@sil3n7: I agree with Austin, personally. The game marketed itself in one specific way and did not deliver on that at all. I believe that should factor into the review.
The story is poor, the narrative is poor, the dialogue is poor - those all work into the same criticism.
I've been playing some Rocksmith recently. Anyone think that could work for a future TITR? Get Vinny to teach Dan enough to get him to 100% Freebird or something?
I could see it working pretty okay as a feature.
Nope, I put my family through me learning "Come As You Are" for weeks and weeks when I was 10 and they still don't let me live it down. Hearing/watching someone learn an instrument is _frustrating_
I never complain about this stuff but jesus Alex is so indecisive. It's just a game! Dan and Abby just go for it, much better viewing to be honest. Sorry Alex.
I loved this, purely because I knew it would piss off so many people. The comments are absolutely hilarious. I can't tell whether you all care this much or you're just mucking around.
I actually completely understand Dan's issues with driving - I can drive by myself and it's fine, but if someone else is in the car, my anxiety kicks into overdrive. Took me a long time to get to a place where I'm kind of OK with it.
DuoLingo is a really poor app to be using to learn Japanese. Unless they've updated it recently or something.
Use WaniKani for Radicals/Kanji/Vocab, Bunpro for Grammar and never look back. They both use Spaced Repetition for learning and it's the best way to drill that language into your skull.
When you take a joke seriously and offer useful advice.
Hey guys just wanted to comment on this internet video and totally flip the fuck out about everything, hope that's cool and socially accepted. Oh it is? SWEEEEEEEEEEEEET
Yep. My thoughts exactly.
Yes, something may offend your sensibilities, but we don't need a page long rant about it. Ask yourself this; what are you achieving, what are you actually defending?
Re: Dan laughing at 'Dong Song' - that is an objectively funny name to an English speaker. Shit, it's even funny to my Taiwanese wife.
Just like when I went to Taiwan and several people laughed at my funny (to them) sounding English name. Celebrate our differences.
Sure, if Dan said it in a malicious way or put on a stereotypical Chinese accent, by all means - speak up. But c'mon guys. Pick your battles here.
I'm not going to go down the 'PC Police' route (political correctness is not a real thing) but I'm really getting sick of every video being railroaded by people who have taken it upon themselves to speak for an entirely different culture that they likely have nothing to do with.
