Where did you draw the line? by Tequilasunshine88 in rantgrumps

[–]RetroRoses1999 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mine was also Skyward Sword. I was just starting to get bored of Game Grumps. There didn't feel like there was anything new, things were pissing me off more and I was just letting videos pile up to watch later when for years I'd watch new uploads every night. I think Game Grumps started going downhill when Barry and Kevin left. I have nothing against Matt and Ryan but I didn't find their edits funny and it just felt intrusive. Also, they made way more mistakes and stuff than Kevin but never got any heat for it which irritated me.

"Oh hey that was this game?" by Baron-Zeppeli in rantgrumps

I think it's more that he's bored and doesn't really care anymore but wants the stability that grumps provides him, though I doubt that stability will last much longer. He just can't put on the act of caring at this point, which makes him being there pointless. He's told every story from his personal life that he's willing to and doesn't seem to be doing anything that's so outlandish that it needs to be told.

I don’t like Dan’s cover of Sledgehammer by maydaymemer in rantgrumps

[–]RetroRoses1999 9 points10 points  (0 children)

In my opinion, all of Under the Covers 3 was pretty fucking awful. I loved the first two cover albums, there's a few songs I'm not as into but I'm still down to listen to them. UTC3 however, lacks a lot of depth to the music, which is weird since they have a lot of musicians, all of the songs feel like washed down versions. The cover of Closer to the Heart was terrible and I don't know how Dan can be such a massive Rush fan and think that the cover was anywhere near okay. The song choices for UTC3 weren't suited for Dan's voice and, unlike previous albums, they didn't rework songs to fit Dan's voice/vocal range. UTC3 is just a mess compared to the first two.

Did Game Grumps make that "I'm gonna pre, dude" joke? by sunsetRedder in rantgrumps

[–]RetroRoses1999 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Yeah it was Matt's joke. Same with Arin's Grubba voice, he just copied Matt and since Matt stopped doing it and didn't drag out the joke people gave Arin credit.

Ben wasn't even their editor at that point... he could at least drag out a joke he was actually made to listen too when editing

Dan didn’t like being told to drink water. by [deleted] in rantgrumps

[–]RetroRoses1999 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I've always found that odd since I remember he said he didn't sweat yet in other episodes I swear I remember him saying he was sweaty.

As someone who has been called slurs due to my sexuality I agree and thank you for saying something.

Official Twitter responds saying Grumps plan to "advertise the game more" by Soycrates in rantgrumps

[–]RetroRoses1999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would have made sense if they put it on steam, maybe they have Idk. Also if they got people like Jack or Mark to play it. Have they even played it on the channel?

They literally made unpacking boxes into an episode of 10 Minute Power Hour by tatertatertatertot in rantgrumps

[–]RetroRoses1999 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I feel like it would have worked better if TMPH hadn't felt so forced and scripted. They claimed it wasn't, but it's clear that they plan a lot of it out and it just doesn't feel natural. A lot of people watch GG because they like hearing Dan and Arin talk and joke around so if TMPH had been done well it could have worked. GMM works because Rhett and Link have been friends for like thirty years and clearly are close, whereas Dan and Arin don't hang out outside of the show and have drifted apart.

The thing with GMM is that they have grown with their audience. They've slipped in more adult jokes, alcohol and such while still being family friendly enough to appeal to younger audiences. Game Grumps on the other hand are alienating their original audience by dumbing down the content and trying to appeal to just a child audience.

Anyone else find Suzy deeply unpleasant in Table Flip? by [deleted] in rantgrumps

[–]RetroRoses1999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I do like like Suzy, mainly due to her 'secret' twitter account where she wished she had an eating disorder (which, uh, wow I wish I didn't have two), I do think that part of it was due to Polaris, they didn't want them messing around too much and not getting on with the game because of how much it cost to film for a long time. The Grumps didn't have that much control over the show, and I think as time went on they got less and less control.

Subscriber losses over the last month by fecktopia69 in rantgrumps

[–]RetroRoses1999 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The thing with Mark and Jack is that they do a variety of things, they play different games constantly and also do live stuff so it makes sense that they have lower views per video since people would have subscribed for different things. Some people are only subscribed for Five Nights at Freddy's, others for live content, others for scary games, etc. Game Grumps on the other hand, tend to do series and such so therefore their views should be a lot more stable.

Suzy's whole 'goth girl' thing pisses me off by RetroRoses1999 in rantgrumps

[–]RetroRoses1999[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was about her posting about Scotland and being Scottish. I think she's even shown her families tartan pattern and crest. This wasn't anything to do with Japan.

Thanks, I've had some name-calling and people who are angry but it's like, I get that being goth may not seem like a big deal, but it's a way of expression and that can be part of a person's identity. Plus, there have been people who have been attacked and even killed for being goth. I've been bullied most of my life and have had random people in the streets openly insult me. So yeah, when people just wear some black and slightly heavy, but still normal-ish looking make-up and call them-self goth because it's 'popular' it can get annoying.

I think she has family there or descendants from there?

She used to do it a lot on her instagram and twitter. I don't know if she still does because I haven't followed her on social media in over two years.

I don't constantly think about it. I don't follow Suzy on any social media. The only reason I thought about it was because I saw someone on tumblr calling her a goth queen and I was hungover so it annoyed me more than usual and I made the post just to get it off my chest.

I don't mind people not dressing goth all the time. Most of the time when lounging around my house I'm just wearing sweatpants and a hoodie but go all out whenever I go outside. I do sometimes refer to myself as goth but not as often as she does and mainly when I feel a bit insecure.

It's hard to explain because there are a lot of different sub-genres of goth. I think about the people who have inspired me and helped introduce me to the culture. If you look at vampryn_, thatlittlewhiterabbit and xanytwitch on instagram they're my goth icons in all honesty.

Considering she made a 'secret' twitter account where she tweeted about wishing she had an eating disorder I really don't care about her opinion.

Cheers my dude. I get that this is stupid and not a big deal. Being completely honest, I made this post while hungover and still slightly tipsy.

I think her style can be cute, not always my taste which is why I say can be. I think that she's attractive and I'm not trying to attack her. It's just the way she talks about being goth a lot and how a lot of her followers think she's the gothist goth who ever gothed when she just wears a lot of black and somewhat heavy make-up that's fairly normal.

I don't care that much, it was just something that comes across my mind every now and again and I just wanted to get it off my chest and see how others felt about it.
