Thirsty Dog posted:She's only just joined the cast, and if I'm honest it's a weird vibe right now as she doesn't bring a lot of PC-specific knowledge and there's this "her boyfriend makes fun of her constantly" thing going on as she fumbles her way through the episode, but once she's on a topic she's confident with she has plenty of good things to say. Way less whimsical than on RPS and so far more interesting than on Daft Souls. She's guested multiple times before and was a fuckin delight every time.

program666 posted:goons only don't like totalbiscuit because SA is 90% story gamers (besides nintendo discussion), otherwise they would be glad for his videos since he is one of the very few guys on youtube that really care for gameplay, options menu, etc. I think after Ryan Davis people just don't want to listen to another podcast where the host dies.

Opposing Farce posted:"You'll have to face it, the endings are the same however you slice it. Don't be deluded by any other endings, they're all fake, either deliberately fake, with malicious intent to deceive, or just motivated by excessive optimism if not by downright sentimentality. The only authentic ending is the one provided here: Kole and Gary die. Kole and Gary die. Kole and Gary die."--Margaret Atwood Gary and Kole are an undead favourite so I don't think that'd stop them.

TetsuoTW posted:Also "grundle" is a great word so I'm all in favor of whatever it takes to get a grundle riff going. What if Video Games Hot Dogs starts talking about Riff's grundle?

Regrettable posted:So, are the Video Game Hotdog guys goons? They were totally making jokes about poopsocking in the episode I'm listening to. I think Danielle mentioned poopsocking on a recent Idle Weekend, too. The term is pretty ubiquitous now.

Did Video Games Hot Dog go all the way through the assignment without mentioning the name of the game once? I don't think I missed it, but I might have been distracted.

Jippa posted:Do you know anyone that owns VR stuff? I think the only people I have ever heard talking about it are games journos. At a certain point it seemed like the future of gaming but now it just seems like this weird rich persons cul de sack. I know a guy that owns a vr, but also owns like 50 pinball tables so really I'm just proving your point.

Gaspy Conana posted:I was a mega Idle Thumbs/VGHD fan and I know I'm quite late to really getting into it, but IMO the closest podcast to those in tone right now is Insert Credit. The lineup consists of game archivist Frank Cifaldi, game dev/sega liker Brandon Sheffield, 3-hour-Doom-review guy Tim Rogers, and game dev/affable host Alex Jaffe. I appreciate how full of weird trivia they all are and they have great chemistry. Downloaded the most recent ep with Jim and it's real good. Thanks for the recommendation!

Xtanstic posted:Is this a Valve joke or have they genuinely transitioned out of the industry? They've smartly taken a step back from their social media/internet presence so I don't actually know what they're up to. I know Chris Remo has his crossword YouTube that actually was the push that finally unlocked crosswords for me. That Archeology game that they were working on got cancelled, so whatever they're doing at Steam, it isn't that.

ja2ke posted:Basically all of us worked on Half Life Alyx, which I know is a VR game so some people just don’t count it, especially in the world of binary Goon opinions. But we all did story work on it, Vanaman wrote a ton of that game (and it has both the Firewatch leads in small roles), and Remo and I both worked on various pieces of art and design in it. Weirdly we ended up doing a bunch of pocket Half Life lore for it - all the newspapers you can pick up and read in the game were designed by me and written by Chris. I did some level design on it especially across the narrative infused areas like the opening on the rooftop, the train wreck, the scene with the shadowy woman talking to the advisor. It was a lot of small stuff across the game but ended up adding up to quite a lot of work. We’ve also worked on Steam Deck, and many of us are working on Unannounced Things. I see you say we are working “at steam,” and I’d say that’s a misnomer. Other than a few little things here or there, and other than some work on Steam Deck, we’ve largely worked on game projects since we got here. The biggest one is Half Life Alyx but there have been some smaller things like Dota Underlords and also some things that are unannounced. Hi Jake, thanks for answering. Sorry, when I said "at Steam" I forgot the actual name of the company "Valve". I had to read your post twice before it even registered what I did lol. Hope everyone is doing well, miss the pods.

Kris xK posted:They just need to put Rowan on a timer. "You've hammered on about some random loving thing for 5 min, we are now muting your mic so others can talk" I stopped listening to Insert Credit for the same reason; Tim Rogers is always the first to talk, filibusters until he maybe figures out why he was talking in the first place, and is completely incapable of ending a paragraph. Dude sucks poo poo.

Mode 7 posted:I go through cycles of how much it bothers me - Tim frequently has good or funny points in the midst of that verbosity - but will admit that I preferred the chunk of episodes where Tim was out and they just had a rotating guest slot instead. I think I got introduced to the show when he wasn't on it, and it was this fun and snappy show with cool guests, then this bloviating idiot starts showing up and it's like 86% unlistenable sludge, 9% someone else gets to talk, 4% soundboard, 1% he actually tells a funny joke. If someone could please let me know when he's off the show again, I'd appreciate it.
