dunkey's an idiot who continues to play a genre he hates only so he can mock it for views

vocal dunkey fans are insufferable and stir shit up every single time he releases a video on a game. most recently, he not-so-subtly encouraged a metacritic review bomb on sonic frontiers

Dunkey makes a joke about almost every game because he is a comedian.

The dunkey fanboys are annoying, but the anti-dunkey fanboys are starting to get pretty annoying, too.

I watch Dunkey's and Yatzee's videos because they are funny and relatively entertaining.
But holy hell do I absolutely disagree w/ their tastes in games.
Dunkey especially does seem like he intentionally goes after JRPGs more harshly than other genres, just to be a troll, and it is pretty annoying sometimes.

Don't know much about his fan base, I just casually watch his videos sometimes, and any time I scroll through the comments they're like 90% vanilla boring memes, like tweaks on "Morbin all over the place", "this is one of the games of all time", references to Gex, etc...

So long as there are awards that Xenoblade (at least 1 and 3, 2 and X are... complicated) has not won, Xenoblade cannot be overrated.

Dunkey also thought FFXV was a great game, his opinions are trash.

Yahtzee's runniing joke is he will nitpick every game he plays, even games he thinks are outstanding he will still nitpick and make a few jokes about the game.

His reviews are also never fully comprehensive he will talk about the game in general but not give a typical review. So again he is a joke reviewer it would be like claiming AVGN is a video game reviewer when he also rips on games for laughs. Yes, at the end of a review Yahtzee usually gives some general statement about if he liked the game or not but that is not the main point of the review.

I think Yahtzee tries to be a little more insightful though, watching his vids where he talks about the industry/game design give me the impression he's in touch with everything happening in the industry even if he comes off as a total ass in his main reveiws.

yahtzee's absolutely fair even if he's overtly negative, dunkey feels like he's just out to rile people up and stir drama

he and his fans bring out the worst in other fanbases and it sucks to watch

Great game and series. I think xenoblade outshines both in terms of amount of content.

I've bought two games in the series and felt like I wasted my money both times.

Never again.

Yes, a series is clearly bad because some guy who doesn't like its genre in the first place made a couple videos where he took one or two small issues and spent 10 minutes nitpicking them.

Certainly I had more flat-out fun playing Xenoblade games. Heck, I'm still finding little nooks and crannies in Xenoblade X to this day. Probably my favorite video game environment ever.

Where Xenoblade games tend to falter when compared to previous Xeno games is in the story, and even then, I think the distance between them in terms of quality is not as great as people would like to admit. I was not impressed with Xenosaga's narrative, anyway, and it def seems about on par with the the Xenoblade games to me in that respect.

I still need to go back and replay Xenosaga (beat 1, disc too scratched to beat 2), but Xenogears bored me (and I apparently got far enough to where the quality drops off). Each Xenoblade story has been gripping both gameplaywise and storywise on their own. Maybe saga has a better payoff, but you cannot tell me saga 1 compares favorably to any blade game.

I get why people can dislike blade games for being overly heavy on the themes, but I loved theme-heavy plots.

And it's not like Gears or Saga were any less theme-heavy. Takahashi loves his allegories.
