Wow, Congrats! Glad you're now a(n "official") part of the GB family. I look forward to continuing to enjoy your contributions to everything here (special shout out to the editing for the VOS vids, love them).
Think it's great you all are tackling this topic, and more serious topics as they are important and this is a great use of new shows to explore. This feels a little more serious in a way that GB things aren't necessarily always, and the implications of this topic are something that maybe the average online person isn't really thinking about, so I think it's good that you might spark some more critical thought (or prompt them further researching) when maybe they wouldn't have thought past the twitter jokes about it. Keep up the great work.
I was really glad to catch this last drum stream live, usually end up just catching the archive. It was so great to see the energy of chat for this last one. Like so many others these drum streams have been a really nice comfort over the last year and half (and really longer). You're the greatest @alex - Thanks for all of it over the years. Best wishes for everything.
Also don't know if any of you all will see this. But it feels like truly a privilege to have been allowed in to see your discussions and reminiscing and love for each other and your kinship and etc. Always been appreciative of being able to have you all as a part of my life like so many others on here. Loved all the laughs from memories and was glad to be able to share in those as well even though none of you know they've touched me. Wish you all the best and happiness in everything you do going forward and will be glad if there's something I get to be witness to in the future. Thanks for everything.
Hey Alex. Just wanted to say I really really have been appreciating your drum streams, they are one of the things that has been keeping my comfort and relaxation during this last year. I'm not able to catch them live, but I've been really glad to have the archive to put on while escaping into some games myself. I really enjoy your conversations with the chat during them and the tidbits of talking you do during them, it's been something I looked forward to constantly. Also thanks for all of your writing above, all the entries before the Spiritfarer one were very well written and engaging and quite enjoyable. The Spiritfarer entry was extremely affecting and heartfelt. I thank you for being willing to be so vulnerable and open with all of us strangers. I'm very sorry for your losses. Thank you again for all that you do, though I know it's not necessarily the strict intent of you doing it, it's good to know that it has a positive effect or energy that is being put out into the universe.
100% agree with @alex on Matt Cameron. He's a-fucking-mazing. Also if you haven't checked out Ten Commandos, it's a pretty solid side thing he did with Alain Johannes (also a godly musician) and Ben Shepherd.
Super excited this is back! I played through ME 1&2 but and loved them but never got around to 3. So glad I'll get to experience it for the 1st time along with you folks! Hooray for the return of Shep Shep!
Love how every video and talk about this game is "I think it's easier in some ways than any of the dark souls games" but they haven't even gotten to Genichiro boss on top of the tower, or the Great Owl in the same place. This game is horrifically unbalanced. The lows and negatives of the game detract so hard that even the best moments are not enough to over come them. From Soft should change its name to "Hardcore Git Good Games". After DS3s DLCs and this game they've convinced me to never buy another one of their games.
