Yeah, like Rorie mentioned that you can get a spear in the door to completely dodge the lighting attack without needing to jump three times and Brad shot him down because "the flame sword is so strong." It's like he's not noticing the pattern and forgetting when he's doing damage and when he isn't.

This quote must always be remembered as to why people make fun of how bad DMC's story was. Don't ever let anyone say that it was bad on purpose, that it was supposed to be a enjoyed for how absurd it was. No, they wanted to make something deep and moving and tell a story that had never been told in videogames before.

Chips video is just "Hey retard, buy the dodge. Check the controls in help. Parry." stretched out over ten minutes. Then he talks about blade mode canceling and dodge offset for the last five, which actually are the kind of advanced secret techniques you need to learn on youtube

Man, what is going on.

Told Brad that Dark Souls would be getting patched on PC dropping GFWL ( according to Namco Bandai themselves through Joystiq ). When this happened to Batman/Bioshock all previous saves were erased/corrupted, and even using the save editor some guy whipped up leads to the saves getting recorrupted down the road. It's a lovely situation that should probably get some airtime, so I figured it'd be good for Brad/GB to know.

This has led to me getting tons of really angry PMs by people screaming I'm discouraging people from playing the best game ever, am a total liar, and how do I know the saves won't work. Brad's Tumblr/Twitter have a few really angry people messaging him about how I'm a lying scumbag who needs to die in a fire. Even pointing out what happened to Batman/Bioshock has just led to "nu uhs!" by what I assume are adults who should know better.

How are people this angry. :psyduck: Are they just really angry that their maxed out Dark Souls PC saves from launch are going to get wiped, and trying to plug their ears and yell or something?

It's baffling because I've never seen the GB community this riled up over something so trivial. So what if I'm wrong and Namco manages to patch it in such a way that the saves are saved. Then everyone was worried for no reason, and a few people hold off on playing the game/burn through the game before July. It's not like if I'm wrong Dark Souls 2 never gets released on PC or something.

I love Dark/Demon's Souls and Bayonetta. They are both the exact same design philosophy of "look get good at video games again you limp dicked soft gently caress". I do not know how you hold Bayonetta up and denounce Souls for both going "hey this is what we're doing here. This is the game mechanics. This is your skill set. GET GOOD FUCKER!"

I mostly quit doing it because it was starting to feel too self-indulgent. While I'd love a reason to play Dota at work every day, the time I was burning on it didn't seem worth the level of interest from the audience (though that might be my own self-defeating paranoia talking). If enough people actually want it to come back, I'd love to at least do it weekly if not more often. Sadly we've lost Kessler to the corporate void, so filling the lineup is a bit harder than it used to be.

We were also trying to find a way to stream from the perspectives of everyone on the team so it isn't as boring when I'm playing a farm-dependent hero or having a lovely lane, but directed spectator is on the two-minute delay (problematic for syncing voice chat), and coach's mode requires someone else to sit on a second PC and manually spectate, which ain't gonna happen. Haven't come up with any other ideas for that yet.

Please replace daily dota with daily demons souls tia

He sure is, but that doesn't automatically make everything he says wrong. He raises a lot of interesting point about Steam sales, and while I'd totally love to hear an opposing view point, there's no possible way they are without any downsides. It's going to take more than a year or two of them before the long term consequences can be uncovered. Maybe they're great for game sales and (more importantly) game quality. Maybe they're not. But no one here has the sort of data required to declare that right now.
