While at Gamescom 2013 we managed to track down the famous Jessica Nigri for a great long interview. It went fantastically well and we got to ask a ton of interesting questions, this was our defining moment in video interview… and then we found out that the mic wasn’t plugged in.
I’ve tried everything to clean up the background noise but we’re getting nowhere which left me crying in the corner all day yesterday.
I’m in two minds whether we should even post this at all but I don’t believe in hiding from your failures so here it is, our first A class interview and we screwed it up.
It won’t happen again.
The original mov file can be found here if you think you are an awesome audio person, it’s 250Mb though so don’t click that thinking it will just stream down.
I’m going to go drink myself into a coma again.

Sorry. I honestly didn’t hear a single word that was said. O.O
*edit* And it isn’t because of the sound quality…

There is audio?

September 4, 2013 at 12:22
Shame man, that can’t have been a nice thing to discover… You need to invest in a propper mic that they can attach to their shirts. Just cut Grant’s pay for a month to pay for it.
No Longer SIR Twakkus
September 4, 2013 at 12:28
I want to see grant try and put the mic on her collar…

Yes. Yes. That is something I would pay to see!

most interviewers that she gets start the interview by saying “let me just get this out of the way” and they stare for a few seconds, then start the interview

She just needs to dress up as Liara from Mass Effect…
Matthew Holliday
September 4, 2013 at 12:46
liara is out of the question.
not enough boobs, and boobs are her favorite things.
Admiral Chief Awesomenaut
September 4, 2013 at 12:51
What, Liara has a nice pair, not as sizeable as Samara, but still!
Matthew Holliday
September 4, 2013 at 12:53
Yeah, but Liara isnt about the boobs.
Liara is love.

Did you give her a lapdance? Tell me YOU GAVE HER A LAPDANCE!!!

She looks like a lekker chilled and fun person. Did you guys go and have a beer with her afterwards?
Mossel
September 4, 2013 at 13:48
Just look at that focus in the header. He has the concentration level of a panther. (I’m not really sure if that is good, but I like to think panthers are pretty focused and now what they want in life)
Jim Lenoir (Banana Jim)
September 4, 2013 at 14:13
The man has level 60 willpower. I think whenever Grant levels up, he dumps all his points into Charisma and Focus! Screw everything else. That’s why he’s a boss level awesome guy.
Mossel
September 4, 2013 at 14:21
Charisma and focus ftw! Wish I used some points for charisma and focus, alas I wasted it all on One-Handed.

Jim Lenoir (Banana Jim)
September 4, 2013 at 14:34
:/ Such a pity about the audio. It really sounds like Grant dazzled her by channelling his inner Riaan Cruywagen because she just wanted to spill the beans! I still think that our Sef Efriken accent is like music to the ears of foreign women.
PS: I think for next year, you guys need to invest in some clip-on microphones or even one of those broadcasting handheld ones.
Just picture it, a Massive LAGZ logo on a SABC-style handheld Microphone! It’ll be awesome!
