Matthewmatosis is great if you like in depth analysis on game design, mechanics, gameplay, level design, etc.

Super Bunnyhop is great if you like in depth analysis on business, history, background info, etc.

The correct answer is both because they compliment each other.

The only thing that SBH did better than Matt on MGS was releasing a fucking video about MGS V. I know that Matt takes longer to digest his ideas and to form something to say but now that he isn't working MAYBE he should focus a little more on making videos, he should remember the words that most "artist" have to face sooner or later "real artist" ship material.

actually, considering how long it takes him to make videos, how much time would you guys be willing to wait in between vids from him?

Personally, I think he could go for once a month, the mario reviews were almost all once a month even, though to be fair it's all one "series" so maybe once every 2 months would be more manageable for him?

I wonder if he feels pressured to put out better content now that he's doing this full time.

I've never understood the whole idea of wanting a set schedule of video release.
I think Matt (or anyone else) should simply take as much time as he needs to make the best content he can.
I guess I'm not super involved in Youtube, but I'm not actively waiting for a new video. It's just that, one day it'll pop up in my subscription list and it'll be a nice surprice. I can entertain myself in the meantime.

analysis of art rubs me the wrong way a lot of the time. subjectivity is never emphasised. the language used is always assuming your position: i.e. "_you_ feel this way when x happens". i hate that rhetoric. the other part that rusttles me is the way inductive logic is treated deductively, as though their conclusions are solid, undeniable and not just some decent conjecture. objective value is an oxymoron.

Really? It's just more strong sounding when you say it that way. I don't get why people need to acknowledge art is subjective when talking about it.

It seems like a waste of time to mention this everytime and would come off as condescending.

I like him a lot but it kind of bothers me that he thinks the people behind the Souls games didn't care about the world building. It's fine if he doesn't care about the lore, and I get that people go way overboard with analysis, but I don't see how you can play a game like Bloodborne or Demons' Souls and not find coherency in what little plot is fed to you. Coming across Upper Cathedral Ward is chilling if you pay attention to shit.

The problem with videogame analysis on YouTube is that it's not actual academic analysis. It's structured properly and is conducted as an argument properly, but unlike in academia, art, music, or even gastronomy, there is no dialogue. There is no colloquium. It's just a podium and an opinion is offered and the listener can just agree or disagree and move on. This isn't a problem itself, the problem lies in the people that will repeat and mold their opinion based off something that is misinformed, shortsighted, or just plain wrong.

You could also say that videogames outside of indies are unsuitable for an artistic or similarly focused critique simply because of the medium. You can analyze parts, but the whole is a lot less cohesive than say a dish from the Pavilion or a Monet or a Bach. You end up analyzing it as a mechanic does a car - well this worked and this didn't. There's very little depth in an argument about the choice of a sportscar to include a spoiler or what inch rims they have. Similar in games outside of a few exceptional ones, a design decision isn't often an artistic choice.

I don't watch too much Super Bunnyhop but I remember him taking a historical and technical approach with his analysis - and that seems to be a better choice than anything artistic or literary.

Fundamentally, that's what an analysis is. It's an argument. It's a statement X because of reasons: A, B, C and i'll pop u in da mouf if u disagree m8.

In fact, with literary analysis, that's the entire point. You analyze using lenses like socialist, feminist, historical, etc. A writer isn't saying Mark Twain was a goddamn commie. They're saying Huckleberry represents X quality of Communism as can be seen by Y reference from the Communist Manifesto.

It's not trying to put words in the creator's mouth. It's using the art piece as a platform for a larger idea.

That's not the only way to conduct an analysis, and I'm not saying whatever analyses you were thinking of were good or anything, I just wanted to explain why it comes off as pretentious. Because that's pretty much what analysis is. You gotta go deep up your butt.

>>335841813
Actually the main reason I find it pretentious is because many of them are very verbose and seem like they are trying to sound smarter than they are. Also by agenda I meant politically. I am fine with someone having an argument in their video, even beyond this game is good or bad, but I don't want to hear bullshit about how it's a eco-feminist socialist blah blah blah. That's why I prefer hearing just some guy talk about his views because typically it won't be to push something political. Academics seem to be obsessed with politics as if something isn't worth talking about unless it relates to politics. Maybe not all Academics are like this but from my experience they are not very common.

I wish there were more videos like the Devs Play with John Romero. That shit's great and none of the other Devs Play videos lived up to it, which is a shame because as cool as the John Romero one was, he's already talked about Doom so much that it lost its novelty. It's always nice to hear designers talk indepth about how they made their games and why certain choices were made, though.

On the subject of comfy fun videos where people talk about vidya, does anybody else watch Easy Allies? I'm really worried because their videos only get a couple thousands views each. I really hope they don't stop.

https://youtu.be/dCNnzEWy-1w?t=24m13s

I love their podcasts and stuff, but my favorite video series of theirs so far is Brandon Plays Pokemon. The dude has literally never touched a Pokemon game before. His only knowledge is random stuff he's learned through osmosis like what a Pikachu or Charizard is. But everything else- like, he literally didn't even know what a Gym Leader was called. He's trying to catch all the pokemon because it's fun to him. He's nicknaming all of his Pokemon (E.G. his Jigglypuff is called 'gonyny", like a parent telling their child to go to sleep). He thinks the fossil he got was for Onyx. He naturally taught himself about switching pokemon out to level them both up. He's reading all the pokedex entries because he genuinely wants to know what's going on in this world.

The video timecode above is him losing his shit about each Pokemon having their own sound effect- something incidental to you or me, but he loves it. The second episode also has him freaking out about how cool Paras being the fungus is, which is another good highlight.

You missed the fact that he already went through so many of these types of videos that he's desperate for more, despite the poor quality.

I watched that, don't really like the Sonic games, but I watched it.

It's pretty interesting stuff, and its funny to watch it after Weedmans 40min video on Sonic.

Matt IS a programmer, that is why I don't give a shit about SBH but I actually care about Matt's opinion, his opinion comes from a point of knowleadge, he understand what is he talking about when he talks about game design and the like.

Bunnyhop is much more professional and knows how to present himself and his arguments, if not in an objective way, then in a non-confrontational one.

Like, there are a lot of his opinions I disagree with, but his professionalism is such that I don't hold it against him at all. This is the guy who likes gone homo, and yet generally has a positive image on /v/.

Whereas Matthew can't resist making petty shots and thinks that being verbose is being articulate.

Fromsoftware has been making "open-world" games since King's Field, god damn it's not that impressive.
>>
>>335838752
Oh absolutely. I'm happy any time he creates a new video, and although I wish I could see more, I'm completely fine because I know that he takes his time so that he can create the videos he wants to create.

That said, I do think there is power in consistency, and not just for the audience. I don't know what Matt's process is, so I can't really say anything about it, but I think having deadlines could potentially push him to really get a handle of what his own process is. This way, he can make the videos he wants to make more effectively. I want him to take his time, but I want him to push his own process so he can more effectively make videos.

All that said, I think schedules can be tough to get into, and if anything I would never want him to rush any of his works.
>>
>>335845876
>his opinion comes from a point of knowleadge
This better be bait, he has such a limited knowledge of the technical aspects of games it's laughable.
You could become more informed than him by simply reading a few wiki pages.
>>
>>335840521
>>335839783
Thanks for bringing up NitroRad, I watched his Silent Hill videos awhile ago, liked them, but never subscribed.

I then promptly forgot about him.

But now I can fix that.
>>
>>335845682
Matthew's voice is one of the best things about the videos though. Being foreign isnt a bad thing.
>>
>>335846213
King's Field's openness wasn't nearly as impressive though. The amount of sequence breaking you can do in the beginning of Dark Souls 1 is genuinely impressive and not something you'll see in any other games of that type.
>>

Clemps is super gay, but pretty good. I think he is starting Nier soon, which should be fun.

It's not a debate
Matthew has a better accent, puts out longer, more thoughtful videos with more focused things to say
SBH is a fuckwit who puts out whatever is likely to get him traffic
>>
>>335846109
I could do the same if you ask me to explain you how the weight distribution of an structure works, I know how and why it works the way it does but I study to understand it not to explain it.

I am more interested in the opinions he is able to form thanks to his knowleadge.

Joseph Anderson, except that his Dragon's Dogma vid was wrong in places. The series strengths and sequel changes video for Bloodborne was great though, really interesting analysis of how the healing system works and effects each game in the soulsborne series. Game Maker's Toolkit and Turbo Button are also good
>>
>>335846545
More than worth it since you can just avoid all of that shit by staying hollow. The online functions felt poorly thought out in general but the world design of the early areas really IS quite impressive.
>>
>>335846521
I meant that he literally did not understand how those things work
>>
>>335846248
He demonstrated quite a bit of in depth knowledge in his DS1 video when he hit Blighttown.

Not even sure if it was all right it was such techno babble to me.

I will not argue this, but as >>335845489
>>335845694 say I mostly listen to long-form videos while doing something else.

Most of the time its while playing a game, sometimes for homework.

It would be hard to sit and watch some 4 hours long without anything else to do.

I really like Matt, he seems the type of person who could probably make his own game if he tried enough.

Super Bunnyhop is good, but he can come off as a bit pretentious on some occasions and over analyzing things that are just blatantly obvious.
>>
>>335832583
I like his style of videos but I tend to not like the games he likes at all, besides Souls and Bloodborne. Fucking Tomb Raider remakes, really?

I want matthew's videos to have time stamps, sometimes its a little annoying to have to skip around a whole video to try to find some specific points.

His Sonic video was spot-on though. Not that it's hard to critique Sonic as a series anymore, but still, gotta praise something done well.
>>
>>335847809
He was much more lenient than I think anyone expected him to be.
>>
>>335846601
When his DS2 series came out I ignored it, but after watching it he did a good job improving my thoughts on the game.

I still think its the worst souls game, but the series is such high quality that isn't really a bad thing.
>>
Matt's videos are nicely put together and relaxing to watch.
People get hung up on the semantics of what a "review" should and shouldn't contain.
It would be better if he labeled his videos "thoughts on..."

I like SBH's videos and style.
And I give the guy big respect that he doesn't seem to care about making mouthbreathers analpained by talking about games like gone home.
It's refreshing to see someone who's up to speed with the current goings on in the industry, but hasn't been sucked in by the kneejerk gg/sjw bullshit that is the biggest cancer in the community.

SBH has a higher proportions of videos that are good to MM. Chances are this is probably because SBH releases A LOT more videos period, but at the current moment there are definitely more moments proportionally of MM talking out of his ass than SBH does. Numerically though SBH definitely has more moments of talking out of his ass, but again, it may just be related to how much content he releases.

Not only that, MM loses extra points because people are patreoning this guy money and he hasn't done jack shit in a long time to show for it. If we can shit on bad Kickstarter people for doing similar stuff, or Anita, MM should be held to similar judgement for doing what at the moment seems to be just that.

So yeah. SBH I guess is better because of those reasons and also being a better communicator.

>>335842393
>>335841028
I do somewhat agree to this. Academic Analysis does have it's shitty moments, but I think that's kinda new. It's like how now that there are people in STEM that care more about money and fame/le epic discovery we are having an increasing number of bullshit submitted to even the more prestigious journals. The more different agendas start to come into play rather than just actual discussion of the subject, the more this will happen. That's why I feel that it's easier to find good analyses that are older because there was less shit to sift through. It's why for example one would also find great analyses of classical music but often find ignorant analyses of modern popular music, too.

>>
>>335848064
The only times I'd have to say Matt talks out of his ass in my opinion is during his Demon's Souls and Dark Souls commentaries, when he mostly tries to be on the game's side for being fair and tries to explain why the things are fair, but it clearly isn't fair in anyway.

But I do like how most of the time with that stuff he usually will just state that it's his opinion and it's debatable whether the thing was fair or not.

Dustforce had some of this, too where he was trying to dodge around his nitpicking nature cuz he just marked out hard for the game. Then there's the Bioshock Infinite "time travel plothole" which is explained away minutes before the scene with Elizabeth saying "constants and variables" 1000000 times to establish that the universe has these rules. A last minute asspull for sure, but still exists so that the plothole Matt brought up doesn't exist.
