Does Arin ACTUALLY suck at SM64?

I mean, I understand it's a little difficult at parts, but come on.
>>
No just the one that caused the most butthurt for some reason.

To be honest this series actually got entertaining when Arin realized how much the comments were spazzing out and I'm pretty sure started to play badly on purpose to generate views. But that's just my theory
>>
>>318277949
I wouldn't know. I don't watch them.

I stopped watching when they gave up on Donkey Kong Country 2.

He sucks at everything except Suzy's dick, which is why she cheated on him.
>>
The Deadrising one is pretty terrible too. I can tolerate Arin being awful since that's to be expected but Danny clearly knows how to play it and refuses to help Arin because he doesn't want to hurt his fucking feelings. It's getting pretty cringeworthy.
>>
>>318278135

So he's going full DSP? It doesn't feel like Arin is doing it on purpose. I think Arin is just really that bad.
>>

I enjoy how Arin completely admits that Danny is his second choice and still clearly likes Jon ore than Dan. Shame Jontron is going full shillmode.

Egoraptor jumped the shark years ago. Game Grumps introduced me to Jontron, who I still watch, and it's annoying seeing how obsessed some of the comments on his videos get over anything GG related.
>>
I only care about the people on Grumpcade.
>>
Wind Waker was really bad, but it was sometimes entertaining to see how easily they'd miss obvious clues and button prompts.

Pokemon Fire Red was really bad, I didn't even know that it was possible to be that bad at Pokemon. Makes me wonder how Emerald would have gone if they continued it.
>>
>>318278289
I stopped watching when they gave up on Secret of Mana

Probably a little better, since Jon had knowledge of Pokemon with whatever's Arin's was. Danny is oblivious to Pokemon outside of knowing his favorite pokemon.
>>
>>318277949
Do people actually prefer the Jon era? I went back and watched a few old episodes and they're barely talking to each other, just shouting and making noises while each one tries to start a conversation that the other isn't interested in. Dan and Arin have actual chemistry.

It made me really mad at the time they were airing it, but in retrospective I enjoy it a lot. My biggest problem was how little happened in the 10 minute span, it was usually Arin just being a retard for the entire video with little to no progress being made, but now that I can watch the entire thing in one go I enjoy it. I watch/listen to it while playing vidya or drawing. Same with Sonic '06.

Dan is too afraid to say anything that would get him kicked off the show. Jon did whatever the fuck he wanted to do because it was a 50/50 thing they filmed in a basement, not Arin's personal conglomerate with paid employees in an office.

My favorite part of fire red was when some faggot tried to say 10 hours was WR for fire red and they were on WR pace. Arin is insufferable to watch with how bad he is. The channel is only good for background noise or if Ross / Dan / Barry / Brian are in a video. Arin and piggu are unwatchable.

Don't watch them expecting good gameplay. I found the episodes where they were both tired and Arin played worse than usual were pretty funny.

Dead Rising is awesome, I'm glad they are playing it.

But sure, Deadly Creatures was pretty fucking hilarious. They often ignore what their fans want and just play games that fits their mood instead.

There were like 5 people that sent them Silent Hill 4 and I know a lot of people would want to watch them finish it (even if they are terrible at it) but they won't, because some shit about Danny feeling depressed by the game.

You're not wrong. I'm so sick of literally anyone but arin and danny.

I usually enjoy watching people react to undertale, but ross spoiled it to shit and put on his horrible acting for all the plot twists, being too fucking loud for barry to even react, WHILE putting shitty voices over some of the most memorable parts of the game.

I just have a new hate for ross, he's already a witless kek with bad taste and shit art. But now he's " that guy that doesn't know when to stop voice acting". I would literally fight that fucking kid and happily fuck his wife.

They have the only watchable dynamic on the entire channel.

Jon was annoying and spergy, sure. But his opinions and taste were pretty good. At least compared to Egoraptor who has backward-ass contrarian opinions on EVERYTHING.

The series was okay, but that is the only memorable episode, because the discussion was something different, and Arin wasn't yelling.

No one is interested? I mean I don't blame you guys, this kind of post is made every 2 days or so and usually fake.

Fuck it, I'll just post relevant things

I only got this job because I'm a friend with Kevin the editor and because I lost my previous job.

Arin doesn't hate Jon nor does Jon hate Arin. They chat with each other rather frequently through texting. Although they'll never do a Jon Guest Grump because the fans will fucking freak out.

Arin and Suzy are no doubt doing GG for the money at this point. I mean having to write those Crunchyroll skits proves that they've totally sold out. Dan on the otherhand genuinely doesn't care about GG and only does it to promote his band.

There has been talk that they're trying to slowly kill of Steam Train and integrate it into GrumpCade/GG.

Ross is almost always fucking drunk. If he's not playing games here at the office he's either drinking or sleeping on a bean bag. He's honestly pretty pathetic.

And last but not least, no, I don't talk to Arin or Dan outside of work.

Believe what you want, but all of its true.

What happened with these guys?

Back when Jon was on it, it was like two friends making stupid retard jokes about shit and nothing was unacceptable to joke about.

It was retard shit, but it was fun retard shit I could get behind.

Then Danny came on, he seems like a really sweet guy and I doubt it's his fault, but when he got there the show because ultra PC and they were only allowed to talk about boring safe shit.

It went from bursting with like to dead as fuck.

I haven't watched in probably well over a year now, did they ever pull back from tumblr 13 year olds level and get fun again?
>>
>>318291917
The problem with the fanbase is that they are so entitled. They expect the grumps to bend to their every whim, and then complain even when they do that.

That and the constant circlejerk in the comments is what killed the community. The only time that the comments weren't complete ass was during SA because of all the sonic fags were trying to defend the game's broken state, and all the shitposting that came as a result.
>>
>>318292662
the camera complaint on 64 is a valid yet kinda minor issue. if anything they improved that by making the camera smarter in future games, ultimately taking away user control, which i honestly dislike about some games with no free cameras.

and for Zelda, i guess the problem with OoT is the linearity of it. unless if you know some glitches you are gonna have pretty much the same runs as every one else. I enjoy zeldas like Link Between Worlds and the really old zeldas over it.

there are critisms of both games, but i don't think the arguement of aging badly is a sound one. it's just people played the games, loved them, then uses what they loved about them to their games they are marketing today and leaving out the features that frustrates themselves.
>>
>>318292284
Fuck it I'll play along.

So the Jon and Arin Guest Grumps. Are they anticipating a fan freakout relating to them asking questions about Jon initially leaving?
>>
>>318292943
It really sucks, the comments are horrible. I like how they stab constantly at the Youtube comments. The rebbit must be even worse though.
>>
>>318292492
well as one of the guys saying SM64 held up well and OoT not as much, I would just rather play SM64 on a whim than OoT. There's nothing particularly wrong with either and they both have many more recent installments that are debatably as good or better.
>>
>>318293160
It's just "Suck Arin and Suzy's cocks or don't bother posting at all."

Same shit with every other community on the internet.
>>
>>318292867

Nah. Very rarely one will make a non pc joke, and they'll laugh at it but quickly kind of apologize for it. That's about it.

I personally don't mind the political correctness, I just kind of feel like they are just trying to pump out as many episodes as possible to the detriment of the show. Back with jon episodes would regularly run long, and if they spent an entire episode with no progress because they made a stupid death, a lot of the time they would do a fast forward. Now, Danny will SCREAM as soon as the clock hits 9:59 to stop the episode, and I can't remember the last time they used a fast forward. If they waste an entire episode because arin doesnt pay attention and dies, they'll just end the episode and try again tomorrow, or end the series
>>
>>318292758
No

>>318293125
They aren't anticipating it because they know for a fact fans would go apeshit. That's the main reason they'll never do a Jon Guest Grump. The other reasons are mainly due to cost of him to fly out to California, having his schedule freed up, and whanot.
>>
>>318293125
>Jon and Arin guest grumps
WHAT
>>
>>318293160
The Game Grumps subreddit is quite possibly the most autistic cringy thing in the known universe.

People genuinely belive that Arin and Danny are their real friends and every other post is "the Game Grumps stopped me from killing myself"

Watching videos of thier con panels are even worse. People just screaming memes and tyring desperately to touch them.

It's an amazing phenomenon that I haven't noticed in say the Two Best Friends play audience
>>
>>318292867
Jon and Arin weren't just friends on a couch playing games, they were peers.
They both knew how to play games (kinda) and were able to talk about if something felt good or bad. They also had great banter.
Danny is sweet as you said, but he doesn't know enough about games to call Arin out on his shit, and he's too nice to get in his face and tell him he's wrong about something like Jon was, like when Arin talks about OoT or Banjo and Kazooie.

It would have been better if Ross took over as the co-lead, but I really think Arin doesn't actually like Ross.
>>
>>318292867
>What happened with these guys?

first of all the initial excitement wore off, which happens to literally everything. the second big problem was that egoraptor turned it into a business venue instead of entertainment. they probably can't say anything non-pc because of all the companies that GG is in bed with now. companies usually don't want endorsed people saying anything remotely homophobic/racist/whatever.

If you're looking for post jon, I thought most of sonic adventure DX was pretty good. Super bonk, Dog Island, endless ocean 2 were pretty good I guess.

Honestly I think arin/danny are only at their best with one offs of weird games, seeing danny react to shit. A lot of times with long series arin will absolutely fail at the game, and danny runs out of things to say, so he starts talkin about boring normie things like bands and shit

The weird thing about Suzy is she has naturally big eyebrows, and when she lets them grow normally they suit her face and she doesn't look like a reptillian in a costume anymore.

Are you sure?

I'm pretty sure they've both talked about going to improv together.

Granted I tend to only watch series of games I like which are few and far between these days so eh maybe I'm getting them mixed up.
>>
>>318294647

Maybe, I just really enjoyed seeing them shitting on the game. Knuckles/gamma was frustrating seeing arin being retarded as usual, amy was boring, but sonic/tails/big really entertained me with how much they shat on the shitty game.
>>
I watched one of them playing Mario Maker

Arin started singing along to the background music of fucking Mario, and his lyrics were "suck my big fat dick".
That's LITERAL DarkSydePhil tier. DSP can't think of any worthwhile shit to say but he's such a fucking spaz he has to keep flapping his ugms so he just "sings" to the background music of whatever he's playing, usually with "look at how funny swear words are" lyrics, and it's obnoxious as fuck. Arin does the literal same shit and that's when I realized, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that Game Grumps is finally DSP. The two are one.
>>
>>318293513
Endless Ocean is the best stand alone episode. If you really don't want to sink time into it then just watch the monthly compilations.

Nope, they both are. In fact, the entire crew is. They talk about it on Mario Galaxy I think.

Danny's mention of improv classes was in a Mario Sunshine playthrough and he was talking about the stuff he did there. He and Arin did not attend them together.

I wouldn't watch the official monthly compilations though. Kevin or whoever chooses the moments usually picks unfunny shit and fails to capture any semblance of context necessary for the humor to hit.

I find fan compilations much better. I actually watched a series of fan compilations that took practically every worthwhile moment from the jon era and it was perfect for days of background entertainment

Well improv class would help with the content of their show, but what pisses me off is how they talk like "oh I just got back from japan" or "we're planning to go to japan again" but then go and say they're overworked and always busy like fuck off faggots you aren't busy.

>>318295251
Stamper was getting really obnoxious in his last episodes. He started acting on the contrary for the sake of it and it really didn't add much.

Now, if Ricepirate cuts down on his appearances, Shad never shows up again, and they don't do anymore sketches, Sleepycast will be gold.
>>
so one or two times arin and danny have commented on how they literally have no time to do anything because they work all the time.

how is this possible?

they release ~40 mins of content every day, and that workload is split between like 6 or something people. they could easily make enough content for a week in a single day.

arin and danny don't do the editing, so that doesn't take any of their time.

danny has his band which must take some of his time, but what the fuck does arin do that keeps him THAT busy? he doesn't animate anymore. is he just talking out of his ass like when he says he doesn't spend/make a lot of money yet goes to disneyland all the fucking time and spends thousands of dollars on games he won't ever play?

It really shows how much shekels they're making with this shit. You make fun of Arin now but he'd have to be a madman to let go of an opportunity like this.

I still think Jon was better than Danny by a longshot. He actually played video games and had experience entertaining, even if it was just theater stuff, so he was good at improv and had the knowledge to carry his half of the burden. Call him a sperg or whatever but he understood what the channel was and he had great chemistry with Arin, who had the opportunity to be dry and cynical since Jon was so bombastic.

Dan knows fuck all about video games and usually prattles on about whatever asinine normalfag thing he did that day. This wouldn't even be that bad if Arin didn't have to play the "role" Jon did, trying to act wacky and knowledgeable to counter Dan having all the entertaining expertise of your average retarded college dropout. The result is Arin not being who he really is, but not being able to be who he really is because the show would be way more mute and not appealing to little kids or people who only watch for those moments of ridiculousness Jon and Arin had.

These guys have it really fucking cushy. Yeah, it seems like they have fun at the office, but they make it seem like it's so fucking hard for them to come in and play a game for four or five hours twice a week. To everyone here that probably sounds like a fucking dream job. If I was about to, I'd do Arin's "job" six days a week. I guess that explains why the Best Friend have so much content, because they actually like playing video games.

Well they usually film for about 1-2 hours, so that makes about 5-10 episodes, depending on if they like the game their playing. So Arin/Danny do this twice, so maybe 2-4 hours of filming for two different games. Then the middle slot is whatever now, so it could be any of the grumps, expect Danny. So really that's all they do filming wise, with Arin being the only one who can be in all of the uploads. As for who does what now, it's not hard to guess

Arin: Aside from GG, nothing. He always says he's animating, but he isn't. He just likes to say hes doing something.

Dan: Has his band with NSP and just does GG for money and band exposure, which has actually helped a ton.

Barry: Edits episodes here and there, and might be in a Steam Train or Grumpcade. I know he mentioned awhile back about making a game, but he doesn't do much also.

Suzy: She hasn't been in a recent GG episode, so I think with her KKG channel, she won't be coming back since all the backlash of fans not liking her, which was reasonable since she wasn't really funny and ruined the mood.

Ross: Aside from a Steam Train/Grumpcade, I don't know what he does. His WoW project absolutely failed, it was really hard to watch and NONE of them looked interested. Suzy was shopping online instead.

Kevin: Just edits, he's essentially the new Barry but worse. I can see him being the personal assistant to Arin to get him whatever he needs.

I know they added Brian, who used to be a professor in England. I don't know fucking why he would quit an incredible job to be on a internet show, but whatever. He's new and is pretty funny, but his "I have a Ph.D" joke got old quick.
