I wonder what's with Larry and him constantly poking fun of Peter Molyneux. Is it because he left the games unfinished like Godus? Or promising too much on his games? In fairness, he made games like the Fable series, though...

@@mahiru20ten Every single game that Molyneaux has released has been overpromised and underdelivered. His whole career is a pile of lies, including how he got his first job as a developer - by lying on his CV.

@@fandangobrandango7864 it was not false. Sony/ND used a law firm and that law firm filed the copyright strikes against the RU-vid videos. Legally and literally, Sony/ND were at fault. The law firm was just there to enact their illegal take downs.

@@Larry oooooo

@@Larry I have to disagree on one thing. In the last of us 2 they weren't unhappy the women were "plain" (they were just as plain in the first one). They were upset that one woman in particular looked like a male who spends 4 hours a day in the gym and got plenty of protein. With the help of HGH and a lot of time in a gym a woman can sort of look like that, but it was kinda unrealistic in a post apocalyptic setting.(not many gyms, protein shakes, or human growth hormones to go around) There was actually a lot of speculation that the character was originally meant to be transgender until those leaks.

Yeah, he was far too forgiving on BFV, you can tell which side he agrees with.

They can support an SMG as an off-hand as shown in the trailer, just not effectively (a stump could do it too). But yeah, you can tell they just rigged a prosthetic arm onto a standard model for the trailer animation (the wrist rotates on their own a couple times, which is not really possible on a period split hook) - makes me wonder if originally she didn't have a prosthetic arm and it was a late change.

@@garfieif8187 its what happens when a country politicizes its mental healthcare system. Yes there are people out there that believe what they see on TV is real. Yes they really are crazy. You can thank Democrat parents that want their mentally retarded kids and psychopaths to be treated the same as normal kids for the state of our mental health care system in the US.

MrHunterseeker Yeah you’re wrong. Thank the concentrated efforts of Republicans to destroy social safety nets and actual access to healthcare. Look into the massive closures of state mental hospitals during the late 90’s for examples. Or you can just keep parroting hateful and ableist rhetoric you got from Fox News.

You're both right- the private sector made an effective system for mental health, which the government got involved in. They then flooded the system with old people and attempted to compensate with state funds, which were generally nowhere near enough. Not willing to admit the mistake, they then simply brushed it off as the asylums being a bad idea, cut funding, and left the regulatory floodgate open, ensuring that public hospitals would be cheaper and not need mental wards, while also creating a self-fulfilling prophecy where the asylums would fail and be hated.

That's... weird, and sounds rather disrespectful to the man. But I'm curious, were the Wii U/3DS versions indeed worse for the changes or did they turn out to be an improvement despite Yuji Naka's feelings?

@@LonelySpaceDetective they were worse in quite some aspects, even the visuals somehow were worse compared to the wii

@@LonelySpaceDetective Yes, worse in all ways. For example, the Wii version has more enemies on-screen at once, less glitches, and is a more polished experience all around.

Ah yes I always wondered that... the wii version has such nightmarish controllers Sad since the game could have been good

kinda sad that the 3ds and Wii U versions didn't take advantage of the gyroscoping feature. I'm probably gonna restart it but with the Wii version.

How about the deceitful trailers blatantly lying about the story. TLOU2 is one seriously nasty entertainment property.

They sent DMCAs to websites as well.

Double plot twist: they were all Squidward

Shhh

Yeah. It was a pretty dumb trailer. The dumb reaction the community had was worse in my book. Since I think one should judge a game based on, you know, the game. Not it's trailer. It was very strange to see some rally against historical inaccuracies when previous games were full of them to. As for how the game turned out? Not sure. Not played it. EA did not release games beyond their own platform at the time. And the game seemed to have to lootbox sickness like most EA games. And that is beyond the fact that I am not super in to those sorts of shooter, even tend to favour Battlefield's combined arms. So never really picked it up.

@@Cythil But the trailer exists for the sole purpose of selling you on the game. Putting its best foot forward, and getting you invested. Admittedly, this applies more to movies, since games tend to use their trailers as more of a 'put an animated movie here, and we'll hope they don't ask about gameplay'.

@@Cythil Honestly they did it pretty bad, they had to gender swap people to get extra females into the game...even though there are plenty of actual stories of women in WW2 that did amazingly heroic things...

People being casually sexist were worse

@@Rpground Well, yeah, but most of these were on the Russian front, and in order to make a game about THAT, you'd have to go well outside of the usual cheap "AMERICA GOOD, NAZIS BAD!" pablum that most WW2 games have been for 20 years.

It seems blue light irritation is a thing, but greatly overexaggerated and can probably be avoided by just not looking at devices before bed. www.health.harvard.edu/blog/will-blue-light-from-electronic-devices-increase-my-risk-of-macular-degeneration-and-blindness-2019040816365

Red light is actually worse.

Don't assume tis purely for that. Effects of Blue Light on Lens Cataracts are one of the leading causes of blindness worldwide, which is the result of lens opacity[10]. As early as the 1980s, people realized that the lens provides not only the main optical power (in diopters) but also can effectively filter short light waves in order to reduce retinal light damage occurrence. The lens contains structural proteins, enzymes, and protein metabolites that absorb short wave light. These substances and derivatives are added to the lens's protein to produce yellow pigments in the lens's protein, causing the lens gradually darkens and turns yellow. The absorption blue light by the lens increases significantly, thus blocking potential blue light retinal damage[11]. However, when it exerts its protective effect on the retina, the lens has to undergo a decrease in transparency or color change, which leads to cataract formation. As we all know, Sunlight exposure is considered to be a risk factor for cataracts. Studies have shown that blue light can induce the production of ROS in the mitochondria of lens epithelial cells (hLECs), which may lead to the development of cataracts[12]-[13]. In a very recent study, oxidative stress was considered an important medium in the pathogenesis of age-related cataracts. The use of added antioxidants is a reasonable strategy for protecting antioxidant defense systems from oxidative stress, and studies have shown that an increase in antioxidant enzyme expressions in hLECs directly scavenge free radicals in order to reduce hydrogen peroxide's effects. Apoptosis and ROS accumulation can keep the lens clear and slow down cataract occurrence and development[14]. In the eye, carotenoid lutein (L) and zeaxanthin (Z) are effective antioxidants and are the only carotenoids found in the lens. They have the characteristics of compounds that absorb short-wave blue light[15]. Research data show that L or Z can protect the lens's proteins, lipids, and DNA from oxidative damage. During oxidative stress, the redox state of these antioxidants can be improved, thus providing protection for the lens[16]. Effects of Blue Light on Retina Retina is the initial site of vision formation, and it is also the lesion site of various blinding eye diseases. It plays an important role in preventing blindness. Blue light can penetrate through lens to the retina and cause retinal photochemical damage. At present, there are relatively many studies on blue light's effects on the retina, but they are still being debated. Retinal degeneration and morphological changes The effects of blue light- and light-emitting diode (LED)-induced irradiation on retinal function and morphology were studied by Kim et al[17]. The results showed that the a and b amplitude of the electroretinogram decreased after blue light irradiation. After activation of microglia cells, they then migrated to the phagocytic fragment of the outer nuclear layer as seen under the electron microscope. In age-related macular degeneration (AMD) patients, there were many activated microglia infiltrating the outer nuclear layer of the retinal rod-shaped cell death region[17]-[18], and some studies have shown that blue light can accelerate AMD occurrence and development after cataract surgery that occurred many years previously. In addition, an experimental study about blue light-induced oxidative stress injury on rabbit retinas showed that the rabbit retinas after 24h of blue light irradiation had become disordered in the inner and outer segments of the photoreceptor cells when compared with the normal control group. The outer retinal nuclei were scattered in the edematous cells, and the photoreceptor cells were mildly disordered. The more disordered the cell arrangement, the lower the thickness of the outer nuclear layer[19]. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6288536/ US National Library of Medicine National Institudes of Health.

Drew Johnson I don’t think anyone was expecting it to be a documentary, but when you take the accomplishments of real soldiers and say a teenage girl caring for her sick mother did it, that’s disrespectful of the people who fought there already, much less when you claim your wanting to tell the stories of WW2. There’s also the mission where they took a battle the US Army fought and replaced them with the French soldiers, which takes away from the battles both sides went through IRL.

@@drewjohnson9498 The point was more that instead of going "dude, it's not a documentary, Battlefield has always rewritten history pretty hard. Why is it a problem this time?" they went "it's actually historically accurate, you sexists, so shut up". Antagonizing your audience is bad enough already when you're NOT misrepresenting your product.

@The aqua mage As i said, i honestly doubt many people were expecting Post Scriptum, or a documentary. I mean, there were likely a few, but they honestly had no effect in the success of the game. The thing is, BFV didn’t even follow BF1’s style of historical authenticity. BF1 was only historically inaccurate in weaponry, everything else had at least some basis in reality. Black soldiers in the German Empire faction in game? They are based of German colonial troops. Indians/Sikh soldiers in the British faction? They’re Ghurka’s. What does BFV bring to historical authenticity? Nothing really. The uniforms weren’t even accurate to the colors or materials, with them only adding in proper UK and GER uniforms in the final content update. Of course, you can’t not avoid the fact that prior to release, they were gonna allow prosthetics that’d work better than what’s possible right now in a WW2 game, and the fact that them just throwing random women into the game for the sake of “diversity” only takes away from the badassery of the few women who were serve during that time expressed. BF1 had accurate portrayal of women, with women playable in the Red Army Scout class. But what’s even more egregious is the War Stories mode, in which they marketed as telling the unknown stories of WW2, completely spitting in the face of the people who fought, suffered, and died during the conflict. I mean, “fuck all the Norwegian and British special forces who sabotaged the heavy water facility, let’s make it a fucking teenage girl doing it all by herself.” “We can’t forget to include minority representation, so let’s take a battle the Americans fought in and replace them with French colonial troops. Who cares if it takes away from both the accomplishments? Why should we spend the time to actually give a good approximation of the accomplishments of black French army soldiers? Let’s give them an American battle and call it a day!” People were rightfully unhappy, and DICE made it worse by insulting them, and trying to dehumanize them. I find the want for historical authenticity in to gaming community to be far from overblown.

@The aqua mage How is asking that a WW2 game marketed as a somewhat accurate portrayal of battle in a real war be somewhat accurate, mean that the community is horrible? The people who complain about the people complaining are more toxic.

You nailed it.

Oddly enough though, they did include Postal III as part of that recent POSTAL collection IIRC, and they've historically given away Postal III keys to anyone who tweets them proof of an otherwise complete POSTAL collection on Steam and asks for it. It seems like their philosophy on the matter is less "don't buy this, ever" and more "don't buy this, unless it is just a bonus to whatever you bought/are buying".

@@LonelySpaceDetective Well I would not wanna pay money for that game it is bad

Worst part is probably that even today, Epic and Steam Borderlands 3 multiplayer crossplay is riddled with bugs. Considering Gearbox attitude, I'd imagine it is on purpose just to mess with anyone who didn't move over and play it only on epic store instead of trying to stay on Steam.

Larry's criticism was that people were leaving negative reviews of a completely different game. That is an abuse of a user review system, regardless of how justified it may or may not be. Again, the only criticism that matters is that which hurts their bottom line, so a boycott would be far more effective. Get the game to fall far short of sales expectations. Yes, they will respond by blaming the poor sales on something else, and continue on, so boycott their next game too, and the next one, and the next one, until finally they are forced to listen, as the company's shareholders are now livid.

@@crazydud3380 That's just flat out incorrect. Reviews matter a lot to a company. They provide a good standard to start off with before the games release, which is why companies will send out review copies; so these games have a good score right out the gates. So review-bombing is a _very_ effective way of getting the developer's attention at the _very_ least. In fact, it's one of the few ways people _can_ reliably catch a developer's attention, let alone vocalize their distaste for the direction a game is heading in. You can call it improper abuse of a system all you want, but steam 100% made the correct decision in deciding _not_ to censor the players' distaste for where Gearbox was taking BL3. Players need their voices to be heard, and sadly, if you paid any attention in the past decade, you'd realize people don't really _have_ a way to do that. For most, review-bombing is the next best alternative to express discontent, whether you like it or not. TL;DR: Good fucking luck getting people to boycott any game in this day and age where there are plenty of people willing to criticize a game harshly and then buy it anyway lol. Happened with sword and shield. Happened with BL3. It's not reliable because *_nobody does it enough to make it a viable strategy._* Literally fucking nobody. And if people _are_ doing it, it's because the game was going to flop anyway.

A similar kind of thing happened with Assassin's Creed Odyssey. Kassandra was only a playable character because of reasons. That wasn't initially going to happen.

@SolidVault The full reason's a bit more nuanced. Namely one of the selling points for the game was that your character could romance various different people of either gender only for new story added to force your character to get together with a particular other character and have a child.

@SolidVault I didn't actually know that

@SolidVault I'm a bit annoyed at that, but it does make sense for continuing the bloodline.

@@PixelatedH2O IIRC it was Alexios that was made playable because the same guy that got kicked out for assaulting and sexually harassing some of his underlings insisted on there being a playable "alpha male" character. Same with Origins but there they weren't allowed to keep the female character playable. Also the guy is apparently the one responsible for blocking every attempt at a Beyond Good and Evil sequel until it got triple A-d into that 2edgy4u trailer we got some time ago.

@Oboroth 777 Women were tankers, Engineers, snipers. All in a war that had flexible battle lines. There isn't such a thing as "front line" if you weren't artillery (and even then sometimes) you had a real chance of getting fired on just like any other soldier. And "so many" in comparison to the western powers. Dismissive prick

thanks bud :)

Only when it doesn't involve shoving politics and SJW views down other peoples throats.

@@cattysplat Fuck off back to Reddit, dude. It's not 2014 anymore. Gamergate is over.

I just saw it this weekend the first time and judging by the pound symbols on it, it was probably directly imported from the UK.

@@Dr0dd Oh, seriously. It doesn't seem like something worth importing. I don't know what it is with the UK and turning mobile games into arcade machines. We've got crossy roads too.

@@AizakkuAnalysis I was surprised when I found one at Twin Water(?), some mall here in Lagos.

Thank you!

Ouch 😆🔥🔥

We just gonna act like TLOU2 isn't real or? Sony moment

Same for Sony when your on PC cause better experience and PS5 games that people like to bring up 1 of them Spider-Man ran on a PS4 pro cause it’s cross platform. I’m excited that they’re also porting them to PC

Happens with a LOT of games that are console "exclusives" despite being developed for PC and the "exclusive" console version is a downgrade of the actual PC version they have to sit on and pretend doesn't exist until the exclusivity deal runs out. Though in these cases they can't actually SAY they don't want you to buy it.

Pikachu132 when exclusives don’t stay exclusive it’s makes them more money than being on 1 piece of plastic. Which generally means better experience and or more people get to play it. I’m pumped that Microsoft bought all of companies that Bethesda is has which I forgot the higher up company

It is, but it's a very... Liberal take on the whole disaster

@@MaxiemumKarnage Seemed pretty neutral.

@@kexxrulz it wasnt. literally revised history.

@@Donn66 What did Larry revise my good man? Please, tell us!

@@MaxiemumKarnage Lareey is kinda on the other side, sadly. Did not really get into why the whole thing was just not era appropriate.

ah thanks dude, will so! Also, if you ever feel like translating any of mine in future let me know!

no worries, I'm so pleased you enjoy watching them :)

Of course... Your here

Ooh, hey.

they didn't have to tell people to not buy their game. no one wanted to anyway.

*you*

I just saw you on a some ordinaries gamers vid
