Isn't that the standard turn around for EZA reviews/discussions?
For real though. Maybe year 2 can be focused on you guys improving your production pipeline/scheduling?
LMAO that was good.

^ I don't even get the quote tbh. The reply and the bolded sections of Bloods post are so unrelated that it reads like a huge reach to me.

Loving the recent eps of TT. I'm a few eps behind but it amazes me how the group just manages to make every single situation so chaotic.
The boat crash into the docks still gets me.

About EZAnime being late. Thanks Ben for the Patreon post, that is absolutely the way to do it. Now we know exactly why and by how much it was delayed, it's great for us to be in the loop of what's happening.
Besides it's totally understandable, given the onslaught of big games and events you've all faced from January and onwards.

Pre-ordered Persona 5. Thank god that the game flood ends for me personally after that, so the next few month will be dedicated to FFXV, ME:A, Danganronpa 1&2, Deus Ex:MD and Persona 5. Oh, and my master thesis paper lmao.
Totally random: We need a EZA, not funny-show.#wolf
One Piece will be my first EZAnime episode, can't wait. Love that show, or rather some specific arcs I watched while in school. Water 7, Enies Lobby, Skypia especially.

I was not to super hot on Persona 4 overall, but the music, man.... Stuff like that and e.g. the OST for The World Ends With You just keeps me at it at all times. Music can be so incredibly important and key to the experience.

Huber and Brad with the wrasslin talk, excellent
(not that Mania is anything to get hyped on, but it's fun to pretend)
51 minutes of stuff I need to watch after work

He's a few bluegrubs short of a completed side quest. Buried in boxes.
BosVsWoz is the best.
I am unashamed to say that I've just been staring at my Amazon order page, waiting for it to change to 'Shipped.'
Oh cool, I didn't know it was almost an hour long. Hope Huber gets those audio issues ironed out.

Look forward to it my friends. Its surpassed Persona 3 & 4 in my eyes, and earned a spot in my top 10 favorite games of all time.
I haven't even finished it yet..

Really? Because it's really bad for me. Extremely low, plus some garbled noise on top.

Excited this is a thing. My feelings of the game seem to be in the minority so I'm interested to see if my personal issues are shared by any of the three.
Perfectly fine on my end, on desktop. I think it might be a youtube issue since they updated some stuff. Huber Syndrome was that way for some people too, but also sounds fine for me.

Amazing intro lol. Sound is normal for me. I'm on stereo speakers.
Haven't played Horizon but honestly not a game I have strong feelings for to not get spoiled.
Edit: Guess I'll consider myself lucky. Scared to refresh too xD

Just fired the intro to my TV and yeah, it's pretty bad. Sounds like they're using tins and string.
That's what my phone speakers sound like anyway so it just sounded like my phone at first!
EDIT: Update from Kyle: UPDATE: Fixing a weird audio issue that made the video sound bad on phones
Yeah, I've just heard weird issues on other videos too, but not all of them on my Android TV YouTube app. Not just EZA ones. Might be using a new audio encoder or something on YTs end for mobile that doesn't play nice with some mixes.

I made a post about this the other day. I think EZA would benefit greatly by having someone work a mixer while they're recording. Also, adding some sound-absorbing panels around the garage would help.
Its not on their end. This time at least.

The latest Huber Syndrome sounds a bit off to me as well.

Also this. Don't break my heart, Bloodworth. Don't break it!
Awesome! (And it's for a game I haven't played yet...Ah well! Watching it anyways!)
Oh, I was talking specifically this Spoiler Mode.
As far as I understand, Huber took Huber Syndrome down for the same reason.
I haven't seen Spoiler Mode as I still want to play Horizon, but I have seen Huber Syndrome via patreon and it was fine for me as well.
That said, when I started it on my home computer remotely to get the link (as I don't want to log into patreon at work), it did sound very strange. Very thin sounding, like it came out some sodacans.
But as the soundquality over remote connection usually stinks and I never watch anything like that, I didn't really think something was off.

I'll admit the current "issue" with the Huber Hype and Spoiler Mode videos are a bit different than what I described before. I listen to 95% of EZA content through headphones, which really does enhance most audio inconsistencies. I brought it up because I figured there are others who are in the same boat (apparently there are since this latest video was taken down because 'it sounded bad on phones').
Again, my two concerns are audio clipping and sound vibrating. Clipping is the easier of the two to fix, just need to make sure the levels don't peak during recording.
The vibrations/bouncing are going to be tough to fix in Jones' garage, but I do think it can be done with some creativity, and , making sure you're really kissing the mic during recording, which Kyle actually asked Huber to be more mindful of on the latest podcast.
Superhero game with Ian's dad. Perfection.

Allies I need advice regarding Persona 5
These are really long games but seem designed to need 2 playthroughs to see everything content wise and to get the best ending without a guide. When I played Persona 3 back in the day I used a spoiler free guide that helped get all max links and good ending on the first playthrough. It was still a 100 hour game but I got the most out of it.
Now Persona 5 is rolling in, there's a spoiler free guide and I'm wondering if I use it again. There's too many other games out there for me to do 2 playthroughs and I don't want to spend 100 hours to then not get the true ending. But the guide will rob some of the "free" choice of the game.

I think someone said there's a very obvious flag to save your game there and that's when the ending decision(s) come in.

Firstly, loved the structure. It definitely should not be freestyle, it needs to be sectioned (especially when it comes to big games). I believe the structure Kyle gave this show produced the best insight/critique from the panel.
I know you shouldn't rate critique on whether you agree with the opinions but this Spoiler Mode was very satisfying for me as I feel some of the issues I had with the game were discussed and not drowned beneath the hyperbole that has surrounded some aspects.
Definitely agree with the following...

But yeah, combat is the best thing about the game and I'm very optimistic about where the franchise could head. I think what Huber said about this possibly being the Uncharted 1 of the series is quite level-headed.
Just a really realistic take on the game in this show. They praised the game for what it does well and hung it up when certain things aren't quite as impressive as they should be. I really hope if there are Spoiler Modes on Witcher 3, Persona 5 and other critically-acclaimed games, they take the same approach! Excellent!

The hardest battle is the two rock-burrower machines in the Corrupted Zone that Jones mentions and makes the final boss battle seem a little anti-climactic. Especially as we know Guerilla is capable of very good boss battles.
-
Huber nails how the game handles the timing of the lore-dumps very badly as you are swamped with things to read/listen to whilst you're expected to listen to character VA AND play the game on top of that. Glad that was mentioned 'cause I haven't seen it criticised anywhere.
-
Side charcters have absolutely no character and you don't care about their problems and in my opinion, were gatekeeping me feeling fully absorbed in the world.

Spoiler show sounds awesome. Of course it's about a game I've barely started though

I didn't think that battle was that hard actually.
I found some some of the "emergent" battles more difficult. Two behemoths, some stalkers, a few long legs and stalkers in the mix is an absolute frenzy of a time.
In contrast, I cleared the corrupted rockbreaker zone with the ice sling and hardpoint arrows in about a minute.
Edit: Also hoping we get a P5 and Nier one next. Zelda thankfully doesn't need one (boring, practically non-existent story). Though I think Huber and Ben will cover P5 plenty by themselves so maybe Nier is more apt.
I gotta listen to the podcast. Not really agreeing with some of those complaints, certainly not in that way. The games biggest issue in terms of story telling was how poorly the actual exposition dumps were handled. They needed to be spaced out more, integrated into the world a bit smarter. I don't think optional logs being thrown at you (that you don't need to read, and certainly not at the time because I sure didn't) ties into that complaint all that well.

Is the fixed spoiler mode even up on Youtube? I've been checking periodically but I still haven't been able to watch it yet. They put it up but pulled it down to fix an encoding issue I think.
