Kessler? Let's see how he measures up. 
 
EDIT: Not bad. I'm not much of a fan of how hyper-traditional Dragon Quest seems (also, the Dragon Ball art style kind of throws me off) , but Matt's informative, and I appreciate the enthusiasm.  
 
*thumbs up*

Dragon Quest, Brad, and Matt Kessler. This is how you start a Sunday morning off.

TOO QUIET

How many times can one re-iterate that 'This is Dragonquest' in the first two minutes?

I'd rather not have you on the comments.

Kessler's very enthusiastic.

Well at least Matt has more constructive and informative things to say in this video than Brad did in the last two months

HAHA YEAH FUCK KESSLER I HATE HIM SERIOUSLY YOU GUYS HOW MUCH DO I HAVE TO KISS UP TO YOU TO LET ME TOUCH YOUR SILKY SKIN
 
Kessler is a smart guy and can be pretty funny. He hasn't even done much yet. Drew didn't get any of this when he was an intern, so just give it a rest. Really, there's no way that you could actually dislike him as much as you all claim. I'm not even really a fan of him, but it's just boisterous for you all to be saying it. 
 
Nicholson, on the other hand . . .

I still think of Kessler from InFamous.

I'm sorry...
 
But Matt is really annoying!
MethodManFTWon July 11, 2010 at 9:14 a.m.
I hate everything about Kessler, but next time... I will be ready. 
 
This Matt guy is ok tho.

No idea what people are talking about, Matt's is fine in this quick look. I like the enthusiasm he brings.
punkxblazeon July 11, 2010 at 9:16 a.m.
Matt seems to loosen up as the quick look goes on, that's good. He needs to not try so hard with his vocal patterns, though. Begins to sound like a higher pitched Ryan Davis imitator.
Fallen189on July 11, 2010 at 9:16 a.m.
The guy's voice is unbearable, and his constant pandering to giantbomb memes is awful.

Sorry to derail this Matt Quick Look with talk of Dragon Quest, but Dragon Quest looks neat.
adoggzon July 11, 2010 at 9:17 a.m.
Kesslers are for jerks
 
I like how Kessler didn't heal the healer even though she needed to be healed and then tries to throw away her corpse even though her death was all his fault.
