    With that comment that Johnny answered about him playing Video Games for the last 40 years, I would love if he started a series where he talked about each year from 81 til now of his memories of that year of games for him or with friends and family. What he picked up or was playing and or just kind of how that year was and what it meant to him. Would be really cool to see something like that.

    Johnny, I’ve been a fan for basically a decade. Much much respect to you for continuing to put out content like you are. I know it’s not easy, and recognize the effort it takes. Also respect to your wife for always being so supportive and making appearances. I really really look forward to your videos, so I guess I just want to say “thank you.” You’ve restored my passion for gaming more than once. Hope you and everyone are doing okay!

    I'm folding laundry listening to this. Ways to spend the time doing chores instead of gaming. Next up, dishes. After that, lunch and off to work. I know it's Sunday, but life goes on. I hardly have time to play games.
    I love Dan Brown, Michael Crichton, John Saul and Steven King. Sometime I read Tom Clancy. Presently reading IT. That's like a Bible.

    Hey Johnny, I've been watching you since your Gears of War 2 Launch video 12 years ago. I'm 24 now... Very thankful for all the stories you've shared over the years and I'm very proud of you and glad to have been able to see how much your life has changed over the years! Here's to many more 🙏

    To talk more about the question from sloth.
    I think that you being one of the first personalities that arose from the UA-cam's gaming movement really helped, but at the end of the day what always kept me watching was the fact that you and your friends were the first generation of true gamers. Sure, you can talk about the Atari days and asteroid, but that was the advent of gaming as a whole. Precursor to what it actually became. You and your friends are that subset of gen X that helped bring anime over to Canada and the States. Popularized JRPG's and filled Arcades in the 80's. The way that you've told your stories has always felt like you guys were coming straight out of the Sega and Nintendo commercials. It was always interesting for me to hear that from a first person perspective in fine detail. As I was born the year that the Snes came out, and you and your friends really reminded me of my older cousins growing up that I looked up to. That alone was nostalgic for me. Your channel has always had substance over others, and I think that is worth noting. You should give yourself a little more credit. Because not only were you one of the first, but you were one of the guys that raised the bar on content.

    I second Kim's recommendation to read everything by Patrick Rothfuss, which is only three (2.5 really) books at this point. It is fantasy that invokes childlike wonder even for someone of our age.

    I’m listening to this, vacuuming and I get to the part where you guys discussed how you share your hobbies.
    I stop, ask my wife what hobby she has that we should do together and she says “Read.”
    So…I’m reading Gone Girl now. Kinda excited. You guys are the best!

    5:25 If the guy really wanted to challenge Johnny he should've asked him "what is your favorite King of Fighters game?". He would be there for 10 minutes just going through them all.
    32:18 Kim is saying "of course! Mario!" but deep down she is really saying "PERSONA SERIES! ALL OF THEM!"

  • @erikofskullisland3987
    @erikofskullisland3987 2 роки тому +1

    I have a scrap of paper where I have written down every anime you have ever mentioned on the show. I've watched Otaku No Video because your story. One anime off the top of my head that you told me about that I really got to watch, if it's the only one I'll get to, I know has got to be Galaxy Express. Found you 2014 in a bad, lonely time where I was a vegetable, but watched all your stuff and been keeping up with it. You tell me about Phantasy Star, so bought 2-4 on Steam, and bunch of other games, Revenge of Shinobi and Streets of Rage. Loved 2, and even though I completely messed up and forgot to get Rudo right away, I almost feel like using only Nei the first half the game made the middle twist so much more impactful for me. (My brother started the video games in our house, on Genesis, got Sonic 2, Columns and Primal Rage, but skipped then right to FF8 on PS1, then from there, rpg maniac, even got into Dragon Warrior II, loved your story about skipping school for it). You tell me about Ys, so went on Steam and got Ys 1+2, Oath in Felghana, and Origins. Love it, runs like butter on my crap computer, and it's Ys. The temple of Salmon and Noltia music, absolutely amazing, love the shop music Syonin, too. (Also, you mentioned hating V, and I loved your story back in that one video, such a classic , relatable moment, wanted to play it so bad, played in Japanese, and couldn't get past the stupid lady, oh man so great, makes me laugh. Also found out oddly that Ys is actually a myth of an island off the coast of France where the princess was evil and got the island cursed and got it sunk). Then, you tell me about people like Victor Lucas and your Film Fury with him, and Gamesack and Ircha and GameDave, and I watch all their stuff. Thanks, John, for the good recommendations all around over the past 8 years. I got to see the movie as soon as I found the channel, really could tell it was a labor of love, and you tried to have fun with it and you try to be humble about it, and the whole show. God bless you and your family. As soon as I returned to college that year in 2014, I met a woman, and she made me realize a lot of things about life. She's long gone now, of course, but really made me think of how important it is to keep family going, and how it really is all one truly has. Uncertain times, sure, but wishing you all the best.

    I love how people think video games are just a thing someone will get tired of and be done with. My earliest gaming memory was playing Donkey Kong on the Atari 2600 back in 1984. I became obsessed with video games, with my obsession getting so much worse in 1987/1988, with the NES. I played games through my teen years with only a slight slowdown when I started having kids of my own.
    Looking back, games have always been a big part of my life. I can't imagine that ever changing.

    Love these videos! You are correct it’s so hard to get known in this industry. I have a phenomenal idea that is something no one else has done. I just need a few content creators to make it happen but I hope to make it happen soon! Maybe you and Kim will end up being involved who knows! 😁 great video, great channel, amazing people

    This was such a treat to listen to, honestly. It sounds cheesy, but I found the channel sometime in 2011-2012 when I was 11 or 12, and I grew up watching your guys' videos off and it has really become a comforting thing for me.
    Thank you guys for doing all that you do on UA-cam and for continuing on.
    Sending well-wishes from down south in Alabama!
    p.s., if I would have caught the Q&A posts in time, I probably would have asked some things like "How are things with the two of you and AlphaOmegaSin," and "Has Rob ever gotten the chance to make friends with Alpha?"

A lot of rpgs you talk about I've played or heard about before but there are lots of amazing animes I would not have watched if I hadn't seen them talked about on your show! I personally would love to see more anime episodes and more artbook/magazine/music episodes!

    Something my wife and I do to balance the relationship and hobbies is we do “hobby time”. Sometimes we’ll play a game together, I’ll play a game and she’ll read, she’ll watch one of her shows and I’ll play switch. That way we’re spending time together but still getting to do our hobbies.

    I am so sad i missed the q and a prompt. I'm also bummed John doesn't feel comfortable gushing about anime on the show, he's the single reason I've watched several old school animes. These Sunday videos are always a comfort as i watch them at the end of my weekend shifts which is usually about 30 to 35 hours between just Fri sat and sun.

    I have a book recommendation for Kim. The Realm of the Elderlings series by Robin Hobb. It's a phenomenal series composed of 3 trilogies and one quartet. I love the fact that it's character driven and the complexities of the relationships in the series is just superb, no other author has ever made me feel like a character is more than just a character but truly human. And her prose is just exquisite, truly remarkable. Definitely recommend 👌

    I've never been into anime other than Miyazaki and I started watching your channel for the games. So I wasn't really into those segments on animie or soundtracks. But after watching for so long I started slowly getting interested due to your passion for them. I've even bought several such as Cowboy Beebop and Ghost in tbe Shell. So I'd say keep going with them as you are introducing others into niche hobbies they would have never tried before.

    That "Bravely Default" ending that dragged out forever for Kim sounds like the experience I just had with one of the Legend of Heroes JRPGs. Loved the story, but after five of these Kiseki games I've noticed a pattern where when it gets closer to the end they will put multiple enemies you have to fight to get to the final boss at the end of multiple carbon-copy uninteresting, repetitive dungeons and it feels like my life is being wasted after a certain amount of going from one to another and another of these and fighting boring, time-consuming enemies every few steps of the way.

    Very VERY glad Kim brought up Name of the Wind. And as her #2 choice too. It's really really good.
