Mad Lupine posted:He really hits most of the points as to why 'Hello' was disappointing (it's basically a lesser retread of 'Someone Like You'). Hello is a Sam Smith song , and there's nothing worse than becoming the poor man's version of the poor man's version of yourself. While I'm derailing about music, even though Sugar will probably be on Todd's worst list, it's a better Michael Jackson song than any of his posthumous output.

Jim stearling put up his best and worst of 2015 videos. His worst of is always interesting because he digs into the bowls of Steam and finds the absolute worse and low effort Unity games. One of those Day Z clones made it onto the store.

Sugar as in the Maroon 5 song? He tweeted once about it, said it was basically album filler level of quality but still the best thing Maroon 5 has put out in years, which, yes, that's about right. Probably on the honorable or dishonorable mention list, but I'm not sure which.

I used to post on a small forum with Guru Larry. He's honestly a funny, friendly guy who knows a lot about video games, and is interesting to listen to. The only problem is he's a bit obessed with trolling, and blurs his professional image with his online ''for teh lulz XD' persona too much. It's a shame, since his videos are really good, and they deserve more views. If you want chat about obscure zx spectrum games, he's a really clever guy - just don't ask him about memes or anything. His interview with Chris-Chan is painful, for example. But his recent videos are great.

BigRed0427 posted:Jim stearling put up his best and worst of 2015 videos. I find it interesting that Jim had put games in his list that are supposed to be representative of things in games that he hated this year (asset flips and bad horror games), because it reminds me of how much sheer crap there actually is in Steam. Of course, the fact that playthroughs of bad Steam games are pretty much his channel's bread and butter also says something.

Good Bad Flicks put up a new video on the Silent Night, Deadly Night controversy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=opcrXyLXlP0 It was interesting, but his "PC gone mad!!!" speech was pretty . He even referenced South Park and that dumb Dead or Alive volleyball game no one cared about until that "SJWs!" tweet. I agree that censorship is bad, but let's not compare "I don't like certain aspects of this thing" with "I'm going to do everything in my power to makes sure this thing doesn't see the light of day."

I don't see why people find it so hard to believe that DOA Xtreme doesn't sell well in the US and that Koei made a cynical business decision like they are often one to do mixed with some half-hearted PR damage control. I mean, they weren't afraid of SJWs or whatever when they released wet t-shirt DLC for DOA5.

Because vehemently anti-"SJW" people are actually retarded.

Yeah, while it's done some really good things and helped cool people get their games on Steam for a while, Greenlight nowadays is mostly infested with terrible memes, flavor of the month clones and stolen asset cashgrabs it seems.

I remember finding an Imgur gallery archiving that conversation (http://imgur.com/gallery/1hhNF/new) Maybe I've been staring into the abyss for too long, but to me, he was trying to be a lot more civil about the matter than you were. I'm not saying that he's necessarily right (his stance is kind of extreme), but when you started arguing with Rhianna Pratchett, I found what you said to her far more egregious than anything Cecil said.

Yeah man that is super hosed up. It's one thing to trash someone for being a gator or otherwise actively making things worse, but a random woman in the industry "not speaking up" is a bullshit witch hunt reason to attack her. Just because someone isn't knee deep in activism doesn't mean they're ignoring it to be a model minority.

I barely knew who she was, so my logic was that if someone complaining about skeletons brings someone up as an ideal, that person is the polar opposite of an ideal. Once I noticed my error in trusting the word of someone who makes rants about Ess Jay Dubs, I apologized immediately and she thanked me for it. Doesn't stop me from believing that if you're not part of the solution, you're part of the problem, and you don't get to kvetch if you're treated like part of the problem.

(Parts 1, 2, and 3). I haven't watched much of his stuff, but I'm curious as how he records all his footage. Unless I misunderstood what he said, it can't be cheap to travel between (or even around) California & Florida to record footage at the Disney theme parks. Even if you could, it seems like it would still be difficult to do, as I would think the park staff would monitor people to keep them from doing that.
