All good, tho the Animal Crossing one is less tight and more depressed than most of his stuff. Dude is the most too-smart-for-his-own-good person I know of.

announcement: as many of you have decoded from my recent videos, i have decided to step away from full-time work at @Kotaku effective today, in order to focus on @ActionButton's #TRUCKHECK, other Exciting Endeavors, and my health. pic.twitter.com/FIDFtOuG5z— tim rogers (@108) February 3, 2020

Kind of a bummer, but he did seem pretty unhappy in that job. I'll look forward to whatever dude does next.

Guess that's me unsubbing from Kotaku's youtube channel then. No loss really as their non-Rogers content is pretty much worthless.

Tim is on the mend from the ‘vid and the patreon is live
HELLO! i have a patreon: one huge, monthly, hour-long, meticulous, unconventional video review of a game i love. i have 37 videos in the planning stages already. https://t.co/JvTEJSALnx— tim rogers (@108) April 8, 2020

i googled tim rogers patreon to grab the link, and saw this tweet, which confused me because i forgot we're in 2020 and jsut saw "current month, current year"
(hang on a second: no, i am NOT making a patreon. i get paid a salary, everybody. and no, i am not going to stream "on the weekend." weekends are for walking around manhattan, watching the @criterionchannl, eating pizza, and reading books)— tim rogers (@108) April 13, 2019

omg and the patreon link is in the tweet you posted. i am just crushing it on the internet today. absolutely smashing it

I'm of course on board. Joined at the mysterious $5 tier.

he's up to $6000 a month, he deserves it all and more!
― silby, Thursday, 9 April 2020 15:06 (four years ago) link
whoa, really? i'm not sure i've seen a patreon go that high, wow! he does deserve it. he was the last good thing remaining at kotaku, which he almost singlehandedly kept afloat the last year or so

WHY DID YOU LEAVE KOTAKU?I found myself suddenly surrounded by numerous offers and opportunities to get paid more by doing less work to produce better content, while also reaching a wider audience. Ain't that the dream? Also, I want to be able to focus on our (Action Button Entertainment's) game TRUCK HECK more.Also, the CEO was an idiot.

premiering at 4PM Pacific / 7PM Eastern / 23:00 UTC, the first Action Button review, of Final Fantasy VII Remake, over 3 hours

― silby, Monday, 25 May 2020 19:50 (four years ago) link
dope but i think i will wait until after i've played the game to watch 3 hours of tim rogers about it
― ciderpress, Monday, 25 May 2020 20:00 (four years ago) link
gonna do the opposite
― Fuck the NRA (ulysses), Monday, 25 May 2020 20:58 (four years ago) link
i don't think i'll ever play the real games. so i'm looking forward to experiencing the remake series through tim rogers

as someone who has never played ffvii and has no intention of playing ffvii or the remake this was amazing. only trouble is that i couldn't help reading everything in tim's voice for the rest of the day
― devvvine, Wednesday, 27 May 2020 09:11 (four years ago) link
"what a philosophical nightmare"
― devvvine, Wednesday, 27 May 2020 09:15 (four years ago) link
I've also never played FFVII outside of the demo, and probably never will play it, but I find it very fascinating as a pop-cultural relic, so this was worth watching for me. I'll probably avoid his video on TLoU until I've actually played that, though.
― american primitive stylophone (zchyrs), Wednesday, 27 May 2020 15:57 (four years ago) link
two hours into this it has mostly convinced me i shouldn't play it. Good review! Saved me a lot of time!
― Fuck the NRA (ulysses), Wednesday, 27 May 2020 17:14 (four years ago) link
this was fine. i mean i watched three hours without being bored. but i wasn’t at any point wowed enough by anywhere he went with it that i felt, afterwards, it had been a sound investment of my time. which i suspect is how i would feel if i got the ffvii remake so i guess it fits
