7 Times Games Roasted The Haters 

it’s a level of petty the rest of us can only hope to achieve

It's so brilliant

Stanley

@@randomcatname7792 Stanley

Shame they didn't put that much effort into actually making a good game

Woman, hush, a man was talking.

@@Superfui you ARE joking, right?

@@ThisExists2 Did you really have to ask that?

​@@ebrandt9698 Welcome to your first day on the internet. Let me just warn you that people with that opinion, and waaaaaaaay worse ones, unironically exist. (I'm pretty sure they were joking, especially here, but I wouldn't bet a farthing on it)

Ngl I was starting to think that maybe they were a little mean towerd him, but that sexist remark just made me lose any sympathy I had for him. Fuck that guy.

yup, that was the part i was like "ok f you dude"

I love how he complains about not having any choices in a game that's all about making choices. Did he just follow the narrator's instructions the whole way through and assume that was all there was? Or perhaps he was upset he couldn't dash around like a ninja while mowing down hordes of zombies to save a princess in a bikini or something. Either way, a prime example of a very logical and rational person, clearly.

@@gremlin4304 The logical-est

Haven't gone back and rewatched that trailer but I believe Raphael mentions he is both highly logical and highly emotional and then iirc in the fake "Raphael version" there were, like, logic and emotion sliders which if you turned them both up would activate Raphael mode

The power of appeal is strong.

A joke that unfortunately got lost in translation

@@ArceusDX you could say it was a joke lost in transition.

@@ArceusDX Well that WAS the translation. Originally she said something like "and aren't you a man?" Basically implying that he was a coward. Which, y'know, very uncomfortable baggage there that you'd think a goddess would be above.

@@bluewilliams4911 I applaud 👏 you sir.

iconic and accurate pfp

Still a bad character choice. Gatekeeper or Rhea would have been better, let alone the countless other FE picks.

The funny thing about the Byleth drama (at least for me) was that some of smash players who hated Byleth joining the Smash Brothers had either Dante from Devil May Cry or Ryu Hayabusa from Ninja Gaiden as the anticipated characters to join, which also uses sword as the main weapon

@@MisterHeroman tiki, any 3 houses lord, hector, anna(with bow or axe) micaiah, seriously so much to pick from but just like zelda we get the same boring reps while ignoring far better options

@@Eccegato For me, it wasn't about being a Sword users. I just think DLC should fare better if the spots was for Guests than Nintendo's own Rep (Which at least majority of them are). I never hate any of the entries tho and that's their decisions to make who get in the roster, just that it could be better.

All those years of therapy...and then this video shows him the clip and tells him that.

I can't stop watching that part

Now we know how and when Luigi developed the Death Stare

boi luigi is my favorite video game character

The irony being that in the game itself, Luigi is actually pretty strong.

I bloody hope so!

Yeah, I mean, how else are they gunna pay to look at memes?

I think that was Andy's plan all along.

@@shotgunshells2 he's a genius!

There's a Guacamelee 3?

Wait, I need a little more context on this one. Are those comments not written by other players who see the uploaded photos? If the are, that's not really the game roasting the haters, is it? It's still just us players doing it.

@@Nyahahameha Nope, it’s the devs providing a preset list of comments to choose from.

@@worldsboss Ohhhhhhh, okay. That is way more hilarious than what I thought was happening. XD I think the video could have made that clearer.

Amazing! I think a similar thing happened with the english translation from french of The Magic Roundabout, the narrator just wrote new scripts based on the visuals, which is why it's so trippy lol

I am one of those still quoting it, yeah. I was heartbroken when they took it off the air. Thank goodness for the internet, though. ^_^

Oh yeah, the show is low-key hilarious.

Jeah it was no big success in Japan and they did put no live into the original translation. So the publishers in the USA wrote a new script which was then used in Europe too I think. The German version was genius „You will do as I say or I will not invite you to my birthday party.”

One of my absolute favourites from childhood. When they finally released it on DVD I was over the moon. "It's another slow zoom, I hate new directors!"

Damn. Should have named him Tom Jackson.

Was that one about learning from mistakes? "This is everybody's fault but mine!" Gold

@@toratio8547 There was also his "I can't work under these conditions"

@@archangel510 ​ And hinting at GTA Definitive Edition being the inspiration for the list for the worst remasters. After nearly shouting Is that comic sans?! For Silent Hill 2 and 3 remaster 😂🤣😂🤣 Which was almost as brilliant as What the hell was that?! when Death Stranding:Director’s Cut was announced 😂🤣😂🤣😂

There's also the XIII remake for terrible remasters/remakes.

Theres another video like this.

I like how “Clive Owen” is an emotion

Joke's on them. You weren't pausing the video for The Stanley Parable Raphael Trailer, you were pausing a video about games roasting their haters.

Having more weapons didn't make Byleth a good choice.

@@MetaKnight964 not having this discussion today.

Just shows how Byleth is such a cool character. 😎

ok hear me out people wern't mad at byleth as a fighter they were anoyed at them as a character

@@adhdnd8140 It's a fighting game. Byleth "as a character" is irrelevant.

yup, and relatable.......please tell me i'm cool i'm not sure i can take not being told it :(

Sure, mock crying

@Scott's Precious Little Account Woosh

Sora doesn't us a sword,

@@MetaKnight964 That is the joke and it intentionally misses the point.

I lost it at "Clive Owen" as an emotion

yeah i love that game and until very recently had no idea that the creator of stanley parable, Davey was also the brother of one of my all time favourite streamers, dougdoug!

My favourite emotion is "You're really stopping the video to read these? Why?"

I legit had to stop the video and back up to see that again, lol!

on the other hand the user base of the No Mutants Allowed forums are so toxic and resistant to changes in the franchise some of them don't even like Fallout *2*

As someone who loves Diablo 1 and 2 (not you Diablo 3! Sit down trash!), Dark Alliance 1 and 2 and Champions or Norath 1 and 2 (2 games seems to be the sweet spot for developers) I didn't think the game looked all that bad. I never played it, so it could be a broken version of those games for all I know, but I didn't think the gameplay was anything different from what you'd find in any top down dungeon crawler

Nobody came out of that covered in glory. Brotherhood of Steel was shit*, but the reaction just to it being announced was, well, fucking unhinged. *Still broke the lore less than Bethesda though.

Deadly Alliance 1 and 2?

Speaking of games that worked wonders only on their first two main installments, OXbox/OXtra better make an arguable list for that: I'll recommend Turok, Dead Space, Homeworld (assuming Cataclysm/Emergence is the second installment, while Deserts of Kharak is a spin-off), Command and Conquer: Red Alert, Serious Sam (talking about The First and Second Encounters), Commandos, Fable, and Baldur's Gate easily.

She keeps Andy around to torment and collect his tears. Mike, of course, has learned to become immune to her torment

@@toratio8547 More like Mike is an under-study who fills in when Jane needs a holiday.

@Scott's Precious Little Account *gasp* ... this... surely this cannot be true! My worldview... is shattered!

That was a bit of masterful design. really took it to the next level. :D

Not only did they make the cocktail to roast the one hater but they did so knowing that that hater would then be forced to make and drink it

What game was this and what happened?

Also curious about the game/cocktail

@@empoleonmaster6709 That was Hitman 2, which placed a cocktail recipe in the Isle of Sgail level to spite Andy for his complaints about the Colorado level of Hitman 1. And this being back in the great era of videogame cocktail videos for OX, they made the cocktail in a video... and did not enjoy it. If I don't misremember, one of the developers actually got a chance to ask Andy what he didn't enjoy in a cocktail so they knew what to write in the recipe.

Don't see her enough honestly. I finished my first run giving her the ring. I'm on my second run, I was trying to go to Edelgard, but apparently I missed the window to join her so now I am stuck in a run without a House Leader...

@@Jay9966 yeah, silver snow is... Well, I'll let you make up your own mind, but it's not my favourite route, that's for sure.

@@mattball8622 I think it's too similar to my previous run, which was Golden Deer, we meet back at the church place and we took that as a base and is going from there. I had planned to play an Edelgard run then a Demetri run, but goddamn, why did the Edelgard run have to be so easy to miss... Well, I am planning to give the ring to Leonie this time round I guess, I tried to the first time round but I was using female Byleth. Sad that there are almost no options for F Byleth. Can't be gay with Leonie or Hilda but damn you can give the ring to Hanneman...I like him in game since he's a good magic attacker but I'll be damned if I chose him as a romance option.

@@Jay9966 Yep, it's basically Verdant Wind but sadder and a bit more plodding, haha. It's also tricky if you haven't recruited well in the Academy phase, since El's an absolute beast and replacing her is hard. I had a similar problem in my first run (which was actually Silver Snow) in that I wanted to marry Petra but couldn't. Ended up marrying Dorothea though, so I'm definitely not complaining. Leonie is great, she's got some of the funniest supports! Her one with Felix is genuinely brilliant.

@@mattball8622 Oh, I recruited everyone that can be recruited lol. I realized my mistake of not recruiting much in my first run. Besides, I am playing on Normal and Casual and I grind from time to time on aux battles. Although, it's sad how Hilda is unrecruitable until after Edelgard left me, so it's a bit of work to get her up to a good level. Petra is cute, I'll definitely pick her in the future, but Leonie and Bernadetta definitely my top girls after Hilda. Picked Golden Deer for Hilda but married Sothis because I was curious but I'll get to them all eventually hahaha.

It was also a huge point of debate when the initial games released so I'm pretty sure the ign review was itself a meme/roast of the initial reviews and complaints about there being too much water in ruby/sapp/emerald. Ofc it's a new generation of fans who have no idea those games even exists it seems

@@why.should_i We all missed the joke

The reviewer voiced her complaints very well in a proper way. This is what annoys me so much about the subject: that most people didn't actually read the actual review and only focused on the blurb at the end. The review simply pointed out that there was an excessive focus on water areas and Pokemon, taking away a lot of the variety, particularly in comparison to the other title released, that didn't have this problem. But of course, you can't expect the internet to be logical or fair when they can be antagonistic instead.

i think LOTRO fans know the pain of too much water

@@Dreadjaws these same ppl _only_ read the HEADLINES & are therefore an authority on the details of those articles :/

The yup part before saying Konami seems really unnecessary.

@@Darcnhife People really look at the smallest details just to find a reason to complain, huh?

@@crys3465 yes, yes they do.

@Scott's Precious Little Account its from that video 9 bosses with weird weaknesses it's from psychonauts

agreed every game should do it.

Be careful.... You could be the next one

To be fair Byleth was a bad choice being it was just another Fire Emblem character.

@@MetaKnight964 heaven forbid Nintendo throw the main character from one of its own franchises into their game.

@@ultrawhitebread that is the thing though, fire emblem has a huge roster of characters to choose from, and they went with the main character, instead they could have done the four character switch up, giving us the head of each faction in the game that you can side with, at least the four most are familiar with, it would have added more variety and different playstyles than just another sword user, plus they could have made a little bit more with a choice for people to buy the characters individually or in a pass.

Yeah it makes me laugh. That argument that there's too many from Fire Emblem is odd. Count thr characters from each franchise. A ton from Mario. A ton from Zelda. Ppl need to be quiet.

Sephiroth us iconic, ff7 changed gaming. A fire emblem game released in 2020? Not so much

that rafael guy sounds fake tbh

@@letsmakeit110 possibly. Still funny though.

@@letsmakeit110 You'd think, but there really are humans out there that are that dumb/horrible, ESPECIALLY on the internet. Because they have the veil of anonymity on their side, so they think that they can just say whatever they want.

@@fivestarguy100 what set the alarm bells for me is that this character has a lot of (rightfully) unpopular opinions which he doesn't attempt to justify or support in any way. Usually ppl know when theyre in the minority so they'll add some substance to support what they're saying. But obv the stanley parable people can't publish "women are things because x,y,z."

Sounds almost as bad at the game reviewer of Cup Head who couldn't figure out the tutorial jump dash with the instructions on the screen.

"who do you like to have sex with?" "men and women." "great. Are you white?" "only 95%, I identify as a minority. My degree in intersectionality taught me that." "perfect, you're hired. Do you like video games?" "I hate them." "OK you're going to be the editor." -modern gaming journalism

🔥BURN🔥 lulz

Well if you have an ACTUAL legitimate constructive criticism.... You can y'know.... Put a little more effort in not sounding like an entitled asshole.... Just saying. If you act like a fucking asshole and just be like "this game is bad cause of this this an that".... You are ASKING to be made fun of, you DO NOT need the shitty attitude. There's so many ways to not look like an entitled asshole. Like saying "I'm honestly not trying to just shit on the game, these are just some things that in my view could be improved upon". Good criticism has 2 sides, to show the goods parts and acknowledge them and explain how the bad parts could be improved. Not acknowledging any good parts is just criticism

@@ameladaptivedaydreamer949 And there we are. Try reading comprehension.

Do elaborate, please

@@DiamondAppendixVODs It’s hard for me to explain. Lemme try and find a link to what I’m talking about.

@@DiamondAppendixVODs OK, where’d the link I sent you go?

@@cleffa173YT must’ve auto deleted it. Maybe if you share the name of the vid, it won’t get deleted.

@@IamaPERSON It wasn’t a video. It was a Reddit post.

Gothic is famous for that too.

They could put the Bandit enemies from Paper Mario: TTYD on there (don't know if they appear in the others). If they grab an item, the only way to get it back is to have Ms. Mowz (an optional party member) steal it back. If you defeat them while they have an item, you don't get its back. The Pit of 100 Trials even has an elite variant that can steal your badges.

with more weapons than just a sword as well. makes them kind of awkward to play as first though

@@Underworlder5 Yeah, Sothis gives those to Byleth because she was amused by Byleth's "solution." I like Byleth in Smash a lot, though--prolly my main, actually.

I just want to point out every Fire Emblem character in Smash has a chargeable neutral special

Came here from the Tekken 8 announcement too, huh?

It wasn't a review. The guy personally wrote to them. Of course they took it personally.

That is fantastic.

I love that jumper so much!

Unfortunately the aesthetics weren't the issue with that game. I hate the common practice of taking great RPGs and dumbing them down. Elder Scrolls from 3-5 is insanely different, losing so much of what made it a roleplaying game. Mass Effect taking away most abilities, all weapon and armor upgrades was disappointing and then Diablo 3...you have the exact same attacks, just a small modification instead of building a character the way you desire. Diablo 2 my druid was a summoner/Were. I rarely used elemental attacks, if ever because I had strong summons and my Were forms were strong. I'm betting it's gonna be the same shit for 4. We're gonna be given the same 5 or 6 abilities with a minor mod tacked on. Otherwise all builds are precisely the same

They definitely talked about Whimsyshire before. I think this video is a part two?

@@bwestacado9643 What's with your hate-boner for Diablo 3? It's a good game

@@nashvontookus7451 My entire comment lays out the fuckin answer to the rhubarbed question. What's even more interesting, is the entire comment breaks down the issue across multiple titles before explaining the differences between 2 and 3. They water down the rpg mechanics to appeal to the braindead masses. The crybabies who said Mass Effect was "over complicated with too much menu", so we lost a ton of ability options, armor options, armor upgrades and all weapon upgrades. They had to snuff out the complicated rpg mechanics to appease the smooth brains who can't be bothered to do more than depress the trigger. This is a common theme across the business, where a bunch of spectrum riders come together and decide something is just too hard for them and must be washed away...cleansed of what makes them think. People like you are why the Soulsborne games are necessary. We actually have to make classic gaming into a genre and then spend every year having to gatekeep it from you lot. "ItS tOo HaRd!" Good

@@bwestacado9643 Your entire comment is little moee than self-important drivel and a glaring fear of even slight change. Which you copy/paste incessantly all over the comments of people who say good things about Diablo.

Biker Mice from Mars was an exceptional cartoon, Street Sharks was okay too.

I am the opposite. I saw Street Sharks but never heard of Moo Mesa!

@@coaxtl1413 That has to be some regional thing. I had never heard about Moo Mesa before this video but Street Sharks and other TMNT clones were familiar. I live in Finland I watched plenty of 1990's cartoons from TV.

I still have one of the action figures from Moo Masa. It’s the orange cow. Street Sharks was awesome too.

@@Pehmokettu that could be! I’m in Canada and, while we do get a lot of American stuff, we don’t get everything!

Me too. I was LAUGHING like a maniac when they were reveal. I remember people crying in the comments and me just enjoying their tears as I laugh 🤣🤣🤣🤣

It was amazing honestly. The fact people were willing to cry so hard about swordsmen, when newsflash: most of the other fighters that they wanted were STILL swordsman.

@@ameladaptivedaydreamer949 personally, i was just disappointed. they got K rool, they got ridley, they got banjo & kazooie, yet all it took was one character they did not like and they throw a massive tantrum. sakurai has spoiled the fans

@@Underworlder5 K Rool, Ridley, and Banjo only appeal to western games. Sakurai wanted to take a break and design a character that might appeal to the Japanese. Strategy games are usually taken more seriously in Japan.

"stanley, stanley, stanley, stanley, stanley, stanley, stanley" take that rafael......it's not the games fault your parents h@te you.

that's a diff kind of game--

That's what AO3 is for. 😅

Is it even possible to group hug people in Smash Bros?

Andy is truly a mood

Stanley

If they did, the gaming community would be even more toxic, just saying.
