Alex Navarro is pretty obnoxious with basically zero redeeming qualities, even from the perspective of an SJW (useful-idiot mediocre white-male ally).
i've always felt that alex doesn't really add anything to the table apart from like. being good at rock band drums. his humor is entirely based off of trying to amplify the effect of someone else's bit with his grating voice. also he looks like a junkie
 
I only know about Campster because he used to be part of a Let's Play group called Spoiler Warning that fell apart back around 2016 (can't remember why for the life of me though, something to do with a Life is Strange playthrough). I never really liked any of his videos whenever I took a look at his channel.
It was over comment moderation involving a moment of Life is Strange that had to do with domestic abuse:

 
I mean, say what you will about sites like Kotaku, but at least none of them published someone's forced-feminisation fanfiction under the pretense that it made a great point about how "women in gaming" are treated.

Oh shit, I now know who that is! It's the "porn-game expert" quoted in an article about that Mass Effect porn game that got 2 mil on Kickstarter.

“Compared to most adult games available on Steam and elsewhere, this feels ambitious in terms of both presentation and gameplay,” Jennifer Unkle, a critic who specializes in this segment of the industry, told GameDaily.biz.

It is of course a troon, so a deep interest in porn and sissyfication should come as no surprise.

Holy fucking cringe. I bet he'd be looking to write-off or claim all those hours with his wife's kids as unpaid child care if he could too. Klepek continues to amaze me, I have no idea how we're the same species. These tweets will be used to start threads on /v/ for the next 5 years, and you'll get 50+ (You)s every time. Actually, since I saved these tweets from you, Windows reminded me that I saved these gems that compliment yours because they both mention his mortgage:

Abloo bloo bloo let me play the worlds smallest violin for this poor soldier who took a job reviewing games in games media and now has to play them - UNPAID!!

What a complete fucking faggot, I can't believe that he's made it this far in life having such a weak spine. Movie critics don't get paid to watch movies, they watch them because they're passionate and they get paid for their REVIEW. Same goes for music critics, or really critics of any nature. If you're not passionate about this industry you shouldn't work in it you dense fucking mongrel, if you came into this position with the expectation that you would get paid for every hour you spend playing Overwatch you're even stupider than your icon makes you look.

This is seriously one of the worst takes I've ever seen and it really takes a modern day games "journalist" to complain about it. No other industry, no other medium, is this incredibly pathetic.

Plus if he's not getting salaried pay in his position and is instead working hourly still, his spine is even weaker than I could have ever imagined.

Klepek's family is super-rich, I'm sure he's planned on how to finance his house if he gets sacked from Waypoint.

Imagine being this much of a completely entitled piece of fucking garbage. It's disgusting he's paid at all for anything, but to whine about not being paid to play videogames? He should jump headfirst into a trash compactor.

In his defense (ugh) a video game is typically 15-60 hours long, compared to a movie (2 hours), a CD (70 minutes) or a meal (1 hour). There is a lot to deal with because of a Video Game's size and how a critic needs to consume them (really fast) vs how a typical player would (maybe a few hours a day/week spread out over time).

To go back to shitting on him though, he's a complete moron. He claims to have a "set of skills" (like he's Liam Neeson in Taken) being a video game critic AND having worked for Giantbomb but he's never apparently had the idea to record and monetize his gameplay to any degree (unlike every Youtube reviewer, Twitch streamer, and Giantbomb employee). Having early access to a game (even an embargoed one) still means you can prepare all kinds of video content and then just simply release it post embargo.

He can pre-make a "Tips and Tricks" video, he can premake a "Quicklook", he can premake a full "Let's play", or he can premake a full review. The fact that he doesn't and then complains about unpaid overtime is absurd. He really needs to evolve with the times.

He could do all of these things, yes, but when would he have time to cower from the sight of clothed breasts?

Those women were held at gunpoint to show up in Yakuza by the Sega Triad. Topkek knew she was being victimized and couldn't stand to contribute the degredation of women. He's a national hero and deserves a pulitzer prize for his groundbreaking journalism.

Actually, it's deeper than that. The yakuza women were of course held at gunpoint. But the part you may not know is that Klepek is being held at gunpoint as well. I know this because I am the person who holds him at gunpoint and forces him to do and say idiotic things.

I do this because of the guy who is holding ME at gunpoint. He finds this whole mess hilarious, or at least the guy holding him at gunpoint does.

This documentary video shows how it works.

I'd embed it if I wasn't suffering from crippling mental retardation.
 

More forced outrage from Waypoint.
It's pointless complaining. I don't think having every single Nazi soldier made repulsive and unphotogenic would have made things better. Not to mention people always had the attraction to bad guys as cool, both real and fictional, and they gonna do even if you repeatedly keep hammering them the facts.

And it's straight up Soviet apologia to complain how NATO has "whitewashed" Germans while not bringing up how Soviet Union has performed identical acts in East Germany. The East Germans even had preserved the uniforms that borrowed heavily from Wehrmacht designs whereas West Germans distanced from it.
 
As someone who enjoys learning about military history. There is an implicit understanding that the average enlisted soldiers who fought are to be considered apolitical professionals. Soldiering is a career for many, and those who were drafted literally had no choice. This is also true for contemporary professional militaries like the US has, where you'll easy find many who personally disagree with the interventions in the middle east.

Basically, VICE/Waypoint is ignorantly pushing against the well established methodology which military historians use to discuss these things. Because, muh demand for propaganda in video games.

It's also not like by the time the Nazi war machine spun up you could just simply "opt out" of the war as an able bodied German.

"Sorry, I just don't agree with what we're doing so I'm going home".
