He lost his poo poo when YouTube did that Content ID sweep about a year ago. I expect him to keep yelling and crying about YouTube and people on all forms of social media.

That's sort of his gimmick, though. Like, if he didn't get upset about everything then he wouldn't be living up to his name.

He's yet another person who's success puzzles me as his videos are kind of terrible and broach anti-entertainment at times.

He has range, though; he isn't always angry. Sometimes he's whiny. Salty. This video's got it all!!! It was posted earlier in the thread, but I highly recommend you watch it if you haven't seen it yet:

I couldn't make it through the whole thing, I just kept staring at the weird facial hair combo he has going on with the thin upper lip hair and then the hint of a neckbeard thing.

That whole situation was one trainwreck after another for Joe. It was pretty great to hear him make excuse after excuse and blame Georff. I think his beef with him still stands.

I thought his review for Warband: Napoleonic Wars was good, even liking the acted bits in costume. It wasn't really an "angry review" as he was rather joyed to be reviewing a fun historical multiplayer DLC expansion.

But then that's really all I've ever seen. In the recommended videos on the side there's always that review of Soul Calibur V he did where the thumbnail has him looking rather upset at Ivy's breasts. That alone was enough to make me not watch anymore of his videos.

I think it's the difference between fans giving themselves a name versus the creator(s) assigning their fans a name. It's like how nobody can ever really give themselves a nickname.

Is that a "thing" for multiple Internet people? All I can recall off the top of my head is the Angry Army (which has alliteration going for it, which is nice, though it's no Barney Army).

Well, that makes sense, right? The first thing you're taught in school about publishing anything at all, is that you need to cater to your intended audience. This person just uses the term in a literal way.

It's different from a fanbase nickname, but the goon that did the recent Batman LPs called viewers inmates. That was a nice touch.

e: Though that double doesn't count since this is the Outside-SA LP crap shoot thread.

I'm a fan of Dan. He doesn't do the "screaming with no editing" thing, so he's already pretty high up there for purely Youtube LPers in my book. But he's also genuinely funny and pretty much only plays what interests him instead of jumping on the bandwagons. Until he started having issues with the series (I think copyright?), he did Three Free Games Friday to give more publicity to free indie games.

I personally think his full LP of Bully: Scholarship Edition might be the best LP done of that game so far.

Same, both because I really like Bully as a game but also because I'm a huge fan of VIvaVizer's LP of Bully and want to see how this compares. Never heard of Nerd3 before (I haven't spent much time watching mainly youtube lpers.)

Cacophony-aside, this is the epitome of a stream that is kind of pointless. Like... granted, it's weird to just watch people play videogames online in the first place, but then you find some people you like watching, you kind of look past it, and this brings it right back. He seems, at least from the very beginning, painfully uninteresting. Like, why bother?
