I expected the whole thing to be a complete trashfire, but it's pretty entertaining so far. Severe tech issues as usual, but at least the scripted shit goes very well with the LARP foundation. If they manage fix the lagging cams, I'm going to be genuinely impressed.
All you really need to do is just follow the director cam. The designated camera man is on point.
All the fixed cams are in spots that really don't pick anything up besides Schitty and Basecamp
Most of the bodycams keep shitting out anyway and the only watchable POV's, to me at least, are Jimmy, Letty, and Greg.
 
I thought he stopped because he got some kind of permanent head injury from crashing his Prius that made it hard to do comedy.
What I'm pretty sure what happened is that he tried to pivot to other video things, wasn't really making any money and having a hard time shaking his reputation and fanbase. He also didn't try very hard. If you remember he immediately launched into a male feminist character after ending Deagle Nation and it wasn't very funny and didn't take off because his old fans kept commenting on all of his videos ruining the gag. He tried a couple other things and then DFEd in a non-spergish way, intentionally fading into obscurity. Any appearance he's made since has had his face blurred out, the only exception being Sam's Great War series which was supposed to relaunch his "career" but ended up being a flop. Seems kind of funny though.


He used to have a computer repair business but personally I think that was just a front to avoid his troll shit showing up first in Google results. This is just based off following it closely and reading between the lines. I don't know for sure. All I know is he's a master of deception. Calling him a liar seems unfair, but at the end of the day he'll say whatever he feels like he needs to say. Deagle Nation was an absolutely top tier troll and performance art but it pretty much happened on accident. It wasn't some grand plan.

Props to Xavier for putting up with all this bullshit lmao

Context: Sam was chasing Xavier. Fish helped hide Xavier. Xavier revealed he has a piece of the Duke's soul. Xavier asked to drink the blood from Jon's finger wound, when Jon refused he kicked the cheeseballs in Jon's face. Jon and Xavior sword fought with Xavier saying things like "I'm in bat form, you can't hit me" and "I use terror of the night spell, you're afraid now, I can only use that spell every 24 hours." Eventually Jon went back to camp and Xavier collapsed in exhaustion, asking for an inhaler his mom left him. I think Jon got another warn for fail rp after since he was attacking Xavier in bat form.

edit Cheeseball kick:

Jon is such a retard, I love him. He has no idea what any of this 'roleplaying' is and only sees blood. For anyone who didn't see it. Xavier was HUMBLED. He ran past camp, fleeing from the duke on horseback (his dirtbike). After he escaped and the duke yelled at the camp asking where that traitor was, he left only for Xavier to come slinking out from behind the beds asking if anyone had an inhaler. Xavier is so fucking good. While he was on the ground catching his breath after sprinting away from a bike, it was announced to be dinnertime! Time to cook! Jimmy started trying to light the fire while Xavier gave his own view of the situation. Jon had offered to let Xavier lick the blood off his fist earlier in the day, partially as an insult to him(?), but now he was asking to take Jon up on the offer and clean off a finger for blood. Jon took this as a personal insult and told him no in some retard language I didn't catch. Xavier in a fit of vampire rage KICKED over the camp's cheese-ball barrel. Jon jumped into action and started swinging on Xavier with swords, but not before Xavier had his own dukes up.

Jon was hit a few times, unsure if Xavier was but even if he was he has a vampire shield I imagine for plot reasons. After he realized Jon wasn't gonna stop even after being hit Xavier said loudly "I CAST BAT FORM AND FLY AWAY!!!" before turning away from jon and flapping his arms as he ran. Jon was not amused and resumed chase, still trying to hit him.

Only after running all the way to town, did Xavier yell "I CAST TERROR OF THE NIGHT!! YOU'RE FULL OF FEAR NOW!! I CAN USE THIS POWER ONCE A DAY!!" where Jon turned to the camera asking if 'dat was allowhed." I assume the camera man nodded because John left in a huffy rage to tell everyone back at camp he NEEDS Jet to explain the rules of this game (again). After a few minutes of moping he went directly back to town to hit xavier some more only to be told he had a fail RP warning off-camera I assume.

Its entertaining and so fucking frustrating at the same time lol. Everybody else is at least making an attempt at following the rules and roleplaying, while Jon comes in doing his usual topj shit. He didnt even yell any bible quotes while chasing a vampire.
 
Has a reason been givin why the majority of the body cams don't seem to work? Just the tree cams and the director cam for me. And why is Greg never with the rest of the group I thought he was a normal contestant

The cams get taken off to be recharged and Greg is supposed to be an NPC but is filling in for Vance who is meant to be there soon
 
My initial impressions were that I hated this. But it grows on you.
Agreed. For the first few hours this was unbearably cringe, but it's slowly transforming into kino. I forget who said it earlier in the thread, but the beginning really did feel like one of those Nostalgia Critic movies where they're trying too hard to be funny and it's just lame. I'm not sure if I'm just enjoying the shitshow or if there's any genuine entertainment/comedy value here but I'll stick around. Jet still sucks dick tho

This is something I've come to terms with Jon during his stint on season 1. You get a folly when it comes to Jon. You get #Jontent, which is genuinely entertaining, but sometimes it can be to the detriment of the show itself. That said I think it's well worth the trade off.
