Does anyone know if/when TotalBiscuit is going to be coming out with new GW2 videos? I know he said he was going to do a lot of them, but I think he only did a few shorter ones about very specific things so far. Does he still have plans to do them?
Are you team Azeroth, team Tyria, or team Jacob?

yea has to go to finland then when he gets back he's posting the rest.. he said he didnt have time inbetween being gone on the weekend of the beta and before he left for finland to get to all of them but has a lot of time when he gets back
I think he has been on a work trip these last weekends and couldn post them, but he will post some more this week.
he got caught with his pants down on this one. I'm kind of pissed at the people on GW2 Guru bashing his wife doing a video to the best of her ability. It's one thing to bash, it's another to pounce like that. Bad form to me.
A) What are you talking about?
Can haz video?
C) If they spoke negatively about TotalBiscuit's wife for doing a half-decent video GW2 Guru should be discredited completely. Unless of course she misrepresented the game completely, and that I highly doubt.
The Theory of Conservative Conservation of Ignorant Stupidity:
Having a different opinion must mean you're a troll.
did they bash her... i thought she did a pretty good job with the mesmer. and the fact that she put it out for the fans cause tb couldnt get to it....
I kinda gave up on guru forums though. they seem to complain about alot of stuff for being a fan site and people who never played the game
Just go there, some people are jumping on her because she claimed it was easy to level as a mesmer. Others just piled on her for typical BS. Not all , but quite a few were getting all on her for it. Total nonsense and the mods seemed oblvious.
I thought her video was fine, so I don't know what they are on about...
The only video that I thought actually deserved lampooning was that ZAM guy that tries to melee his way through a dungeon as an Elementalist, hardly uses any skill other than "1," and then complains that the dungeon is too hard.
Are you team Azeroth, team Tyria, or team Jacob?
I'm not sure the entire website needs to be discredited, that seems a bit heavy-handed don't you think? If it was just a few posters on the forums, then it's really not that big of a deal. If people were discredited like that, this place would be the laughing stock of gaming forums.
Her video was fine in all honesty. I enjoyed it.
I quite enjoyed her video. I'd be happy to see a few more from her. People here at MMORPG complain about rabid GW2 fanbois. At Guru, it's like stepping into pond full of piranha, even when you're a fan. I've seen them attack other commentators too, when they made a mistake, and this was almost more than a year ago when few people were familiar with the game. And what really ticked me off about it was that the comments were glowing. They still skewered him though.
I prefer the community here, trolls and all. At least they keep us on our toes and don't let us get too full of ourselves. Here, we can't afford to eat our young like they do at Guru.
On topic: Looking forward to seeing more from TB when he gets back. I'm sure the wait will be worth it.
I enjoyed her video on the mesmer, and felt it was good straight out information. It wasn't as entertaining as his videos can be but I was glad I watched her video afterwards, which is more then I could say about the majority of them out there.
yea she did a really good jog for being thrown into it and it was one of the first videos up.. kudos to her and being a woman gamer I am usually critical of other women as I hate those that give us a bad rep =P
TB said his vids would be up in march when his load lightened he said it one of the vids he did put out before leaving town again.
The only vids i found to be bad were the ign videos... i dont think i ever seen a charicter die so often. the commentary wasnt awful just the gameplay...
Yes to condemn the whole site would be bad. but after some of the threads i read over there i just dont participate in the convo like i used to
With another forum, I'd agree. But Guru has a history with many of us here. We've seen it before and worse. That's why a few of us are all too eager to pile on when the topic comes up.
The video was fine, people need to lighten up.

they do realize she was just talking to talk... you can tell the whole video she is just trying to keep noise in the video... and what am I saying abviously they don't get that =P
well, when you have 5500 people on the forum at one time, which there were when many of the comments were made in the thread, you're bound to see a lot of stupid posts. It happens everywhere on the internet. People suck
missed that =P well then I cant give an opinion I hate reddit >.<
sorry , maybe I am a bit sensitive when it comes to the Mrs. in my own life, but the lady was trying to fill some big shoes. What she posted on reddit was something you would expect from an inexperienced player no doubt. But here treatment on the GUru forums was bad form, no matter what, that's how I saw it. Mods should be ashamed.
this, no matter what she said you don't bash someone that was trying to help the community by getting some of the footage out.
Yeah, she did do a good job of it. Just saying, if you were to just read the Guru forums, it comes off way too harsh and some people post way more level heade posts that get deleted quickly, yet this was allowed to just go on and on. I am not a TB fanatic, but the community over there needs to simmer down a bit. IMO
