainax's response to poo poo like GaoGaiGar and Getter Robo installments made in the interim. Saying it saved mecha may be a stretch but saying it kind of was the capstone , trying to recapture the spirit of old Super Robot for a while isnt really that big a deal with the rep it has.

Captain Invictus posted:wait are you dissing gaogaigar To address this before we move on from Mecha Discourse, I love GaoGaiGar/FINAL very much and what it does it does super well, but boy oh boy it did not age very well. I love it to pieces but as other people have brought up trying to get through the first fourth where it's still aggressively a monster of the week show and the sheer amount of reused footage hurts it a lot. When I said TTGL was Gainax's answer to GaoGaiGar it was merely saying that TTGL owes a lot of escalation heritage and overall structure to both GaoGaiGar and Getter. (Nakashima even admitted in one interview TTGL's a sort of adaptation of a lot of the motifs and themes from Getter Robo) e: Also the fact that there hasn't been a really good standout super robot show since 2008-2010 probably doesn't help the colorations of Gurren Lagann.

Since I missed the boat on the TEW 2 LP, I'm watching the original LP. I feel like people may have hyped up how much the Best Friends disliked the game. They seem to be enjoying the early parts enough. It's kinda incomprehensible but they don't seem to hate it. I assume that might change later?
