Achieve It Yourself! - Episode 6
Added 2019-07-04 18:00:02 +0000 UTCWell this was certainly a wild ride. With this final episode, the debut season of Achieve It Yourself! comes to an end. Through the process I've definitely learned what works and where to improve, and I think the patrons submitting achievements will have a better idea what plays out the best as well. Fun fact: we were originally going to do a Bayonetta 2 achievement in this episode but nobody had a save file deep enough. Even though I thought I had prepared more than enough, we actually burned through all of my backup games throughout the single day of shooting.
(This is just a weird thing I noticed, but that sentence has though, thought, and throughout in it and English is a heck of a language)
We have a couple of ideas for our next short-run series, but please keep giving us feedback on the kinds of things you'd like to see more of in the future.
Until next time,
Kyle

Amazing. The funniest thing I've seen in a long time.
2019-10-31 14:16:06 +0000 UTCI think the next season should be "Cheese it Yourself". It could even feature non-Nintendo games.

2019-07-18 17:08:43 +0000 UTCWhat a great series. Loved the intro, sound bits, atmosphere in the room and the idea itself. Save state scumming is life!
2019-07-17 06:08:19 +0000 UTCHAHA YES MORE PLEASE THIS WAS AWESOME EVEN THE MUSIC AND SOUND EFFECTS SO GOOD!

2019-07-07 03:38:37 +0000 UTCThis shit puts a giant smile on my face. I love it, hope it comes back!
2019-07-06 16:55:14 +0000 UTCMan... I'm gonna miss this show. Too pure for the darkest timeline.

2019-07-06 02:23:15 +0000 UTCAchieve it yourself was awesome, I hope there will be a second season. (But please make the episodes longer or cut out less.)

2019-07-06 00:22:33 +0000 UTCRyan, you are wrong on so many levels. This is my favorite exclusive show so far, and Bloodworth is awesome. Just rewatch the first episode when Blood was playing Yoshi.

2019-07-06 00:13:17 +0000 UTCWhen he said "achieve it yourself" at 5:10, I thought "Come on, Ian." And he didn't let me down. World class editing on this one

2019-07-05 19:08:57 +0000 UTCJeez Kyle! You should really warn us when you are going to have such filthy strats on your show. My child was in the room.
2019-07-05 18:34:33 +0000 UTCSometimes you just gotta save scum it. Great series, can't wait for the next one
Karl Williams
2019-07-05 14:05:59 +0000 UTCThis was probably my favorite of the Patron series so far, would love to see more of it!
Eric Mitchell
2019-07-05 12:55:34 +0000 UTCThis series should become a permanent segment of Friend Code. So good!
Darren Mifsud
2019-07-05 12:30:48 +0000 UTCI was quietly watching this in bed while my partner and baby are asleep. I had to turn off the episode half way through as it was too funny, causing me to laugh out loud. Great series.
Andrew Chalmers
2019-07-05 12:09:03 +0000 UTCI think this episode is a great indication of where the next exclusive show should go: Damiani's Cheesy Strats! This episode was a great finale! Good work fellas!

2019-07-05 09:08:49 +0000 UTCThe editing of this episode really cracked me up. Too bad yall didn't get to see how fast the crane moves on Hard. It is absolutely absurd. See people asking yall just to make this one of your main regular shows, and if yall did you have my word I'd nitpick it episode by episode less since it'd be extra regular workload on top of everything else. Seems doable if yall kept it quick and dirty like it is now from a filming and setup standpoint, but maybe an extra editing thing would be too much? Either way, this has been fun, and I hope it returns in some form eventually.

2019-07-05 07:32:34 +0000 UTCI absolutely loved this whole series. Everything is on point, performance, idea, editing, music, it's all perfect. I can't wait for season 2!
Kate Bishop
2019-07-05 06:48:19 +0000 UTCYou guys should 100% do season 2 asap and once that starts rolling out you should make season 1 available to everyone on YouTube.

2019-07-05 06:15:52 +0000 UTCThat was incredible.

2019-07-05 05:50:11 +0000 UTCBest exclusive show so far, but I also really enjoyed And for That Reason. Keep up the good work!

2019-07-05 05:31:07 +0000 UTCThat cheese felt so goooood!
Travis Miosi
2019-07-05 05:19:28 +0000 UTCDon't slouch on your original ideas if you got 'em, but I agree, Season 2 of this would be heaps fun. I also wouldn't mind if you expanded the premise to include all platforms, but all good if you don't want to do that.

2019-07-05 03:44:33 +0000 UTCThis is the best of the exclusive shows so far. More!
Keanu La'a
2019-07-05 03:34:47 +0000 UTCThis is my favourite Patreon exclusive show so far. It should become a regular show if possible. I would even like to see you guys to fan achievements for other consoles too! Especially SNES!
2019-07-05 03:22:15 +0000 UTCIm not sure I even understood what happened in this episode, and I have never laughed harder.
Jeffrey Tessar
2019-07-05 00:46:13 +0000 UTCPlease bring this back

2019-07-04 23:04:41 +0000 UTCThis series has been my favourite of the patreon exclusive shows, so far. I really hope it makes a comeback at some point.

2019-07-04 22:42:19 +0000 UTCGreat series guys. Loving these exclusive shorts. Hope there's a season 2 because I think you've got something here.
Diggles
2019-07-04 22:20:03 +0000 UTCJust binged episodes 2 through 6. This series is a lot of fun. I like the mixture of achievements that are "in game" and "out of game" like the overcooked and arms ones. I'd love to see more but not too soon.
2019-07-04 22:08:22 +0000 UTCThey don't need an additional editor for this, whoever is editing currently made an intentional choice to cut off soundbytes for humor.
Alec Church
2019-07-04 20:55:45 +0000 UTCThis has been my favorite patron exclusive series so far. It's so jolly. Hoping for season 2 soon!
2019-07-04 20:05:17 +0000 UTCI enjoyed this and would love to see a second series. But I would also love to see a second series of all the exclusive shows. And I can't wait to see what you guys come up with next. So basically, you just keep doing you and I'm sure I'll like it.
Asbo Zappruder
2019-07-04 19:52:40 +0000 UTCHoping for a season 2 and Editor of this series... you really need to let "Good for you!" play in it's entirety. It just too good of a line to cut any of it.
SoulCaster
2019-07-04 19:22:34 +0000 UTCThis is such a fun series! Damiani is a boss!
Robbert Roodzand
2019-07-04 19:18:58 +0000 UTCI'm gonna echo the other sentiments and say I also hope this becomes a mainstay series. These were an absolute joy to watch.
Chris H.
2019-07-04 19:09:46 +0000 UTCPlease... I BEG of you: make season 2 ASAP!!! This show is an ezaTen. <3

2019-07-04 18:59:42 +0000 UTCthe moment it clicked in Damiani's head was priceless lol.
Joseph Za
2019-07-04 18:31:51 +0000 UTCPlease make this a full time show! No offence to Damiani but I’d love if Friend Code morphed into this [Damiani is a great gamer and he’s come on leaps and bounds as a host] but do two podcasts need to exist? This is Nintendo Themed and the whole world wants Nintendo Achievements; it would be a SMASH on YouTube! Have Friend Code Special Guests and fellow Nintendo Alumni take part; it’s so much fun!

2019-07-04 18:28:51 +0000 UTCI have LOVED Achieve It Yourself. Great job, and thank you
John Price
2019-07-04 18:26:10 +0000 UTCIt can't end here. It's too good. As a patron I'm happy we get these exclusives but I think AIY is a great advertisement for EZA. I hope you'll consider putting them up on public YT at some point
2019-07-04 18:19:01 +0000 UTCThis was a great finale. We even had pro gamer Brad Ellis laughing and disapproving in the background. :)
