I much prefer the garage as a viewer but can understand why they want to get out of it. I wouldn't want to work out of a garage if I didn't have to.
But still, I like the garage.

Congrats to the EZA folks! I always enjoy watching their reactions to E3 trailers and they have a usually positive but grounded look on the industry. Glad to see they're doing great!
Yeah, I hope they don't tell anyone they moved into a studio, and then on a group stream, everything looks normal until the camera pulls back and it turns out they've been streaming from an exact replica of the garage inside a studio the whole stream.
That setting gave them a completely unique and endearing appeal that would have been absent otherwise - at least initially. I'll miss it, too.
When they got the table Sophie's appearances were reduced by like 95%, which was a shame, but I got used to it. I guess we'll get used to Corporate Allies.
I think just mentally the sense of "leaving home to go to work in the studio" matters a lot to everybody and energy levels. Back on GT it seemed there was the sense that the crew could really just fool around because in a sense it wasn't someone's personal space.
love em, unfortunately gonna have to unsub from their Patreon next week since I'm a little tight on cash after upgrading my PC
We already have an idea of what Corporate Allies will look like. Ever heard of GameTrailers?
(Don't expect all the old bells and whistles, of course...)
I prefer the garage too, but a studio allows all of them to be able to collaborate more with wach other since they are in a working environment
Congrats and hope they keep it going! Love these guys and their genuine passion and enthusiasm.
Even better!
Even better!
I also worry that moving into to a studio will kill the comfy, feel good "homey" vibe of their programming. They need to make sure that the studio they create is the exact opposite of the sterile, corporate "desk" they had at GT.
Make it a home away from home with a couch, shelves, nick-nacks, and Lightening standup just with better lighting, wiring, mics and room.

Wut.
How the eff did they reach 52k within like a few days lol.
EZA is awesome because they seem so genuine and knowledgeable about games. Their freaking video about talking about who won E3 awards is far more enjoyable than other guys similar to EZA make videos about. I won't drop names but EZA is amazing... especially compared to certain other guys.
So yeah. I'm happy they are growing. It's totally deserved.

I've been a patron since a few months after the start. Love to see them just getting bigger and bigger. They really are passionate and knowledgeable, and seem like such genuine people that it's impossible not to wish the best for them.
ps please add EZAnime 52k tier

So happy they finally reached the goal and glad to have been supporting them every month since they first started!
While I think this is a fair concern, I honestly would be floored if this were the case. Right now they are operating out of Jones' garage. While Jones is a damn saint for allowing Easy Allies to exist and use his garage as much as they have, it's still inherently awkward and the availability is much more limited than a studio space. Right now they are using Jones' "space," a studio will be "their" space. They can customize it however they want and have much more room so they won't constantly be trying to overcome the shortcomings of a garage that isn't made for production and having to constantly shuffle things around.
From what I understand, they get together on Tuesday's and maybe one other day a week (I'm sure some weeks more than that), but they use those days as marathon filming sessions and they do most of their organization not in person. A bummer of this situation means they have basically zero wiggle room for spontaneity and that is when EZA/GT has put out some of their best stuff. They've miraculously been able to make this work, but it would do wonders for their production if they were working at a dedicated studio that they hang out daily. For example, being able to accomplish multiple things such as filiming/streaming/editing/voice-over/whatever else at one time would be huge for them. While Kyle's Box Peek epic is remarkable, if he were doing it at a studio with assistance I'm sure it would be much, much further along. Having coworkers actually present allows them the possibility of much more multiple ally streams and for hands-on assistance if anything is needed.
While there is a worry about a "sterile" studio, I just doubt this. The future EZA studio they will be their own bosses and this will be their own space. Back in the day they had to appease their corporate overlords and share the studio (Jones said he knew some people that would likely want to make use of the potential EZA studio as well, but it's obviously no where to the degree that GT had to back in the day).
And c'mon, of course Sophie is going to be allowed in the studio.
This is going to be worse than when the Corporation was running the WWE back in the day...
Kiddin'
They really should set another goal for like 55k, something like: "We need assurance that we'll have money to maintain a studio"
Yeah but it would offer a reason to bring the numbers up. Goals exist for reason.
55k. Huber will watch 10 more Will Ferrell movies on livestream.
