Annointed posted:Mr Enter really needed their media manager to keep them of twitter. And if this is their media manager approving this, or the media manager themselves, good grief. I... are you joking, or do you really believe that random youtubers have media managers?

If someone tried this with me, I'd call them a huge weirdo and would start sending them pings once a week, always claiming I'd "forgotten", that they don't want to get pinged. Of course I watched Mr. Enter's videos enough that the chance of me showing up in a Discord channel frequented by him is stable at zero.

(god I hate it when I find out one of these ghouls is canadian  )

I doubt the weirdo who is obsessed with making an animated series of himself has a media manager. Still, it's fascinating seeing a guy center his internet branding around being a screamy fedora-clad internet mad man in this day and age. It's like if a caveman was sealed in a block of ice in 2009, emerged just recently, and became outraged at how quickly we'd moved past 9/11 from his perspective.

When Youtubers start making the big bucks on Patreon like Hbomberguy or the late Lindsay Ellis then yeah I assume they have at least some kind of paid help, even if it's just a producer and a regular editor. At that dude's level I'd kinda be shocked if he can afford a freelance editor

Mr Enter very famously (for cartoon-tube circles at least) does indeed have staff because he's burned through a bunch of them being a weirdo who sucks to work with and now has I believe two different editors at least.

I can't tell which is sadder and more hilarious; that this Mr. Enter dude is doing an unironic Puppet Master defense, or that it's his managers are trying to cover for him by doing said defense.

Max takes a look at a Watchmojo top 20 fighting games list, because he feels it's a good barometer for what casual fighting game players might feel. his comments are interesting, and he doesn't(well, mostly doesn't) criticize the choices made. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PRU_VNmnmE0&hd=1 I love listening him talk about fighting game industry, history and culture stuff. honestly the most surprising pick on that list I thought was skullgirls being #5, but then again that's one of the few fighting games I've bought in the last couple decades since it sported a basically unheard of(at the time) in-depth tutorial and practice mode, and definitely helped me learn some tricks even if I didn't stick with it.

Max Wilco posted:The Bad Webcomics Wiki is still running, though I think some of the reviews lean more towards roasting bad comics rather than in-depth analysis (reviews are done by different authors, so it varies based on what you're reading about). The problem with bad webcomics discussion in general is that there's a large contingent of people who are loving obsessed with how much they hate various webcomics, and only want the discussion to be about how bad the art/writing are, and how gross the fetishes are, and how terrible the creators must be because of those two things, and it has to be those three things, repeated like a Koyaanisqatsi of contempt. Which like, yeah, the comics generally aren't good, but they're overall just middle-of-the-road nerd poo poo outsider art. At worst there's just some gross poo poo, generally because these were made by people of the 2000s, when it was considered good and cool to be as offensive as possible for some reason. Anyway it'd be cool to see a video series about old webcomics, just because they had their own fascinating quirks and tropes, and it's a neat look into a bunch of nerds' ids. (My favorite recurring trope is how so many started out as a slice of life comedy and then you skip to like page 500 and it's in outer space and people are dying and the main character has a cool gun or sword or swordgun. Just every time they run out of gag ideas, it turns into action madness.)

there's a difference between making fun of a bad internet thing because you find it fascinating and enjoy seeing what's at the bottom of internet rabbit holes versus making fun of a bad internet thing because you hate the person/people who made it and want to tear into them directly/have an excuse to harass people, and some of the bad webcomics people fell a little too hard into that latter category in the later years imo

Then Megatoyko got started doing serialized narrative storytelling, and everybody suddenly wanted to be Megatokyo. 20 years later, all the wannabe strips are dead and Penny Arcade is still being Penny Arcade, and Megatoyko is still, somehow, amazingly, regrettably, Megatokyo. (It was not specifically Megatokyo that inspired people to make the genre jump, it was just the only big narrative-driven comic I could think of from the era)

I regret to admit that I was way into Megatokyo as a dumb teen. Now the only comic I follow is OOTS, which helpfully reminds me of the glory days when 8bit theater still existed. (and to a lesser extent; Bob & George)

megatokyo's a funny one for me because i discovered it not on the internet but at my local library as a preteen because someone had apparently requested the library try and get all the printed book volumes and i saw it while looking for the next few volumes of, like, rave master or whatever like its just so loving funny in retrospect that my first big exposure to leetspeak was in loving paper form
