This is like watching youtube's algorithm in real time

whenever jack apologizes for not talking to us during games like this I'm usually too focused on the game to even notice like oh no it's fine im reallly invested in the game too

Didn’t even notice that Sean wasn’t talking I was so focused on him editing.

"I'm gonna get a raise after this job" as someone who does this job irl, no you won't. Shit doesn't pay peanuts.

I love this game. It goes from "dreary, british daytime television" to "darkly tongue in cheek totalitarian nightmare" in the blink of an eye

The dialogue in this game is absolute genius. "After serving three years for aggravated assault, burglary and menacing a swan"

I completely forgot that this was just a game after the first level

"theres no such thing as multi-tasking" Jack: "Hold my Top of the Morning Coffee, brought to you by Jacksepticeye"

When jacks like: “Sorry I’m not talking I’m just concentrating.” Me: “...I’m just sat here, knitting, watching some news and some amazing theatre, don’t be sorry.”

13:47 Jack: "someone out there is doing this right now" *Robin editing the video*

I hope Jack makes a part 3 eventually. This game is so amazing with all the twists and turns paired with humor.

Bob not wearing proper pants for the video call is just the entire quarantine mood.

Jack: “I get to control what you, the public eye, sees” Me: you already do

Tips for you, Jack: 1) When the advert is playing, as soon as you get the feed you should switch over. That way, once the advert is done, the video automatically comes in and you always have a perfectly timed entrance. 2)You should use your scroll wheel to dodge interference as well as using your spacebar for censoring to leave your pointer open for other interactions. These are both tips that are given in-game but, I know that you sometimes miss things due to focusing on recording and entertaining, so I figured I'd drop them here for you, to help make gameplay less stressful.

I like how the former operator just flees the country, but cares enough about you to still walk you through it lol

this game makes me so happy, when I was in 8th grade through high school, I was a video director at my church. It was much similar to this exact game but I had to talk on a com system and tell the cameras what to shoot while switching between shots, it was a highly stressful environment seeing as there was a live audience of about thousands of people, nevertheless I always got such a thrill and joy when I would successfully direct my way through a service. Although, no one watching the service is probably thinking about the video director behind the scenes, I felt good in making sure that it was entertaining and interesting for everyone that watched. I appreciate the game makers for creating a similar experience so that others can know the joy of running the show. Pressure is hard, but the payoff is totally worth it. :D

The person who does this job for Gordon Ramsey must have their finger dislocated

Literally everytime Sean says "Sorry, I forget I need to talk to you guys too" Me: "Forget about us, just focus on making this broadcast the smoothest fucking broadcast your lucky eyes have ever bloody seeeeeeeeeeeeeeenn"

honestly thought this was gonna be legit reacts to news bloopers but i'm glad iw as wrong. this is brilliant and with Sean even more amazing. keep these coming. absolutely brilliant

As someone who took a class where I have to switch between broadcasted cameras, and all this screen delay and whatnot, other than how it looks, the whole tape thing and the whole interference thing, it's pretty realistic, just overly simplified.

11:43 Why isnt anyone talking about Sean appearing on Screen 3 on the left

Jack: *censors curse words* Everyone: welp, that's ironic

*FOR THE LOVE OF GOD WHY DID JACK STOP PLAYING THIS GAME???*

I love how the third screen shows Jack at 11:44

Jack: Sorry i'm forgetting i'm actually recordi... Me: Shush i'm watching the news

Jack: I want to watch the advert Jack: doesn’t watch the advert The advert: I hope your parents don’t die in a fire

"I would actually watch this" Sean 10 minutes later: "I don't want to watch this, I don't like watching my work"

I am an editor for my high school's news network and this reminds me of having to watch my timeing on multicam and keep audio and 1 camera while still using close up mics without a step in volume

"I have the attention span of a wooden table" Literally me during online college classes-

40:33 Look, when our daughter Alice comes home with an A minus, does she go on a killing spree? *No!* She takes three of her pills and hides under the stairs *like a normal child*

I actually used to work as a master control operator. It was pretty fun, except for the time that the host of the show and the producer are going at it dropping F bombs left and right as I'm sitting there going "3...2...1..."

Jack: "I would watch this!" Also jack when he gets a chance to watch it: "I don't want to watch this."

Sean: "I AINT NO SNITCH!" Sean 7 minutes later: "Isn't that illegal?"

This is literally, the only time I paused a video, looked in the desc, clicked the game link, bought it, downloaded it, played through it all, and came back. This game is amazing.

26:03 It's not that he's just losing money, he lost his passport as well along with an half of the country's.

I do this as a job and can confirm that this is true except for the flappy bird connection thing

How it feels to have ADHD: “I have the attention span of a wooden table.”

Yes, as a director for a TV station, that’s almost exactly what it is. The tech is surprisingly accurate, yet older ways of doing it.

If I ran one of these studios it would be "hello welcome to bleep bleep bleep bleep" your welcome viewers.

Sean: I'll be the nice guy. Also Sean: Proceeds to boast about himself and his achievements and 1 ups everyone

Hey Jack, as someone who's been in broadcast rooms, this is exactly (for the most part) what it's like. I'm glad to see someone made the effort to show how hard it all is. Sincerely, a Strategic Communications Major.

11:44 the 3rd screen is showing one of Jack’s lets plays-

God, the instructions of this game were giving ME anxiety, and I wasn’t even playing!

This is very accurate to a news room setup, I remember running announcements at school, and at a media center as an extracurricular, and it was always a bit stressful and very dependent on timing.

9:44 Jack: Her reactions are so good! *doesn’t switch to a reaction shot*

35:07 reminds me of Alex Jones “They’re putting chemicals in the water turning the frogs gay!!!”

I read somewhere the banner falling at the very end of Hey Friendship was actually a cue for the film crew that the director was happy with the take. You can see the cast's mood change when it drops. it's also very in keeping with such a cheap and amateurish production you'd expect from a school play like that.

I clicked on this video thinking it was gonna be Seán reacting to actual news bloopers that happened in real life. That’s not what I got and I’m not disappointed in the slightest.

Holy moly, I wasn't even the one playing the game and I felt stressed

Jack: "I'm great at censoring." KZfaq: "Amazing, every word of what you just said was wrong

I went to college for television production for a couple years (decided it wasn't for me and didn't graduate) and I can say this game brought back the excitement and spark I felt when working in a real studio. although there is allot of things wrong about how a studio operates in this game I had so much fun playing this.

"I suck at this." ~2 seconds later~ "I am so good. I am amazing at this."

As someone who's had some experience watching a live edit take place for a live TV show, this is exactly how it happens, only around 10 times more complicated due to that many camera angles and graphical inserts. There's usually a step after the master screen where a graphic designer puts in the graphical inserts before the broadcast output. So it's even more complex than you'd think.

Séan “I’m terrible at this!!” 2 seconds later Séan”I’m amazing at this!!”

Dude I really hope Sean plays the full game, it's amazing

Yes this is what it’s like doing news live! I used to do this all the time! Once lightning struck the building we were going live from and somehow the news just kept running, only thing different was you could hear me scream from the recording closet over the host’s microphone 😅

Is no one gonna talk about the end credits that play before the news show? "Cody is a silly name" "Mr steven's ass double as himself" "Ringo A Waterballoon with a face drawn on it"

I absolutely love when sean acts out the reading with like different voices and stuff i feel like i’m watching a movie and it makes the game more interesting

I went to school for film and TV, and actually did this for a couple of years. Shit's hard. Constantly said "yup" to the TV every time he asked something about how it worked. And a BIG YUP every time he got stressed. Great job, Sean!

11:43, the third screen had Jack on it

Jack: "I'm so focus on the game" Also Jack: * Buy random toy because he didn't know that the shop have different tabs even though, the guy is explaining it to him *

I was a new media major in college and studied tv production. being an operator is sooo stressful but the most fun thing in the world

Me: "Wait, did the developers add one of sean's let's plays into the game as an easter egg?" *rewinds and squints* "F*ck you Robin- you're a clever bastard but f*ck you!" 🤣

As someone who studied television in college, I got the chance to direct live shows like this. It can be stressful, but it is equally as fun. It's pretty much just like this in real life... Except, you get the chance to rehearse. Lol loved this game. Edit: This does not all get done by one person, btw. You have a whole crew taking care of this stuff. The director calls for the person at the mixer board to go to different cameras, and will call for which specific camera to switch to. Another person is in charge of switching what audio is live, who runs the rushes and adverts, etc etc.

11:45 aayyy, that’s Jack recording subnautica

Im getting overwhelmed just watching this I could not imagine what itd be like to play this

I can confirm from experience, this game is scarily accurate, minus some technological advancements

These tabs over here- **wastes all money on toys** Never change.

11:44 He's playing subnautica on the bottom left screen.

Telephone guy clearly states that they are multiple tabs and then goes on explaining. impatient Jack clicking without really checking everything "imma gonna just buy this two" Classic Jack.

11:43 Screen 3 switches to Jack's Subnautica gameplay. HOW DID I FIND THAT!

Voice: "Make sensible decisions! Don't be like Dave..." Jack: *spends money on toys instead of listening* Me: gee, I hope Dave didn't waste his money on toys...

45:00 Remember Steve's wise words: "Maths is really important!" (also, can you make this a series? It was so much fun! :)

I went to college for news and publicity and I sat at the broadcasting car. There were 15+ cameras with each individual camera operators, tons of people working on the sounds and colour and one director talking to each and every single camera operator and leading his men to switch from camera to camera while having the actual script in his hands (it was orchestra broadcast) my head was blowing from only watching them

In fact, it's really so much more stressful than this, BUT, this is pretty bloody good.

Coming soon "The Jack News Network" featuring daily news, sports and weather but all shouted loudly in an Irish accent.

I haven't laughed this hard in ages (and as we all know having a little LAUGH is good for driving the sadness away). The amount of work they must have put on making all of the segments, interviews and commercials - oh wow, I'm definitely buying this game! Please oh please make a series out of this game, I love this!

The part where the officer was talking about morale decay while he had a gimp behind him was hilarious.

This is giving me flashbacks to the time I worked as a Live Captioner. That is the job of the person/people who caption events like the news by literally repeating what the people are saying into a microphone, as they say it, and punctuating it all live. Every time I was assigned a gig, I would get cold sweats from anxiety leading up to the literal countdown moment before things got started. Most stressful job ever, I swear.

This is honestly one of the most gripping games I've seen. It mixes the elements of management really well with the underlying story, and I like how the game doesn't force the "THE AUDIENCE ARE PUPPETS" ideology down your throat. Instead it's "Hey, erm,just be careful because, if you show a certain image,the audience will think of them in that light."

Jack: "I am the one who is going to determine what you get to see." Well, technically that's Robin's task

Because I watched this, youtube recommended actual bloopers in the news. Thanks for that. They are really good.

Jack: **does the old slap intro** Me: My Life is now perfect

11:44 on screen 3 hes playing subnautica

Jack: has to censor swearing Also Jack: *swears* Thank you for the likes ❤️

I love how it keeps everything gender neutral.

I cant tell you how much I love Jeremy

11:43 anyone else catch that shot of Jack playing Subnacious on the third small screen? My anti-senses are tingling!

--11:43 Ok robin, we see camera 3, we get it. You are very good at your job. Now quit showing off and making the rest of us feel bad about our own inadequacies. xD

11:43 if you look at screen three you’ll see a clip of Subnautica

27:18 the shows credits before the news have the beatles names in it and says that Ringo is played by a waterballoon with a face on it

11:45 one of Jacks Subnautica recordings plays on the 3rd screen, good job robin

Jack: "I'm going to craft the worst narrative, I possibly can." Me: So basically you're just going to be the normal everyday news?

Oh my God the true origin of Dinkelbamp. From broadcast censor to Hunter to Elden Lord, Dinklebamp is the perfect man.

Sean reading french out loud is one of the most amazing thing ever (28:05)

"I'm a mathematician and she's a paraplegic mainly" _coughs up a lung laughing_

11:44 screen number 3 has Jacksepticeye playing subnautica. Thats creepy

As someone that has worked in news, this is absolutely hysterical.

I personally never felt like he talked too little, I was also focused on the game too

Game: You can buy upgrades, enhancements.... Jack: I want *toys*
