PewDiePie arguing

I feel like I'm the only person that didn't have an aneurysm watching this... I mean sure, he's being a stupid jackass, but that's all it is, some guy being a stupid jackass while playing Amnesia. Meh, maybe it's just cause I have to deal with people like that on a regular basis, but that kind of stuff doesn't get to me too much.

do the responsible thing and flag as "promotes terrorism"

It's moreso the fact that this guy gets tons of positive responses that grinds my gears.

During my time watching several lets plays, watching content, creating content, and for a brief time (2/3 months) creating Amnesia custom story map LPs, I have come to know some stands for creating LP's and content. It also helps greatly that I work with a network of directors that encourage both creativity and respect for the games we are either making Machinimas or gameplay videos of. While I am not a fan of PewDiePie, I can understand what makes him entertaining. He is our Shaggy from Scooby Doo. He entertains people and is a complete scaredy cat (and to an extent he has the hair). While his type of videos aren't for me, I can understand his popularity. Jesse Cox and PewDiePie during their time on the normal game of Amnesia knew what mood to be in. Dark room, headphones, and invest themselves into the story and atmosphere, they even respect the content even if they do break the atmosphere at times with comedic effect. This guy however, neither invests himself into the game, nor respects what was created for the masses, and it is easy to tell by his play style, his tone and mood of his voice, and how much he doesn't care about the game (heck, having the lights on just proves it).

I was thinking on getting back into custom stories or such so I can prepare for A Machine For Pigs since this game contributed to my minor success, but I am extremely reluctant now that I have watched this. A video can get away with a lot of things, but this was just painful to watch for me.

Why do you guys flag it? ^^ I think he is a good example of denial and defense mechanisms. He's just like Daniel! Big Grin

Weeeell, you learn things every day.

YOU should stop comment about other people opinions!
He is playing Amnesia the same way like you playing Risen 2.
So you should look first at your own manner to play, instead of criticize other people who are playing wrong.

I find PewDiePie not that bad, he has lots of fans. Ergo, more people will play Amnesia and get to experience awesome itself.

It IS annoying that the arabic statue is now known as Stephano and that every knight statue is untrusted etc.

Also, all those custom stories with naked guys flying in your face with the ironmaiden sound. Are annoying as hell!

And this guy... THIS guy.. Does everything the opposite of how you're supposed to play this game.. you're supposed to immerse yourself, not laugh all the time..

Wtf Googol? Anyway.. as I said before, this isn't a thread to discuss PDP's playing, I only made the connection because a lot of people seem to dislike his LPs and seem to think he is doing something wrong. I wasn't meaning to be negative about him but I guess it came out that way, so it's probably my fault.
