I hate his masks so much that the cringe is never worth sitting through for the good bits. Such a shame he uses his platform (which is good at what it focuses on) to showcase childish bullshit you probably have to be into yourself to enjoy. Like fuck Pogs too, come on. They're cardboard circles with pictures on them.
*grumbles* not a bad list, anyway.
For people who haven't watched it, skip to 1:30. You're missing nothing.

His entire persona is just cringe. I'd have a far easier time watching him if he scrapped the stupid 'regular' costume.

Literally 95% of skit's I've seen with the majority of internet personalities are garbage. I can count good skits on one hand, maybe two.
My Australian internet means I can't watch this at the present time, and probably not for a long while. Is it any good? Also, what's the list?
this guy is such a clown i honestly don't know why he's still relevant
like who even watches him regularly
his entire persona is just embarrassing and painful to sit through, his gags aren't funny and make no sense and his overuse of swearing and mannerisms is just ugh what are you doing
i just take one look at the guy and i cringe.
Is he a good guy?
fuck, every time I watch one of these videos it makes me remember why i love matthewmatosis so much

for anyone who hasn't watched matthew, here's an [I]hour and twenty minute[/I] review and critique of MGS4. I fucking adore videos like this because they go into so much detail, and he doesn't spend time doing unfunny fucking skits
i hate the fact that I have to skip a sizable portion of jimquisitions videos because i don't want to watch a full grown man essentially be a clown
yeah the cringes are very skit but he says interesting and good things about games

He did that amazing video critique on Dark Souls 2 right?

yes he did

All I can count is RLM. And Rolfe when he does Board James.
I was going to say just mute the video until he starts talking but holy fuck his skits are all over the video
[QUOTE=Zeos;49412612]He did that amazing video critique on Dark Souls 2 right?[/QUOTE]
He did a full 6 and a half hour long commentary critique of Dark Souls with insightful and researched information provided the whole way through.
He is the king of video game critique as far as I am concerned.
I was talking about MathewMatosis, not Jim Sterling.
Both the "persona" and the actual man are total cringe. [URL="https://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1475810&p=49356838&viewfull=1#post49356838"]Doesn't help that he's also an assbag[/URL].

Not putting my two cents in either side by the way, only saying that Jim isn't the pretty face most of you think he is.

You give a quote from a random 8chaner, then source out a site that has nothing about that.
Sorry, I don't believe everything I see in gamergate, I also saw Derick Smart saying shit and people believing him, even thought he's been proven again and again to just cause shit.
Jim sterling is great but he needs to cut the bullshit
He usually has decent opinions but I can't stand his persona and costumes. The only videos I managed to semi-sit through are ones with a lot of in-game/event footage.
I like Jim, and I don't usually mind skits (like Angry Joe's stuff is fine by me) but even I think he's been getting worse and worse with his persona. It's getting annoying.
I can forgive his persona but I hate he won't admint he was wrong ( kinda wrong ) wrong about Dead Alive 3ish whatever
His skits have been getting consistently less funny as the year went on. While I'm glad he can finally do what he wants now that he's Patreon-supported, I think he's been consistently making less and less content that are relevant to his supporters desires.
While he has this huge mask/poly-amorous fetish, I think he should really distance his own personality from work, or at least use a persona that is at least presentable officially. The more he goes on and the less I like to share his reviews/opinion because of the really dodgy/weird stuff he puts out on the same channel he uploads interesting opinions on.
Same for Angry Joe with his skits that fail to be funny (Although that's my own opinion, what you find funny is different to what I find funny). At least when they're only at the start of the review, they don't hinder too much, but now they're all over the review, which makes them less and less serious and more of a joke.

We're in desperate need of more true game "analysts" like this guy
Well after watching this for a first, Jim Sterling is the type of person I wouldn't invite for lunch.
Jim Sterling used to be pretty cool, if a bit crude. Then he realized that he just makes way more money being a game critic that appeals to the middle school demographic.
[QUOTE=Hat-Wearing Man;49413467]We're in desperate need of more true game "analysts" like this guy[/QUOTE]
Can name a couple off the top of my head:
MrBTongue (< top notch shit)
Super Bunny Hop
Errant Signal
Noah Caldwell-Jervais
Satchbag (somewhat)
Al Russell
There's also Action Points and Extra Credits but they tend to add very little to the conversation.
[QUOTE=person11;49412405]yeah the cringes are very skit but he says interesting and good things about games[/QUOTE]
Ah yes, awarding Taken with "The Everything Foreskinning Wrong With Steam Award." Very interesting commentary.
He may be able to construct good commentary, but he constantly sabotages himself by putting these made up/infantile swears all over the place. Plus, every video I see from him is just making fun of obviously bad games. That's easy to do, he's hitting low hanging fruit so often its gotten boring.
[QUOTE=Noss;49411865]His entire persona is just cringe. I'd have a far easier time watching him if he scrapped the stupid 'regular' costume.[/QUOTE]
This. So much this. His information may be decent, but HE is just a massive cringe-fest. I can't stand watching anything by him. He constantly strikes me as just a massively overweight basement dwelling middle aged man desperately trying to be ~cool~ and ~relevant~. I'm pretty sure he isn't even that kind of a person, but it's the overwhelming persona that he puts off in my opinion.
I like Zero Punctuation.
