Last night I decided to torture myself and watch his review of the last of us 2. Here are some takeaways

At least he's fair and admits the gameplay is great

Half of his story complaints come from whining about romance and sex scenes that are there to enhance characterization but he's too busy acting like a five-year-old thinking girls have cooties to understand how any of it relates to the characters

He's so stupid he spends like 10 minutes talking about how the game generated strong reactions from him making him feel like a bad person by criticizing that as a negative even though that's the point. The game succeeded in eliciting one of many intended reactions. This is something a lot of YouTube gamers fail to understand because it's much easier to cry and claim critics got paid when in reality they were just approaching the game as a piece of art instead of restricting gaming from coming outside the box of only being categorized as fun

In Phil's defense, he does admit that the game is fine if you see it as a piece of art. But he takes the dumbest most roundabout way to get there and didn't need to spoil the entire game in his review. Real critics such as myself were able to write thoughtful reviews only vaguely discussing the second half of the game instead of point-blank spoiling everything

He's another idiot doesn't understand Ellie is going to have a different personality after five years which is not character assassination. You think someone that practically dated a teenager would understand they are always growing and changing.

He also doesn't have simple facts of the game right. Joel never gave up his name to Abby, that was all Tommy's doing who was always the more trustworthy brother going back to the prologue of the first game

As someone who cried twice while playing the game, even I couldn't stop laughing at how much he was overexaggerating parts of his review. He was acting like the game forced him to commit a legitimate crime
