I don't either, I just copied the link. I'm able to see a couple of posts without actually signing up or being a member.

I saw it on Comodim Cam's Youtube channel first, which He (and I, and many others) thought was hilarious since this came out just 2 hours after he posted a video asking if any of the parties involved even cared because no news had come forth since the trailer a couple months ago.

Btw if this show turns out to not be complete garbage, I give everyone permission to point their fingers at me and mock my negativity. That said I highly doubt it can reach a level above 'its just okay'.

If it is competent, and enjoyable on any level (unlike Prime Wars). I'll call that a win.

Don’t go into it so negative then.

Prime Wars isn't exactly a high bar to clear Though given statistics and what not, Prime Wars must have its fans out there Not just in an ironic so-bad-it's-good way, but those who believe it to be genuinely good.

Then don’t watch it. Don’t give it the view it wants

As bad as the Prime Wars Trilogy was, many would argue that there was one thing enjoyable about it (at least for the first two series since the third one ruined this thing's enjoyability): Jason Marnocha's snarky Megatron.

"Still"? What'd they do with their other shows? (I haven't watched much of Rooster Teeth's stuff)

What haven’t they done? They canned a bunch of them, two of the founders Joel Hayman was let go and last week Burnie Burns resigned and left the company. They’ve been falling apart ever since they sold the company to full screen who in turn got sold and if now owned by time warner. There’s rumors they might be shut down and absorbed into Cartoon Network

You know Joel was like being an A-hole right? Him leaving was much needed even if he voices Caboose.

Burnie had a child recently and nobody stays at a company forever, neither does a company or anything stay around forever.

This is a bunch of negative misunderstanding of what's actually happening, RT is fine and their doing quite well.

Except that their stuff is perfectly fine.

RT isn't the main people working on the show anyways so that point is kinda moot, it's the same people who worked on Prime Wars overall.

How about wait until the show comes out one way or another? This world wide negative reaction to anything that hasn't come out yet is so exhausting, makes being part of fandoms legit mentally draining.

I think you'd like Cyberverse then.

I just hope this show gives him that same opportunity, though hopefully he doesn't carry this show by himself like he did the last trilogy

Sucks, but what can ya do, I guess.

I think its dumb that the show is seemingly locked behind dubbing? They can release it in whatever languages they have now and add more later. But its netflix, im hardly surprised. Theyve had season 1 of attack on titan on there since it came out and havnt added anything, let alone a dub. They like having all their eggs in one basket and its just a bad practice

They're stuff being fine is subjective to personal tastes.

But is saying something like "Ah it's from Rooster Teeth it's gonna suck" isn't helpful.

Same with spreading misinformation about what's been happening with RT, there is some changes happening but that doesn't mean RT is going downhill or something.

When's the last time anyone hasn't said something is going to be bad before release? That's like every reaction to almost everything in the last several years, can't think of anything Transformers related anyways since most people jump on the hate bandwagon.

Avengers: Endgame?

6am this morning, just before my first bowel movement for the day.

I'm just saying this fits the pattern established by Prime Wars, as well as general pattern of Netflix and RT to produce turds.

Could be worse:

Hasbro just hear me out

I think the worse thing about that image is that I recognise the characters

I match and raise

That animator's been busy.

Eh, the style itself is fine overall, but it most certainly doesn't fit Transformers if only because they don't look like they could Transform and look more like cosplayers then anything else.

Isn't that what they said about Transformers Animated...

To that I would say, they at least had distinct kibble in Animated.
