They should be embarrassed by the quality of the GOTY content. It’s poorly made and uninteresting (is anyone really going to watch 2.5 hours of Jeff rating faves?). An explanation from the guys would be much appreciated. This weighs heavily on whether I’ll resub this year.

I don't think we need (or are owed) an explanation, that's just awkward and way too direct. I'm just going to assume this year is kind of an anomaly, potentially because of personal stuff, and hope for the best next year. Otherwise I'll probably unsub.

Edit: I liked GB Feud for the most part.

Yes please. I don't see a reason to have it that isn't malicious.

Autoplay should be off on every site by default

Don't like it. They got rid of the colors and nice shading that gave the buttons and stuff depth and a 3D quality.

They could change just a couple things and it'd be great. I'm also having trouble finding the videos I want =\

I'm so torn. It's a bit of an event, and the game looks incredible. But I have a base PS4. I don't want the experience to suffer because of that. But I also don't want the story spoiled and that might be impossible to avoid for long.

I jumped into this from 144hz PC gaming, and it's pretty bad even on a PS4 Pro. I can't deal with 30 FPS anymore, so console games this big probably just aren't for me. I'd say wait for the PC release.

Good first impression, but can we keep some of the depth and color from current GB please? :)

For example,

-Not enough red. 'Play' button should be red and have shading for depth. The drop-down menus at the top should highlight red when hovering over them. Actually... just take the look of the current drop down and put it up there.

-Just keep the old 'Coming up on Giant Bomb' section with the nice backgrounds, yellow premium label, and attractive depth with the vignetting... but make it smaller so it fits.

-The carousels are a good idea and would look better if they were like the three featured tiles under the main feature on the current site - and had that 3D depth element to their partitioning. Like this: https://i.lensdump.com/i/ARFSXb.png

-Give us the old rounded font. Arial is so boring that it's the default font in Microsoft Outlook.

Flat, minimalistic designs have become iterative and pervasive, but sites are slowly bucking the trend. I'd hate for GB to look outdated soon.

Something on GBW streams has been annoying me lately. There's a really uncomfortable and sudden absence of sound whenever someone stops talking, like the dead zone on their mics is set way too high.

Example starts at 6m30s into the raspberry pie video: https://www.giantbomb.com/videos/putting-some-pie-in-the-cabinet/2300-12961/

Anyone else noticing this? Or maybe it's just that there's too much feedback when people ARE talking that makes it so jarring.

@zalrus9: I don't know if they're going to finish those versions. Steam sales are lackluster according to the dev. Which is a shame, because the game is great.
