I didn't know that the dude that made Dink Smallwood is so cute and cool :D . He reminds me one of my acquaintances from high school times. Very similar dude. Sadly, he got eaten by a shitty supermarket job :/ . *sigh*
Neither of them is awkward.

I didn't realize LORD had graphics. I thought it was just a series of rooms. Am I thinking of something else?

A real mature CRPG that touches important issues like fire hazard precaution and domestic abuse.
Not a Matt Chat episode, but might be interesting. Matt's cRPG history from the very beginning.

Dink motherfuckin's Smallwood.
What a great bad game.
Just look at this:
Conan in tights, blood on a sword, explosions and everything.

Matt gets a bit passive aggressive about his lack of YouTube viewership: http://mattchat.us/?p=512
To be fair, it is mind blowing that his average viewcount is only around 2500. Really, with all those interviews with game developers, and retrospectives about classic games? When some dork with a shitty let's play can gather 10 times more? Fuck that! He really deserves more.
I don't think that the problem is with the videos, I think they are good material. Is there really such a low demand for videos about classic games and legendery developers?

Here's thing about Matt's videos, beyond their sheer nostalgic nerdiness:
1) They're very long.
2) He works as an archivist or a collector, not as a news reporter. Once he's done a series of interviews with somebody, he doesn't talk to them again if they're doing something new in their career, etc.
That limits his appeal even further.

I'm going to aim high and say Nolan Bushnell. Prob the only "household name" in game creation that isn't Japanese (Sid Meier is largely known by the general public for sticking his name on the product itself).
