7:22 PMAndrew Eisen​“Nine male Directors and zero female Director (percentage of females: 0%)”

7:23 PMBryan Gillis​Maybe finish the game for your Patreon instead?

7:25 PMScottyJayMan​The fishing in BOTW is rubbish

7:26 PMBryan Gillis​Yeah, best to start small

7:26 PMBryan Gillis​Breath of Fire, not BOTW

7:28 PMaddictedtochaos​You can bomb fish too

7:28 PMBryan Gillis​Or better: throw a bomb in the water, then collect dead fish

7:31 PMBryan Gillis​Some types of fish do run away. Besides, a bomb is just more fun

7:32 PMBryan Gillis​He can hold an unlimited amount of dead animals, but only a couple weapons

7:37 PMBryan Gillis​And they will never release a game again

7:38 PMScottyJayMan​Valve is the new EA

7:40 PMScottyJayMan​Probably came to that decision after multiple death threats from Pewdiepie fans

7:48 PMАлександр Гольцев​привет

7:53 PMsstartend​Aizen!

7:57 PMАлександр Гольцев​I do not understand a word in all of your videos, but I really love to watch them

7:57 PMAndrew Eisen​Glad to hear it.! Would subtitles help?

8:00 PMАлександр Гольцев​translates all the same badly in Russian

8:01 PMAndrew Eisen​Ah. I’m afraid I can’t do anything about the language barrier but I’m glad you find something to enjoy in my videos nonetheless!

8:02 PMАлександр Гольцев​your voice is cool btw

8:03 PMBryan Gillis​He just cheated a streamed himself cheating. As far as I know, he didn’t come up with anything

8:05 PMАлександр Гольцев​why you have a few views on videos ?

8:06 PMAndrew Eisen​I guess I’m just not producing content a lot of people want to watch.

8:06 PMBryan Gillis​I think Andrew is cursed by the YouTube algorithm, personally

8:07 PMAndrew Eisen​There are a lot of factors, that’s undoubtedly one.

8:07 PMAndrew Eisen​https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/…

8:07 PMBryan Gillis​He gets a ton of views and subscribers from a couple viral videos, but those people don’t watch the rest of his videos, so they don’t get promoted much

8:08 PMScottyJayMan​Does that mean that Polybius is in the public domain?

8:09 PMBryan Gillis​Nah. It’s a work of fiction, so it’s copyroghted

8:09 PMАлександр Гольцев​even I watch your videos, although I have a language barrier, and I’m very far away, it was fun to watch as you played in the monster hunter

8:12 PMScottyJayMan​Ragnarok Online will be discontinued in EU due to new EU Data retention laws
