What a great video. Im glad James has finally answered the questions at the end (even though the answers have been painfully obvious to the rational side of the fanbase lol).

My real beef is his setup. Surely he could simplify it a lot and have a setup he doesnt have to deconstruct whenever hes not doing a couch shot right?

ToastyOne posted...
Poor James, he's so out of touch and clueless. "Would you want me to just release three avgn videos a year?". Fucking yes if it meant you did it yourself without screenwave meddling.

That embarrassing onion gag frustration blooper was honestly more entertaining than most recent avgn videos.
The out of touch fans love to cry that Screenwave is ruining the channel, but putting out 3 videos a year would actually kill the channel. AVGN is his livelihood, and you just dont make money off of YouTube by producing so little content.

Sequence breaking in SM is highly overrated. Yes, it's there and yes it provides replayability but people act like it was a genius thing that was way ahead of its time. I'm pretty sure the devs wasn't tryna make it possible for you to beat the game backwards when giving you sequence breaks in SM.
There is sequence breaking you can do in Zero Mission too. Its not an accident

Yes, the dialogue with the computer takes forever and theres no skip button. Id honestly love if MercurySteam got to take a crack at the remake they originally pitched. This and some other issues could be fixed.

The Super Metroid game can be said to offer the greatest flexibility for exploration in the series. You can enjoy similar flexibility in the Metroid Dread game, depending on how you take advantage of your abilities. You might be able to find ways to obtain weapons, items, and abilities earlier than the intended timing. We encourage you to try to discover alternate routes of exploration.

There's a side mission in Sonic Unleashed where you have to complete the Arabia level in an incredibly strict time limit. I had to have played that challenge maybe 50+ times without luck until one time I accidentally clipped through the wall and skipped a particularly challenging segment and won. I really shouldnt have though.
Happened to me a lot in Super Meat Boy I had a shitty computer that would drop frames and sometimes that would let me clip thru walls for some reason.

BakonBitz posted...
Only one time that I can remember. It was Metroid Prime Hunters, got matched in a room with a bunch of expert players but I'm only one star and generally play pretty terrible. Somehow I managed to play way better than I normally do and pulled out a win against all of them. Wish the game had replays, I would've saved that.
Hunters multiplayer was interesting before people figured out that the optimal strat was to sit still as Trace (because he autostealths with the sniper rifle while standing still) and trying to nail people with headshots for instant kills

It's funny, it feels like AVGN's fanbase nitpicks his show more than the character nitpicks video games. The show has always been hit or miss, and even recent episodes I have felt have been worth the watch half the time. Same as it goes with the old ones, though more of them are hits for me. James has aged, and the video format has aged.

Demon1050 posted...
Couldn't stand Mike either. Talk about a leech.
You could tell that Mike wished the show was about him. I found his on-screen personality annoying but he's been there from the beginning and his fingerprint was on everything... he helped James with a lot of the production of the show, and the reason he was in front of the camera to begin with besides a few characters on AVGN, because they needed extra content to pad the channel in between episodes...

I wonder how that "streaming career" is treating him to be honest.
