    • @humanconvertile
      @humanconvertile 8 років тому

      M LT All those games and micro-transactions are scams. Some are merely less slimy and underhanded than others, but they all rely on gamer addiction and impatience to compel them to put a lot of cash into the game just so they can see the rest of the content by making any "free" route, if there is one, as unappealing, tedious, and impossible as they can.

      I only hate ads that you can't skip. Like I don't give a crap about the game so I hated not being able to skip it.
      In general the only ads I sometimes like to watch on UA-cam are movie trailers.
      If I don't know about a game then it's almost guaranteed I will have no interest in it.

      I think that, at least for me, the humor is derived from trying to imagine a group of game writers sitting around and coming around to decide that that line was the coolest option they had going for them. ...and also probably from the fact that unlike crap like "All your bases are belong to us," I'm not reminded of that line particularly often, so it always seems _freshly_ stupid whenever I hear it.

      @ShadowUltra 8 років тому +48

      I don't think ProJared disapproved of the concept, it's more the fact that the game had pretty much forced gambling with real money and it was shallow as hell for a final fantasy game and was basically a cash grab. There are plenty of semi fun clicker games out there and the fact that he ascended in this one means that he actually did play it enough to know what it is. It's still kind of annoying to see that ad though.

      I think that the people bitching about people bitching about the ad did so more recently, and were more popular, due to their welcome meta-commentary on a tired subject. So they're what you're seeing now. There are probably just about as many people who bitched about the ad, but you'd have to load more comments to see them.

Also you can just skip it and if your internet is too slow maybe you should sell out so you can make more money and afford to.

      DiamondDead And of course he plays other games. Not every game he plays or shows he watches is something he likes. He streams to keep up with the fans during his monthly absence, and videos are a lot harder to make than you realize. It can take up to working 3 hours for a whole week to release just an okay video, and putting in effort means putting in more hours. Yes, there is not benefits of health insurance or fixed incomes, but there's clearly more to making videos than just "gotta find a job I can do" unless you make videos solely for cash. Plus, a simple 8 hour job can take out a lot more time from making videos than you think. Some people don't release for months because of job issues, school, or even working in the military. There's nothing wrong with sponsors so long as you do it in the right way (short 1 minute advertisement), but you're just seeing the bad side of it. I would be pissed if Jared went full sellout, but I don't agree on fully individual, no advertisement system as I never was a man who thought leaning towards one side or the other too much is a good idea.

Though, unlike the sort of reboot...-ish game for Xbox and Ps3, given the whole concepts of the original and this whole remake scene with games like the recent RE2 remake, there could be a chance for Alone in the Dark to return for modern gaming in the future (assuming some rights-holding nonsense isn't going on).

    Honestly, I don't give a shit about the ad but I do find it hilarious that advertisers think that this would make me want to play their game, at all and not make me just resent them forever. Shit like this makes me guarantee that I will never, ever play your game.
    So I gotta thank ProJared for that. In actuality, he's looking out for you.

      GameGrumps is often sponsored by Lootcrate, and they make great ads.

      Stephen O'Brien The problem with that is how sponsorships work. The sponsor contacts the medium, not the other way around. This means that ProJared can't just say "Hey, Squeenix, can you pay me to do a Chrono Trigger ad for you? Yeah? Cool!" That's just not how that works. When selecting an advertisement, you can only get paid for what companies have offered you to advertise. With ProJared's more minor popularity on UA-cam, I have a feeling this was one of the only sponsors available.
