It's very easy: People disagree and refuse to back down. It's no different than Gaf drama other than the imaginary points that increase your e-peen.

I think the difference is that silly Gaf drama usually gets shut down by mods before it reaches Reddit levels of stupidity. With less strict modding, Gaf would reach Reddit levels fairly quickly.

Lmao, they talked about ElPresador on the beastcast. 😂 I've been watching this dude for years.
You just did a Myggen.

He saw Jeff's tweet about anime and felt too betrayed to use it.
I think Jeff went to the Gaf Mods and requested they censor him for sullying his good image.

if that's the case then they would shut down all review threads before they begin

You're a big guy.
Brad playing the new Doom level was quite enjoyable, the problem was the lack of preparation and prevarication over which version of Doom to use for it.

I'd be down for a live stream where Brad plays hard video games. A breaking of his patience or something.

I got a name: Brutal Brad
I've said for a while we need more Brad premium features. Whether that be him playing those Doom levels, finishing Dark Souls, or something else I don't care.
But, then again, according to Jason he's the one who stopped Snatcher from becoming a regular feature, so maybe we shouldn't support that monster.

Sorry! My condolences.

Wait, what? Why would he do that? :/
I don't mind if he's unwilling to contribute any regular features, that's on him, but shutting down other people's efforts?
That drawing is seriously awesome.
Regarding NiOh, i'm not feeling it either.
And regarding Hitman ep. 2, that level is huge and has a lot of potential for diverse methods. And even though (so far) it seems to lack something of the same quality as "I'm Helmut fucking Kruger!!!!!", if they manage to find a certain "sporty" item i'm pretty sure Dan will love to see that method being accomplished.

Ok Souls nerds I have a deep lore question.
Dark / Demons Souls / Bloodborne are well known for deep lore baried in every corner of the world and every item description. What might only get a few lines of spoken dialogue in a passing conversation could lead to a mountain of lore buried in item descriptions.
So... after 5 games and 3 franchises what is the lore reason of illusionary walls?

it's likely tied to the same lore that explains the coins you throw that go HELLO in that absurdly hilarious voice
If they recorded today it'll likely be a latecast.

Still 1pm 🕐.
Ah, thanks. GOTY 201X it is lol.
Still haven't played MGS or Life is Strange so 2015 spoiler casts are always a threat.

Yeah, who is that dude in the tracksuit?
It's Jeff.
No that's some weird guy. It's not even Jeff's client Dr. Tracksúit.
I just assume they recorded today, don't think there's any indication either way. I need to go to bed early so it's all the same to me, won't be able to listen to it until tomorrow either way.

I summoned a guy the other day and he actually used one of those and I forgot those existed.
They have actual writing behind them though. That giant made them while in giant jail as a way to express his emotions.
ITS SOMETHING.
Nothing explains why some walls vanish like a ghost when I hit them while other walls fall apart like a wall should. Or why hitting a random balcony made a staircase appear.
I can't believe I have an answer for this, but those wood carvings with the voices are carved by Hawkeye Gough. You meet him in the Dark Souls 1 DLC, trapped on top of a tower. To spend the time he carves giant logs into those little faces that talk. Don't ask me how he recorded his voice.

or why i had to attack them in DS1 but then in DS2 it's like Wolf3d where you're jamming the A button on walls hoping for the best.
I think that if we keep tugging at this string the whole fictional world of dark souls will fall apart
i knew that, i just like pointing to silly gameplay things that are just there because game is game.
Magic. There're spells in the world that can turn people into inanimate objects, seems like a spell that makes a fake wall appear is way within the realm of possibility. All illusory walls hide something, whether it's a bonfire, treasure or even a covenant. I don't think it's a stretch to think that someone from Oolacile, the land where the Chameleon sorcery was created, could've been exploring and found something interesting and was like "Fuck everyone else, only I know about this."

This is what I dislike about DS lore. I don't want to read item descriptions to know all this bullshit. That's just exposition. The same as the mass effect codex which also was boring. DS does a lot of great environmental storytelling - some of the best - but this stuff drives me up the wall.
