Feels weird hearing these people talk about amusement parks when they look like they would have trouble meeting weight requirements for most of the rides.

Didn't see this posted yesterday, so I'll post it here: Rooster Teeth announced yesterday on their Twitter, ahead of their RvB segment, a brand-new machinimated "detour series" for Red vs. Blue Zero, titled "Family Shatters".
(Archive)
Fan reactions have ranged from "Meh" to "Oh sweet Jesus tap-dancing Christ, just let the show die already!"

I imagine they're gonna be stuck doing detours forever because a majority of the og voice cast is gone lmao. Joel quit and he voiced the most popular character. Burnie sold his shit off and gave em two fingers and cloud of dust like he promised. Kathleen called Burnies new wife a whore who slept her way to the top of RT.

Do Jason (Tucker) and Dan (Donut though the thought of that character coming back with how RT is these days is a laugh) even do anything with RT anymore? They were already ghosts back when I watched but I don't think I've ever heard anything from them. That leaves 3 Reds in Gus, Geoff and Matt and 0 blues.

Yeah, I don't think they do anything with RT anymore. Jason is a musician and Dan is an actor (at least that's what google says) so they don't really need RT. They chose to do their own thing and I can't blame them. That's the path everyone currently at RT should choose as well.

Oh no you misunderstand.

It's a detour season to tide people over while they develop Zero's second season: RvB Zero: Wheels Up.

I wish RvB would just die already. As of RvB Zero (out of ten), it's like the webseries equivalent of the Ship of Theseus. Every single original part has been replaced, with the exception of the PSA videos, which include gems like these as they try to cling to relevancy:
(the viewcount is hilarious btw)

I mean, Red vs Blue has well past the point where they passed the torch to RWBY in terms of being the #1 IP of Rooster Teeth. Apparently some people still want it and RT hasn’t tired of making it. That or RT knows that they have nothing to replace it with except more RWBY supplemental material. Or both of those things.

They’ve been throwing shit at the wall for years trying to find a new tent pole.

RvB still exists because that failed and, I presume, it generates enough revenue to eek out a meagre RoI which is better than nothing.

that they have consistently failed to make anything since RWBY stick is not surprising, considering their nepotistic approach to hiring writers.

Reactions: 3MMA, Suikafag and Insalubrious
It's not exactly nepotism, they just keep hiring superfans that have no outside life experiences. It worked ten years ago because most of the hires had done stuff outside of RT but the ones they're picking up now are life-long RT fans and their only hobbies or interests have been RT their whole lives

Of course it would a side scroller. Cause anything else would’ve sucked. So they took the easy route with a fixed camera so they don’t have to work as hard

I'm not gonna call it shit just yet, because Wayforward has a part in making it, and they've made River City Girls and the Shantae series, so side scrolling is their bread and butter.

Now? This has been their hiring MO for at least the last 10 years. For example, Gavin, Barb, and Blaine were lifelong fans as well and had barely any experience before join RT.

They’ve wanted to maintain that “We’re just bunch of friends” mentality as that’s the core of their business. Turns out, running a company entirely based on the parasocial relationship with your fans isn’t a sustainable business model.
