Did they buff that guy like a lot or something? He's wasn't that big a deal back when I played, and it's not like Woolie wants to buy his pyromancies. I don't understand the big panic.

I hope he stays alive and shows up to every Walking Dead game like halfway through just to keep tormenting Matt and Pat with visions of Walking Dead past.

I literally slapped my forehead in shame and disbelief at the utterly, stupidly self defeating move woolie made during the latest episode of dark souls 2, wow woolie, as if the game literally yelling at you to not do something if you knew what's good for you wasn't enough.

He did it on purpose so he could fight him, and he wasn't selling anything that he cared about. Slow your roll.

Don't get it twisted who your enemies are.
I haven't seen any of the Season 2 LP yet (just finished S2E4 myself) but to me the whole Kenny situation seems like kind of a self-fulfilling prophecy. They were kinda wishy-washy in the beginning of S1 and kept trying to be the "good" guy, despite the game pretty much telling them that poo poo ain't gonna fly. The obvious example being saving Larry despite him being a massive unlikeable shitlord who for all Matt knew in the moment was about to turn. This makes Kenny hate them, which makes him act like a dick, which makes them hate Kenny, which makes them act like dicks toward him, which makes Kenny hate them, and so on. I'm not saying they played it wrong, or they're idiots and how dare they talk poo poo on my BFF Kenny but I almost started to think they were putting on an act (which is a dumb thing to think considering who we're talking about, I know) because it got so over the top at certain points. Every little thing he did elicited a "gently caress you Kenny," regardless of whether or not he actually deserved it, and he deserves it plenty in their playthrough. I actually would have been interested to see Matt do the opposite of Pat so he could see the differences and comment on them, regardless of which one was the one to kill Larry.

Also, at least Kenny has the potential to be your pal and help you out. There's zero chance of Ben not loving everything up all the time.

The youtube comment abuse is just stupid and not even worth talking about really.

He was basically my Dark Souls Team Rocket. I'd be finishing up some tough area and feeling pretty good about myself or be running some errand and Navlaan would invade and I'm all "Oh goddamn it, Navlaan, I'm loving busy" and have to spend like 5 minutes beating the poo poo out of him.

It's because they actually told a joke a couple of Walking Dead episodes ago so people are naturally clinging to it in the midst of the Kenny hate-boner storm

Matt basically suggested that Pat was sad because the south lost the civil war

More specifically, when they're in the Civil War museum Pat goes "aww, now I'm sad" (because Lee was a History teacher and would've liked the place) and Matt instantly went with "because the South lost the war?". They did joke about fanart with him as a Confederate apologist, so Reddit's just following the lead.

As someone who just went through it he should be fine if he just gets a bit more aggressive while also getting a lot smarter on stamina management and rolling.

So yeah, he's hosed.

I don't know, I don't think I can begrudge anyone having some issues in Dark Souls 2 after Jeff Green completely imploded at the very start of it. I mean he beat loving Dark Souls 1, how the hell is No-man Wharf's some impossible challenge for him??? That was the most baffling thing.

I can easily see how people that beat DS1 struggle with DS2, because the former gets to be auto-pilot when you find Havel's gear and tank through with 20 Estus.

DS2 stresses far more than being able to manage stamina and learning to roll since the game heavily punishes you for being a tank. It's also far more combat heavy compared to DS1 which might as well be more of a exploration game, especially because you can't increase stamina at a high level in DS2.

Jeff Green didn't beat Dark Souls 1 he survived it against all odds.

Yeah. Beyond: Two Souls is easily my favorite Super Best Friends production in terms of pure humor - Beyond alternates between being shoved up its own rear end, making Ellen Page feel really uncomfortable, and being relentlessly silly. Prime LP material, and the combo of Matt, Patt, and Woolie bring great chemistry to it.

It makes you think they read ahead on the episodes because every single justified Kenny hate is in the last episode, where he just goes full psychopath rear end in a top hat (even though I'm told everyone hates Arvo more).
