I dont get the criticism against these pro-consumer channels. It wasnt even 3 years ago when everyone in gaming was bitching about bait advertising and overcharging.
Now some fucks are up on youtube actively pointing this shit out and the reaction, "hurrrr just looking for attention".
My questions is, which one is it? Did you want anti-consumer behavior to pointed out or nah?
If yes, then why demonise youtubers/journalists exposing it?
If no, what alternative were you looking for?
I don't need it as I have a working brain. I can make my own judgement. I don't need to be stirred up into a collective hate bandwagon.
The hate comes from 99% of them literally reading outloud a news article from somewhere else while panning out as much as they can to reach the 10 minute mark and get that sweet ad revenue.
It's not bad they are pro-consumer, it's bad they take 15 minutes to explain something that should take 2 at most
How are they pro consumer?
why are discord trannies obsessed with making threads about this guy?
Hardly the point being made here.
But then you guys also demonise someone like crowbcat for still doing comparison videos. And Im sure there are other channels that probably do take about 2mins explain everything. They also get shit on.
This, they could do all that shit in two minutes. Also kill yourself OP you reddit spacing shill double nigger.
He fucking got his ass kicked by one haha oh god what the fuck
I don't watch lazy article-reading videos, but I'm all for somebody calling out anti-consumer behavior. That's the way a capitalist economy is supposed to work - self-regulated by the consumers.
By informing potential game buyers on what they can expect from a certain game rather than solely trusting dev announcements like in the past?
I used this guy only because he seems to be the most viewed youtuber in the topic
They aren't. He just pays Hiro to not delete his self advertising threads.
It's not his subject matter that's the problem (for me, I'm sure the trannies disagree), it's how cringe and clickbaity he is. His vids are also too long and too numerous and he tends to beat topics into the ground that way. He also can be a spineless cuck in regards to his opinion, especially when he shittalks other people.
When people do the horseshoe meme, this is the kind of guy they're talking about.
Also, his voice/the way he speaks is annoying but I realize that he might not be able to do anything about that.
>muh goobergate at-right cuck channels
>By informing potential game buyers on what they can expect from a certain game rather than solely trusting dev announcements like in the past?
But he has an agenda and is biased?
Also
>most viewed youtuber
>
Which is why its a bit confusing when you see threads bashing pro-consumer channels.
Interesting. I was wondering if you could give me an example of who is a more 'credible' pro-consumer voice then.
I just wanna compare with whats on youtube already.
This guy unironically looks like the type who flashes women in the parking lot.
>believing any sane person talks like that publicly
>all tweets on the same day
You trannies really are fucking bonkers.
>*read article aloud*
>"uh yeah like okay I mostly agree but also fuck sjws"
>thanks for watching support me on patreon, buy my merch...you don't want those dumb liberals to win, right?
On the one hand, good for you. Make easy money. But on the other hand fuck right off. You deserve to be mocked.
Im not defending the guy since I dont know who he is. I genuinely stumbled on this drama a week ago. I kept getting his videos recommended so I checked em out. And then got recommended some videos countering his and most pro-consumer youtubers points.
>makes videos against magic the gathering
>literally has a giant neon sign of the magic the gathering logo in the background of his videos
Honestly, I can't think of anyone.
I watch Jim Sterling but he's essentially the lefty equivalent of this guy (and a huge fag) but at least he does other stuff, and his clickbait strategy and voice aren't nearly as obnoxious.
There's nothing wrong with calling out anti-consumer practices, especially if it's coming from the consumers. However, there is something wrong with calling out the same anti-consumer behavior in 3 separate 10 minute videos posted with clickbait titles over the course of a week, each adding nothing new to the conversation and which are essentially copy-pasting the most upvoted opinions from reddit. That is not acting in aid of a pro-consumer cause, it's leeching youtube ad revenue off it.
>I don't know who he is
He's a fake gamer outrage fag who switches to whatever nerd hobby he can to try and make money off of right wind outrage culture. He did similar with MTG. He has never been a big vidya gamer, he has previously said he doesn't play games and does not have the time to play them, and all the shit in his background is awful garbage bought off ebay or amazon just to look cool and give him the vibe of being some oldfag.
He did similar shit in MTG. Didn't actually play the game, didn't attend tournaments etc and then began attacking booth babes Wizards hired and got basically kicked out of the community for it.
He is an opprotunist. Why should I like him?
>"I will now spend 15 minutes regurgitating an article that's already been published 90 times and remind you that the SJWs are behind every bad thing that has ever happened to anyone ever. By the way please remember to like, donate, and subscribe to me on Twitter, Patreon, and Facebook. It really helps keep the lights on when Youtube is silencing us"
Yea but 95% of shit is catered to the majority and casual market so these channels are good for spreading it to the normies.
I don't support radicalization as I am not a psychopath.
