Getting into Jerma adjacent media now

[kirbyfanneox]

I saw edits of the Eight Crazy Nights poster were trending and I had the urge to Create a version featuring the Vinesauce streamers I watch with any regularity: Imakuni, Limealicious (as their vtuber models, Kuni and Laimu, respectively), Vinny, Joel, and the Vinesauce-adjacent Jabroni Mike. Also represented are Dorb, RevScarecrow, and special guests SimpleFlips, Hackerling, and Jerma.

I think JoJo should be further left; the amount of people screaming "BAAAAAAASED" when Araki puts literally anything queer-adjacent into it, the heavy focus on typically "gay" aesthetics from the media and fandom itself, the fandom being heavily leaned into by explicitly and loudly leftist creators... it might be my Saltydkdan, Soundsmith, and Joel Vinesauce bias speaking, but I feel like JoJo Enjoyers tend to veer less centrist

Jojo is in a weird spot where there's a lot of queer fans but there's also a lot of conservative cishet dudes who just see a show about Big Tough Guys Fighting and decide it's for them.

Some self described Jojo fans on twitter just REALLY hate Jolyne just because she's a woman. and they will never be safe from my wrath

Completed (Early Access Content) - Palworld

Look, man. I know I can't call this an official completion, given that the game is still in early access. But I trashed all available bosses and 10/10'ed each of those little Pal bastards, so that has to be indicative of some level of mastery, right?

Or maybe I've got to explain why I disappeared down this hole for the last few months.

I'm not what you'd call a cutting-edge kind of person when it comes to technology. Considering that most of my game consoles are old enough to purchase cigarettes and alcohol, it's safe to say I'm fairly retro. A throwback. Happiest with something made between 1986 and 2005 (or, at the very least, looks and acts like that.) Getting in on an early access for a game is not my thing at all.

So, "Palworld" is a bit of an anomaly. Maybe, in many ways.

"Palworld" is a hybrid crafting, survival, base management, third person shooter, and creature catching game. It stars your customizable character de jour who is forced to survive on an isolated island full of inhospitable terrain, monsters of various levels of aggression, and asshole humans. What's the secret behind the looming towers and massive Yggdrasil-like tree glowing in the distance? I don't know. The tree part of the content isn't out, yet. But, you can at least explore the island and wail on the asses of those that dare to conquer it for their own varied ends. That's at least 100 hours of content right there!

Since its early access release in January of 2024, "Palworld" has garnered a fair amount of attention. Good. Bad. All over the place. Definitely a case of the old phrase "all publicity is good publicity." While not the first in terms of creation when it comes to edgy monster collecting games (with "Megami Tensei" loudly coughing in some dusty old corner), it is unique in its game style mix. Perhaps not visually unique enough, given how certain "Pokémon" fans were sharpening their Honedges after the very first glance they took at this game. Its publisher having a previous game that openly used AI art generation didn't help its credibility, either! (Although, that game also is about rewarding players for detecting art made by an AI opponent a la an elementary-school art class "Among Us", so judge accordingly.)

I get it. I've got some degree of Nintendo brain rot, too. Did you check my avatar and username? But, I also know that Nintendo can and will obliterate anything in its path with Death Star-adjacent precision and power, especially when it comes to any potential IP infringement. Hell, they crumpled two emulators into a black hole mere weeks after this game's early access released. If they had any notion that something was off with this game, they'd have it annihilated—for better or worse.

Like most modern games, my attention was drawn to this title via watching several streamers play. (In particular, PatStaresAt, WoolieVersus, and Vinesauce, if you're wanting names.) Now, I'd like to be coy and pretend that online videos don't influence my interest in games, but I also own a copy of the SNES game "Lagoon" because I loved watching PJDiCesare clown on it. Hell, I only backed "Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night" after watching Liam Allen-Miller replicate "Castlevania"-Metroidvania physics in a YouTube preview! I see a video, my brain makes judgements, I variably engage in commerce. And, to be honest, I like games like this. "Breath of the Wild." "Pokémon Legends: Arceus." "Minecraft." I wanted a game like this, so hell. I was willing to gamble $30.00 USD on this, bugs and unfinished status and all.

I think I may have gotten my money's worth out of this.

Was the game play that addicting, or was I in a depression spiral triggered by bad working conditions at my job and my maternal grandmother's health issues precipitating more labor on my family's behalf? Yes. To which part of that question? Yes. While the game attempts to guide the player via an early game tutorial and tasks for building up your bases, you're mostly left on your own to build both the world and yourself in whatever image you'd like. Want to build a Babylonian tower to offend whatever god created this world? Okay. Want to drop everything on the floor like an agitated toddler and/or "Resident Evil 0" protagonist? Whatever makes you happy! Want to build a rocket launcher and shoot it at a dragon's face? That can be done! It just might take some time.

Because the game consists of different play styles, I found myself alternating often between game loop sets. Usually, it broke into a stack of tasks like this:

Determine nearest threat (monster fighting.)

Gather materials (crafting.)

Return to/establish a base (base management.)

Build what I can (crafting/base management.)

Loop steps 2-4 until items of desire were created (crafting/base management.)

Gather/raise Pals to attack nearest threat (monster fighting.)

Return to Step 2 for final repairs and/or weapon creation (crafting.)

Attack threat (monster fighting.)

Reset to step 2 on failure and step 1 on success.

While catching and raising monsters tends to garner you the most experience points, your character will more or less remain just a nuisance to a bulk of the major threats in the game. At best, you've got a rocket launcher, an automatic rifle, a sword, and shot-deflecting shields and armor. You put out maybe around 600 damage with a weapon that takes a second to reload. The bosses you fight? They can have anywhere from 30,000 to 200,000 HP. When it comes to survival, it isn't about how much damage you can take or give. It's about what you learn and how you deploy your so-called Pals.

If you are planning on taking a shot every time I write the word "Pokémon" in this review, you might want to switch off the liquor now and move to a soda. Do your liver a favor.

A lot of the game's rules can be reduced to "Pokémon - 1" or "Pokémon / 2". This includes:

How many monsters you can take with you (5 instead of 6)

How many moves they have (3 instead of 4)

Your level cap (50 vs. 100, but that may just be an early access limitation)

How many elements are in game (9 vs. 18. Also, don't expect much in the way of complex monster typing line-ups. You may end up overthinking fights.)

Having said that, the complexity here isn't lost. You're obviously doing a lot more home ec to keep your bases up to snuff. Where "Palworld" really succeeds is in its battle speed, scale, and options. Pals will automatically engage based on whatever aggression level you have them set at, performing moves without your instruction. Several different monster types and human factions can be thrust together to duke it out. It can get quick and chaotic, often forcing you to get your ass out of the line of fire. When you do want to get manual? Well, hell. Some Pals can be a ridable mount, and some can act as living artillery for your use. Is it responsible to give a giant panda a grenade launcher? Well, who's gonna stop you? The cops?

Also, it's awesome that you can teach Pals whatever moves exist via fruits. It's nice not to have to look up some table online for move compatibility. (A shame that the same can't be said about its breeding, but more on that in a bit.)

"Palworld" certainly has a different take on its so-called Pals, especially in compared to "Pokémon" titles. Don't expect the first monster you pick up to go on and become some powerhouse fueled by respect and love for you as a caretaker. There are Pals that are great, and there are Pals that suck. (The game is more than happy to tell you which is which in its Paldeck.) You're rewarded for getting at least 10 of them, but you won't have the space to keep 10 of every species. You can slaughter Pals for parts or mush a bunch of them together a la "Shin Megami Tensei" to make the surviving unit stronger. Basically, you're expected to keep updating and consolidating your inventory of friends so that you can cut down on your work loop time and challenge the other assholes vying for territory on Palpagos Island. (Seriously—that is its name!) You're not really supposed to be getting attached to any of them.

And yet…well, the nature of a person eventually reveals itself, doesn't it?

While the game allows you to take many unscrupulous actions, you're rarely rewarded for acting like an inflamed, gaping asshole. Yeah, you can slaughter your Pals, but you're losing out on making others stronger if you do that. You can capture other humans like you would a Pal, but they won't provide much in the way of help on your bases or in battle. (Apparently, you can sell them off, too? Fucked up all around.) Hell, you can even kill NPCs and end up having to bolt off like a "Grand Theft Auto" protagonist when the cops show up to bust your ass! About the only defiance I got away with routinely was ransacking Wildlife Sanctuaries, and even that required me to sneak around at night and keep a low profile.

There is a bit of a conflict going on between the game's tone and appearance. It very much wants to be the edgy "Pokémon" game any average teenager would dream up (again, with certain Atlus RPGs coughing and wheezing for attention in the background.) Supplementary journals and Paldeck texts describe a world full of violence, blood, animal trafficking, suffering, death, and birds with cocaine addictions. (I'm not kidding—it's literally the bastard cop's monster of choice.) But, the monsters look like an average social media artist's attempts at combining Pokémon species together, and the humans all have some degree of generic anime cuteness to them. It's hard to take the leader of a bunch of martyrous pyromaniacs seriously when he looks like the protagonist to some Sega Dreamcast rhythm game. (Also, why he has an electric/dragon type as his Pal of choice when he leads a bunch of fire freaks is beyond me.) 

At this point, I wouldn't say the music is much to write home about, either. It tries to kick up for encounters, letting you know how much danger you are in (from piddly little twinkling music for typical cannon fodder to bombastic choral arrangements for tough sons of bitches.) A lot of times, it can be rather quiet. This didn't bother me with "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild," but it does bother me here, especially when I have to take 15-20 minutes to work in my base. I think what the game needs is something like "Minecraft"'s Mice on Venus track. Just a few pieces of music to interrupt the quiet when it's gone on for five or ten minutes.

I'm also not super thrilled with the breeding system in "Palworld." With "Pokémon" games, you generally know what you're getting based on who the mother in the coupling is. (Well, barring the use of specialty items, I suppose. Speaking of things that annoy me…) Here? About the only guarantee you get is if both parents are of the same species. The resulting couplings for other species isn't random, but it is a weird mess. Generally, you can assume the resulting offspring to be of a poorer quality than at least one of the parents, if species of different rarity are mixed. Through on top of that several structural, item, and time-based requirements, and you've got a very expensive and irritating system to work around. Honestly, this was the thing that finally broke me into looking up help guides online. It's just that off-putting.

If you are looking for a breeding calculator: palword.gg has you covered. Mostly. I think I did run into some issues there as well, but I don't know if I read something wrong or was just stupid tired when I set something up.

"How about bugs?", you might be asking.

"There's no Bug type in this game," I would reply.

Maybe you'd start hitting me with a shoe after that.

But, in terms of glitches I encountered? I played from versions 0.1.3.0 to 0.1.5.0, so I saw my fair share of issues that came and went. The biggest problem as of 0.1.5.0 involves terrain clipping and occasionally being shoved beneath the map. (Big Pal bodies + me going all Goemon Ishikawa XIII on them resulted in some unfortunate subterranean exploration.) Generally, I got myself back into the map without too much struggle, but there were times where I did have to respawn myself. I also lost several boss captures to a combination of freezing status + a rocket launcher round blasting them into the horizons beyond, so that was unfortunate. There was also a bug where you could get the game's dungeons to respawn bosses to another Pal type if you didn't like what you got, but I started having issues with the dungeon's barriers failing to drop on the boss's death when I screwed around with that, so maybe just stick with what you get. I also had the occasional text goof-up where my instructions would be in Japanese instead of English. Given the Goemon commentary above, you may surmise that this was not a huge deal for me. Still goofy, though.

If you'd like, the game offers you quite the list of customizable settings to alter your experience. I'd highly recommend playing around with them, particularly when you are vulnerable to taking a one-way trip to the Backrooms via a bad clip. It's one thing to lose your inventory to a fight you lost; it's another to lose your inventory to an issue with collision detection. Do yourself a favor and remove that penalty. I also eventually grew tired of the exponential experience curve and jacked up the multipliers for experience as high as they could go. I put several hundred hours into this game, man. And that was on top of working in a half-staffed job while babysitting my mom's dog for weeks while she got my grandma into an assistant living facility. All of these bitches needed a break.

Also—for the love of your hands, please flip the "Hold to Toggle Interaction" setting to On in your control style of choice. You can recap a shredded controller stick, but you can't recap your fingertips.

While I spent a lot of time on this game, I also spent a lot of time on this game with good reason. Even in its unfinished state, I had a good time. In the midst of building up my first character—a punished tribute to an Abrahamic icon forced to repeat his edict from God once more—I kept thinking about making the next character. Doing it all over again. Honeymooning it. There is a risk that this game doesn't get any further than where it's at now, but I can't say that where it's at is a bad place.

So, you can't get to a giant, sparkly tree. Boo hoo. There's a lot of other good stuff to see. Maybe even conquer, if you're up to it.

[vinesauce-spogooter]

i think its ok and good for u to post like. vinesauce-adjacent streamers like the ones that are featured normally :) vinesauce and friends :)

you heard this very kind person-type person! Guess all the vinessociates are now on the menu!

[datamined]

My youtube consumption is pretty white washed and its pretty difficult to organically find new creators of color that create content adjacent to my interests. I feel like most of the people of color i follow tend to be lifestyle or cooking channels or bloggers.

I’ll be doing my own searching, but can anyone recommend some youtubers or twitch streamers that upload VODs to youtube that make content in a similar vein to vinesauce (chill but with occasional gut-busting moments and quirky variety games on occasion) or dougdoug (creative ideas with videogames as more of a vehicle for executing said creative ideas), and/or create content or video essays about niche topics like internet history, indie games, horror games, etc…?

[transbeeduo]

HI i’m sry if this comes off as rude i don’t mean it to /g but i just wanted 2 let u know that vinesauce + the community don’t rly use negative terms like “loser man” in an endearing way and it’ll probably come off to people as plain negative if u talk abt vinny or any of the other vs streamers using terms like that ;; the community just kinda has a v different atmosphere to most mcyts or mcyt-adjacent ccs so i just wanted to let u know bc maintagging that post might cause some hate and it’s best to stay away from wording like that !! hope this didn’t come off as mean or anything i just thought i’d let u know since vs has a pretty big history on how ppl treat vinny due to past drama and there’s some kinda weird unspoken rules regarding it that new fans might not think abt hfjsjjfnf

OH IM NOT A NEW FAN I JUST GENUINELY DIDN’T EVEN THINK OF THAT THANK YOU FOR REMINDING ME

[firebornamari]

@jabronimike sometimes goes "NOMPF" when a character eats something on stream and I hear it in my head when I eat. Makes a necessity difficult when you're stuck between spitting out your food in surprise and dying of laughter.

[blazehedgehog]

What do you think of Vinesauce?

I like Vinny. He seems alright, in the sense that we are total strangers on the internet, have never met and never spoken to each other, and he probably isn't aware that I exist (which I am fine with).

For a time, I felt a little weird that Vinny was so in to Red Letter Media, because there was a time where people I knew gave RLM the side-eye over (probably mostly ignorant) things Rich Evans said on a stream years ago. But then I realized I've also continued to watch Red Letter Media myself, and overall, that whole brand has made steps to be a little more inclusive in recent years anyway, so the whole thing ended up being a wash.

Because, again, people on the internet. We're strangers. You can watch 7000 hours of a streamer and you don't actually know who they are on the inside. You've only seen the celebrity side they choose to project. Sometimes that celebrity side really is who they are, but sometimes it's not, and you'll probably never know which is which.

But I like Vinny. He's chill, humble, funny, and his dry sense of humor is very much in my wheelhouse.

I have, however, begun to watch less Vinesauce content. Not because of Vinny, but because he's gone through at least a couple editors now that seem to try and... punch up his streams? And usually for an audience of people much (much) younger than I am. Like there was a time where he had an editor that would cut to Jontron reaction faces during clip collections, which I don't really cotton to.

I think that editor is gone now, but the last time I watched a Vinesauce Highlight (back in, I dunno, May or June), the current editor is still pretty... punchy. And, y'know, sometimes even Vinny himself is like that now. Like The Grey Leno Show stuff.

It just doesn't feel like it's for me. Which is fine. Not everything has to be. Vinny has an audience that supports him, and I think he should follow that. The guy deserves success. And I still watch some Vinesauce stuff every now and then, like last night I watched his Halloween 2022 stream, which was a good one.

And I like Joel, too! I don't check in on him enough. In fact, looking now, I see that he did something called "Voices from the Void" that's tagged as being adjacent to Signal Simulator, so I know what I'm watching tonight.

[gigimarvels]

Back on that jabroni mike BANGERS!! remember guys I STREAM ON TWITCH AND I DO A LOT OF ART FOR MIKE AND STREAMERS WITHIN THAT SPHERE!~ https://www.twitch.tv/gigimarz

[gemstone-gynoid]

vtubers i know and at least occassionally watch-

all of hololive english, indonesia, most of japan. nuff said, theyre all great peeps. they all feel like mainstays just weeks after debut, even the newest members. so it really is shocking whenever someone leaves.

nijisanji en , the first two waves of girls. starting to watch nina and millie more. should check out the guys more. i know theres tons of other nijipeeps but i dont really see many clips floating around of them. 

VOMs, pikamee i can watch streams. she’s a streamer for sure with how she interacts with chat. the other 3 in the group seem great, not a lot of translations though.

vshojo, definitely respect all of them. mostly watch nyanners and ironmouse though. 

smaller names i know:

Athena Bambina- rather christian deergirl who has sick belches often. is a good streamer. doesnt get a lot of views yet. i think she’s someone who trawls 4chan a lot with her humor sometimes though. english. 

Alchemilla Menace - CyberLive group- i like slimegirls

Artemis of the Blue- this shark girl is no idol (as if other vtuber sharkgirls are idols) but she does her own things its nice. 

Courtney (ProjectSNT) - big sonic fan, vtuber model is usually her sonic oc. 

demily pyro - its @demilypyro go follow her! great demon gal from the minecraft realm of netherlands. 

FalseEyeD- a vtuber who does vtuber news, and id say he is pretty objective in an area that can easily be some idiotic drama channel. i like his robot avatar more than his anime boy self. 

FeFe- vshojo adjacent content, i respect the existence of unabashedly horny vtubers. 

kson onair- this independent vtuber has such a powerful personality. nuff said. 

omotea- i actually followed this channel before i realized what vtubers are and before i found hololive. vr and is into music or rhythm games like beat saber. dances too.

smudgebap- i personally know this person, has a simple bunny pngtuber model.  been streaming for about a year it seems, i predict theyll pop off in time. 

Fujikura Uruka - phase connect group - purple beargirl that is a pretty good musician. edgy vibes, like selen tatsuki. 

Virtual Hero V-Ranger- @virtualherovranger a tumblr alumni too. need to catch her streams more. 

woohoolad- the world needs more shitposters. certified atrocious small balls streamer. 

yogurt cap- VR dancer but in a shitpost way. 

Usui Clear - rocket vtuber who’s model is heavily astronomy inspired, does streams whenever a rocket launch is happening to talk about it. also does like regular vtuber among us streams too. 

juniper actias- that moth vtuber with amazing rigging of a regular, chibi, and monstrous form. 

vinesauce Lime, Revscarecrow and Jabroni Mike have vtuber models its great. though i havent watched those in this group in a while. everyone knows vinny and joel. i watched rev the most though. 

[lovely-hikari-cosplay]

Please be (tactfully) skeptical of “evidence” from both sides

I’m usually the type of person to say “pick a side and stand for something” but in the last few weeks (I’ll even says months) I’ve seen a pattern of attempts of “cancellation” on Internet personalities for things that can be construed-at most- as scummy behavior when full context is given. (Scummy behavior still sucks, but is -often- not a “head on a pike” worthy offense)

This is one of those situations where, unfortunately, you have to stay in the middle and see things from both ends until more concrete evidence comes to light that either incriminates the accused or debunks the previous accusations.

The evidences levied against Vinny looks...strange to me, but I wasn’t there. None of us know Vinny personally, but given the consistent branding of Vinesauce and Vinesauce adjacent things, something isn’t adding completely up at least on the messaging side that I’ve seen. Other things, like the alleged call, also seem conspiratorial.

On the other side, the evidence used to defend him and debunk the accusations looks just as conspiratorial as the above. Checking a spectrogram for edits and doing a deep dive to find the “true head” of the controversy, while well intended, gives off a paranoid vibe.

Hence the debate.

Unfortunately, this is how it’s going to be until Vinny either admits he did what he is accused of or a lawyer who can gather substantial evidence to clear his name gets involved.

Yes, always support victims of abuse but also never forget innocent until proven guilty. You can do both, not supremely well mind you, but you don’t have to go at the victim nor Vinny torches burning.

Just sit back and hold the full extent of your judgement until a line in the sand is more clearly drawn and remember we’re outsiders looking in.

Thoughts on vinny vinesauce

Tbh I have never seen a vid of his I know he's funny I love his snope Dogg bit and his accent perplexes me I think his humor is less adjacent to mine but im sure he's a great guy

[purified-zone]

1. Always post the rules. 2. Answer the questions given by the person who tagged you. 3. Write 11 questions of your own. 4. Tag 11 people. 

Okay. I’ve been tagged by @some-triangles​. Here’s the post they tagged me in.

Scrolling down, I first saw the questions @some-triangles​ answered thinking I would be able to answer them. Because of that, I’m going to answer at least one.

0. If you could beat up literally anyone, right now, with zero repercussions, who would it be?

i would beat up, in part for indirectly making me break my several-days-now angst-charade of blogging silence that i’m pretty sure absolutely nobody even noticed

and also for this clear dueling proposition,

guess who i’m referring to,

guess,

it’s @some-triangles​

i am going to beat up @some-triangles​ with zero repercussions

you have only yourself to blame!!!! you tagged me!!!!!!!!!!!!

1. Which facet of online discourse makes you the least comfortable?

and fridge-horrors adjacent to that

2. How quickly can you figure a tip?

um, i do like 20% or something usually

3. Are you proud of your heritage? If so, should you be?

I’m half white and half Japanese.

you tell me pal

4. What’s your fursona?

Ant-Man was a good movie.

5. What’s the best sandwich you’ve ever had?

Probably something that doesn’t even qualify as a sandwich. That or some kind of BLT with fried eggs in it. Oh, I do like fish filet burgers. Those are nice.

6. If you had the opportunity to leave your body and become an incorporeal being that preys on the living, would you?

Depends on what you mean by “preys on”. If it could be made into something objectively funny then yeah

7. What’s the last notable interaction you had with a stranger?

I met a guy at TooManyGames who I played ARMS with against while waiting for the Vinesauce Q&A line to go in. He seemed vaguely annoyed by some of my shit but he’s in my Switch friends library, so.

8. Have you ever made a shrine?  If so, to what?

What?

Probably, but only digitally. I once built a giant metal birthday cake in Terraria for my friend Jane. I’m sure I’ve probably done something stupidly shrine-like in Blockland for something but I can’t think of anything. Probably not, actually.

9. Favorite wrestling move?

the SLAM DUNK

10. Do you have a type?  If so, what is the least convenient thing about it?

Man, Ice may have some good offensive moves, but good god does it have a lot of weaknesses. Every single one of its defensive weaknesses is an extremely common offensive elemental type, and it has so many. I wouldn’t have it any other way, though.

11. If you could switch lives with one rap artist, living or dead, who would it be?

Um, Mike Shinoda? He’s both the same ethnic mix as me AND is The Linkin Park Guy so...

as for 11 questions, uh

1. How do you emotionally prepare for realizing you SUDDENLY no longer genuinely care about a character (deeply caring aesthetically/personally/attractedly/philosophically/idfkally) that you’ve spent the last few years kind of worshipping

2. Do you want to answer these questions? Really?

3. What motions does your mind go through to avoid being something “cringeworthy” in the eyes of a past or future self, and at what point do you just say “fuck it” and give up even trying?

4. What’s a good meemay?

5. Describe a low point in your life, and what made/makes it a low point

6. What did you do to leave that nadir? If it’s ongoing, what do you think you’ll have to mainly do

7. Would Wonder Woman have been better off with a different ending as opposed to Ares turning out to be Professor Lupin the whole time except with Dragonball Z final battle powers?

8. Is unacknowledged racism in Japan worthy of being forcibly brought out into the open? Is it racism even though it’s not really (directly, at least) about white supremacy? should we call it something else when discussing it? is language a big issue here

9. Fursona

10. Why should the next Elder Scrolls game absolutely take place in Elsweyr???

11. Is any artist actually capable of finding their own art attractive (other than Erika Moen she doesn’t count she’s an extraterrestrial with her own agenda)

I don’t really want to subject anyone to answer any of these hellish questions, so instead I’m going to tag YOU! the reader! for actually managing to get through this giant wall of helltext. Your reward is now having to answer these godawful questions. Congratules

12. Can you figure out why I went 10 billion years without posting anything?

[gigimarvels]

forgot to post thise here but happy to hear Mike had a wonderful birthday... Christmas.... BIRTHMAS drew this during my live stream on twitch and it was a ton of fun, I gotta thank the Mike community for all your wonderful support because without you all i wouldn't be here
