And of course that poster was active in the Cyberpunk threads...
But I assumed EyeAskQuestions is an alt anyway.
I understand the complaints about him, but what's bad about his Youtube channel?
A curious post from someone who literally could not believe what unfolded on January 6th
Shit, I never followed this dude much, so I'm just finding out about all of this. Congrats to IGN on giving a platform to insurrection apologists.
He read it alright. That was intentional.
I mean they gave a platform to Moriarty who believes in the "model Minority" myth
I mean there was no way to parse that, especially with others making similar posts but unironically.
I agree. "Yikes" or "That's certainly a take" posts are just as annoying as posts that say "^This^" because they contribute nothing to the discussion and it feels like patting yourself on the back for simply acknowledging that a take is bad. Makes this place feel like Reddit where there's an unspoken agreed-upon lingo that garners popularity because it's the "proper" response. If you have something to say, type that shit out so the lurkers can learn something from this discourse.
Eh. I didn't read the entire thread linked (his running to NeoGaf at this point doesn't help) but was never a particularly huge fan of his work beforehand regardless of his politics. This is obviously a subjective thing, but imo has a tendency to ramble and mash his words together, it can make listening to his videos a chore at points. I feel Alex & John are more relaxed and just sketch out what they're going to say a little more succinctly, as well Alex takes pains to explain the details of certain features better - NxGamer tends to rattle off a list of rendering terms without actually explaining what they mean.
It helps to have another outlet that's going to do deep dives as DF can't cover them all, but based on their work over the years DF is still going to be my primary source for these types of comparisons. Doesn't mean they're flawless, they can miss things - in this video for example, apparently the PS5 has dual reflections in some cases where the PC/Xbox versions don't.
Otoh, in his video he compares the 2070 (he calls it a '2070 super', whereas previously in the video he states it's an overclocked 2070, 'so it's closer to a 2070 super' - that's uh, highly debatable when the 2070 super is 15-25% faster than a 2070, an overclock does not give you that) to PS5/Series X and states that they have superior RT reflection performance comparing the fps in photo mode - but we know (from Alex) that the console versions are running the reflections with shorter ray casting and checkerboarded res, settings which you simply can't match on the PC. A minor point to be sure, but I think Alex tends to be more accurate with that kind of stuff.

Whether people think he was treated harshly here or not, if he jumped straight to Neogaf and is fine with the discourse there... Nothing more really needs to be said.
Well. I missed this. Disappointing. let me go unfollow his channel.

Oh well I didn't know that and now I'm so disappointed.
It feels like this thread is being brigaded. People couldn't be more obvious if they tried. At least I can feed my ignore list.
Eh, when you call people that were fearing that the country could come to an end on the 6th "hateful", and run off to gaf, I don't feel bad about it.
If nothing else, some people definitely have their blinders on and their fingers in their ears about this.
Couldn't agree more. These "both sides" gray area assholes need to get recognized and banned just like him.
There's bad takes and then there's both sidesing a coup attempt and BLM. He can fuck right off with that shit. There's been plenty of time to learn over the past year and his "take" wasn't some one off dipping his toe in shit. The guy is garbage, plain and simple. How about he go put in the effort to go redeem himself on his own without anyone needing to give him the benefit of the doubt.
Holy shit that reply to Alex... His replies in general. I had totally missed that. Those were the absolute worst fucking takes.
I wake up this fine Tuesday morning and the first thing is being milkshake ducked by NX Gamer...Fuck.
Gamersnexus is usually pretty good, i think what people miss about that review is it's based around 120fps, which the "full fat desktop ryzen 2's" in consoles show they are in fact cut down & struggle to compete with desktop cpu's, when it comes to GPU bottlenecks though, the GTX 1060 can't even beat the One X.
$500 PC isn't beating PS5/SX in 95% of real world scenarios, so the title is very click baity.
Yeah and consoles aren't even 4 months old. Year 3-4 gonna do wonders.
Providing someone has brought this up to ign i'm sure they will deal with this within the week. Those expecting companies to do a deep dive fbi background check with every potential hire are delirious. Unless you specifically find that thread on nx gamer here it's hard to find.
I don't think anyone has. Doesn't appear like anyone cares on ign's twitter or youtube

How are all these political 'conversations' not shut down/banned by the mods, or at least moved to a different section of the site. If you want to talk about politics go to a politics forum. Last I checked this is a gaming forum for gamers to talk about games. Could care less what the guy does or doesn't believe, his content is great.
I doubt it, they kept that plagiarizing dude on staff for more than five seconds after that story broke, so this might take awhile.

GODAMNIT!
Speaking of Colin's Last Stand, I see ACG and MrMattyPlays is part of Colin's new Last Stand Media thing.
No they pulled his review and froze him as a worker while they reviewed the situation. You can't put down your employees point blank based on allegations. Doing so is an invitational to get sued in the future.
Oh I'm well aware. I didn't post that out of naivete. I think most people genuinely come here to talk about games and would welcome a crackdown on the political crap. It's crazy how blatant/pervasive it's gotten. All these sad political/ideological witch hunts have little to do with the hobby of gaming. We can do better.
This forum was founded on the "political crap." Everyone who has an issue with it should leave. They will not be missed.
