It's funny how whenever someone says something like that you get a bunch of replies like these.
It's almost like it's some sort of organized effort.
[QUOTE=Dr.Critic;41854031]I reckon the main reason FP detests this guy (the game theory guy) is just his weird voice and not actually the quality of his content.[/QUOTE]
i dunno his content is pretty shitty
Didn't Pewdiepie used to put quite a bit of effort into his videos, and then when he started getting subscribers by the bucketload he just gave up and said "Well, may as well turn this into a cash cow"? That's a bit... greedy, maybe, but I think a lot of people placed in that position would do the same thing, unfortunately. He's most likely just Flanderised himself to make his character more 'interesting'.
[QUOTE=LaTrefle;41850853]I dont know about you guys but i like watching pewdiepie. He's fun to watch. Do yourselves a favor and open a new video of him. See if its THAT bad. It isnt.[/QUOTE]

I love this post, because it is so fucking ironic.

You're full of it if you think this forum doesn't have a lot of kneejerk same-ey opinions.
Yeah "Facepunch is not a hivemind" is just another opinion from the hivemind.

Saying FP isn't a hivemind is like saying the sky isn't blue; at least every other thread has around three people posting nothing but stuff people already said and were rated agree for, contributing absolutely nothing new to the thread at all.
Like me right now.

facepunch isn't a hivemind, it's a community with people who have similar interests. do you even know what a hivemind is?

I agree, now we are a hivemind.
Hivemind
I don't think he is particularly funny but that doesn't make him a bad person.
As a comedian/LPer, I dislike him. As a person, he seems pretty cool to be honest.
I wouldn't mind hanging out with him if he kept the screeching to a minimum.
It's just a stage-act; He is a pretty nice guy in person and keeps his screaming and swearing to a minimum when off camera.
He acts that way due to his subscribers liking the act and if I was in his position, I wouldn't change it completely either as it does bring in the money for him. I would probably change some stuff though if I was him as it could help him in the long run.
Anyways, I do think what he is doing is awesome of him and he should take advantage of his subscribers for donations as he doesn't get a cut of it, even for the humble bundle charity; it goes towards the charity that he has chosen or has been running. He also donated a 10 thousand dollars just recently to that water charity and probably more since then and has donated to other charities in the past.
He's a horrible LPer but a good person. If you want good indie-game let's plays, then you're better off watching Markiplier.
aight, I have seen Pew's videos, so I have no opinion on them. And he did pick pretty good games for a Humble bundle, so that's points towards him as a person (though I'd have to meet him to be definitive on such things).
His fanbase however, is annoying as shit. Imagine the stereotypes against bronies, except for the horse fucker one because that doesn't make sense in this context. Now multiply the horror level by about seven. Boom, Pewdiepie's fanbase.
I hate the fuckers.
His picks are good and the fact it's for charity is neat and all, but I still detest him for being a thoroughly vulgar, unapproachable, and risible individual. His propensity for screaming "I RAPED YOUR MOM LOL!" at enemies in his videos is pretty fucking stupid.
He also massively damaged the Cry of Fear community by offering to judge a contest and saying that his ad team would pay the winner, and then, when the time came, he refused to respond to calls and contact requests made by RuMpel, a member of Cry of Fear's dev team, so they had to judge it themselves.
I'm willing to bet Felix is a pretty nice guy, despite being rather goofy. I'm sure he can be serious sometimes.
[QUOTE=Whiplash~;41852163]He's just being real. We need more people like him.[/QUOTE]
I think he has a superiority complex.

His videos are literally constant rape jokes, yelling, calling random things random names, doing "lol so randumb" humor nonstop, and useless yelling at non scary stuff.
That and the fact he's so money hungry he cuts his videos at the 10 minute mark to make as much of them as possible which is pissing me off so much. Game Grumps is also guilty of that.

When he first started doing LPs he was actually going for a serious approach, he even clearly stated he wasn't going to do goofy shit to sell out more. Then he finished his original amnesia playthrough (which had no facecam), and started doing facecam stuff and went into goofy shit because it gave him more money.

I think that's also due to attention span. Longer videos seem to garner less views.
[QUOTE=lavacano;41866816]I think that's also due to attention span. Longer videos seem to garner less views.[/QUOTE]
Two best friends make 30 minutes long LP videos that get around 50k views within the first day. Game Grumps make 10 minutes long LP videos that get around 80k views within the first day. If you forget the fact Game Grumps has a helluva lot more subscribers, it's not that big of a change.
So no, making videos shorter for the sake of attention span is not a good excuse, especially when you make money based on the number of videos you shit out.

Oldest SH response in the book.
Why is it that this half-assed argument always pops up. Most people on FP [I]do[/I], like it or not, share the same opinions, mostly because those who do not aren't very accepted here. It filters out many opinions leaving a tiny pool. And ignoring that your point is just shit in general, Facepunch does in fact have similar opinions and ideals, making it a poor point factually.

What you are suggesting is absurd. It's not like this is a homogeneous group - otherwise there wouldn't be continuous debate. Members on this forum differ on most of the major issues I know, and it comes up in every single Sensationalist Headlines thread. I would say that a majority of the users who frequently post on SH probably share marginally close (in terms of ends of the spectrum) political views, but it would be a stretch of any logic to argue that they are identical or anything that could be identified as a single group or entity.
It's a bad justification for an unfounded belief, and there isn't a lot that you can do to justify what you are saying.
We certainly aren't a hive mind, otherwise there would be no cause for 90 page threads over matters of semantics completely unrelated to the article in the OP.
I...I actually liked pewdiepie, pre-1 million subscribers. If you see his older videos he is obviously a lot more tame and there's virtually no rape jokes. Present day though, I want to rip out pewdiepie's trachea, the personality I mean. I know its just an act played by Felix, (his name is Felix) and I would do it too and so would most facepunchers if it meant being the #1 subscribed channel on youtube and being able to donate to any charity. He has a good heart and is covered in money and puts it to goodwill and I kind of respect him for that. Kind of. Because rape jokes aren't cool, man.

Yeah, same. He used to actually be kind of funny because it wasn't as overblown as now. As it went it just got louder and shittier.
