i used to like caleb, but his douchey, stealing-the-spotlight speech after that race he lost really soured me on him.

Which race was that?

Every time I watch Yoshi's Island I'm kinda floored by how stupid technical the game is.

I'm just constantly amazed by how well the game has aged in basically every single way.

Trihex is doing an amazing job of solo commentary so the run is still good. It sucks that everytime he tries to get his co-commentator to help him though he just gets dead air. He hasn't said a single useful thing.

Did they actually find a good Touhou game to play this year so there might be something redeeming about it?

I have no loving idea. I know nothing about that stuff beyond how creepy it comes off as.

On the schedule the games are: Marisa and Alice's Trap Tower and Youyou Kengeki Musou. Sooooooo......?

Gonna hazard a guess that at least one of these is a bad SMW clone.

That's Miyamoto.

Apparently he had a grudge against that game because it came out during the development of Yoshi's Island and everyone but him fell in love with the art style. For the entirety of Yoshi's Island's development, he had to fight off people wanting to change the art-style to pre-rendered CG like DKC.

He's since admitted the game isn't as bad as he used to say it was.

I think the DKC games are hideous and Yoshi's Island has aged wonderfully so Miyamoto was right.

I feel bad for this kid because I'm really bad at trying to talk and play video games or do other tasks at the same time, but if you KNOW THIS AHEAD OF TIME, then why are you doing your own commentary and not bring in a friend to explain poo poo for you.

Why.

This guy thinks he's good at commentary though. He thinks he's hilarious, which is why he doesn't shut up. If he just stuck too explaining stuff and not trying so hard to make jokes he'd be fine. Nobody has ever told him he's not funny.

then blame the game devs for being really lacking in imagination, not the imaginary character in a videogame that has nothing except what other people put into it

I keep trying to come up with a response to this but I can't even parse it. Are you saying people always have to say they dislike the creators of fictional characters rather than the character themself? Why??

me: videogame people aren't real people, but game developers are, and a character getting in stuck in a dumb trap or two in a resident evil game is what always happens because the game developers say so

i'm not gonna talk about it anymore but there's a big difference between saying 'this person is an rear end in a top hat' or 'this person is really annoying' and going 'i hate this person because they get stuck in traps' in a resident evil game of all things. it's b-grade horror movie poo poo.

Yeah and I hate basically every other character in the series too because its all written poorly. Didn't realize I had to mention that in my post to keep you from going off on an absurd tangent.
