The thing is pretty much anything is fun with a group of friends with you... Games should be amazing on their own even by yourself thats how u know its good..
Colin, as a fellow champion of Castlevania: Lords of Shadow, I was shocked that you didn't mention the disappointment that was Lords of Shadow 2. I realize that The Order is fresh but we all knew going in that there were risks and and it could be a potential disappointment. However, Lords of Shadow was so good, it was alarming that Konami could fuck things up so bad and basically kill that franchise. What say you, Das Colin?
Great episode, Alfredo did a nice job too! Resident Evil HD Remake, Homeworld Remastered & Helldivers are the only three new games i've played so far this year - and i'd rate my experience with them in that order (assuming we count RE as a new game).
Watch Dogs didn't force you to play that way. There was an option setting to turn that completely off; meaning no one could invade your game. It takes all of 5 seconds to turn the option off. I actually quite enjoyed that gameplay feature. The cat and mouse hacking games were quite fun.
Top 3 games of the year so far: 1. Life Is Strange 2. BloodBorne 3. Dying Light So far its not been a good year for games, but I hope Uncharted 4 and Batman: Arkham Knight picking things up Disappoints: The Order: 1886
***** Yeah that bottle level was gruesome, and they're trying to make Uncharted 60FPS, the same reason why The Last Of Us had to be delayed. Same studio too so I trust they're doing the right things.
Akaash Shukla Evolve is every AAA shooter combined with the largest TF2 knockoffs ever combined with the in-game purchases of Candy Crush.If the price was $20, not so TF2 wanna be classes, not as many unbalanced in-game purchases, then, sure.
If you guys could put a brief table of contents in the description in the longer videos that would be helpful. For when we don't have time to watch the full thing we could skip to the parts we're interested in hearing. It would also help since you split up your vids before releasing the full one, so we'd know what we've already heard because within the table of contents you could also show where part 1, 2, 3, and 4 start and end as well. Currently we have to just randomly skip around and try and figure out where they start and end.
Silent Angel But you still don't know where each part stops and ends. Assuming you could remember which parts you watched and what they were saying at the beginning or end of each part, you'd still have to jump around to find the next part. Adding a table of contents would make the process simple.
chertsy y surely you just pick the topic from the videos as they put up each topic individually anyway :S so you don't need to know when they stop and start because they have already done it so you don't need to watch the full show
Sean Berry You have to scroll around a lot to find what you're looking for or get to the part you haven't seen and without a table of contents it makes that difficult.
So far I'm loving Bloodborne and may I say something about The Order 1886. It would be awesome if the same people that design the combat system in Bloodborne, came to Ready At Dawn. And help them design a new combat system for the sequel to The Order. That would be badass.
One big issue with Destiny is that levels 20-27 are a complete wall. A full set of Dark Below rares is maybe level 24 armor, then it comes down to getting legendary/exotic gear so that you can then play the level 30 weekly and the nightfall, so that you can then run Crota's End for the raid armor.
MCC was extremely disappointing, I purchased an xb1 with just that game and the two asscreeds and was only saved by buying forza 5 onsale randomly while waiting for the shipping .. Few of my friends all got it to co op and BROKEN. Its hard to get into it , Common free Reach..
I think TitanFall did actually really good for it being only on two plats. It also released a lot of content that was FREE which a lot of these other companies don't do. They also fixed the match making....everytime I go on (PC) it doesn't take long.
i think they where being bold, at the end, developers gain experience, and if they innovate games infrastructure even if we don't like it today how it plays out, it will evolve and someone will get it right eventually. Social Media keeps moving forward, and everyone wants a piece of free marketing, it is understandable from a bussiness point of view for companies to develop and research on how to make the games seamlessly include the social media streams. But like i said we are in times of beta testing, once a company gets it right eventually every other company will follow. PS: And remember BECAUSE of social media you guys got to quit your jobs and do what you like best, why cant any other company can exploit it too? If you guys keep going forward which i think you are, eventually KF will be a company too, and so the cycle continues!
Also, where can i find a schedule of the Kind of funny activities? I'm a Patreon supporter and get notices but don't really know where to find an schedule, if there is one, thanks guys
I just hate the fact that when AC Unity came out, so much of the game was tied to online components. Even though I had satisfied all the conditions on all of the additional applications outside of the actual games, those services were broken and I didn't get the full experience. Sure it's fixed now but I've beaten the game and am now over it. I missed out. Dragonball Xenoverse forces you to try to connect to a server multiple times before it finally launches the single player mode which is what I wanted in the first place. Time wasted.
Hope colin realizes that in watch dogs you can turn all things multiplayer offline including people randomly dropping in your game. They say it like you cant do that
elandys84 and being forced to play a certain way with different characters, the 2 characters at once thing is bloody awful, its like being asked to re-learn the rules for each stage, and instead of extra powers they feel like disabilities. If ever there was a game where they shouldn't have tried to innovate and just give us the same again, this was it.
Another huge issue with the gaming community is the constant spread of misinformation! You weren't forced to interact with other players on Watch dogs... it qas an option for you to turn on/off.
original titanfall was great until everyone got in a titan, it becomes a totally different game with different tactics. I actually want a single player campaign as well. its funny how sony has the most to fix out of all 3 console makers, yet they have managed to sell a lot of systems. I think as much as sony has a strong first party studio....i think they are still lacking. They need more studio's and more first party ip's. They can use a lot more first party jrpgs on their system and a non gorilla fps.
Hi guys, i really like your stuff and I'm proud to contribute, at least a couple of bucks n_nU, mmm, I agree with Colin, don't really fell the "Kinda .... Funny", hope you don't i keep the BEYOND :P, also, man, I'm doing my effort but also don't really feel Tim Gettys as a host bet hey, I don't really can think of something bad to say, I guess it's just my prejudice, I will keep updated with your stuff and an open mind :P, I think sooner or later I'll love everyone :P, jaja also I feel Alfredo is a great addition XD, jajaja keep up the great work guys, !BEYOND!
Alfredo's and idiot he should just stick to his twitch stream... He's too simple for a podcast he has trouble speaking his mind. Could be cause he's camera nervous idfk...
I don't get why people watch streams. I like the ones that I can participate with but just sitting and watching in my off time, no thanks. I'd rather play the game myself.
The point about Destiny being fun because of online integration... well what about this. Maybe if developers weren't annoying as fuck then Destiny would be an amazing single player game with an actual story, and just have MP and Raids be separate modes. But instead it's like "here's this lazy ass expensive game, and to make it fun make sure you bring some friends with you"
IGN has sucked for a while, I hope the good personalities over there move to better places. I would like to see Marty Sliva, Jared Petty, Brian Altano and Max Scoville to leave to somewhere better. I would love to see them in Gamespot videos for example.
***** I am a fan and supported them but it is unprofessional and looks unprofessional. They supposed to be top gaming journalists, but it looks terrible and poor for their image. They need to treat it as such
***** I watch them on UA-cam because it is CONVENIENT. I go to this site everyday. Greg's work with team fat, beyond, Up at Noon etc., has been great and for a cause has no relation to how you do your job, and oddly was more professional. I wonder why?Wearing socks in their position is absolutely unacceptable not to mention looks poor and your job is in MEDIA. MEDIA, where you are creating media and in journalism, where you're reporting on current events through MEDIA for people. You want to show a professional image - not a "slacker or I'm lounging image". You're reporting daily events to the PUBLIC, to everyday people, in FUCKING SOCKS. There is no doubt it turns people off, people like me. You and them need to grow up. When you're providing information and content to regular day people, act like you're a carrier of news and not I'm kicking my feet up on the coffee table. You don't see Anderson Cooper wearing socks, do you?
***** I'm not uptight or a scumbag actually. It's just when you're making a video that thousands of people will watch, and you want them to subscribe and follow your content, it is obvious wearing shoes looks better than wearing socks and your in the MEDIA business. As a fan, I'm offering constructive criticism.
***** It's not about following rules or norms. It's about perception and imagery. It's clear wearing shoes looks better than wearing socks to the general public. And there making videos. Put two and two together. Anderson Cooper would wear shoes because he needs to walk outside lol
***** I admit that was a bit aggressive and when I said that, that wasn't because of them and socks lol. It's just to be frank, I have not been enjoying their content as much as I thought I would. I wont get into that because it'll be too long but their whole thing is just off. To the name 'Kinda Funny', to Nick's awkward faces on camera trying to be funny, to on and on, I wont get into. I thought I would enjoy there content much more and no, it's not because there quirky. Greg has always been quirky
The thing is pretty much anything is fun with a group of friends with you... Games should be amazing on their own even by yourself thats how u know its good..
well said!

Colin is absolutely spot on when he is talking about game previews. I feel like reading a preview warps your expectations and clouds your judgement.
Watch Dogs didn't force you to play that way. There was an option setting to turn that completely off; meaning no one could invade your game. It takes all of 5 seconds to turn the option off.
I actually quite enjoyed that gameplay feature. The cat and mouse hacking games were quite fun.

The Movie Bugle Evolve?
Akaash Shukla Evolve is every AAA shooter combined with the largest TF2 knockoffs ever combined with the in-game purchases of Candy Crush.If the price was $20, not so TF2 wanna be classes, not as many unbalanced in-game purchases, then, sure.
Just curious on why the backdrop is always someone's corner of a wall rather than the flat side?

I think that's why they upload each topic one at a time before releasing it in full on Fridays....

lolol Greg: "NO, megaman. I'M good at Tetris"

You guys might as well hire Alfredo, and have him to the live stream with you guys!
Why can't I find this on iTunes yet?
Holy poopsicles Greg. Where did you get that awesome Junes top?!
MCC was extremely disappointing, I purchased an xb1 with just that game and the two asscreeds and was only saved by buying forza 5 onsale randomly while waiting for the shipping .. Few of my friends all got it to co op and BROKEN. Its hard to get into it , Common free Reach..
Are you dudes looking into maybe getting a PS4 app put together? or is this way too soon to happen?
I think TitanFall did actually really good for it being only on two plats. It also released a lot of content that was FREE which a lot of these other companies don't do. They also fixed the match making....everytime I go on (PC) it doesn't take long.
Majora's Mask is my favorite Zelda. Along with Link to the Past, and Wind Waker. Those are the only three I like.
Hey! Listen! This is not in the Gamescast playlist - almost missed out! :)
Daemon needs to work on KF and the final form is complete!

Greg! Is that a Persona 4 Junes shirt you're wearing?
Hope colin realizes that in watch dogs you can turn all things multiplayer offline including people randomly dropping in your game. They say it like you cant do that
Kinda funny deserves subs
Lighting is a bit weird in this episode. Nick fix it yet?
love seeing alfredo on this!
Best game of the year so far: Dying light.
Biggest disappointment: Hotline Miami 2
Bloodborne beats Dying Light in my opinion.
I wanna know how hotline Miami 2 was a failure....... Like at alllllll.
MrBlackout1926 They've over complicated the simplicity of what made the first game great, and even though i didnt hate it, im just disappointed.
Mike Dunkin Im dissapointed too. The level design is atrocious.
elandys84 and being forced to play a certain way with different characters, the 2 characters at once thing is bloody awful, its like being asked to re-learn the rules for each stage, and instead of extra powers they feel like disabilities. If ever there was a game where they shouldn't have tried to innovate and just give us the same again, this was it.
Colin & Greg do not wear shoes during casting... lol I wonder why
Jeff Miller They're at home. No need for shoes in your own house!
Another huge issue with the gaming community is the constant spread of misinformation! You weren't forced to interact with other players on Watch dogs... it qas an option for you to turn on/off.

Where is The Producer/Seducer? I haven't seem him in ages! Did he quit Kinda Funny guys?!
He's still on the squad! He's busy producing and seducing!
He's never on the Gamescast
Next episode. No shirts.
You guys have a Patreon page? I had no idea.
Hi guys, i really like your stuff and I'm proud to contribute, at least a couple of bucks n_nU, mmm, I agree with Colin, don't really fell the "Kinda ....

What was Alfredo a pro gamer at?
I don't know how I feel about Alfredo being on. I don't dislike him, but it's different.
Alfredo's and idiot he should just stick to his twitch stream... He's too simple for a podcast he has trouble speaking his mind. Could be cause he's camera nervous idfk...
Don't worry, Colin. I'm starting to lose touch with what's cool too. I can't even figure out how to watch a twitch video.
SYNERGY!
Respawn Entertainment need to do better then that because they are better then anyone FPS Developers out there.
I don't get why people watch streams. I like the ones that I can participate with but just sitting and watching in my off time, no thanks. I'd rather play the game myself.
Nice water bottle Colin. Sony has the best exclusive merch why don't they sell it to the public!
I love this show.... but content is like 2+weeks old. At e3 am i not gonna be able to hear your take till the e3 buzz is so far past me?
alfredo = tim
they're almost the same person
The point about Destiny being fun because of online integration... well what about this. Maybe if developers weren't annoying as fuck then Destiny would be an amazing single player game with an actual story, and just have MP and Raids be separate modes. But instead it's like "here's this lazy ass expensive game, and to make it fun make sure you bring some friends with you"
*I make hardcore videos*
*Warning: 18+ only*
Why is everyone quitting IGN, it's gonna suck now.
IGN has sucked for a while, I hope the good personalities over there move to better places. I would like to see Marty Sliva, Jared Petty, Brian Altano and Max Scoville to leave to somewhere better. I would love to see them in Gamespot videos for example.
Honestly the only IGN personalities keeping me around are Naomi, Andrea, and Max.
Why the fuck do they not have shoes on. I'm removing my Patreon support
