Big thanks to all the channels featured in our video! Find them in the description. Which of these do YOU think was the most pointless thing to get upset about? Let us know in the comments!
People got worked up because SonicFox is a twat whos constantly trying to be at the center of attention. His little stage performance that was embarrassing. No one cares about how gay or black you are or how you upset THE CONSERVATIVES when they don't care about you.
The MK11 Jax Ending is about making the US not exist and becoming a black country like Wakanda. So yes, it is cringe and thats why people hated it. Where are you getting this "These people just are pro-slavery" I have black friends that hate that fucking ending.
I remember when "Bully" came out and Jack Thompson tried to get it banned. The Judge decided to take the game home and play it to see if it was indeed unsuitable for people. He returned the following court session with a big grin on his face and said it's perfectly fine. Jack yelled at the judge and was almost imprisoned.
Back when he was trying to get it banned, I recall him claiming that Bully was a Columbine simulator. I would expect no less from someone who knows two things about video games - Jack and shit, and Jack left town.
@@thenewjord50 i remember at the Gta 5 midnight launch, got my copy and at the same shop a couple were getting a copy for their kid. The shop clerk didn't care
exactly video games much like movies and tv shows have ratings for a reason so if you buy a game or watch a tv show or movie knowing that they have nudity and strong language then that's their problem not our problem
What makes it even funnier about No. 1 is that Spider-Man has a Photo Mode which you can uses stickers to decorate your photos, including get this, puddle stickers, referencing the “controversy”. XD
There were complaints regarding Smite's goddesses being over sexualized. When this controversy popped up, those of us familiar with theology and certain religions laughed as Smite's depictions of said certain goddesses were actual covered in more conservative attire.
This clip doesn't show the line. Go look it up on UA-cam. I'm not someone who tries to find something controversial, but the zombies really sounded like they were saying n****.
@@cameronmcewen9666 I swear! I literally just got done arguing with this person over a skit done by famous rappers. They went on and on about how it was funny to *some* people and how we are praising money over education. The skit didn't even have anything remotely offensive then he compared it to someone punching another person in the face, calling it a prank. The skit was about owning a donut shop btw. I'm so done with the internet smh.
Like idc about the puddle as long as the Spider-Man game is good. It was great. Those who complain about small things like puddles, gloves and exploding fruit but it's not the right kind of explosion are the reason why things don't go like we always want them to
I'm actually glad that digital homicide lost the lawsuit against the guy who reviewed their game as a bad game It's pretty pathetic that people would get so butthurt to the point that they'd file a lawsuit against the person who reviewed their game and criticized it
The guys name digital homicide were trying to sue was name Jim Sterling a video game critic who said the slaughtering grounds was an asset flip sold in a poor state they tried to sue him for $15 million but failed badly.
This shows extremists on both sides are ridiculous and overly sensitive. "Oh no, an M rated game involves violence" and "oh no, the game gives you the opportunity to be gay"....I hate people sometimes
Hooboy, I couldn't agree with you more. I have my specific social & political leanings (like everyone else), but all sides everywhere are equal opportunity employers when it comes to idiots. Most things shouldn't even have "sides." People have opinions, and lot of them are going to have a different opinion than yours. That's called the real world. But we seem to be addicted to polarization and demonizing anyone who doesn't agree with us.
@@yggdrasil1969 absolutely. It's like everything has become political now and one opinion decides your entire ideology. We've been polarized for at least 50 years but now it's evolved to include every decision and opinion you can possibly make - even on the most inconsequential bullshit, like hair styles
Whatever happened to the supposed Bully 2 that was meant to come out? I was never a big gamer but there was a handful I loved & completed, Bully was one of them. Such a fun game.
Literally played through again last month after playing it last when it released. So good. I can only imagine what a sequel would be like if we ever get one. 🤞🏽
The mass effect controversy is what made me realize that news channels often have no idea what they're talking about. It's unbelievable the bullshit they spew when you're an expert in what they're talking about.
Sonic having his modern design in Sonic 4 has to be on this list. That petition that Classic Sonic fans put out back then was downright laughable. "We're going to boycott Sonic 4 by not buying the game, but instead buy endless copies of Sonic 1. That'll show em!"
"We're gonna boycott Sega and not give them money....by giving them money! Take THAT, Sega! Now do you see what we want most??" Uh....no. Because you still gave them money. Idiots XD Yeah. that boycott was SOOO stupid XD
As idiotic as it was, I honestly think it was stuff like this that caused Sega to implement Sonic's original character design as an entirely separate character! Which eventually led to Sonic Mania, which in fairness was a good game, but let's face facts here, it would've still been good if the characters had coloured irises!
For me, number 1 would 100% be the “Hot Coffee” controversy from GTA SA. The cutscene is hidden and could only be accessed using mods which isn’t available normally and the game is rated M for Mature.
Games with T ratings: oh wow this game is good for my children but I’m not buying it Games with M rating: this game looks great for my child I’m buying it (seconds later) goodness nudity

#1 has gotta be the most pointless one to get mad at. Like I wouldn't have even noticed that, but clearly the people who complained about it just wanna be mad at the world lol
7:50 - This one actually just ended recently, in the best way possible. Apple lost and can no longer charge their 30% to companies with their own payment methods, AND Epic had to pay a very large sum of money for circumventing the policy they agreed to. The only "downside" is that games made by Epic are no longer allowed on Apple products (as Apple is very upset at having lost), which I don't mind as I don't play them. Phenomenal.
Honestly, I was actually behind Epic on the lawsuit, DESPITE the fact that Epic themselves are shitty people. Its like when Stalin wanted to kill Hitler. Yeah, Stalin is a shitty leader, but hey, if they are gonna take down Hitler, im all for it
One dumb video game controversy (if you can even label it as that) i can recall is about genshin impact and Eula. Where people got upset over eula's whole Character because of her family's past. It was honestly stupid.
Another thing about the game Bully. It was banned here in Australia for a while. Not because of its content, but because of the name, Bully. Once it was renamed Canis Canem Edit, no problem, it could be sold here. Left a lot of people, me included, thinking wtf? Smh. Some people are just so stupid they don't even realise they are stupid. Dunning-Kruger effect, anyone?
I’m surprised the “Night Trap” controversy didn’t make the list. Congress actually held hearings about the supposed horrific violence towards women…in “Night Trap.” The game where the bad guys are lumbering about in garbage bags and are defeated by falling through holes in the ground and walls. We have ratings on games because of this.
I feel so bad for Hbox, but I'm glad that moment led to a lot of people backing off of the hate for him and he's become a lot happier and more accepted in the community
Marvel's Spiderman: A game so good that the most controversy they generated was the disappearance of a puddle. This and Miles Morales are the first games I wanna play when I get my PS5 digital version.
Omg. An issue over a puddle? Don't they realize when making a game, there's going to be some additions upon release that wasn't in demo or pre-gameplay?
Plus, puddles can also be annoying no matter how great your game looks graphically because of the human reflections you have to ensure in them as they walk over it. In order to prevent errors from slipping through, they just made it a bit smaller than usual…and not even that much smaller! It's just a load of crap.
They actually replaced peter's face in the PS5 version. Unlike the puddle, THAT'S a legitimate controversy that isn't stupid. Okay, it's still stupid, but it makes more sense than the puddle. We got used to the way Peter looked in the base game.
@@tcrpgfan Well it's used to make Peter to look more like Tom Holland because in real life he moved to a college (forgot what the name was) in New York Manhattan which they also added into the game.
Im soo tired of the censorship!..I believe low rating TV and film industries are scared that video games could buy them out if there's less restrictions and more creative freedom..
Desperate is the perfect word to describe the people who thought that calling these out were a good idea! Not everything is worth getting riled up about. I mean, what's next? People causing a huge uproar over a single grain of sand out of place? WHO, THE HELL, CARES?!! Stan Marsh: "Will you people STOP reading into stuff that ISN'T THERE?!!!
Personally, I preferred Dinklebot. I thought his dry delivery was appropriate for the character, and I liked the deeper tones. But that was the least of Destiny's problems.
Fact Bully was supposed to have a Haunted Paper Mill, but it was cut from the game, but you can still here dialogue relating to the Haunted Paper Mill in game.
It's funny, yesterday during Sakurai presents I was mildly upset that Sora's hair didn't change with his costumes but like... it's such a teeny tiny thing that it doesn't matter
top ten biggest video game misconseptions 1. Link is Zelda 2. Master Sword only blocks dark magic (it blocks all kinds) 3. Steve is the last human (evidence proves otherwise)
Seriously? Players got angry at Skullgirls for SonicFox's cameo because he's a gay non-binary Furry?? That's not only stupid, that's ignorant and homophobic.
Ok, the first one with sonic fox would actually be cool as hell to see yourself in a game. Also for Stubbs the zombie, if your child is that impressionable an willing to reenact whatever they watch an play maybe they shouldn't be playing or watching certain things.
21. Doki Doki Literature Club (2019) Had controversy because the art "drew a parent's son in" and caused him to commit suicide, despite the game having warnings about sensitive content in there - they sent the report in to the BBC, which then sent an inquiry through an email to Team Salvato (The Creators)
@@ComeOnEh but, but, but... lazy, shitty parents HAVE to have something to blame the way the kids they "raised" turned out on... it couldn't possibly be the fact that most of them should have never been parents in the first place!
i miss dinkle bot, he was the perfect ghost which is just a very advanced AI, he done his VA perfectly, but noooo people complained and said a 'robot' needed to have nore emotion...
Which also proves that the people probably never saw films with emotionless robots like Terminator, RoboCop, Star Wars, The Day the Earth stood still, etc.
For my favorite super hero is Spider-Man and the game possibly being my favorite, I’m was absolutely shocked it became #1 on this list over a F**KING PUDDLE 😂
I thought the issue with Jax's ending in MK11 was that they made the character's race part of his story like every other black character in every other property ever, which I get. Even I wish to see things about black people not just be about black struggles as though it is all we have as stories. That said, the ending was fine logically. I think if most black people had that power, they would do the same. I think there was also something about the ending having no non-black characters visibly shown, but still a minor detail to me.
I think the Hao Infinite fruit thing was about the technology appearing as less advanced than older games. Same thing with CP2077 with how the AI just crouches when shots are heard, yet GTA5, a game 7 years older on previous gen consoles, have characters react much more diversely.
Buttgate could be tied to both Overwatch's Tracer and Street Fighter 5's R. Mika. Having to change them was dumb, but while I admit to getting annoyed with Mika's change, they weren't a big deal. I found Mika's change to be weird, like a character flipping you off, but the hand is offscreen. Cammy's change made some sense, as it was just a needless camera shot.
Mass Effect hasn't had full nudity until Andromeda. To me, if you can't see it, it's not full nudity. Implication don't count. This is when I first stopped giving a shit about Fox News. They even said you can control the sex, which is false, and you have to play a certain way to get there. Also, isn't the game M rated?
I wholeheartedly agree with your assessment on the Jax topic. People liked seeing him as more than "just the black guy", which unfortunately his ending made him out to be. Had the ending been more about him talking about his duty to serve and protect his fellow men (connecting to his military backstory) with a flash of the slave trade, it would have better connected to his character while addressing his desire to right the injustices of the past. It also would have gotten rid of that awful line of him not waiting for people to get woke.
As a black man myself I would totally stop slavery like he did and make and ideal word like he did. But the main problem of the ending is the context around it. He recently just lost his wife and is constantly fear of his daughter suffering like he did and he nearly killed his daughter and is trying make amends. So him getting this god like power and thinking let's just stop slavery was a weird thing.
So should we just not have any adult content due to stupid kids not listening? Their parents should be parenting, also I knew kids playing M rated games in middle school and they turned out fine.
Some of these dumb complaints I can see having small legitimate reason for them, but seriously, the rest of these 'complaints' are basically clickbait nonsense created by social media trolls. Only problem is there's no way anyone can accurately tell which is which.
14:54 WRONG!!!! This WHOLE segment is wrong. First off, it was during closed beta, not release. Secondly, it wasn't a "handful of people" it was literally ONE guy who made a post on the forums complaining about his daughter idolizing Tracer and that this pose came off too sexualizing for her: “What about this pose has anything to do with the character you’re building in tracer? It’s not fun, its not silly, it has nothing to do with being a fast elite killer. It just reduces tracer to another bland female sex symbol.” “We aren’t looking at a Widowmaker pose here, this isn’t a character who is in part defined by flaunting her sexuality. This pose says to the player base, oh we’ve got all these cool diverse characters, but at any moment we are willing to reduce them to sex symbols to help boost our investment game.” “I have a young daughter that everyday when I wake up wants to watch the recall trailer again. She knows who tracer is, and as she grows up, she can grow up alongside these characters. What I’m asking is that as you continue to add to the overwatch cast and investment elements, you double down on your commitment to create strong female characters. You’ve been doing a good job so far, but shipping with a tracer pose like this undermines so much of the good you’ve already done.”
#11 should be #1 if only because those offended by ending slavery and racism are monsters and deserve to be called out for it unlike any of the other controversies on this list. Jax even says "The world is a better place for everyone." #12 doesn't seem that dumb. People who already bought the game from the beginning have a right to feel like they're being given the short end of the stick. Rats are our friends, and for anyone who chooses to main Jigglypuff, I believe in you and support you.
People were mad, because it basically boiled down Jax character to just his skin color Now I'm not saying that it's unbelievable that Jax would do something like that, but the fact that his ending focused on slavery (as well as using the word "woke") instead of focusing on his family, didn't really make sense for Jax's character
Thank you for being respectful to trans and non-binary individuals! (I know that showing people basic level of respect should be expected and shouldn't have to be praised but in this current state of the world..) Referencing Sterling as they/them was awesome :)
We live in a world where everyone is offended by everything and that somehow someway people only want to be miserable slugs on the internet rather than optimistic objective minds. People complain about the most idiotic things.
The Dinklebot controversy was so stupid. Why be upset? Also, why hire a big name voice actor and then hide his voice? Could have saved a lot of money there. Both sides were pretty foolish.
Regarding the Portal 2 controversy: In the clip you used to try to defend the game, after Glados chastises Wheatley for making the adoption joke, she tells the player that being adopted is terrible.
I loved Spider-Man, but the controversy over puddles (which I never heard of)… that's stupid! Why would somebody complain about the puddle being made smaller and call it a downgrade?!
Its just that a well known company that has been on all platforms for years, and then became an exclusive because Microsoft bought them with MONEY is a big slap to Playstation, Nintendo, and other platforms.
For #6 they might as well get pissed at COD MW3 for making you shoot or stab attack dogs - German Shepards - with C4 strapped to their backs & attack Hyenas in Africa.
People desperate for attention will look, look and look until they find a grain of sand to complain about, the only thing sadder is the companies actually listen to them, its like their looking to make every single person happy except the actual fans why buy 99% percent of the games. So many games ruined, so many opportunities missed when its easier just to tell them to shut up.
1:45 My brother was adopted and he loves playing Portal 1 and 2 whenever he can. (He's also black and 2 months younger than me and the rest of the family is white, so it wasn't exactly front page news when our parents sat us down and told us when he and I were 10.) I've never heard him complain. Why? Because no one cares where he came from. What matters is where he grew up and that was in the same house I did and where my kids are currently growing up.
No one said it was offensive honestly watchmojo completely got it all wrong to unsell what people actually said about it. No one had a problem that Jax ended slavery, people had a problem that it felt completely random and like the devs were trying to earn brownie points. Nothing about Jax's character was defined about him being black or facing hardships because he was black. So him deciding out of nowhere hey I'm going to end slavery when in complete honest in the context of the game and his story it was totally out of nowhere and kinda out of character for him to do.
Some other dumb controversies: -journalist argued that mario maker for the wii u is "racist"and"sexist"because the animated hand the player sees on the screen is white and does not look feminine. -one hitman game got accussed for being mysogynistic because of an optional mission to go to a brothel and kill women(while you spent the rest of the game killing men) -one time in greece the media said that fortnite was very inapropriate for children because it has got voice chat and many pedophiles are using it to get closer to children.

That puddle isn’t so important, so yeah that was the dummest controversy i ever heard.
The fruit controversy is just as ridiculous. Who gets mad over fruit and puddles? Some people just can’t be happy unless they’re being toxic.
Downgrading sometimes need to be done to make deadline, as long as it does not affect the games immersion too much

“At least my butt didn’t start a controversy”
ah a jt music fan I see
@@DivineFlameEmperor would it be an accurate description of the incident?
@@korhol2065 I would say it's an apt description of the situation my good sir
One dumb video game controversy (if you can even label it as that) i can recall is about genshin impact and Eula. Where people got upset over eula's whole Character because of her family's past. It was honestly stupid.
Yeah apparently fictional character backstories can offend people to the point that they feel it warrants online harassment and such
Another thing about the game Bully. It was banned here in Australia for a while. Not because of its content, but because of the name, Bully. Once it was renamed Canis Canem Edit, no problem, it could be sold here. Left a lot of people, me included, thinking wtf? Smh. Some people are just so stupid they don't even realise they are stupid. Dunning-Kruger effect, anyone?
People nowadays get offended about everything. They got upset over Tracer's butt. These people are complete snowflakes.
Or they just want attention
Who complains about a fucking puddle in a video game so stupid are the snowflakes
Tracer had no butt in this video... Like at all

I’m surprised the “Night Trap” controversy didn’t make the list. Congress actually held hearings about the supposed horrific violence towards women…in “Night Trap.” The game where the bad guys are lumbering about in garbage bags and are defeated by falling through holes in the ground and walls. We have ratings on games because of this.
I feel so bad for Hbox, but I'm glad that moment led to a lot of people backing off of the hate for him and he's become a lot happier and more accepted in the community
Before I was just a fan of watchmojo , but after watching this masterpiece, I am a whole air conditioner.
Underrated comment.
Marvel's Spiderman: A game so good that the most controversy they generated was the disappearance of a puddle.
This and Miles Morales are the first games I wanna play when I get my PS5 digital version.
I have them both on my PS5, and they're both amazing. Just got every trophy in Miles Morales, and I have two remaining on Spider-Man.
Omg. An issue over a puddle? Don't they realize when making a game, there's going to be some additions upon release that wasn't in demo or pre-gameplay?
Plus, puddles can also be annoying no matter how great your game looks graphically because of the human reflections you have to ensure in them as they walk over it. In order to prevent errors from slipping through, they just made it a bit smaller than usual…and not even that much smaller! It's just a load of crap.
They actually replaced peter's face in the PS5 version. Unlike the puddle, THAT'S a legitimate controversy that isn't stupid. Okay, it's still stupid, but it makes more sense than the puddle. We got used to the way Peter looked in the base game.
@@tcrpgfan Well it's used to make Peter to look more like Tom Holland because in real life he moved to a college (forgot what the name was) in New York Manhattan which they also added into the game.
In the vast land of the Internet you can throw a rock blind folded and it will ALWAYS land on someone's feelings.
It would've been great if there was a bully live-action series
What do you think these video games would be like if these controversies never took place?
They’d be so magnificent.
Exactly the same
For me it would be glorious
They would probably be the same, there would just be less funny stories to tell.
Everytime ive seen SonicFox interviewed, the happy,nervous,awkward energy is adorable
I knew Mass Effect would make the list. Everyone basically laughed at how Faux News tried to make it seem like the game was a virtual sex-fest.
Im soo tired of the censorship!..I believe low rating TV and film industries are scared that video games could buy them out if there's less restrictions and more creative freedom..
I love how the dad is complaining about the adoption quotes and the little girl is just sitting there blasting away. LOL

Personally, I preferred Dinklebot. I thought his dry delivery was appropriate for the character, and I liked the deeper tones. But that was the least of Destiny's problems.
Fact Bully was supposed to have a Haunted Paper Mill, but it was cut from the game, but you can still here dialogue relating to the Haunted Paper Mill in game.
It's funny, yesterday during Sakurai presents I was mildly upset that Sora's hair didn't change with his costumes but like... it's such a teeny tiny thing that it doesn't matter

Snowflake - “This video offends me and my group, let’s do a petition on gofundme to make it gone!”
Ok, the first one with sonic fox would actually be cool as hell to see yourself in a game. Also for Stubbs the zombie, if your child is that impressionable an willing to reenact whatever they watch an play maybe they shouldn't be playing or watching certain things.
If you’re gonna mention how explicit Rockstar Games is. Then you’re contradicting yourself. That’s what they do

i miss dinkle bot, he was the perfect ghost which is just a very advanced AI, he done his VA perfectly, but noooo people complained and said a 'robot' needed to have nore emotion...
Which also proves that the people probably never saw films with emotionless robots like Terminator, RoboCop, Star Wars, The Day the Earth stood still, etc.

I thought the issue with Jax's ending in MK11 was that they made the character's race part of his story like every other black character in every other property ever, which I get. Even I wish to see things about black people not just be about black struggles as though it is all we have as stories. That said, the ending was fine logically. I think if most black people had that power, they would do the same. I think there was also something about the ending having no non-black characters visibly shown, but still a minor detail to me.
I think the Hao Infinite fruit thing was about the technology appearing as less advanced than older games. Same thing with CP2077 with how the AI just crouches when shots are heard, yet GTA5, a game 7 years older on previous gen consoles, have characters react much more diversely.
Buttgate could be tied to both Overwatch's Tracer and Street Fighter 5's R. Mika. Having to change them was dumb, but while I admit to getting annoyed with Mika's change, they weren't a big deal. I found Mika's change to be weird, like a character flipping you off, but the hand is offscreen. Cammy's change made some sense, as it was just a needless camera shot.
Mass Effect hasn't had full nudity until Andromeda. To me, if you can't see it, it's not full nudity. Implication don't count. This is when I first stopped giving a shit about Fox News. They even said you can control the sex, which is false, and you have to play a certain way to get there. Also, isn't the game M rated?
I wholeheartedly agree with your assessment on the Jax topic. People liked seeing him as more than "just the black guy", which unfortunately his ending made him out to be. Had the ending been more about him talking about his duty to serve and protect his fellow men (connecting to his military backstory) with a flash of the slave trade, it would have better connected to his character while addressing his desire to right the injustices of the past. It also would have gotten rid of that awful line of him not waiting for people to get woke.
As a black man myself I would totally stop slavery like he did and make and ideal word like he did. But the main problem of the ending is the context around it. He recently just lost his wife and is constantly fear of his daughter suffering like he did and he nearly killed his daughter and is trying make amends. So him getting this god like power and thinking let's just stop slavery was a weird thing.
6:55 "despite the fact it had a M rating and children shouldn't be playing it anyway!" but they do...
then thats on the parents and not the publisher
So should we just not have any adult content due to stupid kids not listening? Their parents should be parenting, also I knew kids playing M rated games in middle school and they turned out fine.
@@mattwolf7698 I never said that, I just said they do it anyway, I didn't say that it effected them in anyway or HOW it would if it did
people have talked about it so much that the developers had put puddles as stickers in photo mode.
Some of these dumb complaints I can see having small legitimate reason for them, but seriously, the rest of these 'complaints' are basically clickbait nonsense created by social media trolls. Only problem is there's no way anyone can accurately tell which is which.
14:54 WRONG!!!! This WHOLE segment is wrong. First off, it was during closed beta, not release. Secondly, it wasn't a "handful of people" it was literally ONE guy who made a post on the forums complaining about his daughter idolizing Tracer and that this pose came off too sexualizing for her:
“What about this pose has anything to do with the character you’re building in tracer? It’s not fun, its not silly, it has nothing to do with being a fast elite killer. It just reduces tracer to another bland female sex symbol.”
“We aren’t looking at a Widowmaker pose here, this isn’t a character who is in part defined by flaunting her sexuality. This pose says to the player base, oh we’ve got all these cool diverse characters, but at any moment we are willing to reduce them to sex symbols to help boost our investment game.”
“I have a young daughter that everyday when I wake up wants to watch the recall trailer again. She knows who tracer is, and as she grows up, she can grow up alongside these characters. What I’m asking is that as you continue to add to the overwatch cast and investment elements, you double down on your commitment to create strong female characters. You’ve been doing a good job so far, but shipping with a tracer pose like this undermines so much of the good you’ve already done.”
Keep it up on your work and this channel
Come oooon! I'm adopted and i never thought that Portal 2 jokes were offensive. They use dark humor, that's all.
#11 should be #1 if only because those offended by ending slavery and racism are monsters and deserve to be called out for it unlike any of the other controversies on this list. Jax even says "The world is a better place for everyone."
#12 doesn't seem that dumb. People who already bought the game from the beginning have a right to feel like they're being given the short end of the stick.
Rats are our friends, and for anyone who chooses to main Jigglypuff, I believe in you and support you.
People were mad, because it basically boiled down Jax character to just his skin color
Now I'm not saying that it's unbelievable that Jax would do something like that, but the fact that his ending focused on slavery (as well as using the word "woke") instead of focusing on his family, didn't really make sense for Jax's character
About the Adoption Jokes in Portal 2, GLaDOS literally said “What’s wrong with being adopted?”.
Thank you for being respectful to trans and non-binary individuals! (I know that showing people basic level of respect should be expected and shouldn't have to be praised but in this current state of the world..) Referencing Sterling as they/them was awesome :)
i lost count how many brain cell i lost while watching this
Number 1 Fortnite existing
I think it’s dumb because everyone bashes the game for no reason
We live in a world where everyone is offended by everything and that somehow someway people only want to be miserable slugs on the internet rather than optimistic objective minds. People complain about the most idiotic things.
Lol that one about being sued because you say a game is bad. If you could sue someone for that every video game maker would be suing everyone 😂😂
Oh yeah, Digital Homicide sued a bunch of Steam users for talking sh*t about The Slaughtering Grounds. WOW.
The parents need to stop blaming the game companies because they're too busy being a shitty parent buying GTA for a 10 year old.
The Dinklebot controversy was so stupid. Why be upset? Also, why hire a big name voice actor and then hide his voice? Could have saved a lot of money there. Both sides were pretty foolish.
Regarding the Portal 2 controversy: In the clip you used to try to defend the game, after Glados chastises Wheatley for making the adoption joke, she tells the player that being adopted is terrible.
People need to start treating video games with respect. No wonder why I don't trust certain groups of people.
Bro I had siblings who are adopted and when we played Portal and we heard that we laughed our asses off.
I loved Spider-Man, but the controversy over puddles (which I never heard of)… that's stupid! Why would somebody complain about the puddle being made smaller and call it a downgrade?!
If I remember correctly, it wasn't reflecting as well which was a legitmate performance downgrade.
Why is "They" being used for single people! It keeps pissing me off because I think there are multiple people that are being spoken about.
I'm kind of surprised that there is no Pokémon controversy in the list
"Waa zombies offend me" Honestly if someone said that I would smack them over their face
Its just that a well known company that has been on all platforms for years, and then became an exclusive because Microsoft bought them with MONEY is a big slap to Playstation, Nintendo, and other platforms.
The adopted dad is just so sensitive, I myself am adopted, I take no offence to this.
For #6 they might as well get pissed at COD MW3 for making you shoot or stab attack dogs - German Shepards - with C4 strapped to their backs & attack Hyenas in Africa.
People desperate for attention will look, look and look until they find a grain of sand to complain about, the only thing sadder is the companies actually listen to them, its like their looking to make every single person happy except the actual fans why buy 99% percent of the games. So many games ruined, so many opportunities missed when its easier just to tell them to shut up.
1:45 My brother was adopted and he loves playing Portal 1 and 2 whenever he can. (He's also black and 2 months younger than me and the rest of the family is white, so it wasn't exactly front page news when our parents sat us down and told us when he and I were 10.) I've never heard him complain. Why? Because no one cares where he came from. What matters is where he grew up and that was in the same house I did and where my kids are currently growing up.
IIRC, Lohan also wanted to sue eTrade because they had a baby named Lindsay in one of their ads.
Who would really look at Jax's ending as offensive? But that tells you what those peoples mindset is at smh.
No one said it was offensive honestly watchmojo completely got it all wrong to unsell what people actually said about it. No one had a problem that Jax ended slavery, people had a problem that it felt completely random and like the devs were trying to earn brownie points. Nothing about Jax's character was defined about him being black or facing hardships because he was black. So him deciding out of nowhere hey I'm going to end slavery when in complete honest in the context of the game and his story it was totally out of nowhere and kinda out of character for him to do.

-one hitman game got accussed for being mysogynistic because of an optional mission to go to a brothel and kill women(while you spent the rest of the game killing men)
-one time in greece the media said that fortnite was very inapropriate for children because it has got voice chat and many pedophiles are using it to get closer to children.
