June (probably) Patroncast submissions, plus some free codes!
Added 2016-06-25 22:51:51 +0000 UTCHi all,
It's time once again for the Patroncast, where you say things, and I say other things back in response to the first things. Apologies this one is even being announced a bit late - we've been a little distracted with the EU business. Naturally, though, please feel free to ask about that if you wish, and I'll be talking a bit about it too.
Also, here's a free key for Fallout 4's Contraptions DLC - first to claim it gets it -
AL4KM-BCCX8-BCYRD
And if you have a Vive, here's a key for a VR game - Cosmic Trip, though please don't redeem this unless you have a Vive - you won't be able to play it. Again, first come, first served -QNAA6-R3W4V-XMEAE
Thanks all,
Jon

Who is your favourite character in Game of Thrones? If you haven't watched it, then why haven't you watched it!?

2016-06-29 20:08:52 +0000 UTCWith how much time youtube can take up are you having enough lesure time/time with Claire?
Tonie Platten
2016-06-29 19:00:16 +0000 UTCJon since you play so many shooters but live in a country with few guns have you ever shot a gun? Would you be interested in doing so?
Zack
2016-06-28 22:57:53 +0000 UTCI really am interested in your first hand take on Brexit. I know you mentioned before that a lot of your fan base is in the USA, I'm no exception, and it would be good to know a native's view other than the reports in the papers.

2016-06-28 20:32:40 +0000 UTCWhen could we expect Witcher 1 to begin ? Could you do a recreation of the Brexit with the different protagonist in Fallout 4 (like you superhero thingy) ?
Julien Demantes
2016-06-28 20:18:38 +0000 UTCMy apologies, but my financial situation has changed since I first started pledging, and I have reduced my pledge, though I really do love the work you're doing and want to keep supporting you! Do you have access to the demographics of who is supporting you and the value of the pledge? How does this compare to YouTube subscriber demographics?
Thomas Malone
2016-06-28 19:53:27 +0000 UTCHey Jon, have been meaning to ask for a while, how far in advance do you record videos? The no guns run finale was finished before e3, and released weeks later, whereas just the other day "technical conflippery" delayed the release of New Vegas survival mode. In addition to this, do you find yourself reading the comments less when the video was made further in advance, where the comments can't really change what happens in later episodes?
Thomas Malone
2016-06-28 19:35:06 +0000 UTCHave you ever played Mount and Blade Warband? I got it on the Steam Sale recently and it's a lot like Total War. I think it would make a fun mini seires
Tanner Rubenacker
2016-06-28 04:18:44 +0000 UTCAlso any chance of more Mass Effect? No guns was so long ago
Jamie Bell
2016-06-27 22:42:03 +0000 UTCA little fallout recommendation: Caedo Genesis! He has great info on the rare weapons and apparel for new Vegas and 3
Jamie Bell
2016-06-27 21:59:04 +0000 UTCPlease address the cultural implications of the fact that you refer to Sanctuary's Asian resident Jun Long by the Hispanic name Juan. Also, you shall henceforth be known as Joan. I'm afraid there's no other way.
Brian Bitner
2016-06-27 19:47:05 +0000 UTCHow are you feeling about Survival mode so far? Would you like one final Nightmare/Legendary/Holy Shit mode which pushes the difficulty to extreme limits? What new mechanics would you add? #YouAreFrustratedFromLackOfPooping
Brian Bitner
2016-06-27 19:36:29 +0000 UTCJacopo, it was specifically noted in the rules of the referendum that it was advisory. The parliament can in fact ignore the results if they want, and I suspect that is exactly what they will do. <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/green-eu-referendum-not-legally-binding-brexit-2016-6" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://www.businessinsider.com/green-eu-referendum-not-legally-binding-brexit-2016-6</a>
Kurt Mueller
2016-06-27 19:33:41 +0000 UTCAssuming Nuka World is in fact the final DLC and there are no surprises, how do you feel about only 2/6 of the add-ons being landmass expansions, especially considering how the price increase had us assuming we were getting so much more?
Brian Bitner
2016-06-27 19:29:42 +0000 UTCFYI here's Jon and company discussing it for 3+ hours! <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DX6o2Pjy6D8" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DX6o2Pjy6D8</a>

Brandon Dean
2016-06-27 18:09:25 +0000 UTCplease give us at least 3-5 minutes of thoughts on Brexit, very interested to hear your perspective!
Thomas Seeba
2016-06-27 14:55:30 +0000 UTCYou can not ignore the results of a referendum, that's against the most basic principle of democracy, that would set a very, very dangerous precedent.
Skye
2016-06-27 11:40:42 +0000 UTCAre you really as bad a cook as you make out? Why hasn't Claire forced you to learn yet?
Soronlin
2016-06-27 11:37:04 +0000 UTCPlease not too much on the EU, although with all the interest shown you're probably going to have to mention it. I'd rather hear how you think VR will affect gaming. What will it bring that nothing else can? And further forward, what are the signs you can see of the future of gaming, like ten or more years ahead, not just next year.
Soronlin
2016-06-27 11:35:52 +0000 UTCI checked the Referendum Act, just to be sure. There is absolutely no reference to what the government has to do in response to it. At the moment there would be outrage if it was ignored. In six months time, maybe not.

Jamie Bell
2016-06-27 10:54:32 +0000 UTCWith Fallout 4 ending it's DLC run does this make you optimistic for a Fallout 4 spinoff with the same engine or do you think Bethesda is going to move over to Elder Scrolls VI?
Zack
2016-06-27 05:19:52 +0000 UTCI've noticed that you are a big Fallout fan. Have you ever herd of Fallout Equestria? It's a crossover fic between Fallout and My Little Pony. It is one of the seminal works in the MLP fandom and is an unbelievably good story. It has spunoff it's own fandom with full on games based on the story line and a mod for New Vegas. It actually got me into the Fallout universe. I relies quit a bit on the MLP universe and was completed before season 3 so if you are interested in reading it, I would highly recommend watching at least season 1 to get a sense of the characters and Equestria in general. (Yes the first two episodes are a bit cheesy, but it really picks up). <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/falloutequestria" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.reddit.com/r/falloutequestria</a> <a href="https://yp1.yayponies.no/episodes.php" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://yp1.yayponies.no/episodes.php</a>

2016-06-27 02:42:56 +0000 UTCHi, Jon! I was interested in your reaction to the E3 announcements, especially with Fallout 4 and Nuka World. I'm a little skeptical of the last DLC for FO4, as it doesn't seem to have the same feel as something like The Divide did; that feeling of closure. I know a lot of people had theorized that all of the empty ocean area on the map would be the focus of a DLC; did you hope that, too? Thank you!
Erin Trickett
2016-06-27 01:41:39 +0000 UTCHow many videos do you have in the "Emergency Bad Internet" bin?
Zack
2016-06-26 23:17:07 +0000 UTCHey Jon! happy to see the June patroncast in early July. Now, Will we ever see more Vive content. Also to actually see you moving around using said vive. It would be funny, like in the last vive episode, where you grabbed the computers hat, and tried to balace yourself on the table!
Lucas Anderson
2016-06-26 23:03:50 +0000 UTC(If you don't want to go into politics don't answer this question). I am an American (and 14 years old) who has mostly conservative thoughts and I was hoping you could tell me more about the whole Brexit thing. How it effects people and what will happen now that Britain is going to leave the EU. I'd also like to know you're opinion on it. (As far as I know you wanted to stay.) Anyway thanks and I really enjoy the videos and think you are one of the best YTers along with Gopher. (Sorry for the novel btw)
Tanner Rubenacker
2016-06-26 23:02:18 +0000 UTCTwo questions. 1. How will Brexit effect YouTube? 2. Will this be up in June or July?
Themopylae
2016-06-26 22:38:39 +0000 UTCIs there any particular video where you put a large amount of effort into but it was not received as well as you expected or vice versa?
Henry Hardwick
2016-06-26 21:01:21 +0000 UTCHai Jon. No question here, just best wishes for you and Claire. I hope you are doing well and holding on despite the results of the referendum.
Thomas
2016-06-26 20:30:28 +0000 UTCSo after the obligatory MATN hoodie, poster flip lighters, garden gnomes and coasters are we going to see a MATN Cookbook? Was going to go down the brexit route, but I've had enough of politics for a couple of weeks...
CodingEntity
2016-06-26 19:07:31 +0000 UTCPlease talk a bit about livestreaming, are you Twitch partner already?
Joshua
2016-06-26 18:11:57 +0000 UTCFavourite British comedy movie/show?
Cale
2016-06-26 17:33:24 +0000 UTCJon, do you have any more plans for livestreaming? I loved the first one. If yes, have you looked into using youtube gaming at all? As a viewer, it seems to run a lot better than twitch with fewer interruptions.
Madison Perez
2016-06-26 16:42:25 +0000 UTCWould you rather have scales for skin, and shed them every so often like a snake? Or fur like your cat Tabby that you have to keep clean and shed. Also, would you rather go on a date with Boris Johnson or Michael Gove?
Oscar
2016-06-26 13:47:50 +0000 UTCYou mentioned thinking of playing Fallout 1 or 2, could you give a guess on when you might be doing that? I'd love to see it in action. Obviously the graphics are a bit dated but you play quite a few pixel art sort of games so people probably won't mind, plus it's Fallout.
Steven Fraser
2016-06-26 12:22:41 +0000 UTCHow will brexit effect you personally, how will it impact your business, how will it impact claire, what is she doing, what will she do if she can't stay, will you both move, where will you both move, when will you both move if you both have to move; etc etc etc etc etc etc etc

Teddy Boragina
2016-06-26 10:27:36 +0000 UTCWhy should people vote differently? Did they seriously think that that was a joke? Anyway i don't live there, do you think there is any real chance of a redo?
Skye
2016-06-26 08:49:03 +0000 UTCI'm going to be starting Fallout 4 for the first time soon. Any short, simple advice for someone new to these types of games? I know I like talky type stuff, but that's just about the limit of my character goals.
itches
2016-06-26 08:32:25 +0000 UTCWith EGX coming back up soon in September, do you have any plans to attend again this year? If so, any plans for an actual official "Meet the Jon" event? :P
Elizabeth L
2016-06-26 08:18:58 +0000 UTCHave you ever watched or thought of doing speedruns? With Summer Games Done Quick just around the corner it always gets me thinking!
Rebecca Kettridge
2016-06-26 08:08:53 +0000 UTCThere's a petition to the government to hold a second referendum, now that many Leave idiots are saying "Oh, we didn't actually think it would happen!", showing the real downsides of democracy. Not sure how I feel about a redo, on the one hand I desperately want to remain in the EU, on the other it sets a very dodgy precedent for people questioning every public vote from now on. Either way, I severely doubt it'll happen.
Spoogle McGee
2016-06-26 04:25:28 +0000 UTCI'm wondering about something very old actually. Was the possibility of finishing Assassins Creed Syndicate totally off the table now? Only reason I ask is you mentioned wanting to do a playthrough of your favorite Assassins Creed game after you were done with Syndicate. Either AC2 or Black Flag. AC2 is just one of my favorite games and I selfishly want you to play it ^_^
Jonah Dube
2016-06-26 04:20:00 +0000 UTCI am very curious to hear your thoughts on the EU referendum as are many of your fans based on the responses posted this far (and you strike me as an intelligent individual which will give me as an American more insight from a common man as it were), but I'm also wanting to know when we can expect more Vive gameplay. Even the games you played the Dan had covered before were fresh with your style; it was entertaining seeing you interact in a VR environment in MATN style. I'm cautiously optimistic about the format, and getting more of your feedback on titles will be nice before I make my decision on when to take the plunge and invest in my own. Also wondering if we can expect any throwback titles in the near future, even the one-offs of some older games have been among my favorites on the channel. Looking forward to the next Patroncast, be well sir.
Ryan Selensky
2016-06-26 03:54:46 +0000 UTCGlad you're talking about the EU business, I've been following your tweets, but it'll still be good to hear more about it. Also, I'm curious how you feel about the last of 6 Fallout 4 DLCs being announced...not just the last 3 but all 6 together when compared to the content given for Fallout 3 and New Vegas.
Kasper the friendly ghost
2016-06-26 02:27:41 +0000 UTCHey Jon, I was wondering what your specific thoughts were regarding the startling bit of nationalism that seems to be going on in the UK regarding the brexit crisis. I know you've covered it a lot in your tweets, but I respect your opinions thus far and would like to hear more about it from your perspective. Do you also see any see any similar patterns here in the US with the rise of Donald trump? I would also like to hear your input regarding long term consequences for other EU countries perhaps leaving? Also would love to hear some thoughts for your next big fallout run. Thanks again for doing all of this: watching your videos is easily one of the best parts of my day
Andrew Hamilton
2016-06-26 02:20:11 +0000 UTCWhen I listen to Dan I can hear comedic influences like Eddie Izzard and the Simpsons come through in his delivery. Do you feel that you have any comedic influences in your delivery?
Chloe Wilson
2016-06-26 01:23:48 +0000 UTCWhat are your thoughts on the new Legend of Zelda game?
Hunter Matthews
2016-06-26 01:02:46 +0000 UTCJon, when you were talking about the EU Referendum you mentioned that you're a second generation immigrant. What country did your family come from?

2016-06-26 01:00:40 +0000 UTCalso, as I forgot to ask last time, how did you manage to become involved in the Podcats, with Dan and Matt

Jack
2016-06-26 00:38:00 +0000 UTCWhat are your thoughts on this year's E3 announcements and have you played the grognak pip boy game?
Tom Beers
2016-06-25 23:19:12 +0000 UTCDefinitely a minute or two on Brexit... Although Kevin points out above that you have tweeted about it and perhaps mentioned it in the half of Podcats I didn't catch on Twitch, I think it would be great to hear your thoughts on it in a less peripheral medium (i.e., we aren't all consistent Twitter users/Podcats listeners). ☺️
Eric Place
2016-06-25 23:18:06 +0000 UTCNo, they will leave, it is stated by a referendum they actually have to. I hope they will return back in a few years once the geniuses who have voted this madness will have had some time to think about it.
Skye
2016-06-25 23:13:05 +0000 UTCWhat do you expect the long term picture for the UK is post Brexit? Not party politics but culturally, how severe do you think the backslide will be? How do you feel about the (very likely) Scottish succession. a lighter question for if you don't want too much political detail. Dishonoured, have you played it, will it be on the channel, are you interested in the sequel?
George Morgan
2016-06-25 23:12:47 +0000 UTCI somewhat doubt that the UK is actually going to leave the EU. I suspect that a few months from now the powers that be will be saying "lol, jk, nevermind". I doubt the UK actually invokes article 50.

Praetorian
2016-06-25 23:00:50 +0000 UTCYou should take a look at his tweets of the last 48 hours and it should give you a good idea of what he thinks about this topic. Also i believe he did a podcast yesterday about this with matt and a few others
Kevin Stephan
2016-06-25 22:59:36 +0000 UTCIn the fallout 3 New Vegas YOLO run, you wore Vera's dress in the end of the last part. But, you had previously given Vera's dress to Veronica at 18:35 in part 40. So, my question: Did you steel back the only thing that Veronica ever said that she wanted, even after blowing up all her family in the bunker? Just how much of a monster are you?
Kurt Mueller
2016-06-25 22:59:27 +0000 UTCWhat do you think about the brexit referendum results? I can't say i'm shocked, but i'm really disappointed that 40+ years of collaboration and international relationships improvements have been wasted by this vote. (Sorry for the political question)
