@garwalk: I think that's fair but A. I don't really watch those streams because they are solo and it doesn't appeal to me and B. This video started out by saying that this was a new series "Party of One" and I just wasn't into the idea of a series of solo streams and this is where I heard it was happening so I commented. Also I think this is only like my third comment ever on the site. All that said I enjoy Abby and her Sims videos which is why I got here in the first place, but then I was bummed to see the format change, that's all. Still a fan of the site and it's not a huge deal, I was just hoping to offer my opinion in a non aggressive way. No hate here, just not a fan of this type of content, but if it's like Rorie said and it's just a bonus she's doing in her free time then who am I to complain? It's just not to my taste personally. But it's not Giant Ben it's Giant Bomb so, to each their own. :)
I'm not against the content itself I just find solo streams to be boring. For me personally the fun of Giant Bomb is the interactions of the group. Solo streaming just seems low rent like any old Youtube streamer. Which again is personal taste, but It's just not my cup of tea. Even if everything about this was the same but Vinny or Alex, etc were there to just ask questions and enjoy the fun of the game with you I feel like it would be much more interesting (for me). If something fun or funny happens on a solo stream it's missing the fun of everyone seeing and reacting to it together. Imagine if the Kerbal project Beast had just been Vinny. Would it be fine?.... Sure. Would it be as good as Austin yelling VINNY!!!? not for me at least.
