Let's Players originating from Something Awful - ft. VoidBurger, General Ironicus, Bob Kamoc

It's a valid thing to talk about when a move only makes sense from a branding/financial standpoint specifically because SJWs run a smear campaign to terrorize people away from associating with anyone who doesn't toe their pc line.
 
Say Proteus, what was that about slowbeef being one of the "reasonable" ones?

I mean, how fucking pathetically obsessed do you have to be to preemptively complain about people complaining? Slowbeef has a pretty fucking unhealthy issue with people using the word SJW whether valid or not.
Slowbeef seems to fancy himself a business expert and is working towards a business degree and has talked about starting a business with his wife making apps.

A lot of his most recent Retsupurae content is him literally autistically screeching over (usually failed) Kickstarter projects:
He's also stroked his ego-dick whilst showing off how he understands basic marketing terms like "loss leader" and simple statistics on past podcasts.
When he criticizes other Youtubers he likes to do it from a position of faux authority (despite the fact that even people like DSP are more successful than he is in terms of Youtube).
 
I've been periodically checking VB's twitter, we're not missing much. If something of substance comes up, I'll post it. The only thing that is somewhat relevant is she said she'll probably take off private mode soon.

As far as Slowbeef, eh, he has cow tendencies, but I think he's overshadowed by most other people in this thread. I don't follow him on twitter though, so maybe I'm missing something.

Lol, what a non-effort fantasy, that's like a lets player's wet dream. Why not invent an app that lets him time travel back to 1999 so he can make millions in the dot-com bubble while he's at it.

slowbeef was reasonable. WAS. I don't know how he is now, I haven't talked to him in years. Although I do agree with the general sentiment of that tweet that it makes sense from a branding standpoint to drop Jon. Dunno why he brought up SJWs though.

Also, I'm pretty sure that Ironicus tweet was a joke, not some sort of child-indoctrination of communism.
 
He's been tweeting support for far-left political organizations for a while now, I don't think he's joking.

He was out on the streets of Chicago destroying city buses, burning American flags and calling for the punishment of Trump voters back in November. He's as militant milquetoast left as an upper-middle class white man can get.

I meant the part where he said it was the first thing he was going to teach his godchild to say.

I've made similar jokes on Twitter about my daughter, albeit with different topics

I know that he wasn't being serious about that, my post was regarding the general support for communism/socialism that his tweet implies.
 
Do we know what happened to the people who wrote Boatmurdered? It's my only real exposure to Something Awful Let's Playing, and it was pretty entertaining, but it is also over 10 years old.
 
This is fairly minor, but amused me enough that I ought to share it.

So Voidsperger has had a few spats with Youtube users Twin Perfect (a trio of Silent Hill canon Nazis) over the latter's gall to make a series of videos critically analyzing the Silent Hill series before she could capitalize on it first. So she, along with at least one other chucklefuck, started their own analysis series called The Grate Debate. I suppose the "grate" is meant to be reminiscent of Silent Hill's tendency to occasionally feature grating, I don't fucking know. They thought they were being clever, I guess. At any rate, this series closely mirrored the exact layout of Twin Perfect's series and seemed like it existed only to be a bunch of pointless shit-flinging videos. Over half a decade later, Twin Perfect's Real Silent Hill Experience is completed, with Void having done virtually nothing on The Grate Debate, beyond the Kojima playable teaser for Silent Hills. Gotta make videos on the fresh stuff first to maximize those views, right? ;)

Anyway, the meat of this story regards my one encounter with her. It came after she posted a typically "high-caliber" video shitting over Twin Perfect, whom seemingly misquoted the Silent Hill movie's director and producer (?) over the topic of misogyny. I guess Void isn't willing to "listen and believe" a claim of misogyny if it comes from outside her bubble.

This was the video in question:


And I felt compelled to respond:

Blah, blah, blah, etc. That was all well and good, until I left a subtle hint that I was keen to hear more on the topic. Then we go from bitch mode to plug mode.

Suffice to say, I didn't get far there. They are beyond awful.

So there you have it. Pretty small-time, as I said, but amusing to an extent. Further display of utter ineptitude when it comes to building her brand. People tend not to want to support shit talkers.

Do they think that attitude is how real businesspeople make money on their craft? If the grownups who actually went to work every day operated like this, we'd see DC publicly bitching on the internet about how they wanted to do a cinematic universe first and Marvel is a bunch of meanies for stealing their thunder, then they'd promise to have a kickass Batman movie and a kickass Superman movie coming out "probably next summer you guys" but we'd never see any of it and they'd remain silent whenever asked about their progress.

VoidSperger apparently didn't even think you could make money from what she does a few years ago before suddenly changing her mind. It's safe to say these chumps don't know anything about being real businesspeople.

One of the most immature things I've ever seen is this attitude that someone else apparently wronged you and owes you for no better reason than that they thought of a cool idea or figured out how to make something work before you did. It's like playing chess with my 7 year old cousin and watching them get mad and throw tantrums because I don't sabotage my own strategy and let them win.
 
Stumbled upon this thread and I had to make an account. Things make a lot more sense now since I've been wondering why Geop posted his new lp at that new site when it looks and seems like a big mess of a site.
I've been a registered member of SA since around 2010 but I don't post much and I've mostly kept to Tipping 40's and after that Kuvo's lp's. It's pretty crazy to look back and see how barely 7 years ago T40's based their entire FFX lp around Tidus constantly being called a faggot by his dad. The forum smiley might even still be there.
Seeing as I basically only stuck to their lp's and later on, some of Geop's lp's that featured Kuvo I don't really have anything of substance to add to the thread. I do want to mention that I really appreciate Kuvo for avoiding getting involved in politics and how he continues to treat lp's as a hobby.
 
Why would you ever bother arguing in youtube comments?

Oh, wait.

:autism:
It was less an argument and more me asking for clarification and then goading her into the response I was expecting from her when I realized this shit against Twin Perfect was personal for her. To be honest, I've always wondered why she tussles with the SH wiki crowd and Twin Perfect. Both pretty much act to confirm her bullshit theories on the series. She ain't too bright, of course.....

Do they think that attitude is how real businesspeople make money on their craft?

And, of course, we're talking of Let's Play. SA-style, no less. Where their rules and standards for LP go ignored by anyone outside of their forums because no one gives a shit about them hating Youtube and Pokemon.
