@axersia: I don't know that "honesty" is the appropriate term to use here. I will say: I found it out of place and wasn't really into it. Anecdotally, the GiantBomb crowd skews a little older and a little more mature (for obvious reasons.) That kind of humor is a little younger and more low brow. It just came off as kind of like high school teen humor (no offense michael, sorry!)
Just think about the number of times the other GiantBomb staff mentioned "titties"; I'm personally having trouble thinking of one. I didn't mind him as a whole; I thought he was pretty informative and fun to listen to, but I thought that bit was off-putting, personally.
Good to have swery back. Always a fan of creators like him that really go for it and are out there. Very much looking forward to what his studio will come up with. Also, glad to see that this move will hopefully be good for Swery's mentality.
I love this! I hope you guys at revisit this. Ideally, I would love a full series, but I know y'all are busy. Some Dan/Brad/Jason monhun every now and then would be awesome. I never played monster hunter, but this was great to watch.
@zaldar: It's a podcast from a localization team called 8-4 play who are based in Japan. They're not exactly affiliated with giantbomb duders perse, but giant bomb just hosts their podcast here.
Love 8-4 play though. Always a pleasure listening to them.
Does anyone know the song they were playing before the stream went live? It went something like, "there's a monster in my closet! I've got the heebie jeebies!"
