It’s hard to describe just how funny these videos are, but I have definitely cried from laughing on several occasions. In their Monster Factory web series, brothers Justin and Griffin McElroy (co-founders of the gaming and culture website Polygon) ask the question: just how ridiculous can we make a character look without breaking the game? The McElroy brothers are hilarious in all their endeavors-which include several podcasts, a TV show, and many other videos they did during their time at Polygon-but Monster Factory is by far my favorite series. This week’s entries come from: Ali Sciarabba, Caemeron Crain, Carol Seeds, Martin Hearn, and John Bernardy.Īli: There are a lot of video games that have character creation tools, some of which are incredibly extensive. They won’t always be new to the world, but they’ll be new to us, or we hope new to you. Each week a rotating cast of writers will offer their recommendations based on things they have discovered. But have no fear! We’re here to help you do that thing I just described with three different metaphors. In our internet age, there is so much out there to think about watching, reading, listening to, etc., that it can be hard to separate the wheat from the chaff, filter out the noise, or find those diamonds in the rough. Welcome to What’s the Buzz, 25YL’s feature where members of our staff provide you with recommendations on a weekly basis.
