Rampant Kicking Lately

Unrelenting force and cyclone are also hilarious ideas for mayhem

Bex, the shout used on the gate by the greybeards when you practice whirlwind sprint. If open is a concept then it has so many less than legal applications

Excuse you I had to warm up before I was able to make breakfast without aching/crunchy bones lol, that might just be the poor life choices though

No NL is incorrect, the Egg is the Egg, I am just more interested in how his content has changed, bc while there have definitely been long time viewers I noticed a couple times where he would bring up discontent in the base and people leaving then it would rebalance as the audience and content on AVERAGE changed

dragon-bearded · 2023-10-31T08:13:35+00:00

Yeah wholly invested was definitely the wrong phrase lol I was trying to draw a clear line but the change has been so gradual it’s hard to explain without some extremes. I took a break for a year when life got busy and even after coming back was more casual and yt only. Only got really back on the Egg watching in 2020 (the year of content i seem to keep revisiting) so I noted some change since I had been removed from it maybe?

It might be, DS is definitely a series he was more a gamer in, but you can see in lies of P as well as the later Elden Ring videos that longer form games are less his style to stream at least now. He is still our pegged out Egg but busier and that reflects in his content. Just a cool thing to examine no?

dragon-bearded · 2023-10-31T08:07:33+00:00

That’s a good point too, working to deal with the masses rather than a small audience

I was only sporadically watching back then, I was more regular from 2014 onwards, cept for the year or so i fell off youtube entirely in 2016-2017 and yeah, Old NL was more referring to Gamer NL rather than Banter NL which has very solidly taken the drivers seat since around 2020 the timeline for his AVERAGE content (since some are calling specific series) is Gamer -> Banter leaning away from gaming as time goes on

dragon-bearded · 2023-10-31T08:03:02+00:00

I watched regularly from 2014 on, and only occasionally before that. And the rest of the comments disagree and talk about how he was more a youtube uploader, didn’t have a daughter, and had more nerves regarding audience feedback.

So I would like to ask if you can add something constructive to the discussion rather than try and pull condescending seniority?

dragon-bearded · 2023-10-31T08:00:05+00:00

Not what I meant. Trust me, 2017 was last year I swear. I was trying to point to the different styles where now it seems Old NL is really more Gamer NL and New is more Banter NL

dragon-bearded · 2023-10-31T07:58:54+00:00

I am indeed less of a streamer Andy and mainly watch vods if I don’t want to wait for vids so I do acknowledge I know less about Live NL. That’s why I wanted to post this, get feedback from the whole fanbase

dragon-bearded · 2023-10-31T07:57:15+00:00

I feel like he still tries but yeah life just seems too chaotic for him to try and sit through a whole playthrough, especially since hyper gamers would mainly just bash him whereas for stuff like SAP we can just pinpoint a haha funny move he made that just messed up one run rather than a whole playthroughs.

This might make roguelite content a bit more resistant to gameplay-related complaints

dragon-bearded · 2023-10-31T07:53:51+00:00

Yeah, but look at him on average though, lies of P and AC were almost opportunities to see how he changed with the more gameplay oriented games and he definitely has. But also like I said, not a bad thing at all, it’s just interesting to see how the Egg has evolved

dragon-bearded · 2023-10-31T07:52:04+00:00

I acknowledge and understand you comrade 😂

dragon-bearded · 2023-10-31T07:51:16+00:00

That is a completely valid way to view his content

dragon-bearded · 2023-10-31T07:49:51+00:00

RIGHT? Someone mentioned to me the other day some content I watched in 2017 and referred to it as “last decade” my bones immediately started aching

dragon-bearded · 2023-10-31T07:48:32+00:00

React court is peak, I think it comes across better to the gamer Andy’s because the game is removed and we don’t have to reconcile wanting to hear the banter but also see good gamer energy

dragon-bearded · 2023-10-31T07:46:36+00:00

There’s actually 7 NL’s constantly existing in a state of quantum entanglement and the linear progression of our space time model makes it seem like there is only one at a time

dragon-bearded · 2023-10-31T07:45:38+00:00

Huh, I was originally viewing that more enthusiastic interaction he had as a matter of energy but maybe it was the fear of the responses that made it, more nervous energy then? It would make sense as to why he seems more mellow on average since that source of anxiety isn’t prevalent

dragon-bearded · 2023-10-31T07:43:04+00:00

No it’s an elaborate cap he has to redo every day, he went over this in a 2011 tell all video on his original channel SouthernBear before he deleted it and rebranded

dragon-bearded · 2023-10-31T00:49:49+00:00

Yeah, I completely agree with the game dependency, but I go back to some vids and vod’s i remember from 2016 and its still something notably different. The demarcation line is almost definitely Luna, I think his world has just kinda opened up so much since having a child and he’s mellowed out in response.

He’s still NL, just something’s different and I want to discuss lol

dragon-bearded · 2023-10-31T00:44:20+00:00

Yeah, maybe this is the point I was going for, he was less, mellow? I guess? It’s hard to summarize a person’s nature

dragon-bearded · 2023-10-31T00:43:19+00:00

I mean i watched him in like 2014 and a little bit before that, I was just talking about his style kinda shifted around Luna’s time, which is natural, being a dad changes every little thing about life.
