A lot of folks think the oppositeHello Era! I've been following KF for a while now and really thought their content has been improving over the last year with the new format, rotating hosts etc, but the patreon figures seem to be in decline month after month. It just doesn't make sense to me. Anyone have any insight into this? (this is not a troll post)
So do millions of other people
I never check their patreon, so this is the first I've heard of this. I take it this is the reason for the increased amount of ads on shows?Hello Era!

Millions do, plenty don't and nothing wrong with that either way.
They fawn over each of them though. A little critical thinking would not go amiss when it comes to their movie reviews.
On another note, I've given it months now, and I'm still not a fan of the KF Podcast. Much preferred the old topic based GOG format.
Nope, I have not seen that one.I'm guessing you came back from the FFH review to say this? Which would be weird to me considering they had plenty of critism and weren't so glowing on it.

Weird thing on the gamescast today - Andrea makes the argument that the thing that solidified PlayStation's victory this generation, or at least the marker of it beginning(?) was the release of Bloodborne in the launch window of the PS4.
I don't know, it was a weird response to what Tim was saying at the time, which I kinda thought was right on.
Edit: nevermind, Tim looked it up and clarified everything a little later on.
What do you all think of We Have Cool Friends? Lot of people calling it the best thing they've ever done but as I have only heard of like one guest so far I haven't listened to it yet.
I'll watch them when I'm desperate and I'm sure I'll really enjoy them. Right now I just don't feel like getting over the hump of accepting listening to a podcast with a non kf personWhat do you all think of We Have Cool Friends?

Because it came up on Games Daily today, I have to ask the question; do you guys play your Switch more in docked or handheld mode? Personally, I play docked 99% of the time. I couldn't imagine wanting to play most of those games on a dinky little screen, ESPECIALLY when I'm at home. Andrea complaining about the Switch's screen made me laugh because she could literally just play her Switch docked and get that.
I'm waiting for Greg's thoughts on the #BringBackNationalDex movement. WE NEED TO KNOW WHAT SIDE OF THIS FIGHT YOU'RE ON, MILLER.Man I'm about to sub just to get that gamescast today... I need to hear Greg talk about Pokemon Go.
I NEED IT
lmaoThe thumbnail for the KF Podcast today is fucking ridiculous. Super annoying to have stuff like that pop up on my sub feed.
Yes, it's always like that. Things like this are why their Patreon subs are tanking. They need to dial things back and focus on quality rather than constant engagement with their audience for the sake of it.I don't think I've ever watched Screencast but it came on just now on an auto-play. The first few minutes (all I watched) are... almost absurdly low energy. Is it usually like that? Because I really don't know how they can think that's acceptable material to put out there, especially if they have any intention of growing their audience.

I'm quite shocked at how poor it seemed, actually. They really have to shake things up (again) because right now it's like they're a shade of themselves from just a couple of years ago. Seem completely checked out.
My only real issue is I think it's too long of a show. It always seems to end up anywhere between 70 to 80 minutes. Should be 30 to 50 minutes. Also, I know why they don't do it, but I really miss when they would watch trailers together on the old C&GL/KFMS. It's not worth the risk of a copywrite strike. Still miss it.
I miss this too, the old watching trailers and more general talking about what they watched or currently watching, seems to all be pushed to Screencast and comes off more unnatural to me.
Spot on. They aren't grumpy, jaded fucks like he was in the last two months of his tenure, but they seem very burnt out. I know it's been mentioned here ad nauseum, but this is an inevitable result of the constant travelling.They all feel like how Colin did before he left. Just checked our, low energy and it makes for bad watching as a viewer.
