I know Yea Forums hates e-celebs and I do too, but this guy is actually great, provides constructive criticism without being an obnoxious faggot like Pissed Pedro or Jimquisition
what's better is that the devs respond and learn from it, like with Oddworld/Just Add Water responding to the New 'n' Tasty critique video, and the God of War devs too
ye, he's the best
if only hamsterson could boast such accomplishments
it's true, and he finally realised my GOTY from 2017 is good so I can feel assured in his taste
He's a dumb fuck who bitch rages at games he doesn't like and continues to spiral off into ignominy with every increasing moronic "indie highlights" video he makes, huffing the scent of his own farts.
no
Hella fucking BASED.
Mad brainlet virgin upset he shat on GoW.
GoW is piss for small brain babies. Matt is also a small brain baby and he loved GoW and Last of Us.

Matthewmatosis got pretentious as fuck. He is swaying away from game design analysis and trying to make philosophical observations about the value of the game more and more. He is also scared of being labeled a "negative reviewer" which makes some of his stuff seem disingenuous.
>He is also scared of being labeled a "negative reviewer"
yet the guy put out a 40 minute video basically slamming god of war 4
all his videos are about game design and mechanics, he just doesn't write it in overused terms and tries to make his scripts actually creative.
PGB is fucking trash
>DMC1 GOOD
>DMC3 BAD
Yikes and cringepilled
On the one hand he makes genuinely interesting observations and doesn't feel like he over explains his points even if he's got long videos.
On the other hand he pretty much kick-started the trend of longer video essays about video games on YouTube, which now means there's a flood of other "reviewers" out there who seem to think an ability to waffle on for over an hour to shows they've made a good argument.
Leave telling the uninformed my shitty opinions about games i don't care about to let them hate it as well to me!
*BREATHS IN*
KIRBY BAD
PIKMIN GOOD
MARIO AND LUIGI BAD
PAPER MARIO GOOD
ANIMAL POKEMON BAD
ANIMAL CROSSING GOOD
stop watching elmo you baby
He likes DMC3 though
I can appreciate the notion of wanting his videos to say things that haven't already been said. That's probably why there won't be an MGSV or DSIII review. Everything that could be said about those and other games has been said.
And he went on and on about how much he didn't want to another one of those guys making fun of God of war, and proceeded to talk more about how the game simply by being different made him take a look at it even though he thinks it turned out shit. He did the same thing with BTOW, he judged it less on its merits and more on how it was so different than other zelda games. MM went to shit with the garbage sonic dreams review.
duh. Of course he talks about game mechanics, but he doesn't go as in depth as before as more time is spent on more pretentious philosophical analysis and the tone of the videos put this first. The Joseph anderson BOTW video was unironically better than the Matthewmatosis one which seems absurd to say.
Muttosis is the biggest Kamiya cocksucker there is, he even dreams about him. youtube.com
Did he ever review Bayonetta? I can only imagine him praising the space harrier section.
>Plays Star Allies
>"Why doesn't Kirby play like Smash!?!?"

Freedom is one of the game's main merits and what his video focused on :)
>DMC1 Dante? Now THAT'S a real character

>he judged it less on its merits
He sang all the praises of its focus on freedom.
You seem upset (:
imagine watching youtube
imagine talking about yootoobers
imagine playing videogames
imagine posting on Yea Forums
I think he manages to say just as much with videos like gow and zelda than he did with say, dark souls. he's just become better at writting and thinking about games while still being able to speak about games in a more poetic sense.
freedom isn't a gameplay mechanic or game design mechanic but a philosophy of game design. He didn't talk enough about what you can actually do in the game and the pros and cons, and didn't even explain why freedom to go anywhere is inherently good. It was literally "muh freedom" and if you have watched his other reviews (mainly majora and twilight)he just seems pleased that BOTW is a big change from the zelda formula and doesn't care about how good it actually is.
BOTW isn't the only review I haven't been impressed with, again everything since sonic dreams has been mediocre.
Before the thread gets deleted just get your youtuber opinions out there
Im tired of faggots like Arlo and Dunkey to dive into series they never cared about to give their viewers a biased "GAME BAD"
Alpharad's voice is retarded, it sounds like he's stuck on sarcastic mode all the fucking time and it gets annoying
All Poketubers are cancer, maybe 1-2 like Jwittz and Maxmoefoe are decent
LTG is right, Boogey really is fucking lazy
Jim Sterling is fine, but people need to stop acting like they can use him for console war, he's not built for it, he actually likes games
> to dive into series they never cared about to give their viewers a biased "GAME BAD"
kingdom hearts 3 is garbage and you have shit taste
I can't stop watching shitty long form analysis videos, help
maybe we have different tastes. I think his newer works are by far the most distinct and impressive. Very rewatchable. Very focused.
Because Yea Forums is a bunch of retards talking about games, so what's wrong with Yea Forums talking about a bunch of retards who talk about games?
Where did the GoW devs respond to his video?
you're doing gods work but please try to be more punctual in future
>but a philosophy of game design.
And this is not worth talking about?
>that BOTW is a big change from the zelda formula and doesn't care about how good it actually is.
I'm a casual viewer and even I know that that is what is important to him. The Zachtronics reviews and the Lost Arts of Demon's Souls videos crystallize this. When you've played video games for over two decades, you already know what to expect on a game-to-game basis. There's a tutorial area, there's a progression of difficulty, story is doled out in linear chunks, etc. It's always a pleasure when something is different in the medium. That's why he talks at length about the notion of the memories being able to be seen non-linearly. That's why he adores Demon's Souls and Dark Souls but not so much Dark Souls III, Bloodborne, or II.
>implying im talking about KH3
Dunkey has clearly played past games user

>freedom isn't a gameplay mechanic or game design mechanic but a philosophy of game design
How are these things not intertwined?
> He didn't talk enough about what you can actually do in the game
He talked plenty about the game's moment-to-moment exploration, combat, shrines and yadda yadda
> didn't even explain why freedom to go anywhere is inherently good
I'm pretty sure he actually said that the game gives you too much freedom in places (notably traversal and switching outfits) and more limitations/obstacles would enhance the experience
It's okay user, you can go watch Josephson's videos if pedantry and number-crunching is what you're interested in, both have their place in the autistic sphere of youtube vidya anal-ysis
>kingdom hearts 3 is garbage
now how much of that is an actual thought and not just Yea Forums hivemind
Really glad he finally put out a video on Rainworld since it really deserves more recognition and I knew he would like it.
based and pbg pilled
Santa Monica thanked him for his video on Twitter.
Strange because hamsterson also did a video on GoW and they ignored him
>every game doesn't have to be fun
>And this is not worth talking about?
no because it's pretentious and doesn't tell you shit about the game itself. The lost arts of demons souls video is short and focused, the zachtronics reviews talk about the gameplay plenty and when it's not being specific he's talking about how the open endedness relates to the gameplay. The problem is that now his vids are unfocused. Stuff like tetris and demons was short. he's trying to mix actual analysis with with "games as art" shlock and ends up making videos that don't work holistically. It doesn't help he's genuinely afraid of criticizing games, especially if he's not doing a uniform negative review because people sperg out and label reviewers who do that.
I'm torn between really wanting more people to see his stuff because he's so underrated but also not wanting to see him corrupted, especially by Yea Forums
Does that mean that Josephs opinion... dosen't matter?
Hamsterson is the biggest discord whore I've ever seen.
kingdoms hearts as a series is a fucking mess and you are actually subhuman if you find it remotely well designed or endearing. square enix is a fucking joke.
How so?
it's true. Horror games are an obvious example.

andersons GOW review was so pedantic
So why does Yea Forums bitch whenever that jew from naughty dog says it?
don't listen to Yea Forums
it's a painting with a weird perspective
>no because it's pretentious
It's pretentious to talk about the philosophy and thought processes behind game design? How did you ever reach that conclusion?
> the zachtronics reviews talk about the gameplay plenty
To explain just how much critical thinking is involved with this series of video games as opposed to the average contemporary title everyone wants him to review.
You speak as if he talked about nothing else in the BOTW review. There was an absolutely wonderful point about enemy outpost respawns, and that it would've done wonders for progression to not have them respawn to denote the player talking back the land. That late-game Links will ultimately ignore these respawning outposts, turning them into clusters of data and nothing more. Why are you insinuating the review was solely about whatever you think is so negative to talk about game design?
Practically every opinion is fine on Yea Forums until it's expressed by a liberal, and then no matter what it is, it's objectively wrong
the best horror games are all fun to play though
>Siren 2
>Penumbra
>SH2
>Project Zero 2
etc.
All of them are inherently fun in terms of gameplay and progression ,so you keep playing even though you're scared or stressed.
All hte shit horror games are those that arent fun
>and that it would've done wonders for progression to not have them respawn to denote the player talking back the land.
and it would've done wonders for killing the game too, making it even more barren.
how can you even defend that shit opinion?
Maybe because it's three hours of autistic waffling. A notable portion of Anderson's GOW video is just him bitching about how they don't explain what happened with Kratos during the time gap between 3 & 4 and that the writers are hacks if they don't address it in the inevitable sequel.
>And this is not worth talking about?
not if you don't understand it, as he doesn't.
he just likes certain things and judges them on that merit, while dismissing others as "not working", when its clearly working for plenty of people.
at least he's not hamster who literally got mad before and started arguments in the yt comments because people called him out
Liberals are spiritually dead, mentally inept and morally retarded so even if they are ever "right" it's worthless because they came to the conclusion serendipitously for the wrong reasons.
Yea Forums is very anti-semitic even though it's not allowed on 4channel.
inuitinua is kino
i have her nudes
>and it would've done wonders for killing the game too, making it even more barren.
...Players are going to ignore them because they become little more than annoyances later in the game. This has been a staple of video games forever. Look at Far Cry 2, look at Shadow of Chernobyl; if the military continuously occupied the collapsed bridge separating Sidorovich's area from the rest of the Cordon after you've already dispatched them, it would be fucking ridiculous to constantly pause and kill them between trips.
Gonna quote matt like a good boot licker here, but you're kinda moving the goal post if you say playing something like sh2 is "fun", you can look back on it and think it was fun because it was scary but in the moment to moment it's not designed to be "fun". Maybe satisfying and exciting but that's not the same thing as fun.
>even if liberals are right, they're wrong
I won't tell you to quit the redpills, because you're probably dependent on them now. But at least try cut back a little.
If you watch any "professional" reviewer then you're just an idiot and deserve what you get.
Its a fucking video game. You play it, you experience it, you see the things that work for you and you see the things that don't. Then you move on.
Only faggots keep debating over this shit anyway, and those who do it FOR someone else's experience is even worse.
Who, mecha? Pretty sure most of his viewerbase is Yea Forums.
Most of his videos are just super reductive lists of the game's content rather than analyses of what the games do in a coherent manner.
How can a painter be so skilled but also get dimensions so wrong? That's what I'd like to know
anderson is a classic autist, the kind who feels they are smart for basic analysis. must be an atheist too.
I'm not moving anything. SH2 was one of the most fun games I've ever played.
I loved every minute of it.
I love the exploration and progression of it and the camera perspective making it tense.
>most of his viewerbase is Yea Forums
That would surprise me as Yea Forums only seems to like unoriginal memeshit like Sseth
Describes Sargoy's 2 videos accurately.
You talk like its actually happening when its literally not the case because BOTW is build around playing around with its systems, which camps provide the perfect opportunity to.
Most players calling it one of the best games ever do exactly that. Whataboutism to some fundamentally different games in other genres don't do you any good user.
I'd be impressed if they were actually her.
I mean, if you truly feel that i can't take it away from you but i think it's fair to say that when someone creates a game, film or even book with the purpose of truly terrifying and scaring the audience they don't envision them gleefully having a grand time through it.
Honest question, how long has you been on Yea Forums? Please answer truthfully, no one is judging you.
How does matthew live off his meager patreon bux?
>Why are you insinuating the review was solely about
I'm not and i've specially said this isn't the case, just that nebulous general thoughts on the game and what it represents has become his focus to the detriment of specifics. How he can do A BOTW review and not even talk about the repetitiveness of the shrines for example (particularly combat shrines) is beyond me. Some of his points such as indirectly excusing the severe lack of enemy variety because each one can do more stuff than other games isn't very convincing either because most of that stuff is just gimmicks, it ignores the world building having more enemies gives and zelda combat has always been lackluster so arguing it's probably about as much as previous games isn't an excuse for the game itself.
I haven't really memorized most of his talking points in his recent videos as I only watch them once and haven't been particularly impressed enough with any of them for them to leave an impression on me.
His videos are more about what the game "represents" instead of giving an analysis of what the game is anymore.
Are you telling me you didn't skip one single outpost?
Too long
How much money does he make for each video?
I think he said he has a lot of savings. Maybe his sister-wife-thingy is working a dayjob.
I think that's where you're wrong, because at least Japanese devs always put engaging gameplay and game design first.
And that is inherently fun for a lot of people.
No, really, in years. Because you should remember that Mecha was super popular on Yea Forums a few years ago.
That doesn't even matter for the point you were making.
Not that guy, but I don't think I ever did.
what are you referring to?
I remember him being mentioned now and then but I wouldn't say he was ever SUPER popular. Always felt like there were a handful of fans but not much else.
Sseth however released a video and there were suddenly about 10 threads made just for it. And he's shit.
what's the point of making up lies about e-celebs? is it just autism or something?
Only insecure cucks actually need reviewers.
Only brainlets actually need to play the game
No one needs reviewers. Some just happen to be interesting to watch.
I don't know much of the development of SH or SH2 but i do recall Kojima stating that he wanted to make a game that will make you "shit your pants from fear" with PT. I'd like to believe SH2 had a similar design ideology since i find it way scarier. Again, if you find this fun, more power to you, you're cooler than me. but, i'd call that a different emotion from "fun".
Warned white people that there will be consequences after NZ attack. Lack of awareness of what happens almost every week.
If people didn't get some kind of enjoyment out of the horror they wouldn't play it. People who don't enjoy horror don't play horror games or watch horror movies etc. If horror in and of itself was enjoyable then most horror movies would essentially be snuff films.
Still hoping he does that LISA video he said he might make. I hope he still lurks and sees this.
This, but people actually making threads and debating other people's experiences on virtual toys must be the most cucked thing ever.
Not an argument
Small apartments in Dublin roam around 1000 euro. Considering his gf works and they moved to a cheaper place i could see it being very possible.
Do you have Devil Daggers? Look up his replay. The cheating twat.
He did mention the repetitiveness of combat shrines and the lack of visual variety, and he did mention there should be more enemies.
You are just butt hurt he doesn't cry like an infant for two hours about irrelevant nitpicks.
He's irish
Why are you on Yea Forums then?
>How he can do A BOTW review and not even talk about the repetitiveness of the shrines for example
He did though? He just didn't whine about it for 20 minutes like Anderson, and actually had other stuff to say regarding shrines as well. Maybe you should go rewatch the video instead of being a total numpty.
don't blame the artist, the paper is just old
Who's the trap?
i'm unironically butthurt he called BOTW a return to zelda 1 because it shows he fundamentally misunderstands what zelda 1 was. BOTW has no structure and he played this off as a positive because he's a pretentious potato nigger who just likes that it was the antithesis of twilight princess.
I think you're the one misunderstanding what Zelda 1 was. What did you think it was trying to do?
Boogie
So you are just butthurt and want people to cry about botw, good to know nothing you say has any value.
>i'm unironically butthurt he called BOTW a return to zelda 1
Not that user but he mentioned it was lacking compared to Zelda 1 in numerous ways. I think he’s more happy what BotW means for the future titles.
Ever since you added the Danganronpa bit, you’ve been based.
>whine
you mean actually add substance to his observations and not have his priorities ass backwards. he praises botw gimmicks in depth and glances over crucial flaws.

Gimmicks aren't a bad thing, and flaws don't have to be all that important.
Did Botw fuck your mother or something?
You're a real numptysaurus
Matthew is unironically, unequivocally, undeniably and inarguably based, chad, and /ourguy/
I will not hear anything to the contrary from you bitter lowlives
Somecallmejohnny is a cool guy
He literally said in the video that the game has too much openness and would benefit from a more structured design rather than giving you full 100% freedom at all times to just skip interesting challenges
yea, most people here get their opinions from here
In a way eceleb reviews are a blessing because it's the best chance we have pf people here actually considering hearing an opinion that isn't just parroting Yea Forums consensus
His nick is in the video, Matthewmatosis. Clearly cheating, and to get a score that's not even all that impressive, what a fagtron.
500+ are scrutinized and banhammered, that's why he didn't go that high
>SOULS GAMES GOOD GAMEPLAY
>NIOH GAMEPLAY BAD
Yeah, fuck this guy.
>Gimmicks aren't a bad thing
I never claimed they were. the gimmicks or "attention to detail" are all good, they just lack substance and only serve to reinforce "muh freedom" which itself doesn't serve any engaging purpose because the game lacks structure. You can go anywhere, do anything when there isn't much of anything of substance to do. The only part of the game done right is how shrines are hidden, but after you discover them the shrines themselves and the rewards aren't very engaging or rewarding. The game critically needed more things of substance to find and more things of substance to do (which would most easily be applied to better combat) there is no incentive to do anything in botw than to experience a cute gimmick. it really needed the beasts to be full fledged dungeons for example and added more items you don't all get at once, even if this does come at the cost of "freedom"
out of context, he spins this as a positive regardless as if nintendo made "the right compromise" and fails to see the significance of how much it would benefit from structure and how much of a detriment it is to the game. there is absolutely no incentive to take out enemy camps in novel ways besides sandbox "fun" that only has any real value if you want to record it and put in on youtube or something.
why is the hole so big but the slice so small
>he called BOTW a return to zelda 1
That is not what you think it means when he said that
How can Anderson even compete?

sauce
He l i t e r a l l y said he doesn’t like the climbing and it should be ditched because it allows you to break too many setpiexes
Straight up the biggest source of freedom in the game that everyone else praised to high heaven, he said should be outright removed
What the fuck are you on about my dude
I'll be honest. I only watch these e-celeb critiques to use their videos as white noise for sleep.
Who're your favorite e-celebs to have a comfy night's rest to Yea Forums?
Ross
A game lacking structure is not inherently bad, and the freedom it gives is much better than anything a linear structure could possibly give.
You massively overestimate the value of structure, it would make the game dull and people like you just want a retread of OOT
Ross is too pure for this cursed place.
What are the odds that the best serious review channel on youtube and the best comedy review channel on youtube would be by different people born and raised the same city in Ireland? Are the Irish, dare I say it... based?
>trying to sleep to ross' ultra loud, grating voice
he's not too pure to sing me a lullaby
The Irish are fine, not really based or not, they're nice enough. Almost everyone's negative association with them is because of Irish Americans

didn't I tell you not to respond to me brainlet? Go play minecraft
> he said should be outright removed
i'm almost certain this isn't the case. his point was that he wanted you to be able to go anywhere but climbing (and gliding) was overpowered and too easy. He wanted you to work harder to get places. IE make it more tedious for the same of more immersion and presumed reward. climb small to get to big mountains and encourage use of horses etc.
you lost nothing of value, the fanboys in the comment sections of the OP guy will give you cancer
He never said anything even close to this,
watch the videos. it's a better use of your time than this board.
>IE make it more tedious for the same of more immersion and presumed reward
that's just fucking retarded
second part was meant for of course
Well, why should anybody let an autistic fuck like you post on Yea Forums unmolested?
>>Have browsed 400 post threads a few times and STILL don't know
Yeah you're a lying faggot considering Yea Forums has been talking about these two for years.
Nah don't bother mate. It's just a massive circlejerk.
You're better off just playing vidya.
>Have browsed 400 post threads a few times and STILL don't know
I'm going to press X to doubt
Yea Forums might be shit but it will never be as bad as 7 fucking hours of Fallout 4 "analyses".
He probably didn't like DMC5 so he's a faggot.
watch matthewmatosis not josephanderson
>Yea Forums might be shit but it will never be as bad as 7 fucking hours of Fallout 4 "analyses".
That's better than a thousand of fuck niggers and based since at least it actually involves games.
What the fuck are you guys talking about? I just watched his replay and it was completely legit.
lmfao becoming the game journos he mocked
Do you have a link? I want to watch that
The worst part is long Form analysis makes a lot of sense for games, a often long medium.
But only of you have enough to say to fill that time, but those length=intelligence morons are ruining it for everybody
I can see where he is coming from, he often goes on about how games are often supposed to not be conventionally enjoyable. BOTW probably would be more fulfilling and intellectually more interesting to navigate with nerfed gliding and climbing but you would need a lot more alternatives for movement besides the horse. it's weird he mentions the horse is underutilized because there isn't enough incentive to use it but doesn't think all the gimmicky ways you have to kill enemy camps, or do side quests, or shrines etc etc is particularly non incentivized. the whole game could be an analogy for the horse.
you watched the whole thing? enabled the timer?
Then why not make a Fallout 4 thread yourself?
I'm sure some autists will bump your thread for free with pictures of modded monstrosities that were once women.
That way you can actually reply to people, instead of just passively listening.
Leave everything in the known universe to me
>kamiya purist
Meh
In this case though there is no incentive to use the horse mostly because climbing + gliding is simply the better option in every single situation.
The incentive should come from the player, but the horse just can't compete with climbing.
Climbing is so OP is almost replaces several other systems in botw, that's why he said it should be heavily nerfed.
When's The Daily Schmooze ep. 2 you balding fuck
>I can see where he is coming from, he often goes on about how games are often supposed to not be conventionally enjoyable.

this is your brain on Matt
she's cute. I like the tired look.
>4:16
This. Anderson's videos are way, way, way too fucking long. Like, for example, there were few things I disagreed with in his God of War or Super Mario Odyssey videos, but I really felt no reason why they had to be 3 and 2 hours long respectively.
I get that he wants to use a lot of examples to reinforce his point, but what he could have done to trim down time was pick the strongest examples and leave the other examples for an appendix video, sort of like how he did that extra "How Long Did You Spend Watching the 'You Got A Moon!' Animation During Mario Odyssey?" video for Super Mario Odyssey to further reinforce his points on that ame.
If he kept his videos to 30 minutes at most, then I'm sure a lot more people (including game developers) would take more notice of him. It doesn't matter how good your ideas are. You need to find ways to express your ideas in the most succinct way possible, and Anderson often fails to do that.
Who do all these autistic faggots have to do videos where I'm forced to listen to their awful voices? And no, I ain't going to bother with their scripts.
I just want to read some shit and maybe see some screenshots.
you neglect gliding which he said just and does impact the game just as much
>The incentive should come from the player
not really, the incentive should be reasonable and not reaching. If the game is difficult getting orbs for heart pieces becomes immediately much more impactful. Same goes for taking out enemy camps in novel ways.
an observation even anderson pointed out, is that the most enjoyable way to play BOTW is to skip as much content as possible, doing the near minimum to experience the game before it gets repetitive. You do just enough shrines to say, get the master sword. do no side quests, kill a lionel cook a little bit of food, do some "neat" stuff like parrying the guardian laser and utilizing lighting rods, take out the disappointing beats and finish up the game asap. Botw falls apart when you try to indulge in the game and master it/be a completionist and is at it's best when you just run through it casually.
why does he go out of his way to sound like a twat in his reviews when he clearly has a normal manner of speech as this video proves?
Then read actual game design articles, developer blogs and stuff like critpoints you faggot what are you doing wasting time watching youtubers drone on about the latest nintendo shit
Yes. He survived the biggipedes and died while the huge spawner was active. He also barely jumped, I noticed.
The problem is his way of usigg examples is fucking retarded as shit.
I have never heard a real, normal and well adjusted person complain about the moon animations, and a purposefully made video to make them seem more annoying than they are is not changing anything.
Just like Matt said in his Zelda review, just making a list and comparing while pretending it matters as a real experience is not a rational argument, just fucking stupid.
See this is what I mean, not one of you even told me who these dumb fuckers are. This is exactly how this has always happened and you just proved it right to my face.
Eat a dick
anderson isn't trying to express his ideas he's trying to break down every part of the game, which he's very hit or miss at. You don't need to watch all at once, he would benefit from timestamps and better/more distinct use of "chapters" to separate what he is talking about.
>why do these autistic faggots expect me to listen to their voices
Then just read their-
>And no, I ain't going to bother with their scripts
Your parents must have suffered
I did mention gliding, can you even read?
The rest of your argument is just as retarded, reading and listening comprehension don't seem your strength.
>AVGN
>Not aproved
Fuck off
> can you even read?
can you? I said you neglect gliding, not that you neglect to mention it. Your closing statement is "climbing is so OP" climbing is your focus, when gliding is at least as OP if not more so.
Climbing and gliding in botw are basically part of the same traversal system, do you really need people to constantly write it out to remember?
Okay but in all seriousness, memes aside, who's an actual good critique to watch?
>Anderson's videos are too long
And here's why. The man has never heard the definition of brevity.
They are distinct mechanics that complement each other. You can't just nerf climbing and think this will be enough in itself to make gliding fine.

I've tracked Matt's stuff for well on five years at this point and his latest stuff seems lacking, the GoW video being the only notable exception. Is it just me feeling this?
Mechagamezilla's Infinite Review
Matt says some vague subjective bullshit, Hamsterson dissects in order to utterly btfo it and cause nintentoddlers the most ass damage. Can easily see who's more based
Anderson just goes into how this impacts the game with specific examples, matt not doing this isn't a good thing.
More like Matt literally gets straight to the point and doesnt fuck around with meaningless anecdotes and fluff, while Anderson jerks himself off for 40 minutes at a time because he loves the sound of his own voice.
Never forget he loved botw to bits and considers it one of the best games ever made.
What's the point of these videos?
Agree, his most recent videos have been borderline unwatchable for me.
There is such a thing as meaningless detail, you know. Anderson's problem is that he takes entire pages to explain things that can be just as accurately hammered in by a mere sentence or two. This is exactly what the picture is demonstrating.
I fucking love how autistic the dragon gets. Don't really care much about his opinion but the way he presents it gets people so assblasted that it's always just a treat reading the horrid youtube comment section of his videos. The BotW and Odyssey ones were a treat for the eyes.
Yeah let's just go for maximum brevity and describe it as "clunky" or "janky" now that's critique lmao
And Nintendo fatties are still raging despite that
This post really shows who the people are who need professional reviewers: the kind of person who just hides behind those reviews and uses them to ""btfo"" people everytime they like something they don't like.
The Infinite Review
Why is this off topic thread still up?
Who's better at video games?
>Yeah let's just go for maximum brevity and describe it as "clunky" or "janky" now that's critique lmao
you should look up the definition of "strawman", then get back to me.
>something they don't like.
it's always insecure brainlets who cope with this relativism argument. "I had fun so fuck you!!!! i'm not dumb for liking kusoge people have different taste!! fucking elitists!!"
HAHAHAHAHA
oh fuck now this is how you know Hamsterson's vids were effective, they managed to turn Nintendorks against the concept of reviews themselves
Hello Hamsterson fan boy.
The fact that you even use those fanboy terms just means hamsterson has never made an intelligent argument in his life and people just like him for console war reasons.
Just admit it. Before his Odyssey review nobody cared about him, and now nobody cares about him outside of it.
>matt litterrly calls flurry rush activations "weird"
>somehow a strawman to call this the equivalent of clunky/janky
to be fair matt did it first with dota 2, bioshock infinite and dark souls 2
Jesus Christ all the dick sucking ITT.
Why does Nu-Yea Forums worship e-celebs?
From what I've seen joseph is like a fucking robot when it comes to games.
This video made me laugh a lot but it turns my stomach knowing people really ate that shit
That's not a strawman that's the logical end point to your "muh brevity" position. If Hamsteron's flaw according to the pic is that he fills his reviews with unnecessary bullshit then Matt's flaw is the opposite - he leaves out valuable info like how the mechanic is implemented and leaves only the kind of vague subjective shit you'd see in the average IGN review.
Matthewmatosis has been liked since 2014 or so, nothing new at all
>The Sphere Hunter's the only gaming youtuber I need. And yes, I subbed to her Patreon early on.
>2014 isn't nu Yea Forums
nu Yea Forums was gamergate retard
>pic is that he fills his reviews with unnecessary bullshit then Matt's flaw is the opposite - he leaves out valuable info like how the mechanic is implemented and leaves only the kind of vague subjective shit you'd see in the average IGN review.
This makes no sense. You can't just say: "if Joeseph does a bad thing... that means Matt does the opposite bad thing!!!!!", you fucking retard. Matt hits a sweetspot, where he tells you just as much as you need to know to understand his complaint, without droning on about random bullshit for 50 minutes like Anderson does.
>her
Imagine watching e-celebs when you can just pirate the game to form your own opinion.
L M A O
review my cum you slut
Yeah and it seemed like he had more fun doing those than the shit he does now, even though his new videos are done on games he supposedly loves there's no enthusiasm.
I prefer Joseph Anderson desu
Joseph
>I'll admit, I first got into her channel because of how cute she is. But the content of her videos won me over and partnering with a wonderful artist like Dross was a great move.
It's a tranny.
From what I remember hamsterton fought the final valkyrie in nuGoW at the highest most autistic difficulty.
very low IQ post. he is arguing against brevity as a principle, and of making matt the antithesis of anderson. He would likely reject your stance that "Matt hits a sweetspot" as well, as I would particularly regarding his more recent videos.
Do you need to see the circle walking webm again?
Yikes imagine having reading comprehension this and not understanding I'm talking in the context of the pic and what it's trying to demonstrate. But if you have to infer what exactly he means by "weird activation window" then he fucked up his purpose since it's the same shit you can read on IGN. Why have hour long videos full of tangents if you're not going to actually break down anything in detail?
mario odyssey is so bad he had to turn his brain off and go autopilot to tolerate it. He does it fine right after.
It's wild how the autist insults aren't even Yea Forums's typical tossing around of the word. The man cannot comprehend metaphor or allegory as meaningful and gets incited into a rage at trying to understand personal connections.
He's good but the way Yea Forums slobbers over him is disgusting.
Yeah, totally.
Everybody believes you.
Actually proof doesn't matter, but a random anecdote does.
Just admit Hamsterson is a skilless retard, it won't hurt you.
>2014
Kill yourself
People here have already said who they are. I don't need to spoonfeed you.
Matt did a full, no hit, S-rank, run of Devil May Cry on the highest difficulty. A game that was infamous for its difficulty.
>metaphor or allegory as meaningful
they unironically aren't meaningful in themselves. they are heuristic devices to better communicate substance. I don't know if those are the terms you intended of if you were referring to some vague transcendental philosophical merit as opposed to purely mechanical analysis.
>Playing at high difficulty is autistic
Nu-Yea Forums is cringe
The Infinite Review
With a fully upgraded character.
>debating about other people's opinions
This will always be the most cringe you can see on Yea Forums
what? it's a clip from a longer stream and he does it right after and laughs about it. he went auto-pilot because he doesn't respect the game enough to be anything other than the most baby of baby shit.
Kirby has kind of always been mediocre but enjoyable
Then prove it.
Because we know exactly what happened, he is just a no skill shitter.
For him to express his opinions and to spark a discussion, furthering video games as a whole.
joe can’t run a circle
This is what zoomer cancer does to this board.
They can't think for themselves.
And then why should we take his opinions seriously if he can't even play the game like a normal person?
unironically the infinite review. watch from the first one as there are some good running jokes.
>opinions
most "opinions" aren't actually opinions but unsubstantiated beliefs. It's more making fun of people that actually trying to prove someone wrong or find the truth anyway.
This is by far the most superficial vidya "reviewer" on youtube. He says even less substantial stuff than snoman gaming.
90% of Yea Forums really has this guy's dick in their mouth? Pathetic.
he did play the game like a normal person. He explains that the game is baby shit with the peaches castle example pretending it's early game stuff when it's late game. The game doesn't expect you to have any intelligence or motor skills.
Shut up faggot.
I love arlo because he's literally a toddlers sesame street puppet reviewing nintendo games and being super careful not to make anyone upset. It's like pottery.
Cope
Whih he can't prove because he is incapable of running in a circle.
He is the most retarded player I have ever seen, and I have watched DPS before.
Faggot
Jim Sterling isn’t made for a lot of things, like having a monogamous wife.
Sometimes he makes okay points (you guys are blowing “censorship” a bit out of proportion, konami bad) but generally it’s a very basic takeaway for how much of the episode is invariably spent on posturing
Do you play with your eyes closed?
Is that the argumentative strength of Hamsterson fans?
Man, you sure showed me.
Just admit he is a brainlet, it won't hurt you.
Making excuses for his retardation is not a good look
Has he really said anything worthwhile though? I might be giving Yea Forums way too much credit but despite this place being a cesspool the handful of actual discussion here is pretty alright so most of the shit these e -celebs say just seem like more shallow retreadings of the conversations in this board.
Who else /civvie11/ here?
>Highest difficulty in a mainstream game
It's fucking nothing.
>his RE4 stream was supposed to be Sin & Punishment 2 but he didn't have batteries for wiimote
been on Yea Forums for 4 years and have never heard discussion that didnt immediatey devolve into green-texting and insults. Yea Forums is only good for jokes and memes.
watch the videos yourself, i think they’re truly insightful and well put together.
Don't be that guy.
Then you've been in the wrong threads mate
>4 years
Jesus fucking christ.
It's funny how fucking mad people on Yea Forums get at the thought of anyone here getting information from any other source whatsoever, as if you could ever find out anything valuable or hear an interesting take by exclusively using Yea Forums.
>been on Yea Forums for 4 years
No wonder all these eceleb shilling threads get so much traction.
no, i haven’t. discussion in Yea Forums comes down to reaction images in hopes of baiting anger, green-texting and missinterpreting other peoples comments and oversimplifying opinions to the point where they mean nothing. If you truly like video games, you need to learn that Yea Forums is absolutely worthless when it comes to sharing and discussing videogames.
It’s golden for goofing around tho.
And this is why Yea Forums has gone to shit. Faggots like you.
>4 years
Yet you think your opinion holds any merit
Because ND games are neither fun nor enjoyable
get out
this post made me realize how long i've been here for
this shouldn't be happening
No wonder we constantly get retards here trying jerk off literal whos like fagtosis. The same people who can't even be bothered to actually dig for the small moments of interesting discourse this board has. If Yea Forums is for goofing around then I can only dread that you'reagod damn ledditor who thinks this place is just a LE EPIC TROLL FORUM XDDD.
>AVGN
>Even though he's the only person to ever get un-cucked
He'll forever be kino
only us who are on Yea Forums for 12+ years can have an opinion
Didn't he end up liking the new Ghostbusters movie?
I will never get Yea Forums's weird meme relationship with James.
Uncucked then cucked again by his Screenwave masters.
newfags like yourself will never understand that if you started using Yea Forums at a particular point, you will never not be a newfag because the nature of the site has fundamentally changed (twice) and you will have no reference
>dude the discourse is good you just gotta wade through 6000 what did he mean by this threads
Yes? What is your problem with that?
it's considered an unrealistic expectation to newfags when it's "normal" to those who aren't newfags. Like having blonde hair and blue eyes are a prerequisite to being white.
Of course you wouldn't know where to find it because all of you mouthbreathers are too busy sucking eceleb cock instead of playing vidya. Just yesterday we had a godly Pathologic thread but I doubt you even know what that game is. Yea Forums still has its magic and fags like you certainly aren't contributing to it.
Because he's reading from a script that he has probably rewritten 15 times to make all of his points as clinical and clear as possible. He makes a lot of jokes in editing though, but if you aren't actually watching the visuals it's understandable you might think he's super 110% serious face all the time.
i do tho
which one?
WHERE IS IT MATT?
>Pathologic
>good

it has lewds if you feel so inclined to look but i wouldn't recommend it. "Sue Lightning" is the only morsel i will spoon you.

Matt doesn't like weebshit
quit huffing memes for two minutes and maybe you won't embarrass yourself again in future
>super careful about not making people upset
FUCK KIRBY AND FUCK METROID
>He is also scared of being labeled a "negative reviewer" which makes some of his stuff seem disingenuous.
Not at all?
>4 years
Holy cow. Don't get me wrong, that's plenty of Yea Forums for any human's lifetime, but you made me feel terrible about being in here since 09.
It's r63 ya dingus
except he is a massive weeb and just doesn't let people know that outsdie of his streams. We know he loves SMT, Xenosaga and the aforementioned Etrian Odyssey and even teased to doing a retrospecitive,
>dude why doesn't he just shit on everything mercilessly
There are already a million channels like that and they're all fucking boring. I'm glad someone can talk about what they like and dislike about each game without framing it as NEW GAME BAD
Some of his videos are great but some of them feel like he's just saying something simply to make content. The Rain World video really felt like the later.
Way for person with no real talent to make money on the side
>he spins this as a positive regardless
Of course he did, that's why he says one of the best parts of the game are the route to Zora's Domain and that it was a mistake that the player can completely miss it
>2014 Isn't newfag-tier
Bro, just neck yourself.
Main issue is that every critic like this only makes videos about literal children's games. I understand there's value to have expertise in something, but is there clearly not a market for game critiques on titles not released by nintendo and sony? Like review an fps for christ sake.
That's because he just wanted to recommend the game to people.
People will say
>4 years
But they were here around the same time. As someone who's been here 13 years. You are objectively correct
He was actually way nicer toward the game than I am and it was my GOTY too.
Weird how that works out.
I think he did a poor job of it.
Leave decent length, honest and unbiased, and ACTUAL gaming reviews with both positive and negative reviews and opinions to me.
He had a weirdly condemnatory review video but he really raved about it on twitter. desu I do tend to forget just how frustrating the first two hours of Rain World are, because everything that came after blew me away.
I do wish he'd explained why he thought you shouldn't start with Monk, though (not least because I haven't played since the update).
>Xenosaga
Didn't he say he wasn't a fan of Xeno stories? Or was that just for Xenoblade?
Where did he say he liked Xenosaga?
having emotions is fun
when people start using "engaging" it sounds so pretentious
like those poeple that say "it's not a comic, it's a graphic novel!"
The Rain World video is pretty lightweight since he's so autistic about spoilers, and that game is all about exploration and discovery. He doesn't even show off anything beyond the immediate starting area and even then just faffs about with some dumb lizards at most, the part at which a lot of people drop the game (including him previously). I'd like to see him do an actual proper review since he evidently liked the game and has things to say about it.
Guy seems pretty milquetoast to me. Like you'd watch his shit because it's the most inoffensive and non-incendiary opinions of all time.
but a comic and a graphic novel are two different things you dunce
Because that game is the new SJW menace and everything ND means an attack on straight white males
This. I only like clickbait. Where are the HOT TAKES Matt? If you're not stirring shit up then why say anything?
You jest but it's true. At most he'll just say maybe one or two interesting things about the mechanics of the game but beyond that you're better off just actually playing the game yourself because it's pretty much the same thing.
oh looked it up
Graphic Novel is usually a one-hot, while the comic book is periodical
well, I am retarded one on that, sorry
It's such a rare treat to see someone admit they got something wrong instead of just doubling down on it. Bless you, user.
Americans, take note.

Christ, I've been here 10 and I still feel like a massive newfag
What games could I cover like this fag does Yea Forums? Something like his Devil May Cry Commentary
idk, what games have you completed more than 10 times and read interviews with the development team?
I didn't know Shinji reviewed games. Please don't tell me there's a youtuber that just has this as a profile picture.
Do The Last Guardian but be nice.
Id do Final Fight because it not only served as a blueprint for the genre that would develop into the DMC style games we see today but also aged remarkably well. But if you dont have a game you are passionate about that you can easily discuss and are good at then why force it?
nah he's a blade secondary
