Bluh, that art is shitty as hell
[QUOTE=Billy-Bobfred;49383180]Bluh, that art is shitty as hell[/QUOTE] Every.Time.
[QUOTE=Hogie bear;49383220]Every.Time.[/QUOTE] It isn't that bad, why do people cry about it everytime one of his videos are posted?
[QUOTE=SnakeHead;49383230]It isn't that bad, why do people cry about it everytime one of his videos are posted?[/QUOTE] Because it's the first thing you see when you open the thread. It's bad and it's how he chooses to represent himself, which reflects poorly.
I mean, he drew himself with a fucking neckbeard A NECKBEARD Aka the most cringy thing ever
[QUOTE=Billy-Bobfred;49383471]I mean, he drew himself with a fucking neckbeard A NECKBEARD Aka the most cringy thing ever[/QUOTE] I don't see a neckbeard. Literally just a beard with fuzz on his jawline.
[QUOTE=Billy-Bobfred;49383471]I mean, he drew himself with a fucking neckbeard A NECKBEARD Aka the most cringy thing ever[/QUOTE] I wish I could see nonexistent things.
[QUOTE=Billy-Bobfred;49383471]I mean, he drew himself with a fucking neckbeard A NECKBEARD Aka the most cringy thing ever[/QUOTE] Do you know what a neckbeard is? Its a beard. On the neck. Not the chin, not the jawline, not the mouth, its on the neck.
[QUOTE=SnakeHead;49383230]It isn't that bad, why do people cry about it everytime one of his videos are posted?[/QUOTE] If people are crying about it every time, its obviously bad
people are like EVERY TIME but whenever I mindlessly click on one of these threads (that are posted by the same guy, I'll note) I'm repulsed, too he gave himself a semi-realistic body and a bad heavily cartoony face, he looks like an abomination, flat-out. it does not make you want to watch the video. Either get someone to draw it for you or just do a simple cartoony face, problem solved.

[QUOTE=SnakeHead;49383230]It isn't that bad, why do people cry about it everytime one of his videos are posted?[/QUOTE] Because yes it is that bad
:snip: my mistake
[QUOTE=Billy-Bobfred;49383471]I mean, he drew himself with a fucking neckbeard A NECKBEARD Aka the most cringy thing ever[/QUOTE] ok
He could have paid someone $50 by now.
[QUOTE=AaronM202;49384126]Do you know what a neckbeard is? Its a beard. On the neck. Not the chin, not the jawline, not the mouth, its on the neck.[/QUOTE] Yeah, instead of a beard he has the Microsoft Paint airbrush tool on his neck.

Well, in terms of the actual video, it was a fun little extra by him, I think. Intro was golden, too.
[QUOTE=Billy-Bobfred;49383471]I mean, he drew himself with a fucking neckbeard A NECKBEARD Aka the most cringy thing ever[/QUOTE] You're funny.
[QUOTE=Dr. Kyuros;49389569]Good idea to post the same guy's videos even though said guy has been viewed here as just another below-average internet reviewer and thus getting everyone to complain.[/QUOTE] The only thing people here complain about with his videos is the art (which honestly, I don't find [B]THAT [/B] bad. Ok, it's not great, but I don't find it that terrible, as I have seen MUCH worse things on the internet, so I give it 5/10 overall. Not great, but not terrible either), everything else about his videos people here do seem to actually really enjoy. And besides, the only reason why I keep posting Johnny's reviews here is because, well there are people here who do seem to enjoy the guy's stuff (myself included), and hell, most of the time whenever me or someone else post one of Johnny's reviews, they're either met with positive reactions, or an overwhelmingly overall reaction of "...ehh". If you don't like the guy's videos, that's fine. But to say that [B][I]everyone[/I][/B] thinks of Johnny as another bellow-average internet reviewer anytime any of his videos are posted here, now that's just straight-up bullshit.
I do enjoy Johnny's videos, title card art be damned, but as something to unwind to - if that makes sense. He doesn't really present anything new, he doesn't have a unqiue take besides his own enjoyment of the material, he doesn't say anything controversial or challenge anyone's existing opinions. But on the other hand he's not obnoxious or hyperactive - or dull or unclear either, comes across as comfortable in front of a camera, he does show interest in what he's doing, he is informative to the point that if you're not familiar with the game in question you'll leave with a good understanding of the material afterwards, whatever his opinion of the game is. When I just want to hear some agreeable discussion while relaxing, his material fills that niche. Most of the time I do want to hear contrasting views, I do want my preconceptions challenged - but when I just want to relax in an echo chamber as it were, Johnny's videos fit the bill.
You guys are some of the most uppity, nitpicky people I've ever seen. Jesus christ just watch the video and stop bitching about something so irrelevant Look, I don't like the DeviantArt styled caricature either but fuck

The reason people jump to conclusions is because it uses the same art-style a certain demographic of reviewers use. People complaining about it is actually a valid point in some sense, it might not detract from the videos content, but the overuse of this look almost makes it carry the same mental signal as clickbait. I haven't watched the video, and i'm really neutral about this. But that's my two cents.
holy shit you ought to iron the knots out of your panties boys, quit bitching about the art cause it's got nothin' to do with the video itself. Johnny's got some quality content and if that's the drawing he likes to use so be it
fun fact about this game: It's made by the guy who made the original Jaykin' Bacon Source [url]http://www.superfundungeonrun.com/?page_id=469[/url]
