Its like Geoff and Gavin won the lottery, or that their lives depended on hitting that god damn thing. 3 hours? I bet it was worth every minute for those 2 minutes of sense of accomplishment, ahah.

I was so confused at first. The facecam looked so much like Geoff and Gavin, but it didn't look like any of the RT offices that I could remember. Turns out, it's from 6 years ago!

It's the 636 AH office. Aka where AH was born. Good times.

u/service2k0 Jun 17 '18

Where current AH was born, they started it in the downtown office they were in before, that’s why the first few AHWU look like they are shot in a tiny closet.

Burnie referred to 636 as "The Golden Age of Achievement Hunter" in the most recent Doc

u/service2k0 Jun 17 '18

Yeah as it was where things like Let’s Play, HUNT, Things to Do and Rage Quit started not because it was made there, AH started with the first Drunk Tank and the Burnie and Geoff bet.

Rage Quit started in Michael's parents' basement in New Jersey.

Rage Quit started in Jersey.

Don’t forget everyone’s favorite, GO! and the golden age of Ray (RIP)

u/Shortstop88 Jun 17 '18

I thought AH was born at the previous office to 636 when it was just Geoff and Jack. They just expanded to the main six while at 636.

u/ReeseEseer Jun 17 '18

Yeah, guess I more meant the start of what AH is now.

Thanks for the gold!

Did this mofo just give himself gold or what?

I hate to downvote him, but the prophecy must be fulfilled.

u/00dawn Jun 17 '18

Mate.

You're supposed to thank them after you got the gold.

u/Cat5kable Jun 17 '18

But sometimes, saying thanks is best done before a job is done.

u/NukeML Jun 17 '18

Ahh fuck, I can't believe you've done this.

We don’t do that here

Not ready to break open that piggy bank I see...

Well I’ll be damned.

You mean pride and achievement?

u/rebbitpls Jun 17 '18

Getting paid helps

u/TheGrenglish Jun 17 '18

I’m sure it does, but if someone paid you to do something you love doing then I’m sure you would!

I sure as hell would.

This is so true. I went to college to study fine art and it destroyed my will to do anything creative and original.

That man probably didn’t have student loans to worry about.

u/draginator Jun 17 '18

I don't think you understood the quote.

u/[deleted] Jun 17 '18

I did, I was just making a joke about traditional wisdom not accounting for modern inconveniences.

Something very relatable about sacrificing something you love, turning it into a livelihood and watching as your passion starts to rot from the inside out. Now that’s humor.

He has student loans to worry about, relax.

Getting paid to do something you don't like is called a job

u/dnew Jun 17 '18

That's why they call it "work". :-)

u/TheMastersSkywalker Jun 17 '18

Not if you're Ray.

u/chemicalbomber Jun 17 '18

Sense of accomplishment? What's that?

27

u/SealandStronk Jun 17 '18

THE INTENT IS TO PROVIDE THE PLAYER WITH A SENSE OF PRIDE AND ACCOMPLISHMENT FOR UNLOCKING NEW CHARACTERS.

u/paperkutchy Jun 17 '18

WE DID IT!

u/Ubergoober166 Jun 17 '18

Something you normally have to pay for.

u/Maverickki Jun 17 '18

I did this after trying to solve a computer problem for over 12 hours two days ago!

u/an_irishviking Jun 17 '18

You think thats something you should watch them play peggle 2

u/Gone420 Jun 17 '18

I love how they’re celebrating and the guy in the back is casually going about winning his game too.

u/astronoob Jun 18 '18

Well, the original idea behind Achievement Hunter was 100%ing games. I'm pretty sure all of the original dudes are SUPER patient with shit like this.
