- This video was the most painful YT Video Ive ever seen.
-
yeah its not great, he didnt give a shit about the game out the gate. there is a bit in that video where he is giving a summary of his reaction to the opening of the game and he just took the whole game as a joke when he was only minutes in. i dont get it.
ID: ht6ddzsID: ht7bgx4Fake, dumb, cringey.
That's like 98% of the gaming "journalists" on Youtube.
-
He clearly just doesn't enjoy the game, that's ok, not everyone has to enjoy the things we do. I remember articles saying stuff like "this is just fetch quests". Bit of an oversimplification!
It is a difficult game to sum up and I think it probably suffered from journalists having to churn through so many games in a short amount of time.
ID: ht5s6ssAfter the Cuphead video and Polygon playing Doom 2016 I lost faith in game journalists. They don't like anything thats hard, not triple A, or a cute indie game.
ID: ht5xyzjThat Cuphead video kills me every time! I can't say I'm a pro gamer but that was outrageous! I agree, if it doesn't fit in an easy category then they struggle.

....Soooooooo is anyone surprised that the dude, who reviews shooting games, wasn't a fan of the game that wasn't aimed at.....shooting? Like the dude is very much into fast-pace stuff.
Death Stranding is basically the opposite of fast-pace and is designed to be more about the slower-pace.
ID: ht5s9wqDeath Stranding is by far the slowest paced game most of us will ever play.
ID: ht5uj5oFaster paced than most games with relaxing gameplay. Animal Crossing, Stardew Valley, etc.
ID: ht63i7lI came back to playing DS for a second time because Breath of the Wild was too boring for me lol

People who complain about the weight balance and falling over didn't realize that, once you auto-sort, you can just hold both triggers and not worry about balance 80%+ of the time.

I do like The Act Man sometimes, but this is just another one of those dime a dozen videos where the personality simply didn't actually give the game a go. Booted it up, complained about it, then left.
In 5-10 years, when people reflect on the pandemic, and this time period, it'll be remembered similarly to MGS2. Still not universally loved, but the average person who engages in these conversations will see the unique value the game offers.
-
I mean it's the Act Man, that guy can't be taken seriously
-
Holy shit I just watched the video and cracked up laughing.
Don't take stuff like this too seriously.
Edit: okay I watched more of it and it actually sounds like he is talking out his ass.
-
the fact that 73,000 haters liked the video hurts even more
-
He’s more into FPS type stuff & a few other things. I actually enjoy his channel quite a bit, but ya this game was just not for him, & nothing wrong with that.
-
It’s the classic ”wanting to get from point A to point B as fast as possible because you can’t bother with the mechanics and then get angry when you’re punished for mindlessely running across the map with 2% stamina left”.
-
There's no way he did that intro before he made up his mind, so he must have decided that it was still worth all the (low) effort that went into that gag.

It also isn’t correct.
“I just killed somebody with my motorcycle! Pffffffttt!!” Its not even the first time he played that scene and you find out not 3 minutes later that isn’t true.
Fake, dumb, cringey.
