    • I always watch these while playing some good old TF2 when I don't have stuff to do, otherwise, I still enjoy these while doing my stuff xD Awesome guys, thanks for having Minx, can't wait until the next one!

    • i think people don't like women in revealing clothes in some videos, because it's either like if it's a girlfriend of your friend or it's just distracting and it's not what you came for, for this video.

      guys don't get any "easy ticket" on youtube, there are just a lot more guys making videos in general - that's why there are so many guys in the top lists (but it's a small % of all guys on youtube), if you'll consider %-wise the fact may be that girls have easier time getting more views, simply because there's less same-gender competition.

      getting free stuff for being a female is sexist :P

    • So... Another BroKen podcast :D I was really happy to see that Felix and Ken invited Minx to podcast. She seems to be nice, intelligent and happy woman. I've enjoyed her voice. Podcast was very interesting and i think that people are looking now for that kind of content. We learn something over here. Bros who watch podcasts live in different countries. Now people know that you can buy gun just for yourself in the USA or you can olny eat healthy food to loose some weight or you should have you own opinion and stick to it no matter what. BroKen podcast it's not only entertainment... It's knowledge also.

    • My diet is Chocolate Digestives!! Actually, it was, but I can't afford snacks atm :3 So basically atm, it's just grapes and orange juice for lunch

      About the girls showing off their boobs convo v_v Personally, I don't like it at all when they do it, I just feel like it's degrading. But you're right, no one can tell them to not do it since it's up to them, in the end they're probably just going to be recognised as the girl with the big boobs or something, and if they're fine with being recognised like that then fair enough.
      It's just annoying when they get annoyed at you for pointing it out, like if you say "Oh you show your chest in your video to get more views" and then they deny it and make up some sort of excuse like "I want to wear clothes I'm comfortable in" or whatnot when really we know the truth. They can wear what they want if it's comfortable, but that doesn't mean they need to direct the camera downwards at their cleavage. It's obvious it's for views.
      Long story short, it's such an evil scheme too many females take advantage of to get recognition, that it's got to the point to not bother with them if you don't like it, just let them be and move on with your lives.

      Yeah, I had my MMO when I was younger too... Good old RS XD Spent way too much time on that during my childhood, recently got my 10 year cape on it :3 And I've nearly been a member non-stop for 10 years too ._.

      I don't really see games as sexist, seeing girls in like showy clothes seem normal these days XD I agree with what Minx said, I would usually choose to be a female in games if I get the choice, but if it's story driven, I don't really care. The character usually help makes the game, and as long as the game is brilliant, I love it even if it's a male or female lead ;D

      Awesome podcast as usual though I usually want to do something else whilst listening to them, but I never can and end up watching the video as well XD No idea who the next special guest can be :o Either JackSepticEye or Markiplier plz?

    • Oh god, the SJWs! I could make a whole rant on the stupidity of SJWs but I usually save that for tumblr where most of them hang out and will see it xD It's just their complete hypocrisy, oversensitivity, literal ignorance and how America-centric they are. If they got their way it would be a really crappy intolerant world, they segregate people according to race, gender and sexuality far more than the majority of people in the real world, and take so much out of context I think because they just don't have the comprehension skills to understand a complete sentence. Funnily I've got into arguments with them over Pewdiepie before because they say things like "all he does is make rape jokes!" I ask them to find me ONE piece of video evidence of this since the apology he made, two years ago now, of course they can't so they just go silent or try changing the subject or resort to "shut up you literal garbage go kill yourself!" lol, laughable. But anyway... Yeah I'll save my SJW-poking for tumblr xD Basically, ignore them. They're never happy anyway, they just find smaller and smaller things to get offended over.

      If I get a choice I do prefer to play a female character (I'm a guy). I think it's because I'm just sick of seeing guys everywhere, and thing I do like are strong kickass female characters, like if I'm given the chance to create my own in things like Phantasy Star, Saints Row, etc, I make them as cute looking as possible with ribbons and bows but they are strong and lethal!

      But if a game has no choice it's fine - usually - because the characters (male, female, androgynous alien) is ME, I project myself or my own story into the character and they become what I want them to be, in my head, anyway. So I can kind of overlook how they look. Although one thing kinf of interesting that I notice is that I do play differently between male/female characters. In games where play style is my own choice and not story driven, when I'm female I'm more calculated and ruthless. whereas male is all about the randomly destructive chaos.

      Also I can completely understand Ken not liking to go out particularly into crowded places, especially if there's some sort of social anxiety there. If you don't like crowds it's just not even fun to go out, so it kind of defeats the purpose of "go out and have a great time", because that just won't happen. So it's best to stick to less crowded activities outside, or go somewhere in nature, to avoid becoming a complete recluse :)

      But anyway, I waffled on xD It was a great podcast. I really do love these! Thanks Pewds & Ken for doing them :)
