"Zero Punctuation" and "Dev Diary" by Ben "Yahtzee" Croshaw - The only thing worth watching on The Escapist

[Nigor]

I think I once heard him pronounce sloth as "slowth". It's like this guy's never heard another human being speak English. He's almost as bad as Null.

To be fair I've heard sloth pronounced that way on some Ricky Gervais show episodes, maybe it's just a weird British pronunciation or something

Attenborough pronounces it that way too, and I'll be damned if I let someone insult his elocution!

I think it's partially derived from a East/South-East English accent. We also have a town with its primary feature being its ugly-sounding name: Slough, which is pronounced similarly to how they pronounce sloth, since they carry over the pronunciation from one "Slough" (pronounced like "cow" or "plow" or "sow" -> sl+ow) to the other "Sloth" (pronounced like mixing "slow" and "oaf" -> sl+oaf or sl+oaf+th)

Alright I'll give the cripple Yahtzee a pass on sloth.

If you want something good to criticize Yahtzee about, how about him constantly trotting out "the morally-acceptable alternative to Pepe" half a decade after everyone forgot about it.
It's so fucking out of place and embarrassing that I challenge you to picture what I'm talking about without looking it up.

I'm pretty sure Frost took some subliminal shots at Second Wind while talking about the YT ad-cuck deathspiral:

He definitely is. He's just echoing the critiques he had in his exposed video. which are more than fair, half of the runtime of yahtzee's reviews now are sponsorships or self advertisement.

Haven't watched Yathtee in a while, ever since he started to be a fag and bitch about Rowling or Trump. Sad to see the continues with his bullshit, which was a completely pointless and dumb bit. And the review itself is bland and boring.

Can this dude make one fucking video without crying about the mustache man or da nazis? Holy shit
"Well, I am NOT a prude or a moralist BUUUT..."
Yeah, you're totally not a wet vagina. We will forget about your little pathetic outburst in the Hogwarts Legacy review because JK Rowling doesn't like girldick. Or how you dropped the mask recently and started crying about Trump(not cracking jokes at him, sobbing that he is going to put all the hecking valid trannies in concentration camps).

What a fucking faggot. Why would a game "journalist" criticize a 450$ handheld with two hour battery life and the graphical capabilities of the PS3, when he can go "Conservatives BAD" for the billionth time?

Wait..
00:50 Is it actually a problem that an adult game exists in the store? Did he check with an account with an age set as a minor to see if it still appears?
1:40 He seems to imply he doesn't know USB-C exists.
1:50 He doesn't understand basic mechanics of fucking mario kart of all things? Could have even noticed this and looked it up at any point
4:00 Maybe the free roam is some tacked on bullshit because the focus of a mario kart game even since the SNES was multiplayer?

How the fuck does someone involved in gaming for so long, understand so little? There's plenty of actual complaints to be made about the stupid overpriced piece of shit system, including the $80 re-hashed games, but he doesn't even spend much time on that.

Lemme guess... iPhone user? They're the only ones using a different port from every other piece of tech.

Doesn't even mention the price of the console talk about out of touch.

iPhones have been using USB-C since the 15 series

Then how come I still see people use that lightning cable and still see it being sold in stores?

Admittedly the 15 released less than two years ago, there’s probably a few people still using older devices, but no iPhone made currently uses Lightning

A lot of people are still using the old shitty iPhones instead of the new shitty iPhones.

It's not just that. He's doing the same thing he did with Dark Souls, his original review he ended up liking it but purposely avoiding it until (his words) "after watching a decent Let's Play of the game, gone over the wiki a few times and [obvious sarcasm for comedy purposes], I was able to break through the wall" and it wasn't until mid-game that it actually clicked for him, but then in subsequent reviews he's this old Dark Souls superfan who always liked it.

...except in the case of the Switch as a console, he largely disliked it with its uncomfortable controller and stupid gimmick. He used to mock and belittle Nintendo fans, now true to his adopted West Coast journofaggotry will suck off Nintendo at every given moment.

Compounding this issue is that the praise is so shallow ("Grug like Switch, Grug like upgraded Switch"), before he got lobotomized he could at least agree that the Switch 2 didn't introduce some retarded gimmick everyone would get bored with after a year.
