>melee is for brainlets

It’s clearly the superior combat style.

Are people just trying to have regular threads now having to set up their threads as intentional derails just so that they can have a discussion? Like OP couldn't just have a "lets discuss the Yogscast before they became popular" thread, they had to make it a bait and switch just to get peoplle's attention lest it not qualify?

Its been like that for years.

wrong

>he doesn't tank

Man that picture just sent me back to the seventh grade

>Not just doing what your opponent does
Nothing says "OUT FUCKING SKILLED" like beating them at their own game.

Not this badly, though granted I'd say it's been this bad since about late 2016 but this is just an extra bit of worseness I'd rather not have to deal with.

But th-

What are your favorite ranged weapon types in games?

yfw

>minecraft LP
These were never good, the Warcraft shit was fun though.

SoI was my entire childhood. I was mad that they never concluded it for ages

Man, Simon and Lewis were pretty spot on entertainers but I can see how Simon might of been an asshole when he wasn't being recorded, in retrospect.

BRING BACK YOGPOD YOU FUCKS

>The cowards fighting style
>superior

sips was based as fuck

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaah

>underage pls go

he's fucking insufferable now

I started watching it when I was younger, the last episode aired when I was in college. I was barely watching them still by that point but I guess I was still sad that it never came to an end

youtu.be/ML7PD989l3s?t=3m20s
This furry rant was 9 years ago.

Triforce has had more episodes and less than a fifth of the memorable moments. It's crazy how terrible Sips and Pyrion are.

yeah pyrionflax is a no-name internet friend of theirs who needs to stop reading his shitty fanfic at the end of every episode just to meet recording length times. Literally the reason why I dropped them

Sips and Pyrion just don’t have the chemistry Simon and Lewis had.

How the fuck is ranged combat superior and not considered for brainlets? In every RPG I've played, Ranged combat is usually the most brain dead, broken, and easy combat style in the game. If anything only casualfags pick ranged combat.

>Simon rants about furries
>time passes
>HEY GUYS HERE'S SOME MLP FANART FROM DIABLO HA HA COME ONE COME ALL
>channel goes downhill

>put SoI on hiatus because an update to Minecraft broke one of their mods
>don't bother trying to figure out a fix themselves or keep making it without using the broken mod (that was insignificant, the mod only got used a couple of times the whole series)
>avoid mentioning it afterwards because making a machinima like that is too hard
>on occasions it does get mentioned (like this past Christmas) don't say one way or another that it's dropped; instead imply that it might make a comeback soon
What a bunch of assholes
>the Yogventures disaster
>one of their employees raping an underage fan and getting her pregnant
>Simon going insane with politics
>continually introducing new channels of literally whos
Lewis is the only decent guy there anymore, and that's just because he stopped giving a shit.

I fucking totally forgot about YOGVENTURES HAHAHAH
but what the fuck, rape? who and when?

Try dark messiah of the might & magic

He stopped reading Bodega around episode 30-ish. He said that he was going to keep writing stories and compile them into an anthology that he could sell.

It's absolutely shit and people keep kissing his ass over his terrible writing, but one of the few genuinely good Triforce moments came from Bodega. A middle school English teacher had his students write their own Bodegas, and they were all delightfully terrible.

Best skill.

>stealth is shit
>stealing is shit
>pick rogue/theif anyway even

rest in peace granny bacon

This. Melee and mages usually have a more active role in combat since they're almost always in constant danger and doing crowd control or providing direct support. Rangelets just spam the same shit over and over at whatever looks the meanest.

>I have no function but i must play

Ridgedog and Sjin are both semi-infamous for going after underage fans at conventions. Ridgedog got one pregnant and dodged the child support so hard he moved countries.

is there a summary of this please? i need to see this for my own eyes

Hooooooly fuck

>Ridgedog
bullshit
proof now

Single shot carabines, pump action shotguns, throwing spear, throwing dagger, bows

haha holy shit when did this happen?

>ridgedog
hahaha
I remember when the Voxelbox died because everyone there started fauning over a woman who was also a scalie who eventually ditched them.

man early those early letsplay channels were some fucking shit. the amount of drama and scandals is just unreal

youtube.com/watch?v=Nxk8qzALbpU Around the 3:54:00 mark.

FUUUUUUUUUCK THAT WAS VERBATIM

Holy fucking shit, right in the childhood, i always liked sjin as much a lewis

Whatever happened to the Yogscast?

still chugging along, some play other game, some still play minecraft, view counts in the shitter but they have a loyal fanbase still

It was an ex who was bitter and sjin was a bit creepy. Not really that big of a scandal except for tumblr going crazy over it. It was around the time tobuscuz got accused of doing horrible things.

However Ridgedog did some horrible stuff.

Are all the fans...like...children or people who grew up with them?

Ridgedog was always a fucking faggot, glad they kicked him out instantly.

youtube.com/watch?v=yJSSKc75vRA
Used to be all children, but now it's more of a split because their audience grew up.

>there was a time when they were once the no1 gaming channel
How the mighty have fallen

I... honestly dunno, i'm pretty sure the latter, since they haven't changed their content much, unlike say pewdiepie.

I hope they permanently feel embarrassed for the shitshow that was them desperately trying to get as popular and make as much money as possible, like, remembering that stupid thing you did as a kid but for the years they thought it was a good idea.

I remember minecraft lets play part 1 like it was yesterday, here is the blast from the past Sup Forums
youtu.be/4UdEFmxRmNE

Probably, imagine when their kids grow up and find it, and other kids at school bring it, having hasbeen youtube stars riding on ancient cringey trends for views

>Lewis is the only decent guy there anymore

Wrong, this guy is.

same, Sjin and Sips was a fucking great duo.

lewis is decent, sips is pretty fucking cool still, and isn't a manchild either
>ywn watch sips and sjin play tekkit as a kid again
sad days

incredibly smug with a double digit IQ

>game offers ranged
>all the weapons suck shit even when upgraded

But Mimes from Final Fantasy replicate allies. You might want to change your job to Blue Mage...

Are there any combat options that don't fit in the "Melee - Ranged - Magic" triangle? I'm having trouble thinking of any.

magic is too wide for that, i could only come up with summoning and that's magic

>every time anyone goes "oh hey I remember the yogscast, I wonder what happened to them" there's a 75% chance they'll dredge up all the stupid drama bullshit and the clear evidence of them becoming total sellouts only for it to bite them on the ass
I'll take it

Engineers. They've got their gadgets and shit.
But if you're a fag you could say 'well that gadget runs up to the enemy and explodes so its melee and that gadget shoots little cogwheels so its ranged'.

FUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

everything is a lie

god fucking damn you just don't know with some people

>only for it to bite them on the ass
they have a whole youtube media empire

I feel ya man

>ridgedogs daughter(s) will see that livestream clip one day
karma in action

generally anything that's a little convoluted.

Sniper rifles, semi-auto pistols, and assault rifles are all boring garbage and should stop existing in games

>everyone else plays pvp properly
>they just make a giant dirt sign saying 'Eat Shit' and hide in a hole

>they survive to the end anyway

It should be split between Close Quarters Magical, Close Quarters Mundane, Long Range Magical, Long Range Mundane.

This is the Police was his last good series. Now he's just a generic twitch sellout throwing a spergout every time something goes remotely wrong and reading donations while twitch backseat plays whatever he's streaming.

Slingshots are strangely appealing to me, but you don't see them that often in vidya.

Slings > Slingshots

>you will never be a 16 year old angry at Spore and discovering Minecraft through watching Simon and Lewis on survival island again

A bunch of washed up scamsters.

Simon has quite a lot of mental issues. He was severely depressed and suicidal for a while, which is why he pretty much stopped appearing.

>40 year old man with no life stuck making minecraft lets plays for children
i cant say im surprised

If a game has an option of big two handed swords I choose that option and never deviate.

I'm a simple man.

heheheheheh

...

Don't forget fat, balding and forced into the role of 'idiot sidekick'.
It's a shame because I really like Simon when he's given permission to be himself.

Original yogpod where he, hannah and lewis played D&D were on my rotation for years

>he doesnt play VR stealth
its kinda boring without gadgets and shit though, the wall climbing is fun 2bh

>Simon going insane with politics
What did he do

That Fallout commentary was top tier.

I remember way the fuck back when he made some snide remark to TB on twitter that pretty much burned the bridge between him and yogscast, but his twitter has always been just a cesspool of uninformed opinions

YouTube has become a joke.
Not only because of the recent adpocalypse and general sellout of the site as a whole by it's creators years ago, but because youtubers who've been around long enough to see this happen have mostly lost the spark they had when they started, and only carry on doing it because it became their "job" and if they stopped they'd have to go out in the real world and find an actual job.

What happened to the days when people made videos on youtube because they had an idea or wanted to share their passions with the world? It's just a contest between popular people fighting for their piece of the pie now.

>What happened to the days when people made videos on youtube because they had an idea or wanted to share their passions with the world?
they still exist you just dont see them because you only see whats popular

People with ideas and passions to share still need to pay bills. YouTube is big enough now that a balance between the two needs to be struck and it tends to favor the side nobody wants.

Simon used to be great when he had permission to be himself, but over the past couple of years he's become a huge asshole and an SJW.

i remember the tactics advance games letting you steal all the shit from your enemy. items, armor even abilities.

maybe thats who he is, ever think of that?
