Who was in the wrong here?
>>340709091
wut happen?
>>340709152
Nothing, OP is just being autistic.
Move along.
>>340709295
le sigh
>>340709152
I'm assuming he's talking about last year where FFVII remake and Shenmue III were announced and EZA acted like a bunch of retards and made Tom Cruise jumping on Oprah's couch look like totally normal behavior and GB were trying too hard to be cool and detached.
They were both in the wrong for being tryhard faggots just in different direction.
Just different reactions, no hard feelings. GB guys didn't grow up as fans of Shenmue or Final Fantasy so they weren't that excited.
>>340709152
Their fans are having a slap fight about being hype (EZA) vs anti-hype (GB) over E3.
>>340709523
My favorite thing about that entire event is that it was only the fans that cared.
Both the GameTrailers and Giant Bomb crew respect each other, they thought the entire thing was a bit ridiculous.
Like, they grew up liking different things and the two websites had different expectations while going into the event. GT was going in as a bunch of fans who were watching to be excited, GB was going in as a bunch of journalists who were watching to know which questions to ask and which articles to write.
>>340709939
>seven white guys
How has no one raised a stink about them and demanded more diversity?
>>340709523
GB has people who have been in the game since they were 15. Now they're creeping up on their 40s.
They are calm and collected because they've seen it all before.
Jeff was also in his 20s when Shenmue came out. It wasn't really a good game, guys.
It's already been superseded by Yakuza years ago.
FF7 was great, but they all knew this was coming anyway.
Most of the GB staff like FF before FF7 the most.
>"Look at the DoA 5 costume DLC sometime. They launched that game with two $100 packages of DLC. They keep adding more. They've added so many costumes to that game. Because people like to play dress-up with their funny polygonal little dolls! ... It's a shame, because I think that's a pretty decent fighting game. ... Yet it's like, they're focusing on all this other bullshit, when they should be focusing on making their fighting game an even better fighting game. That's the part where I get pissed."

>>340710123
There was a stink on neogaf.
>>340709939
I'm no SJW, but that is a lot of white people in one room.
>>340710123
it's almost like
SJWs are hypocritical or something?
>>340710291
I guess it just flew under my radar.
I remember when GB hired Dan and Jason and GAF and other places flipped their shit. Some cunt """journalist""" demanded Jeff write some kind of essay about why they hired two more white guys.
>>340710523
Not that I agree with them in any way, but it makes sense from their perspective. You have to remember that "diversity" is just code for "less straight white guys".
What are the chances of /v/ having any more comfy Giant Bomb threads?
It seems like it'll be near-zero at this point due to newfriends deciding that they're all e-celebs, but there is potential.
>>340709523
Agreed. I hope Jeff doesn't let everyone have fucking laptops this year. What a great stream to watch everyone looking at chat.
Not that it would be worth it either way.
I'm just going to watch EZA this year, I'm kind of tired of being cynical.

Zero.
Maybe if we made the threads disguised or something, but I doubt that would work.
>>340709523
Easy Allies talked about the shenmue reaction on the latest podcast. Huber seems very passionate about the series.
Still don't know why Bosman stood up on the chair though tbqh.

I don't even know why people like Greg Miller. I thought he was insufferable as IGN's in house Playstation shill.
>>340711961
They've been fucking terrible, hell one was barely 80 minutes and it was just more fucking doom, so don't worry about it.
>>340711905
Greg Miller is awful. Just shit.
A deliberate shill.
>>340710871
>"diversity" is just code for "less straight white guys"
this desu
you NEVER see them demand 'diversity' when bollywood makes movies with a 100% indian cast, when nigerian straight-to-dvd african trash films are 100% niggers, or when chink ripoff flicks are 100% asian
only ever against white people
same with sex - none of them give a fuck at all about all the fields and majors where women dominate, they only attack things that have more men than women
>>340712029
Honestly, I don't care. I just need something on in the background. It doesn't help that everything uploaded to MEGA is being taken down fucking instantly.

Yeah sure, when it comes to cool jobs like movie directors, engineers, game industry, tech industry, etc. they yell and scream about there aren't enough women. But when was the last time you saw them advocate for more women coal miners? Or fire fighters? Or construction workers?
They're such blatant two-faced shits.
>>340709874

>>340709523
>They were both in the wrong for being tryhard faggots just in different direction.
Agreed.
Though I can understand being excited. Nobody thought Shenmue had a chance; and while I'd never ask for a FFVII remake, I get it.
Acting like people were wrong for wanting both is shitty. Those titles existing don't hurt anyone.
>>340709523
>GB were trying too hard to be cool and detached.
Can you really not understand that some people just don't give a fuck about shenmue?
Every member of GB is like 5-10 years older than they would have needed to be to grow up and enjoying Shenmue
>>340713530
>Acting like people were wrong for wanting both is shitty. Those titles existing don't hurt anyone.
And this is why this controversy exists to begin with, autists can't understand that not liking something isn't actually an attack on the people who do like it.
>>340709939
What did you mean by this?

I think Brandon's personal trainer is shitskin. He's on a few streams.

>>340713985
>autists can't understand that not liking something isn't actually an attack on the people who do like it
Pretty sure Jeff Gerstmann referred to Shenmue as a "fork life simulator for assholes". He doesn't just "not like" Shenmue, he passionately hates it and happily disparaging anyone who does like it.
But that's just the standard state of discourse in the gaming community. Anyone who likes what you don't like or doesn't like what you do like is a "faggot" or a "misogynist" or a "racist" or a "manchild" or a "pedo" or a whatever. It's incredibly vitriolic.
>>340714506
so? if something you hated was popular you would say the same things. He doesn't have a responsibility to pretend to tolerate something just because people like you can't handle different opinions. If you don't like what he has to say, go watch someone else or better yet, go play some some actual video games.
>>340711594

Shenmue was a cute base for an actual good franchise, Yakuza.
>>340714756
>*Patreon campaign for Easy Allies does not meet expectations
what
>>340714907
they expected more, some major goals didn't get funded, like a fucking studio for example, also I'm pretty sure they wanted the whole gaming journo to be their day time job, but with the amount of cash they're getting it's not a possibility
>>340711905
>haha, i made the funny face again
>>340714701
>if something you hated was popular you would say the same things
I don't actually.
I'm not arrogant enough to assume I am the arbiter of good taste and I would certainly never attack someone just for being genuinely excited about something they have been waiting years for.
I like what I like and live and let live. It's really not that hard to do.
>>340715054
If they were expecting 50k, why would they set so many of the goals so low
What was the last good video GB made, famalams?
>>340715183
I like the Brad/Dan hitman videos but those seem controversial because Dan (much like MGS) offers terrible advice.
>>340715054
They said on streams at the start that they only expected to hit one or two goals.
>tfw they're doing better as EZA than they did as GT
>>340715114
>the arbiter of good taste
So by your logic it's rude and presumptuous for anyone to express dislike of anything.
>attack someone
he's stating his own opinion, he's not attacking you for Christs sake. newsflash, different people like different games.
>>340714820
Who is this?
>>340715462
fuck, this makes me appreciate how much less of a fat fucking sasquatch slob brad looks like now
>>340714506
I don't think Gerstmann ever called someone a racist or misogynist or 'manchild'
>not being cynical towards the fucking videogame industry
>believing dev and publisher lies
>believing bullshot trailers that will be downgraded to hell and back
as jeff said on one of the recent podcasts, 'I don't know what these idiots are getting excited for, the game won't look anything like that'
>>340715462
>gerst sneaking a peek at kish booty
>>340715360
>So by your logic it's rude and presumptuous for anyone to express dislike of anything.
There's a difference between expressing a dislike and objectively declaring something to be shit and anyone who like it to be shit. For example, saying "I don't like Assassin's Creed" is a little different to saying "Assassin's Creed is a fucking awful game and the fanbase are all a bunch of retards."
>he's stating his own opinion, he's not attacking you for Christs sake. newsflash, different people like different games.
I know he's not attacking me because I don't actually like Shenmue myself, but he definitely attacked Shenmue fans. He's gone on more than one rant about Shenmue and the fanbase. He really, really doesn't like them and wants it to be known.
>>340715601

>being excited about something makes you tryhard
you are such a sad faggot
Does anyone else remember Invisible Walls with shane and that British dude?
>>340717821
Yes.
There's two podcasts now
Maydoff and his "podcast network" and dick with his patreon podcast. Neither are as good as BPU. At least Dick isn't LITERALLY debating with himself though.
>>340717961
Yeah I saw, it's a shame. Dick needs to be around to call out maddox on his cuckery.
le gets overly excited man
>>340711905
Only kind of like him at Paxamanias. Otherwise he tries too hard.
>>340709091
Probably the ones that flipped out over a remake and a Kickstarter
>>340715183
Old Games Show was alright, and if you're premium Game Tapes 3 is also a quality watch.
>>340717959
yeah, I remember, honestly it was a pretty good podcast overall, I also used to listen to ebc that was also hosted on gt
but they ain't got shit on the bombcast, would love if bosman somehow joined up with the giantbomb guys, I liked his videos that he did on his solo youtube channel
>>340718221
Do people actually react this way to things? I don't think i've ever even been half this excited
>>340715183
I like the Hitmen videos

>le "entitled" man
>based
>>340710207
are you suggesting hes an sjw or something
thats a totally reasonable stance
>>340709523
If my mind serves correct. But I think part of the reason GT was jumping around like a bunch of fans was because one of them made a hail merry bet on that Shenmune reboot.
>>340710207
He's not wrong
>>340718353
hello newfriend, you don't seem to know that colin was the cunt who invented the term 'entitled gamer'

I like both and think anyone could watch either and it's fine.
>E3 with EZA
No doubt they will overreact to some announcements but even then their enthusiasm is infectious.
>>340718743
I like GT but I hated their overreacting at the Shenmue and FF7 announcement
>>340718783
EZA? What is their relation with RZA and/or GZA?
>>340718618
Not even that, but I believe Shenmue 3 was even a thing Huber always fucking places a gag bet on happening, and then last year it actually fucking happened for once. Imagine /v/'s reaction to Half Life 3 finally getting an official announcement. That's what happened with Huber.
>>340718871
foley artist on the man with the iron fists.
I like Huber, he's a cool guy, even ran into him when I was walking around cali, but he's a prime example of what's wrong with the gaming industry
hyped for everything, even if its utter shit or just a rehash and doesn't want change to his games. people like him are a poison to the gaming industry
>>340719021
I agree partially. He is a bit too optimistic I guess.
He still has some points that I agree with on the podcast sometimes and he's pretty great in the tabletop videos.
>>340719021
I see what you mean.
I have no fucking idea how he's excited for God of War 4, or how anyone could be at this point.
>>340712002
People don't, kinda funny are only relevant as they are burning through all their favours in the industry
Just go look at their view count, complete nobodies get more views yet they aren't getting awards
>>340710207
You could say that about any game that has skins. People like to play dress up with their polygonal dolls - the real problem he has with it is that in DoA they're half naked.
Why does anyone watch GB any more?
It's just a bunch of depressed old fat guys who don't seem to really like games any more and occasionally get a bit sjw. You have to be the biggest fanboy to be stuck around still
>>340719276
>kinda funny are only relevant as they are burning through all their favours in the industry
this so much, I'm glad other people noticed

fuck off
>>340719432
Mostly out of habit/hoping it will get better.
Neither will happen since Vinny doesnt want to move back to San Fran (good for him) and Ryan is MIA.

Shenmue is kinda an exception though with context. It just seemed like a pipe dream till that moment.
>>340720214
I stopped watching after the first stream.
I imagine it's just him interacting with the twitch streamers. Its not like he'll ever beat Woz.
And I don't care for the community video they upload every month. I feel bad for Brandon for having to upload a half hour of irrelevant opinions of patrons.

>>340718310
Shenmue 3 being announced was literally his dream game coming true. It's like having your dream game getting announced when all hope is lost but you kept on believing anyways for that one day it'll happen.
Don't you feel like that anymore?

I don't think she's anyone in particular.
From what I remember of that stream it was a bunch of randos as well as devs/journalists who were there too, so a good number of the people performing on stage weren't anyone notable.
>>340719021
He's excited and sees the potential in every game. He shits on games he dislikes half the time too, you can see him tune out on some games they play when they stream sometimes.
Also when was the last time you've seen people in the gaming industry actually getting excited for games again? Pretty sure that most people in gaming are all cynical like on /v/, it's good to have optimism for once.

>>340709523

If you actually watched shit besides those reactions, they were calm and collected, they were just excited because they were passionate about FF7R, TLG and Shenmue 3
Huber absolutely loves Shenmue
HOL UP
>>340721153
Its a personality driven business for the most part. Unless you're grandfathered into it like an alex navarro type who should be kept away from any microphone but isnt because Jeff likes him for whatever reason.

How is this any different than this board spamming
>HAHA PS4 FINALLY HAS GAMES
>HAHA PS4 STILL HAS NO GAMES
I like both groups but I'm going to be watching the conferences raw.
I really dont' care for anyone's live reactions or commentary to the announcements.
Post conference coverage will be tough I guess. Leaning more towards EZA because they aren't Austin or Austin or Patrick or Dan.
I hope Ian is too busy to be on the panels.
Speaking of Giant Bomb - can anyone tell what the point of E3 Judges Awards are? Every year Jeff goes away for a week to give an award to something that - for the last few years - has usually been an interactive bullshot.
>>340722135
it's not you daft cunt, that's why it's so cringeworthy and wrong
>>340714305
At the beginning of the month some transactions don't go through so the number changes to reflect that.
>>340722217
>can anyone tell what the point of E3 Judges Awards are?
They're the people who say what games can say they won E3 awards and print it on their covers. Titanfall won 8 million E3 awards, must be good, lads.
>>340722217
it's a prestige thing, they get the main guys behind the biggest sites to give out awards, also Jeff does the whole CBS tv and radio interviews, it's basically something for the mainstream so that the wall street journal can say 'this game received this many E3 judges awards'
>>340722217
Judges week is where journalists are shown new games that are coming out in order to give awards so they can get BEST OF E3 that game companies love to show off like Evolve.
>>340722217
It lets the different bloggers and news outlets preview the games ahead of time as well as doing the whole "BEST OF SHOW 80+ AWARDS" shit some games put on their box art and in trailers.
>>340722421
yeah, one of the main reason jeff goes is to get extra time with the games and to get a chance to play more of them
>>340718310
Huber seems like the biggest extrovert of the group. He's confident and outgoing for one, and Shenmue 3 was his dream game.
tfw geoff keighley jumped ship just at the right time from GT and is the man in charge of the whole Youtube E3 coverage
what a sly fucker
>>340722583
I think the groups reactions are entirely based on him
The people closest to him emphasise the most, knowing how much the franchise means to him, and react accordingly, none of them really care for shenmue
Also the fact shenmue was a bet among them increases hype higher
>>340722583
No he's weird, he loves sitting in the dark alone with headphones on watching movies and playing games. He says that's how he unwinds after a day at work. Like one time his friends got over to watch a movie, he gave them headphones and they watched it in the dark with both of them using their own headphones.

Unrelated to GB or EA, but related to E3:
Does anyone have a good site that updates all E3 info as it happens? I'm going to be missing the majority of the conferences Monday and would love an easy recap that's not shitposting on /v/ or the few articles that pop up on GB.
>>340721401
Bosman has some quirks like that, but he's also the best "gaming personality" around right now.

I usually just track Twitter throughout the day, but I'll second IGN since they usually have stuff up relatively fast.Polygonusually does a story stream thing that just lists out all the big news of the day for each conference if you're capable of not being an autist and having a panic attack cause they published another dumb opinion article.

As mildly entertaining some of these can be, I really have to question the mental state of people that have this many clips on-hand of the GB guys.
I dunno, I like watching GB mainly because of Jeff, but some fans get really weird about people they will never personally know.
>>340724281
yeah some of their fans are so fucking creepy
>>340724281
Giantbomb fans are weird when Giantbomb themselves are just old, cynical and SJW who always look like they dont want to be there. Why would anyone be entertained by that?
>>340724281
The reason is the website's culture. The harsh moderation means only the biggest suck ups stick around and they feel the need to prove how much they love GB
>>340709091
The trend of over reacting to shit like this is getting on my nerves. I can understand that you want to appeal to your audience but the way those cunts were acting made my cringe.
GB act way more realistically in these situations. If my dream game got announced tomorrow I wouldnt yell and scream and run around like a dick head.
If a big game gets announced at E3 and it ends with something like "and it will be on sale tonight!" then you might get a bit more of a reaction out of me but when these companies come out and announce something that is due to release YEARS after the announcement it hardly warrants that kind of reaction.
The FFVII remake announcement was cool but we arent getting the full game for literally years with the episodic structure. Im not going to jump out of my chair and yell "I cant wait to play that in 5 years!!"
>>340724461
because I've been watching jeff, brad, vinny and ryan since 2001, because they're well connected in the industry and they've got a pretty good grasp on things, they keep it real and they don't bullshit me

Didn't they all defend Alison Rapp while avoiding the issue she was selling her holes?
GB is as bad as the rest of games media
I'm getting tired of cynicism.
>>340724675
I dunno, anon. They recently bullshitted everyone with their whole lengthy Allison Rapp defense.
Of course they also never uttered another peep about it after it was revealed that Rapp's side job was being an escort.
>>340724830
both dan and austin are cancer so it's ok
>>340725026
And before that they were bitching about Quiet for ages.
GB has kept it real for a long time
>>340725026
>>340724908
If I recall they defend other SJWs and journalists for their shit all the time.
>>340724908
yes.
and they also cried when their friends were blackballed at kotaku by bethesda.
Issues they honestly should have just not addressed at all imho
TechRaptor is the only news source I trust, the ONLY site with a full-blown, lawyer-vetted ethics policy.
>>340710123
Cause they're all mostly friends and they don't give a fuck about some diversity quota for now at least. They do have a fag, tho
>>340725154

Jeff does the bare minimum to keep shit like this off of his back, aka lip-service. It's obvious that he doesn't care.
>>340725839
He could have just ignored it then, what he really means is
>Please look at me I'm pushing your rhetoric, can I be in your cool kids club?
>>340726039
>It's obvious that he doesn't care.
That age they spent complaining about quiet on the podcast sure could have fooled me
>>340725167
From what I can tell, they're pretty much guaranteed to talk at length about anything Klepek writes about at Kotaku. Their community also acts as if Klepek still works at GB.
Hell, just in their most recent podcast, they answered an e-mail explaining that pretty much all of games journalism is a single friend group instead of being competing outlets.
>>340723352

wow..... what the fuck....... why didn't he just call them an ugly mutilated dick tranny and tell them to fuck off......... that's how conflict resolution works in the real world, hehe
>>340726039
these kids don't realize that GB isn't a side project on youtube with 7.000 views per video, it's a CBS owned multumillion dollar gaming company venture, jeff is in charge there and he's the boss of 20+ people who work for him, he's responsible for families, lives and he has a obligation to the guys above him
he can't just go full YOLO and say 'le fuck wyminz and niggers', he lives in the real world and has to be smart and about everything
>>340726167
You mean you thought Quiet was such an amazing design of a character? I'd rather have you say you like Joosten rather than Quiet. I love Kojima's pervertedness, but keep them as easter eggs. I wouldn't want a strip dance in my mission hub either.

Oh no, she has her boobs out and you can see her butt. Such a shocking thing to do in a video game it really needs so much more than a passing comment if you dislike it

Might as well keep a thread open when that happens, this is EZA's first E3 after all.

>>340726758
Something you should realise is that peoples issue with that kind of thing isn't always about social justice. I watch porn. Lots of it. I enjoy slapping and women choking on cock so hard they cry in porn, it's good stuff.
I don't like highly sexualised character designs or nudity in TV show though. There are two main reasons I don't like it.
1. I find it insulting. When I want porn and sexy time I know where to get it and will nearly every days, sometimes two or three times. I do not need it in my TV shows or my video games, that's not why I'm there and its annoying. It's basically the creator calling you a moron.
>"Hahaha these idiots will watch anything with a pair of tits in! Put her in less clothes we've gotta get these slackjawed idiots in here."
>"Aw gee I just don't get whats happening in this show but I love me some titties, man I just watch this for tits and ass ya know bro?"
I'm not so unstoppably horny or retarded that everything I do revolves around sexy women.
2. I think it just looks dumb and rarely make sense for the characters to dress that way. It's just nonsensical and harms the credibility of the world, story and characters.

Sounds like you have a real issue with repressing your feelings, especially if you like chocking in porn but find nudity else where insulting. This line especially
> It's basically the creator calling you a moron.
makes you seem like a proper nut, if someone slightly pushes a sexual urge they are insulting you? Maybe they are just appealing to it which is no different than appealing to other urges or feelings
> I think it just looks dumb and rarely make sense for the characters to dress that way
Maybe some works are meant to be silly, have silly moments or be outlandish, you know like Kojima games do in most aspects

You're way off base there with that post buddy. It's actually pretty simple. Time for a classic /v/ food analogy!
I like ice cream. I don't want ice cream for every meal. I don't want ice cream with my steak. I don't want ice cream in my burrito. I don't want ice cream in every meal I have. It's a simple pleasure that I'll occasionally treat myself by indulging in.
If someone assumes that all I want is ice cream and doesn't give me the credit to think that I might like a variety of meals of different complexities and tastes then they're insulting me. If someone assumes that I could never enjoy a sophisticated meal if they don't also put ice cream in to hold my interest they're insulting me.
Just because I enjoy porn doesn't mean I want T&A and nudity 24/7. And if someone assumes I'll lose interest in a piece of media because there aren't enough nekkid womenz in it they're calling me an idiot.

>>340730028
And like every food analogy on /v/ it is nonsensical when it comes to the actual issue. There is a big difference to being force fed ice cream and just seeing some titties and then on with the rest of the game.
>If someone assumes that all I want is ice cream and doesn't give me the credit to think that I might like a variety of meals of different complexities and tastes then they're insulting me
This bit really fails. You are not being given only ice cream/boobs, it is a small part of some games and a larger part of others which you have a choice to play. Someone putting more in certain games is still not an insult, if the dev likes that aspects, thinks it adds something they want or think the player will like that then they will add it just like any aspect. This is the same for literally every aspect. The whole porn =/= insult part still makes no sense
>If someone assumes that I could never enjoy a sophisticated meal if they don't also put ice cream
That is your own assumption, there are a multitude of reasons outside that and again you as a consumer have a choice to buy games that have the aspects in it which appeal to you. You are the one with the issue here that constantly assumes boobs means insulting you

The trend of being a cynical cunt about everything like GB is getting on my nerves. I can understand that you want to appeal to contrarian NEETs, but the way those cunts were acting made me cringe.
EZA act way more realistically in these situations. If I bet on an obscure franchise that clearly means a lot to me being revived every year, knowing full well that it's a one in a million chance, only to have it finally be announced, I would yell and scream like a dickhead.
If EA spend 30 minutes on sports games at E3 and it ends with something like "and you can play it FIRST..." then I might be a miserable, jaded, fat fuck who shits on things for cool kid contrarian points, but when these companies come out and announce the revival of a beloved franchise whose fans all thought was dead and buried it hardly warrants that kind of shitty detachment.
The FFVII remake announcement was cool. I'm not going to slouch over in my chair and make snide comments when I'm genuinely excited.
>>340730309
Senran Kagura series
Dead or Alive series
Metal Gear series
All games feature these and are notable aspects that people enjoy about them, even being main talking points at times and games like Dead or Alive getting spin offs that focus more on the lewd aspects. That includes mechanics, story moments, impressive engine technology and style of the games. The fact you think nudity can't be used like this makes you pretty childish
>>340730309
The Borgias: without nudity or the ability to have nudity, the debauchery that the show is meant to present are less so.
Game of Thrones: the same as above.
Utena & Evangelion: tends to show the adolescent mind focuses on what it will focus on, and also the darkness of it.
Ranma: comedy is a part of the story. And it's a part of the difference between men and women, they Ramna is a guy and more comfortable with it while the actual women aren't.

You've assumed nudity/sexual themes can only be something used to pander and that this pandering can only be a negative and for stupid people
That is incorrect
>>340730748
Shitty examples, wouldn't change a tiny thing about gameplay
>>340730785
>got
>not having gratuitous nudity
Lmao, get a brain and like I said, some is still fine to get your point across
And I meant 3 in total(one game, two movies or 3 games or 3 movies)
Let's agree to disagree, it's not like your fanservice bs and you being able to watch shitty movies just to see some titties will be made unavailable to you anytime soon
>>340730936
quiet was pandering
>>340730986
Good gameplay is pandering
>>340730748
>spin offs that focus more on the lewd aspects. That includes mechanics, story moments, impressive engine technology and style of the games. The fact you think nudity can't be used like this makes you pretty childish
You obviously can't read, a game focused on looking at half naked women is not what I meant, no surprise that a fanservice-loving mong such as yourself can't comprehend simple posts
>>340730727
This.
And the problem is that this kind of cynical detachment is the tone in pretty much all of their stuff now.
The podcast went from something that was legitimately funny in the early years, in large part because the Ryan-Jeff-Vinny trio worked so well it turned the show into more of a comedy than videogame podcasts.
Now it's just sarcasm and forced laughter. And sarcasm is probably the lowest and laziest form of comedy there is.
>>340730981
Except removing it damages the message and theme of the things. Not ALLOWING nudity restricts creativity. It's like removing the gravure section from TMS#FE. Because it doesn't allow bikinis, it removes the message and the point. And if you don't get that point, go watch Perfect Blue to understand the idol circuit.
The point of GOT is that is mature and 'real' and nudity and sex is a part of it's way to show that. If it didn't have that, and establish it's world like that, it wouldn't be as effective as it is.
I'm not the guy you were arguing with originally, I don't give a fuck about Quiet, but the assertion that ~lol nudity baaad pandering~ is fucking retarded.
>>340730981
>wouldn't change a tiny thing about gameplay
The section where Raiden is walking around nude clutching his balls wouldn't change at all if he wasn't buck naked? The gameplay would be the same and the whole weirdness of the section would have the same impact and be as memorable?
>>340731139
And you seem to not be able to understand the point at all. The lewd aspects has informed the game greatly as it is a popular aspect, this will lead to stuff like how they have the characters animate and act to appeal more sexy as it is an aspect people like. It informs how they design characters and how they design stuff in the soft engine. It has a larger impact that you seem to realise.
DoA would not have made many of the same design choices if it weren't for sexual themes

Any enthusiasm for either of these games is an overreaction.

i disagree, a large portion of them are trying to sound super educated and intellectual when spouting their shit opinions.
>>340712630
Women totally advocate for more fire fighters. Just heaven fucking help you if you think they should also be able to do little things like actually rescue people from fires... that shit's sexist, yo. How dare you insist that beautiful snowflake be able to carry a man out of a burning building.
You're dead on about the coal miners, though. I come from a family tree with a lot of miners in it, and you will never, ever hear a stink raised about not letting enough women do the job.
>>340730160
There is not one shred of doubt in my mind that Austin has let a woman peg him with a strap-on before. I could easily see that upgraded to actual lady penis up the butthole. In fact, the more I think about it, the more obvious it is.
>>340709091
Giant bomb is trash
Easy allies is God tier
>>340733573
Yep. I'm absolutely for more female firefighters, provided that they pass the same exact physical fitness tests that the men are required to pass. Unfortunately this is where they start making excuses which is sexist on the face of it.

I actually think Austin is alright. He even commented on the Giant Bomb/GT reactions in an amusing way.
His manboner for Vinny is kinda awkward to watch sometimes though.

>>340734460
I don't think Austin has been with a woman.
I can't believe you are having a thread about other people's reactions to commercials.
Why do you need reaction videos? Have you become incapable of experiencing emotion yourself?
Easy Allies is so fucking white bread and I could not give less of a shit about 7 interchangeable white guys opinions.
At least with Giantbomb you have Vinny and Jeff who knows tons of stuff about the industry and have actual personalities.
Why does /v/ dickride Giant Bomb? They love and shill call of duty and halo constantly. They hate japanese games. They're sjw's. Literally why the fuck does /v/ trust them? Why do you like them? None of their personalities are even appealing, they're boring as shit, they have barely any emotion in anything they say, they're barely articulate. I have no fucking clue why anybody gives them any attention whatsoever.
>>340736847
>all sex,/nude scenes=gratuitous

you are pulling shit out of your ass so hard, they all said they were blown away by the support and werent expecting much from the start only to break records, they dont care about the studio now and said they think they will get there in due time one way or another even if the patreon doesnt work out

>>340728895
I agree with you 100%, i love myself some sexy bitches but when a show tries to pander to that audience it always comes off as low hanging fruit and at worse times distracting. Sexualization can be done right my favorite show of all time is welcome to the nhk and that show without the sexual implications just isnt as good a show overall, but when its shit like parading a actress around in the nude all the time or always going off about sex for the entire fucking show or movie its just a turn off.
frankly though i rare have ever seen those types of shows as mysoginistic nor games like that, but the few games i would say "yeah thats actually kind of mysoginistic" wind up being games praised by progressives and sjw's are being empowering, like metroid other M is literally a game where they turn samus into a fucking dog who will only do things if her master tells her, how the flying fuck do tumblrites love that game.
>>340738165

>Gives Uncharted 4 perfect score
To be fair, Giant Bomb operates on a 5 star system, with no half-stars being allowed. Mathematically 5/5 = 100/100, but in terms of a review it has slightly different connotations.
>>340738341
>pander
>low hanging fruit
Sounds like you are just insecure and can't accept what other people like. As this thread showed any aspect can be called pandering, cause everything is something that appeals to someone thus "pandering" to them
>>340738287
yes dan ryckert is awful and him as well as ryans death essentially ruined giant bomb. i find it difficult to watch any content with him in.
i've been going back and just watching old live shows back when ryan was alive and its so refreshing, you forget how much better it was when they could actually be funny with vinny and ryan. klepek wasn't even that annoying for a lot of this time there but even at his worst later on i'd take him over dan.
How jaded do you need to be t think huber's shenmue 3 reaction is fake, especially when given the context of the situation
>kyle and huber are both bros who make bets over everything and force the losers into doing something embarrassing
>have a personnel bet everytime that is made only for your biggest hope or dream that wil never happen, 1 in a million chance
>huber bets for shenmue 3 that year knowing full well it will never happen
>suddenly shenmue orchestral theme starts playing and he loses his shit at the 1-2 combo of 10 years of hopeless waiting plus 1 luckily timed bet he had no faith in
They even had a part on their newest podcast where huber himself was saying there will probably never be another game that will get him to react that way.

Thats just an oxymoron, pandering can be pandering upon a universal scale and just cause some people eat it up doesnt change its intention towards a low hanging fruit, to love ru is pandering incarnate and it has die hard fans that eagerly await it, doesnt make it anything more than low hanging fruit aiming for the softcore porn audience
>>340738774

See, there you go again. You look down on an aspect so it can only be bad, how dare this certain aspect appeal to certain people in a sexual way!
>>340738774
Huber didn't just bring shenmue up for the e3 2015 bets. He's brought it up ever since he started appearing on GT around 2011. He's always been known as the shenmue guy.
>>340738821
eehhhh not really what i was going for, im more referring to in television or movies adding in sexualized situations for really no reason, it frankly applies to both men and female actors and they are both quite annoying.
like take that looper movie for example, its a normal sci fi crime drama movie but then theres that one weird out of place scene in the first 10 minutes where that blonde girl who has almost no purpose in the story comes out naked doing a sexy dance, she was as fuck from my memory but it was such a why scene in a movie that really had no need for such a scene especially when it didnt lead into anything. Unrelated but the 2nd half of this movie was garb
>>340738908
now your just pulling something out of no where, im so optimistic and happy about where gaming is going right now even with some wild card factors that worry me like the ps4k. Jrpgs are making a big comeback, square enix is good again, devil may cry 5 is pretty much happening status, shenmue fucking 3, alot of new games like horizon and for honor peaked my interest ten fold, asia english releases are becoming a mainstay allowing the likes of more gundam breaker 3 type deals, tales of berseria looks like everything tales has been missing since vesperia,
frankly the only thing my faith and optimism is shaken on is nintendo's future cause i dont know what the fuck they are doing now, and i hope for a comeback cause super mario 3d land is a masterpiece and i adored donkey kong tropical freeze.
>>340739326
woops i fucked up here, i thought you replied to this statement >>340738897 not >>340738774
>>340709523
I think something that gets left out of this conversation a lot is that one of the GT guys really, really fucking loves Shenmue a lot and in various videos had been basically praying for literally anything Shenmue related to show up at any press conference (TGS, gamescom, previous E3's etc.) for years in their other videos so seeing it actually happen is basically a minor miracle.
As for why the rest got excited with him, I mean excitement and pure joy is contagious. They know how badly he wanted it so seeing it happen must have made them happy as well.
You could argue that the reaction to the FF7 Remake doesn't have that excuse and is unjustified and if you believe that, that's fine, but it's still a really huge deal and something that the world at large had been clamoring for since the PS2 days. I wouldn't say you're a horrible person if you weren't climbing on your chair in excitement or anything like that but I can't imagine how jaded I'd have to be to hear news like that and just be bored out of my mind and spend the time complaining about HD remasters. It honestly reminds me of how I saw people just whining about "muh swordsmen" when Cloud was announced for Smash 4. That's a pipe dream nobody saw coming, the kinda shit that wasn't even joked about anymore because everyone knew it'd never happen and making fun of people wanting it got played out.
>>340739117
yeah i dont mean to say he only just brought it up then, but the final bets probably played a part of the reaction as he had already likley given up by that point like he said he did with half life 3
>>340738561

Thats sounds a bit on the villainous side. Did you skip out of PAX and tie a woman to a railroad?

I think Jeff's got it wrong when he thinks people complain that their content isn't scheduled enough.
What people are complaining about is how they're paying a subscription but get weeks with 2 quick looks of random kickstarter shit to watch and with nothing on the weekend.
It looks bad when there are let's players and youtubers with better work ethics than your CBS owned company.
Regardless of his personal politics, Austin is entertaining enough in GBE content. He basically saved them. Vinny and Alex doing a two man thing was not working at all, and every time they have to go back to that when he's out of the office the content is much lesser for it. However, I cannot forgive him for attempting to turn Giant Bomb into Kotaku 2.0 with the guest articles. Giant Bomb is about the personalities of the staff on video, not about blog entries by randos about loading up their dead mom's save files.
Are you looking forward to Alex 'Black hole for fun' Navarro and Danny riding with Jeff to e3?
