Very professional approach to this stuff by Giant Bomb. It does feel that they’re avoiding using the words “we didn’t know” and instead the procedure is “apologize for everything” and “we should’ve known better” but obviously the GB staff couldn’t have. I kinda understand why GB are taking this approach but also, it just sticks out a bit as unnecessary and a little strange.
I’m in support of this movement but as far as Matt Pascual goes; again, as the crew mentioned, we don’t know the whole story, but where is the line between sexual abuse and just being a crappy partner at times? Cheating in a relationship is not cool but not worth a guy being thrown under the bus.
I know times are hard but the GB production on this could've been better. The stream only started about 5 minutes before the presentation started. Then the stream had to be brought down 2 minutes before the Xbox stream started because of audio sync issues at which point we missed the beginning of the announcement.
I get everyone's doing their best under difficult circumstances but maybe starting live streams like this a little earlier would give a bit more adequate time to solve these technical issues? I also like hearing the gang speculate for a while before streams start too.
I think I would've preferred until they were back in the office to do this. However long that might take, I think it's worth seeing this "the way it's meant to be played".
VR is struggling and I thought that if any company could put the resources (staff and cash) into solving some of its problems and help increase the userbase, it would be Valve and Half Life is obviously a well known IP that would push those possibilities along even farther...
I don’t have much to contribute. I just wanna say thank you for giving me such a great read. This was really fun and informative. Thank you for your time!
Ah i rarely comment and i hate to be that asshole but I live in Japan and I just want to correct the pronounciation:
Doraemon == doh-ra-ay-mon
The charactacter here is basically as well-known, if not more-so, than Hello Kitty. Kitty is basically much more popular internationally but doraemon appears in a lot more commericials here than hello kitty.
Sorry for the rant/“i live in japan so i know better’ asshole comment :(
Great stream. Would love to see more C&C. Not too sure about the replay stuff though. It slows things down quite a bit and I usually watch the VOD of streams (time zone issues with watching live) so I can just skip back when I wanna watch some moment again.
I'm a little afraid this series is taking a bad turn. Vinny is helping way too much and as a result Abby is gradually just relying on him and asking for answers as apposed to figuring it out herself which is what was so great about this series in the first place.
When she just has a checklist of things to do, it takes away from the creepy immersion this game is so good at too :(
