Thin Crust Posted August 17, 2011 Posted August 17, 2011 I think people lost interest in him. I know I have.
big giant circles Posted August 17, 2011 Posted August 17, 2011 I think people lost interest in him. I know I have. I do phase out occasionally, but he's still as good a writer as he was back when he first caught my interest, so I'm still happy to watch his reviews.
JerryTerry Posted August 17, 2011 Posted August 17, 2011 I think people lost interest in him. I know I have. Or maybe people got sick of waiting through a '30-second' advert that freezes to buffer every 2 seconds while the "Your content will be displayed in..." counter refuses to go down during these periods. Every. Single. Time. Especially when said advert only decides to appear halfway through the episode, returning you to the start of the video after wiping the content your computer had already buffered. Or maybe that's just me. Still watch it every week, though.
The Coop Posted August 17, 2011 Posted August 17, 2011 I've read about those 30-second advertisements, but I've never once seen one when watching the Escapist videos. The only thing I ever see is the surrounding, static game promotion graphics that come up before the videos ever play (which is Dragon Nest at the moment).
KyleJCrb Posted August 17, 2011 Posted August 17, 2011 Thank you, AdBlock, for blocking all of the stupid crap like that.

I was actually thinking about this guy (the show really) when I saw all the junk that was (is) going down with Extra Credits, and wondering where he was.> But now you`re back...
Gollgagh Posted August 18, 2011 Posted August 18, 2011 But now your back... I want to tear your hair out.

Single. Time. That's kind of how I feel about all the Legend of Zelda games and their @$#@%#@#$@#$ing unskippable cutscenes. OH HEY I FOUND ANOTHER COMPASS. THANK YOU SO MUCH NINTENDO FOR EXPLAINING TO ME FOR THE 600TH TIME WHAT THEY DO AGAIN. [/derail] Anyway, hurrah Yahtzee, still fresh and funny to me, I don't mind the ads so much personally. His reviews usually entertain me enough that it's a fair trade.
Scufo Posted August 18, 2011 Posted August 18, 2011 I still watch and like ZP, and adblock is your friend.
Zerothemaster Posted August 31, 2011 Posted August 31, 2011 I was just watching the LOZ:OOC one. At school. I had to stop because I didn't want to burst out laughing XD
Phonetic Hero Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 i was just watching the loz:ooc one. At school. I had to stop because i didn't want to burst out laughing xd fuck me it's cold in here Edit: Goddammit, my caps isn't working... I'm a lot angrier than I appear, but you can't tell. Because I have no capitals OH OK NOW IT WORKS DERP
big giant circles Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 Deus Ex: Human Revolution I stopped watching towards the end when he gave the spoiler warning. Seems like he liked it otherwise though!
FuriousFure Posted September 15, 2011 Posted September 15, 2011 Looks like he actually liked this game. barely any real criticisms and every dislike seemed ended with "but it doesn't disrupt the flow" I never really got into the driver games and what I saw of Driv3r made me want to stay further away, but might need to check this one out.
Gario Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 Yes, I'd gather he liked the game since he actually said he liked the game from the offset.
FuriousFure Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 Yes, I'd gather he liked the game since he actually said he liked the game from the offset. ah. well, I do apologize for contributing to the thread, I thought it was a satisfactory, albeit obvious, opening statement. Although, it could have been seen as synopsis instead of a revelation. I wonder how is going to feel about Gears of War 3, if/when he wants to review it. I'm sure this one is going feature even more hair tussling!
KyleJCrb Posted September 30, 2011 Posted September 30, 2011 Resistance 3 I gotta say this is one of my favorite recent reviews. Absolutely hilarious.
Gollgagh Posted October 5, 2011 Posted October 5, 2011 oh I'm not sure when it happened, but the in/outro is now normalized! yay!
