During the Jon era, Jon and Arin talked about reaching out to Mike and do something with him. I doubt Mike and Co. want anything to do with Arin but maybe Jon? The only reason I say that is Mike follows Jon on Twitter. Mike also follows PewdiePie and once followed Sargon of Akkad (sadly). I don't think Mike thinks much of Sargon now all things considered.

Arin Hanson is pretty much the poster boy for the type of people RLM is harpooning on "Nerd Crew" and I'm not sure how you could watch any of those videos and think they would want to collaborate with you.

Also RLM didn't do shit with "Previously Recorded" despite that literally being made up of RLM folks (Rich and Jack, specifically).

Reminds me of a Pre Rec stream where Jack mentioned that Super Best Friends Play invited him and Rich on their podcast but Jack claimed they never got an email back. That would have been a cluster fuck.
 
@Davidson_duo Others already explained it, but regarding the Sonic Adventure Knuckles segment where they shat on LeadFoot the whole time, yeah those emerald shards are decided by RNG, but the tutorials that come with each character and just paying attention in-game makes it clear that the radar indicator in the bottom part of the screen will turn different closers and beep more rapidly the closer you get to one and on top of that, the red orb that acts as a hintgiver in the hub world to which stage/scripted event you gotta go next also appears in these stages that when you touch it it flies in said direction to give a even more blatant hint.

Arin has no excuse to shit on the guide, considering that compared to the sequel, Knuckles' stages are pretty moderate/compact in size and it's nigh-impossible to not grasp the concept of what you're supposed to do in Knux's gameplay or how the radar works, so Arin likely mashed through whenever he's forced to read some tips or was too busy making jokes with Danny to pay attention to anything.

I can only imagine how much of a controversy/TIHYDP goldmine it would be if DSP was Arin's co-host in Danny/Jon's place.
 
I can't believe im doing this but im debunking your attempt to debunk erin (but only on 3 points)

:

-Arin rants how enemies just 'wait and do nothing', which is clearly enemies with attack and defense patterns implemented in their behavior, and all of his examples are easy to discern and dispatch quickly, to give a few examples: Deku Scrubs? They retreat by close proximity so hit with a projectile or bounce seed back. Stalfos? Backflip from their jumpslash and counter with your own. Lizalfos? Jab, shield their counter, jab, repeat. Big Skulltula's? Wait 2 seconds for their backsides to be revealed. Wolfos: Step back from their claw swipes and insta-kill them by stabbing in their exposed backs.

-You know that wait and do nothing not only implies but pretty much tells you they are extremely easy to fight, thing about pattern enemies in megaman or even dark souls is that they are hard and have progressive patterns, not the same pattern that you dont even need to follow to win (seeing as erin clearly didnt bother to learn them and breezed through the game)

- Complains that searching in a room for a switch to hit to open a door 'breaks the movement and immersion and that doesn't qualify for fun'. That's the whole advantage of 3D, that with actual objects in a space the designers could create more elaborate places like these to hide switches in, rather than out in the open.

People have the same complaint about arkham games, this thing is never good in any game it sounds good in theory but in the end its just a menial tasks that instead of challenging is more going through the motions and fucking around till you open the next door to progress in the story, i dont understand how is this an advantage to a 3d landscape when some 2d games do this as well especially those from a top down perspective its bad in any game, not just OOT.

- He thinks Z-targeting is 'complex and adds a strange disconnect' and that both camera angles don't mix. He misses the mark entirely on how Z-targeting was implemented so you won't lose track of a enemy's movement, strafe around it and actually land your blows inconsistently in a 3D space until said enemy is defeated, and you can easily either click out of it or release Z to exit it.

Even nintendo didnt like Z-targeting and the Camera in OOT they completely reworked it for the 3ds edition lol, you are not debating erin at this point to me you are debating nintendo who admits that a system worked like fucking dick, which is why u suggest completely turning it off enemy lock systems worked much better sense.

EDIT:I forgot to mention I think erin is a sperg, but I think his twitter and wife are much more interesting than his video game hot takes.

Not really sure if this would add or subtract from the whole z-targeting argument but in its defense. For ocarina of time, It was the very first time nintendo tried something like this though ya I will agree. That it was vastly improved in the later, series though not changed all that much. Since all it needed was retuning.

of course he doesnt like sargon now after all we are talking about
Mike "Take a look at the Bell Curve" Stoklasa
Mike "The Jews were behind Holodomor" Stoklasa

Y'know, given the recent stuff going on with their schedule, the louder the fandom's been screaming the "commentary > gameplay" defense given their recent escapades into playing online jigsaw puzzle and spot the difference games (no, I'm not making that up; these are actual videos they've been doing), and having their "Free Slot" be literally nothing...I've got to admit I'm morbidly curious to see how people'll react to the Super Mario Maker 2 videos. Doubly so given Arin's heavier reliance on his persona.

The last batch where Arin did fall back on it did less than stellar compared to the 100+ episode run they did (ironic, given that's arguably where this whole "raging gamer" bit started).

Now, save for weekends, that's probably going to be the only series they play on Game Grumps for months, come June 2019.

I'm not even sure that anyone from RLM would know who he is besides maybe Jack and Rich. Mike and Jay Really don't do anything related to video games, and Mike especially doesn't really want anything to do with it.
And I believe they stopped doing Previously Recorded because they simply didn't find it fun anymore.

Despite RLM even inviting Max Landis over for an interview (Which itself was both interesting, had highlights, and was hard to watch at times), I don't think there's nearly any chemistry that would happen from Arin collaborating with them, besides him fulfilling the fantasy of meeting his idols.
 
Pretty sure it was Ross’s idea. Just saying.

Mock the guy if you want, but don’t try and make up stuff that’s not there.

Who's making stuff up? By the way Ross framed his tweet, it sounds like it was Arin's idea and that Ross was going to hold him to that promise if it became a reality (making it public knowledge so Arin couldn't go back in his word).

Yes, Ross said he'd do it - but it still doesn't change the fact that he'll have to abandon his animation project for a month in order to focus on making those levels so Arin has more content to fake rage at.

Mike and Jay don’t care about anything related to video games and almost never collab with other YouTubers, I’m pretty sure they even flat out ignored Ethan Klein’s offer to come on his shitty podcast or something a while back.

Both Rich and Mike have been breaking into voice work; Rich for a Dreamworks series of shorts called Too Loud! and Mike for both Too Loud! and a new Adult Swim series called Tigtone that has some Xavier: Renegade Angel vibes to it.

It is possible that Arin wants to do some kind of collab on that end.
