Adulthood is when you go back to rewatch let's play videos or game reviews and realising how unfunny they are.
This happened to me with Darknessthecurse. A lot of his jokes were just him yelling.
>>744701838I hated let's plays when they started becoming a fad and I hate them still. If you're gonna upload a video of gameplay, there should only be game audio in the video. Fuck you.
I still watch let's plays every single day and I'm almost 30
>watching let's plays>Watching game reviews from YouTubersLol.
2000s style low res 240p reviews are based
>>744701838Holy failed normalfag
>>744701925>looked him up>literally a geek with a fedora reviewing Sonic trashlmao you had shit taste
>>744701838adulthood is having enough disposable income that you can buy games for yourself instead of watching other people play them
>>744701838sorry your life sucks :(
>overhearing my nephew listening to some guy playing fortnite or robloxI'm sure the lets plays I used to listen to were annoying in hindsight, but I was a teenager at the time and ignored a lot of popular obnoxious channels.A literal child will think any adult playing a game they like is cool.
Picrel was funnier than nearly every other 2000s youtube game reviewer.
Go ahead and make fun of me, but when I learned that AVGN was actually a massive hack, a piece of my childhood died.
>>744701838what fucking age are you. As a 32 yr old I have never in my life been interested in watching someone play a video game
>>744702763eh chokklit cheip COOGie.........
>>744701838No, there are sooner signs than that. You are just autistic.
>>744703004good morning sir
>>744702783It was very obvious AVGN only played like maybe 10 games in his life and he blew through all of them in an instant. His actual passion is film but his other stuff that isn't AVGN dies or is unpopular (board james or that fear and loathing AVGN episode). So he continued the AVGN thing for far longer than even he gave a shit about but calling him a hack for that is like calling someone going to work a hack
Spiderman, Spiderman, takes a dump in a coffee can
>>744703050Sup benchod bloody bastard retard.
>>744704304shut fucking up fucking bastard good night fucking man
>>744704505DALIT BASTARD FUCKING YOU
>>744704563TELL YOU SHUT FUCKING UP FUCKING BASTDARD I TELL YOU TWO TIMES FUCKING BASTARD TO CALLING FUCKING MAN
>>744701838I still enjoy Brad's Fatal Frame videos>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9H7lsiJhE3s
I FUCKING TRUSTED YOU, MONEY
>>744701993I've softened up on Lets Plays as of late, though I still barely watch them. Tried to watch Chuggaa again after the failed cancelation attempt. Only to stop when he prioritized bluesky, a platform full of the people who tried to cancel himBesides, the real evil nowadays are the videos with facecams taking up the screen. Fuck Twitch for causing this cancer.
it's just amature slop, corporations actually like it like youtube because that means people are easy to feed slop to
>>744701838I am in the process of relistening to all of Zero Punctuation while I'm out running and it's just as good now as it was then. Some episodes have even aged like wine.
>>744701838I turned 30 this year and I've been binging 2 Best Friends Play just to check. They were always funny. They got less funny when they let that annoying ape Woolie take over the channel
>>744701838Speak for yourself, I still enjoy them in my early 30s. Yahtzee's sense of humor still works pretty well, shame he finally gave in to his political biases and started openly telling the people who vote a way he doesn't like to die so I'm done watching him now. But there are still some Let's Players who can do commentary that's fun to listen to while not being very over the top.
>>744702783>>744703212I honestly like listening to him just talk, no fake reactions or anything, about movies. Very relaxing and even when his opinions are strange he's sincere about it.
>>744707303>Yahtzee's sense of humor still works pretty well, shame he finally gave in to his political biases and started openly telling the people who vote a way he doesn't like to die so I'm done watching him nowBefore Hogwarts Legacy, Yahtzee's worst moment was calling Ratchet and Clank a baby game no one should care about. Says the pretentious fuck who loves Portal.
>>744701838adulthood is going back to watching lets plays of pewdiepie amnesia custom stories and realising how on point white people are compared to how brain dead retarded the overly recommended brown skinned black haired channels are. youtube shadowbans white people's channels when it can get away with it
Game Grumps with Jontron is still the funniest shit ever put on the internetI can't believe they were only together for one year
>>744706983>>744707303based, he was one of the only genuinely funny reviewers I've watchedhe's not always right, but the man has a talent for vulgar tongue twisters that I've always appreciated
>>744707524He's a racist AND he's Iranian. There's nothing to like about Jon.
>>744707603The irony of this trannys post is hilarious.
>744707678This guy likes towel heads
>>744707105Rebuttal: the Omikron playthrough is the funniest thing they ever did and Woolie was integral to that
>Ugh, this game is such a cumfarting, diarrhea-having piece of shit! I'd rather suck a log of shit out of a goat's ANUS with a straw than play this game! >*Cuts to a five minute sequence of him fighting an anthropomorphized version of the game before destroying it by throwing it into the sun*
>>744707758He has his moments
>>744707603I PUT A HOLE IN THATNIGGER I PUT A HOLE IN THAT NIGGERBUST A CAP IN THAT NIGGER ...NIGGER
>>744701838>go back to rewatch let's play>check out newer videos>one of the two hosts is now a tranny asking for donations to fix their missing front teeth and the other host sits in silence except for an occasional "Yeah..." and "Right..." for fear of upsetting the tranny
>>744707603>RacistBased>IranianNeutral trait
>>744707918>watch an old YT video of what sounds like a white trucker with an extremely deep voice>newer videos are an obvious voice synth over a airy woman voice>"To all my new viewers, yes, I am transgender"
>>744707105You say that as if the LA Noire LP wasn't the best one they put out.
>>744701838Chris O'Neill has had a direct line to my funny bone my entire life.
>>744707482Portal is great, but Yahtzee's always had a bit of professional critic syndrome where he'll ignore a game having zero gameplay just because it has a decent story and cinematic presentation. He's right that a good story makes a game better, but he gives that aspect too much weight when choosing favorites. At least the guy was one of the few critics actually willing to review Nine Sols.
>>744707524Goof Troop was peak
>he fell for the LP and livestream memeThat's your mistake. Those are designed to be ephemeral, podcasts were always the superior medium. Talkradar and the Rooster Teeth shows are still funny to this day.
>>744707918>>744708006>not posting examplesfake and gay
>>744708878Not either of them but for me it was the guy who used pics of owls as an avatar, though i saw the signs from day 1.
>>744708407this, some old the old newgrounds stuff is still funny too. i think i first saw the sicksons in primary school.
>>744701838based, dont forget they are now leftist faggots who bow to globalist scum and trannies
>all the youtubers I used to think were cringe like game sack are actually very entertaining to me now
>>744707105How have these dudes not starved to death yet? The barely get any views and Woolie doesn't even upload very often.
>>744709492Their podcast is decently popular within its niche
>>744707105I know absolutely nothing about these guys besides Pat showing up in the FF14 streaming circuit recently and he's been an intolerably unfunny faggot every single time I hear him. Putting something on in the background while playing a game and being met with a 45 year old stoner bitching about fuck knows what Canadian politics is a violation of my human rights.
>old AVGNstill funny>old gamesackstill informative>old matthewstill pretty good>old jontronbetter than whatever he's doing now>old vinnyhe used to be funnier and edgier>old mechagamezilla/fitzhonestly I prefer his current persona >old LGRhe's bald now
>>744702783Meh i just accepted the reality that it was actually mike who was the based gamer and james just graciously offered his charisma
>>744702783James isn't a hack. You're just old enough to realize he hit his skill ceiling and are noticing him falling behind.
>>744707801Absolutely infuriates me that autism brainrot has completely pervaded my country.
>>744707105Liam convincing Matt to be less funny and gay was the first wound. Matt's wife was the slit throat though.
>>744701838Idk Nostalgia Critic and AVGN old episodes are still funny. Granted some jokes are stupid and cringe now
>>744701838Looking at slowbeefs channel in 2026 is one of the most depressing things I've ever experienced
>>744701838The very old avgn videos are still funny thougheverbeit.
>>744710606I still laugh at the original Bat Credit Card scene and I'm not sorry to. The fact that he seems like he's about to calm down and then he goes right back to raging twice as hard with no buildup is hilarious.
>>744708878Not video games but I checked the Bible Reloaded guys a few years ago and one turned into a tranny lel. Atheism never ever
>>744710749He was one of the first examples of Troll's Remorse that I ever saw.
>>744701925I still have nostalgia for stuff like that despite how objectively shit most of it was.
>>744708878For the life of me, I can't remember who it was
>>744701838>Adulthood is when you go back to rewatch let's play videos or game reviews and realising how unfunny they are.Actually it's when you go looking for them and finding out they've wiped their entire account and you experience a mild panic attack that your parasocial gamer friend is gone for good.
I still get the urge to rewatch old Spoony content but his continued existence is a blight on the world and to himself
>>744701838I go back and watch SBFP every now and then. Their stuff holds up surprisingly well and I still get a laugh out of a lot of their jokes. I'm glad they left the channel up. It's a shame they all died in a horrible accident right after they broke up and never made any other content on any other channels ever again.
>>744711461Spoony is an amazing case study for the perils of alcoholism. He could yet save lives.
>>744711508They'll get a huge bump when woolie makes it to Heavensward
>>744711461His old stuff honestly holds up well.
>>744708407Despite how of a fag Egoraptor is now I still find Metal Gear Awesome funny.
>>744702840Congratulations on not being the younger brother.
nostalgia critic is timeless and my tastes are evergreen https://youtu.be/74Ufi53RNqw
>>744701838>rewatchI knew 90% of these assholes sucked on a first watch back in 2012. I said back then it was a slippery slope and I hate how right I was.
>>744701838>Watching let's playsLOL
>>744701838No, that's teenagehood. Adulthood is revisiting them and seeing the charm of a small guy trying his darnest.
>>744707801HOLY FUCKING KINOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>744710360Do you unironically believe that mecha is Fitz lol?Fitz>>>>>>>old Mecha>>new Mecha
>>744701925>DarknessTheCurse>RandomDCE>BigAl2k6all of them were core parts of my childhood and when I grew up I realised they were gay faggots.
>>744701838Pokecapn's Sonic 2006 LP still holds up.
>rewatch old NCS vid> IN THE BATHROOM >immediately smile
>>744709079Shammy? Weird that you'd say that because I got the same strange feeling that made me think he was inevitably going to troon out. I think it was something about xis voice
>watch two autists with high pitched voices play shitty games and giggle at everything like total retards>at one point they make a video with a cam announcing that due to jobs the channel will most likely stop uploading new content>turns out these retarded autists with high pitced voices are jacked scandinavian gigachadsThat's like a polar opposite of when a youtuber troons out.
>>744701838I still watch SSoHPKC
>>744708878When it happened to a niche LPer I watched, agentjr, I knew that society was entering a decline
>>744701838Cgr undertow still stands up well to this day.
>>744715343i thought he fell off the earth
>>744713242>>RandomDCEHis smug voice always annoyed me.
>>744701993Based. That's exactly how I felt when PDP and Tomucus or whatever he's called were at their peak. Watching unfunny twats overreact to video games is the lowest form of entertainment. Either play the game yourself or find some better use of your time.
>>744701925>watch old Ross's Game Dungeon episodes again>a lot of his jokes are just him yelling>it's still comfy because his schizo ramblings are interesting
>>744706983ZP as a review show is fucking terrible. 60% of the run time is just making cock puns and yahtzee is a hack in general when it comes to gaming.But if you imagine ZP as a stand up comedy show, it's fine.
The old AVGN episodes are still the best. James was a lot calmer and everything felt more natural. At some point he actually started leaning too hard into the performative anger. His acting is awkward but he's a natural when he's just being chill and sincere. A calm, angry drunk nerd was the best version.
could be worse
>>744716630Ross is best off making videos on games that are as obscure as possible, because once you watch one of a game you're familiar with, you realize how off-base he tends to be with understanding even basic shit about the subject material.
>>744701838>Watch old vod from streamer I used to watch>Just can't jive with it anymore, not really funny>Catch him streaming live>He's married, got a house, got a job and was in the process of being promoted up to regional manager>Doesn't stream much anymore as a result>However I was crying laughing from some of the stories from his jobAt least some people grow with youThough I was 19 when I was first watching that guy, so not like I was a turbo zoomer or something
>>744705151I respect the craft and all the effort he puts in, but man has Chuggaa really failed to branch out when it comes to game choices. I haven't watched any of his LPs in a long time since it's just the same shit over and over. I at least enjoy the one-off videos he puts out now and then.
>>744716993You don't watch Ross for some deep analysis.You watch Ross for sincere passionate autistic ramblings.
>>744716993You're not wrongI remember seeing people raging when he complained about Revenant while ignoring all of the game's mechanics and playing it completely wrongRoss is also not very good at video games in general and will just cheat instead of trying to figure out how to playBut I still love listening to that autistic schizo
>rlm plinkett review of prequel trilogy

>>744701838No retard thats adolescence
>>744718063>trooned out at THIRTY-NINEgrim
>>744701838adulthood isn't realI will die a pathetic child
>>744708878After that gabe and yahtzee show, gabe found a new guy to do streams with. That new guy did it.I didnt watch every episode and genuinely thought it was a comedy bit for the first hour.
>>744701925>A lot of his jokes were just him yelling.That could describe a lot of youtube reviewers, honestly.
>hard "no backseat" rule until done and going for a replay>sucker for completionism and exploring whether the devs thought of some situation or other>low viewer count, no dumb gimmicks, so chat isn't some fucking mess constantly interrupting the stream>minimally edited LPs, just cutting out run-backs or adding minor notes as needed>no dumb avatars, vignettes, or whatever>mainly plays games I'd never play, prefect background entertainment while I focus on whatever elsetop comfy
>>744707303I hate that smug cunt so muchIt feels like his ego isn't a bit anymore and he truly thinks he's the smartest guy around
>>744708407The best part about Chris is just ignoring the guys who left and start dramaThe only time i think he ever acknowledged shit like that was when stamper was deep in the meth psychosis
>>744712582Its hard to be mad at doug when he's self aware at how cringe a lot of the stuff he put out is
>>744701838Edited reviews and gameplay videos with a commentary actually take some efforts unlike let's plays
>>744701838>rewatch
>>744706983>just watched his video about Duke Nukem and Quake>he was complaining about misogyny in the endCringe
>>744701838Cr1tikal's videos before the face reveal are still funny
>>744701838Never happened to me. I constantly watch the same Super Gaming Bros videos every year. It's always funny watching their resident evil and sonic let's plays.>>744715343I still watch uberhaxornova, creatures, and cowchop videos.
>>744719559Cowchop getting cancelled was the slow bleeding wound that started the death of rooster teeth
>>744719617I never cared for rooster teeth. I slowly stopped watching cow chop around the time of their merger. The handful of Prime time unboxing videos and the cuphead let's play was the few things I was interested during the California era.
I still watch chuggaconroy. It's the kind of autism I can't get enough of. His recent KH playthrough was mad comfy.proton jon, whatever happened there..
>The content is even funnier on a rewatch because Adam blew up his life>All those gay jokes>All those jokes about him having a big dong
I have gone all in on the parasocial oneyplays train within the last 3 years. I am 33 years old with friends of my own.
>>744720984forgot image
>>744701838Zoomers having first bit of self reflection in their twenties and realizing why everyone hates them.
>>744721414>People mature as they get olderWow
>>744705151This and the retards who never heard of a pre-amp and place a microphone directly in their fucking faces.Like do none of them realise how movies manage to do it?
>>744701838ONE TWO THREE FOURSEVEN ASSESnope jontron was and is still funny as a 30 year old
Watch it againOne more timeWatch it againOr I'll break your backWatch it agaaaiiinOr I'll punch your fuckin face
>see thread>wondering if my favorite autistic non-sequitur spouting french-canadian still uploads his Let's Plays>he sure doesVery based.
>>744716630>a lot of his jokes are just him yellingAny examples? I cant think of any.
>>744719294He's become more and more of a faggot as the years have gone by.
>>744721414Keep bitching about zoomers. I'm sure your life will get better.
>>744702783It was weird to realize how mentally subnormal AVGN guy really is.
