I watched this a few minutes ago and wanted to share it:
Mod edit. Media removed

Edit: Didn't know who Nick Robinson is so I am not sure what to do with this thread. Should I ask a mod to lock it or what do you guys think?

I am leaning towards requesting a lock or removing the video because I do not want to support this guy after what I read up about him.

You should really put a warning if you're going to link to videos by Nick Robinson. Plenty of people don't want to support his work, with good reason.

I am not familiar with him so what did he do?

Thanks for the warning btw

Wait really? Haven't heard of the guy before. Is it more #MeToo stuff?

Yep. Agreed. I got bamboozled!

Is he the guy who was being creepy in girls DMs and said he wanted to bang Krystal from Star Fox adventures?

He was fired from Polygon following widespread allegations of sexual harassment.

Oh lmao. It's that dude.

Too bad I really want to watch the video, but I'm on my iPhone, I'll likely wait until I get home and watch it with adblock.

That really should put the kibosh on the whole argument. He thinks it's realy good, that it pays respects to the groundwork laid by him and SM2, and it wants to make him explore more of the game. Happy ending.

I can confirm the former, but I'm sure about the latter. But probably.

Sexually harassed women, with at least one of them apparently being underage at the time

Thanks, I have read up on him now and I am not sure what to do with the thread, should I request a lock?

This guy liking it doesn't invalidate the opinions of those who prefer SM2 swinging.

Maybe just ask the mods to add in a trigger warning, since the actual content of the video is gaming related and would be of interest to people here?

I'd just leave it. Let people watch it if they want.

I watched it, like you not knowing anything about the guy, and it's a fun video.

Maybe just put a disclaimer in the original post for those who do want to avoid him.

Your call really. I just didn't want to let anyone inadvertantly support his work. I can see arguments for and against wanting the thread locked, but either way I think it's worth including the broader context of who the creator is so people can make their own decisions. Your edit is enough for me I think.

Alright, will request a title change to warn people.

We do not provide a platform for Nick Robinson or his content here.
