Better idea
Give into the Xbox Live Indie Games section and download the dumbest games you will ever find there. Like that baby born simulator
Too bad you couldn't do console games for the livestreams, you could have played Eternal Darkness Sanity's Requiem.
You should get a Wii and play Cozy Fire and Fireplacing back to back.
That'd be the best stream ever.
[QUOTE=legolover122;38417402]Stream MGS4.
I beg you.[/QUOTE]
Oh god that would be awful. I'm sure I'd be horrible at MGS4... or any of the MGS games, at that.

Horror games might have been tricky, as there seems to be a little delay between the game screen and the webcam. I would be screaming a second or two before it actually happened on scree. I'll try and fix that before the next stream.

I do have a Wii, and I have no idea what those things are.
Do you just build fires or something?

Like a true camp fire talk :v:

I figured some people wouldn't like it. I'm still trying to feel out how I want to handle shorter reviews, because there are games that I want to show off that don't warrant a full review.
What could I change to make the next one better for you?
I liked it.
I like it apart from the shortness of course.

The shortness is bittersweet. While it is a shorter video for you guys, which might not be too appealing, it takes me much less time to make. This means, when I'm overloaded with school, you guys won't have to wait a whole month for something new from me (like last time). I can also produce these and my full-length videos side by side. I think having a short format video will benefit everyone, really.
I liked everything but the voice. The voice gave it a sort of try-hard feel to it. I already get enough of that when I play Dota.
Yeah my only complaint is the voice. Maybe just go with the voice you use for normal reviews.

Fair enough.
I was channeling my inner Rex Kwon Do, but I can dial that down.
I laughed more than I should have at the 15 Euro Bucks joke :v:
I think too concentrated amount of swearing, wouldn't mind it otherwise.

You remind me of this.

Started out ok but got too much like a lamer BroTeam by the end. I'd love to see you pick up a quicker review form (maybe make it even shorter than 2 minutes) for some quick laughs, but don't force it.
Reminds me of JonTron

I like the voice
Well at least he is trying different things, if you got more ideas you should make like 3 experiment videos so people can vote on which new video serie they like the most
Just a thought
I watched both of your lego views. Very well put together. Felt it right in the nastolga.

Sorry for the late reply, but like many others have said it felt like a lame Bro-team
The weird "sort of" gruff voice + the excessive swearing just felt out of place compared to your other reviews (which use well, thought-out points usually with examples). I just felt like the humor wasn't really there.

I've gotten that comparison a few times, and while I see the similarities, it wasn't really what I was going for. I saw the two-minutes as more of a condensed boot camp of the game, with just enough time for me to give my opinion. I guess I was going for more of a drill-sergeant thing. Either way, it seems like some people liked it, and others didn't as far as the voice was concerned. I personally did two different recordings of the audio and liked the one I chose more, though I knew it was a risk. As for the swearing.. well, I wasn't really meaning to add more, it's just how I ended up writing. Maybe I just have a potty mouth.
I can't go too in depth in my points with this format, though, that's true. But the fact of the matter is that I don't think I could make an interesting video 8+ minutes long about Chivalry. There are a number of other games that fit in this category too, so I wanted develop a format that would let me make videos on them. Think it's pretty obvious to not expect the same depth in a 2 minute video that you would get in an 8 minute one. To give you an idea of the constraints I put on it, I usually write about a five page script. My Chivalry script was exactly one page.
Overall, I think it was a successful experiment, and I'd like to try to work out a style to keep making the condensed reviews alongside my full length reviews. I really appreciate the feedback, everyone! Hopefully I can turn it into something everyone will enjoy.
I like this format, I just hope doing these doesn't mean you'll avoid coming back to a game for a more in-depth look. I'd love to see a more insightful look at Chivalry in the future. It is nice to have something to hold us over while you work on longer videos. Plus, I'm attending school too, so I know how busy of a work load that can be.
Especially if you're working as well; I rarely had time to game when I was working nearly fulltime.

It would be cool if it didn't had that acted/different voice and all the swearing all the time.
I liked the more softer voice in all the other videos

It not bad but it reminds me a lot of BroTeam.
The being said, I enjoyed it, and it got a laugh out of me a few times.

Oh boy oh boy!
Since it's almost Christmas someone needs to send Moose a santa hat with his logo on it.
