I'm sure Joe should of known that Nintendo has long ago announced that they were going to claim all ad revenue for any videos with their content. Though I do agree its kinda silly that they can get ALL the revenue.

Thats what I was wondering too, recently Microsoft released some terms for LPs and something like all LPs of Microsoft games were semi canon (so if Microsoft does something suggested in an LP it saves them from "I thought of it first" lawsuits or something like that). So with that in mind, what if I did a Halo LP, so its semi in canon fro the Halo lore, and for a single frame there is just a picture of Mario. Does that mean Nintendo gets all profits from my 30 minute video cause for 1/60th of a second I had a picture of Mario up there? Does that mean Nintendo will profit off a Microsoft game lets play? Does this mean that Mario is now semi canon in the Halo universe? Surely just taking a cut rather then the whole hog will work better for Nintendo? I'd rather earn a percentage of 100 people's earnings rather then 100% of 10 people's earning.

WickedHate posted:Jade Emperor makes a huge deal about how Open Palm and Closed Fist are "just philisophies" and not nessicarily good or evil. Yeah, no, Open Palm is Kung Fu Jesus and Closed Palm is super Dark Side. Any video game morality system with a meter is screwed and gonna end up that way, it seems. I think there is a single time where open palm/closed fist are actually a role reversal, something where the open palm option had villagers stay in a doomed villager and the closed fist option got them to leave where they would have a better life. Its kinda like the Onderon situation in KOTOR 2, the darkside would have the Onderon's let them keep their individuality and culture, the light side would end with them being absorbed into the republic and just being some other planet in their control. Sure, at the time it seems good/bad but the lasting effects turn out to be the opposite.

Compendium posted:For instance, there was this whole bit making a joke out of the transformation scenes which was... really tasteless. There was also that part where he suddenly goes on about the consent laws of Japan and how the law only covers penis in vagina intercourse and not non piv and its was just really loving weird. Child sex exploitation is horrible, but is your review of a 90's anime really the place to talk about it? EDIT: Oh and it is jarring when he goes on about that then says Sabrina is slutty several times through the review. Leal fucked around with this message at 01:32 on Mar 8, 2015 |

Thats what happens when 2 characters from the 90's share an S and have a talking cat, woops. Also I always thought the "Its a character!" thing was nothing more then a backpedaling excuse whenever they say something that would anger people. Good to know I thought right.

How would he even release that without being slapped with a copyright suit? Though I guess if Suburban Knights hasn't had any problems... Sephiroth_IRA posted:It seems kinda obvious he never really intends to do anything more than a really shallow review. Any more depth than that probably would interfere with the whole angry review gimmick. In his Sailor Moon review iirc he acts like Jadeite is a character that sticks around and is constantly causing problems when he gets axed off in like 10 or so episodes

I remember when I was trying to get into anime I read about Elen Lied and iirc it involves some girl who is often topless, I guess has to wear a diaper and killed other girls in overly brutal fashions. I think there was a thing about cloning girls just to kill them that drove me off.

The Vosgian Beast posted:There was one guy who used to do videos that were just Irate Gamer videos with subtitles and video clips put in to mock him. I tried watching a "Lets Endure" video of people watching a "This is how you don't play" video and its amazing how some people can actually be worse then the subject they're mocking. Besides the commentary not being funny (No its not, Phil. Repeat over and over) one of the other guys who barely ever spoke would constantly burp into his mic. gently caress you, its bad enough that Phil does that, why the gently caress do you, someone mocking him, have to also do it? OrangeKing posted:Allison once got me to watch an episode of the Irate Gamer's paranormal investigation show, "Haunted Investigators." It is truly one of the best/worst things I've ever seen, and could be a low-rent parody of all of the ghost investigation shows that have been on television over the years if it wasn't so earnest. Doesn't IG actually teach ghost hunting in college?

What kind of person only owns cheap, untailored brown suits? Supposedly fans of DSP have complained that he got rid of some couch that used to be in his videos. I'm sure there would be a lot of backlash if Linkara wore different clothes.

OldTennisCourt posted:All you need to know about DSP is that he's a grown adult who still blames his controller when he loses fighting games online. He will then call anyone who beats him either a scrub or a fat loser who is too good at a video game. Basically, you know how people complain that games recently force hand holdy tutorials? DSP shows why its needed. He couldn't figure out how to use rations in MGS2 for a few hours despite pushing every button EXCEPT L2. Multiple times there will be instructions on screen that he'll flat out ignore then complain about the game never explaining things. He can fail missions in ways I never knew were possible: You know the mission in GTA5 where Franklin goes to the gun shop and Llamar says "Hey get the shotgun with a flashlight on it"? He buys other things and fails the mission because he ran out of money and yells about how he was supposed to know to buy the shotgun. Did you know in San Andreas you can fail a mission by being locked in a freezer with another NPC? I would think its all a big act except the guy bought a new car and put a down payment for a house in a gated community and expects youtube and twitch money to cover it all.

Its strange that I'm a 90s kid yet I seem to enjoy 80s media more. I've tried looking it up but is there any sort of term for that kind of 80's cinematography? It seemed to be a big thing back then to have dark scenes with white-blue lighting and fog. E: Really thats the big reason I like to see Todd discuss a song from the 80s and seeing the music videos from that time.
