"Zero Punctuation" and "Dev Diary" by Ben "Yahtzee" Croshaw - The only thing worth watching on The Escapist

[The tired cat]

He moved to both Australia and America for a woman. The latter lasted and turned into marriage and children, even if he seems unsuited to the country (or perfectly suited to California).

Honestly, Yahtzee strikes me as the so called "perfect journalist" in sense he'll spout what one wishes to hear, when hes part of the right clique. Like say for example railing on the Bush admin because everyone hated that Texan git, rambling about the Sonic or MGS franchises when that "made you one of the cool kids" or even Zelda/Mario games as the easy whipping boi. Now, when 2016 happened and when he moved to Cali, the guy knows what shit he needs to say, cause hating the Orange man was the flavor of the day, same now in 2025.

It has to be moving to San Francisco that made him like this right? If you go listen to his old podcasts from back when he was in Australia he was never this bad. It also could just be terminal TDS setting in from orange man being reelected. Feel free to fuck off back to your police state we don't want or need you here in America.

There's like 95% correlation to being a popular somewhat edgy journo 20 years ago and becoming tranny lover in current day, and that 4% is only due to those people who disappeared off the web.

I'm really confused on why he moved to America if he hates it so much.

Because the way people voted turned it into a shit hole. Same reason why leftists moving from Cali to Texas. Literal rodent tier behaviour.

Didn't the same thing happen with TotalBiscuit?

TotalBiscuit has been pretty based for the last five years. Doesn't make much content, and even though he may have voted Democrat multiple times, he didn't talk much about it. Hasn't complained about Trump on Twitter in years.

TotalBiscuit has been dead since 2018, you might be thinking of Tobuscus?

If I have to explain the joke, it isn't funny.

This thumbnail (minus the red-white-blue caption) for an upcoming AiN appeared on my feed and it immediately reminded me of that already notorious MrBeast/KSI(?)/Paul(?) one. Almost nobody watches that shit, and it's full of so much stiff, awkward laughter and non-humor. Makes me wonder when/if they're going to finally axe it.

(?)I'm not sure if those are the correct names. All nog influencers look the same and I can't tell the Paul faggots apart.

This is part of Nick's strategy, he said so when he was fired. Basically get yahtzee to do content with the other content creators no one watches in the hopes that some of yahtzee's audience starts watching their other shows. Nick said this worked but it obviously doesn't otherwise he wouldn't be fired.

Also Yahtzee should avoid the camera, he literally looks like the serial killer from Last Action Hero. Jesus christ.

Could be worse.

Dude never looked well on camera, even in his younger days.

Reminds me I accidentally pressed one of their short on how to do a good DM, and it was literally "railroad the players so no matter what they do it causes friction with NPCs", which is a fucking terrible advice that shows the DM doesn't want to play with players but just force his gay story.

Jesus. mid-life crisis much?

Young 30s I think, so early-life crisis. Frost said when he left even within the company he's considered to be a fucking idiot.

HEY! He stole my somalin pirate joke!

So he thinks he has been coy about his politics? Okay, I've known he was dumb since he was a leftoid for years. But i didn't think he was just flat out dumb period.

Okay, seriously are you guys forgetting how in 2016 hed almost constantly shove the "Da oraange maaan" shit in his videos? Heck, he wasnt even above taking a crap on the Bush administration.

Yeah he's always been quite obviously political since before some of his viewers were born. To be fair he's couched it more in 'humor' before rather than outright ranting so its definitely gotten 'worse'. But I don't know what he and the fluffers in his comment section are smoking if they think its been hidden to any degree.

Its kinda funny how "mask off" he went. No hiding behind irony or humor, just vile hatred for the "other" side. I wonder if a friend of his got deported.

Movieboblite. Not sure he even really cares about games anymore. If he had his way he'd just start another old tired angry sad man rants about politics podcast.

Ah yes, game where you barely need to do much stuff. Yap, def seems like his material.

Oh yeah. He is going through a crisis alright. Starting to recognize his mortality. Only just a decade to early.

So, how long before he decides to buy a camaro, leaves his kid'n'wife to travel America and "find himself", thus ending up banging some 28 year old and marries her?
