- Not my usual pace but I felt I had something to contribute in a more '2nd wave critical analysis'. Let me know if you might want to see more of this sort of thing.

And I guess I should tag at least Vara? @DarkTitanEnterprises
I am not sure David would want that however; I am not trying to pile on.

Vara does play throughs and reviews too. She keeps receipts of play too. Much respect for Vara
David has spent his time interacting with Devs, Vera has spent it with games and gamers. The increasing distance between what the devs want to give us and what we want is why the gaming industry is in trouble. We are no longer getting a product worth our money but somehow they think they're entitled to it because of how long they spent on it.
I don't think this is the fault of the rift between dev and consumer. But rather the fact that their are intertwining. No other medium does you see creator and user interact to this extent.
Jaffe is an entitled narcissist who's also incredibly weak. The result is that he's too weak to deal with his son wearing dresses, so instead he just cries online that everyone else should give his child everything they want just like he does.
Jaffe destroyed his reputation a long time before he started attacking youtubers.
Good video dude, was a nice little meditation on the dynamics at play
I reckon you could do a video like this every now and then without changing the vibe of your channel at all 👌
I followed you for the reviews but I like these commentary videos you’ve been doing on the gaming industry as well. A lot of people are getting sick of the direction the AAA industry has been going for years now.
Vera is on sidescrollers once a week and Ive enjoyed her takes. Shes well informed and backs up her assertions. Appreciate the video!
I'm all for it! This needs to be talked about. Gamers have been silent for years and it achieved nothing but the crazies taking advantage of that silence. I was also neutral before and then they ruined Dragon Age, and I realize they won't be stopping until they ruin the other franchise the real fans love
yeah there is this mindset "if you dont like it dont buy it, dont talk about, dont comment about it, do something else with your time"
Ok but what has that achieved? We have been doing it for over a decade and things are worse than ever.
@@arkgaharandan5881 Yep the reason why I vocalize my thoughts now, liking, commenting on videos and posts, disagreeing with the agenda and politics being shoved to our faces
Gamers ignored it for years, and these selfish corpo guys interpreted it as green-light, to keep doing it. Now we are in this shit
Jaffe and some (most?) of the mainstream games media dance so elegantly around the real reasons why games like Concord and Veilguard were not as popular as they could have been. Always blaming the core audience for those failures or low sales numbers. The reality is, if someone is interested in a game, if that game looks good or interesting to them they will spend the money and take the time to play it. Sometimes games are just not interesting to the vast majority of people, its not rocket science. If Jaffe actually doesn't understand this I'm more than happy to explain it to him.
Mate..... Really enjoying your content, I'm a recent sub. Do reviews, do the drama and keep covering the stuff that interests you. I find you to be very even in your coverage, while not shying from the obvious problems that most shills dare not draw attention to.
Davey boy is irrelevant now. His opinions are to be ignored, mocked or laughed at.
It is so refreshing to see and listen to the gamers, podcasters finally dismantling modern gaming at its core.
support indie devs
Depends on the devs
Never forget David rant on Metroid Dread.
Check David's early life section boys hehe
I am anti woke and original Gamergate, things have gotten so bad that even i dont care about this anymore. David Jaffee says that youtube grifters ruined dragon age but my view is the opposite, the grifters are the press who pretend a game that is linear scripted with no exploration barely any choices for a bioware rpg and its one giant dungeon and the media overrated the game like shills saying its a 9/10 a year after baldurs gate 3.
This is a mask off moment for the mainstream critics, paid shills, and the actual grifters, meanwhile youtubers said its not good for many reasons. No wonder jaffee like it, its like a god of war game with dialogues and more characters on screen, its not an rpg.
its mind-blowing to me how their side is gonna argue that we are the stupid lying grifters and not them.
Honestly man the industry is horrible now, the only game that looked good in the game awards last years was exodus, which ironically would be the answer to the skinsuit known as bioware, for starters they hired as ci fi author to write the story unlike starifled, but the studio couldnt do it, they run out of money and canceled it and shut it down. I wonder if that has to do with people in the industry taking notice we reacted positively to it so they told the ex bioware devs to shut it down and come back to work on more ea stuff. Anyway, i am so sick and tired of how awful modern games are, if the game awards dont show anything good, then i am done with AAA, i will still check your channel for indie games though as well as splattercat gaming and a few others.
When it comes to anti woke youtubers right now the big one is smashJT and madam savvy who uncovered alot of weird stuff going on. Then you got sidescrollers who run by stuttering craig from screw attack and archcast makes good commentary videos. I think its great that we have these channels to inform us about things we are not suppose to know or talk about it and i am so sick and tired for the shill channels. But you see thats it, it has gotten so bad in terms of games that they lost the shill channels like skillup and mrmattyplays when it comes to veilguard.
I just want good games but the industry is run by clowns.
David Jaffe. If his rat-like appearance wasn't a strong enough indicator, you need only to read the 2nd sentence of his Biography on Wikipedia to understand why he's such an inherently vile man. One can easily surmise he has no talent to speak of, gained his position solely due to nepotism, and whatever accolades he's convinced the world he earned are not the results of his own labor, but of those he shamelessly exploited and still today remain unacknowledged.
But I digress, attacks on character are too easy in this scenario. I commend Ms. Dark for her willpower to resist such "low-hanging fruit" as it were.
Bahaha i didnt even need to check that section, but i did anyway and sure enough I was right
Are the guns aiming and shooting automatically?
Yes.
Yeah, looks like a Vampire Survivors clone and that's basically their whole schtick. Since you attack automatically the main gameplay, and difficulty, comes from movement positioning and weapon/powerup choice.
I'm not too versed on him, but I definitely recall that Jaffe has long courted controversy, going back years. He's pretty opinionated, with a history of saying things that are perhaps a bit daft.
These "grifters" have saved me tons of money. Absolutely horrid grifters all things considered.
Maybe guys like him are the reason on why we get these overly preachy, overly pc, overly inclusive written aaa titles. Greenwashing of all things that happen inside those studios.
Just give it some time and pendulum will balance itself out.
tbf I remember he talked some shit about nu God of War a while back (basically he dislikes Kratos' new characterization), and got in trouble for that with the types of people who like the games you're referring to. So I don't think he's really like that.
I get a bit of a The Act Man vibe from him, by which I mean I think he probably does have some strong critical views about the game industry, but he also wants to remain on friendly terms with those working in it and supporting it. Problem is we just don't live in that world anymore. The only way you can be friends with most of those people is if you march in lockstep with them all the way, and he already stepped out of line. His unnecessarily personal attack on Vara Dark was an overcompensation in the opposite direction.
I refuse to believe that he actually gives a shit about the success of Veilguard. imo this whole thing was performative on his part. But what he doesn't realize, or doesn't want to, is that the types of people he was performing for by attacking Vara will never take him back now. He made himself look like a clown for nothing.
