Good question!
Can someone give me an answer to this head scratcher?

where's their fucking e3 schedule

>>379508249
I guess they'll release it next Tuesday. I hope so, anyways.

>>379505610
I'm going to cancel my Premium subscription after E3. The E3 streams are always good.

But I just don't enjoy it like I used to. Ben is alright but Abby or whatever her name is is annoying.

I really like Ben.

>>379504623
really appreciative of her contributions of "I didn't play any games this week" on the beastcast

but hey, out of all the people with production experience who applied to the Beast crew, I'm sure none of them have any knowledge of video games as a secondary attribute

>>379509319
wtf abby is basically a non-entity with a nice radio voice when she does use it

ben is the absolute worst and makes the already shit bombcast physically unpleasant to listen to

>>379509778
At least they put her in the shit crew.

>>379505610
dude what, they are so insufferable around E3

Jeff especially, it's like he's completely oblivious to the fact that E3 has blown up in recent years with the general gaming public as opposed to getting smaller as he keeps saying.

the floor event is dissolving because who fucking cares about video game journalists nowadays, it's a much better means of communications to just broadcast a stage show across the world.

I swear Jeff is salty as fuck because he still feels compelled to actually travel to E3 even though it's all just an online experience nowadays

>People like Ben
He's quite literally the worst hire they could have made. He's Brad:Bad voice edition. He only seems alright because everyone else out west is a charismatic black hole. Compare him vs Vinny and Jeff or even Dan. The dynamic is actually entertaining instead of cringe as an ogre man vocal frys meme references.

>>379510161

>>379510062
E3 used to be the one place of the year where every developer and console manufacturer had to unite and shill. Nowadays, there are PAXes and conventions for each individual publisher and you can just put stuff out on the internet and get just as big a buzz. It has gotten to the point where people actually use the period before E3 to start releasing stuff.

That's what Jeff means. E3 is not nearly as relevant as it used to be.

>>379510581
Ben sucks but he's much more tolerable than Dan.

>>379513418
Both suck for different reasons, but I don't fall asleep when Dan is around, just occasionally get annoyed.

>>379513563
I don't fall asleep with either, I just turn it off. They're both so obnoxious.

>>379510581
>Hey we need a dude who does commentary on game footage and our podcast
>Let's get a tall freak with an unbearable voice

Ben's "partner" appears to be a tranny with short pink hair. God, at that point when you are playing along I guess you either know its a tranny and your fucking a dude or you are just blissfully oblivious and actually dont realize it.

The wrong guy died you guys.

>>379514569

I think Jeff sabotaged his own site. On purpose. I mean GB West needed someone after losing Dan and Drew, not to mention Vinny. And he hires someone who's annoying to listen to and is basically another Brad. Might as well not have hired anyone. And now the west has three sleepy boring guys and Jeff who sounds like he wants to die.

>Ben: I played game and-
>Brad: Didn't really like it, huh?
>Ben: No I liked it
>Jeff: But did you really?
>Ben: I guess not

>>379514967
It's because Austin, he cut and ran throwing all good will out the window. Jeff admitted that it burned the process badly. So he hired an old intern he can control instead of a personality he couldn't. Austin doomed the west by leaving the east.

If Abby and Ben were the ones they picked, I wouldn't want to see who else applied.

>>379509610

>is a video producer but doesn't even know if her TV is 1080p or not

Eh, it's not really a problem, as we've seen on the streams where Vinny wasn't on the control room, she's been doing fine.

>has trained as an improv artist yet never plays off of anyone or says anything funny

>is on a video game podcast but does not even play video games

These though, are a problem.

I have no problem with her being a really casual gamer, she was hired to be a video producer, not a content editor. And people quickly forget that Drew (aside from some niche games) is a casual gamer as well.

But if she's going to be in the podcast, she should at least be able to bounce off the comedy a lot more considering her improv background. I'm hoping it's just the beginner jitters and she gets more into it later on.

>>379512641
>E3 is not nearly as relevant as it used to be.

it's way more relevant now because millions of people worldwide watch the streams every year like some fiesta of games for a few days

conventions have never and will never be anywhere near as relevant as something like modern E3 because it's all about being able to get to a location

>>379516578

That wouldn't be too surprising. Though it depends on how long of a notice Austin gave before leaving.

Drew left too and he's been there for a while.

>>379517661
Austin legit took the Job last year mid E3 during their night shows and told them during. Used them as a springboard.

>>379505261

Wait really? All I've read is that he was already working with Vice before E3 and that's why he left only a week after E3.

>>379517134
What you don't understand is that there was a time where there were millions of people worldwide watching streams and listening to live blogs AND it was the only show in town with no PAXes and no Publisher-funded events. It was way more relevant then.

>>379517134
it's just turning into something else.

It used to be a showcase of everything new in games that year but as you're describing it's getting diluted with the publics input.

>>379519000
The majority of Jeff + Vinny content is fun.
Quick looks, E3 streams and the GOTY stuff.
Other than that, the site is dead.

like the "scientific" list of the best fighting games or whatever, it's supposed to be tongue and cheek and sciencey etc. but they're just doing the same shit they've always done. how about putting on some fake glasses and doctor's clothes or something.. SOMETHING.

the only good thing about GB around e3 is how many downvotes their videos get from normies who searching for reactions and takes on new titles

"they hated everything"
"why do people who play games for a living hate games"

lol. Jeff got super booty blasted over this on some random's podcast and said "we're not in the hype business", when that's not at all what people are saying. Cynical twat

>>379521804
they should just do more reviews. having to write reviews forced ALL of them to play a variety of games to completion, which made them more informed, they talked about those games more in depth and they even encouraged each other to finish it (spoiler podcasts), nowadays they barely finish any video games and play (or read tweets about them like Brad does all the time, he tries to figure out the 'zeitgeist' more than playing video games) a couple of minutes of goty contenders at the end of the year because of the discussions and nothing else

Other than that, she is inoffensive unless you're the kind of person that shitposts about Giant Bomb personalities because they are black or have a vagine.

I like Austin a lot when he's not being a pretentious fuck about vidya. He's pretty much dead to me at Waypoint because they don't do a lot of content in the vein of Giant Bomb's.

>>379527113
That's why he's not being paid to be on camera. They just force it on him just like they force the new girl into shit when she was hired to do Vinnys old job.

>>379527243

>If Abby and Ben were the ones they picked, I wouldn't want to see who else applied.
That's what bothers me the most. You know people with actual video producing experience who know shit about video games applied, and Abby is the one they went with. She has no experience in the job she's doing nor does she have any understanding of the subject matter. It's fucking crazy how many qualified people they must have passed up.

>>379527113
He used to be better.
He even did PR at Obsidian. Definitely not a job for an autist, even if it is for Nerverwinter 2.
And then on Screened and WMHH he was pretty normal.
His return after the CBS thing was...a dramatic change.

>>379526993
>>379527292
yeah i agree, this 20 year old girl who hasn't played a video game in over a decade was a perfect fit for a video game podcast with three 30+ year old guys

It took him years to get hired back by CBS after Whiskey Media got bought and broken up. There are a couple of videos that are months apart where they have Matt on camera in the CBS office because he was there that day being interviewed again. In one of them he looks utterly fed up with the whole situation.

he shits on e3 because it's just extra work for him and he knows most of the new titles before they're announced and if he doesn't that's OK but he's not exactly a big gaming enthusiast anymore either.

the people who go to e3 has dropped quite a bit but the viewers at home has skyrocketed, Jeff is just selectively leaving out that second part because he's trying to push the e3 thing is over so maybe he won't have to do it anymore

>>379529953
>Forgot Dan
fuck (but he's top of mid tier)

Austin isn't funny, unfortunately. I actually like him, but he isn't an appealing personality in front of a camera. I think he'd do better in a different medium or format.
I used to loathe Rorie until he became the engine driving half the conversations on West content. I mean, 50% of the time it's, "Hey guys, have you heard of this burrito place in San Francisco that no one gives a fuck about?" but at least it gets people fucking talking during UPF / premium shit.

He's literally been to all of them; too late to stop now.

I've never really understood the dislike for Alex. I think he gets preoccupied with particular opinions (GotY or otherwise), but he tends to be funny and likable. He's toned down on the SJW shit, too. It's been nice watching Yakuza because there's none of this shit >>379520361

ben i have a hard time dealing with. hes on camera all the time with his doppy face and voice and overall low energy. maybe 1/10 of his jokes lands or bounces well off the other members. almost everything he says also feels forced as fuck just so theres no silent air. maybe he'll get better, but he just rubs me the wrong way so far.

I honestly feel like Jeff's view on video games is kinda shitty. He thinks Nuts and Bolts is the best Banjo game, seems to enjoy shitting on any game that isn't a fighting game or a nostalgia trip from the Neo Geo era. I like you Jeff but sometimes, you kinda piss me off.

Ben worked with them before and likely won't be able to leave to somewhere better since he's unlikable. The mistake with Abbey seems to be putting her on the podcast.
