I love these guys, and this series.
It's my most frequently checked youtube channel, if not the only one I even load up every now and then at the same time as facepunch just to see if theres a new vid
Oh shit here it is killing Israphel!! [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eke7T5ytAWE[/media] But seriously what the fuck is this
I physically cannot get into this series, lord knows I've tried, but I just can't. I don't know why.
because you have no soul monster
maybe it's because they get so many things wrong, misname shit etc. That's my biggest pet peeve.
For the first like 20 episodes, they're actually fairly new to the game (Apparently)
[QUOTE=The very best;28815367]For the first like 20 episodes, they're actually fairly new to the game (Apparently)[/QUOTE] I've watched after that, and it still irks me. I don't find any of the jokes funny, either.
Monster

Psh, I just find it funny that they started playing and got sucked into this whole adventure thing seemingly by surprise. I mean, come on, there's no way that they knew about any of this beforehand! It's just really frigging epic. TVB, that's GMod, I believe.

Their reactions are very much natural and improvised.

Wow, that was a good watch. Thanks!
[QUOTE=Randdalf;28246189]Yeah I've seen that story stuff from the first season now, and it looks like they're genuinely going through a story that their friends have planned out for them. Which is awesome. I hope Minecraft eventually gets an adventure mode like this.[/QUOTE] It would be amazingly cool if you could build your own adventure, then share it with others.
I want friends like theirs
[QUOTE=JCDentonUNATCO;28830397]Their friends set up the whole adventure for them, they are put in the middle of it and told nothing, which keeps their reactions fresh.[/QUOTE] Its all staged. Lewis is nice enough to talk back when i harass him, so i found out the truth. All the other characters are played by people from their old wow guild and a few others

"It's all staged" can mean several things, care to extrapolate?
[QUOTE=Ross;28866547]"It's all staged" can mean several things, care to extrapolate?[/QUOTE] Of course, there has to be some sort of story, written by them. But some think that someone else writes the story and they sort of go with it, with only a foggy idea of what is gonna happen and they have genuine suprise. Some others think that they know all the surprises before they happen, having written the story themselves, so it's all staged and faked.
Well.... That fits. It also explains why they get distracted by small simple things, like just interacting with the "NPC" characters. They do a good job of going 'holy shit LOOK at THAT' though.
i don't really care if its staged or not,its entertaining and i like it
oh god, my sides, they burn. this is fucking hillarious. I haven't laughed like this in years.

They could've easely chased Israphel while he was alone, but decided it was a bad idea to do so. It was staged pretty badly. [editline]31st March 2011[/editline] But still, they're quite a fun to watch.
Yeah, you're right. "Do we chase?" "OF COURSE WE CHASE!" *weeklong break* "Uh so yeah he's a country away by now" :P Ah well, they're entertaining, that's what counts.
They've made it clear on multiple occasions that there is a team that builds most of the structures on the server and prepares most of the scenarios. I would still argue that Simon and Lewis aren't totally aware of what will happen, given how daft they can be. Regardless, calling it "fake" just doesn't seem right; they deserve more than that for all the effort which they have put into the series.

Some things are obviously kinda staged, but for the most part it seems like they have no idea what is going to happen, or what the characters will say. It seems it's more like they are being told what to do and what to look out for, without knowing what will happen upon doing what they're told.
