New Super Best Friendcast Live!: "Long live Radical Heights."

[@evilmaster7601]

Remind yourself that overconfidence is a slow and insidious killer

[@iller3]

unless you're playing Connect4 then it's not "slow" at all!

[@Yal_Rathol]

ilr or you're pat and your stand instantly punishes overconfidence.

[@Reqqqqqs]

Slowly, gently, this is how a life is taken.

[@Radoh1017]

Watching Pat's face light up at the news is a real treat.

[@Kango234]

I heard this on the podcast first, I'm so glad they uploaded this so I could see their faces.

[@awesometown1000]

Pat dancing on the ashes of people’s failures gives me life

[@iller3]

It's a mixed blessing... Woolie looks like a background Childs in a Sally Struthers ad

[@Nightweaver1]

Pat is fueled by other people's failures.

[@KaptinScuzgob]

ive never seen Pat so excited by another man's failure

[@NeutralGuyDoubleZero]

SoylentRobot He'd rather he lose than you win.

[@RafaelTF2]

what a sad little creature

[@a.g.m8790]

Yea tbh that made me like him alot less. I can’t vibe with people like that

[@iller3]

They need to be careful here b/c TitanFall's studio could be next!

[@awesometown1000]

#Hollyhood To be fair to Pat, Cliffy deserves what happened. His failure was caused mainly by how he acted.

[@jorgamund07]

Where did Pat's beard go? Is he cosplaying as David Cage?

[@RazielBR]

He is David Cage's long lost brother

[@punishedcaptainfrog1993]

I always thought pat and david cage were the same person

[@Soulr3k]

Despite all his Cage, he's still just a Pat in a cage

[@tailedgates9]

No, he's not being skeezy enough to cosplay as David Cage.

[@SchmittPlaythroughFR]

I don't know, Pat *is* pretty skeezy...

[@Fergit_]

Throwing himself off a Cliffy B

[@yourdad9928]

[@wohdinhel]

>69 likes nice

[@6powersofM]

Now THAT'S taking things to radical heights

[@geckowonderful]

I like to think that Woolie just naturally has a lower framerate than other humans

[@mexicangoose6461]

geckowonderful He needs all the framerate he can for fighting games though.

[@malikoniousjoe]

geckowonderful Woolie is animated in the Guilty Gear style where he receives input at +60 fps but he looks like he is animated on 15-24fps to better represent the fighting games he cherishes

[@WonderGamer101]

@@malikoniousjoe Woolie goes in for a high five and accidentally triggers Danger Time.

[@malikoniousjoe]

WonderGamer101 YES

[@Gatsby3737]

My sympathies to the one guy who was REALLY into radical heights. You know there was at least one

[@Blacknight8850]

Founders. Packs. There's gonna be a whole bunch of those guys.

[@spinningchurro]

Here, have video proof of someone who really loves the game and is reduced to tears by its death. 3:54 in the video kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z4vUdKZui554isk

[@N00BSYBORG]

Smash cut to Lawbreakers and Radical Heights turning to dust.

[@zigmus00A]

Cliffy B: I don't feel so good...

[@Zohess]

Pat didn't had to snap his baby fingers

[@Adriangabs]

Overwatch Stone CoD Stone Battlefront Stone Fortnite Stone PUBG Stone *can't think of any other popular battle royale game* Stone

[@N00BSYBORG]

Adriangabs Paladins Stone believe it or not. If Lawbreakers was free like it was originally supposed to be, it might've been able to carve out it's own niche in the hero shooter market next to Paladins.

[@DGuardian666]

Pat is /v/ confirmed

[@aprendizdefegelein]

There was never any doubt in that

[@Kango234]

They've all referenced it multiple times. I think that was how Woolie got spoiled on P4.

[@weirdo3116]

Best way to get news

[@pyropoyo]

DGuardian666 Impossible, he likes Jim Sterling.

[@Zohess]

/v/ has come to.

[@magnumbadguy9354]

Who would've thought that a man failing miserably would be so hype

[@Dasaltwarrior]

Magnum BadGuy Dude did it to himself. Cliffy clearly knows how to design a game, but he's a shite marketing man and every single public statement I've ever seen him make has been the most overconfident, thinks he's bigger shit than he actually is trash that I can't feel bad for him. Its like he's studied a lot about the thing he likes to be competent at it in an academic sort of way, but when it comes down to it he just doesn't have his own personality.

[@magnumbadguy9354]

Thomas Rozhon 100% agreed I have absolutely no sympathy for cliffy but I do feel that it’s shitty that a bunch of people at Boss key have to suffer because of his Hubris

[@Dasaltwarrior]

Magnum BadGuy Oh absolutely, from what I've heard about lawbreakers everybody else on that team deserved better. At the very least, I hope that people can leave that company knowing full well that what happened was not their fault, and that the world knows it.

[@LuxOverHeaven]

Radical heights is the literal H E I G H T of BR games

[@pyropoyo]

I feel bad for the rest of the team, but I’m gonna laugh my ass off forever at Cliffy B. GG, my dude. GG.

[@techpriest8965]

JazzJackrabbit? **face lights up** **leans up from the dusty, rotten throne** Now there is a name I have not heard in a long, long time. Sit child, for I shall tell you a story of JazzJackrabbit 2.

...not if Konami gets there first!

[@WaitHowDidIGetHere]

ilr Get hype for pachinko royale!

[@chiyo-chanholocaust8143]

The "I wanted to make another billion dolar ip" quote is very much like the "John Romero's about to make you his bitch" quote

[@Schirad]

Multiplayer is the siren call of the video game industry. Many devs are tempted to go for it, but all of their studios end up dashed against the rocks. Single-player games keep small studios alive. There are more lonely nerds willing to buy a new single-player game than are willing to shift away from their multiplayer game of choice. Learn this lesson well, Cliffy.

[@RadMatter_]

You know what is the real tragedy? they used the name Boss Key and now that name is lost unless someone can tell me if that name becomes available again after a couple of years, tha is cool name for a dev to be lost like that

[@Kango234]

THat always got me, it's not even like Cliffy is known for "dungeon" style games.

[@dramacheckr]

Luckily Bo$$ Key Yacht$ is still on the market!

[@CommunistPanda1776]

Boss Key's will always be that Mark Brown series on zelda dungeon design to me, so s'all good

[@suddenllybah]

CommunistPanda1776 Yup, For a second I was worried about that. ... Cliffy B just doesn't matter to me.

[@iller3]

Why wait when ** K I L L B O S S ** is already available?

[@Besharps]

I don't feel bad for "Mr. Billion Dollar IP I hate ze Xbox"

[@benjamin7826]

Besharps ONE BILLION DOLLAR IP

[@AdrianArmbruster]

Well I mean he's got moneybags on hand (he invested in the Oculus Rift early on apparently) but Boss Key had to have a Janitor or something that really believed in the project or whatever.

[@NeutralGuyDoubleZero]

Xtreme early access indeed...

[@Lulzor]

I only heard about radical heights because of the 2BFP video. I ended up liking it a surprising amount. Sucks for the devs, they're nice people.

[@wrathofvaughn9309]

Lulzor Is Cliffy B a "nice" person? All this time I thought he was an egotistical shithead who thought he could do no wrong.

[@Lulzor]

No. CliffyB is exactly what you think, an egotistical dickhead who's known to spout the dumbest bullshit. Like in 2008 when he said any pc gamer with decent hardware is a pirate. This is why GoW2 and 3 are not on PC. or that time he threw shade on roger ebert the day he died. There is no shortage of stupid bullshit cliffy has said. He deserves this. His dev's don't.

[@RobRIPDG]

Lulzor not to mention telling a country who didnt get mp servers to basically get fucked. I dont know what he said about Roger but he was probably right, fuck that joke.

[@Griffin1171-love-you-all]

"well received"

[@daysand123]

So is Cliffy B gonna make a kickstarter video where he fades from existence at the end?

[@callmetony4399]

Protip: if you copy the big new trend and its a gigantic failure dont do it twice.

[@lightspeed3983]

Damn, the gang is looking good! Nice job on your work at the gym guys!

[@yourdad9928]

LightSpeed lol no

[@lightspeed3983]

your dad well the last time I saw pat he didn't have a jawline, just a very long wide neck lol so it's a big difference to me XD

[@LabTech41]

I'm calling it: the Zaibatsu killed Cliffy B's career by releasing that LP of Radical Heights that was so shitty they almost forgot to release it. That was the straw.

[@cartersilva5298]

LabTech just like how they made warframe

[@LabTech41]

With the power of [Crazy Talk] ANYTHING is possible.

[@NekoValtz]

I just noticed their mics are color coated to them

[@felicia9567]

Wow that was some Radical Heights right there!

[@LilAnonomus]

Hopefully this was a humbling experience for ol' cliffy.

[@fulcrum6760]

J M No it wasn’t, he quit making video games.

[@TheRealSplitterguy]

Well, CliffyB DID just revolutionize the battle royale genre. He set a new standard for how quickly you can definitively fail in a genre that's so "in" that you could sell an actual pile of shit with a post-it note loosely attached that says "Battle Royale" and have it be a moderate success.

[@GoldenKaos]

A game that killed off its studio almost as fas was Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning. Published on February 7th 2012, and their developer, 38 studios, declared bankruptcy on May 24 of the same year.

[@jj_cabo]

Truly the Dark Souls of company closures. Sorry

[@sofija1996]

Wait another three years so the trend goes completely stale and "out of fashion".

[@Tryhardblackguy]

A battle royale on the Fox engine that plays like MGS5 would be cool not gonna lie.

[@RazielBR]

@Tryhardblackguy (My god that username) It would be AWESOME, you just need it to be released by anyone but Konami.

[@conked944]

We will yall uploed again a podcast

[@EleventhHourPower]

HELL YEAH Matt rockin that Thunderbolts hat Such an awesome run

[@TheStrxggler]

That didn't take long. GG Cliffy. No RE.

[@dj-d2030]

I like some of the ideas in Radical Heights. I hope someone picks up the IP and finishes it. It drops you in a random location, zones off drop zones, and you have to buy your weapons. Combine that with the game show esque theme and there is a game in the making

[@sascachuhuan]

I thought that Pubg had a unique mechanic on the area closing in after a couple of minutes to force people to stop camping, but then i remembered that the online mode of MGS4 had a mode that was exactly PUBG, except that you start with a loadout instead of finding weapons on the map and that mode also had an alternate version were everyone is invicible except for your weapon floating in the air and your shadow if there was light

[@aidoomcgoo7916]

I thought that said Long live Radical Entertainment. I would be right their with them praying at the grave of the dudes that made Simpsons Hit & Run whilst praying at the statue of Alex Mercer in the corner.

[@epicgamingrevolution2935]

Can't wait for Clockwork Of Armed Conflict.

[@adamwilson4747]

But what about Radical Highway??

[@kira-dk2mx]

There should be a rant series where you guys just shit on games like Radical Heights. The exuberance Patt exhibits when shitting on Cliffy "the bitch" B is cute and heart warming.

[@aprendizdefegelein]

[@yukionnaslayer1]

This is the dark souls of podcasts

[@yourdad9928]

michael yeah loved and praised by fat kids who aren't popular or good at interesting things lmao

[@yukionnaslayer1]

your dad FUCK YOU DAD I CAN DO WHAT I WANT

[@furyberserk]

Difficult and challenging, but fair.

[@VGHistory1]

Also, though I cannot give specific details as to how I will say that I felt the reverberations of Lawbreakers failing/dying first hand. This was extremely rough to go through :(

[@BlargleWargle]

Also yeah Pat that is a dumb question. People gave the Yogscast money for a game and they had zero experience making games, and then they basically stole from their fans with that. TGWTG got money for a game show and they had no experience making those, and they only put out like a ninth of the promised episodes.

[@steelblake]

I´m sorry for his dog but nothing else

[@mexicangoose6461]

mauro banegas Lawbreakers and Radical Heights killed a dog, that was enough reason to shut down the company.

[@jerrymcghoulberry355]

You know... I feel a little bad for all the developers that worked on these games. But at the same time I'm having a real difficult time having any sympathy. There was alot of talent around there. But you know what other studio has alot of talent? FromSoftware. Now I know that everyone is tired of comparing things to Dark Souls but fuck you I've been playing Bloodborne recently and I'll do whatever I want! FromSoftware has alot of talent. When you look at a FromSoftware game it always has a unique style and a unique story and gameplay and whatever. It gave them an identity. Boss Key never had an identity. Law Breakers was not unique. Radical Heights was not unique. They blended together with other popular games trying to make money off of trends. Don't follow trends! Make a new trend! Stand out and grab people's attention!

[@songokuatom]

So Patt also saw Crowbat's Law Breaker video

[@chiyo-chanholocaust8143]

"Nexon...i don't feel too good."

[@furyberserk]

The 3rd Runner Should remake vindictus with better quality.

[@a.g.m8790]

I hate this. I hate when things go sideways for people because I know exactly what that feels like. Anybody that’s has ever run into an extended rough patch in their life knows exactly what I’m talking about. It’s like no matter what you do your life seems to always be 1 fuck up away from total disaster and the worse part about it is that it feels like you’ll never get out out of that situation. Of course you do because not even bad things last forever but goddamn does it feel *TERRIBLE* when you’re in it. For me it was 19-23 where I was going absolutely nowhere and at my worst. I’ll be 25 next month and I’m doing great now and happier than I’ve ever been but I’ll never forget how dead I was inside less than 2 years ago. I wish those kinds of feelings on nobody and if you are in a rough spot like that beat at those fucking walls a little bit more each day and I promise you’ll get out and feel so much better on the other side

[@pleaseclap7890]

Congrats to Lawbreakers for now looking like a success by comparison to Concord.

[@bagamingshow]

BOLTS OF BATTLE!

[@MrLego3160]

why did cliff blezinski bring up his dying dog in a notice he was making a few dozen people jobless.

[@montgomerynovak2194]

it would depend on the type of game, like woolie said, it depends on what he shows

[@Kango234]

Thanos in Fortnite is why, until someone who actually works for Capcom or Marvel come out and explain what happened, I will never believe all those rumors about Disney sabotaging Infinite. Other than the X-men stuff, but I also doubt Disney told them to say all that stupid shit about functions.

[@Gama1201]

Kango234 The big difference here is Fortnite is much bigger then MVC3(The better selling and more popular entry in the franchise). An agreement Between Marvel and Epic right now is like two people shaking hands and an agreement between Marvel and Capcom is more like Capcom getting put in a strangle hold until they do what Marvel tells them to

[@Kango234]

I know that, that last part was a joke. The thing people do claim is what Pat mentioned about Marvel characters having to look and act a certain way, and there's also that vague comment from one of the Evo organizers about lack of support that everyone latched on to despite having any evidence.

[@0rriAndroid]

Divine intervention

[@CntRational]

Apparently, CliffyB didn't tell any of his employees that the company was shutting down, and they found out via the press release. What the fuck.

[@vivena9]

It's pandering to weebs.

[@kingcaesar3693]

The character designs is very anime. Like i count Avatar as a anime despite it being American, because it's characters designs are very eastern influenced.

[@kingcaesar3693]

Anime to me is large eyes on girls and more human like drawing techniques. Example is the face or how the body is proportioned. A character from say Family Guy is not anatomically correct, and i'd lump into cartoon. Anime characters have a more realistic design usually with a very deliberate cuteness to the females being emphasised. Cartoons have unnatural bodys with large heads, or 3 fingers and a thumb. There's also the way they make characters behave through drawings. Such as a anger vain popping out on their head, or a sweat drop to signify awkward moments for anime that we don't see in western art often in shows or comics. To reiterate a character like Tracer would fit perfectly in a anime style with no editing, but Homer Simpson would require work to make him look that way.

[@kingcaesar3693]

Yeah i'd probably put Disney in there. G.I Joe? No.

[@wolfen9113]

Gears of war is still a thing... Oh wait he bailed on that.

[@shinesparker1169]

Radical Heights? More like Radical Shites.

[@swagtasticpanda]

His arrogance aside, I'm sad to see Cliff and his company go the way groot did @ the end of infinity war. Similar to mvcI, i think the gameplay for lawbreakers was legitimately a joy to control. It's a shame to hear about his dog's health too.
