I'm, relatively speaking, an old-timer. This feels like something Jeff G has been trying to describe for years, in terms of doing crazy, random things. People talking about what corporate influence and market-research is behind all this... I mean maybe... but if you were actually listening, this feels like what was in his head for a long time to me. And a recent comment of his about how he would have liked to have been able to go ahead and do this along with old friends suggests to me that they would have primarily continued to provide the gaming-centric content that some people are concerned will be lacking... but is likely coming, as staffing occurs going forward. I feel like no one's been listening... the only surprises in any of this to me are the individuals involved and topics of shows, but as a general approach it's exactly what I've expected.
I will say I think the one thing that could mitigate a certain amount of negativity would be more transparency in the actual process of all these changes. I know you can't stream contract negotiations, but less off-hand comments in streams and maybe more of the thinking... perhaps.
Get well @unastrike! I hear all the quiet, dead pan jokes that sometimes seem so subtle they slide right by, but I hear them, and I laugh. I would like them back when you're up to it.
I forget when it happened but at some point in the GBeast era he got a new, better mic and I've thought this ever since then. It's not distractingly bad for me, but definitely a little boomy on the low end. My permanent PC audio setup is the same hand-wired stereo HiFi amp and speakers someone just gave me 20 years ago and I get really good quality sound from it, but it does mean hearing things I suspect most viewers/listeners don't.
This post is a very weird thing to create an account for on a gaming site forum. Apologies if you are entirely genuine, but I fully expect a planned reply from another new account, linking to some service (ie. it reads like the start of a weird new long-game spam strategy). If I'm wrong, best of luck with your crazy company.
Hey everyone, I really just wanted to say something that I’m enjoying quite a bit, and that is revisiting the dual endurance runs for Deadly Premonition from forever ago. I actually started this a while ago, before the news of Vinny, Alex and Brad’s departures. While Alex wasn’t in them, you do get to experience all four of the original members experiencing the same baffling game in its entirety, and it’s great nostalgia, especially now. And for those that never watched it, man, are you in for a treat.
I didn’t have anything to expand upon for that, just thought that others may enjoy it in this trying time.
I started rewatching it (again... 3rd time I think) just last week. Classic. The show, not the game.
