Thread 725103090

At this point I'm convinced the ritualistic anger /v/ users have at silly eyecatching videos like these is largely performative much in the same way that Redditors get performatively angry at things like pineapple on pizza or comic sans

lil bro's y2b algo is cooked on god and fr

You can call me autistic all you want, but don't call me performative. I genuinely despise these videos

>>725103090 (OP)
I’m pretty sure this is targeted towards knuckle dragging retards in the third world, it hits different for an ESL

The 10 minute video length limit from old Youtube was a blessing in disguise, it stopped shit like pseud video essays and pointless challenge runs from being made.

>>725103384
Even this post feels performative. I don't feel any actual anger. Just a cry for (you)s

>>725103436
>he says as he himself cries for (you)s

>>725103434
just like sending a message through email instead of complete junk written on a whim, i stand my ground when i say gatekeeping is good

>>725103436
Nobody has any actual opinions in these threads. They go through their phone looking for a funny reaction image they haven't used in a while then reverse engineer a post from it.

Probably also screen cap it and post on their "4chan posts to deranged for reddit!" Accounts

>can you beat borderlands 2 without moving
>it's just a three second video of someone saying "no"
refreshing

>>725103090 (OP)
Four horsemen of YouTube that fucked over nerd culture:

Pewdiepie
Game theory
Death battle
Game grumps

At least these challenge videos seem to enjoy the games they play and want to squeeze more hours out of them.

>>725103090 (OP)
Its just a way to say playthough now with a catchier title
It is annoying that they play around like no shit the red9 is more than good enough to beat re4
What?

>>725104541
>Its just a way to say playthough
this
so many of these videos abandon the shit in the title before the halfway point. some of them start with 2 mins of "actually it's impossible so here's all the crutches i'm giving myself"

>>725103090 (OP)
>he keeps clicking on the shitty videos
just fix your algo broski

this has never happened

Nope.

Saar...

>>725103090 (OP)
then you didn't beat the game

>>725106350
To be honest, some games have parts where you must do X to succeed like shooting Sahelanthropus with minigun at the end of Hellbound in MGSV

>>725103152
Shitty clickbait should always be hated on.

Man I hate this type videos. people miss the point of SM64 A challenge

Why do you have to post a shit cartoon on /v/?
>I didn't
That is a lie.

>>725103384
Totally fair. They're only interesting and worth a watch if it's a totally abnormal method of play/weapon/skill etc. Those I like and will watch. You good, OP

You cocksuckers sure know a lot about these videos despite claiming to hate them.
Something tells me you secretly enjoy them and use these threads to stealthily discuss your faggot e-celebs.

>>725103090 (OP)
Probably because most Youtubers don't do that and they rely on cheesing the fuck out of the game

>>725111058
Anon these videos are always showing up on your feed even if you don't watch anything related to it. It's just youtube being ass as always.

>>725103090 (OP)
>can you beat Super Mario 64 without having a suicidal thought?

I completely despise the entire essence of
>faggot HOLDING A MICROPHONE in front of a green screen
And will never ever click it but it will be constantly shilled

>video game a retrospective!
>5 hours of them just playing the game, describing every fucking autistic button press and action they do while going in to tangents about how much of an emotional impact the game made on them when they where an emotional faggy tween.

Grant games is garbage and I wish his channel was gone.

>Can tou beat [GAME] without [ESSENTIAL MECHANIC]
>yfw it's ymfah vid

>>725103090 (OP)
>can you one shot everything in this video game?
>mod/hacks in a literal one shot build or weapon
For what reason?

Fuck people making arbitrary rules or getting triggered over random shit
What really matters is:
>Does the challenge make things interesting?
Good video
>Does the challenge not really change how the game is played
Lame and retarded shit

>>725116395
>>Does the challenge make things interesting?
>Good video
There's video of guy beating Fallout 4 with the "Prototype Railway Rifle" and there's only one chance to get it. Now the issue comes from it only doing one point of damage and only holding one shot in clip. It wasn't interesting.

Don't laugh but I love the
>professional artist/opera singer/music teacher reacts to video game music
videos

>>725103152
It's not performative, it actually annoys me. It's the low effort clickbait aspect that gets in my nerves. Something about low effort begging for attention is repulsive to me.

I also get a slight urge to murder someone whenever I see "who here 2025?" in the comment section. It escalates to a mild urge when I see some Redditor post "who here 2037?".

>>725114030
The Top Gear ones were great.

>>725103090 (OP)
>CAN YOU BEAT [GAME] USING ONLY [NOT A WEAPON]
>"No, but if we cheat..."
That's 90% of them.

>>725114030
I put his videos in the background and treat them like a playlist

>>725116395
>Does the challenge make things interesting?
The problem is that the challenge is almost always the same.
>Can you beat the game with a weapon/ability that does next to no damage?
It's always either
>"Yes, but it takes a much longer time."
>"No, because there's something early on that requires you to use something else."

>>725103090 (OP)
>Watch "can you beat [game] with [seemingly impossible restriction]
>They run into a brick wall five minutes into the video and have to break the restriction
>They just continue for another 25 minutes like the rest of the run hasn't been invalidated

>>725117805
this shit drives me up the fucking wall
>Well of course you can, if you cheat
>I didn't want to put out a 2 minute video, here's 45 minutes of me using exploits to get the result I wanted

Let me shill the greatest Elden Ring player of all time.

I genuinely wish I had access to this fucking guy's special brand of autism. I'm pretty sure he's stated that he's essentially unable to get tired of game she really enjoys no matter how many replays he does.

>>725116626
>>725117520
I would classify videos that are just "can I use this bad weapon" in the latter category. It's not changing how the game is played, it just makes it harder. There's no unique methods of play the challenge forces someone to do to make up for their restrictions, just generally playing the game in a more tedious way.

My favorite one I've seen pop up is 'Can you beat Fire Emblem Awakening with just Chrom and Robin' as if that isn't the easiest and simplest way to steamroll that retarded game.

You didn't beat the game if you beat the game

>>725119579
I remember seeing some "Playing Pokemon the way Nintendo wants you to" videos where they follow the Prima guides and I think I remember enjoing them

You beat the game if you didn't beat the game

>>725103090 (OP)
>can you beat F3 being followed by Mr. Burke
Shit's fuckin hilarious I love these dumb videos

>>725118976
He's playing Elden Ring the way pilots play flight sims. If he wasn't a streamer he could be a sniper or something.

>can you beat game without doing mechanic of the game
>5 minutes into video it ahows you can't beat it with out it
>video is 50 minutes long

>>725119758
Sun Tzu really was a wise man.

>can you beat shitty ass kart racer game with a garbage character
>you actually can't
>the video ends there with the dude admitting he can't do it
Honestly was a breath of fresh air.

>>725120242
Love that guy. He's great.

>>725120242
What video?

If you beat your games, they win.

There is no form of autism more pure than this

>Civ 5 is a perfectly balanced game with no exploits
>uses a gameplay mod and modded leader
The last time I ever clicked on a Spiffing shit video

>can you beat [GAME] at level 1? (video uploaded in 2022)
>people have been beating [GAME] at level 1 since ~2010 when the game was first released

>>725121143
Well, yeah, but it isnt level 17, now is it?

>>725103434
Tangently related. I miss Vine. The tiny video length limit actually forced normies to be funny.

>>725121143
And they usually end up cheesing the shit out of the game anyway which invalidates the challenge it is supposed to pose.

Are there any good gaming channels left? All content looks the same these days. Youtube has become so sterile.

>>725121061
God i hate that pretentious faggot so much.
