>I talk fast in a British voice!
>Therefore, my opinions on video games are correct!

just so you know, we Brits find the fetishisation of our accent(s) extremely cringe too

>>719895815 (OP)
This dude cursed us with a decade of padding because he didn't like paying $50 for seven or eight hours of a tightly well paced game that knew when to stop

>>719895815 (OP)
you are about 15 years too late to make this thread

>>719895815 (OP)
Bong accents are the affirmative action of accents

>>719895815 (OP)
I think it's really based he made a career out of making the same 5 minute videos with the smae puns week after week for well over a decade

>>719895815 (OP)
is his pity towards his colleagues the only thing keeping him from just doing his own personal channel/pateron? He’s the only one actually doing numbers

>>719895815 (OP)
Hate how for absolute ages no one was allowed to criticize this faggot here without his fanboys flying in to accuse you of being a fan of whatever game he happened to shit on that week

>>719895815 (OP)

Holy shit, how new are you? Welcome to 18 years ago.

>>719896392
>why yes i enjoy paying more for less

>>719895815 (OP)
And he was right every time.

>>719895815 (OP)
At least he plays a large variety of games. Gives him better perspective.

>>719895815 (OP)
I remember when The Escapist wanted him to condemn JK Rowling in his Hogwarts video and it felt very forced when he did

>>719897160
Knowing when too much is too much is a skill.

>>719897243
Even if the cunt says retarded things at times I am forced to respect he actually plays videogames, unlike most game reviewers

>>719896761
He's probably too lazy to manage his own industry connections or self-employed stuff and just prefers getting a wage paid to him and having someone else handle the emails.

>>719895815 (OP)
>and I also hate every game I play

>>719897292
it was a forced non issue anyways
>NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER COON COON SPIC

If it wasn't for him PC would still be a laughing stock
He pushes them into the master race when no one else would

>>719897451
I'd hate games too if I forced myself to play half the slop he did for content purposes

>>719895815 (OP)
The video about his new channel's tanking views was kind of amusing considering he's been allergic to playing anything anyone gives a shit about.
>>719896761
I have to imagine so. I don't think channels with multiple series are a good idea with the way the YouTube algorithm works, anyway. There's always the series that people tune in for, and the rest that just serve to tank your channel. Get fucking podcasts off your YouTube channel, no one wants to listen to you and your friends off-script.

>erm, as a brit
unless you're a megacorp villain, your opinion is discarded

>>719897451
>have to review AAA and mainly AAA
I’d suckstart a shotgun, had to subvert expectations with the Disco Elysium review being hidden within a Call Of Duty review because absolutely everyone knows how CoD plays since 2008

>>719897823
>have to review AAA and mainly AAA
why?

>>719896192
The premier and most prolific fetishist of English people’s accents is an English furry artist.

>"Guys our videos aren't getting as many views as usual!"
Maybe its because you make shit like this.

Anchor for the question “What is Yahtzee’s worst opinion on any video game?”

And for me, it’s gotta be him victimizing South Park: Snow Day via the neutrality is nazism argument.

>won't shut the fuck up about core gameplay loops
>puts 5 years into a game
>core gameplay loop is carrying boxes around
I thought he'd have more self-awareness, most of his 12 games in 12 months minigames had better core gameplay ideas than this

This is the sort of game that could maybe be carried by the art and context but it's the most barebones empty amateur bland space pixel art imaginable

>>719897491
>Master race

it's all brown people on decade old hardware

>>719898310
>decade old hardware
that still somehow runs games better than your consoles

>>719895815 (OP)
I'm not sure how I ever enjoyed his opinions. The other day, I was on a nostalgic trip and had a few of his videos liked from the early days. I watched them, and it's like nothing had ever changed. He's always been a faggot with retarded opinions on video games

>>719897567
Second Wind is such a fucking joke.
>you know what would help this channel?
>a bunch of clutter that makes being subscribed a nightmare
Nick is an idiot and their viewership tanking being le algorithms fault is cope

>>719898273
To add onto >>719898305, his autistic obsession with gameplay loops, it completely diminishes every other aspect of the game, when good art music story etc can carry even the most barebones gameplay, for example 3 hours with a classic JRPG is better quality time than any amount of time with Balatro (which he sucks off regularly)

>>719895815 (OP)
many such cases

>>719897938
Because that’s what gets the views?
Guys a awful critic that leans too hard into negativity but it’s nice at times, especially when everyone else in the “games journalism” industry is basically a AD company going
>this game is kinda ass 9/10 preorder now using this link

>>719896392
Wasn't his big praise of portal 1 that it didn't outstay its welcome?

>>719898472
Kek Nick contributes NOTHING to the channel except managing it, if it were only a couple of the core people then they wouldn't need managing, he created a problem for him to solve so he can stay employed and grift from actual creators

>>719898310
And yet Steam Deck can run FF Rebirth at 60fps while Switch 2 has to make do with FF Remake at 30fps kek

>>719898186
Did you watch the video?
He acknowledges that he's been doing the same shtick for almost two decades, but that the decline in viewership is much too fast to be natural

>Claims point and click adventure games are his favorite genre
>Thinks borderlands isn't unplayable trash

His taste is unsound.

>>719896392
And the funny thing is he started whining about games being too long and excessively praising indie depression slop.

I lost respect for him when he gave into peer pressure and reversed his stance on Souls

These days he even praises Nintendo because he's surrounded by soi boys, when he used to shit on them all the time

>>719895815 (OP)
Video games, faggot, VIDEO GAMES!

>>719898802
>reversed his stance on Souls
Seemed to me like he hated Demons' Souls, gave DS1 a fair chance and it clicked with him.

>>719898186
>watched both videos

>>719898881
He only did it because Gabe (I think) kept badgering him to get back into it, you can see it's performative because he didn't even beat ER and constantly forgets to talk about From games unless someone else brings them up

>>719899143
>He only did it because Gabe (I think) kept badgering him to get back into it
Source?

>>719898867
He plays more vidya than you, guaranteed.

>>719898867
Shut up you back seat loser

>>719898881
>>719899143
I remember when I first played a DS. A friend brought over a game his brother bought and at first we thought it was horrible because we kept dying and getting surprised by small ganks and traps.
But eventually we figured out how to build a character and it was very fun in general.
It's just funny to remember how we thought that game was hard when most people would say Demon's Souls is retardedly easy by today's standards.

>>719898670
>Don't change or adapt for two decades
>Surprised that your viewership is down the toilet

>>719895815 (OP)
Do Americans really find British accents that persuasive? They constantly talk about it like its some unfair advantage when every british person thinks other british people sound like mongs.

>>719899309
He made good points about Demons Souls' flaws that didn't become invalid in the meantime, everyone just started a cult around the series and you were either in or you were out

>>719899312
>>Surprised that your viewership is down the toilet
The whole point is that he had stable viewers for two decades
Then Youtube introduced some kind of AI change
Followed by his views tanking

>>719898867
theres no videogame discussion here, it’s all politics and bait.
I wanted to talk about Deadlock and trolls kept spamming about Trump until someone took the bait and the thread spiralled from there.
But there’s also nowhere else to talk about videogames online besides the most dead forums and private discords

>>719899321
If you talk in a confident and fast voice you can sell anything, people will believe you know what you're talking about

>>719899209
One of the Let's Drown Outs, can't remember which

>>719899542
Finance grifters love that btw.

>>719898305
Death Stranding is the actually good version of this

>>719898791
It's funny to see him do retro reviews of 90s/2000s games. He constantly rags on them for having poor graphics while lamenting that modern games prioritize beautiful/realistic graphics over deep gameplay.

>>719896192
Ironic how the most famous British accent is actually Scottish. Even in video games.

>>719899554
Yeah let me sift through 600 hours of content to see if your "can't remember" is true
faggot
