The "Sequelitis" series of game design analysis videos on YouTube, as well as the commentary provided by Arin Hanson during episodes of Game Grumps, have shaped gaming discourse and discussion for the past decade. Recently, Egoraptor has come out saying that he regrets making that content as people have conflated the hyperbole and the character he was putting on as part of his genuine opinions and mannerisms. Do you accept his apology?https://x.com/egoraptor/status/2024033939925635339
>>733382643I just have a hard time taking him seriously even if you take away the hyperbole because I've seen him play zelda and he's genuinely awful at the game
>>733382643>"I was being retarded as a joke" defense
Isn't this the guy that got filtered by dark souls.
>>733382693I agree. Him being bad at the games is not part of the bit and it's a large part of the argument that younger people use against these games, citing the videos as proof that the gameplay is unintuitive and clunky
>Zoomers are equating modern gaming with OoT because they're butthurt the focus m meme is calling out their shit taste.
>>733382643Why do so many of these guys become so boring and cowardly when they become old men?Nigga in 20 years I will still be putting on the same character and shitting all over games I hate. I'm almost 40 and I still push the same hater energy I did at 18. This anger keeps me alive and passionate.
>>733382643Fucker died to Spark Mandrill. When he had Shotgun Ice.
https://youtu.be/UFWI5Ff5NEIWhy would I take anything that retard says seriously
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JrY1iOgd0IcOP sucks cocks
>>733382643Tbh even though I don't watch Game Grumps I can understand where he's coming from. He's showing more self-awareness than other people who fight against the world and I think that's cool
>>733382643Am I supposed to find something he said wrong?
His Mega Man X video is pretty decent, and frankly was a big stand out at the timeBut that OoT video was fucking retarded and ruined discourse for over a decade
>>733382643he presented it as his opinion, not as a character.
>>733382739
>>733382643This has the same energy as people who thought AVGN was an asshole until they met him in person
>>733382643I'm not reading all that shit
>>733382643I never understood what was so wrong about the ott video, i watched back in the day and it didn't seem that controversial.
What is Jontron doing nowadays?
>>733382643I wonder if Arin ever played Megaman X franchise past X4, because in X5 you get the "Megaman megaman"-NPC constantly interrupting your gameplay with tutorials.
>>733384858LoZ fans are easy to trigger. it was an annoying video and it did appear to be his opinion
>>733384862Being a father
Hes like 45 and he's still pressed about people making fun of his opinion a decade agoWhere's his kids Go fuck your wife little bro
>>733382643actually insane to type that much about something. probably narcissism.
>>733382643>hid behind a cartoon character that shoutsSo all of Newgrounds?
>>733385046This is just illiterate cope. This conversation is inaccessible to you and it makes you angry
>>733382643tl:dr
>>733384862Fuck all
>>733382643Everyone always shit on this criticism of Ocarina of Time but it's one of the most popular criticisms of Wind Waker: that there's too many "LOOK OVER HERE RETARD" moments. It only got worse as the franchise went on post Ocarina so he was right to criticize where it started.
now we need an essay from james about how AVGN is the same form of comedy over criticism that people take seriously
>>733384225Yeah because saying a door opening animation that's .2 seconds long about as long as it was in lttp is really stupid and that's like supposed to make me oot is actually a 4/10 is stupid I mean theirs shit in oot valid to complain about like the bottle blue fire puzzle dungeon or half of the enemies really are just wait until their open to hit like wolfos but this?
>>733382643Who cares? Why is there always a lolcow thread on this board?
>>733384997All the terrible Nazis ended up as fathers, and all the le hecking good people ended up being weirdos and miserable. You love to see it.
This is all because of that "nigger" the raven said, right?
>>733385298You just posted like him. It's relevant
>>733385110i read books and write all the time, it's just, coping *that much* about one's past self is narcissism, and i know it because i do it too. i have a diary about me. and it's big. i don't share it with people because that would be ridiculous... i just put my regrets and self-analysis in here.why did arin respond to this? because his ego was bruised cuz people were calling his past self ADHD-ridden. here he comes saying that this was a character he put on, only to later admit that all characters that we put on in life are partial truths, they do contain some of the self (no duh), so he has to own that to some extent he believes what was in the video, only to finally say "ah actually i think the cinematic nature of some of this stuff is cute, it makes sense, it tracks for the game they were trying to make, i do not mind it truly." the backpedal is pathetic. own it.
>>733382643I don't know if I should find this guy funny in an ironic or really sad way. That's a huge wall of cope for someone that just isn't built to understand easy games.
>>733382643>says he is interested in game design and engaging intellectually with it>uses terms like "didn't age well"well, nothing of value was lost, good for him and everyone he stuck with being a loud clown
>>733385321Jontron was never going to fail because he's a nepobaby, his loaded dad would have arranged a marriage
>>733382643>EgoraptorNot video games>Sequelitis on youtubeNot video games>x.com/egoraptorNot video gamesWhere are the /v/ - video games?
>>733382643Seems he's lying a lot. For one he said those things many many times clearly when he wasn't in some type of character or doing a bit. The truth is he sucks at games and dies all the time even when he plays games like oot and he took out his anger on Zelda for no reason.
>>733385298Because gossip is really fun which you can deny whatever. If their was a eceleb board it would easily be one of the most popular but that can quickly turn into bullying so I doubt they would allow it
>>73338542315+ years of playing video games. 0 tutorials successfully completed and understood
His videos are literally just fanboyism when he likes a game and sarcastic hate when he dislikes one.I really don't understand the controversies surrounding this guy.
>>733385298Failed men love to act like women (gossip) see>>733385534He probably has his legs up like a fag
>>733385587His videos are just old good new badHonestly he's just a /v/ chud I'm sure if he made a video for Zelda 1 vs lttp. Lttp would suddenly have so many more flaws
>>733382643Why the fuck every single e-celeb that made popular videos between 2007 and 2012 now has to feel sorry for what they did? Like, every single one of them now has to say they "have grown up" or "feel wiser" when all they did was just having a laugh.Do we seriously have to be thankful Kitty0706 died all those years ago because if not he would now have to apologize as well for having retard and faggot in his videos?
>>733382643His Mega Man X video was good though.
>>733382739I much rather like "I said nigger because it was funny" defense.
>>733385660You're in this thread Anon, shut the fuck up
>>733383530Yeah Arin basically self reports as incompetent playing this game, invalidates the entire zelda sequelitis
>>733385759To be fair society genuinely was much crueler back then in a way pretty much nobody is now. Everyone regardless of political or social persuasion is more sensitive/less edgy. It's a trend of society/finally getting over the post 9/11/recession cynicism (replacing it with a different kind) and realizing "wow we were kind of fucked back then"
>>733385759He's like 45, it's sad to see him write essays apologizing to strangers like he's 17Where the fuck is his kids, did he write this next to his wife. How are you not embarrassed?
>>733382643If his character is better and more likable than the real him maybe he should stop trying to be himself?
>>733382643Ok but he never claimed to be an expert, he always just presented himself as a random gamer.
>>733382643he has nothing to apologize for.
>>733384862Jon got rich enough to never work again a decade ago. He only does shit when something strikes his fancy now.
>>733386143He was always rich, he's the trust fund kid of his dad/grandfather(?) who is connected with pre-Islamic Revolution oil wealth
He was 100% right about skyward sword.
>>733386239Seeing the Diaperfag make everyone look like a retard for not understanding how the game works always makes me laugh. Especially when he shrugs his shoulders and it tracks perfectly, anyone have that webm
>>733386239He was right about OOT too. It's like edging in video game form only there's no nut at the end
>>733382643This is because in the last year or two he's started trying to branch out from Grumps and doing stuff like sprite work for a Mega Man V GB remake in the 7 style as well as working on that new animation show and wants to try to salvage his reputation all the sudden, despite realizing you can't course correct over 20 years of retardation over night like that. He shit where he eats for many years and now he's gonna have to deal with that fact like a grown adult instead of thinking he can sway public opinion like some high schooler.
>>733382643AH YES, HERE IT IS GENTLE/v/MENTHE LEGENDARY "TROLL'S REMORSE"YOU ALL HEARD OF THAT, YOU ALL SAW IT ONCE IN A MINOR SCAE, BUT HERE IS THE REAL DEAL, THEIR TESTOSTERONE IS OVER AND REPLACED WITH FEMININE HORMONES!>>733383297You know why and they drink a lot to a point all of them are transitioning.Jesse cox is another faggot, he still shills blizzard and now regrets of being a "toxic male" who loved the old warcraft.>>733384960Alia's Case was part of the damn story since audio quality was garbage capcom didnt knew shit on how to add a simple .wav file to save space.They only learned that in X8, which is a damn good game and return to form.
https://youtu.be/SGnG77eFeBw?si=Rbh8WM8seBUAXu_PI still think about it sometimes. Why is arin such a fag
I mean thinking about it he kinda had a point, link to the past feels like an actually videogame while ocarina is like the start of movie games shit.
>>733382643He can just say ''I've changed my mind over time'' and move on, and also not be a fag.
>faggot posts something retarded on twitter>QUICK I NEED TO MAKE A THREAD ON 4CHAN ABOUT THIS!!!!
>>733386058He has to apologize to the pozzed crowd he makes vids for now for being white and male mostly.
>Stopped making sequelitis like 20 years ago>Is apologizingTo who, who watches sequelitis in current year?
>>733387592Alogger faggots who want to screech at him for past wrongthink probably but since he himself is now a faggot who cares really
Erin is a massive faggot who married some she-cunt who basically controls himself on top of looking like a ghoul, once cool guy of the internet is a sad shellJon became shit once he took Disney money to shill, and the normieslop he's produced the last 7 years is fucking garbage
>>733387592Erin desperately wants to be hip and cool with the modern youth even though most of them probably don't know who he is anymore It's sad
>>733385534Jackie 4Chan should make it anyways. /incel/ - Internet Celebrities
>>733385321Leafy isn't a dad.Mister Metokur isn't a dad. Alex Jones's ex-wife and son are Jewish.Nick Fuentes is an apologetic faggot. The QuarterPounder doesn't have kids. Most of them developed troll's remorse. Trump and his cabinet want to kill your hobby.Passportbroing is gradually becoming an unviable tactic.The alt-right lost.
I just watched this nigga beat Donkey Kong Country without learning you can roll to kill enemies...
>>733383297>I am as mentally and emotionally stunted at 40 as I was at 18Interesting attempt at an insult but alright.
But like that’s so valid tho.
I always fucking knew it.
How does this nigga remember what he dkd decades ago lol
>>733382643Video games, faggot, VIDEO GAMES!
>>733382643Why does everyone that found popularity during the 2010s being edgy suddenly wants to appear woke and cool and totally didn't mean those words back in the day now?
>>733386229I thought his family disowned him after he started doing youtube full time?
tldr
>>733382643Sooo... Was he expecting an applause for this or what
>>733383317>Fucker died to Spark Mandrill. When he had Shotgun Ice.How is that even possible
>>733388673Many people remember events in their life where they feel shame because they're doing something wrong. Most of my main memories from decades ago are this. I still feel shame for tracing for my high school final project.
>>733388242>Ralph and Nick Rekieta are so irrelevant that they fell of these lists entirely Lol
>>733382643i still wanna know what kinda weird dumb shit happened between him and da other game grump
>>733388520> Interesting attempt at an insult but alrightIt’s called being rock n roll you fucking wankerhttps://youtu.be/3aatEBIZHNU
>>733382643I actually prefer it to be this way as it exposes those who only thinks surface level.

>>733388520Men at age 18 are drafted to go to war and kill enemies of the nation.Men at age 40 are exempt from the draft because they're pathetic low test losers.Men at age 18 go to take Troy. Men at age 40 go back to find their wives getting plowed by suitors.That should tell you all there is to know about what kind of man it is better to be. Young, deadly, heroic and full of Faustian Spirit, ready to kill or be killed. For glory. For the emperor.
>>733390013He's the guy that got mogged hard by a fucking clam in majora's mask
>>733382643>The DSP defense of "it was just a character"Sad. Why does he feel the need to cope like this?
Well at least he is not sucking penises I hope
>>733382643egoraptor has always been an obnoxious cunt.
>>733390127>for the emperorIf that’s a 40k reference I genuinely hope you kill yourself, otherwise based.
>>733389619just clash between narcissists. watch the fight they had during that one nickelodeon guts episode where jon figured out the controls before arin did and didn't want to share lmao
>>733385945Tbf, Suzi isn’t mother material. She cheated on Arin with JonTron.
>>733389878based gallagherposter
>>733388764anon, please...
>>733382643What's the TL;DR? Z-Targeting good actually?
>>733390506>>733389619typical type A personality stuff, they were always better suited to doing their own thing than working together.
>>733388242The metokur one is fascinating to me because he did end up falling for troll’s remorse. He mocked Homberguy, who was also apart of the same forum, for having it. Years later Metokur is breaking down bawling his eyes out talking about how he wants to be like Charlie Kirk and is sorry for the stream he made on him.
>>733382643way too much of a pussy to be putting giant opinion piece videos out there
>>733389878Oasis fucking suck lmao>>733390127Gay.
>>733382643What happened to Arin? Seriously, what was the thing that changed him? Getting married? Losing Jon? Becoming "successful"? What killed his soul?The man has not seemed genuinely happy in many, many years. He doesn't even seem like the same person he was before, like, 2014.
>>733390826The funny part is that looking at it objectively Metokur is and was a better debater than Kirk. Kirk was very 2010s "SJWs owned compilation #624" Ben Shapiro in how he operated. Metokur actually debated people who knew what they were talking about, not going to campuses full of dumb kids or protests run by flamboyant idiots
>>733388242>Leafy isn't a dad.Can't confirm he vanished>Mister Metokur isn't a dad.He literaly is a dad lmao>Alex Jones's ex-wife and son are Jewish.Yea the fool was targeted >Nick Fuentes is an apologetic faggot.He's a fed so not a nazi, he's controlled opp>The QuarterPounder doesn't have kids.Don't know who that is>Most of them developed troll's remorse.I can't see how that applies to any of the mentioned above, except maybe QuarterPounder but then again I don't know who that is.>Trump and his cabinet want to kill your hobby.He literally saved it, he prevented payment processors to bring their faux puritan bulshit from overseas.>Passportbroing is gradually becoming an unviable tactic.All those retards deserve their misery, pathetic insecure morons all of them.>The alt-right lost.True, but not for the reason you think.The alt-right was a term invented by a fed to trap right-wingers by association, the whole brand has disapeared from everywhere today though.
>>733389878Oasis fucking rock kek
>>733391250yeah didn't he start wearing women's clothes and shit like that. teamed up with an unfunny kike when jon left too. it's all so weird
>>733391250Troll's "remorse" aka he drank a lot of s__bean milk and his genes are now of female
>>733390127>Men at age 18 are drafted to die like cattle in wars chosen by rich old men like the good goyim they areOMG BASED
>>733388242>>Passportbroing is gradually becoming an unviable tactic.QRD? Did the redpillers realize women from Philippines don’t actually love them? They have a strange dynamic where they’re redpilled when it comes to western women, but then suddenly all that redpill ideology is thrown out the window when it comes to to elsewhere.
>>733382643Crazy how OoT destroyed him and he never recovered from this.
>>733391250game grumps took off and he lost his nerve on being "edgy" in fear of losing the easy gig
>>733382643No, he probably only regrets making them because it highlights how fucking bad he is at games when contrasting to his gamegrumps footage.If they were still highly regarded today, he absolutely would not be trying to brush it away.
>>733384960Hell no. X6 would kick his ass harder than OoT/MM did.
>>733391612They call them LBHs (loser back home) but still put up with it for the green card because they live in fucking shacks
>>733391612Because like 99% of people, they are sheeple.They reached those redpill beliefs like a white woman becomes a new age bhuddist, by learning a dogma that validates their biases, with every argument pre-written by a grifter, most people never rationalize their own beliefs.
>>733382643>playing Sonic Adventure>Clears stage>starts talking about how he wants to suck dick while cutscene plays>cutscene shows where to go next>cutscene ends>Realizes game is back on>DUHHHH WHERE DO I GO NOW THE GAME DIDN'T TELL MEHe's a faggot more obsessed with dicks than he is paying attention to video games when playing them, he deserves all the scorn and insults he gets.
If he didn't act like a fag he wouldn't have a fanbase or fame, so you know 100% he would go back and do it all over again
>>733383297Most adults stop acting like teenagers because teenagers are retarded
>>733382643On a rank of zero to iDubbbz, how cucked is Arin these days?
>>733391612Being a passport bro is just trashy in general. It’s arguably lower than being an incel.
>>733390127OWNED that nigger.
>>733391932He's DSPmaxxed. Needs to either look things up ahead of time or have live handholding not to look like a complete retard playing a game and then tries to pass off all of his dumbest moments (that all happened in his 30s btw) as just playing a character or pretending to be retarded.
>>733391250How do people not know at this point? It's Suzi. It's always been Suzi. Everything down to the point where he stopped being an animator and focused on chasing money has been Suzi.
>>733382643lmfao
>>733382643Has Egoraptor trooned out yet?
>>733386358>of being a "toxic male" who loved the old warcraft.HOW THE FUCK was the old wow toxic. What the fuck is wrong with these cretins.
>>733386358>Jesse Cox>Toxic MaleThe guy is a caricature of a Redditor, the only thing toxic about him is his fat due to years of eating nothing but processed and hormone-boosted slop, which probably cause these delusions. The only offensive thing about that ginger fat fuck is his taste in Vidja, mainly MMO's, the guy is straight up liquid shit and the only reason he's know is because he was the third decent non-machinima WoW channel out there, and even then he siphoned some of his clout from a machinima channel (Wowcrendor). The guy is a lifelong hack and him still getting views is proof that we deserved the Great Flood.
>>733382643>Retards didn't understand it was a character and took it at face value>Arin being the bitch he is screeches about itMakes sense to me
>>733392198He’s proto-idubbbz. He stayed with his wife even after getting cheated on.
>>733392378lol go die for isreal then fag
>>733383297They surround themselves with Jews and/or move to LA to be around fags 24/7
>>733386358>>733393127Speaking of Jesse Cox, whatever happened to Dodger? I haven't heard about her in well over a decade.
>>733382643I think I couldn't care less about what he says after what he really showed himself to be on the internet as an artist and a person, when he was upset by the video that sr pelo made mocking the storytime videoshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TYzCbswdGew
>>733393357Christ, what a faggot. Oney really was the winner of Newgrounds.
>>733392198Eh like a 6. Maybe a 7. His content wasn't as edgy in the first place and he isn't nearly as much of a cuck as modern day content cop man
It's disheartening how Arin ended up. He could've had his own Adult Swim show by now.
>>733382643You gotta wait.
>>733393286Didn't she get married, had a child? I swear there was a Dodger or a cute girl thread here and Anons were circulating pictures of her with a visible pregnant belly. I also remember them posting that cute British chick from the Xbox fan channel and several others, but mainly Dodger and the Xbox Brit.
>Internet daddies are just your typical normalcattleTruly shocking
>>733382643He just regrets that everyone knows he's absolute dogshit at videogames so all his critiques are shallow at best and nonsensical at worst.
>>733382643I'm not reading all that shit are you fucking crazyGet a fucking life
>>733385759They hit a sort of midlife crisis. They realize their shit content is all they're good at, and it's not popular anymore. They're not good enough for retail and that is terrifying. Hence trying to look ''legit'' by apologizing and maybe land a better gig.
>>733393015This is their new modus operandi todemonize even the rpg books and all of the RTS trilogy.And from metzen himself with no sarcasm at all>We regret calling it warcraft>>733393127And crendor is now with Nixxiom the grifter, the guy who was kicked out of ESO community for being a ass who never gave a fuck about TES lore, which is sacred and he only cared for nord and skyrim memes like a dumb s'wit.
>>733382643I'm not reading all that bullshit. I already knew his opinions were trash, I don't need a manifesto on his thought process
>>733382643Everyone regrets things they said when they were younger. I regret things I said today.
>>733382643Welp, time to go watch them again, just to spite him.
>>733391273Kek the cancer must have gotten to his brain or something.
>>733394390People who bait about having cancer this long often have very mild easily treatable cancer that responds to treatment and can be kept in remission for a lifetime. He's either lying or has that.
>I was only pretending to be retardedNah I dont believe you
Dont know who that is and I aint reading all that but I will tell you exactly what that is.>oh shit I'm not relevant and talked about anymore so I will create some controversy to stir shit up and make people talk about me again
>>733382643Seems kind of pointless, if someone is dumb enough to take and keep it as their opinion than any opinion they could have formed isn't worth stating
>>733394825based insight stroke-sama
now it comes out that he was "pretending" to be retarded. im sure everyone that agree to those videos look like a complete actual retards now. way to alienate both sides, arin. holy shit.
>>733394956It was always an exaggerated persona. How fucking retarded are you to not understand that
>>733393939>>We regret calling it warcraftI hope the faggot threw his Warhammer collection if he's so triggered by the word war.
>>733382643Then delete em
>egoraptor calls out gameplay density 12 years ago>immediately takes back criticism after getting shit on twitter from teenagers>markmsx has been championing gameplay density his entire career, never backed downTEUCHADS WON
>>733382643His take on OoT was proven correct because the end result of the waiting game style of combat is the Souls roll spam waiting for the boss to finish the combo and it's your turn.
>>733382643I think he only regrets it because the reaction to the Ocarina video was so negative. People were absolutely fine with his take on Megaman because he didn't go full retard with it. He should have just accepted it was a dud and just powered on to the next one to try and pick it up again.I feel the same shit happened with his animations. He loved to do it when people praised everything that he did. Then he did Pokeawesome 2 which fell flat, and he barely touched animations again outside of the occasional Starbomb music video, and even those he only directs other people to animate for him.
>>733393939Speaking of Nixx, the fuck happened to him? At least his Machinima videos were decently entertaining, and now all he does is his variety hour where he talks about a boring topic or some random quircky thing he came up with.>Got kicked out of ESO communityLMAO, how do you even manage that, Christ you'd either need to be the biggest annoying cunt out there or in a bout of delusion he thought that his years spent RP-ing in WoW could be transferred over to the probably second most autistic Lore community out there which lead him to trying out his luck in a serious RP guild or whatever they have over there. Even Oxhorn wasn't that delusional and decided to go with a fandom with lax lore standards, Fallout, and even he gets ripped to shreds constantly.>he only cared for nord and skyrim memes like a dumb s'witYeah, I can see that, even his old RP WoW vids felt more like he was trying to play out his fantasies of being a wise, old druid from Norse mythology than interact with the setting.
>>733395062They are releasing starcraft tabletop this year and will be shit
And now he makes "I ATE EVERY PILE OF COW SHIT IN IDAHO SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO" tier derivative youtube clickfarming content, complete with his dumb basedface on the thumbnail.Wow. He's come so far. What a great introspective.
>>733385928The entire culture of internet critics making fun of media on YouTube was regrettable in hindsight.
>>733393939>crendorThat guy is legit slow in the head. No idea how he got popular during Cata years. But his channel is dead anyway so that's a blessing.
>>733382643>The "Sequelitis" series of game design analysis videos on YouTube, as well as the commentary provided by Arin Hanson during episodes of Game Grumps, have shaped gaming discourse and discussion for the past decadelmao yeah right
I’m glad being a contrarian is going out of style
>>733388734People don't want to be held by words they said 15 years ago when they don't really care about them and mellowed out.
>>733382643Nice of one of these people to actually admit they're exaggerating and putting on an act to be entertaining like 99% of them do.
>>733389619Jon punched Suzy
>>733396034>Jon beat a trannyBased i say
We must be better
>>733382643>Rewatch the video>Still agree with 95% of itArin should apologize for apologizing. It's clearly exaggerated for comedic effect and it's not his fault zoomers are fucking retarded
>>733382643I don't know anything about this guy, but the past 20 years of celebrities (and real life) has taught me that the act can only hide so much for so long. If a smart person and a good guy spends five years playing a dumbass asshole for laughs, you can still sense the intelligence and good nature underneath. If he legitimately comes across as a 90 IQ narcissist, that's because he is.
>>733385928This shit is just revisionism that tries to justify the radicalization that happened to people in the mid-2010s, if not everyone would still be fine with that type of old content.
He only feels bad because people can blame him now.Faggot.
>>733391292i thought metokur said he never had kids?
>egofagtor still hasn't killed himselfThanks for ruining my day, asshole
>>733397712Every day he gets closer to trooning out
>>733397657Jim is a fucking liar either way, if he was truthful he would've died a decade ago.
>>733382643I went looking for the post of the person he quoted, and based on how long it took to scroll to February 17, I can attest that they spend WAY to much time on Twitter.
>>733397882I honestly stopped caring years ago since he regurgitated the same shit "dunking" on the same lolcows like Ralph and uhh yea. I just want funnies, not lolcows.
He was correct about MMX and SC4. However his take on Zelda was so awful it killed the series.
>>733397657He's married but because he's termally I'll he's doesn't want to have a hypotetical child grow up without him and possibly get the same illness he got.
>>733397839>he doesnt remember the photo of him in drag>that photo is almost legally allowed to drink in america now
>>733382643I'm glad totalbiscuit died before he could reach tranny levels of annoying, can you imagine if he was still around nowadays? >that's so mean to say!
>>733382643Crazy how this faggot threw everything away for a fas whore. He has no friends, he has no family, he has no children, he has to pray that his shit let's play channel keeps going as he's pushing 40. The only thing he was good at he stopped in pursuit of quick cash to appease the stupid fas whore. What a waste of talent and a life. What a retard
>>733398746im still betting his chink blow up doll wife will abandon him once his canceraids fully takes over
>>733382693>>733382863Arin is a faggot, but trying to maintain a conversation, be funny (trying to be anyway), and playing vidya at the same time is hard and gameplay generally suffers. If Im having a seperate conversation while playing a game, my skill plummets unless its a game I know intimately already.That said he might just be really shit even when totally focused. But I wouldnt judge off just his showing on his channel
>>733393538when he adopted his safe edgy "i don't wanna hurt no bahdy" persona i thought it was in prep for some kinda show that was gonna take him mainstream.turns out it was just his bitch wife
>>733382643Troll's remorse is always lame but I can at least follow the logic when people apologise for making fun of trannies or something. It's weird to act this way over exaggerating flaws and pretending to be comically mad at a video game, are we gonna be getting the AVGN apology vid too before the year's out?
>>733399015totalbiscuit had the same problem as egoraptor - a secretly turbo leftist perpetual victim wife.him dying just saved him from her. if he had survived he would've divorced her eventually coz he was too opinionated and would've stepped on a landmine eventually. probably for the best atleast his kid can remember him as a lovable asshole instead of his reality which was just plain asshole who was good at technical things
>>733382643>words words words>twitterfag screencap>twitter linkI think people should get autobanned for shit like this tbqdesu
>>733382643Ill accept his apology in his 13 reasons why letter.
>>733384862Winning, nigga pops in for one or two videos a year and chills.
>>733382643>you weren't supposed to take my Zelda video seriously!!!so... were we not supposed to take the Mega Man one seriously either? was saying Mega Man X was an improvement over classic Mega Man a joke?
>>733385996He literally went on a game show for a chance to be a game tester because he thought his insights into Castlevania and Mega Man X were hot shit
>>733384960I assume he got the hatred for it from Megaman legends but I don't get why he didn't show Legends Roll Caskett for that sequence.
>>733400656He was so retarded he didn't even know it was a low level QA job lmao. And it was obvious the producers fucking hated him.
>>733383317no way that is true nigger
>>733400781>And it was obvious the producers fucking hated him.Based PS3 era Sony
>>733395705It's not contrarianism is called critical thinking.
>>733389619Jon slept with Suzi
>>733399015I'm just glad he died before he saw what happened to jim stirling.
>>733393538I legit think he could've ended up a household name. He was that popular and had that much momentum.
>>733393538He's getting his own Glitch youtube show! It's just Pibby with annoying Egoraptor voices but
>>733389619It's simple, arin wanted to push the brand and show volume and Jon didn't. It may have gotten hostile in some way, we don't know, but given theyre both massive spergs it wouldn't surprise me
>>733383297>I'm almost 40 and I act the same way I did at 18Damn... I hope this doesn't become me.
>>733401483Jim was an insufferable faggot back then, that's why nobody fucking liked him and he was fired from desctructoid people thought his asshole persona was an act for the jimquisition show but it turns out he was THAT unlikeable IRL. And>Imagine being so fat you get filtered by Kid Icarus
Never forget...
>>733401483Jim Sterling has always been an obese cringy freak who hates the nerdy environment of videogames, and if you're surprised that he trooned out, you might be retarded. The main thing that I know him for is leading the charge to get games censored, and that happened before TB was at his peak.

>>733400231>his kid
I liked the sequelitis videos, I wanted more. I just like design rants in general.he sucks ass at video games and he has the object permanence of a goldfish when it comes to the oot spikes, but honestly that doesnt ruin the other fair points he made.the castlevania and megaman ones were gold
>>733402729His incompetence actually playing games puts it all into question. How is he supposed to know what good game design is like if he is in the bottom 5th percentile of players?
>>733382643>have shaped gaming discourse and discussion for the past decadesure thing, troon
>>733385534We already have /vt/. Do they have bully campaigns there?
>>733382643>I was merely pretending to be retardedWhy can't you just say>Nah I change my mind
>>733402837does it though? its been forever since I watched it, but things like the story motivations just telling you to be a hero rather than feeling it, and feeling taken on a tour.his point on combat was half wrong, but its a symptom of the problem: you CAN stun enemies and get around the waiting, but it feels so clunky to do so that nobody even wants to dig into the equip menuid have to rewatch the whole thing to go on
>>733382643why is arin being mature?whatever, he still sucks at video games
I really don't care about your youtubers and this is me saying how much I care. I don't understand why their lives have any impact on anything besides some people being too cool for soap operas but wouldn't admit to it.
>I once said a nintendo game was bad PLEASE FORGIVE ME I WILL GLADLY ACCEPT THE THOUSAND LASHES OH MY GOD IM A HORRIBLE PERSONHow did this guy turn so gay
>>733382643Even as a child, I knew Deku Nut + Jump Attack was OP. How bad do you have to be at child's toys?
>>733382643People that have regrets are fucking subhuman.
>>733382643Lol no, his anger at clams in the water temple is real, not a bit. Damage control.
>>733382643What a fucking retard
>>733385928kill yourself you fucking loser
>>733403439thanks niche
Was he also "just joking" when he argued with jontron about it?
>>733389619Jon didn't want a brand and he wanted to sorta not do Grumps as much, Arin wanted him to commit full-time and obviously they had a fight about it. Suzy never really liked Jon either so she probably started the fight when tensions were high.
>>733391292>prevented payment processorsBut that's blatantly false you fucking faglord.
>>733402220loco bandito
>>733382643He should be apologizing for how unfunny that video was.
>>733393286She got married to Sam Strippin and moved to the UK and had a kid. They live on a farm now with a bunch of animals. Jesse and her have a podcast every friday and she talks about it. Otherwise shes been consistently streaming on twitch all these years and last year debuted as a vtuber. Shes doing good.
>>733382643>have shaped gaming discourse and discussion for the past decadeNah lmao
>>733382643I'm sure that profound rage about "unavoidable chin move"s in Sonic: Fate/Saber game is just extreme dedication to acting. Wow. Even when Dan recorded Arin with his phone with that pure look of rage in his eyes were acting too. They literally stopped the episode so they could record his great acting skills, man... If Arin was such a good actor at being fake-angry why didn't he go go into acting?oh right.
>>733403542What niche, you fucking ESL?
>>733403950lmfao
>>733403950niche much?
>>733389619Arin has burned bridges with every single fucking person he's worked with. The only people who have stuck around are money chasing yesmen like Dan. So whatever went down between him and Jon it was 100% Arins fault. Replacing Jon so suddenly and not even doing a farewell video for him means he left because of some sort of conflict, it was NOT on good terms.
>>733403950I mean, I got the joke.
>>733404060>>733404071>>733404157Fucking ESLs. I miss the old Internet when it was just fucking American college kids.
>>733404203lol
>>733404203What would the internet be? The top or bottom?
OOT is 28 btw
>>733404287since the internet is old and doing the fucking, a fat balding dude
How the fuck is Game Grumps still a thing? Who the hell kept watching this shit after Jon left?
>>733382643>Do you accept his apology?Fuck no I don't. I've seen him actually play and talk about the actual Zelda games. He wasn't being hyperbolic about ANY of those opinions. If anything, he was UNDERstating how much he hates them. He can fuck off and/or die in either order.
>>733382643Who the fuck are you, some community manager he hired to improve his reputation?Kill yourself, stupid cunt.I don't know who the FUCK EgoRaptor is, but I'm going to take every opportunity to insult this cocksucker from now on. How about that?
>>733382693Pretty much this. Even when I was still an egoraptorbfan I had watched enough gamegrumps to know he had no business talking about game design. Also hisnexpertise was basically just "the opening level of MMX is the best thing ever". And now I onow what a truely insufferable little faggot he is and im sure hell troon out by the end of the year.
>>733404457go look at the comments its exactly who you think
>>733384858IIRC, a common point against that video was him contradicting himself at times, and adding nitpicky fluff to points that otherwise were valid to make it seem like its worse than it actually is.
>>733382643surprised he didn't throw an apology for using the word "retarded" in there for good measure
>>733382643Egoraptor actually taking responsibility for a major fuckup he did? Is hell freezing over?
>>733382643
>>733382643Imagine being such a thin skinned faggot you live the life being paid to play video games, but still actively sabotage yourself posting garbage like this (probably the op to btw since Arin said he posts here) demonstrating that you still learned nothing when dealing with other people. >have shaped gaming discourse and discussion for the past decadefucking "ego"raptor is right you fucking faggot.
>>733404092Wasn't he the guy who also outed DingDong to his family?
>>733389878i saw oasis for the LIVE25 and i gotta say, best gig i ever been. thanks for reading my blog post.
>>733382643who?

>>733404457Kids
>>733404901>children No, actually.>troonsYes.

>>733405102hello sir
>>733404457idk but they can't be doing well when Arin keeps making alt channels like opening pokemon packs.
>>733393471The king of trash mountain is still a dude wearing a cum-stained burger kings crown, anon
>>733382643Genuinely pathetic seeing a grown adult man nearing 40 years of age writing an essay about his feelings getting hurt. Ocarina's cinematic presentation was a fair criticism, it directly led to slogfests like Skyward Sword and led Nintendo to do the polar opposite with BOTW. He should own up to his criticisms while saying "of course I exaggerated it for entertainment purposes, Ocarina is still fine for the most part" instead of crying like this.
>>733385759>Do we seriously have to be thankful Kitty0706 died all those years ago because if not he would now have to apologize as well for having retard and faggot in his videos?Yes. Real life can be complicated like that.We can regret his death and mourn the loss while also being thankful he didn't have to grow older in such a corrupted future.
Pic related was only done so fans would stop asking why Jon left Game Grumps. Both where tired of it but didn't want to say the real reason he left.
>>733405482Blaming OoT for SS is like blaming Zelda 1 for OoT
>>733382739This was my first and only thought after getting even partly through that tweet. After I finished reading it, this is exactly what it is and you're correct.
>>733405595It’s weird how much people cared about a letsplay duo in retrospect
The Jon and Arin thing remind me of the Metallica and Megadeth thing
>>733405690It was the fact that they both never gave a clear reason why Jon suddenly left. So you just knew it was something real bad.
>>733392517Is Suzi the Yoko Ono of gaming?
>>733405940Yes actually
>>733399602I can tell just by reading your comment that you haven't seen him try to play Majora's Mask.
>>733382643Game Grumps would be a better show if we actually saw/heard this Arin more often.
What is worse? Arin playing Zelda or Cory playing PvZ?
>>733392236You're just mad because they get pussy and aren't paying for yours.
>>733405595Jon's already said it, people just don't like the answer.He saw the writing on the wall, just look what Arin turned le grumps into.
>>733382693You can tell that him being shit at the games isn't a "bit". This whole "I was just PRETENDING to be a dumbass" is as ridiculous as it sounds.
>>733404457One of my friends still watches them and she's 40+ and freaks out whenever I say they're shit. I guess that's their target audience.Fuck Egoraptor. He's a shit nepobaby retard that needs to stay out of gaming.
>>733404510I think the worst part is looking back on it with some years time and realizing that the level design of MMX is actually absolutely nothing special. The game just forces you into scenarios where only one button works. It's basically a forced tutorial, but Arin loves it because he doesn't actually have to read anything.
>>733406768He isnt a nepobabyHe was so poor his primary means of transportation was a razor scooter
>>733382643>140 character limitI miss old twitter
>>733407228Nigga, those scooters were like $100~200 and his parents paid for flash.
>>733399602The problem isn't that he's struggling to play the game properly with his attention divided, it's that he blames the game for it and doesn't listen to anyone trying to help him correct his misconceptions or explain things he missed. Not even the other people in the room with him. And more than that, he doesn't even try to correct himself. He'll bash his head against how he thinks something works until he's so frustrated he gives up. And again, blames the game for not telling him the right way, or for having an unintuitive mechanic even though he button mashed through the relevant information.That doesn't make for fair criticism, and in the case of Sequelitis, which was supposed to highlight actual game design principles and where they go right and wrong, it proves that Arin isn't as well informed on the subject as he presented himself to be.To make a video like that, you'd be expected to know a game like the back of your hand. But it's just embarrassing when you prove you understand it less than someone who played the game casually 15 years ago, let alone an actual enthusiast.
>>733382643>character he was putting onLol this little weasel tactic has never worked as an out.
>do funny video>get famous and become a billionare cause you are whitenoooo HOW COULD THIS HAPPEN TO ME I AM A LE FUNNY GUY I AM LE IMPORTANT BUSSINESS MAN I WISH I NEVER DID THOSE VIDEOSSnap back to reality, egoraptor is a loser with 0 skills.
>>733407228His mom runs a "charity"Tells you everything you need to know.
>>733407395i enjoyed those funny bypasses that got like several pages of shit in tweets
Alr i dont care about eceleb shit normally BUThe shouldnt apologize for sonic adventure (mostly). That game is so far from perfect, it is such a buggy game, it deserved to be called out for being jank shit even though i still personally love it.What he SHOULD apologize for is being so fucking awful at the piss easy fishing minigame
>>733407818Play the Dreamcast version
>>733405595jon came in to fuck suzy in the ass like he does every day at 6 but that time it was arin in full drag and jon was just not gonna deal with that
>>733407818>just want to listen to BIG fishes at emerald coast>accidentally go into the comments while looking for other videos>nearly every comment is referencing them or talking about arineven as someone who hasn't played adventure until recently big's stages are extremely simple to beat, how do these retards get filtered by fishing?
>>733407818It's almost universally agreed (including by fans of the game) that the DX port is garbage. Sonic Adventure on Dreamcast was always better in just about every category.
>>733386298Thank you ESL fairy
>>733405690You had to be there
>>733407818Which version did you play? Every new release was a port of the previous version, so by the time it got to Steam it was a port of a port of a port of a port (Dreamcast > GameCube > PC > Xbox/PS3 > Steam). There's an entire website documenting these differences between the versions and what you can do to have the best experience possible with the gamehttps://dreamcastify.unreliable.network/
>>733408812It's a shame we don't have a single version based on the Dreamcast version. They are all based on the shit GameCube port which is very unfortunate.
I remember religiously refreshing his website when he was doing the awesome series of videos. Every day checking if a new one came up.One thing I always remember was the post of him getting married. He was talking about how beautiful his wife was and she was the most perfect person and he was such a schlub but she was sooooo beautiful.Then he posted pictures of them at some pagoda with kimonos and I thought she was really ugly. Then I lost all respect for him
>>733385928Society wasn't crueler than today lmao. People are just much more deceitful and vindictive today.
>>733406151arin is just constantly bugging cause he doesn't understand that certain criticism and certain people should not be taken seriously cause they're neurotic goblins. most of the internet community is fond of him i think, his old cartoons are great and early game grumps was pretty great too
>>733409090are the mods no good?
>>733392517So Egoraptor is just an earlier version of idubbz?
If he truly feels bad about it why doesn't he give back the money he made from it?
>>733382643>it's another "criticism is le toxic!!" episode
>>733403950Anon-kun... baka...
>>733404457>How the fuck is Game Grumps still a thing?They've branched out a little. The actual Let's Plays don't get much viewership anymore (sorta 100-200k)outside of special event episodes like Ghoul Grumps.They started doing these full playthrough videos a while back whereby they'll play like all of Dark Souls in one hit and upload a 10-12 hour video of it. They do a variety show called The 10 Minute Power Hour which is more hit than miss but your mileage may vary (it's on their second channel, The Grumps).I think in general the channel/company is always on the verge of irrelevancy. But if I had to guess, Arin probably invested well and has more than one revenue stream. IIRC it has been mentioned that GG is really just there to give two dozen people a job, and so long as it breaks even Arin doesn't care.
>>733392517Women ruin everything
>>733382643Never watched game grumpsNever recognize who's who when /v/ mentions themDoes he support the way videogame industry is self destructing? if so then he's okay if not he's wrong and most likely a sellout
>>733382643>>>/incel/ - Internet Celebrities
>>733382643He sounds like someone who doesn't like videogames but wanted to be popular.
>>733382643>Words words wordswhat a fucking faggot
>>733382643Didn't he make this same post like a year or two ago? Still don't care what this sellout has to say.
>>733385759It's important to recognize these peoples' mindsets in context. Most internet personalities during the late 2000s/early 2010s achieved recognition and "success" (not financial success, but some semblance of real-world popularity) at a very early age, usually early 20s. As such, they always had the idea that their internet careers were just the beginning of their "real" careers. It was only a matter of time until they stopped making videos about games/movies/comics and actually became a true game designer or filmmaker or artist. They didn't have any actual skill beyond general entertaining, but nobody realized that, yet, so there was the feeling that they could do and say anything. Why not? They were already e-celebrities. It was just a matter of time until the "e-" dropped from that term. Of course, as the years wore on, it became increasingly clear that such dreams would never become reality. The biggest players in the space, like James Rolfe and Doug Walker, couldn't make it in "the industry", so what chance did their hangers-on have? Egoraptor himself notoriously fucked himself out of an easy gig at Fox because of his own inability to function in a structured environment. Add to that the hard cultural shift of the mid-2010s, then the grim realization that they were either approaching or past age 30, and despair begins to set in. All the while, they're blowing their lives on Twitter, getting into arguments and burning every bridge they'd ever made along the way. Even more high-profile failures start to come out –Spoony's movie doesn't even get off the ground after fans fund it out of goodwill. Space Cop sucks, and not in an entertaining way. Channel Awesome implodes. Trump is elected president. The pandemic hits. Both events break their minds. They realize they've let the internet steal away their youth. They realize that 40 is coming, and that 50 isn't far away. It is, well and truly, over. All they have left are broken dreams and regret.
>>733382643No it's not a bit he sucks fucking balls at video games. I'm so happy Sega stopped sponsoring him with all the ironic Sonic videos and gave it to that vtuber who actually likes Sonic games showing their good sides.
>>733404851afaik no, but he was responsible for the incident since it was someone working under him.
>>733405802It's a good parallel
>>733413583All they really had to do is drop that massive inflated ego and let go of the fact that they weren't going to be the next Brad Pitt or Steven Spielberg and just appreciate the success they had. I think the guys that actually humbled themselves are doing the best and the ones that keep refusing to are the ones screaming into the twitter void.
>>733389619I heard, and this seems pretty realistic, that Jon moved to NY on basically no notice. He was talking about it and just jumped the gun without making any plans with Arin about it.So Dan, who was already brought on as the co-host of the newly introduced Steam Train was drafted in as the main co host of the channel.
>>733391250Typical Californian therapy shit.Makes a man gayer.Plus he has cultivated an audience of very sensitive people, so I think that has rubbed off on him.Frankly he is still doing much better in the head than most of his era.He isn't like ProtonJon of TheRunawayGuys who trooned out, nor did he have weird mental breaks like some of OneyPlays old cohosts
>>733395072What would that do? They'd just get reposted.If anything deleting them would just bring them back into the public consciousness
>>733389619For a serious answer, there's an old podcast interview Jon did with some fag where he admitted that GG was stifling his own career and that he didn't want to do it forever. He always had ambitions of moving onto actual acting work, in stark contrast to Arin who just wanted to ride the gravy train into the sunset. Jon knew that dropping him with no explanation wouldn't go over well, but Arin wanted the transition to Danny to be as smooth as possible so as not to harm the channel's performance, so they just went ahead and did it. Remember: Every issue with Game Grumps always leads back to Arin's endless greed for money and fame.
>>733404510>im sure hell troon out by the end of the yearWhy would he? He has an alien wife and MtF transgenderism is just an elaborate ploy out of the delusion that if you change gender you'll get a better chance with all those previously out of reach lesbians
>>733382643It’s ok. He made have made gaming worse but I discovered my love of rape in this cursed time
>>733382643I mean the therapy speak is gay. Very LA of him.But this is a pretty normal post.I don't see why I shouldn't believe him when he says he made his video as a comedic over exaggeration. I mean this was the whole AVGN era of gaming content on YouTube still.And yeah I think it's good that he's clarified that he didn't really mean what he said and was kinda just trying to be a contrarian.And I get that it would probably nag at him still
Sequelitis was his magnum opus. Game Grumps was low-effort garbage.Astounding he'd feel remorse for the former.
>>733382643>Make 8 videos>Set for lifeWhy?
People say that the Zelda Sequelitis was where Arin lost credibility, but I always thought there was something wrong with the Super Castlevania IV one, too. The "improved" game he suggests doesn't sound like Castlevania at all, it sounds like some Umihara Kawase game or something. The reason they made Super Castlevania IV like it was is obvious –it was supposed to be a straight upgrade of Castlevania 1 for the SNES and in that goal it clearly succeeded. Was that really so hard for Arin to understand?
>>733414664citation needed
>>733401483If only the rest of us were so lucky.I mean everyone should have seen that shit coming.Jim was already an annoying, autistic fuck. Dude pretended to be British in his accent for some reason, picked a really lame edgy song for his theme music, he already looked like a young, albino Jabba the Hut even before he became a tranny
>>733382643>I made as a little weirdoBro you're a little weirdo NOW
>>733414897He actually lost all credibility when he went back and started censoring his old cartoons.
>>733403439lmao the people who claim they have no regrets, watch him spew some cope when anyone asks him "well are you a billionarie whose traveled the world". "no im glad i spent it here posting on 4chan" kek
>>733413583Exception to the rules are; Markiplier, who through some kind of brutal image management has avoided most if not all the pitfalls, fallouts, and controversies, suffered by his fellows, and just recently released his own movie which did 10x at the box office. And Pewdiepie, who clearly cleverly invested early on and was able to mostly retire in his early 30s and now lives in Japan with his wife and son and makes monthly family vlogs (which are super wholesome) and dabbles in making stuff for fun (like his own LLM).Side note: the biggest fall-off seems to be ol' Jack Spedicy (jacksepticeye). He just can't get any head of steam anymore. He never seemed to have the creativity or discipline of his compatriots like Mark, nor the spontaneity or boundary pushing of Pewds. He just kinda lingered in their shadows and when they were moving on to new horizons he just ended up stuck. That plus the fact he's clearly dosed to the gills on SSRIs, beta-blockers, amphetamines, and who knows what else. Sad story.
>>733404457>Who the hell kept watching this shit after Jon left?Nigger, that wasn't even the peak of the channel.Jon was only there for 10 months 13 years ago.
>>733414664>Arin's endless greed for money and fame.I don't think this is his issue. I think he's just the worst people-pleaser. He'll do anything to make people like him, even at his own expense.
>>733414847You're gay and lame
egoraptor made low hanging fruit vidya flash parodies and doesn't even animate any more he needs to get more CTE in the next poverty youtube boxing event
>>733405690Well most of the people who cared were either children or autistic people. People who made very deep parasocial attachments to the channel.
is stamper still breaking into random houses for his cooking show
>>733414761>Why would he?He's already said he's bi-sexual, which is the first step on the road to trooning out.Shame, cause he had talked really positively about having kids like, 10 years ago. But like most millennials he or his wife just kept delaying and delaying and I daresay that ship has sailed, so the downward spiral is inevitable now.
>>733407818>What he SHOULD apologize for is being so fucking awful at the piss easy fishing minigameIt was really funny though.And yeah it would be pretty hard if you never read the controls, like Arin didn't
>>733382643Did Twitter get rid of the character limit? This is a fucking novel.
>>733415283He's been banned on youtube for years now. He randomly uploaded porn to his channel and go it banned.
Do you think he seethes over the fact that Zack has a successful show on Adult Swim?
Justice for John
>>733415357You mean, he uploaded a vid from his NG and then posted a dick pic.
>As someone who got famous and made money off of doing (thing), I now denounce (thing)
the videos are good, it's more he's a faggot for hating a majority of what made him popular in the first place
>>733415431i'm sure it eats at him on ocassion
>>733415431Zack with Smiling Friends and Dave with FNF have absolutely caused a ton of seething from their fellow newgrounders.
>>733384862I think he owns a small production company, so he mostly helps others film stuff rather than film his own stuff.
>>733415431Given his therapy speak, I reckon he'd sooner feel depressed about making the wrong life choices and not having become Zach.
>>733415601egoraptors shit was never funny to anyone outside the age of ten so that would've never happened
>>733415431Dunno if he does, but I do.
>>733390127We're talking about video games you fucking sperg
>>733382643Not reading all thatHe had 0 impact on anything in his entire life
>>733392517For me, it's Other-Suzy
>>733414438>He isn't like ProtonJon of TheRunawayGuys who trooned out,Seriously? Goddammit, there goes another one.
I think the Idubbbz saga has shown just how bullshit the "I grew up" troll's remorse stuff is. It's motivated by cynical pandering and/or pathetic cowardice.
>>733415890The problem is that his impact hit the YouTube essayists crowd. The same freaks that make 8 hour long videos critiquing some obscure game that they claim to hate but have 1000 hours of play in.
>>733393357One thing I've noticed about drama with newgrounds personalities is everyone will be quick to say "that was YEARS ago" when it's someone they like doing something fucking stupid but when it's someone they don't like they'll hang on to a tweet or 10 second clip of a livestream for a decade.
>>733415141I never watched Pewdiepie in my life til I checked out that Wit Studio video he did last month, and that was just super nice. I have no real desire to look through his old stuff, it's just good to see someone who's clearly evolved and in a great place.
>>733415965She is way hotter and not fatWonder if Suzy lets Arin fuck her ever
>>733415890Like it or not, Sequelitis is the granddaddy of the modern Internet essay AND the modern “cartoon reviewer persona”.
>>733416124Suzy lost weight years ago
>>733415431Max Gilardi apparently heavily does.
Arinand his retarded followers eating up everything he said has made my line of work more of a joke than anyone else i can think of except for DSP who is used as a reference point for Sony to determine if games are fun or notArin has never had, nor will he ever have any concept of good game design or good game testing. Quality assurance is my formal department and it touches damn near everything from sound to programming to gameplay to submission compliance to god knows what the fuck else. He may be a voice actor but he has zero fucking reason to be. Hes not an animator anymore either but instead pays others to, he paid Barry to play the games he critiques and did fuck all, sits on a couch and terribly plays video games and rakes in fuckloads of money This faggot doesnt even bother to show up to his own fucking booth at conventions but pays others to for him.If his goal was to lose as much respect as possible for any of his craft or fields of presence, he certaoinly is an expert at it. I do not have enough words to describe my anger toward him.
>>733415986I would respect them more if they stayed in character.
>>733384487it was "egoraptor's" opinion, his character
>>733416158Never watched them, i successfully ignored them when they were shilled hereDidn't he only make 2 of these
>>733416164Sure she did arin, your wife is still a hog
>>733382693A lot of people seem to think that casually playing a game while holding and active conversation reflects on his abilities. No shit, he would play better if he sat all alone in a dark room like you do.
>>733382643I remember watching a video on sequelitis (gay I know) and the zoomer cuck making it got so offended by the part where arin's avatar punches Roll, like I think he actually said "yikes" in response to a cartoon character hitting another cartoon character
>>733383317Seriously
>>733384862Fatherhood I imagineHe's made (and will continue to make) enough money to be set for life, and hell, probably his kid's life too.He won the game of life. Can't say the same about Destiny, or all his former Normal Boots friends that threw him under a bus.
>>733382643>I was only pretending to be retardedI don't think I've actually seen someone use this publicly
>>733416671poor projared
>>733416741alex jones literally tried this. his argument was "my whole character is just an act". he now owes 2.1 billion dollars
>>733382643He genuinely sucks at videogames though and is trying to play it off as a bit. He can go>I was trying to be funnyor>It's hard to make jokes and play at the same timebut I guarantee that someone more autistic than me can put together literal hours, maybe even days of footage of him clearly focusing on the game or not trying to be funny and just being too stupid, too ADD riddled and too lacking in basic problem solving skills to pick up on basic shit.Him not admitting to it only highlights why he has that problem in the first place.
>>733382643Nah he's a faggot
>>733416110Depends where you are in life. Most of Pewds audience aged with him, and are themselves in their 30s and have wives and/or kids.It's worth watching his stuff from when he officially moved to Japan, 2 or 3 years ago. Super comfy stuff. Marzia (wife) does his editing and she has a very comfy style.
>>733416207Well he should've stuck with WGJ4K instead of streaming Poppys Playtime.
>>733415965>>733416124Wait why are there two Suzi's?
>>733382739This is why most YouTubers fail, they're inauthentic. It's why Asmongold is so successful, he's a piece of shit.
>>733415965ayy lmao
>>733399602The problem with this horrible argument that people crumble over every time is that:1). Plenty of times the person in question is clearly trying to focus on the game, isn't making jokes and is actively trying to think about the game and ask what to do and is still failing to pick up on basic shit even if it's on the screen2). LPing is such a common thing that you have several people, even people that guest on some of these channels, that not only play 100x better and clearly don't have a learning disability, but are also doing so while making jokes and actively talking with others.Arin is just stupid. The end. He's successful regardless and can live a normal life so I don't know why he's so against acknowledging that his critical thinking skills are dogwater (which is rhetorical because obviously, since he lacks critical thinking skills, he can't realize that comments like OP just make him look like a faggot)
>>733382643The funny thing is that he's actually right in the video he's cucking out for. I've been having a blast playing old FFs and GBC Zeldas, there's an immediacy to them that keeps me hooked.
>>733416158>AND the modern “cartoon reviewer persona”.That would be Yahtzee.
>>733395086He regrets that, regardless of the video, people think he's genuinely retarded and that his opinions are worthless. The problem is that he is, in fact, retarded and that he can't escape reality now that people have enough footage to confirm it. He can't play it off but so desperately wants to that he decided to post that comment even though it's really just venting.
>>733405874>give me details about your personal life or I'll assume the worst!!!!why are fantards so entittled?
>>733414664> Arin's endless greed for money and fame.I don't think Arin can function in the real world. It's like >>733413583Most of these people that got internet famous could avoid looking like too much of a sperg making internet content, but they cannot actually break into anything that requires interacting with real people, having upper management etc.Arin still has a decent internet following but he will never be able to leave that. Even Jon couldn't break out of it although I have no idea whether he has real work now or is living off his wealthy parents while raising his own kid.
>>733415340Only if you buy premium. You can attach entire movies to your tweets too
>>733414876>Game Grumps was low-effort garbageGame Grumps during the JonTron era was the best. I remember trying to watch the post-jontron stuff shortly after it happened and it sucked.
>>733386358This seems less like troll's remorse and more like he's finally realized that going out of his way to make everyone realize he's a retard with shit taste wasn't a good idea.
>>733418665The fact that Jon was only on the show for 11 months is insane in retrospect.
>>733418665It was always bottom of the barrel slop for parasocial normalfags.Sequelitis and even JonTron reviews were infinitely better.
>>733418906>realizebeing the key word. He's hoping he can change that to think but it's far too clear now to everyone that it's not a bit or a 'character'
The issue with the whole "it's just a character, I was pretending to be retarded" is that you can't hide behind it when you're also trying to be a intellectual in a discussion. His issues, even if behind 8 proxies, became hilariously amplified when he played the game and his arguments all stem from being bad at the game. He can be bad at the game, he can complain that it's the game's fault that he's bad at games, but he mixed the peepee with the poopoo when he tries to be an intellectual. Like even this post of him trying to sound like a wizen introspective sage, he has already mixed the peepee with the poopoo and all he is doing is churning it together more and more. He should shut the fuck up about it, we don't need a retrospective on why mixing the peepee with the poopoo was bad, we don't need commentary how he didn't think mixing the peepee with the poopoo would be bad or that if he could do it all over again he would probably only mix a little peepee in the poopoo or just peepee in the poopoo or poopoo in the peepee with class, or maybe put peepee in his ass and not poopoo, it's all just retarded and he should forget it.
>>733392909He crossdressed for a Halloween party and still looked just as (not) convincing as those eunuchs who took estrogen for years.
>>733419519but now your acting retarded by talking like a baby in the middle of your serious post?
>>733382643Ocarina is dogshit thoughbeit
>eceleb cock sucking thread>mmmm eceleb sucky suckyKill yourselves
>>733420284>goes on to praise gaben in another threadits all so tiresome
>>733420518>hurrr gabenI don't give two shits about gabe. Kill yourself you e-celeb obsessed loser.
>>733420704>hes pro tim sweenygrim, absolutely grim
>>733419012Those 11 months were absolutely perfect because Jon actually plays video games. The moment Danny got involved it just devolved into two retards screaming
>>733403048>does it though?Yes. 10,000%. Imagine your favorite game being gradually turned into Fortnite because the devs kept listening to this one popular guy who kept trying to play the game and complained that it wasn't Fortnite cause he sucks at any game that isn't Fortnite.>things like the story motivations just telling you to be a hero rather than feeling it, and feeling taken on a tour.See, this is a perfect example. This could ALMOST be a point in and of itself, except Arin shits on it because when you watch him play, the game will just explicitly tell him to put the pot on the switch, he'll skip past it, then spend 40 minutes wandering around complaining that the game didn't tell him what to do and how much he hates it for not telling you what to do.>but it feels so clunky to do so that nobody even wants to dig into the equip menuBut that's just a lie and retarded. You have a ton of cool shit in your bags. I love pulling them out and using them. Is the equipment menu annoying? Maybe. But the item usage way makes up for that, and figuring out faster ways to kill tough enemies more than makes up for the "clunky" inventory.I got halfway through this and realized you were trolling me, but you still get me to respond. 8/10.
>>733382643>e-celeb man thinks everything is about him>thread slurps and sucks his cock>wow so trueThe reality is nobody gives a fuck about your virtual boyfriend you fucking losers.
>>733420908>timWho? Again you're an e-celeb obsessed loser. Kill yourself.
>>733422127>I FUCKING LOVE WATCHING MEN PLAY GAMES>FUUUUUCK YEEEEES GIVE THEM ALL MY MONEY FUCK GAMES ONLY WATCH YEEEEEESKill yourself.
>>733422609>on /v/, doesnt know who tim is in relation to gabedamn i didnt think id catch a pol tourist out so easily, grim. okay later
>clips of him being shit at games and being a hypocrite start trending on social media>suddenly apologizeslmao
>>733385029Does he or Suzie (I believe her name was) have fertility issues? I don’t think it’s right to joke or make fun of that kind of thing but is there a reason they haven’t had a kid yet? They’ve been together for like 20 years
>>733401026>Jon fucked a trannyBased i say
>>733382643His retarded opinions did way more damage to the Castlevania IV discourse that they ever did to OoT. OoT was and still is a masterpiece, people knew his opinions on it were stupid, but very few people gave a shit about Castlevania IV to begin with so his opinions on that did end up becoming the norm.
>>733405624No, SS definitely follows the soul and spirit of OoT and is a natural evolution. Your analogy would work better if you said "blaming OoT for BotW" instead.
>>733423047He is 100% correct about the special weapons being completely outclassed by the whip in that game though. They either shoud've been reworked or just cut.
>>733405690Genuinely I think nobody would have cared if it wasn't how they broke it off. Egoraptor/Game Grumps handling of JonTron leaving will unironically be taught in future media management classes on how NOT to run your business professionally. If it wasn't for that, legitimately I think nobody would remember either one of them.
>>733384735People like that exist?James has done and still does plenty of out-of-character videos on his channel where he's just normal and sincere, so I find that hard to believe.
>>733383297Testosterone drops as you age, and you become established with more lose, as opposed to young with things to prove. Faggots will tell you it's maturing, but it's pure cope. You're literally just becoming more woman like, afraid of loss, and the opinion of others, due to your decline as a man that comes with age.
>>733382643Haha what a little bitch
>>733407489After having studied the "How not to play" series for a bit, especially the Zelda ones, I've come to learn that all of Arin's problems and skill issues come from a core problem: He REALLY hates being told what to do. You can literally map every single one of his emotions to just this one sentence, and his true feelings on anything come out.Game tells him to do things in a certain way?>"UGH THIS IS SO STUPID!?"Game tells him about the story?>"SHUT UP I DON'T WANNA HEAR IT!"Game tells him to do something in a specific way?>"FUCK WHY DIDN'T IT TELL ME! (Game is actually telling him to do something reinforced through mechanics when he wanted to do his own thing.)Game doesn't tell him what to do and lets literally anything work no matter how retarded it is?>"YES! This is the PERFECT game why aren't all games like this?!?"Bro has a minor case of O.D.D. with his autism.
>>733423125Doesn't make the game any less fun or inferior to the other ones.Only modern day tryhards think otherwise, back then not a single Castlevania fan was like "oh man, this is shit, I wish the mobility and whip were as stiff as it was back on the NES!"
>>733417029Suzi has a twin sister
>>733390127>For glory. For the emperor.You'll never be japanese bro
Oney is almost as stupid as Arin now
Remember when his hog wife tried scamming people with "handmade*" jewelry *bought on wish for pennies
>>733386298>and doing stuff like sprite work for a Mega Man V GB remake in the 7 styleIf this is what I think it is, project ain't getting nowhere, lol.Guy's been posting gameplay of the same two levels for the past 2 years or so and then got sick. I'll be surprised if he gets to release a 4 level demo at some point, then he can join the other dozen unfinished demo-only Mega Man fan games.
irregular reminder arin is a tranny repressorhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6cKxKhmMWmkhttps://youtu.be/Sjng0TSgaSI?t=7m45s(hard to watch)
>>733382643>The I WUZ YUNG AND INSECURENo you weren't, you had a genuine opinion and let strangers on the internet shape your mind. That's far more insecure than having a bad take about a popular video game.God I hate this "I GREW UP" shit, you didn't grow up, you got pushback and it wasn't important enough to you for you to keep your stances. So you folded. This is why games like Ocarina are considered 10/10 games, they actually aren't 10/10 games and anyone who has had to do the skulltula hunt can tell you that they aren't. You just get shouted down if you say they aren't perfect.
>>733423880Everyone knows this
>>733382643I read that and I'm amazed he apparently still does GameGrumps??
