The podcast returns to talk about E3 2019!

(This is a reupload. The original still needed some audio remixing.)

Enderton (Minecraft Season 1)

Found an old photo I thought I'd share! Hope you guys are having a good day.
I've been taking time off from Divinity to work on the Patreon video. Now that it's done, expect updates soon.

Welcome, newbies!

I keep getting email notifications about new Patrons. Welcome! I am taking some much needed rest, but expect individual thank you messages and a progress blog very soon!

What is Bro-Op?

Nearly one year ago, I typed this up as the Patreon page's summary of Bro-Op. It came from the heart, and it's still accurate today.
I'll be shortening the page summary, but wanted to save this message in some way. Thanks so much for all of your support.

"Hey everybody. Gatsby here. 
Sometime in 2012, my friend Chase a...

Blog: Gatsby loses his job

Ok, so I'm going to post a shorter, more cleaned up version of this little word jumble on Discord later, but here's the longer, rougher cut.

I've mentioned on stream multiple times that I have the type of job that would NOT be cool with me streaming on the side. It's one of those super "SRSBSNS" type positions that doesn't really respect t...

[Preview] Super64, Jumpscares, & Date Nights

This may get cut into two shorter videos! Who knows?

[Episode] Straight to the Point: How I Got a Refund on UPlay (The Division 2 100% CPU Usage Bug)

[Preview] Straight to the Point: How I Got a Refund from UPlay

I only have to fix two more things, and it's done!

New Tier Idea

Okay, thank you so much for the feedback on the last tier idea. It's not great.

New idea: Make an offer we can't refuse.
Backers at this tier may suggest a game for us to play. If more than one backer at this tier suggests a game, the game is voted on from this list by all patrons, and the winning game is crossed off f...

Possible new Pledge Tier Benefit

I have an idea for a benefit that I haven't seen anyone do before, so I wanted to run it by you guys.
Would you pledge to a tier that allowed access to a private version of our Google Calendar for events that you can also leave comments on? It would run as far as three months ahead, but would be changing frequently.

[Preview] Brettborne Episode 1 (minus creative edits)

I plan on having this episode finished and ready for the public one week from now. Unfortunately, it still lacks a lot of the creative flair I want it to have. However, staying true to my word, the preview goes up today.

Edit: Oh, also, I plan to re-record much of my own overblown audio. -Gatsby

[Episode] WrestleMania: Bropocalypse 2019

In 2017, Tenseiken & Justice recorded a match in a WWE videogame hoping to make a Bro-Op episode of it in time for WrestleMania that year. It didn't get finished, and was forgotten. In 2019, we reached out to fans for help voicing it over, and thanks to RealEnglishRage and GravyDigger, the footage was saved. 

[Lost] Before Bro-Op: the Tootfest Cartoons

This video was originally uploaded on April 1, 2019 and labeled as a new Starbound video. Sorry not sorry, lol.  The most recent pieces of animation shown in this video are from 2005 (and some of it before that), created on Chase's Dell XPS computer with a pirated copy of Macromedia Flash. We watched a lot of Newgrounds (especially Egorapto...

[Episode] KIDS W/ GUNS | The Blackout Club

Here's the finished, polished episode of The Blackout Club!

[Preview] The Blackout Club (Episode)

It still needs some work, but here is the episode preview almost a week before the public upload!

Bro-Op LIVE: Twitch Highlights (Part 1)

Our first Twitch highlights collection!

Let's start 2019 with a little Patron Feedback

Hey everybody. Gatsby here.

I've tried to set the Patreon reward tiers up in such a way that I can produce the content I've promised on a monthly basis, and hopefully Patrons feel like they're "getting their money's worth."

However, some months are harder than others. Take A couple of months ago, for example, when I had to push a ch...

[Episode] Dungeons & Dipshits: Talking to Animals

Probably my biggest project yet. I hope you guys like it. - jGatzB

[Progress] Dungeons & Dipshits: Episode 2 Progress Update 9

Hey guys. Gatsby here.

As I am SEVERELY behind in many of my IRL responsibilities (including Christmas shopping for my family), I have decided not work on the episode edit this week.

I do expect to have it completely finished by the end of December, along with a deleted scenes highlight reel for 12+, and hopefully another episode of...

[Preview] Dungeons & Dipshits: Episode 2 (Halfway Finished!)

Since the episode is taking me a particularly long time, here's what I've got so far, available to ALL patrons! A few things:

- The title card incorrectly says this is chapter 1. It's not. Duh.
- There's still probably some other tweaks needed for this footage.
- There will probably be at least five more minutes of footage before I am done....

[Progress] Dungeons & Dipshits: Episode 2 Update 5

Hey guys. Sorry that there is no video update this week. I was able to make some progress on the episode that I am proud of, but there's not much of it, and it's very unpolished. Still, I am confident that the cave scene will be much smoother than it was looking when I began. I expect that the next episode draft you recieve will have a lot more pol...

[Preview] Don't Starve: Trouble in Paradise

I can't decide if this needs more edits or effects or not! Either way, this will be our next mid-way video release before the next full episode!

Updated Pledge Tiers are Live!

Gatsby here. I've updated all of the pledge tiers, but several of them I couldn't change without deleting them. As a result, some of your benefits may be gone, but I made it a point to do this right before you would have been charged for the next month. Feel free to pledge again at whatever tier seems right for you.

If we hit our new Patron goal,...

Incoming Pricing & Benefit Changes!

Hi guys. Gatsby here. We've had a good first couple of months here on the Patreon, and now that I've had time to reflect on our progress, I'm ready to make a few adjustments.

These changes are based on the way I work, how often I'm able to provide content, and what I think is a more fair way to get you more rewards for your patronage.

We're three months in! Tell us what you think!

About three months ago, we put out a video where I asked for "your actual, honest-to-goodness feedback and criticism."

Now that we've had the Patreon for a little bit, it's time I asked that question again.

In the survey we created, 35+ people said they wou...

Content Update Posterino

I took a short break from Patreon content, but here's what's coming your way:
- The Patreon gives me a platform to share content that would have otherwise been deleted. My hard drive is filling up with Divinity recordings, so I have to ditch this unused Stardew Valley footage, even though I haven't had time to make more episodes of it.
- Ther...

Small payment type update!

Up until recently, Patreon would only allow creators to charge Patrons at the end of a billing cycle, rather than starting a billing cycle with a payment.

This seemed kind of backwards, but we were like "whatever, I guess that's how it works."

However, Patreon has just introduced "charge up-front." It seems to make more sense to do bu...

August Update!

Ok, so here's the current plan of events:
- We're releasing the most recent Monster Hunter video to the public on Friday. Once this video is out, we'll have sorted through ALL of our Monster Hunter footage until we play more.
- We're still technically sitting on Bloodborne footage, which is DEFINITELY coming to supporters, whether it becomes ...
