So have we gone full circle? Do we now have people criticising people criticising video games?
i remember when my bro first wrote for gamespot he got sent their list of "don't do these tropes" only tropes wasn't as much of a popular buzzword then as it was now. it was pretty interesting
by this point they had banned words like "epic"

well unless video games criticize people criticizing people criticizing video games, then i dont think its a full circle

Jontron and nerd3 are the only reviewers i'll watch

The audience.
Where are the shitty comedy skits and dressing up like in an awkward comedy skit tropes
And don't forget the funky nicknames for your viewe- I mean PROCRASTINATORRRRRSS
I enjoy made up ratings. Ratings are a stupid way of ranking games anyway, who cares. Better than a X/10.
Was expecting a montage of examples from different reviewers and not just him explaining what the tropes is.
I'm disappointed
Halloooo smurfs, and welcome to my reply to the thread "Top 5 Video Game Reviewer Tropes". In this reply I'm just going to state what I thought about this video, and maybe throw in a few jokes along the way.
By the way I'm sorry I haven't been making so many posts lately, I know there have been a lot of people asking about it in profile messages but I've just been really busy with real life stuff. I'm trying to get a few good posts out in the next couple of weeks though but anyway, here goes!

What about never giving a game any lower than 7/10 because you don't want to burn any bridges with publishers; and because you love those sweet, sweet bribes?
(Fuck you gamespot, fuck you kotaku, fuck you IGN)

It'll be a full circle when we have videogames about people criticising people criticising videogames.

Amazing work, followed, rated, quoted, reported and replied. ;)
Keep up the good work!
i hate those 3 minutes intros im looking at you avgn dont hide
There are plenty of tropes in reviewers, but I think this video was just plenty forced. it also didn't need to be so long.
He forgot, "No, your reviews are [I]really important for the world for some reason.[/I]"

I remember watching that balrog guy who does pokemon games and that checkbox system made no fucking sense. The next video had like 3 more check box criteria and the following one after was lacking 2.

It's still really surreal seeing yungtown as a budding Youtube Egamer...thing, Knew the dude in person. pretty fly guy.

Jontron doesnt even review any relevant games.
[QUOTE=HoodedSniper;43658907]Jontron doesnt even review any relevant games.[/QUOTE]
even more of a reason to watch him.
[QUOTE=HoodedSniper;43658907]Jontron doesnt even review any relevant games.[/QUOTE]
Yeah I wouldn't call Jontron a reviewer. He's a comedy act using the framework of a review.
Honestly i don't see why this video had to be made. It's almost him criticizing game reviewers, but then it's not. He holds this really REALLY conflicted and unclear stance and i can't tell if he's point out the tropes just to point them out (hence why i say i don't really get the point of why this was made) or if he's nitpicking and pointing out the annoying things reviewers do.

I made this video for fun. I understand how I leave a lot open for interpretation, but the truth is I love content like this (video game reviews). The reason for making this is just to be a light hearted look at some of the things that internet entertainers who review games, tend to do a lot.
Some people write me off as this dude who doesn't have any respect for content creators on youtube, but that's not it at all. I'm actually pals with everyone on Hidden Block, as well as pals with Jon and Jared from Normal Boots. I have nothing but respect for people who do this for a living, and if I come off as disrespectful - that's not the heart of what I'm trying to do.
[QUOTE=_Maverick_;43654170]Jontron and nerd3 are the only reviewers i'll watch[/QUOTE]May wish to give up on Nerd³, I kinda have and a lot of people have.
He's just become such a massive and self-righteous cunt. He acts like he is perfection and the most important person in Youtube gaming. Exacerbated by the fact that he has become Steven Moffat's personal butt buddy and jerks himself off about it which just makes it worse. And he's decided to start intentionally misleading his fans about everything. And never try to criticize him, it doesn't work, he just becomes an even bigger self-righteous ass.
