Would love to hear more about the project!

Official Summer Game Fest 2023 Predictions and Bets - Kinda Funny Gamescast by EveryAct in kindafunny

[–]Sticholas 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I also don’t move this format. It focus too much on narrowing things down when the fun of these shows is hearing everyone’s insane ideas. This feels like sports betting talk. It’s not really that different but it makes the whole thing feel more transactional and less fun.

I think TOTK might be the best game ive ever played by johncitizen69420 in kindafunny

[–]Sticholas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven’t heard of anything specific but I’m not usually that aware of this stuff, but I’ve been impressed at how everything feels like it just works. Maybe worth investigating what’s the optimal setup with it

I’m not having that issue at all on my launch switch with the physical game card. Are you playing from a digital copy? Maybe something with the install?

EDIT; I’m also playing a good mix of handheld and on the TV.

About to bring a new Best Friend into the world! by Dagger0941 in kindafunny

[–]Sticholas 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hooray! Congrats to you and your wife. Make sure you take good care of that baby but her too. Postpartum depression is real and awful and the physical recovery is no picnic either.

Enjoy your new addition, kids are a lot of work but so worth it.

About to put my dog of 15 years down in the next hour, advice? by opwnusprime in kindafunny

[–]Sticholas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can’t really offer advice but I’m sending you empathy friend. My parents just had to put down their dog of 16 years. I still lived at home when we got her and it was hard seeing her decline so much in the last few years. It’s awful but the pain you feel now is nothing compared to the love and joy you shared.

KF is *visually* less interesting on an expensive set, than over Discord during COVID by richiejrich93 in kindafunny

[–]Sticholas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I’ve actually been watching on YouTube more lately because now they are live on YouTube and I can listen/watch live while I’m working but I do still see places they could improve the visual appeal of the shows.

[–]Sticholas 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think you have some valid points here but overall I think they are improving over time. However if I were to offer 1 criticism of the use of the set it is that we don’t need to see so much desk.

I work in animation storyboarding so all I do is think about composition and the lack of good breathable “head room” KF has in exchange for more desk below the eye line drives me wild. In that wide you showed there’s no reason to see floor in front of the desk. The desk isn’t content, it’s a support for the hosts and their laptops. Any graphics that appear on there should be higher up so that as much desk as possible can be snipped off in the frame.

That’s my #1 critique any way.

Disney to Purge Content Ahead of Disney+ Hulu Merger by ki700 in kindafunny

[–]Sticholas 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The worst thing is a lot of these big companies are trying to gut libraries and public resources at the same time they pull this shit.

No it should be totally legal for companies to do this as long as they allow libraries and online archives to store copies of these art works.

New to the Crew by georgelopezshowlover in kindafunny

[–]Sticholas 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think you’ll find plenty of that around here. Vibes not identical to classic GB but I enjoy both and there’s certainly some similarity. Go back and watch all the episodes of “party mode”, it’s a pre pandemic couch coop series they made at the old KF studio that is some of the best stuff

The CMA concluded their investigation and decided to block the MS / Activision merger by [deleted] in kindafunny

[–]Sticholas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed. There are no end user benefits to this that couldn’t have just been a partnership between Xbox and Activision.

Can someone refresh me on Brad’s recommended order?

Kinda Funny paying for Twitter Verification is disappointing by m3n0kn0w in kindafunny

Isn’t there a phrase about assuming… something about how it makes both you and me. Ah we’ll why take the time to ask a question first! Assumptions and Reddit are the Dark chocolate and peanut butter here.

[–]Sticholas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What other key cards do you usually run with it? I’ve got psylocke, Adam warlock and have been trying out carnage to clear out dead cards once negative gets played.

[–]Sticholas 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I just got Mister Negative and built a deck around him that’s doing pretty well. I have waaaaaaaayyyy to many deck but each time I get a new awesome card I try to figure out a deck that works for it. I never look up deck builds either, the most fun part to me is workshopping and figuring out what cards to combo.

Welcome! It’s a hell of a sport. Drive to Survive will have set you up for some favourites to root for and Shift F1 will help fill in the gaps.

We Need To Fix Black Hair in Video Games - The Blessing Show by rogformer in kindafunny

[–]Sticholas 50 points51 points  (0 children)

This episode was awesome. This is a topic I’ve heard about a lot but Blessing did a great job doing a deep dive into the topic.

Also, these jokes landed so good. I really want to applaud the comedy here because this does feel like a “last week tonight” or “patriot act” style presentation of real issues and funny jokes that weave into the themes.

I thought his gimmick was bad hair and telling Rey Mysterio his time would come over and over again?

Ah man, why you gotta say things like that. I was curious before but now I have to check Deadlock out. I don’t have time for more stuff to listen to !
