I'm excited to see what they do with the community comments slot. It was something that needed reworking. Watching chat when it was announced nobody was upset so it was clearly the right call
I'm Also really happy to see them doing an active patron recruitment drive on Friday

Stream was good. I'm glad FIFA won... Pokkén would've been a bore.
I'm really really happy to see some proactivity and reshaping. This might be exactly the thing they need to keep it growing again , and either way it's good to remove things that aren't working to make way for new developments
That being said, I did enjoy the community videos and appreciate the ones that were made!
FIFA was great - I know Hasney and a few others said but they should've done local multiplayer from the start.
Great news. A whole lot of man hours for what amounts to little more than fan-service. Hopefully that takes a bit of pressure off the editing bench.

Totally the right call.
Of all the things I could be listening to Jones read out, comments from other Patrons is just about the bottom of the list.
Kyle throwing shade towards the Schalke arena and Huber/Ian trying to pronounce Veltins was the funniest. 
The 2v2 matches were great fun, very glad all the allies were into it in regards to the competition.
Fifa is basically the only EA Sports title I can relate at least a little bit to. Both Basketball and Ice hockey just have too wacky, over complicated controls,not to mention ofc that I know more about the rules of football.
Might buy the Switch version down the line. Will be really interesting to see how the third parties handle sales on the console. I can't imagine they will be forced to go much lower than 50/60%, even for like Doom or something 2 years down the line.

"A worthy successor to Final Fantasy XV"
I was rooting for Huber.
The topic of the PowerPoint presentation is meh. Would have hoped for a more open topic and maybe gaming related. I guess now we're getting three almost identical presentations.

Not like they cant tie it into video games somehow. And Id like to think theyll all be anything but identical to each other lol.
We will see. I don't think there is much to work with.

I laughed at the subject of the presentations.
All three will mention the Galapagos turtles.

West division winner of TGS Vs Coast Division winner of Paris at PSX.
The winner takes on Brad 1v1 most likely with the usual picking teams dynamic.

it was a freudian slip. it's rigged. kyle already knows all the answers. he's boys with shuhei
They should retire Bowser's Big Blast as a tie breaker from now on. It's not going to get any better than that. lol that was crazy
That Mario Party segment:
Also watched the Souls Retro Pt.2 and i really appreciate how you can feel Brad's love and respect for the series and Miyazaki. It's also great to see him grow as a journalist and write more complex pieces, hope he'll go back to more reviews once the retrospective is done.

The Betting Special Mario Party finale was great but at the same time, the fact three of them made it through with only 4 points each highlighted how poor Kyle's format and questions were. Shocking work. Huber's gonna show him how it's done.
On a completely different subject, while I liked the Battle Royale segment on the podcast, especially Hoeg Law's input, I thought they glossed over what I feel like should be a big talking point and that's Fortnite Battle Royale's competitive advantages over PUBG: Far better performance, F2P and available on consoles NOW, not "2017" (Xbox) or "later" (PS4). It kinda reminds me of those Minecraft ripoffs that appeared on the Xbox Indie store before Minecraft got its 360 release but in this case, it isn't just a cheap ripoff, it's a high profile game, so I'm pretty sure it'll make a dent in PUBG's sales.
Oh and as for the next gen discussion. I don't see the point of Sony announcing the PS5 in 2019 when the PS4 will just be coming off its peak years, nor do I see Microsoft releasing a new console only two years after the One X. So I'm betting on 2020. I also think all the rolling upgrades talk from Microsoft will be thrown out the minute Sony announces a proper next gen system.

Yep.
Also the final bets shouldn't be this long and complicated. Like Ben's Sega would apologize was perfect, absurd but possible.
You realize that his name is the only one that fits in that spoiler tag, right?

Fame casually announcing to the group that she wants to kill her father and everyone just being "okay"
Anyways we all know that Pomper is a red herring and Carmine is the real main character who will defeat the dragon lord.
Not a fan of the Twitch/Discord mods anyway. I've stopped interacting with them now after I was getting lectured about the Allies by one of them.
Was that really as far as that conversation went? You were just joking around about an already silly question and they banned you?

Nah, itll be Moof in a valiant return.
I'm gonna edit my original comment 'cause it was a little inflammatory. They're very cliquey to me and don't particularly moderate very well besides banning the obvious hate speech. They've treated some users quite unfairly in the past and will usually ignore users who need assistance if they know/like them much.
I know Brandon said in a Cup of Jones a while ago that they were trying to improve moderation and to be fair, around the time it became bad like Christmas/New Year time and they got funny with me so maybe they've gotten better since then but I've just stuck to muting the chat/certain users now.
