Twas the live shows that sold me a patreon. Total bingedom

This behind the scenes video is so wonderful! I honestly think if more people saw it, they would sign up to support on Patreon. I don’t think all the people complaining about not having enough in-person Clocktower understand how much work and money really went into it. Entitled viewers assume content is easy, but this video could really help people understand the incredible production these in-person games were. Food for thought- consider putting this out in some form. Certainly if there’s another crowdfunding run for in-person BOTC, this video should definitely be part of selling it. If I wasn’t already a patron, I would be after seeing this!

Same here, just two days ago myself in fact. I kinda decided after watching close to 100 hours of NRB content, if not more that it was worth taking a punt at seeing what was on the Patreon. The UNCUT BGC games were nice but seeing stuff like this, the monthly BGC game and the other bits and bobs like this have ensured I haven't regretted handing over my money.

i only just became a patron and am catching up on all the videos and this is so amazing to see! behind the scenes is so fascinating! thankyou for making this!!

Daniel King

Smashing it folks!

Kyle B

So cool that Edd and Pepper were there in the background helping out. Steven is amazing. Really awesome video in general.

Heather Flower

patreon exclusive content is obviously great, but this video has so much heart and hype, really think everyone should see it xx

Austin Merfeld

I love that you guys basically hooked the sound guy on BotC

Micah Newby

Holy crap I'm not the only one who calls it that🤣

Micah Newby

The thing about that was, firstly that used to be a specific almost like a calling card back when her appearances were more rare, and secondly I posted that in real time when I saw her appear for the first time, before continuing the video and realizing she was actually everywhere in it 🤣

Mark Brett

I'll miss Unboxed. It was nice every once in a while to hear the crew talking "out of character," so to speak.

Kalesoup

Yeah! Teri has been on screen far more frequently than the musical mastermind Jamethan

Matt Clemson

Oooh, some exciting faces in there. Really excited to see how Ellen tackles Clocktower! It probably says a bit about how much Clocktower I've watched recently that I'm recognising some faces from various other places as well. (And now, putting two and two together, I think I might have made the link as to how we saw Mara Joy say hello briefly in an Oxventure live chat a couple of weeks back) Edit: I missed Jane! I'm a doofus.

Teri was all over the place in this. I was more impressed at getting a glimpse of James, who is far more omnipresent and elusive at the same time.

George cartright

The pole being gone doesn't bother me I like to kind of see have them spot kind of smaller lesser known games but the unboxed that bums me out I'd like to have in the podcast

Andrew Farmer

Losing the poll is fine. I just hope I leads to them playing games they want to play or show off. Last months carcassonne game was like nobody cared and didn't show the game off in a particularly good way which is a shame for such a classic

Andrew Farmer

Surely zombuul to celebrate zombie Jesus day?

Andrew Murphy

Shame about the podcast. I always enjoyed it...... Delighted about the poll going. Hopefully i'll never have to watch 6Nimt again 😬

Matthew Moses

Since the BGC poll is gone now, I wonder if they'll finally play Can't Stop LMAO

John Marnell

lol it would be funny if the BOTC coming out on Easter Sunday was an Atheist game

Dr. Judge, Private Eye

It was like catching a glimpse of a cryptid!

Michał Derdak

You gotta pump those numbers up, those are rookie numbers ;)

Craig H

Agreed. Really enjoyed getting to know the cast in such a way. Not as much a fan of the website written Q&A's.

David Cross

It might be a while until I catch up to this season being a Noob NeRB but I promise to watch as quickly as possible. I might even go two episodes at a time!

Micah Newby

A wild Teri was sighted at 1:41

Dr. Judge, Private Eye

Seconded! I think Wrestletalk Extra has benefitted greatly from being more structured and thematic, and I certainly wouldn't feel at all cheated or short-changed if the Patreon stream was picked by the staff.

Ian Sobolewski

I'm so in favor of getting rid of polls for the patreon board game clubs, you have no idea lol. It was a fun idea, but I love seeing niche or new stuff much better than the popular favorites

Ronnie Brown

I love this.

Clay M. Greenwood

Cool behind the scenes… I was really hoping for an interview with Olie, going over how he duffed it for the Evil Team in episode 1… Maybe he could do a Pipebomb about it, although a Steiner Maths would probably be better.

Richard DiDonato

This is awesome! Thanks everyone!

David

I would recommend maybe putting a post every quarter for member ideas for Patreon bgc games. It might even lead to you finding games you didn’t know about.

Dylan McCormick

Such a great bts video! I can’t wait for the new videos and loved the first episode of season 2! Maybe a few episodes of Are You Evil? with some of the new cast? (Lorna, Molly Rose, Tegan, Chris, Ivan)? Thanks for everything :)

Ryan & Molly

As an unneeded suggestion - I for one would love the occasional podcast in the original “Are You Evil?” format for new cast members as they join and others who have been here but never got an episode! I loved hearing a bit of everyone’s personal journeys through life and the unique perspectives they each brought. I’m particularly dying for an episode with Dan and one with Tegan. Not as a required monthly production from NRB, but just as a, “Hey, we had some time; here’s a special little treat to get to know this person better!”

Lee Dellbridge

How will they mess up the kingdom this month lol.

Lee Dellbridge

Thanks for the update! I've been calling for the end of the polls for a while. I'd much prefer to get new games in the rotation. Lorcana isn't my thing but it's most likely going to have Blair and Holly involved so I'll watch for that lol. As for the podcast I admit I haven't listened to it in months simply for time reasons but I assumed it would have had enough questions from discord like the Are You Evil? series did.

Rob Jasper

Really appreciate the update, and loved the BOTC episode. Continue being the best 👍

Rosa Hübenskjold

This was so lovely, thanks for sharing part of the process with us all! Will there be a "Noises from the Night" for this season?

Buff_Tucker

Loved every second of it. Also, thanks for the update. <3

Andrew Farmer

Thanks for the update. Good communication is a massive bonus.

Kerishma 'Keri'

On board with all the changes and SUPER excited for all the new content!!! I have one teeny tiny request- would you tell us why you chose a particular game every week? Would love to know the BTS on game selection e.g this is Teri's fav game, this is a new launch and we just really wanted to play it, we love the card art on this game etc.

Will Bates

I only have a few Patreons that I am able to support, and you guys are probably the best of them. A ton of content, great quality stuff, and making the effort to keep us updated on what's going on.

Sebastiaan T Robert

The game looked realy good, can't wait for next one.

MMilcz

I think you made the right choice regarding the polls, I’m always curious to see new games I’m unfamiliar with that rarely win

LostOddity

I really like the idea of the BGC being something the crew pick themselves instead of the poll. I know I've heard people talk about liking games that have been on those polls and not won. Making it, "this month Blair picked a game for us" sounds good to me. Plus it would make it a surprise, and who doesn’t like a surprise? Would taking Unboxed from behind the paywall make it a viable product? I'd have no problem with it no longer being a Patreon exclusive if it made it make more sense from a business perspective.

Jack Quy

It's gonna be a cracking Easter Weekend with all this NRB content! Plus I'm going to see Grubby Little Mitts in Cambridge on Saturday

Daniel Mumby

You took the words right out of my mouth

Scott Peaden

Sad to see the unboxed pod go. But excited for the content! Keep up the great work!

Jay ❕they-them❕

Thank you so much for the making off! That’s so fun and interesting, I’ve been wondering how it’s done and who makes what this entire time! I absolutely love this show and I can’t wait for the next episodes 🥰
