He actually doesn't wear the hat any more; neckbeards in cargo shorts ruined it for him. If you listen to Let's Drown Out, he's actually a pretty cool guy.
>>
its the problem with the fact that he made a specific product that was popular instead of forming his channel around himself. look at AVGN, he gets like 2mil views on his AVGN videos but all the other shit on his channel gets nothing. meanwhile markiplier just derps on camera for 10 minutes and no matter what gets millions of views.

I respect what yahtzee did more but he did the wrong thing from a business standpoint. now he has one thing that sustains him that is faltering and no one is interested in anything else he's got. he should have appealed to the autists/children by making stupid noises and yelling in short bursts instead.

He makes games himself, he's not a writer for a video game company, he writes articles and makes videos for the escapist. Some of his shitty games are sold on steam but most of them are free.
I normally agree with the guy but he's so insecure it hurts to watch his let's drown outs. Constantly reassuring himself, tooting his own horn and at times it feels like Gabe just plays along so he doesn't kill himself.

He was another one of those "us gamers" ecelebs that rose to prominence several years ago. There was no way that wave was going to roll on forever.

As far as his actual product, what's there to see? Yet another game "review" youtube clip? Some cheap animation? Jokes spoken in pressured speech so you don't have excess time to consider if they're actually funny or not?

Perhaps he should rework the show into actual reviews/critiques and not just "point out obvious flaws while making irreverent yet still dull jokes."

I do appreciate how he manages to talk about American politics in most of his newer videos. Because nothing is quite as fascinating as a british guy living in australia's opinion on america and who should be their president!

He lives in Brisbane, my home city and I see him around the place every so often.

Yahtzee is doing fine and will continue to do fine for a long time. Naturally the numbers will decline, but it will take like another 10 years for ZP to lose any kind of significant viewerbase, probably even longer considering the consistency of content and lack of any kind of competition. Yahtzee is pretty much the only reviewer in the middle ground between braind dead funneh videos for underage and 40 minute autism about shit that you can figure out by playing game for 5 minutes.

he's not a virgin, he lost it to an australian girl he met on the internet and she lived in the uk with him for a bit but she went back to australia, so Yahtzee followed and they were together for a while. They broke up eventually and then Yahtzee reviewed the Sims 3 and you can tell he's a bit bitter about it in that video.

Now they cycle's repeating itself with an American girl who lived in Australia for a bit but now she lives in San Francisco. I look forward to his Sims 5 review.

It sold well for the same reason he got this publishing contract to begin with: he was very popular at the time, so Dark horse decided to bank on it, came to him and offered him to write a book about video games.

But Yahtzee asked for his GOTY not "the" GOTY because "the" GOTY doesn't exist since there is no objective metric to choose one.

He means the game you enjoyed the most might not be the best of the year, in terms of craft and design.

You might ironically like shitty movies but you're not going to claim Troll 2 was the best movie of the year even if you fucking loved it.

I don't get how Yahtzee didn't understand this
>>
>>344146429
It's the two misunderstanding each other's use of "GOTY." Gabe going to the "choose what is objectively the best game of this year" bullshit websites do and Yahtzee just asking him what his favorite game this year was.

This is usually followed up by Gabe not answering the question directly and explaining his opinion on GOTY for way too long.
>>
>>344146429
The really hilarious part was that both of them completely agreed that the concept of Game of the Year as defined by the yearly awards is stupid. Yatzeh just happened to used that term to mean his "favourite game of the year".

Also
>Gabe: I don't believe in the term "Game of the Year"
>Gabe: I don't think my favourite game of the year deserves to be called game of the year.

So he forces himself to believe in terms that he doesn't believe in? I'm siding with Yatzeh on this one.
>>
>>344146556
Because he's a self-centered narcissit, to him any view that isn't his is just stupid.

But he honestly believes that him not beating it was game's bad design. Especially now that he believes himself to be turbo hardcore because he played through Dark souls, so these days the moment he dies in a game it must be maximum bullshit deathtrap that literally nobody can beat on their first try and it's all just developer's plot to make him lose his precious self-esteem.

ikr, I watch his reviews every wednesday because I love his format, the way he speaks, his puns and stupid jokes. It puts me in a good mood for the rest of the day.

He praises a game I like: "yay he thinks like me"
He doesn't like a game I like: "oh well, he's entitled to his opinion"
He praises a game I don't like: actually he never did so far for me
He doesn't like a game I don't like: "I know right?"

It's for the best you don't. I watch it for comedic value too but he was too vehement about the quality of that turd. Lost massive amounts of credibility especially considering he's supposed to be a writer yet didn't realize just how broken the storyline and characterization of that game was.

I stopped watching because every video was the same. The entire show feels like a reason to have a comedy bit rather than to actually talk about the game and while that's not necessarily a bad thing and all, when he's using the same style of comedy I'll simply get tired of it eventually.
