man i sure do love watching videos that have really cool information in them told in an exciting and engaging manner only for the dude talking in it to feel the need to morally grandstand about how elon musk and john carmack are pricks at the end after reading off a sponsor for a fucking nft gambling game.

@pettanko @beardalaxy I used to enjoy him back when he was the HVGN. I learned about a lot of underrated classics (like StarTropics) from him. I even enjoyed some of his SSFF videos as it got me to appreciate the development efforts of even the worst games and consoles.
@xianc78 @pettanko I like his videos a lot for the most part, tbh I couldn't care less what someone believes or how they act outside of the media they produce but once it starts seeping in to that, especially if it's just cringe as fuck, that's when I'm disappointed.
This is why I like brutalmoose a lot too, the dude is gay and has a boyfriend but he never brings it up because it isn't the fucking point. Like, if you want to be treated like a normal person, you should act like a normal fucking person.
@beardalaxy @pettanko I haven't watched brutalmoose in years. He went through a major style change around 2015-2016 and now he doesn't even review games anymore (at least not since the last time I checked).
I kind of stopped caring about e-celebs after the vast majority of them bent the knee to BLM. It got even worse with some of them during 2021 as they told their viewers to get vaccinated at the end of their videos.
@xianc78 @pettanko yeah he mostly does like food and movie reviews now, but his editing style is so fucking hilarious to me.
