Achieve It Yourself - Episode 2
Added 2019-05-30 18:01:00 +0000 UTCLast week's response to Achieve It Yourself was surprisingly encouraging, so thanks for all the comments and support you've given us. Earlier this week Brad and I were talking about Ep 1, and he said "We never post anything that has this percentage of people who are happy" and honestly yeah that's pretty rare. We unfortunately can't reliably replicate the suspense of Bloodworth hover jumping inches above failure on his final run, so I'm curious what you think about this episode as well.
Episode 3 will be right here same time next week, 11am PT.
Until then,
Kyle

Big fan of the "Nintendo doesn't think we need achievements." opening.

2019-07-10 19:16:12 +0000 UTC90% of my deaths in shovel knight were from trying to get my money bags back from a pitfall death. A lesson I never learned throughout the whole game, it's so hard but you gotta just ditch em sometimes. Watching Damiani jump right past them in the video hurt my soul.

2019-06-04 17:56:29 +0000 UTCEveryone is getting mad at Damiani for cheesing it but how are we supposed to trust that all he did was the combo while we couldn't see him! He could have done a smash attack for all we know! What was that lightning effect all about? huh?

2019-06-04 11:55:02 +0000 UTCDamiani would have 100% plats/achievements if Nintendo got in the game
2019-06-03 05:03:46 +0000 UTCDigging this show!
2019-06-02 20:04:10 +0000 UTCJe-SUS that intro gets me pumped EVERY TIME!!!!
2019-06-02 10:17:43 +0000 UTCThe first achievement each episode is supposed to be easy, like a warm up run.

2019-06-01 18:27:04 +0000 UTCthe "good for you" soundbite is just genius

2019-06-01 12:05:08 +0000 UTCMan, too bad season one's all locked in. There should be a forum section or a discord or something for achieve it yourself where you could post ideas and challenges

2019-05-31 19:31:40 +0000 UTCSubmissions for season 1 are all already locked in, but for any future seasons and for any other shows, there will be a specific post right here on Patreon

2019-05-31 19:09:14 +0000 UTCWhere do we submit ideas for achievements?
2019-05-31 18:17:25 +0000 UTCThat intro music!!! Hahaha 👌🔥🤘

2019-05-31 17:53:13 +0000 UTCThis would be much more work on yall's end, but I think the show would be more entertaining if you just cut out or tweaked any achievements that turned out too easy like the Mario Kart one. That wasn't exactly thrilling to watch, and if you didn't want that time to just be a waste you could quickly mention yall did that one effortlessly first try (which only took minutes) and move on to a different achievement or mention yall beat it 50CC effortlessly, so you show us trying the same concept with 150CC or such where it actually becomes a challenge. I'll watch the show regardless, and I'm not writing this as a complaint. I just think this would make for a more entertaining show in the long run as general feedback.

2019-05-31 09:44:08 +0000 UTCBrad's reaction to Kyle at the beginning haha
Andrew Chalmers
2019-05-31 05:49:54 +0000 UTCYou can cheese many official achievements. Damiani played smart!
2019-05-31 01:16:55 +0000 UTCThat was pure cheese from Damiani. Make him do it again with the restriction of KO by stamina depletion instead of ring out.
TurboChickenMan
2019-05-31 01:12:03 +0000 UTCI had a list of backup achievements for scenarios where our main achievement gets cleared easily, and for the backups I was less strict about pre-existing achievements
Easy Allies
2019-05-30 21:19:12 +0000 UTCGood episode, though I'm surprised you were accepting achievements for cross-platform games that have them elsewhere.

2019-05-30 20:43:20 +0000 UTCThat Toad sound clip kills me. Loving the show so far. L & R!
2019-05-30 20:41:23 +0000 UTCGood call adding the third achievement based on time.
Matt Brookbank
2019-05-30 20:30:51 +0000 UTCLast to First, not First to Last with the achievement?
2019-05-30 20:19:36 +0000 UTCThis show is so good because of 2 things: it's short and edited + it has gaming. Somehow most of your other shows don't have these 2 ingredients.

2019-05-30 19:59:33 +0000 UTCLove this show!
2019-05-30 19:37:44 +0000 UTCMe and my friend do the last to first thing all the time, we call it the overlap challenge. Tho we usually try to let all the racers pass us

2019-05-30 19:28:39 +0000 UTCI know you're in a saturated market, but you guys are chronically hard on yourselves, Kyle. This and all the shows that lean on the genuine friendships and personalities of the Allies are reliably amazing, just to see sincere and meaningful relationships on display in 2019 is a rarity. I know, I'm biased, but I hope you aren't anxiously pressing forward without getting the chance to be joyful at all the great stuff you're giving us.

2019-05-30 19:17:40 +0000 UTCYou can just spread the word about how much you like it on Twitter, etc. Thanks! -Bloodworth

2019-05-30 18:50:19 +0000 UTCThis was an absolute delight.
Kate Bishop
2019-05-30 18:44:04 +0000 UTCYeah, hard to follow that Yoshi run but I love the Damiani cheese strats in this video.
STAMPEDE
2019-05-30 18:43:38 +0000 UTCDamiani the drama killer, haha. Too pro! Nah, still a really fun episode!
Samuel Cardwell
2019-05-30 18:26:35 +0000 UTCThanks Kyle! Love it! Gave it a thumbs up on YouTube. Where else do you and the other Allies check in order to evaluate the success of a video? L&R
2019-05-30 18:17:12 +0000 UTCWhat’s the tier to get Damiani some pants?

2019-05-30 18:13:12 +0000 UTCThis is beauty.

2019-05-30 18:07:35 +0000 UTCYay!! This show is honestly some of your best work!! Keep it up allies!
