Is it an upbeat and positive talk about the future? Every time this thread gets bumped I get a twinge of panic and foreboding.
Watched all of it, and I would say so. Brandon seems confident that most everyone will be back to do something, and they seem to be leaning to some sort of subscription model to make that happen. At the very least they want to get to streaming and the regular shows (Final Bosman, Huber Hype, GT Time, Man Ups, and trailer reviews) back up and running as they don't require a lot of pre-production and editing.
I gotta say, I'm not
quite as optimistic as some of the other people here.
The effort -
the desire - is there, certainly. But it didn't sound quite like Brandon knew
how to make the math work, to the point that I thought the interview was a little awkward when the interviewer tried to talk specifics of what the business model might look like. Greg Miller than intervened a bit, stating that their own
Kinda Funny business model took
months of planning to get straight - whereas Brandon has been forced to figure it out on the fly.
We'll see where this leads. Maybe a loose-knit collection of Twitch streams and some weekly shows like
Final Bosman, Huber Hype, GT Time, etc - supported by a subscription. The only thing that wouldn't exist in that form that I would
really miss would be reviews - as reviews take a lot more effort to put together.
I'd be perfectly fine with the above and would gladly pay the subscription. If they had an annual option, I would go that route so the pain only hurt once a year - like my yearly flu shot.
....From the interview, it sounds like there's still a lot in the air, which is understandable.
