Most likely his big mouth and outspoken progressive and SJW politics have pretty much alienated him from anyone in the movie/game reviewing community beyond folks who agree with his politics. The average joe who just wants to see a review of a movie or a game doesn't want some fat asshole preaching their ill-informed political opinions at them; this is the same reason that liberal films like the new Ghostbusters and The Purge have been flopping in theaters as of late.I'm pretty sure he's an outsider. He lives on the wrong coast and I never really see him in group photos that aren't obviously staged. He doesn't have a hatedom the same way Dobson does, though, and he actually makes content, so there's two things he's managed to be more functional than the blue bear at.
As far as his overall reputation, pretty much the only people who reference him positively in the scene are b-list Escapist refugees like Extra Credits and Errant Signal. I've never seen him have a back-and-forth with any of the Literally Whos (aside from those hilarious photos he was able to get standing next to Anita-senpai), he's not on any of the popular sites after Faraci threw him a bone at Badass Digest. Most games media sites don't want or need his content, and what passes for the YouTube film criticism community openly mocks him.
