Zero Punctuation isn't your favorite weekly video? Prepare for your demise!ZeroMachine said:
OT: Why do you say ZP and EC but mention 'Unskippables guy' in your opening post? Are they the same person? Personally, I would love to see Yahtzee doing an Unskippable, it'd be fun watching and hearing him mock a game.. oh wait, we hear that weekly already anyway
. But no, not EC, I suspect I wouldn't like it.Didn't see this. Yippee!2xDouble said:
I'll start with your off topic point- he already did a crossover with Unskippables. That's what he was referring to.Devias- said:Zero Punctuation isn't your favorite weekly video? Prepare for your demise!ZeroMachine said:

Now, for your first point: I fucking hate Zero Punctuation.

The picture was meant to be in good humor. I hate Zero Punctuation myself, but it's far from my right to tell you or anyone else to stop enjoying it. It's just a retaliatory joke to your "Prepare for your demise!" comment. Don't worryDevias- said:Ah, that was harsh.

Do you ever read his "extra punctuation" where he's a bit more serious and talks about the issues of gaming in general. Its actually remarkable similar to extra credits and he's been doing for a long time before they were around here.ZeroMachine said:
Don't worry, I know, lol. All is in good humor on the Escapist. Unless you reply to one of those 'Marty McFlys' whenever a video has been released.ZeroMachine said:The picture was meant to be in good humor.

I've read a couple, and like a couple of his points, but I gave up on it completely a while back after he (I can only assume) wrote it after a day of major drinking. He mentions in his article about video games some bullshit about love being some arbitrary and fake emotion.gyro2death said:
Basically, my view of him was forever tainted and now I see him as a pathetic man that can't get past a heartbreak.

Would be hilarious, if only to hear Yahtzee restrain from swearing more than once or twice in the video, and hearing the EC crew get their rant on XD
Eh, the Extra Credits guys, their kind of gimmick is way different and, well, a lot more professional because, well, Yahtzee's games weren't exactly top notch, he himself admitted it on Something Awful anyway. Still, those guys sometimes take shit a bit too far, a bit too seriously and get carried away, you know, the COME ON MAN kind of thing. But for the most part, it's good insight while Yahtzee is a bit predictable.
That being said, yeah why not switch for a gimmick

I'm going to have to disagree on the latter. Yahtzee isn't quite that scathing simply by nature. It's the style he effects for his videos. While he's still rather brutal in his Extra Punctuation reviews, it's a much different kind of scathing, and I certainly think he could manage a thoughtful chill review that would fit Extra Credits.BreakfastMan said:
I would definitely be more interested to see how the nice guys at Extra Credits would do making a belligerent and vulgar review to fit Zero Punctuation, though.
