a month late but that's what hulk hogan did early 90s when they tried to unionize
This episode holds the record for number of smh sparked by Nick's takes, replacing the fruit tier list at top spot. This man needs to achieve economic theory before putting it out to Gen Alpha at YT University. Hope to fuck he actually reads Marx by the time he starts collecting on Hasanabi's paycheques. Smh. With love and respect.
hey Phin, consider not bleeping the patreon episodes. We pay for the uncensored stuff here.
Why are we so surprised about the Dutch (ASML) making lithography machines Phin?! I take offence. 😄😄😄
labubu is late phin but labubu loved how grumpy everyone was today phin, 10/10 episode, thank you phin..
Nicks fun land would be the most chaotic place, I can only imagine the degeneracy that would come from it 😂
Also gta onlines heists and stuff were super fun but cheaters were the worst in just random pubs
I wish chance would play games on release again :( he’s talking about it being over saturated but like I think he would still be people’s #1 pick to watch play these releases if he just did it consistently instead of making people find another streamer
Gotta eat more soda. Get the bulk going!
chance is right, nick is too insufferable and insecure when wrong
I thought you was on the pill or sum shit
I bought the steam machine simply because I want the small form factor and I want to play games on my tv in my living room. That's it. I still have my main PC that I can use to play titles that require better hardware. I also went down the route of pricing out a custom pc build but the form factor wasn't as small as I wanted, and it still was relatively close in price. The cost weeds out like 95% of the people that were originally interested which sucks, but that's the way she goes
W angry podcast. Someone check Nicks blood pressure
Can we please have Nick checked for a concussion? The GTA V story was amazing! GTA Online is bad on PC because it's P2P and cheaters be cheaters.... GTA VI is sold as a single-player only experience, we don't know what will happen to GTA Online. Remember GTA Online is not called GTA V Online, it's just GTA Online!
You know? You know? You know?
had nick by the balls a few times during this podcast, but then he called football (the one with ongoing world cup, the only real football ) he was forgiven. W Phin?
Chance: "KYS, slowly. I wanna watch." Funniest thing said on the pod so far
GTA 3 was revolutionary for its time. GTA: SA and Vice City were great story and atmosphere. SA was another big step for open world. Every other GTA was generic and meh. Online is terrible but prints money for rockstar so that’s all its gonna be.
This episode was fucking hilarious
Think about the price of gta 6 like this: buying Pokémon red would have taken like 2-3 hrs of work to buy. GTA 5 today is 5-6 hours. This is assuming minimum wage
Nick gives another based take on how dumb people are on twitter 23:45
F tier streamer. S tier podcaster/debt-farmer
In europe tips are for exceptional service not just service in general, our servers actually get paid a fair wage too
Phin the goat 🐐
Perfect timing Phin. I give you permission to dip into the Patreon fund and give yourself a nice little bonus. You deserve it champ 💪
YES it's going to straight to my japan trips (continuing to ignore my debt)
Thank you phin
