Coldplay moment should be in the best of just for Jeff's laugh alone.

This steam feels exactly like it used to staying up all night at a friends house playing split screen Tony Hawk and chatting shit.

Chill Abby has quickly become my favorite character in the GBCU (Giant Bomb Cinematic Universe, obviously)

Do you guys all use the DPAD or the analog sticks for tricks?

This was a super fun time, just the four of you hanging out and shooting the shit while dropping sick combos and hitting gnarly lines. Would love some more of this kinda thing.

@philipduck: it's likely because people were being gross or intrusive around being able to see into her home on other streams. Women on streams get a load of nasty attention that people don't realise. None of the crew signed up to have all of us seeing into their private homes. The fact they've been as open as they have been is amazing and we should be grateful. The office looks awesome.

Why is the gameplay window so small compared to the webcam feeds? Were they afraid to get copyright claimed on youtube or something?

Stop making your own speculation into fact, people. Abby already stated she's paying out of her own pocket. This was a fun stream but we have people instead hung up on who is paying for that office.

Great. I come in here to check the comments on a very fun, chill stream, and of course it's ruined by dickbags bitching about the only woman on staff.

GB as a whole better be doing surprisingly damn well behind the scenes to condemn this shit, because on video I hear awfully little about it from anyone but Abby. She shouldn't have to be the only one talking about this.

@humanity: How did Abby manage to get GB to pay for an office space when the other guys are stuck in their tiny apartments? Is it just a case they didn't complain?

@moda said:

@philipduck: Wait Abby doesnt seriously have a separate office space from her apartment does she? Jeez is that where GiantBomb subs are going?

Hang these on a wall for some of the worse takes I have seen in the comment section. Holy hell.

I have not enjoyed a stream this much in a long time. I'm just playing Remnant and dying because I'm laughing so hard, and also dying in the game too.

Ben and Abby look so comfy. I support it.

I've been meaning to buy a Tony Hawk game ever since that warehouse level demo on my Dreamcast, but I just never got around to it. The time is now.

The strip club talk was very uncomfortable for me cause they are either overthinking it or don’t want to offend anyone. I get Abby doesn’t understand dudes getting horny around each other but that is a thing some of us are ok with with

I find alot of talk these days narrows down to people who dont give two F's aka Dan and tell it like it is to improve their social anxiety and just put all cards on the table like me or not. And others who read the room so much and try to keep everyone in the "correct" side so they dont offend or say something now considered offensive. It makes it hard to correct behavior and learn from mistakes when people are so afraid to get called out for being off on a social issue. We should explain and help each other. I guess that's where the no kink-shaming thing is from but altogether the entire era were in is backfiring on itself as we try too much instead of just being better people all around.

PS not all men like strip clubs in fact tons don't for several reasons. People just often talk to men who do. That said if they were that liked by most men you'd see us at them when 21 instead of a local bar.

@bemusingname: People were signaling her streams out and talking about her background. Dang. Never thought about whether the other crew gets that attention. Maybe i overlook it. Sometimes jeff gets comments on the size of his room, baby stuff, etc. Overall the anxiety to be streaming from home must suck. I always think of streaming but want the barest room possible so people can't get that sense that there in my room...thousands of strangers etc. So i get why abby would want her own set. I'm sure something could be discussed on that but i cant think of any. Just overall i think the peering into your room aspect can rub some the wrong way. men included.

You can tell who's been paying attention to Abby's streams of late if they're complaining that she's got an office and is somehow forcing GB to pay for it to show off to the others. Her Rhythm Heaven Fever videos feature her early streams there where she said she's paying for it with her own money and wanted to have a place to stream from that wasn't her home because people being able to see her place with all of the creepy shit that comes with that, so she got a nearby office space to stream from. People have different priorities and it's usually different for men and women.
