Many A True Nerd Patroncast July 2016 Submissions!
Added 2016-07-29 23:45:02 +0000 UTC... Hmm, this is going to be tight to fit in July... Darn.
Anyway, you know how this goes. I will talk about things, and also answer questions. Ask questions, or provide topics, and I shall discuss them.

In case there is no thread for Patroncast August submissions: Why is creating Patroncasts on a seemingly relativ low priority?

2016-08-30 18:14:29 +0000 UTCI heard something about you redoing fallout new Vegas kill everything run?
g
2016-08-08 11:11:31 +0000 UTCAre you going to do Wasteland 2 in foreseeable future?

2016-08-07 06:25:15 +0000 UTCI imagine it's too late, but in case you haven't recorded yet, do you plan on taking J. Sawyer New Vegas all the way through all the DLC or just main game?

2016-08-06 16:47:06 +0000 UTCNo questions as of now, just wanted to stop in and say I am loving Stellaris, New Vegas and Mass Effect. Chyea Braaahh (cheers) from California!

Vince
2016-08-04 07:14:16 +0000 UTCCan you do more games with Matt which you're terrible at? That Rainbow Six video was amazing.

2016-08-03 01:53:11 +0000 UTCAny website updates?
Samuel
2016-08-03 00:56:34 +0000 UTCCan we expect to see more Total War any time soon? Your Warhammer and Rome series' got me hooked on the franchise, and I feel like those games really suit the methodical, thought-out approach you take with gaming. Thanks!

2016-08-02 15:23:44 +0000 UTCHey Jon, hope you check this. My donation for this month may come a tad late. I had some fraud on my card and I had to have them cancel it and issue me a new one to stop charges being made that weren't being made by me. My new card should be here in a few more days, but I did get a message from Patrion telling me that my payments didn't go through. This is just so you know, I haven't discontinued my support for your channel. I love it and you do great work and my support will resume as soon as I receive my new debit card.
Jes Featherston
2016-08-01 18:55:46 +0000 UTCHi Jon! Little late as well but was curious if you'd ever consider playing the Zero Escape series? Its discussion/use of time travel reminded me a bit of Life is Strange and I'd love to see you play through it. On a more unrelated note, I remember you mentioning Antigone a while back in another Patroncast which was really interesting; do you have a favorite playwright?
Bonnie
2016-08-01 03:26:59 +0000 UTCI'm a couple days late on this, but when can we expect the video for which you asked for suggestions of collaborators? Or did it already happen (and I simply forgot about it)? (I'm getting old.) Thanks!
Eric Place
2016-08-01 01:16:17 +0000 UTCGood Count here as a Patron -- Hey! Hello. Yes. So, I've pointed out before that doing the count in the first place drastically reduced the amount of times you said "good", but there's a lot of other little changes you've made over running the channel too. You'd swear in the earliest videos, for instance, and that's just no longer a thing that happens now. There's a lot of stuff that's shifted over the years, especially since about the start of the Far Cry 4 run, that's really made me think about what it must be like to have to put so much of your stream of thought almost directly in front of an audience. Are there any particular phrases or mannerisms you feel you used to say, but listening to yourself in editing made you try to stop saying it? How do you think constantly having to analyze what you say for an audience has changed how you talk, or think? Does that creep into day-to-day life when you're not recording? (By the way, "'Round the Outside" is actually said more often in videos at the moment than "But nevermind, eh?".)
Ross James
2016-07-31 20:30:30 +0000 UTCHi Jon, have you ever had a chance to play sunless sea? It seems like it might be right up your ally but you never know, anyway keep up the amazing videos!
Cisco Frost
2016-07-31 20:03:19 +0000 UTCHello Jon, Ive just watched your video on Happiness is a Choice and I wonder - have you considered playing Sir, You Are Being Hunted? From what I saw, you've never posted a video about and it could potentially interest you with its sort-of survival mechanics and british-like atmosphere
Christie
2016-07-31 18:33:29 +0000 UTCHappy August Jon...I will assume you are using the Romulus calendar. I wanted to ask if you have seen the 'Fallout 3 Is Garbage, And Here's Why' by user hbomberguy its an interesting look at the game. If you have seen it i'd be interested to see if you agree with any of the points. Thanks again for the hours of entertainment you give Jon, keep up the good work and remember to stay true to ceaser in your Fallout New Vegas Jay Sayer run.
Jack Beddoe
2016-07-31 16:54:06 +0000 UTCI remember you talked about having a website going up, how's the progress on that going?
Kasper the friendly ghost
2016-07-31 15:12:00 +0000 UTCHave you got a favourite piece of editing you've done?
Samuel
2016-07-31 12:57:55 +0000 UTCHey Jon, any chance you are gonna play the KOTOR games on your channel?
Oskar Stangenberg
2016-07-31 11:15:48 +0000 UTCAny chance of giving Tale of Two Wastelands a try? I've played it myself and it's really nice - basically combines Fallout 3 and Fallout NV.
CitadelCore
2016-07-31 09:17:39 +0000 UTCJon any chance of a Red Dead Redemption play through or miniseries? I don't want to persuade you that you're missing out on another great Rockstar game but I have to say there is a quest called "A Frenchman, a Welshman, and an Irishman" in the first act.
Zack
2016-07-31 04:11:43 +0000 UTCSome old school DOS game suggestions in case your looking for a change of pace: Master of Orion, Dark Reign, Dune II.
ElectricGears
2016-07-31 02:31:17 +0000 UTCThis isn't really a question or anything, but I honestly want to thank you. When I first stumbled across your videos I was so depressed and couldn't really find joy in anything. Your Kill Everything series got me to laugh more than I had in years. Your humor and voice are a pleasure to listen to- I have a lot of sound sensitivity- Misophonia sucks- but your voice is one I can keep coming back to enjoy. Thank you for all that you do.
Madison Perez
2016-07-31 00:52:34 +0000 UTCHey Jon What's your favorite book series and why?
Zachary Rodriguez
2016-07-30 22:12:50 +0000 UTCDo you have any favourite Robot Wars battles/robots from the original run?
Nick Dewsbury
2016-07-30 20:17:03 +0000 UTCHey, if you haven't seen it already, Jon and Matt had a livestream of Portal 2 Co-op, which is very fun! <a href="https://youtu.be/NfQ-l9tSWJI" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://youtu.be/NfQ-l9tSWJI</a>
Thomas Malone
2016-07-30 20:16:00 +0000 UTCHey Jon, have been meaning to ask for a while, how far in advance do you record videos? The no guns run finale was finished before e3, and released weeks later, whereas "technical conflippery" has been known to delay the release of New Vegas survival mode and others. In addition to this, do you find yourself reading the comment sections less when the video was made further in advance, where the comments can't really change what happens in later episodes? Do you mainly read/prefer the comments on YouTube, Reddit or Twitter? Also, does Patreon record the demographics of its patrons? If so, can you tell us who we are in general, and how do we compare to your YouTube demographics?
Thomas Malone
2016-07-30 20:04:03 +0000 UTCWith how slow growth is for small channels on YouTube, what kept you going in the early days of your channel? Also, any tips for a small gaming channel? You're my biggest inspiration to start a channel of my own, so any advice would help :)
Tyler Hildebrand
2016-07-30 15:18:04 +0000 UTCFinal question: What is the status on merchandise?
Jack
2016-07-30 14:32:54 +0000 UTCWill we ever see more "great" simulators? What about more of Skyshine's Bedlam?
Jack
2016-07-30 14:30:51 +0000 UTCAre you excited for No Man's Sky and the Bioshock Collection?
Jack
2016-07-30 14:28:23 +0000 UTCCould you please say "My coyote eats yogurt from aluminum cups" in this Patroncast?
Jack
2016-07-30 14:27:41 +0000 UTCWill there ever be more Pokemon GO?
Jack
2016-07-30 14:26:33 +0000 UTCSomething a bit more moderated would be good though, Reddit isn't always the friendliest place.
Steven Fraser
2016-07-30 12:21:49 +0000 UTCHe does use his subreddit liberally.
Joshua Perry
2016-07-30 10:56:38 +0000 UTCAny chance of a fallout 4 speedrun with no glitches? It can be done in 4-6 hours on survival. Or maybe for a livestream. I put a lot of info about twitch and their rates on the most recent patreon vod. Any movement on twitch or is youtube a more likely destination for livestreams? Twitch chat is miles ahead of youtube's interface, but the chat's so important to the viewer experience you may have to get a second monitor/better Internet. Any chance you'll have a monthly livestream? Do you have a favorite Doctor? Are any of the Doctor Who games good or streamable?
Joshua Perry
2016-07-30 10:23:28 +0000 UTCHe posted on Twitter about it and mentioned there will be an episode for the game soon.
Solar Dragon
2016-07-30 09:02:59 +0000 UTCWould you play Wasted on your channel? It's a roguelike that seems to draw a lot of influence from Fallout and Borderlands so I'd be interested to see what your take on it is.
Solar Dragon
2016-07-30 09:01:53 +0000 UTCTwo questions (is that legal? Feel free to answer only one of them. Or neither. It's your video after all. :D). One, would you ever consider playing Kerbal Space Program on your channel? I know it doesn't really fit the RPG focus of the channel, so understand if you don't want to do it. Two, have you ever played any of the Portal games on this channel? I love both of the original Portals, as well as TWTM and Portal Stories: Mel. I think it'd be really fun for you to do a completes series on one or both of the original Portals so we can watch your cognitive processes in action. I don't think there's any real risk of spoilers for games that are 9 and 5 years old, respectively, and if there is, people don't have to watch the videos, right? Dan did a completes of the original Portal, and it was very fun to watch. I think yours would be much the same. Thanks for reading my very long question, and I look forward to your Patroncast.
Benjamin Ascher
2016-07-30 08:08:08 +0000 UTCI can never think of much to ask, but anyway... Do you still get excited for your birthday the night before, e.g. have trouble sleeping and getting up really early without being able to go back to sleep?
Sandwich247
2016-07-30 07:33:56 +0000 UTCWho is your favourite character on Game of Thrones and why? If you haven't watched it, what is bloody wrong with you!?
Daniel M
2016-07-30 05:18:17 +0000 UTCI was super pumped that a question of mine (it may have been asked by more people than just me, didn't check back in the comments to see if that was the case) was addressed last month, many thanks!!! Questions for this month: I'm quite enjoying Pokemon Go with my son, nephew, and GF (we rescued a kitten we found coming home from out last outing!!), so I was wondering if you were still playing, which team you had joined, and what your highest CP Pokemon is at? Yes, I'm aware how dorky this is. Any chance of seeing another crappy simulator? The channel has had to make necessary changes with its growth but there was a real charm to those vids I miss. And for a random query, would you ever skydive? I'm planning on going on my first jump in the next month or two so it's on my mind. Apologies for the wall of text, hope you are well and keep up the good work.
Ryan Selensky
2016-07-30 04:24:51 +0000 UTCHi! I'm here only to say that Stellaris is an amazing game, i really really enjoy watching it and i'm planning on buying it. Rimworld was fine too, despite being in early access.
Skye
2016-07-30 04:03:50 +0000 UTCHave you played Guacamelee? If not, I think it might be worth a Why Not Wednesday or something. I was quite late to the show with it, but I recently got round to playing it as I work through my immense Steam backlog, and it struck me as a game you might appreciate. Also, perhaps a question you've addressed before, but when you post a video of you playing a game (such as Fallout 4, for example), at the time of posting about how far have you actually progressed in a game? Like, is your game progress in a video a reflection of your actual progress in the game, or have you continued playing on and probably recording footage, but are waiting for the next installment to post that footage? I ask because sometimes I'll see you do something in a video or where you are in a game makes me think of something you might want to be on the lookout for going forward in the game, but if I comment about it in the video comments, I always wonder whether or not you've already passed the thing I'm thinking about commenting on. Anyway, keep up the great work. :D
Alex Samaras
2016-07-30 03:32:05 +0000 UTCWhen are you going to play older Bioware games, like KOTOR or Jade Empire? And where are the cat pictures I sponsor you for?
Redqueenrunning
2016-07-30 03:16:49 +0000 UTCCRPGs (Fallout, Mass Effect, etc.) seem to be among your favorite games, and it got me wondering: do you have background in tabletop RPGs (e.g., D&D and the like)?
Janta Dathorien
2016-07-30 03:03:56 +0000 UTCJon, PLEASE tell me you'll consider playing HK project when release. It looks beautiful, and there's a kitty cat.

2016-07-30 03:01:00 +0000 UTCDo people in the uk find American patriotism odd?
Themopylae
2016-07-30 02:49:39 +0000 UTCWill you be playing No Man's Sky when it comes out?
Spectacular101
2016-07-30 02:37:12 +0000 UTCAre you planning on continuing the Mass Effect series into ME3? Andromeda?

Spoogle McGee
2016-07-30 01:35:16 +0000 UTCAny hopes of seeing a new Hitman Kill Everything run or special episode?
Spoogle McGee
2016-07-30 01:33:11 +0000 UTCAre you looking into "We happy few?"
Brent Knickerbocker
2016-07-30 01:14:21 +0000 UTCNow that you've gotten a taste of rimworld do you think you'll try dwarf fortress? If you ever do I recommend reading the getting started with dwarf fortress book.
Asgeir Ingvarsson
2016-07-30 01:04:38 +0000 UTCI won't link it because I feel like self-advertising on Jon's Patreon feels super scummy but if you are intetested just YouTube my Patreon handle. :)
Rhetam
2016-07-30 00:51:59 +0000 UTCWhat is your channel?
Thomas Martineau
2016-07-30 00:48:14 +0000 UTCDoing what you do takes long hours and a lot of work. How supportive is Claire in all of this? Is she heavily involved in the channel behind the scenes? I run a startup with my wife so I've always been curious as to how involved Claire is.
Thomas Martineau
2016-07-30 00:44:10 +0000 UTCHmm, last time I missed my time to ask questions and before my questions got ignored...time to fix this 1) Would you consider the expansions to F4 slightly disappointing? Far Harbour looked good but all the building expansions just made me feel like lazy cashing in on the successful brand. 2) Do you play games just off screen without the intention to put them out? 3) Any schedule for the Witcher series yet?
Yuri1cz
2016-07-30 00:35:38 +0000 UTCThree completely unrelated questions: 1. What are crumpets? I know what the Auzzie version of crumpets are (they go very well with butter and vegemite), and what the Americans think they are (like scones?), but I suspect neither are what you would describe as crumpets in the UK. 2. I remember you saying you had recorded some of This War of Mine - any idea when that might air? 3. Have you considered playing any of the new Sherlock Holmes games (Crime and Punishments, Devil's Daughter), or even the older ones (I think you'd like the one with Cthulhu, I think it's called The Awakened or something)? I miss you doing mystery games.
Keagan Wyatt
2016-07-30 00:20:25 +0000 UTCI know you recently ran a poll on twitter on what you should do as your next grand stratagies series. You mentioned that you had never Don Civ V before. Would you consider doing a massive multilayer civ game?
Constantine
2016-07-30 00:20:16 +0000 UTCNew Vegas introduced a Hitman-esque mechanic of being able to blend in with factions by wearing their clothing, but it didn't end up being all that useful. Is this something you'd like to see the Fallout franchise explore further?
Brian Bitner
2016-07-30 00:15:56 +0000 UTCDo you ever plan to set up a MATN forum or something of that nature? A lot more YouTube comments seem to come in now and obviously that will keep happening as the channel grows so a forum would be a great way for the more active community to keep in touch. The MATN community is definitely the best I've seen there's rarely any spam or excessive negativity.
Steven Fraser
2016-07-30 00:11:27 +0000 UTCWill the window opening song from the Mass Effect livestream be available to download soon? Preferably as a maxi-single with a dozen remixes?
Brian Bitner
2016-07-30 00:10:30 +0000 UTCSo if you had to go back in time and live out the rest of your life in an ancient city (I'm thinking Greece/Rome but it could be the Prothean colony on Ilos for all I care) which city would it be and how would you make a living?
Dylan O’Connor
2016-07-30 00:09:22 +0000 UTCIf Dan offered to integrate you into NerdCubed.ltd , like make you a part of the brand/company, would you take up that opportunity?
Tonie Platten
2016-07-30 00:00:29 +0000 UTCHey Jon, new Patreon here and I've got a load of questions but I'll stick to just a few. 1. Seeing as we're now more than halfway past the year, how has being a full-time YouTuber been for you? Will you still continue being one for the time being? 2. How do you deal with negative comments/reactions/posts etc? You don't get many of them I think but everyone handles negative feedback differently. And finally, Do you have any favorite moments of your YouTube videos? Not just comedy but just things that make you happy, emotional, etc. Lastly I just wanted to say thank you for being such a huge inspiration and thanks to you I've started my own YouTube channel as well. It's not much but gaining and it's mostly inspired by your challenge runs with my own extra difficulty in them (Fallout 4 No weapons/Armor Survival mode, Dark Souls 3 No weapons/Armor). Anyway, I'm probably rambling but just wanted to say thank you and that I'm a huge fan.
Rhetam
2016-07-29 23:54:56 +0000 UTCCan you nerdcubed and two other people in your community go on the new series of time commanders please please please xD
Nathan Bennettt
2016-07-29 23:52:04 +0000 UTCWhat upcoming games are you most excited about personally and foe the challenge.? Are there any games you think will be terrible but have a lot of hype (no mans sky...)? Thanks
SpeakOfTheJoker
2016-07-29 23:51:40 +0000 UTCLove your videos Jon. Have you played Fallout Shelter? Thoughts? Would you do a video series on it?
Jason Ross
2016-07-29 23:50:20 +0000 UTCAnother difficult high stress fallout challenge run would be nice. I loved the yolo playthroughs
