i actually love Jeff's disdain for most things and welcome it. Even if I,dont agree with him, I still find it funny. Like his hate for Red Dead and Last of Us. (examples of the crew not all collectively agreeing for the sake of agreeing.) Both games that i love deeply, and yet his unwavering hate for them makes me chuckle. He is dead set on his opinions and knows what he likes. I never got the impression that the crew all rallies behind one opinion. The podcasts, especialy the game of the year deliberations, wouldn't be so damn interesting if that were the case. The whole "Fuck Yoshi" thing was a perfect example. Jeff is a well known Yosji hater, and plays it up to piss off Patrick. No one agreed with him. Actually I thought the reaction of the crew during Nintendo's event was positively, surprisingly so from Jeff who seemed to have written them off at this point.
Their commentary only ever bothered me a couple of times, when i couldnt hear what was going on, but it wasnt because of what they were saying and I chose to watch that stream because i like them. They do have a seperate stream for those who want the pure experience. Perhaps next time you could use that one if it bothers you so much?
