Dunkey is viewed as a reviewer. He has even taken steps to legitimize that notion. He's also a low brow moron that probably hates RPG's due to having to read too much. Some of these guys are going in with their mind made up, playing the game as shitty as possible to get views, and taking it to the bank. Fags that are supposed to be offended by gaming "journalists" being shills and liars, are just giving it a free pass, due to it being the narrative that they want to back. It's all in good fun, right? This is usually because Kojima has a bad rap due to being such a fucking autist with horrible translators. For example the MGS V Quiet thing..
"Reviewers" who don't know their shit just piss me off. There's nothing lamer than those videos where someone shits on a game, but is purposefully playing it badly. "Haha look at this bad design" he says, meanwhile he's acting like an absolute fucking retard so of course the game acts iffy. Meanwhile there could have been a dozen valid complaints or things to laugh about, but no, the "reviewer" has to go out of his way to act like a clueless idiot. It often happens with those shitty management and simulator games which legitimately have a lot to make fun of: glitches, boring repetitive gameplay, wonky physics. But no, a lot of "gaming youtubers" refuse to read the instructions then act clueless and say "Huh, what does this do? How do I do this? I have no idea what I'm doing, the game is shit!"
It's boring and lame and I have to keep myself from shouting at the screen: "THE GAME TOLD YOU HOW TO DO THAT 5 MINUTES AGO YOU FUCKING IMBECILE, THERE WAS AN EXPLICIT TUTORIAL MESSAGE YOU ABSOLUTE FUCKING RETARD!!"
I enjoy gaming youtubers who actually know their shit a lot more. Ross' Game Dungeon is an excellent series, that guy actually researches the games he plays and gives even the shittiest, wonkiest Eurojank a fair chance. Civvie11 is a great reviewer for FPS games, he obviously has experience in the genre, his gameplay is competent, and his jokes are usually pretty decent too. And when he complains about a game being shit, he knows what he's talking about: excessive use of hitscan enemies, shitty weapon handling and floaty movement, bad level design etc. He actually criticizes the design faults of a game while playing it competently. Sseth is also entertaining for that reason, he pumps his videos full with memes and terrible jokes, but at the same time he also knows wtf he's talking about, explicitly describes the gameplay, and picks some gameplay situations he encountered during his playthrough as examples. Icaruslives is also a youtuber I enjoy a lot, he mostly covers Doom mods (but recently also Half Life mods) and he's probably covered 100 mods by now, so he's experienced with the game he's playing and he knows what the fuck he's talking about.
Those are the kinds of videos I enjoy watching: actually competent gamers talking about games in either an informative or funny way, while playing them at a decent skill level.
Clueless retards playing in the most retarded way possible and then laughing at how the game doesn't accomodate their retardation and calling it shit are absolute cancer and just as bad as paid game journo shills.
