This one hurts. And more than not having any more funny videos to look forward to, I hate knowing that this is how it went down..

I started watching them from the Machinima days, I didn't even find the main channel for like a year.

The Sleeping Dogs video is still one of the funniest things I've seen and I rewatch it every now and then. "TEXTING LIKE A BOSS" always makes me laugh super hard.

Well, these are some lovely news to wake up to.

Since all three guys have been producing solo content that I enjoy on different levels and the podcast will go on in some form, the thing that stings most is Matt (and Liam) and Pat breaking up their friendship. I hope it wasn't anything major, just a slow erosion that finally took it all down.

Posting from dozens of pages back to say that I am incredibly sad and these dudes got me through some rough times and it’s hosed up that it had to go down like this.

But really, I always felt like it was inevitable ever since 2 Christmasses ago when Liam quit and Matt took a leave of absence and Pat and Woolie knuckled down and played Dark Souls as hard as they could to keep the channel from Hollowing.


But yeah this is going to gently caress me up. I’m going to brace myself before I watch the announcement video.

Awful to hear. Especially since their currently LPs, especially Kingdom Hearts, were good!

And it's surprising to hear Matt and Pat aren't friends, because I would not be able to tell that from the current Star Trek LP. I thought they still had good chemistry there.

I just learned Pat and Paige are banned words on Liam's stream.

So this kinda doubles down that Pat is as bad in real life as he puts on.

Well, without any info about how long that's been in effect it might just be not wanting that headache getting into his streams. Focus on Mansex people!

I don't think I've really followed an LP of theirs since Omikron due to lack of time, still sad to see it all break apart like this. I've been watching their dumb bullshit since, like, their second or third machinima video. I remember getting so excited whenever they had a new video.

Pat reminds me a lot of this lovely friend I had who was a huge rear end in a top hat but he was kind of fun to be around. The more you are around those people though the more you begin to realize how much your level of tolerance for other people's shittiness doesn't grow and you just want to stop being friends with them. I feel like Pat is a similar kind of person to that friend, but Pat is slightly less lovely. It also reminds me of how other people would think that friend is funny when they see him in passing, but personally dealing with them is a drain and I feel like both Liam and Matt felt that.

Sorry to armchair psychoanalyze, but I just thought that this was all familiar to me with the archived stuff people are bringing up.

I feel like this is about it, yeah. The cube/bee poo poo with Pat was a good reminder that he loves to yell at people until he's 'proven' right, and that would happen constantly with Liam. That energy can get exhausting. That and creative differences with how they want to deal with making content is probably what ended their friendship.

It's still stings to just get that they are no longer friends, idk if this makes me morbid, but I do wish they would go down on what happened on/before that FNF in a bit more detail, just to get a full picture.

I'll definitely still hear the Chewie & Fuckface show, and I really like Matt's Whu Happun and Edgelords. I guess I'll check out more of Liam's stuff now. And Pat & Paige's stream, even when those are gonna have a bit of a sour taste to.

Hahah, and earlier this week I kept thinking "oh man, they should totally invite Liam to this week's Fisticuffs since it's Smash and its been two years so everything must be cool with them" :smith:

Not entirely my place to say it, but it’s a sad day. I think we all wish it could have gone any number of other ways, but this is probably the best route at this point. As the age-old adage goes;

“Welcome in Omicron”

Worst part is that this probably only makes the Sonic Unleashed LP more likely to be finished.

Between this and Takahata's implications it definitely sounds like this has been a slow buildup since Liam's exit. Kind of a bummer in that case.

Yeah, I still check out the pat and paige archives. Only thing is I cancelled my subscriptions and won't support them monetarily, but if they're going to put the videos out there, they're still funny, I just won't give them any more money or really talk about them outside of this thread anymore.

they've been preparing for this for a while now, it's been obvious with how each has dramatically fleshed out their personal channels within the last six months. I dunno if they actually expected it to go down so quickly though.

Funny enough, we didn't even get the smash ultimate FNF they worked so hard for, or maybe that's what the breaking point was with how much they had to put into it. :smith:

I think they also hit a point where they had just run out of stuff to play honestly, a lot of the newer LPs were stuff I wasn't really interested in but watched to be supportive when I could.

Monathin posted:

I feel like Matt and Pat have two wildly different viewpoints about how the channel should move forward, and I can't see someone like Matt having an easy time dealing with someone like Pat arguing over a ton of things. Definitely feels like one of those slow-cooking breakups where your social circle's been hearing a lot of complaints about the other side but they're not anything egregious, it's just exhaustion and the realization that your plans aren't compatible with the other person's plans.

Woolie seems to have landed right in the middle, because he's better equipped to deal with Pat - they're the ones with a longer history - but he gets Matt's business decisions and actually putting effort into stuff/networking/going to cons and whatnot. I actually like his solo content quite a bit because it's a mix between stuff that he's personally invested in and the eventual shitpost video.
