The episode sort of leads me to believe Pat doesn't quite understand the concept of spin-offs.

Add me to the "not a huge fan of Liam club", but I just can't like his oddly pointless devil's advocate stance of basically everything, which happens to be dumb optimism just because of how soul crushingly pessimistic Pat is. I don't agree with many of their opinions (such as them not liking One Piece or Pat not liking Etrian Odyssey), but I still enjoy listening to them excitedly talk about whatever, but Liam kind of annoys me even in the LPs themselves, he just doesn't seem as excited/energetic/furious about dumb menial bullshit like the rest are.

Pat is probably my favorite especially when paired off with Matt. I like fighting games and Woolie talks about fighting games so I guess I like Woolie, also he keeps the Podcast on-topic. I don't really like Matt's solo stuff, but I like him in the podcast and in the LPs.

Also, who the gently caress decides to keep unironically watching an anime after they've discerned it's most likely going to have lots of incest? Goddammit Liam.

Pat should totally listen to more of the F Plus and talk more about crazy internet bullshit on the podcast.

Pat needs to make an account so he has people to talk about the F Plus with.

Maybe also so he can get banned for raging about games in the games subforum.

The manga gets even worse. I pretty much stopped reading it, it was funny/cringeworthy for a while but it's clear the author's started to run out of ideas.

Now I want someone on SBF who's watched Watamote to read Masturbation Master Kurosawa for a non-humorous look at a total shitbag character who actually realizes what a horrible person they are and does something about it.

Oh, and Matt, if you want to send Liam to this thread, I think he might find some good series to read. Hell, you might enjoy some, it's mostly non-uguu poo poo, such as I Am A Hero(which rules and has some of the best artwork in a manga ever, maybe a peg below Berserk), Nausicaa, Ressentiment, ONEPUNCH MAN, A Silent Voice, Fortress of the Apocalypse, Teppu, and dozens of others.

edit: read ONEPUNCH MAN, for reals, there's pretty much no other manga with animate-able artwork






Watamote should have just abruptly ended with Tomoko getting professional help for her crippling social anxiety, the best thing it could happen pretty much at any point in the story without any problems.

I second basically all you've said, but that the first thing on that list after ONEPUNCH MAN should be Teppu, which is about Women's MMA and being a huge smug rear end in a top hat, and it's drawn really well too.

Indie Games is great as usual. It's like the best thing to come back to if you ever run out of material.
Also now I'm disappointed you guys aren't doing PT if only because Matt can't complain about the lack of PT Cruisers.

Pretty sure XBLIG is dying so there might not be enough new games by the next time they run out of content.

I kind of wish I didn't watch all of supergreatfriend's XBLIG stuff, because there might have been two or three games in the whole video I hadn't seen before. It was a good call skipping all the games that are basically amiga games but worse though because those are really irredeemable.

I cannot wrap my head around their problem with persona q

It's because it's pretty much Etrian Odyssey: Persona, but I don't think Pat has explained his extreme hate for Etrian Odyssey beyond "I tried one of the games once", he probably doesn't know that the mapping mechanic is entirely optional in the newer games.
It's not that different from Persona 1 or SMT:Strange Journey in the exploration sense, and the battles are just straight-up traditional JRPG battles like in Dragon Quest, but kind of difficult and interesting.
I'm sure they'd all admit that the soundtrack to the games is amazing though.

I think the rest just said they haven't tried Etrian Odyssey and follow Pat's advice?

gently caress, now I want to play Etrian Odyssey 4 again.

The things about the 90's arcade racer on the podcast confuse me, they say stuff about Nicalis in the podcast and about how the game is finished, but the link on the site goes to the Kickstarter page where they say that the game is being delayed because they're redoing the AI and tweaking the controls so it feels good to play, which sounds like what they've been talking about whenever they mention polishing a game before release?

Yo Matt, you guys should watch the anime Parasyte (Kiseijuu in Japanese) this season, it's basically about a dude who has a version of John Carpenter's The Thing replace his arm.

It's based off of a manga people say is really good. It's also Halloween appropriate I guess, it does have some body horror.

My criteria for picking characters in a fighting game can be summed up as "does this girl has a cool outfit? also no execution requirements"

(Rose, Poison, Asuka/Jun, Nina/Anna, Squigly/Peacock, VSion/Aoko)

Also, my Wei Shen wears whatever goofy poo poo I can put my hands on, like a luchador mask or the monk outfit.

Hey Matt, how niche are you guys willing to consider for fighting games for Fisticuffs(or just for normal videos)?

Would you do weird doujin games like the Touhou fighting games?(Immaterial and Missing Power is a legit fascinating fightgame) Bizarre rip-offs like Tattoo Assassins? Regular crazy bullshit like Power Instinct? Or just plain licensed games like the One Piece of Kinnikuman fighting games for things you might not familiar with?

Watching the Woolie vs. Japan finale, I suddenly came to the startling realization that I hadn't noticed the fact that Woolie curses a ton until now.

All those Japanese people in the background must have been constantly wondering why the scary foreigner is loudly cursing all the time.

Pat's a fan of Atlus because of Persona I know that but has he ever said anything about the Etrian Odyssey series?

As far as I know, he said he hates Etrian Odyssey multiple times because he tried one of the games once, and didn't like it.

Hopefully he'll enjoy talking a whole bunch about Etrian Odyssey next episode, since not only is Persona Q out, they announced two new Etrian Odyssey games, in addition to the one that comes out in a few days in Japan.

Each episode would roughly take about 17 minutes, depending on how Pat watches his episodes. And that's being generous, assuming he's not doing something else like watching it on a 2nd monitor.

But he could binge so much faster if he read the manga instead! He might even be capable of reading all of One Piece in 24 hours, if he only takes 1 minute and 52.5 seconds on average per chapter, and never takes a break.

On second thought, maybe doing it in two days is more reasonable.
