Bryan Gillespie

Why only one tier??? Add more membership tiers!!!!

Thomas Barker

Honestly love being able to support y’all more directly now!

James

First time hearing the McElroys on Patreon. Is this a new era for the boys?

mod2amaryllis

rainy day!!! it's been a rough February lol

Brendan Bergen

Never joined a Patreon before, but this is my favorite podcast so I had to support :)

Benjamin McCown

Love this show! $5 a month to show my support was the least I could do for the hundreds of hours of content yall have provided me over the years.

Mallory Carpenter

Most of these are great, but Most Kojima moment made me snort so I picked that.

Mycomancer

Proposal for a book bracket.

Jani Saarijarvi

I want the Tttwwiissttsss one but I’m afraid you’ll spoil games I didn’t even know have twists so I voted for first levels

Dustin Siegel

I would like hear your top ten games of all times lists. (For each of you instead of as a bracket.) It would give us a ton of additional valuable insight into each of your gaming tastes and preferences. When putting my top ten list together, the top three slots where pretty easy to choose, surprisingly, it was the 9th and 10th slots that were really hard for me to decide on and really made me think about what I actually loved about playing video games.

Alice

Humble request: for bracket episodes bring back the original Polygon version of the theme

Matthew Brown

Can we get a couch coop in 2024 bracket? I know we all know the classics but it would be nice to see the ones that still hold up, can still be easily played on something near a couch and our the besties faves.

Connor Young

Could be fun to have hour long multiplayer streams as bonus episodes every once in a while! But Lord knows I’m not tryna ask people to work more. Glad Patreon’s happening!

Garrett Troxler

This is way tougher to pock poll than I thought it would be.

Erik W

voted for rainy day. selfishly, more spoiler episodes would be my favorite. Though I get that it could alienate part of your audience

SakuraMew

I would love to hear a little segment of what your guys’ cosy games are (hence I voted for rainy day game!)! You guys have gotten me into quite a few games outside of my personal usual cosy games choices, so would just be interested to hear a set list of what y’all would pick as your own cosy games. Also, was kind of attempting to boycott persona 3 reload to due no Fem MC (I played p3p on emulator when I was around 15 so having Fem MC holds a special place in my heart) , but I’m now playing it this weekend because after listening to the new main besties episode yesterday, I couldn’t keep my grubby little hands off!

Leo Herzog

I'm lukewarm on bonus content, really just want to support you guys. Would you consider doing ad-free main show episodes? I'm very interested in that.

Thomas Barker

Would y’all consider adding the main show ad-free to the Patreon feed? I thought I’d get the newest episode through there but realized it was only on my main feed still. I assume maybe you’d want to keep the subscriber numbers high on that feed as well, or something, but thought I’d ask :) love y’all!!

Melissa O'Neil

I’d love a bracket of Pokémon games!

billfromamerica

I don't know if this a capabilty of the site, but I'd love to be able to pick more options. I felt the same about the resties poll the other day. Anyway, love the show! I'm happy to throw a couple bucks your way!

Kenneth Herrell

Best Mascot is just an automatic win for the shopkeeper in RE4 innit?

KK

Voted for best video game twist! But if you’re taking suggestions: would love franchise-specific brackets kind of like your GTA episode on the main feed. (An Assassin’s Creed bracket would could be really cool!) Also, love the deep dives into franchises like you did on Batman games recently. Anyway, excited for this new phase of the show!

Daniel Klug

All the top picks are winners!

Evan

Best mount!!

Clay Grumieaux

Looking forward to the brackets. Thanks so much, guys 🙏

Glorious Griffin

I will listen to anything you put out. This is the first Patreon I’ve supported, it was a no question immediate support. Keep up the great work gents

BestestNerdDad

Best first level is such a neat idea.

Justin Lance

How about to fine tune best first level - games where the beginning sets the stage for the feel of the game perfectly. Or “best first level” works 😅

Rich S

Loved best first level, so that got my vote. Also, as someone who spends all their work day listening to game soundtracks - or lofi versions of game music - I’d really appreciate a bracket of all time best video game soundtracks, or a resties on your personal favourites. Give me some more albums to add to the mix 😄

X_Blade_Mage

Not poll related, but have y'all considered also making a patron discord?

BeerMage

I would love to see a most dissapointing final boss bracket to mirror the first one

Charles Gaglione

Best hub world would also be a great topic at some point!

Jake S

Maybe too specific, but best Metroid bosses across the series ?

mads

Best color design. Costumes, studio reps, Easter eggs, vehicles, jak and Daxter 2 facial expressions 😵‍💫😮😏

mads

Please have on funches more and see if you can reel in some dorks from dropout. I'll pass out.

Obi-J Kenobi

Best Zelda tool by game era. Breath of the wild totally changes the item game. Divide it into 2D, 3D, Open world.

Beeg Yoshi

I’ve loved this show since 2017, five out of five smiley flowers. Yoshi!

Casual Flying

If we get a "Best Twist" i hope you guys mention the absolutely untelegraphed left turn that was Brutal Legend.

Devan Burris

Re Twists: I know the game itself isn't the most popular among fans of the franchise but I still to this day can not think of a video game twist that left me as stunned as the end of Far Cry 5. Despite all criticisms of the game, getting the 'good guy ending' was one of my favorite twists of all time. Can't wait to see what you guys put out next!

IHaveARussFrushtickBodyPillow

I just went on a twenty minute laughing explanation of how Kojima has just spent the last decade or so scanning his heroes and friends, which is such a wild past time. Also that thing about how he scanned the mocap actors' feet? Hilarious. Kojima is an all-timer

Adam Wainwright

How about best in-game mini-game? (Gwent, Queen’s Blood, the Toilet Destroyer game from SP: FBW, etc.)

tellurdogisaidhi

idk if you all want ideas but wanted to comment a couple here: "best video game soundtrack"; "best game perk or powerup that changed gaming"; "best game to fall asleep to"

Daniel Urban

For twists: I think "The Sexy Brutale" belongs in the mix

Meg

I saw someone commented best hub world, but you could also consider its cousin: best open world
