damn, lucky i saw it just after he upped it

>based ggg looks out for consumers by calling a spade a spade to his own detriment
>gets btfo by corporate suits
>Yea Forums shits on him
Absolutely disgusting

He's the cunt who signed up to be an EA shill in the first place. He knew full and fucking well what that Game Changer program is.

>had to delete wrong opinion off internet
scary stuff

ggg no re

is that the "thanks nig" guy?

Quit being entitled. These developers work tirelessly to create progressive, diverse, inclusive video games for us. The guy in the OP image, who of course is a white man, deserves to be blacklisted.

>Sign something that says you can't criticise the game.
Yeah, really looking out for the consumers, there.

If he's already blacklisted then what reason is there to delete it?

And then he criticized it ANYWAY. This badass dabbed all over EA and you fucks are sucking EA corporate dong.

Panicked, breach of contract etc, Game Changers program specifically states what you can and cannot say about the game.

remember gamur gate?

that's what that was actually about.

>Game Changers program
Never heard of it.

Not at all, he was reactionary because the game got destroyed critically, if he came out positive he would be called a shill and lose his following.

Guy tried to get some shill bucks but managed to fuck it up spectacularly.

funny that you don't even include his next response saying that he will reupload it. you're so fucking sad for trying to falsely maligned other people. pathetic people like you on the internet today is common place though

>And then he criticized it ANYWAY.
Only because it was absolute dogshit and he knew he couldn't get away with lying.
I bet if it was just mediocre he would have followed his contract and just praised it.

Well now you have, welcome to EA.

Because he breached contract, which means they probably told him to remove it or get ready to be sued.

>baseless assumptions
people like you are why we get shit like anthem and not good games any more

He took it down in panic because he violated Game Changer contractual agreement (Which he signed) stating what you can and cannot say.

He is re-uploading because his Game Changer agreement is now null and void, he still needs to get view revenue, but everyone now knows he signed up to shill.

Yo boy fucked up.

EA lawyers finna bouta dab on this nigga

STFU you commie
it's all good as long as it's corporations the ones doing the censorship and not the government

He can re-upload it, he took it down because he's clearly a fucking idiot who panicked, he's just been kicked from Game Changers program, blacklisted by EA, and wont receive money from them.

Trouble is everyone knows he signed up with them now.

>break contract
>Ysuprised he gets his hsit pushed in
it's as if he's a toddler getting a taste of the real world for once. Retard either should've never signed it or at least fucking read it before signing.

We get shit like anthem because I think people shouldn't sign no-criticism contracts, and those that do are anti-consumer?

I'd love to hear your logic.

This but unironically.

Not the fist time Faggg does this shit
He's a fucking hack with shit taste in games

explain.

Stop muddying discussion by being an ironic shithead about race constantly. Discuss the actual issue of EA paying people off.

ea is not the only one with this programs, just so you know

By trying to stick up for us. And you shitters are crapping on him for it. I don't recognize this board any more.

It has nothing to do with having a partner program or not. Every piece of sponsored content is contracted and has stipulations, even if they are allowed to have their creative freedom with it.

Bull fucking shit you shill retard, he knew what he signed up for and backed out when all the formal critics shat on the game in fear of being called out on his stupid shilling for EA bucks, fuck off from this site.

His review was pathetic anyway He was trying to sound both apologetic and servile whilst simultaneously slamming the game. If you're going to kiss arse then choose an arse to kiss, don't tongue them all at the same time.

>he was reactionary because the game got destroyed critically
He wasn't reactionary against F76. What exactly is Yea Forums's problem against the guy? ggg's reviews are somewhat shallow and nowhere near as insightful as someone like Mattosis, but his videos are pretty chill and well presented. Why are you such a bunch of losers who can't accept when someone has a different opinion?

Shilling works great until formal critics call the product shit, then you either join them, or get called out by your following.

"Influencers" are fucking cancerous little shits.

Do not insult people's intelligence here by assuming your boyfriend didn't know what he signed up for, he's a fucking paid shill and it backfired on him because the mainstream called his game shit. Now fuck off.

I dislike EA but objectively I'm on EA's side here. If it was sponsored and he signed something they can do whet ever the fuck they want, within their rights

>doubles down on EA defense
Are you fucking cereal right now?

>Anthem is so bad you even paid shills give up

Shills live rent free inside your head. God, you people are pathetic.

its up on bitchute

Game Changerd FAQ says it is ok to criticise the game. Nothing in his video is just hating and it all seems reasonable. EA just didn't like honest opinions of their game. GGG did nothing wrong, even by EA's own public guidelines.

He's just as bad as EA you fuckwad, once you sell your soul to shill you don't get to come back.

Wait he signed a contract to shill the game and then made a review saying its shit? Is this dude fucking retarded?

>pro consumer youtube who breaks contract to let his audience know the game is a piece of shit is just as bad as Electronic Fucking Arts

He was just looking out for himself. The game is obvious shit since major outlets shits on it, shilling it would be self-suicide. He just calculated that keeping his retarded fanbase was more important than a premium EA shill contract.

Nothing based. If he wanted to be based, he would shell out his own money for that EA pass and slam the game as hard as possible.

He was literally never looking out for others in the first place. Sponsorships aren't about the consumers. This situation only came about in the first place because he signed a contract with EA. He's not a hero for disliking the game, in fact he probably would be much less relevant without this "controversy". He stands to gain a lot of traffic by playing the hero for faggots like you.

I didn't need to see his review to know Anthem was going to turn into a shitfest. Ever since the announcement I knew it's going to be the typical EA title.

>Why are you such a bunch of losers who can't accept when someone has a different opinion?
The irony, read your own retarded post first faggot.

It's not illegal though? Just because the company stopped giving hiim free shit doesn't mean he broke any actual laws. He's not in prison and still free to continue shitting on their games. He just won't get the game handed to him for free by the company itself now.

T.anthem premium owner

He's a literal paid shill, fuck you

>pro consumer
The fact that he signed up for a shill program in the first place disproves this

>paid shill gets BTFO
Yeah pardon me if I find that hilarious

How do you think the "corporate suits" got the leverage to shit on him, you mouth-breathing retard? He literally signed a contract to promote their product.

Have no intention of playing it but I did buy ME:A at launch

and have 300 hours in it

He signed up for it so he can get the game ahead of release.
If he got the game on launch by the time he published his review, a lot of consumers might've been duped by EA's marketing.
This is probably the lesser of 2 evils.

I played it, I liked it ,this circle jerk is really funny

>Want his cake and eat it too
How can faggots like him continue scamming his viewers and game companies without any negative consequences?

>shill
time to get dabbed on. see:

Retard, do you think if anthem was doing well with reviewers (and it was still shit) that he'd have disclosed this? He's only jumping ship because he realises there's no way he can shill the game without it being painfully obvious that he's being paid to do so. If he had any integrity at all he'd have never have signed up in the first place. It's like someone apologising only after they got caught.

People who buy games on release deserve to get duped. It's the only way they'll learn.

You're just not very smart, I guess.

Not an argument. Why are you defending some scumbag e-celeb? Are you a fanboy or something?

But they keep EA afloat, this shit needs to be cut from the roots.

What irony, you moron? Calling others a shill isn't a matter of opinion, it's an accusation.

Who?

>Several people got the game ahead of release and posted their reviews before him without signing up to shill contract
Yup, looking out for you.

He's absolutely correct. The contract that he signed had multiple clauses listing topics that he is and isn't allowed to discuss in his review. The contract is so restrictive that EA basically writes the review for you.
At no point was he under the illusion that he wasn't signing up to be a mouthpiece.

>But they keep EA afloat
Yeah, and keeping consumers dependent on near-release reviews to dissuade them from buying on day 1 instead of encouraging them to just wait a few days until the dust settles after release isn't gonna fix that problem.

You've done nothing but suck EA's dick this entire thread. Fuck off. I'm done with you, you stupid troll.

Is alright, as long as it is the truth, such as this case. I honestly hope you do not think he is your friend just cause you subbed to him.

Have you ever met a real life e-celeb cumslurper? They are so braindead that they only parade their big bros opinions and can not form their own. Shit is scary, especially when you encounter them in among your relatives.

>You've done nothing but suck EA's dick this entire thread.
Retard. was my first post. How the fuck have I defended EA at all? It's not a binary thing, you can hate both EA and the snake oil shills they recruit like the e-celeb mentioned by OP. You have literally no argument.

Not him. Still 7/10 bait. But you were way too obvious this last post.

>I honestly hope you do not think he is your friend
That actually would be less pathetic than viewing someone as an arch-nemesis because of his opinions on video games. Grow the fuck up.

So what was different between his review and the other game changer reviews because they all called Anthem unfinished

I'm surprised no one sees it as a bad attempt at a good PR move, because that's all it probably is.

EA is unironically /ourguys/, they released some solid kinos like Dragon Age Inquisition and Titanfall 2.

I will support them over Epic chinks anyday.

>That actually would be less pathetic than viewing someone as an arch-nemesis because of his opinions on video games
Who is saying this? I've literally never watched a single one of his videos, I've never heard of him till this thread, I just hate shills and love seeing them get what they deserve

>attacking shill = defending EA
Are you people actually braindead?

What's more interesting is this little incident, and this dumb cunt throwing a bitchfit over it shines a light how these little weasels are being (contractually agreed by both parties) compensated for positive game coverage.

That post was ironic.

What's weird is that all the madden ea game changers guys can say what they want And they all trash it. One of them doesn't even play madden 19. Guess the issues with it are too well known/fans buy it anyway

Did he confirm getting money for it? Cause Dantics, DESU,Ashe,Datto,OWG and a bunch of others in the same program still haven't been blacklisted despite them all saying the game was unfinished and lackluster.

Well then he's a lying little shit because he signed the Game Changers agreement. You personality cultists are fucking delusional.

anyone reuploaded the video? he could just post it to pornhub

Is gggmanlives literally mentally retarded? I can't believe that shit.

>Game Changers agreement
What's that?

he reuploaded it

would've thought EA would be on his ass even harder for doing that

but he really didnt shill this game at all, he went to a preview event sure but hes certainly not telling people to buy this game.

>be goymanlives
>australian
>acts like some pussy merican that cant in to bant
>gets butthurt over some horse archers shitposting about him on mongolian horse taming forums

he might be aussie only in paper because he acts like a huge bitch that takes stuff seriously

Original video had EA water mark, cooyright issues.

His sponsorship was that he was given early copies prior to release to review

The preview video was very positive though.

>deserves to be blacklisted.
Stop using that racist-born word you fucking bigot, it's PeopleOfColorlisted.

>huge bitch that takes stuff seriously
I mean, the way people have been attacking him seems pretty serious. If anything, he's the one making light of the situation with that jab at the beginning of his Anthem video. I wouldn't be surprised if Yea Forumsirgins were the ones acting like bitches because of that.

>unsubscribed a week ago

Nibba sold out

>blacklisted so had to delete it
What does that even mean? Game is out, you can't break an NDA. Can only literally mean that his contract specified positive coverage.

Game is so bad that even paid shill refused to give it a positive review. Think about it for a second

>These kids who don't know what the EA Game Changers program is.
Is it Summer yet?

>Can only literally mean that his contract specified positive coverage
This theory makes absolutely no sense because he reuploaded the exact same video.

The start of the video will have had the ea gamechangers logo and he has to remove it

You dab on EA by not giving them attention or money, retard.

That is literally what Game Changers is, you imbecile, read the fucking thread for once in your life.

>I've been blacklisted by EA
You fucking idiot

> pay people to lie when you could be throwing that money at the game to improve it

EA marketing programs are my favorite videogame

Why wouldn't he just keep it up? He's already been blacklisted.

So how's he a shill then? Hopefully you're starting to understand why this thread is fucking retarded.

See
So either EA lied to him about his freedom to criticise their games or he lied to everyone else and was happy to be a shill until a game came out he couldn't reasonably defend. The first one is not the sort of mistake major corporations make and the latter is exactly the sort of dodgy stuff people in gaming media do.

...

>Shillermanlives pretending he has ethics

LOL

Attached: jjjewmanlives.jpg (195x257, 19K)

He signed up to provide positive opinions on a product in exchange for compensation. The mainstream formal critic media provided negative opinions towards the product.

In fear of losing his subscriber base over being caught out, he joined the mainstream critics in slamming the game, while forgetting that he was contractually obligated not to do this, in panic, he deleted his video in fear of reprisal from the first agreed party, the publisher, EA.

He decided to feign ignorance and virtue signal his sound ethics on social media.

This caused a lot of unwanted attention as a lot of people are shining a spotlight on what just happened here.

This guy fucked up really, truly badly, got really greedy, thought he was clever by playing his following and the publisher at the same time, and now he is kind of stuck in this fuck.

Mostly correct but he only deleted the video because he had to get rid of all the EA sponsor references

how can a person be this retarded?

>was happy to be a shill until a game came out he couldn't reasonably defend
Like it was pointed out earlier, he didn't follow the majority opinion of FO76, and that game was in a much worse shape than Anthem is now. So why would he risk his relationship with EA?

OH NO NO NO

He did nothing wrong by EA's own admission

depends on the contract but they could potantially sue him for shitting on it if he's contractually bound not to shit on it ever. but I guess this was not the case since he reuploaded it.

How the fuck should we know? The guy clearly is a weasel shill, like most of these influencers.

Stop trolling me you frickin frick!

This is why GGGManlives has always been kind of a terrible reviewer. Sometimes comfy like when he reviewed all those shovelware games. That's a great video

But yeah, for Anthem? Fallout 76? That Walking Dead game? I can't get a bead on what is actually good and bad with this guy.

Anthem is getting absolutely assblasted right now user. I barely care a out it's existence and even I know how bad the reception is. I don't know what his opinion on fo76 was. Was it positive?

It was basically "it's fun with friends", and people were already hating on him for being too lenient with that game.

Cv11 is better anyway

So he gets called out on how his video didn't properly disclose he was sponsored and immediately tries to turn it back to the unrelated problem that its about the game and not because he, well, didn't properly disclose his sponsors?

That's such a generic cop out I don't think it tells us much.

This means nothing, all EA has to do is say that it wasn't honest or constructive and it doesn't apply.

I don't even know what's going on anymore. D-did gggmanlives admit that he's a shill for no reason then?

KEK

In both cases Bioware and Bethesda didn't make games for their core audiences

As for which is worse, Fallout 76 just seems buggier and worse off in generall.

Don't EA usually pay these people to make impression videos, not reviews?

Yes well his contract obviously no longer is valid

HAHHAHAHAHAHAHA

So he's not blacklisted then. Just delisted from the special shill group.

so heres what i've come up with
>GGGshillman shills anthem preview
>sucks the 'ol ea dong
>release another review of anthem a few weeks later
>bashes it
>EA tells him to disclose his shillness and fix the video
>gggman panic removes the video trying to save face and hide the fact he's a shill and claims to be blacklisted
>EA says nah you not blacklisted

More so what this means is that EA was literally trying to pay him to only say positive things about the game, and that's the actual concern here. I understand how shilling works, and how companies REALLY don't want you saying ANYTHING negative about their product, but this is another thing entirely. If it was a game he knew that he wouldn't enjoy, then he shouldn't have accepted to be paid for a review, and it technically is his fault, but at the same time, EA is so absolutely desperate for people to say anything good about Anthem that they're willing to pay Youtubers to do it.

i'm glad EA is in such shambles. It's just a glory to watch them burn.

No, EA dude is just playing with words. Being excluded from game changers is not equal to being blacklisted.

Read the thread faggot EA didn't do shit the guys deluded

Oh wow. I expected this to be the usual "I'm the hero gamers deserve" martyrdom, instead he's just a fucking shill that failed at shilling

This guy just fucking nuked his own credibility kek. Suicide vid incoming I guess.

EA didn't make Titanfall 2, that was all Respawn you fucking faggot, and they intentionally sacked the release date to boot.

From all of /tfg/; Fuck you.

>EA didn't do shit
No, EA didn't BLACKLIST him. They did however remove him from game changers, they're just not saying it.

to add onto this you should also take his apex review with a ton of salt since that would be in his window of shillness

Honestly fallout 76 would be worse if there was actual disappointment in the product. Not to mention if they killed off one of their core franchises in order to make fallout 76.

>sign a contract saying you won't mention certain things
>mention those things
>contract is breached and you're faced with legal repercussions
>the out they offer is for you to remove the video
streisand effect ensures the video will be up shortly, and he complied with their request so there you go.

chances are in a week after release has come and gone EA puts out a statement saying "Sorry there were some crossed wires we would never accept someone feeling threatened by our program, we ensure you wholeheartedly we've taken every word [INSERT E-CELEB HERE] has said and will be putting it into our work going forward."

manufactured outrage the day of a game's release, people are going to want to see just how bad the game is when they could have seen at any point this last week while it's been in "pre-availability" state for anyone who drops $5 for origin access. Now they're going to buy it full price cause they're fucking stupid. ea wins

Shambles? They still have all their sports games, and Apex Legends is doing great.

You know, I was fine with Ggg for awhile. I thought a lot of his older reviews were fine (I remember liking his Borderlands 1 review). And then I remembered what he said about Titanfall 2, and how he was yet another one of those piece of shit fucking assholes that literally the day of release were doomsaying the game and saying that the game's multiplayer would be dead in a month. So whatever, fuck him. Thanks for reminding me.

if he was "based" he wouldn't have signed up to EA's shill program in the first place, he's a bottom feeding parasite like all the rest plain and simple.
you fucking redditors will never learn though.

WHAT IF I POST NEGATIVE FEEDBACK ON THE GAME, OR EA?
If a Game Changer posts a negative review or content about the company or one of our games that is honest and constructive – they will have our thanks and full support. We demand that our Game Changers act with honesty with us, with our dev teams, and with the community. Sometimes this can make things uncomfortable! EA is committed to being player first and earning the trust of our community. We make mistakes and get things wrong all the time. For our teams to improve and get better, we need our Game Changers to keep it real.

>signing up for a shill program while still having principles and reporting what you actually think

good gamble

>while still having principles and reporting what you actually think
yeah he didn't do that though, got flown out to japan and pandered to with an exclusive play session then made a video about how great the game was, 2 weeks later when the public opinion has shifted on the game he's shitting on it because that's the "in" thing and gets blacklisted for not playing ball with ea
he has no principles and you are all fucking retards for going along with it.

>100% certain
well you can keep believing that if you want. If it's anything like the contracts I had to sign when I worked at IGN UK about sharing game footage pre-release, there were very specific things we were not allowed to talk about or mention. Usually in the form of bugs since we got ACTUAL indev copies, not just demos, but they were very real, and very definitively determined if we were ever going to get access to a game by that company again.

>Literally BEFORE THE GAME WAS OUT reviewers were saying that the game's online is going to be dead based on absolutely goddamn nothing
Yes I'm fucking mad, so shut the fuck up, faggot. Go suck TotalBiscuit's dead decrepit dick.

>And then I remembered what he said about Titanfall 2
His review of TF2 was very positive though. Him pointing out a small player base is no one's fault but EA for releasing BF1 in such a short period of time.

>this literal EA marketer says they don't take down criticism
>i-it's true then
Jesus are you people retarded or is this thread infested with shills or what

I thought the point of these programs is that EA had no actual creative control over what you produced?

>sharing game footage pre-release
Yeah, that's an NDA, you retard. Of course people sign those. What they don't sign is a contract saying you have to be positive. There's no NDA that applies after the game launched, that would be retarded.

Didn't TB call titanfall 2 boring trash? It was such a shit review completely contrary to popular opinion to try and get ckicks.

>It's an NDA

He literally took a shit on the game in his video yet he is still a shill? Bruh, that's not how it works.

Even without Apex Legends being an overnight success to rival Fortnite, EA will never have any financial issues as long as they keep releasing sports games in Europe.

Nigger, the release window was the worst possible and Titanfall was niche at best. It never stood a chance. Goddamn, you fags are the bronies of shooters.

He got paid to talk about the game, how is that NOT shilling? It's the literal definition of shilling.

Yeah, something like that. Basically his opinions on the game were absolute fucking trash and completely fucking worthless, and there were tons and tons of people actively calling him out on his shit. He was trying to say that there was no reason to have things like the wall-run and double jump mechanics because the game apparently doesn't give incentive to the player to use them, even though that's complete horseshit. His review (which he was adamant to say wasn't a review but a """first-look""" because he was such a fucking faggot) was so fucking bad he made a damage control video of him playing multiplayer and being an absolute braindead shit at it (camping with the cloak) while he read off comments he completely cherrypicked to make people who were calling him out on his shit look like unintelligent monkeys while trying to act like he's so fucking great at everything. He basically exposed himself as the casual shitter he tried to say he wasn't, even though he dropped games like Dark Souls despite trying to get it on PC because it was too hard for a baby like him.

He's a game reviewer that signed with EA to shill the game. He got his review taken down because he couldn't possibly shill it successfully without everyone knowing he's a blatant sellout. People like him give bad games positive reviews only when the game is not extremely and transparently awful.

Just more proof that you can't trust reviews by anyone that has any ties to the company that made the game

OK for real this nigga is real. I wish someone would give him money to shill or something, good dude.

It's funny, I'm subbed to at least 100 gaming channels on youtube, several of which are unabashed EA shills ("Game Changers") and a lot more who'd normal play and review games like Anthem, and yet there hasn't been an single Anthem video in my sub box since the trial thing started. Pretty pathetic.

I agree

Civvie is a bluepilled cuckold who still hasn't covered Duke 3D

don't know who this fag is or anything about anthem, but companies buying out online "influencers" plagues all sorts of gaming companies and is a massive fucking problem. It used to be that you could watch a yt review of a game to cut through the bullshit that """"journalists""""" would throw in their reviews of shit, but now they are basically on the same level, not willing to give honest opinions on games for fear of being cut off from early access and losing the online rat race

Maybe he shouldn't have sold out.

Like, that's old school metalhead absolutist shit, but he went from zero to shill in a way I've never visibly, obviously, objectively seen, least of all in this timeframe. I loved his videos, they were in-depth, informed, had good production value; he was doing great.

Then came the Far Cry video. Nobody had good shit to say about it, nobody was hyped. And yet he got to play it like a month early and through gritted teeth found tons of good to say, and had tons to say to naysayers. It was clear what happened, and it was just over the line enough that I couldn't stand it.

He made his bed. I hope he can make amends and get up, but for now the fucker gets to lie in it.

The big publishers treat us like marks and rubes and hate us. Fuck shills, fuck collaborators. This industry is too far gone to help them at all except in the most extreme cases of good.

He's also covered Blood 2 and Hunt Down the Freeman.
What I was saying is I don't see why he needs to cover every big game immediately.

I just click the sub button when I stumble across a video I think is good. It adds up over time, and it's nice since I can just click the sub box button and have tons of content from channels I already know I like instead of having to sift through mountains of obnoxious garbage.

This.

I don´t know this guy but he just lost money for saying the truth and that needs praise, not criticisim.

Duke Nuke 3D is the granddaddy. It leads into Blood and Shadow Warrior quite well, and if you're a fan of those two you have to be a fan of Duke 3D, and there's a recent contingent of numalefags like Civvie who don't like Duke 3D just because of its content so will instead worship Blood and Shadow Warrior (which is funny because Shadow Warrior is just as racy with the anime babes and white guy playing an asian, but they like to ignore this fact)

>Gamergateman signs a cuck contract

Yikes.

Shadow Warrior is just as non-PC as Duke, c'mon now.
>(which is funny because Shadow Warrior is just as racy with the anime babes and white guy playing an asian
exactly?
>but they like to ignore this fact
so you're making an accusation based on something you know is false but you still want to believe it anyway?
Heck Blood has dismembered female corpses with their cleave out too.
I like Duke 3D but in terms of gameplay it's slightly overrated but in terms of raciness that's literally the best part.

Your whole accusation is contradictory and you seem to be aware of it so why are you still adamant that it's fact?

By casual I mean the fucking easiest and straightforward.
You'd know that if you'd ever played any of these games.

I think you need to watch his videos, my dude. His whole cancer mouse skit is literally insulting anything right wing

Oh and in his Bad Day LA review he says

>Making fun of military good
>Making fun of racial minorities bad

Blood and Shadow Warrior are hard because of poor design. Like the bad maps in the final episode of Doom.

Duke Nukem 3D gives the player so many tools so of course it's a little on the easier side.

Someone tell me what's actually going on, did they want him to take it down because he didn't disclose that he was sponsored by EA?

I'm just saying that getting worked up over some small time YouTube channel because they didn't review a 20 year old game solely so you have something to get mad over is pretty retarded.

EA shill claims he was blacklisted over a video because it was negative and he's part of some program EA where they pay people to shill their games early. Dude that works with the program said he isn't blacklisted, and that they asked him to remove the video because he didn't point out that he received the copy/money to review the game.

>he has covered TWO build games (Blood and SW)
no he covered William Shatner's TekWar and Ion Maiden too.
Just a reminder, Ion Maiden is a 3D realms game they made because they don't have Duke's rights anymore.
You can admit you're being retarded now.

>Also he played Sin and didn't have any issue with the massive tits in his face, just joked about it.

Because that game starred a black guy. Liberals are strangely okay with what they perceive as sexism as long as it's a black guy doing it. (Or in the case of Wang, an Asian)

Right, because of the sexism as it's clear he's a liberal from the anti-Trump jokes in his videos, as we've established.

seek help buddy, your brain is legitimately rotted from all the BLACKED shit you watch.

Even the machines want him to suffer that is just hilarious and fitting.
But I think the next video will be about the blood expansion I think because I remember him talking about that in the doom video.

I are not. The entire exchange is right there, the marketer pointed out that it was taken down because he failed to disclose while this e-celeb is trying to pivot to it being taken down because it was negative. The former is more likely to be truthful as companies can get into shit over paying someone and it not being disclosed and this is only helped by the fact this faggot has been caught lying before.

When?

Again, why are you projecting? I never said anything like that.

Jesus christ you civvie fanboys are legit mentally ill.

Where were dicks brought up at all? He pointed out that a game he didn't bitch about because of tits had a black MC which might have contributed to him forgiving certain aspects of the game.

He claims he's not a shill but works for a program where he's encouraged to give positive feedback in exchange for products. He's an idiot that was caught with pants down.

You were the one who brought up dicks my dude.

you just said Sin is somehow about interracial when it's not.
If you've played or even watched the video you'd know Blade not only doesn't seem very black but he doesn't have a relationship with the fanservice villain anyway.

He also conveniently ignored the tits in Blood because Blood has a presumably white protagonist and that would make his wild conspiracies seem like wild conspiracies.

This - want to see him talk his way out of it though

This has to be bait.
With a contract he's LITERALLY the equivalent of an EA employee, no shit you can't shittalk your emplooyer.

Holy shit so let me get this straight, someone correct me if I'm wrong. He uploads a video criticizing Anthem, it gets taken down because it doesn't meet proper requirements in the sponsorship completely unrelated to the criticism, gggman panics, goes into full damage control mode and tries to act like a anti-shill martyr to save his own ass, EA comes in and confirms that he's not blacklisted, or did they take it down because of negative points in the video, it was just because he was a retard that didn't edit the video correctly? And that literally all of this was his fault, and if he'd just kept his mouth shut, waited for confirmation for EA instead of jumping on twitter and starting to fire off his mouth about dumb shit, then reuploaded the video with proper logos, no one would've ever known he was a shill?
The fact that he was frantic/nervous enough to jump into full damage control mode the second the video was taken down proves that he cannot be trusted at all, nor can he ever save face by claiming he took one for gamers ever again. He knew what he was doing was inherently wrong, he knew he sold out to EA, and he was dead scared that his reputation would be ruined if word got out. If he was trying to "pull one over EA" like anons in this thread are trying to defend him, he wouldn't have panicked so hard and tried to cover up his tracks.

Yes Duke is based and epic. Wolfenstein turned BJ into a fag. Don't be a fag like BJ

Yep, scroll up and look at these posts:
It honestly seems that gggman wasn't thinking straight with those twitter posts he made, probably because he was engulfed in a complete state of panic at the thought of being exposed for what he did. He blew his load too early and revealed his hand when he really should've just shut the fuck up and waited for some kind of message from EA. Trying to paint himself as a martyr for the anti-shill cause is really fucking backfiring on him, I think it's fair to say in the eyes of a regular person his reputation is pretty darn tarnished. Imagine lying to try to make yourself out as a hero and then getting the rug pulled out completely under you, exposing you not only as a shill but as someone who can't tell the truth or face consequences either.

Bethesda Wolfenstein is fanfic shit like Bethesda Fallout.

Here are the responses from the ea australia representative
And his stupid reply.

I know what civvie would say about Anthem.
> Fucking RAW

Most YouTube reviewers are hella gay now. The only gaming channels I watch are Civvie11 and NakeyJakey. Everyone else just makes boring and samey trash content.

Wow he's either retarded or malicious. So what makes you think he's malicious?

Nigga, if he had read the damn contract he would know, or he did read it, and he lied.

Lawful and acceptable aren't the same thing. Their own program says, and I quote:
>WHAT IF I POST NEGATIVE FEEDBACK ON THE GAME, OR EA?
>If a Game Changer posts a negative review or content about the company or one of our games that is honest and constructive – they will have our thanks and full support. We demand that our Game Changers act with honesty with us, with our dev teams, and with the community. Sometimes this can make things uncomfortable! EA is committed to being player first and earning the trust of our community. We make mistakes and get things wrong all the time. For our teams to improve and get better, we need our Game Changers to keep it real.

If they then turn around and blacklist the guy and make him delete his review, that's simply wrong, regardless of whether or not it's legally defensible.
You're allowed to defend EA in this, but I'm not going to agree with you, and will voice my opinion on the matter too.

No it was about assblasted incels being afraid of gamer girls and women becoming developers.

>that is honest and constructive
Subjective, the contract itself must have much clearer terms of what is or not "honest" or "constructive".

Why is Gggman so bad at making his videos entertaining?
He just drones on and on without any sense of humor, change in tone or anything.

I honestly think it's a bit of both. He's retarded for choosing to act the way he did without thinking the consequences through, but I believe that he did it out of malice. He accepted a paid sponsorship, tried to hide that fact, and then when the video was taken down for an unrelated (but unknown to him at that moment) reason, his first reaction was to blatantly start lying by painting himself firstly as a victim, and secondly as a hero standing up to corporate shilling for his fanbase. It was a kneejerk reaction with the sole purpose of saving his own skin in the event that (in his mind) anyone put 2+2 together and called him out as a shill before he had a chance to "defend" himself. That part of his decision imo can only be attributed to malice. The retardation comes from the fact that he doesn't seem to have a good grasp on consequences, he clearly didn't think far enough ahead to realize that EA wouldn't take his lies at the cost of their own corporate reputation lying down and that a representative wouldn't pop in to call him out on his bullshit.

I mean seriously you jump to a ridiculous conclusion. It's a much more likely explanation. I don't know much about this guy so I don't know his history but I'd put money on him simply forgetting the whole thing. Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity

Is it just me or why are all these pictures with the binned AAA games always from german electronic retailers?

Considering they hire SJWs instead of real developers we know where their priorities lie. The game being bad shouldn't surprise anyone.

Anthem is bad.

So a sociopathic weasel, like 95% of influencers.

Wtf I love EA now!

But seriously, fuck EA and double fuck streamfags.

Germans like efficiency, the second your game doesn't sell 10m units they go "into the trash oven".

It's stated in the contract, as well as on their website, that criticism of their games will NOT get you blacklisted, nor removed from the sponsorship. In fact, he was very well aware of this, if you scroll up in this thread there are screenshots of youtube comments he has made where he claims that he isn't afraid that this video will be removed because he knows that negative criticism is explicitly stated to be allowed. The EA rep replying to him on twitter even restates this. I don't think the conclusion I reached is too ridiculous or far-fetched, the way he popped off and then the way he talked back to the EA rep afterwards reeks too much of someone trying to cover their ass, I've run into too many pathological liars irl to miss signs like that. I don't think either of us will be able to convince each other of this so it might just be safer to agree to disagree for now, I think it's worth seeing how this plays out in the next few days too.

>can’t say bad word about game
the fuck do people sign up for this for?

why are anons like you coming in here and making posts without at the very least skimming the whole thread first to be caught up with the story? almost all of the last handful of posts are still talking about outdated info that makes it clear they haven't seen EA's official response or gggman's reply back to it yet that confirms that none of that was the case

Since when are publishers trustworthy with their promise of criticism not getting you blacklisted? That happens all the time. Once again the entire mess is easily explained by him forgetting to disclose. Your personal life experience has nothing to do with this and you would be wise to forget your own biases and looking at this more objectively. But if you're a more cynical person then I hope you at least look for actual proof before starting to spread yet another unproven rumour on Yea Forums

Bullshit, dont Germans break from work like 5 times a day to pray?

Imagine what a shitty job it is to be EA's marketing eceleb tard wrangler. Some 40 something dude barely in touch with social media or videogames, goes into work and sees someone from his program sperging out.

So, to recap:
>Gggmanlives signed a contract as part of the EA Game Changers program, basically agreeing to promote their games on his channel
>His audience becomes aware of this and other shady shit, like him taking a trip to a convention on Bethesda's dime prior to uploading a video rebutting the FO76 shitstorm
>He makes a critical review of an EA release and fails to meet the disclosure requirements outlined in his contract
>EA contacts him and ASKS him to take the video down and correct the disclosure issue
>He complies, but lies about being "blacklisted," insinuates that EA took the video down themselves, and seizes the opportunity to pump his credibility by claiming that it was taken down because he was too critical
>Reuploads the video with the disclosure issue fixed and acts like he's taken some stand against EA, as though he has so much integrity that he'd rather risk another takedown than lie to his audience
>EA representative rebuts him on Twitter and explains the disclosure issue, saying that Game Changers are expected to be honest about their participation in the program
>Gggmanlives ignores the substance of this rebuttal and instead makes a witty remark about how he WAS honest... HONEST ABOUT HOW BAD THE GAME WAS [laugh track]

Am I missing anything? Because it seems pretty clear that Gggmanlives is a snake.

Those would be the new units, the old ones, still in control of the sales management, still like their ovens.

he reuploaded the video, so don't know why are you shitting on him. what should he have done? do you know the details of gamechanger and what they require?

>so,
Don't be cringy.

>Once again the entire mess is easily explained by him forgetting to disclose.
Look at my posts again, we agree on this completely. gggman isn't the only "EA game changer" out there you know, and other recent Anthem reviews haven't been taken down for criticizing the game harshly. When the video was taken down gggman panicked and threw out a lie in the worst case that his reputation tanked, instead of sighting tight to hear a response from EA as to the actual reason the video was removed, something that could've been easily resolved if he wasn't retarded nor if he was so quick to try to save his own reputation's skin. It's also fair to say that if he wasn't a shill in the first place absolutely none of this would've happened. He chose to do something morally wrong and tried to save face for it when he really didn't have to, and that's what got him into this mess.
>Your personal life experience has nothing to do with this and you would be wise to forget your own biases and looking at this more objectively.
Non-argument. That is objectively the best and most logical way to approach any scenario. You don't see people in any other field telling people to forget everything they have learned and practiced to tackle something new, knowledge is cumulative and builds up over time. Same thing goes with experiences, people really aren't all that different from each other and there are clear tells when something is fishy as far as behavior goes. How do you think lawyers/judges get so good at their jobs as far as figuring out intent goes?

Fuck you you fucking nigger all I did was try to outline some basic fucking facts for you fags that are too lazy to do it themselves, don't call me fucking cringy. Why don't you make your own, "non-cringy" recap then of this story? No? You won't? Thought not, you fucking retard nigger

this is way more true in film than in video games

>AAA developer
>caring about the quality of their game

Why are you pretending to be me?

>That is objectively the best and most logical way to approach any scenario
You presume guilt through malice despite lack of evidence, I presume innocence through stupidity because of lack of evidence. You're way too deep into your own bias if you think your thought process is the more objective one here

Nah, you are cringy.

Were you just samefagging, user? Were you replying to your own bait?

thanks for the tip, not that it matters since i dont play western trash

>Stop muddying discussion by being an ironic shithead about race constantly
the media has literally taught the current generation that anything is permissible in online discussions if you generate more racial/gender-based arguments and divisiveness.

seriously, this is something that was taught, not just shitposters doing their thing

Now I did see his video before it got "taken down", and it clearly disclosed it was sponsored by EA GameChangers, logo et al. So if there's some disclosure requirements he missed, I wouldn't know what it was.

>GGGManLives is a literal shill
Feels bad. I honestly liked his reviews but I could sense that something was weird with his new releases.
Now that I know he's a confirmed shill I simply can't trust his word anymore.
GGG, if you're reading this: I loved your reviews on old games. They were great content.

kek get a load of this user. He makes a few cringy posts, realizes they're not going over with people as well as he thought they would, then cares so much about his anonymous reputation (literally why???) that he actually takes the time to edit html and doctor a video trying to claim that wasn't him. Fucking pathetic dude, get a grip

>based
Don't encourage this retard, he's cringe to the max

>I presume innocence through stupidity because of lack of evidence
What lack of evidence? There's more than enough posts both by him and EA on multiple websites to support my claims, and none that support yours.

Very true indeed. though fun to see that just the west, especially the US is that retarded. Most east don't protect a game/dev if the game is trash. Trash is trash, no need and way to hide it since it still smells.

Based- Doing what you want and how you want, without caring what others think.
It doesn't mean that it's not stupid though.

You really don't understand what evidence in this case means, do you? Your claim is he was being malicious. Where is the proof of that?

His original video did have the EA GameChangers logo at the start of the video, which as far as we know is the only requirement by the contract, and it was no longer present in the reuploaded video. If the logo wasn't there to begin with, I'm sure people in the YouTube comments section would have been calling him out. Either he missed some other kind of requirement that was considered a breach of contract, but until we know what it was or if there was any to begin with, this is more of a "he said she said" situation. There's not any conclusive evidence which shows that Ssshillmanlives was actually trying to save his reputation by trying to become an anti-shill martyr by throwing EA under the bus.

From this guy's perspective, why shouldn't this guy be a shill? His reviews are as illuminating as reading a wiki page, he has no future in criticism, his audience is dumb, and he'll probably only be a content creator for a few more years. He has the options of 1. Continue to make boring content or 2. Cash in on his boring content.

If he was honest with himself he could have handled this whole ordeal much better. Now he's burned a professional bridge to 2 and soon nobody will want 1.

how many of you would willingly sign up to shill a product for some quick cash
how many of you would do it and then show that the game is shit

If he gave a shit about being a journo/reviewer he should've bought the game like a regular consumer, companies will only give you shit so you're bias anyone thinking he's based for calling a spade a spade at the cost of sponsorship is a dumbass if they think he'll start thinking for himself now.

Everyone here would, fuck I'd do it for free, we hate video games.

>i'd do it for free
slow down there. you havent even passed your jannie training yet

Hello discordtranny

I only shill for products i've used and recommend if i'm signing a shill contract i shill what i want or i don't shill at all so generally no because if i know a game is shit i'm not gonna lie and say it isn't or that apologetic bullshit of "it has it flaws but it's still good!" A good game can be flawed but an objectively shit game is indefensible.

Inncorrect. Some incels made a stink, over half were talking about underhanded shady shit like this.
the companies saw some incels raising a stink, and shifted the focus to them, and anyone who mentioned the true reason, were lumped with the incels.
THAT was what gg was about.

The way marketing departments flatter these kids and sell it, most of them are genuinely too dumb to understand the professional compromise they're making until their audience is pissed off.

who the fuck would trust someone who signed that contract?

good for him

>shills
Kys trannygger.

No one would. That's why they don't disclose the contract

You'd have to be a fucking retard to be pro-Trump after the past 3 years. Any sane conservative is hoping for a better option to vote for next year

most Trump supporters just like him because liberals hate him.
They don't actually give a fuck about the state of the country, conservative values or anything getting better.
I mean Trump is a fucking degenerate that sucks jewish cock, no self-respecting conservative would support such a person if not to spite someone else.

Yeah this seems correct.

It was what it started as until Yea Forums got baited into tunnelvisioning onto the Five Guys stuff, letting the games journalism industry turn it into a political debate

Nope you're 100% factually correct.

Don't be a retard retard. There are laws in almost every civilized country requiring them to disclose that it's an ad and not a genuine review. They just didn't want to get sued.

Doesn't change who took the right decision, retard.

Then buy Division 2 you idiot, it's out in weeks from now.

I still think Hellgate had a chance of being a good game.

Because he think's his content is valuable and ignores the part where there's a hundred other guys doing the exact same thing.

GG's narrative getting turned around into this was a master stroke on the part of the industry.

It's really shocking how such a small channel (less than 300k subs) is already on EA's pocket.
I can't even imagine what happens in big channels.
