Swears too much. And what kind of thesis is, "What the fuck happened?"

And now I know who you are on the BitF forums.

You're thinking of the angry video game nerd.

You're thinking I didn't actually sit through the entire first video. Dude has some good ideas, but is really terrible at expressing them.

Hm... I watched the first two videos. He still reminds me of Yahtzee, but because he covers a different aspect of video games (themes, I suppose) I'm willing to watch.

His ideas are interesting, and he does have some valid points; I just wish he would be a bit more thorough. For example, in the second one he only covered one area of what he introduced the idea of women being portrayed as either "Damsels" or "Macho Women" but he only went on to discuss the damsel archetype.

Still, might watch some more.

He was talking too fast to understand well.

Haha, I love this guy. It's cool to have someone who rants about gaming but doesn't just pick out all the negatives (don't get me wrong, I love Zero Punct too), and isn't so much a reviewer as a general onlooker. He makes a lot of valid points.

...Yeah, I just Archive Binge'd the whole daisies collection. Anyone else?

He's... sorta good. But I'm not interested, because most of his points are cliche'd ones (such as Nintendo doesn't care about 3rd party, Sony/Microsoft consoles only care about heavy graphics and mature consumers, etc) that, when you examine in detail, aren't actually as true as they first seem.

Ah monotone

I agree, he does kinda speak in monotone.
But...
Who the hell stole my DNA and made a male copy of me? I sound exactly like that, except my rants center around Zelda! What the hell???

Has an annoying voice and is terrible at public speaking. Sounds like a bad vlog in response to some forum argument. Yatzee might actually have the same problem, but I'm not accustomed to Australian accents so I'm just charmed and ignorant.
