January MATN Patroncast submission call!

Hello all!

I'll be recording the January MATN Patroncast this weekend, probably to come out on January 31st.


I already have a couple of ideas for a things to chat about - the new video formats I've been playing with recently, and why January is the worst time for YouTubers - but your questions and random comments will of course be answered too, so leave any below :)


Oh, and I'll be dragging Claire into this one too - so any questions for Claire are welcome this month :)


Jon

Comments

Will Podcats be coming back?

Emil

Your work has inspired me to try to make some videos of my own -- I'd love to someday make money off of my love for games, as you do. Right now I'm just focused on practicing my delivery of commentary and training myself to be more slow and deliberate about camera movement, and soon I'm going to dive into the recording and editing. Once I get to that point, do you have any suggestions as to how I could go about getting useful feedback and criticism?

rocketfox

Congrats on 150k subs! Loved the special video. Did you plan the list and if so how long did it take? Will your Fallout 4 review have end game spoilers? I've had exams so am rather behind and just watch a new video every time I finish a main quest mission. Regarding the YOLO for 4, there is an Endurance perk (End 9 I think?) that makes ghouls non hostile which would give you more friend ghouls. Unfortunately it causes radiation to heal you so goes against the non-healing rules. Although without that I am seriously concerned at how you'll overcome all the rads. What happened to the NerdCubed PodCats? I was so excited for them so hopefully they will still be a thing. Thanks for all the effort you put in to create such great, regular content! The channels really improved since you went full-time (and let's be honest it was already pretty bloody good). And now that my exams are over I can't wait to catch up on everything I've missed and put some solid hours into Fallout again.

Hazel

BTW, just want to say this entire thing you do just for Patrons is pretty awesome!

ECH

Question: horse or pi?

ECH

I literally just found out what you're referencing 😂😂😂

Purple Disarray

Reaction ? Careful ! We don't want the Fines Bros to sue us !

Julien Demantes

Claire : Where are you from in France (I'm from Tours) ? What food or drink do you import into England that you can't survive without ?

Julien Demantes

First of all, Jon, congrats on 150k subs and keep up the good work! My question is for Claire regarding the Fallout New Vegas No-Kill Alternate Universe (or FNVNKAU, if you will). When we flipped over to Claire's French commentary did you come up with all of that commentary on your own? Or did Jon script some or all of it?

Mike Waraksa

One or two important questions mainly for Claire: Claire: Do you have any fantasy recommendations for someone whose favourite author is Brandon Sanderson, and whose favourite series are more along the lines of his Mistborn & Stormlight Archive books in characterisation, plot, and writing quality, and Terry Goodkind's Sword of Truth & Christopher Paolini's Inheritance Cycle in terms of setting? Do you have any sci-fi recommendations, focusing on books or series that successfully mix harder sci-fi and soft sci-fi, without resorting to technobabble? This is more for research than enjoyment.

Chris de Mercado

Jon: I had an idea after playing Fallout 4 YOLO on survival and surviving it easily: you should try it without power armour. Now for the question. Would you be open to the following bet: If you manage to beat Fallout 4 YOLO without power armour, I will donate let's say 100 quid to a charity of your choice. If you fail, then you have to donate and I get to pick one.

Thomas

Jon: Congratulations on your newest youtube sub count! The Pokemon list was interesting and worth the extra time to listen to it all. Even if you cannot be forgiven for ex-ing Mienshao. ;)

Erin Trickett

Jon: Congratulations on your newest youtube sub count! The Pokemon list was interesting and worth the extra time to listen to it all. Even if you cannot be forgiven for ex-ing Mienshao. ;)

Erin Trickett

Where did you hide Claire's corpse?

Cale

Having played all of the DLC for Fallout 3 and New Vegas, what would you like to see in DLC for Fallout 4? Any plans to do a DLC wish-list video?

Jason Ross

Hey Jon, do you think ISIS, or Daesh, is a group with limited resources and manpower which could be stopped by a coalition of powers, or does its basis around a fundamentalist ideology mean it will continue to exist in some form or another for the foreseeable future? Also do you plan to continue making Fallout 3/ New Vegas runs after Kill Everything remastered, or focus more on Fallout 4?

Billy

Hello! Firstly, big congratulations on your achievement, more than well-deserved! :) Here are some questions: where/when is the next booking/baking video? Please? Pretty please? With cherry on top (or chocolate eggs... A LOT OF THEM AS WE'VE ALL SEEN)?

Maja

Jon, is your French decent? Or do you kind of stand there smiling and saying "we, we" when your in-laws visit?

balthamossa2b

Congrats on 150,000 subscribers! Glad to see the channel is growing. A question: What did you do before you did YouTube full time? And how/why did you get into whatever field that was?

Hunter Matthews

One for Claire, What are your opinions on England compared to France? (guessing places purely from accents)

Gareth Williams

As a guy with a girl who loves doing coop gaming, we kind of look to you two as role models for the gaming side of our relationship. But I have to ask the both of you, are there any great two-(or three) person coop games that we might have missed, in particular any lurking in the bowels of Steam? Always looking for a new coop fix!

Jonathan Bailey

You may have answered this in a previous podcast, so apologies if it's a repeat question: Do you record the gameplay and commentary on a single audio track, or separately? I imagine it's easier to edit videos if all audio is on the same track, but the drawback would be that you couldn't edit your own commentary.

MikeBurnFire

Keith, that game is flipping terrific and genuinely I'd like it to become an ongoing series^ Jon, how does Claire feel about Disney's depiction of the French in the 1991 animated classic 'Beauty and the Beast'?

Eric Place

optionally, a non-invasive "day in the life" biopic of the MATN process and how you and claire maintain your sanity would be a lovely touch.

Silas Gray

What game are you looking forward to most this year?

Allison Otting

You may have addressed this previously and I missed it, but: are you considering a series on Mass Effect: Andromeda when it comes out? I really enjoyed watching you play Fallout 4, and I'd love to see a similar series for ME:A. And this is rather a random question, but what are you reading/what have you recently read that you really enjoyed?

Janta Dathorien

Having now played both, what's your take on Fallout 4 vs. Fallout New Vegas? Pros/cons of both and so forth?

Jan Bednarczuk

I'll donate a kidney if you do more jet force gemini and omerta!

Jamie Bell

i'll just come out and state what everyone else is dancing around: it's time that a british delegate issued an official apology for any and all circumstances leading up to the creation of robert pattinson.

Silas Gray

Jon, will you ever play Xenonauts? It's an isometric turn-based-strategy game that harkens back to the original X-COM. I think a video of series of this game would be a great addition to the channel.

Benjamin Ascher

John: You've mentioned a few time previously about how you play and enjoy various board games. What is your all time favourite and do you still play them in general? :D

Elizabeth L

Many a True Drinking Game Take one drink every time John says: Flip, genuinely or I like it Take 2 Drinks. Mentions Many A True Anything, be it Cat, Computer, Car or Claire (I believe he secretly calls her Many a True Girlfriend) Take 3 Drinks John deliberately kills someone he’s meant to be keeping alive or leaves them to their doom John eats human flesh at any point in his game. Finish your Drink. John asks us if we want this to be an ongoing series Gets surprised by a plot twist Fails to calculate his true health counter correctly Feel free to add to the list

Keith Thurston

I made you into a drinking game.

Keith Thurston

Oh also some discussion on generally how stuff's going for you would be great -- you said your plan originally was to see how the end of 2015 went, so since 2015 is over it'd be nice to know how viable you think continuing is (hopefully totally because the content lately has been amazing <3)

Zac Turner

Is it breaking the rules if I ask two questions? Because One: How is the many a true crew (especially Tabby)? And Two: What's it like recording? Like I mean is it odd not talking to

Sam-Elliot

Any plans for Xcom 2?

Calum Gaffney

Also, Fallout 1 and 2, I seem to recall you saying that you would do those games sometime this year. Do you have any special playthroughs of them?. Have a good day!

Lucas Anderson

Hi Jon, Claire and Many A True Cat! Will we ever get to see more democracy 3. Possibly as a video, or maybe a future livestream.

Lucas Anderson

What's the ratio of book ownership in your home ?

Samuel

For Claire: What have you found to be the hardest part about moving countries?

Anne Other

If (or when) do you ever plan to do a Kill Everything of Fallout 4? I'd love to see Diamond City fall under the power of the great Britant.

Jack

Would you ever do any mord of the real life videos with baking and stuff?

Jack

I don't recall on what video it was, but you once stated you had a rules set for a Skyrim run that you would like to do. You had commented that you would only want to do it on PC so you would not have to deal with the comments from people about running it off a console. So I am curious as to what the rule set was, and now that you have Many A True PC, will we be seeing it at any point.

Morgan Dellamore

Check out the baking videos.

Jack

I want to know why Claire forbids you from some of the kitchen appliances.

Garaba

I wish to know what kind of desert you and claire enjoy. Volumes can be told about a man concerning the type and flavor of desert he enjoys. What is yours?

Deric

My question is how do you find all these great games? What is the secret source? You keep putting videos up on all these great little games and I have no idea how you've found them and how much I'm missing out on

Zac Turner

Jon, how did you get the idea for your channel and Claire, what was your first reaction to the idea of starting a YouTube channel

Purple Disarray

Do you have any ideas for silly rulesets for fallout apart from your usual fare that you'd like to try at some point?
