TGWTG Eric Gaede / Asalieri - ChannelAwesome reject that pirates from his peers

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
I can't help but feel he kinda missed the point on that one.
I can summarize that video in one line, "God I wish I had his popularity and money!"

It's literally nitpicking some really stupid shit. Yes, Doug is doing this for the money. Why else would anybody do that as a job? Why else does anybody work? It's incredibly rare to find people who genuinely love their work. I don't mean "don't hate it". No I mean love and they'd continue to do it even if they were getting paid less.

Indeed.
Has Doug rebooted the Nostalgia Critic because he genuinely felt he had more to say about it?
Or was it because nobody cared about his lame pet project Demo Reel and the website lost traffic?

I've seen and even chatted with some Youtubers who said they do their videos because they "are passionate", are not "interested by the views or money", don't want to "sell out" and want to "stay genuine".
Those same Youtubers also proved to be quite exceptional, insecure, hypocritical, whiny and having an oversized ego.
Oh, and making sucky content. And cowering/making-excuses like fragile little bitches when they get well-deserved criticism.

Asa could increase his popularity and viewership if he focused on his "RAR" flagship series, but he is obviously too lazy to do the effort to research, analyze and edit such videos.
(kinda like Chris with the Sonichu comic; too much effort needed!)

If you look at Asa's channel, it's a heck of a kitchen-sink mess where he does many inconsistent types of videos barely reaching 1000 views, obviously making them on impulse like an ADHD child who just rustles through his toys.

Simple shorthand: anyone on the Internet who makes a video complaining about someone selling out is frustrated that no one is buying what they're selling.
I actually thought that Asa's Kickstarter Nightmares to be a good idea undone by his execution; an expose on the dumpster fire that crowdfunding has become.
 
Does anyone else remember the legendary feud between Asalieri and JFreeDan aka The RPG Fanatic aka Carey Martell? Another lolcow in his own right?


It was almost on Solid Chris VS Liquid Chris levels.
And it seemed to have started because Jfreedan didn't like Asa's RAR on him... and Asa joining on mocking Jfreedan for thinking the term "JRPG" was racist.

Almost all videos from that clash are unavailable, but you can find some of them on tudou.com.

Jfreedan was apparently responsible for Asalieri having his first channel deleted with flaggings... (Jfreedan is known as "the running flaggot") Thus the new "Asalieri2" channel.

And yet... for some unknown reason, they seemed to have made peace now! He has never specified why.

And then Retsupurae took that idea and actually made it watchable.

It's sad when you think about it- Asa's got some decent-ish ideas with his "RAR" and "kickstarter Nightmares" videos, but the execution is bleh at best and butthurt at its absolute worst.
 
There's this one guy on YouTube for example who goes by "BlueMagus." He associates with Eric and, judging by the few videos of his that I've seen, generally seems to "borrow" from other, more famous reviewers like Stuart Ashen. I had a chance encounter with him on Skype once (I know someone who's casual friends with him, and he got added to the conversation). You know how everyone seems to know that one nerd who acts like the "alpha" of their circle because they think they have the most knowledge on a particular topic or whatever? That's basically what this guy was like. Hilariously, he's employed at a shitty job and doesn't do shit around his house, letting whoever he lives with (mother or grandmother, not sure which) take care of everything.

I only talked to him that one time, but I actually managed to add Eric himself on Facebook through him. Unfortunately, I was never able to engage him personally. I tried messaging him once or twice, but he never responded and he eventually just deleted me for whatever reason.

Pretty much every person why had the misfortune of coming across BlueMagus has shared the exact same opinions as you. The guy is an overbearing aspergian who always goes on tl;dr/tl;dw long winded screeds towards anything he perceives as being critical of him; he's actually worse than Asalieri in that regard.

Also worth mentioning that, more than two years ago, BlueMagus spread around pics of his small pee pee on Facebook to try and "prank" people or whatever the fuck. And as soon as the predicted blowback took place, his circle of friends went on a relentless gaslighting/flagging campaign to silence his "harassers", but by then the damage was already done.

The "Kickstarter Nightmares" was kinda funny when he went after the bottom of the barrel - of course, I'm talking about "Pony Island" and the "Sacramento Brony Convention". Which reminded me, I saw somewhere people claiming that Asalieri was a brony himself, because he owned some pony figurines and knew the characters' names. Now, that could be because he has a daughter and she was probably a fan of the show (and, for once, the intended audience!).

I consider Asa many things, Brony isn't one of them. The "He has a daughter" excuse may in fact be valid.
 

WTH 2017 results.
ONLY SIX PEOPLE VOTED
Well, "internet reviewers" are dying, so I'd expect the fat mistake that lives from criticizing them would die too. Six people, eh? A whole half dozen! Well, at least he got one video that broke the 1 million view mark, so he can take that to his internet tomb.
 
does anyone know what happened to his WTFU video?
I remember seeing both him and a youtuber named Gaming Goose make one, but they're both off their channels

my best guess what that they both deleted them, but I'd laugh at the irony of it if they both got DMCA'd for copyright on them
 
New "Reviewing A Reviewer". This time on a potential lolcow.
Do you know Robert Q. Seidelman, aka Cyndi Seidelman? Who does a review show called "GameShowGarbage", about reviewing gameshows? Who also happens to be a SJW and tried to do a SJW-inspired gameshow...
Also a "troon". To quote a commenter: "Wow, this guy made less of an attempt at being trans than ChrisChan did. Impressive".

A lot of Asa's videos suddenly go missing without reason. He barely comments on that, and they get mirrored by fans.
