mega64 is objectively not funny and can only do video game related public stunts

their personalities and comedic talent won't take them far. I mean, I didn't laugh once at their DVD specials that I stupidly purchased during my "mega64 is funny"phase

I like Mega64 but personally I've felt that they're a lot funnier when they're just doing random bits and talking with each other (basically the podcast) about stuff rather than an actual scripted video

If unfunny hacks like Andre and Hyde can get a show, I don't see why Mega64 can't

You are an indescribably huge retard. Please get off my television and film board.

I was actually just thinking about how grateful I am that mega64 never really took off outsdie their small fanbase.

I hope they don't try to rip off what Sam did, business-wise. They are chump change compared to MDE

Sam Hyde has talent for mutliple forms of comedy not le epic pranks I am a le reference characters

I used to love Mega64 but maybe I just grew out of them, like everyone else apparently did considering their videos barely get views anymore.

/thread

I agree with this except switch derrick and eric

Shawn and Garrett would be the best to just hang out with for a day though

maybe Mega64 will grow up, someday. aren't these guys like 30+, trying to be Jackass™ Lite? there's no depth, and only slightly less juvenile than a fart joke

Shawn isn't as funny as he used to be, that time he got drunk on the podcast is still his best moment
I believe they tried to make a movie or a show and went to LA to meet with a famous actor/production company but it didn't work out

I'm curious how they get by so well, the main 3 seem to live pretty well, they must make a lot more than you'd think off merch and shit

>cancel ATHF
>do more random live action shows

t. williams street

it's kind of like watching a show you used to watch as a kid, as an adult. Only then you realize how terrible it actually is/was

Nah they peaked a few years ago and are pretty much just treading water at this point. That being said treading water is still paying like 4 full time salaries and their warehouse dicking around with your mates.

I like them and all but i can't see them really expanding beyond where they are now even with patreon they've really only done more of the same.

They've found their niche and the only one i can see ever wanting to push the boundaries is Derrick, but even he is losing his edge.

Yeah Derrick is by far the most talented, he does or used to do music videos for start up bands in San Diego

The reason Mega64 never "got big" is because they don't fucking do anything. They do the podcast and sell merch to their autist nofriends fanbase and occasionally put out a video. You know, the thing that brought attention to them in the first place

from what I know shirt sales can add up pretty fucking well. they sell their shirts at $20 a piece not adding shipping, and a shirt usually prints at about $7-10 depending on the brand/colors/quality. i think it's safe to say they make around $13 every shirt, and they sell even more shit than just shirts. I wonder how much they charge when they do commercials for people.

how many videos do you expect them to put out? two videos a week?

reminder that Mega64 was right about the joker laugh

They put out videos on a regular basis, what are you talking about?

they've talked on their podcast that they've been tied with various Hollywood deals since 2010, and nothing has happened yet. it's all been behind-the-scenes stuff that they haven't been able to talk about and probably a lot more fun and rewarding to work on than god of war parodies

Pretty much.
All of the big YouTubers have a release schedule. Mega64 just put a video out when they feel like it, which is fine.
Maybe they never really wanted to be a big thing.

They're not memey enough for the new batch of vidyakids so they'll very slowly just fade into obscurity with a random 500k-1mil view video popping up every once and again.

They need to do more stuff with actual devs, that's always been their strong suit even if it only happens at GDC.

They have pretty good humor actually. Specially rocco. His solo channel has some brettygud stuff. The best thing they have ever done is that videogame count down at the end of the year.

These fuckers are the biggest hypocrites on the fucking internet.

>Shit's on Let's Play's
Start doing Let's Play's

>Shit on Patreon
Get's Patreon

Rocco is also a self righteous douche .

>Start doing Let's Play's

What?

What would be the reason to not be a hypocrite?

Their friend dimension bullshit which blew up in their faces.

>unfunny hack
>Andre

You just revealed your ignorance, Dad

You clearly don't know what a lets play is, but whatever.

Videogames aren't funny, they're not even interesting anymore.

How are these fuckers not on welfare yet? Their videos get so few views.

rocco is good enough on his own to justify a show

Really faggot?
youtube.com/watch?v=hqnXpwr2Idg

They're a bunch of good guys and they deserve all the praise they get.
However, I don't think they'd fare so well on [as] right now next to more radical shows like Eric Andre and MDE.

Their podcast is far and beyond the best thing they put out.

>rather than an actual scripted video
This
I've been watching their 24 hour twitch stream and their skits are kind of lame
When they're guest on shows or talk at cons they can be pretty funny

Yeah, Lets Plays are like full playthroughs go look up literally any and every other 'lets player' and you'll see they have like hundreds of episodes on a specific game that spans hours upon hours. A 20 minute video once a week is hardly comparable.

Whatever Rocco

I don't know who these people are

No they dont commit school shootings and mass murders like sam hyde.

Honestly having been a background extra in a couple vids, meeting them in person multiple times and just hanging around their inner circle there's no way they'd make it. They're still ultimately awkward manchildren. The way Rocco and Derrick surround themselves with their female fans to make up for the lack of female attention they got in school is pathetic let alone the fact that they both DATE the same fans who are way younger than them.

Shawn and Garrett are the only two who aren't shitty people largely because Shawn is a normie and Garrett is just too good natured to be a shithead

I knew Rocco was a creep with the fans, but Derrick is too?

Are there examples or stories about Rocco or Derrick being creeps?

Yeah there's been some redhead chick beta-orbiting Mega64 for years I'd see her at every event. One Gamedays I went to she and her friends were on Eric's nuts literally hanging on his arm the entire time.

Was around their "inner circle" at AX this year and saw that same redhead hanging on Derrick and found out they're dating now. Made me laugh. She finally got one I guess.

Idk that just reeks to me of being maladjusted when the only way you can talk to girls is through your minimal e-celeb fame. Why do you think they both hide it? Because Rocco was like 10 years older than the fan he we all know he was dating who was barely legal at the time.

But it's not even just fucking their groupies. I've heard all kinds of shit from people who are in there close.

No, RLM.

Mike is actually willing to move to Atlanta unlike a lot of LA/NYC fags.

I looked at their channel. They've been doing this for over a decade now.

Eh, I don't think a movie review show would do well

>But it's not even just fucking their groupies. I've heard all kinds of shit from people who are in there close.

Go on

haven't they done some movies though? I think they made one about a cop, it looked like a ""cheesy 80's film""

Not same user but Bryan is a mega creep too. Multiple guys/girls in the community talked about how he tried hitting on them/their girlfriends through twitter and Facebook in a /v thread once. It was pretty comical. One user mentioned it and then another was like wtf that happened to my girlfriend too. He did that to me too! etc. etc.

Yeah, Derrick is pretty much the only talented one as far as I can tell.

>Best human being
Shawn

>Nicest
Garrett

>Biggest piece of shit
Rocco

>Who cares
Everyone else

Heard directly from someone you see on the podcast every week that a lot of them don't like and/or get along with Rocco most of the time and talk a lot of shit behind his back because he's literally a manchild who has to have things go his way. Which you can honestly pick up on watching the podcasts and behind the scenes things.

I was super embarrassed one time when I brought my friend over to my place to watch the Version 1 dvd. It was around their version 3 era so I was sort of expecting that quality and was really shocked when it was like some high school kids com-tech class tier show.

What do American consider a "creep"? A man who is dating a woman younger than him? Or specifically some loser who goads younger AND stupider women to get with him through some leverage?

I see this term often but still do not understand

>Lets Plays are like full playthroughs
Go look up the channel literally named 'LetsPlay'. Tell me how many full playthroughs you see.

Yeah I definitely get that vibe from Rocco.

It's good to hear Shawn and Garrett are as decent as they seem in the videos. I like the normie, married, dad perspective that Shawn brings to the group.

the latter in this case.

Lol one of Mariel's hot instagram pics has a comment from bryan being like "youre gonna get so many pervy comments. guys are such assholes am i right?"

stock is way down

Do you think one of them fucked Pallam?

>Or specifically some loser who goads younger AND stupider women to get with him through some leverage?

This

I've heard Rocco is notorious for doing this.

Pretty sure they have a broadcast contract with Twitch that'd be in conflict.

Both really. Young barely legal/early 20s girls are insanely immature and easy to take advantage of. Maladjusted and predatory losers prey on the allure of "older men." I'm sure you've heard the line from girls that all guys their age are immature and that's why they date older. But really it's all about status and needing to feel grown up. My cousin and her friends just turned 18 and at the last family get together they were talking about how one of them was talking to a 36 year old man and ver batim >"Omg I need to stop really he's 36 but he's so sweet and NO he does not have any kids I can't believe you asked me that but really what is wrong with me *laughs*"

To tl;dr it though there's a reason these older men can't find anything in their own age group. They're dysfunctional. Rocco is exactly that. IIRC the most famous one wasn't even 18 yet when he started talking to her. The dude is 30.

>it's another mega64 thread that devolves into """insider""" drama rumors and armchair psychology

fuck the fans

They started at the same time as rooster teeth, but RT got more popular than them. So obviously they are pissed that no one is paying attention to them no more.

Hes also got that whole self hating / need to prove himself as an artist thing too, whenever they do something new or different in their videos 9/10 times its mentioned in the podcast that Derrick wanted to do something different.

Literally the only bad thing I've heard about Garrett is that he isn't actually straight edge. Which who gives a fuck if he smokes some pot here and there anyway. It's what anyone would immediately think upon seeing him for the first time anyway.

They're super bitter nowadays

cant exactly blame the guy. i dont think its all that bad but its definitely not very respectable

yeah man fucking an older dude is totally like a fly falling into a spiders web who knows what kind of kinky gross consensual sex they have, its very wrong objectively

This is the correct ranking

Nobody is saying it's illegal. Just that young sluts are dumb.

youtube.com/watch?v=2lq9P9xuWbs

Who was in the wrong?

That's funny, literally the only bad thing I've head about Garrett is that he IS straight edge

Eric. He is and always will be second or even third fiddle.

He flew too close to the sun and got burned.

i didnt mention legality, just pointing out it's not exactly the disgusting rapey predatory thing it was made out to be. it's pathetic but that's about it

Mega64 are internet has beens and they know it.

It's weird that he would say he is if he isn't. But if tokin here and there is the worst thing about him, that's not so bad

Where's the link to that podcast after Rocco got caught cheating on a fan with another fan and then someone called in and asked the podcast about cheating on people and Rocco looked like he was about to throw up the entire time.

Not really at all. They've really mellowed out ever since their tenth anniversary in 2013.
I think they've come to terms with where they are and where they'll be in the relevant sense.
Hell, they even refer to themselves as the cockroaches of the internet because they're not big but they're somehow still around.

They really were bitter and jaded around 2008-2010, however.

What does Mega 64 do? Is their podcast their bread and butter? Only thing I've watched from them is maybe 1 and a half episodes worth of the podcast and the video where the dude completely shits on Linkara. Do they do sketches? I'd probably like them they seem like funny dudes.

Why did he start pushing him in the first place

It's predatory as fuck by the literaly definition of it. Old guys don't just happen to meet young barely legal teens. They know what they're doing. But I mean these girls have to learn one way or another. They always do.

Has he ever said he is straight edge though? I can't remember it happening.

He has a straight edge tattoo and is known publicly for it because of being associated with Mega64 so I assume it's kind of a thing where he doesn't want it causing drama so he keeps it secret.

Americans are weird, man. Girls start gold digging as soon as they become legal, but that's somehow ok, but when normal people meet who have a 5-10 year age difference, the guy is a creep? Because he's not pucking up some beat up overripe 29 yo, right?

You guys are so out there, it is perplexing to us.

>Old guys don't just happen to meet young barely legal teens.

I mean, you do if you host an internet show targeted primarily to Teens / Young Adults.

>20 years old
>barely legal teens

dude you have been de-balled by insencere political ideologies

youtu.be/J95GYXeFRaQ

DOOD DINDU NUFFIN

>that's somehow ok

Literally nowhere in this thread has anyone given even the hint that they believe this. Nor does pointing out dudes in their early 30s trying to fuck young fangirls might seem off color imply that its okay for young fangirls trying to fuck low-tier internet celebs for money or status is a good thing.

Not even American but you sound like a needlessly smug cunt.

Normal people meeting who happen to have an age difference is one thing. Someone who serially bangs barely legal fans of his webshow is another.

But that's just a common thing in society in general. 18 and 28 is weird to people but 38 and 48 less so.

And I'm talking barely legal strictly by the law's definition. But even outside of that have you ever talked to an 18 year old girl? Last girl I dated was almost 30, quite a bit older than me. And it was night and fucking day from the 18-21 year olds I'm used to.

I don't remember that, I thought he liked skipped two podcasts in a row or something after it all got found out

E-celeb drama aside, I still like their videos and think it's cool what they've been able to do and who they've worked with since doing public access.

Shawn and Garrett are still the best of them though.

He may have but whichever podcast he DID show up to after that someone called in and asked a question about cheating.

Kevin knew and was visibly uncomfortable. Rocco wanted to kill himself. But I don't think Derrick knew because he went on a fucking tirade shitting on people who cheat with Rocco sitting right next to him on the couch. It was pure podcast gold. So bad that they were banning anyone in the chat who even hinted at what was going on.

>But that's just a common thing in society in general.

In your weird nanny state, maybe. But hey, at least you get all that through porn, right? That's ok. But don't try and have a healthy libido yourself, you creep.

>Last girl I dated was almost 30, quite a bit older than me.

for what purpose

>fat white guy is a pedophile

Who saw this coming?

Lol I want to see that
Knowing Derrick he did it on purpose
