This is so fucking funny it deserves it's own thread.

Alan Wake wrote it into existence.

And so it is so.

 

[Crispy Gamer]

That Alan Wake bid was hilarious

 

[fallingdove]

Does it though?

Yes Starfield, erm, Adamsapple.

 

[bitbydeath]

I didn’t know Keef was a gaffer!

 

[Topher]

[SlimeGooGoo]

 

[XXL]

Does it though?

Yes. Just look at NeoGAF like the IRS.

 

[Ribi]

Yet no one is talking about Atomic Heart being robbed of art direction. Where are my streamer reactions for that robbery!

 

[Slothbeing1209]

I was dying at the Alan Wake part lol

 

[Grildon Tundy]

Lol I thought he took audio directly from Alan Wake 2, but then he started talking about Starfield. He does a good Alan impression.

 

[hinch7]

Xbox tax lol. Wonder who made up that saying in their Discord.. Seen it used in a few places.

 

[Chechack]

Does it though?

It must have happened in one of the Emergency Discord All-Hands!

A lot of valid points, especially the one about Metacritic Publisher of the year vs theories about media bias. It takes a certain type of person to hold together conflicting ideas like those without going "hey, this doesn't make sense at all".

As usual i can't stand this dude's videos for more than 2 min.

The Alan Wake 2 bit is the only funny part.

 

[Bumblebeetuna]

The Alan Wake part was kind of funny. There is potential in the rest but the writing is not there. Never seen his videos, are they all like this? Is he the 76ers Doc Rivers guy? I think that’s someone else.

Can someone explain “Xbox tax” to me? Never heard the phrase until the discord crew started mocking Starfield/TGA recently.

Some Xbox diehards firmly believe that Xbox games lose points in reviews purely because they are Xbox games.

Should have stuck with just the AW bit.

it was trending on Twitter and it wasn’t from people making fun of it but…

Rand is seriously pushing it and the comments are full of Xbox fans who believe this BS, it’s like Griffin Gaming pointed out the disconnect from these same people who wouldn’t shut up about “Metacritic Publisher of the Year 2022” is mind-bogglingly dumb

Just typical console war nonsense that exists everywhere and always has. Got it.

Hell we have people here who claim there is an “Xbox Tax” on reviews that slant scores the opposite way. There’s just been numerous videos posted here recently talking about “Xbox tax” so I didn’t know where it was coming from. Thanks.

 

[Heimdall_Xtreme]

If they had put TOTK as best DLC, it would have won another award.

 

[rofif]

Does it though?

It deserves the thread more than starfield deserves a nomination.

 

[Heisenberg007]

It deserves the thread more than starfield deserves a nomination.

 

[struggler_guts]

Boy these videos of one dude just talking to himself have always made me feel sad for them, ever since the trend started with vines...

 

[adamsapple]

[rofif]

That's the first time even someone posted that who is not me.
Good job

I did an honest attempt to get the humor, but failed. I don't even know who that guy is.

Who the fuck even listens to these idiots?
I listened for 2 minutes I heard "Final Fantasy XVI is NOT AN RPG" and it was all I needed to hear to know it wasn't worth wasting my time with it.

We have several badly scores nintendo and PlayStation games throughout the generations. The Xbox tax seems like a tool to me to dismiss any kind of critism which is insane.

On the contrary, Xbox games often get higher scores just for trying.

There is no world where Starfield scores an 83, the same score as Ghost of Tsushima on PS4. Or where Halo Infinite scores 87, a point higher than the absolute masterpiece that is Returnal.

Wasn't Xbox also metacritic publisher of the year two years ago. Such a selective memory

Video made me cringe but the Alan Wake part was actually funny
