It was very well written. The punch line at the end was perfect.
Arin Hanson / Egoraptor / Grump - "Hey I'm Grump!" of Game Grumps fame, hypocritical SJW doxer, shat himself recording a let's play

Help! Help! An Iranian Mongol is appropriating my culture! Jokes aside this makes me wish Jontron would start more openly aping game grumps and start building his own media empire.

Can somebody break down what happens in the Twilight Princess video?
Because I'd rather not see my favorite game during my high school years being shat on by a biased manchild with a weird rubber neck.

Man who hasn’t animated in 6+ years thinks he can give can commentary on animation.
Context: op is a clip of a Tom and Jerry short presented in 60fps.

Usually that's how these kinds of people work.
A successful animator who sold out for cheap lps doesn't have integrity?
Nooo there must be some mistake

Well if he didn't piss off enough people by showing how ill-equipped he was to take on Zelda he'll sure as shit do with Tom and Jerry.
Edit: Leaked footage from the future of a MGM animator in heaven laughing at Arin's Tom and Jerry video.

Fun thing to note in relation to Null's floraverse stream. Arin's been following her for a long ass time, including when the logs of her ex-husband grooming a kid to visit her place and fuck a dog came up.

Watching Arin fuck up Ocarina of Time was one of the few times I've felt genuine hatred towards an internet person. Then it was fun with Majora's Mask because I never played that one so I got to figure out the solution 10 minutes before Arin just by looking at the screen.
Arin's "animation credentials" are the dumbest thing ever. He made Newgrounds videos that impressed everyone when they were a teenager, big deal. I liked those stick figure games back in the day, if I'd programmed one and moved on I wouldn't call myself a programmer.

The sad thing is, you actually saw improvement with his animations as time went on. What didn't change was his sense of humor, and there shouldn't be anything wrong with that. I know plenty of people who laugh at edgy stupid shit that we found legitimately funny in high-school. His problem is he still does the mush-mouthed illiterate stumbling around like a drunk 3 year old who's snorting pixie sticks. And when you incorporate that into a medium where your voice is the most prominent interaction you have with your audience, you're shooting yourself in the foot. If he kept up with animation and focused on it for work, he could've had a serious job years ago.

He had a "serious job" in animation for Fox years ago, but he quit or something because he didn't like working for someone else in a creative environment.

Unless he pitches his own show and it gets greenlit by a major animation company like cartoon network, he will never not work for someone.
He became complacent. It shows. He can't take criticism and has a rabid hateboner for things that challenge things he likes. This would translate terribly to a working environment like animation. Fuck I'm a writer for a comic and I still have to answer to the editors and directors. Just because I take the story into certain places doesn't mean I have free reign.

If anything Jon is living proof you can go under some heavy fire and then come back doing what you love and your people will flock to you. Goddamn Arin and Danny scratch their heads and blame everything else while Jontronshow now has more subscribers to his channel that has EXCELLED in the past two years compared to the six years ago he left Gamegrumps. It's funny how Jon puts out literally not even 1/1000 of the videos GG craps out and has more subscribers.

People like the Grumps, (or hell since I mentioned him earlier, NerdCubed) need to realize that the YouTube algorithm isn't a end all be all death sentence that excuses everything you do. People like Ashens and Captain Disillusion managed to have plenty of success on YouTube. This is despite having to deal with all the algorithm changes over the decade they've been on the site, and doing their own style content separate from everything else. Or for a gaming example look at Chuggaaconroy, he's still able to make a living despite having considerably worse views than the Grumps. But no, it's the fucking algorithm innit? it has to be the algorithm, it can't be anything I'm doing that's causing it, I only have fifty employees and a warehouse after all.

I think his Flex Tape 2 Video was #1 trending at a point. Also who needs trending when his Flex Tape 1 video was a meme machine which is pretty much free viral advertising.

I hate to drag the conversation back into the Oney vs Egoraptor comparisons but here we are. Oney at least attempted to bring his work into the mainstream, it didn’t work out in the end, sure. But at the very least he attempted. Arin is content to bring in the cash from Grumps and not do a single thing with it other than pay people to animate for him and occasionally pay the people that work on the channel. Sure they probably used the money to make Dream Daddy, but that venture was just because, not for any interest in continuing to make games for their audience. Meanwhile Oney makes it no secret that he’s using the money he makes from monetization and product sales for funding his own games.

The difference between Chris and Arin is night and day. Chris want's to make things and give back to the people using the money he earns or is given. Arin just wants to put in the minimum amount of effort possible but still get paid while cashing in on trends.
It's more emblematic of the era he was from. His whole schtick is stagnant because it's so formulaic. Exaggeration and loud noises only get you so far and it's increasingly apparent he has no other material to work from besides a totally scintillating tale regarding his recent adventures in retail with those peasants who bring him his food. How dare they ask if he wants his sub toasted; you're gonna be lambasted on my internet gaming show because you didn't read my mind! It's just pathetic.
Meanwhile, Chris has always been weird.

If I’m not mistaken Mystic Messenger (a visual dating game) was popular that year, Dream Daddy was just a cash in on that hype.
