I think the RLM husbandu list has Rich at the top by default.

Rich is too much of an arrogant jerk when he's not RLM's mascot, unfortunately. I've seen far too many Previously Recorded streams to think otherwise now.

Mike's continued abuse against him is actually pretty needed. And I'm thankful for it.

Details? I usually fall asleep when I try to listen to Pre Rec.

Well, this one is long, but it was one of the times I hated Rich the most. (Of course I'd watch this; not because I like this game but because I want RLM to actually give Berserk a chance. Just a shame they had to use this awful game as their intro.)

I don't know if you can make it through, but it's peppered all throughout. He's correct about how shallow Musou gameplay is, but he's also lumping in the source material with it. He's so insanely narrow minded when it comes to things he's already decided on, he actively tries to piss off the people who do like it, etc. It's completely unwarranted, really, but that's Rich at his core.

Total tsundere move, breh.

I think you're looking too deep into this shit. I mean, it's pretty obvious Rich didn't want to stream and do game reviews so if you've been coerced to do something you're not into you're probably going to be a little pissy about it.

Yet on the flip side, he's a total ego-maniac with any game he likes and wants to overplay. Look at the hours upon hours he's done of X-Com or FTL.

I get why he does it; it doesn't mean I have to like people like that.

Puh-lease. We all know you stick a Sybian on a beanbag chair and print out Rich's face and ride that mofo until morning.

He's taken anyway, bro:

I don't think so. Did you watch that behind the scenes video about it? There was literally early footage of it back in like 2008, before they even got popular. The idea's way older than that.

Alright, to prove it I'm going to be going through their back catalog. So don't act surprised when you suddenly hear from me 2 years later after I've found it.


Is that a girl or Mike in cosplay?

Also are we sure that is Rich's girl, and not a random floozy that couldn't resist his charms? (which is all women)

Yes. Her name is Karin, I believe. She's been mentioned in Pre Rec a lot. He's also engaged. Might even be married by now, who knows.

(Not much of a looker for most; almost everyone in the Pre Rec comments said she looked like a dude or Rich himself. And these were RLM fans, mind you. Ouch.)

Jay was such a dork back in the day, imagining him next to a naked woman is such a bizarre thought for me.

Ironic, since most consider him to be the only one of the RLM group capable of scoring lots of chicks these days.

Nu-Jay is physically attractive but is probably the most awkward.

Watching PreRec streams (especially the early bloodbourne ones) showed me that Rich Evans is spoony with an annoying laugh and less hair fite me.

A better example would be the Bloodlines stream.
It was meant as a big fuck you to idiots constantly recommending the same games they had no interest in.
But they failed to make it entertaining at all.
They struggle to get it to run for an hour. And when they finally got it to run, Rich can't even manage it past the tutorial while he constantly whines about it.

Two hours of misery for everyone involved just to shut some people in chat up.
 
I don't understand the appeal of PreRectum, it sounds like a bunch of boomers yelling at clouds for two hours. I like Rich a lot, he's my favorite of the core team, but the idea of listening to him Game Grumping for that long seems like such a chore.

But so many people miss it, so, what do I know?

Like she does kind of look like someone used Facep to put Rich's feminized face onto a chicks body

You're not wrong. Rich couldn't play and talk at the same time. Jack tried too hard to fill the silence left by Rich. By hour 3, most of their streams devolved into Jack singing to himself while Rich quietly played FTL for the millionth time.

There are highlights. Jay streams were good. Canadian streams were good. E3 streams were good (you can't fuck up making fun of the gay shit at E3). People like their Space Ace and Police Quest streams, but your mileage may vary.

Overall, Jack and Rich never really figured how to do the 'people work' that separates the good streamers from the wannabes.
 
There's a PreRec With Jay playlist on youtube that's basically a podcast. Once they get Jay or another guest on the stream they just start talking about ScreamFactory Blurays and weird actors instead of whatever gay video game is being played poorly in the background.
