Being a nerd craving movie and game reviews back in 2009 was rough.

Back then I spent more time on tgwtg than I did youtube. You have no idea how many terrible, several minute skits I had to sit through in order to get the reviews I came for.

Complaining about the reviewer making unfunny quips every two seconds is amateur hour.

The worst are the ones that use loud outtakes from meme videos.

Becoming? That channel’s whole vibe is ‘edgy teen plays shooters and makes Your Mom jokes’.

I was subbed for a while because I enjoy classic FPS content, but his bits got tired real fast.

The starfield review was enough for me

Kinda related, about a week ago I finished all these video essays from a particular channel that covers obscure late 90s/early 2000s point and click adventure and survival horror games and started thinking about a game called "D" and started looking for similar videos on that game without being able to find much.

Yesterday, not really looking for anything in particular I see an hour long video about "D" popup in my front page... And it was the freaking GameGrumps. Like, no hate or anything cuz I do like the guys, but cmon. I wanted an essay going into detail about the history of the game (because it has a pretty gnarly origin story) and the universe seemed to have heard me asking, but monkey pawed my ass. 😞

what channel are we talking

EarlyBird

Of all the reviews she has done, the only one I had any prior knowledge of was The Neverhood. I am shocked at how many of these adventure games I definitely would have loved if I knew about them back in the 90s.

He wants the D.

I cannot stand those youtubers that interupt a video every second to add commentary like XQC. speak for a minute, then watch a minute
