[video=youtube;EnOmfGMM_yg]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EnOmfGMM_yg[/video] I, uh... I give up.
When will he stop?
Uh, who cares?
Is this guy fucking kidding me right now?
unnecessary overthinking: the youtube show
You guys know he's talking about the character right? And that this is satire?
[QUOTE=IceWarrior98;43182359]You guys know he's talking about the character right? And that this is satire?[/QUOTE] I don't think that it's satire. But in all honesty this is a load of a bullshit and isn't even a theory.
[QUOTE=IceWarrior98;43182359]You guys know he's talking about the character right? And that this is satire?[/QUOTE] I'd much rather he went back to what he used to do and said things that are INTERESTING and FACTUALLY RIGHT and not [I]~controversial~[/I] stuff made for views and easy ad revenue.
While watching I went from "Is... he seriously analyzing this?" to "Heh, the shit thing was funneh" to "Wait... is he actually serious? I thought this was a joke video" etc etc I can't tell if he's just analyzing something that doesn't need to be studies, or just making an april fools video in december.
I've always thought that the Game Theory guy was a piece of crap, and this pretty much confirms it. Ever since I watched his "Sonic doesn't move at the speed of sound" video his videos have gotten more and more far-fetched and his logic more and more terrible.

It's obvious he doesn't move that fast in the games, but to know his actual speed is still pretty cool.
[QUOTE=IceWarrior98;43182537]But the speed of sound one was interesting to me.

The "logic" behind classic Sonic's speed is "I'm gonna copy paste sprites and completely ignore slopes and jumps!!1!" And the "logic" behind modern Sonic's speed is "Hey, there's a buiding that looks like one I know, it must be the same!!"
Game Theory is dumb as shit

[QUOTE=IceWarrior98;43182567]Then by all means do better.[/QUOTE] Oh, man, this is the funniest shit I read today.
Haha I'm glad to have provided you with entertainment :D Now back to doing absolutely nothing with my life.
[QUOTE=IceWarrior98;43182359]You guys know he's talking about the character right? And that this is satire?[/QUOTE] I would love to think that, but it comes off as way too serious and his audience takes it seriously. Some of my friends watch this shit and they often tell me "facts" about characters that they learned from game theory, like Pyro being "confirmed female" and Mario's mental disabilities (which I could not believe was an actual thing he came up with but apparently it is!).
The only good gametheory video was the one on PDP, because it had nothing to do with games.
"By only this russian kid" "Angry German Kid' This channel seriously is the most retarded shit "But this russian kid" "Angry German Kid" HOW COULD HE FUCK UP THE SAME ERROR
I'm not even going to bother giving this guy a view, he doesn't deserve it.
This guy just can't be serious, he's seriously the most ANNOYING guy I even seen. he just overthinks ANYTHING

[QUOTE=Brt5470;43182628]The only good gametheory video was the one on PDP, because it had nothing to do with games.[/QUOTE] It was based on fact. And I agree that was the only one that was good.
I know this is satire but. How does he even have the guts to talk shit about such an amazing writer/actor. Just who the fuck does he think he is.
[QUOTE=Scizor;43182784]I know this is satire but. How does he even have the guts to talk shit about such an amazing writer/actor. Just who the fuck does he think he is.[/QUOTE] He spends like a full minute of the video talking about how AVGN pioneered online gaming videos, did you watch it?
Uh what the fuck is with you guys hating this video? He's...examining the character itself, not James Rolfe, he even fucking says that. Keep the bandwagon going, you stupid sheep. [editline]14th December 2013[/editline] [QUOTE=Primigenes;43182861]He dick rides him more than anything. The problem here is that its lame and he's going to extreme lengths to make a joke about fictional characters. Trying too hard[/QUOTE] Trying too hard? This is the fucking point of his videos, he overanalyzes things in games for FUN, if you don't like it then fuck off, quit being such an annoying gnat.

[QUOTE=SenhorCreeper;43182645]"By only this russian kid" "Angry German Kid' This channel seriously is the most retarded shit "But this russian kid" "Angry German Kid" HOW COULD HE FUCK UP THE SAME ERROR[/QUOTE] i think that was a joke
makes me fell like I could do a better job, which is not the intent. With Vsauce I sometimes know a hook that wasn't mentioned and in my opinion might be mentioned, but it doesn't make me feel like I should do my own version of his clips which he dose fantastically. What I'm trying to say is that I put game theory on the polar opposite to Vsauce (1-3) in a scale that sways between what gives me reason to be creative.
This video games "Game Theory" as a study look bad.

Should be clear to anybody who watched the video. Not very good though.
