TriForce vs Chilluminati - Express VPN vs NordVPN

[@heyojayo8642]

Nord got hacked before. Dunno bout Xpress

[@BalthorYT]

Choosing neither and not wasting your money on something largely pointless is the winner here

[@Daniel-bb9qj]

Heyo Jayo I thought it only got 'hacked' because someone literally broke into their servers but idk if that’s true

[@Rob-rr4yp]

I can't believe they got a sponsor after they talked so much shit about podcasts with ads.

[@tylerjirkovsky482]

And also the main channel has been sponsored by NordVPN multiple times but the ExpressVPN sponcers the triforce and lewis is like: I have never yoused NordVPN ever i only youse ExpressVPN, like wtf step-bro

[@C4P_10]

maybe you should support them on patreon so they dont have to

[@davidholgate123]

It was more a case of him mentioning his affiliate link than actually being sponsored. That's 4 ways this channel is monetized now. I know times are hard but come on lol but if it means they don't dessert this channel randomly like they do with others though, then I'm happy to put up with it!

I love how Lewis usually high roads the others because he's a vegan, but he's the first to bring up killing baby pigs cause their meat is better... WTF lulu

[@JamieAubrey]

Gratz on the sponsor but why is Lewis changing his location from the UK to the UK ?

[@shpeter1019]

Blatantly a script from the sponsor written by an american

[@That__Guy]

because he still in japan

[@xAugustx11]

Simple, because he’s a frog

[@wild6702]

I'm in the UK and I put my VPN to UK all the time. It means my IP is hidden and I'm reducing the chance of having slower internet.

[@DevoBlade]

Pyrion's rant on chess openings reminds me of RTS like Starcraft. People practice opening builds and working on timings, but its mid-late game where the game becomes more free form. You have to react and push rather than just following a play.

[@aaronabraham5029]

The amount of joking around about getting a sponsor. When the time actually comes its so formal and yuk to different to the pod XD. I truly love this pod keep it up bois!!

[@EpicAvatar]

Congrats on the sponsor guys

[@Fireburnin21]

I thought one of the goals of the podcast was to avoid any sort of advertisement, other than patreon. Wonder why Lewis switched up.

[@morganfreaman]

Rensome they never said that they said they would only advertise something They do or would use

[@teucer_]

That uncomfortable feeling when your automatic reflex to skip ads is unresolved

[@mikehitchcock5753]

If you like the content from a channel you shouldn't skip the ads. Unless you'd like to run the risk of not being able view said content furthermore.

No megaphone at the start. I feel a bit cheated.

[@sanderhoefsloot6852]

I love that Lewis has gotten into the Arkham Horror LCG. I’ve been playing the game for a few years and it is absolutely my favorite.

[@TheZaius]

The movie is Nothing But Trouble! It starred Chevy Chase and Dan Aykroyd! Humpty Hump and 2Pac are also in it! It came out in the early 90s and I SAW IT IN THEATERS! It's super friggin' weird and is totally what I was thinking about when sips was describing his meat processing factory!

[@bickbalsy]

They've been so consistent week after week. I'm scared, but I might start expecting it again.

[@richtofen4888]

[@wholelifeahead]

Sips' mods are absolutely worse, the man essentially built a concentration camp with added cannibalism.

[@adamgrocco]

So Lewis is in the UK, and he changes his VPN to be UK? so he can see different shows? I'm guessing expressVPN provided a script?

[@mikehitchcock5753]

He does travel

[@fugyfruit]

He's still in Japan

[@BecauseOfDragons]

Considering that I work in the tabletop/wargaming world, it is rather exciting to hear the guys talking about miniatures haha. The urge to comment on everything they said enthusiastically is high!

[@WolfenBluestone]

Now i have a mighty need to play chess.

[@darnchacha1632]

So like I can't be the only person who never used miniatures but still played 40k and Warhammer and stuff, We would cut out bits of cardboard and write the name of the units on top of them, I had a friend who one day who went online and downloaded a picture of every miniature in the game, printed them out and laminated them as well as had all the rules and statistics, and after he did that, we all had to copy him, so by senior year we all had our dream 40k armies made with laminated pictures, it was so great.

[@Nicho1991cs]

Flax is kinda right ,pokemon has a Gigantic lore pool just under its surface and its just kinda nice to dive in every once in a while

[@mostlyharmless7154]

Bloodbowl is a great game- it only breaks in a campaign if you don’t ban a couple of upgrades

[@gar4206]

when the music started and he started talking about express vpn I almost had a heart attack

[@seansia]

PFlax might be interested in King & Country miniatures. They're historically accurate and very good quality.

[@ryanmike242]

Flax is completely right about Pokemon. I kicked the nasty habit but there is an exhaustively complex metagame behind it

[@Datharass]

Hero Quest is still an amazing board game, it's introductory to D&D but it's still a great family game with far less setup.

Another thing about multiplayer strategy games that sucks (coming from a guy who likes them) is sometimes you realize early on that you've lost, and then you have to sit there for another 20-30 minutes as everything progressively goes even more to s.

[@greyforge27]

Doing crazy gladiatorial/meatpacking horror setups is literally what video games are all about, whether it's Zoo Tycoon 2 or Fallout 4. But you have to be a true shut-in creep to install nude mods and whatnot

[@Ephemeral-Bean]

holy shit Lewis, let sips finish his story! also, I've been listening to the old triforce podcasts and the vibe is so different, you answered questions submitted by the listeners too, what happened to that???

[@markafterdark8047]

I think that was only the first few episodes, like maybe up until 10 or so. It seemed to be more, they needed filler to pad the episode and now they have more than enough to talk about. Sometimes even having to cut conversations sort to fit it within the "limit" or within an episode length

[@Unassailable]

can you guys add a bar or icon or something that tells us ur reading a sponsor, so we can skip to when its over. Most video podcast, and even youtube videos do this.

Episode 128, the sell out episode haha. No hate just made me laugh that Lewis finally accepted the need for ADs

[@eloquentlyemma]

I’m not a massive fan of ads, but when you compare it to the amount of free content, a minute or three of an ad isn’t too bad. At least it’s relevant - I mean, they could be trying to sell us washing powder or double-glazing. As well as this, they declared it as an ad whereas a lot of other KZbinrs wouldn’t. So I don’t really have a problem like some of the other commenters do - especially since the Yogscast was built (pre-patreon) and even now is mainly supported by ad revenue.

[@BalthorYT]

Washing powder isn't something shady you put your data through for very dubious benefits that you get lied about. VPN companies are scummy and sell legally gray services that don't truly improve your security or privacy online.
