Do we like him?

>his idea of a good game is a big budget action-adventure for consoles

You fucking what? Have you listened to him in the past decade?

Funnier and more insightful/concise than people like Joseph Anderson and Matthew Matosis. ZP peaked years ago but his videos are still worth watching.
Differently Morphous=Will Save the Galaxy for Food>Mogworld>Jam.

That is completely the opposite of what he wants. He wants games with experimental gameplay and focus on narrative. It's why Return of the Obra Dinn was his favorite game of 2018, he can't stand playing the same cliched AAA thing over and over again.

Dude I can't remember the last time he liked a game like what you described. He hates Asscreed, he hated RDR and RDR2, Horizon Zero Dawn, Days Gone, etc. He mostly praises unique Indy games and Fromsoft stuff.

I watch his videos regularly.
I like his content because I think he does a decent job of conveying that what he says is just his opinion. He isn't trying to throw on some objective score out of 10 to rate the game, he just says what he thought when he played it.
This means he can be pretty free about shitting on certain genres because he just doesn't enjoy them while not having to grit his teeth and pretend their okay because "they're just not for him".

He detests Ubishit sandboxes and JRPGs as much as I do, plus he's hilarious. Based

Daily reminder that Let's Drown Out is finished and is never coming back.

>idea of a good game is a big budget action-adventure for consoles

Greetings citizen from the mirror universe.

One of the best out there

I remember laughing my ass off so much at some of his older content. Haven't kept up with his videos over the past year.

>I can't form my own opinions without a group of people backing me up!

I think he's great.
Looking forward to see what other games he makes this year.

They've done very different content.

That's not very nice of you to say user.

How about having your own opinion? I not always agree with him, but the fact that he is still doing content after all those years is pretty impressive

yahtzee isn't insightful at all
in fact, he really has nothing of value to say; he's just an amusing asshole

>He also thinks that RPGs and strategies are for cowards because cowards are afraid of mashing X to takedown the enemy, it seems.
I'm not sure if he was so serious when he said that, but it's been so long since I've heard that part.

He's also been critical of mashing x to takedown, i think there's a batman video where he says "press x to kick ass", mocking the game

Used to, but haven't watched him in years. He's just a typical British fedora who isn't all that good at video games. Like his Monster Hunter review where he was too dumb to get passed the tutorial, or his Samus Returns review where he couldn't figure out to try the Aeon beam on the grey sponge aliens.

>does not chew on every fucking point for 10 minutes ala "here is an example just a little sample"
>even if he is sperging some stupid shit it's not that big of a deal
>called Bethesda lazy fucks years ago
Yeah, he is alright, at this point I understand his point of view pretty well, so it's the same as your friend saying that Fable 2 is the best RPG of all time.
Also audio Mogworld is pretty decent as well
Also Hatfall is alright too I guess

all of them you fucking incel loser, so fucking stupid cant watch them yourself but youre a little fucking retard whos too daft to realise it, hate fucking niggers like you who cant think past anything because of your 30 iq brain

His books are just bad Terry Pratchett ripoffs, like every other British writer.

Think for yourself megafaggot.

>Complains that Samus returns is too retro and doesn't have enough story
>Praises Cuphead in the video despite it having even less innovative mechanics and even less story

He has no consistency.

Are we still 16?

Reviews fall somewhere on the spectrum of entertainment vs informational. Yahtzee is purely on the entertainment side. So with that in mind yes I do enjoy his content.

i don't understand his taste. spec ops the best of 2012?

you must be very intelligent with that well-constructed post of yours

Different games have different expectations and requirements of certain aspects.

good torrent sites for video games other then the bae?

He explained that, 2012 was a struggle to find games he'd call amazing so he said if he can't find a top spot on quality, he'd fill it with the game that most deserves to be played for other reasons.

rutracker
don't forget to type ENG

Yahtzee is at least alive

When his fundamental standards are that blatantly inconsistent, it's totally valid to question his judgement.

He's a high school dropout who married his stalker. I don't trust his decisions.

He coined the term PC master race, he's good here.

I like that he can keep his reviews consistently short and getting to the point while being funny.
It was thanks to him that I ended up playing pic related

Stop reminding me.

I do. I don't always agree with his opinions but at least its not the group think agenda pushing that you get from most "games journalists".

Yahtzee is so clever!

Still gives him more authority on the subject than 90% of Yea Forums

Differently Morphus is a bit high up on that list. Either way all his books are good.

>I made a birdhouse in shop class! I am a qualified architect!

>who married his stalker.
lul, it was fun to hear gabe and yahtzee talking about that, where Gabe was totally insinuating that while yahtzee just talked about how she didn't know who he was and then stumbled upon his book and videos.

Heard her talk once in a video and her voice was almost like something from an snl sketch of a dorky girl character, but when I saw her she was very cute

>in fact, he really has nothing of value to say; he's just an amusing asshole
exactly this

I’m genuinely enjoying his E3 videos going on right now, honest opinions combined with actually insightful interviews with people he’s crucified in the past (like Romero), it’s good stuff

She looks like his aunt.

>Low Tier God

>Too shit to get through an early level of Demon Souls
>Decided to actually play through Dark Souls because he kept getting told too
>Suddenly the biggest Dark Souls dickrider in the world. Praises the worldbuilding ect
Now how many games for him are still in that "Demon Souls is just smashing your head into a brick wall" view for him though? How can I trust his opinion when he's still the same person at his core unless the game is so popular that it forces him to play it through?

Yeah fuck Aaron

Nope, and it's like will never be seen again

I do find it cute that he is a critic who at least dared to try to release some silly games of his own (some even before becoming famous) and I think that anyone who has seen his old crappy duke nukem 3d mods etc, knows that he has at least some genuine autism inside him.

WOW SUCH A BANDWAGONER OPINIONS CAN NEVER CHANGE SADFWEFDSAZCSACAd::

Somewhat entertaining, but man he comes off as an effete twat when filming live, or podcasting etc.
His e3 coverage is pure cringe. Especially his "glance at the camera like it is an inconvenient interruption, say one line, look away as if he is pondering something far more important, repeat" routine.
He comes across as a bit of a faggot in all honesty.

You seem to be confusing engine programmers with game designers user. Game design isn't tool dependent, it's about making something fun.

Czho mythos is spooky

To be fair Demons Souls is very obtuse at the beginning. He should really go back and play it

Demon's Souls is actually shit-tier though

DaS = BB > DS3 > Sekiro > DS2 > DeS

The gripes he had with Demon Souls still exist in Dark Souls UNTIL HE WAS FORCED TO GIT GUD. This isn't even about how obtuse the beginning of Demon Souls was specifically
>I felt the best way to review Demon's Souls would be to simply describe my entire experience, so in conclusion, fuck you, Demon's Souls! A challenge is one thing, but trying to break down a fucking cement wall with your forehead isn't a challenge, it's grounds for getting fucking sectioned! Although I suppose succeeding in breaking the wall down will give a great sense of accomplishment, which is just as well, because you'll have lost all your other senses by then.

Retards might.

I just wanted to go into space

>Yahtzee at least has self awareness and isn't up his own ass with his own opinions.

I have no idea why the fuck you would believe that but rest assured that you are incorrect.

wow it's almost like Dark Souls gives you a compelling incentive to git gud whereas Demon's Souls just expects you to want to git gud for the sake of gitting gud

Well no shit, autismo, you don't seem to be remembering the times when Demon Souls came out, when there was a million games with inflated difficulty for the sake of it without being remotely fair or just bugged the fuck out.
But yeah, just because this one games is from some noname japs - you should totally keep on going and trying.
There is a reason Des regarded as DS-0 and most people don't remember it, regardless of it being a masterpiece or not.

He never could think of anything interesting to say in his LP's and mostly just mumbled through them in half-formed sentences. Gabe obviously didn't help with the charisma deficit in those videos.

All of his games are tutorial level. He's not some master designer.

How many games have you made?

He turned off the Metal Gear Rising soundtrack so Yea Forums will probably crucify him.

>you don't seem to be remembering the times when Demon Souls came out, when there was a million games with inflated difficulty for the sake of it without being remotely fair or just bugged the fuck out.

Feel free to start naming some notable examples from around that time. Because as far as I recall 2009 was right during the brown & bloom era of insipid games that any mongoloid could play, which made Demon's Souls stand out since it actually required a modicum of brainpower to be enjoyed.

only DSP is based

You know, this is actually why I like Yahtzee. Because among all his bs, he did once give a very good piece of advice I actually really liked and has helped me greatly.

It is FINISHING SHIT.

Mankind only remembers finished shit, not "projects" inside someone's mind. 10 bad/silly projects make you a more interesting person than 1 epic, perfect one nobody knows about, goes for 10 years and eventually give up upon.

The only games he seems to like nowadays are soulsborne and games that break the mold while also being good.

Alone in the Dark
Rogue warrior
Mind Jack

Resident evil 5

>Game has a simplistic story

Yahtzee hates it and complains about it being cliche. Talks big about wanting proper narrative and mechanics in his games

>Game has an in depth, detailed story

Yahtzee hates it and mocks it for being convoluted. Uses all the most eye-rolling cliches possible about why JRPGs are bad and why cRPGs aren't much better

>Game has literally zero story, just gives you a gun and tells you to shoot the bad things

Yahtzee spends the entire video jacking it off, telling you how amazing it is, telling you why it's the most fun game he's played in a decade and a criminally underrated gem. Unless it's by Nintendo

He's literally the same as fucking Dunkey, who's ideal game is a platformer and can't wrap his brains around anything beyond that.

>Complains that Splatoon 2 is just a reskin of Splatoon 1
>His arguments towards this point show he hasn't played the game for more than an hour

At this point I pretty much skip any of his Nintendo reviews. Although it was funny seeing him get pissed off at people calling him out on that bias once.

He made more games than /agdg/ and Yea Forums will ever hope to shit out

>How can I trust his opinion when he's still the same person at his core unless the game is so popular that it forces him to play it through?

This.

He makes jokes about hating a game so much he only played it for 3 hours. But all that means is he constantly excuses himself from actually doing his job.

I remember Yea Forums shitting on game reviewers when the Rome 2 developers used Steam stats to show that only 20% of them had actually put in more than 3 hours into the game. It's ridiculous to give Yahtzee a pass on that.

No.

>Also audio Mogworld is pretty decent as well

Mogworld was 90% a Dreadful Pratchett ripoff and maybe in the last 10% he found his voice and told a somewhat interesting story.

>Forgettable

I have a successful career and family.

Forgettable within 2 generations of that. Stop trying to bring down things that matter more than you.

>crappy adventure games
>matter

Eh... half and half. He shills to a lot of indie games because he sympathizes with them, which can be a good and bad thing. But he also said that Dead Rising 4 is one of the shittest games ever made. Which I can agree with 100%. That trint of a... thing (does not even deserve the title of a "game") is the only thing I have ever physically destroyed with my bare hands and fire.
