He seems to think he knows better than every game developer whenever he runs into anything that he can't immediately faceroll so yeah, it's this.


If I became leader of the world, I would make Phil play SF V online with one of the developers sitting next to him, pointing out all the errors are all his and there is no such thing as free hits or lag patterns.
 
Edit: Phil just said he does run ads on twitch but has absolutely no idea if the ad benefits him or twitch?
How does Phil not know if he gets money from running ads? He told the court that Burnell Productions provided on demand and live video streaming services. You would think the CEO of a streaming service provider would know that kind of thing.

Wait, what? Assassins Creed 1 and 2 are incredible

AC1 is literally just a gameplay loop of "eaves drop on X, follow Y, kill Z" for 25 hours straight. Was the scope of it impressive at the time? sure. Is the actual gameplay worth a fuck? nope. not in the slightest.

AC2 suffers from the design flaw of "Illusion of Choice" by introducing tons of equipment, between a sword that has 1 in all stats and a sword with 5 in all stats, which is a better sword? trick question, doesn't fucking matter because a Counter Hit is an instant kill. the stats are entirely pointless. The mission design structure was better than 1, but the core gameplay remained the same. Wait for an enemy to attack, counter attack. ez.

I could go into greater detail, but I don't want to get horribly off topic.

none of the AC games are good, never have been. I still find them fun tho.

so this post isn't completely off topic, Phil is 3 hours into the stream and has completed 1 side mission, he is now replaying said side mission.
 
Is there any game developer he actually likes? Sure doesn't seem like it. What about CDPR and their free dlc practises? NO, those assholes have dating missions in cyberpunk and its characters have pottymouths so fuck them dood.

Seriously get him (without paying, naturally) to name one single developer he actually "likes". and considers consumer friendly. Even the hallowed crapcom betrayed him with Street Fighter V. If he gives thanks and praise for Quantic Dream's interacktive sahftware.. :story:

You forgot "having no idea when enemies will go hostile" and "fall in the water and die". I really enjoyed AC2 at the time but haven't played it since, I've long since been burned out on the series.

He gave Beyond Two Souls a 9.5/10. The game that's entire message can be boiled down too "if you're sad just kill yourself."

I haven't played the game in like 15 years, so my memory on their design issues is a bit foggy, but I remember the general gameplay loop being the worst aspect. I'm sure there's more though.
