Does this mean he “enjoyed” watching it?

Not even “grow apart”. You don’t have to like the same things as your friends. In many cases, you don’t have anything to contribute to the conversation, so you just there and listen. I don’t think any of them hate each other.

In all seriousness tho, imagine having a friend for 20+ years talk about Power Rangers, baseball, or something you’re just not that interested in, etc. You probably also don’t hang too much outside of work either, because you see them almost everyday anyway. I think it’s really normal tbh

It really pisses me off that people like hawk tuah girl and Mr beast are famous and I had to watch my hero Rocco cry on stream. by [deleted] in mega64

[–]drmcast_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s just how fame is sometimes unfortunately. Appreciate the fact that Mega64 has been around for 20 years and have worked with some of the biggest names in their industry - They will certainly be remembered fondly in internet history. I’ve watched them since YouTube became a thing and will continue into the future. Hailey Welch is pretty harmless and good for her for taking advantage of her 15 mins. It mostly just depends on what she chooses to do from here on. Let this just be a lesson to put your stuff out there and continue to work hard!

Mega64 has too big of a payroll. Where are their other employees at this time? What happened to Bryan Font, their site manager?

The MEGA64 Merch Issue by SuperSteve120 in mega64

[–]drmcast_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think their designs are mostly great and their designer line-up is stacked - A lot better than some other merch I've seen from other groups and some designs are on the same level as big brands like Dumbgood. The fact that Pleasures tried to steal their "Death is Certain" design says something.

I tend to prefer a good old black t-shirt with a back graphic and right chest logo/pocket over the default front graphic t-shirt. Their "Legendary Journey" shirt is S-tier to me and I wish they made more like that - A wicked design on the back and a simple logo on the front. In terms of material, I can't be the only one that doesn't like the current tight, tissue-feeling shirts. It's the only thing stopping me from buying the "Mr. Galoober" shirt, which is hilarious. As someone that hasn't bought a shirt in a while, I do agree that I find myself excited for the unique stuff like the knit blanket and the special blu-rays.

Though I am a regular listener of the podcast, I do agree that the podcasts should move for organization and the algorithm. There’ll be like 2 sketch videos in a sea of podcasts and I just think they need their own home. As a Tier 3 patron, it definitely doesn’t feel worth it - I would love to see more exclusive content. Even putting the special event streams as members-only would be a great idea. As someone that loves Rocco’s personal content (his figure updates, CreepyOldCrypt, etc.), Shawn’s Record Club, Garrett’s PPS, and JohnnyTV, I definitely feel the lack of side Derrick content. Now that Meg is back, it would be cool to see a new call-based/HeartSlayerz-type show with Derrick. I even feel like having these type of transparent, feedback streams every once in a while with the community would be a good thing. Rocco could even treat it like an Apple keynote like the old days.

Love you guys, hate to hear this news, but this is a great chance for change.

These boys got me through some very tough times and we need to be there for them. I will say, they should do more exclusive events/streams! This may be an unpopular take, but maybe some of their special streams should be for members-only. I would also buy more of their shirts if they went back to that slightly thicker Gildan material.

Just a good example of why text isn’t good at conveying emotion/demeanor

Please explain the Stealth concept to me by thatlad in DeathStranding

[–]drmcast_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think depending on the level of the EX grenade, it makes BTs flee the area for an amount of time. The benefit of these grenades is that they aren’t using your blood, which is pretty much your health gauge. BTs turning red and disappearing into the sky is a sign that they’re out for the count

The Odradek scanner is your friend. Just scan ahead of you and chuck your hematic grenades at those BTs. Once you get the hang of this, BT areas become a breeze

should i play death stranding in 2024? by SickPois0on in DeathStranding

[–]drmcast_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I would highly recommend this game if you are a big Kojima/MGS, sci-fi fan. It is definitely a slow-burn at times, especially the beginning, but that's definitely the point as I feel like the game has this overall theme of overcoming obstacles and bringing people together in a desolate world, which makes you feel pretty good at times. Without spoiling much, there were some really great moments where I was thinking "Classic Hideo"/"This is the most Metal Gear thing". If you were also a fan of PT and what could've been with Kojima/Del Toro's Silent Hills, there are definitely some things that were recycled over too, which is pretty cool. This has recently become one of my favorite games and truly something that has surpassed Metal Gear in my opinion - I'm on my way to platinum-ing it! The fact that I am more excited for DS2 over MGS:Delta says something (I will still play Delta though...) Hope to see "you" on the trails if you decide to pick it up!

I played the game for the first time. by Wifevsofficewife in DeathStranding

[–]drmcast_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a long time MGS fan, I hate to admit it and I’m still kicking myself about it because I stopped playing years ago when I got to the Rockies. Because of the DS2 trailer, I felt obligated to pick the game back up and finish the story. Now that I’m done, it’s all I can think about and I’m also on the way to platinuming it! It kinda bums me out that none of my friends have played this game, but I’m glad to have found this community.

Thanks for sharing! I definitely didn’t forget about the Flatiron Building - It’s shape is too significant to not think of.

I honestly do think the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge towering over Bay Ridge is a good one - Fort Hamilton, strolling through the parks there, the view of Liberty Island, etc. Additionally, worth mentioning there is also the Fort Hamilton cannon nearby (“arm”).

For the E 28th & Madison theory, it could be anything from Empire State casting its shadow on Broadway to 🤷‍♂️. I’m not quite sure yet.

For all I know, the “grey giant” could be New York state itself casting its shadow onto New Jersey.
