It really trails off towards the end, especially with his weird insistence on only ever using the smg and shotgun and fights in general dragging out, nihilant especially with him getting snagged by those portals over and over

>show's that were way better before they tried to have an episodic story
It's amazing how so many machinimas took a violent nosedive in quality after they tried to have a deep and brooding story. RvB is another big contender for the 'video game show that took itself way too fucking seriously' award.
>>340708467
My friends and I still sing this when we get noscopes in games.

I will give you that Recollections, especially S6, was a bit iffy. S7 and S8 weren't too bad, S9 and 10 could have been done much better than they were, and Chorus Trilogy was really good, I'd say.
>>340709428
I wouldn't know. I stopped watching long ago like anyone else with any shred of sanity.

>>340709757
So are you saying that at least half, if not a lot more, of all RT fans are insane? Whether that has any truth to it or not, the show is actually good after BGC, believe it or not. I hope there aren't many, if any, people that have S9 or S10 as their favorite season though.
>>340710056
That's not what machinima means. Machinima uses video games and their engines( usually multiplayer I assume) to create a story of some sort, as far as I can tell. That's animation.

See, PGL I remember really enjoying. But I lost all respect for them because I'm almost positive they stopped making stuff after they all got the recon armor.
>>340710056
That's not machinima though, just shitty 3D animation
>>340707642
New episode came out awhile ago

>>340710330
iirc Harabek the guy who put the show together had a nervous breakdown or something
>>340707642
I love A&C so much, dude. Jon is such a cool guy and his stories surprisingly get you pretty engrossed in them. At least the later ones do. I still haven't gotten around to watching any of the newest season. Anyone else have an opinion on it?

Fuck that show sucks
I haven't watched further than whenCortana was literally burnt alive when Masterchief put her in the over.
What happened since then? I'm fairly sure Arby fell into a state of depression due to his existinal crisis and didn't know about what Chief did. Not sure if it ever continued.
>>340707642
TJ LAYYYSER is the best machinima.
Arby & Chief went up its own ass.
>>340707712
>>340707906
>>340708041
if I had eybrowz I'd costazad u so fukkem hard rite now
>>340710474
Newer one is good so far, only saw the first episode thoughJon has full control over the series again, so no more shitty censor bleeps
>>340710056
Rooster Teeth are a good example of what Weebs actually are. Leave the anime shit to Japan. cringey fucks
>>340707642
is it finally over for realsies this time? Jon always wants to end it all and get a real job and then come a few months later he's back to playing with toys because it pays the bills. Last thing I watched was the wedding arc I think.
Didn't they blow up the apartment eventually?
>>340710620
>Hya-bue-sa
Nah, but I remember really liking that guy's songs a long time ago.
Matchmaking was so good too, I totally forgot.
>>340707642
In my opinion it is. I love the humor and when it gets dark and dramatic it's actually still well written and they are somehow made into actually engaging characters.
>>340710916
It was gone for a few years now it's back. I was glad just to see Jon was still alive desu

I don't think he means worse in quality anon.
>>340711157
...All I said was that wasn't machinima, but instead animation. I do actually like RWBY, although I don't like Chibi that much.
>>340711117
nice digits
His first dramatic series, One Life to Live I think it was, for all the limitations of a headbob Halo 3 machinima was pretty good
>>340711221
>machinima is a dying artform and it's only savior is an awkwardly named website with little and poor advertising
gorillagong dot com
>>340711604
>artform
There's your problem. Its going to die because its shit, its not like its something that actually deserves to be preserved.
>>340707642
>tfw the halo 3 machinima craze is over
Also there was a show about 2 friends in an apartment mockumentary stlye. I think one was called phil or bob. Anyway if one of you know what its called itd be appreciated.
>>340711089
This. Master Chief was the best written character in the show, and Arbiter played off great. Though I always loved the dumb Hollywood arc or something like that. It was a low point, but I had a few keks
>>340711491
>>340708893
A victim of their own hubris when they started running it like a business
Even with their "friend discount", Rocco mentioned that the RT empire is still too fucking expensive to get for Game Days and other appearances
>>340711667
This?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hRjWnIQlJlg
Why did Machinima die off after Halo 3? I remember a bunch of attempts at it on Halo Reach but then it was like everyone just abandoned it
>>340711667
>hollywood arc
was that the non-canon one not done by jon iirc where they end up on the streets and eventually a game store run by a Mario that's like the prospector from toy story 2? I remember really liking it and how dark it got despite a lot of people giving it shit at the time
>>340711789
No I might watch this one though.
The one I'm talking about was like a buddy show mockumentary. I believe it took place mostly in a house on Foundry.
>>340709394
I still burst out laughing when I hear this song
>>340710365
>>340710916
>>340711117
I'm surprised he brought it back
I thought he had to stop because his figures were literally falling apart, anyone would get tired of that shit after a while
>>340712186
The song really is instalube
Why do people say the show sucks after it gets dramatic? I think it's pretty good.
>>340712380
This. The drama felt natural and fucked up. I'd like to see him actually make more professional things, which what I thought the show started as, a way to practice
>>340711902
People forget how fucking massive Halo 3 was.
Purists didn't want anything that wasn't Halo 3.
Plus Reach's additions to MP didn't help.
>>340710330
>>340710416
I thought it was because one of the main guys joined the military and they didn't want to do it without him?
Dude, Jon CJG fucking browses 4chan like a maniac
During the bytes and shit he made VERY obvious references to le sekrit klub and even now he literally wrote in Master Chief to say REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Now, Jon, I know you started this thread. Reveal yourself.I love Arby and the Chief. It's something special to me.
>being nostalgic about fucking machinima, one of the most cancerous yt channels in history

>>340711127

>>340712464
Oh I remember anon. I got my hands on that shit and rarely played anything else for like 4 years. That community was great. Constant new forge maps and game types, all the machinima videos, and Bungie got so involved with everything without trying to control shit too much. It was awesome.
>>340712879
What movie?
>>340712710
That's all bled out to Reddit and Twitter my dude, 4chan is big and jokes spread fast
>>340712902
I liked the free lancer stuff even if it got a little silly.
But when they went full matrix I got turned off.

There's a new season? Last I saw they blew up the apartment and died, how the hell do you come back from that?
>>340712978
Ross right now is putting a lot of his time into making his movie that was in his head for years. Ever since he asked fans for money he decided he'll make the movie and do a full freemans mind of halflife 2, but the movie comes first. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe he's using a lot of assets from witcher to make the movie. And no, I'm pretty sure people don't know what the movie is going to be about.

He was the best Character
>>340713603
I'm curious of what the subplot for moon gaming is. He's almost like spoony,he hasn't done enough of the subplots yet to truly be judged,with subplots in the episode without being forced
>>340713649
if all you watch was the 3 seasons, i say keep it forgotten.
>>340713987
>Spoony
man he hasn't done anything in forever. I know he put out a reb brown thing as his first video in a long time but it was shit imo and I'm usually all down for some brown. He seems like he wanted out of the internet reviewer thing.
>>340713674
He's really got my respect for trying to publicize the issue of games being killed of, it really shows how much he loves the medium.
>>340714198
At least we have livewire r-right anon?
>>340713460
>that season they did after Lyle left
It really showed that he did almost all of the jokes for the show. Dex is terribly unfunny.
>>340714375
I actually caught one of his streams once, was boring as fuck. he didn't egage with the chat at all or make any interesting commentary, just mumble and occasionally bitch in an unfunny way about the game. He's not the same unscripted
>>340714354
Same here. Also the fact that he even has had the original creators come out of the woodwork and work on their old games to help them run better on modern systems (such as with Smite or Strife or whatever it was, that doom RPG)
He's just an all around good guy. i trust him to not let it go to his head, he made Freeman's Mind for 7 years and even now he still just seems like a dude who legitimately loves what he does, and wants to make quality content.

Almost no one else talks about it as passionately as Ross. The first time he brought it up I was like, yeah okay bring it up once and you'll never talk about it again. But the fact that he has a YouTube channel plus other episodes dedicated to the death of video games is amazing. That's why he's my favorite youtuber
>>340714172
This episode was hilarious
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q4Bk4Yr2ONg
I've been doing the whole "COOL NEW FRIENDS" thing for years and completely forgot where I got it from.
>>340714497
Honestly his streams are more orblsee him playing a game. I can dig it but I understand why it's not popular
>>340713674
It has to do with how he got fucked hard by Machinima but didn't let that get to him at all after he'd sorted it out and just started doing content again as soon as he was legally able to.

Sure, all of them were shit.
Be honest /v/
What sort of machinima did you and your friends try to make?Back in the days of Halo 2, we got as far as planning our characters in a show we were gonna call Elites vs Spartans.My character was Cajun, an Elite that killed his old squad with his creole cookingI sent an email to RT telling them that we were making it and asking for tips and help.
>shitty machinima based on a mediocre game
No.
>>340709367
Hell yes, I loved that show
>>340717165
i remember i wanted to make a ssb:brawl machinima and wrote out a simple characters outline and how the opening would be shot. From what i remember, it was shitty and cringy.
>>340717249
You faggots call the police, I'll beat you guys up!
>>340712520

>>340717794
I literally just finished watched the full thing.
I love Scott.
Do you guys have any special Halo stuff? I have a couple things. I bought these two guys a few years ago after the show ended so I'd always have a piece of it.

Divine Throne was probably my favorite Machinima maker.
>>340720996
Google Tactonyx Studios. I saw him on some B/S/T page for movie and game props on
You can get them for as low as like $100 I think for unfinished, unpainted kits. I got mine painted, finished and assembled for $200. Little steep, but I've always wanted to own a piece of Halo, especially that Magnum.
Dude does other guns too.
>>340721765
Legitimate guns or just models? For that price I'll put towards a gun.
>>340707642
is the new series any good?
>>340721948
Models. A custom gun like that would probably cost in the thousands, with all the milling that would need to be done.
What happened to machinima? I remember when there was machinima everywhere but after Reach came out it all just died suddenly.
