Seriously, Dan???
This video was filmed a couple weeks ago, and PGO had the delay release in the UK, so he's had far less time to play than the rest of us. I've been playing since the day it was released and play constantly and I'm only at level 19 (halfway to 20).
He's level 20 in the video (And now he's saying he's level 24???). I regularly walk 3-4 miles when I play so...for a guy with a full career, prepping for tour, a supposed fear of society and the outdoors, and pneumonia, his level is suspicious.
No, this was definitely filmed after the first one. Dan's wearing different clothes and Phil purposely decided to wear the same outfitHauntedEmma wrote:About their new gaming video, wasn't this video taken the same time as the first one? They wear the same clothes.
At the bench part I was I try my best to not get excited at simple things like that, because it's really nothing to be excited over imo, but sometimes I just let myself rejoice over two grown men sitting close to each other so they can get into frameAmiaw wrote:Liked this vid- the first one was better but there were some good moments. How close were they sitting when they were filming that gym battle?
Also, I really want to know what Phil did to irritate Dan so much when he yelled at him...
And loved Phil chasing the squirrel
(Also, what part where Dan yelled at Phil?)You only get 50xp per pokestop and, for example, it takes 25000xp to get from lvl 19 to lvl 20. So he's doing more than just pokestop drivebys.confusedpanda wrote:Cora wrote:I'll type out a more extensive review later but...

He said this about that, what a cheater.
Pokemon go video was great and adorable as expected! Too many good parts to just pick one.
Due to his incredulity at Phil choosing to not put any money into the game, I'm gonna guess he bought some lucky eggs to double his XP and then did a few mass evolution sprees. As each evolution is a few hundred XP plus the 2x bonus from the lucky egg, I've personally found it to be the quickest way to level up.Cora wrote:You only get 50xp per pokestop and, for example, it takes 25000xp to get from lvl 19 to lvl 20.

You beat me to it: 100% this. But then again, I'm at level 24 & I haven't spent a penny. I'm just lucky to work next to a few stations that people love to lure... so I just sit at my desk & catch 'cause what else I am supposed to do at work?Reizam wrote:Due to his incredulity at Phil choosing to not put any money into the game, I'm gonna guess he bought some lucky eggs to double his XP and then did a few mass evolution sprees.

Okay this is the second joke Dan has made about consent in recent videos and it really bothers me. I know it's most likely not his intention to hurt anyone or make a joke out of consent, but it seems to be something he doesn't mind throwing out there in a comical way, and it's really bothering me. The last time this came up it bothered me but I didn't say anything, now though twice in a short period of time...Dan, it's not cool to make a joke out of consent. Consent is a serious thing that a lot of people don't understand and making it a joke is not helping.HauntedEmma wrote: Also when they talk about the Pokemon Phil caught on his bed at the start, Dan talks about consent. Do you think this is just him joking or is he subtly mentioning the twerk incident last year with Glozell?

Gah. Sorry everyone. I just had to get that off my chest. Please don't take it as me attacking Dan, like I said I know it's probably not his intention but it comes off that way and I want to know if anyone agrees with me.
"I didn't give you consent to touch my joey" and "Squirtle, consent" aren't very serious in my opinion. He's not literally saying "remember kids, consent is important!" He's throwing the word consent around in silly scenarios. I definitely think he's joking around, I don't see either of those uses of the word "consent" to be serious. Please explain how it seems serious to you? I'd love to have a different viewpoint shared because I'd love to stop feeling this way about Dan's use of the word "consent."spaceguitar wrote:I've definitely noticed Dan mentioning consent a lot and I've got to say that I dont think he is joking/ mocking the concept. I think he's actually emphasizing the importance of consent. Idk why he's taken to doing this so much, but I think it's a positive effort rather than negative. Weirdly I find it kind of annoying and cringey and very mom-esque
It's not serious per say but he is emphasizing that consent should be a part of the situation. Idk how else to explain iteevee wrote:"I didn't give you consent to touch my joey" and "Squirtle, consent" aren't very serious in my opinion.

Does this mean they're not planning of filming in Australia? Wouldn't surprise me tbh but I still hope they do.bluebox-away wrote:The leggings will return
You can see that even on the ride to the park, he's got both a Lucky Egg and an Incense activated. So if he's consantly buying those, it's not weird that he'd be level 20, though it still must have taken work.jess wrote:You beat me to it: 100% this.

I missed the nail polish discussion again, but to eevee & ickle, since ya'll brought up some good points. If it comes back 'round again, I might feel compelled to unleash some opinions.
