I’d watch paint dry if it was hosted by Vinny
Same. To be honest, I miss Project B.E.A.S.T. and Exquisite Corps, which both felt like weird Vinny ideas. I'm still kinda baffled that GB East has never done some kind of formal video series of Factorio or Satisfactory, and instead it is relegated to random Playdates.
Credit to Dan for being a video series firehose, but after a while it got kinda boring that nearly every series idea of his was "revisit old game from Dan's childhood/teen years that he knows he already loves, and all he does is talk everyone's ear off about how good it is (Metal Gear Solid, Super Mario Sunshine, Mario Party, This is the Run Soul Calibur, GoldenEye 007, PunchOut!!, just to name a few that I can remember offhand)" There are obviously some exceptions to this, and I don't know how much of the credit goes to Dan for stuff like Crime Crew or Sea Beasts which maybe Dan spearheaded, but I still feel like Dan disproportionately revolved his series ideas around his own personal nostalgia. Abby has the Sims and Nancy Drew, Alex has Blue Bombin' and some wrestling games, Vinny does VinnyVania (though many of them are new to him), but mostly their video series ideas always struck me much more as "let's play some new shit and see what happens."
I'd much rather more series where someone from GB East fucks around in some game they're still learning. So sure, I'd watch Vinny play some Dreams. Why not.
