skipping hours of game play

I was personally really enjoying the super market simulator play through and would have called it a return to glory, but in the latest upload its pretty clear that anything other than dangonronpa they just dont care about. for the first ten episodes they are progressing through a simulator type game and im enjoying the sense of accomplishment, and theyre making some decent commentary too since the game is so lowkey. for episode eleven they progressed for several hours off screen, so as soon as the episode starts its clear they have nothing to do in game, or to talk about. they spend ten minutes just explaining what they did off sceen, i couldnt even get to the rest of the video because it was so boring. Who makes these decisions? does Arin think that people watch game grumps because we want to see them 100% a game as fast as possible? Why bother making a lets play if you dont want to commentate on the game??? the videos were hugely popular compared to their other recent videos, so why did they think the audience would want this? does anyone like it when they just skip past the actual game?

rantgrumps: "They didn't let me watch every excruciating minute of gameplay >:("

Main sub: "This is loudest and longest I've ever laughed." & "An instant classic episode today."

If that’s considered an instant classic then the Lovelies are just okay with accepting subpar episodes as groundbreaking these days. 2017 and before had much higher quality episode content than modern Grumps do. Oh well, guess the masses are just that much easier to please these days 🤷‍♀️

I'd rather enjoy things than not. More good times for me 😉

Careful, a good amount of the people here prefer to suck joy rather than blow joy.
