Stupid Youtube Comments (5/7/2012)

You guys, this just keeps going. I don’t even want to be mean to the guy, but I feel like this needs to be archived for posterity.

The people who say this game is great are just in denial because they know the game is bad but they can’t accept they wasted money on this piece of shit so they call it a good game. | MarshiMYG64 1 week ago

Or they aren’t as shallow amd self-righteous as Sonic retro fsns. Long loading times amd all of 2 glitches that you might actually run into just normally playing through thebgame. Like anybody’s gonna fly a glider through the ground or stand on a box and kick expecting to rise through the air (which is cool) unless you WANT to find a reason to bitch. | radicalcrash in reply to MarshiMYG64 1 week ago

I have a playthrough up of it and I’m a lot better at it since then. The controls are so tight, you can do three circles in the air with one jump. The plot is brilliant. A few rings are placed in bad places, such as in Crisis City. But, in a billion playthroughs of the game, I’ve yet to encounter even a third of the problems most people say. | radicalcrash 1 week ago

The plot was brilliant? I’m not even sure what I could possibly say in response to that… I had no idea an opinion could be wrong until I read that. | ColBarnaby in reply to radicalcrash 1 week ago

@radicalcrash This video was originally released in 08. However, the poster re made it with adding in annotations and I believe a changed intro. | noname76761 1 week ago

@noname76761 Did the world really need another video blowing “some” of Sonic 06’s perceived flaws out of proportion? Especially in such a holier-than-thou manner? No. I reiterate: the video was done to make an unnecessary statement about a commonly-held opinion, with the perk (for him) of getting a lot of virtual pats on the back for having “such good tastes.” | radicalcrash 1 week ago

@radicalcrash What the hell are you even talking about? I simply pointed out that this video was made less than 2 years over the game came out, not four. Stop making everything such a huge deal. He simply made a video to show glitches in this game for to entertain. You’re making it sound like he and everyone who disagrees with you is the devil. Choose your words better, or you’ll start sounding like the “holier-than-thou” one here. | noname76761 1 week ago

It doesn’t matter when the video was uploaded. It’s still a pretentious statement about Sonic 06. Understandable though it is that the game isn’t everyone’s cup of tea, if the video was just meant for entertainment, it wouldn’t have such an in-your-face title. It wouldn’t have such snarky messages bookending it. My apologies for coming off so holier-than-thou, but this is intensely frustrating to me. | radicalcrash in reply to noname76761 1 week ago

Embrace the full brunt of madness after the jump.

@BlazeHedgehog stop saying a certain fraction of sonic the hedgehog video games suck balls D:! | froakentoken3 1 week ago

But they do! It’s really terrible to think that there are people out there who are forcing themselves to like bad games just because they think that’s what fans do. Fans want a franchise to grow and improve! Not to scrape the bottom of the barrel and embarrass everybody involved. | BlazeHedgehog in reply to froakentoken3 1 week ago

It’s not for you to say the games are bad as if it’s undeniable truth or to deem the people wh like them as wrong or embarrassing. Sonic Adventure-Black Knight have their flaws, but the people who like them are just as entitled to their opinion and equal respect as you are (as long as they don’t act like freaks about it). And if you really think so highly of yourself or your opinion so as to seriously think you get to look down on people that way, it’s a big problem. | radicalcrash in reply to BlazeHedgehog 1 week ago

At this point, I think radicalcrash noticed my Tumblr post from Wednesday, because he left me this comment:

@BlazeHedgehog …Oh, wow.. Grow up. Seriously. | radicalcrash 1 day ago

@radicalcrash Yes! Blaze should grow up and stop making such logical arguments! That’s completely unreasonable! How dare he state his opinion! You should be the only one allowed to state yours! | noname76761 1 day ago

That’s not logic. It’s self-righteous, petty, and deluded. So, he’s not into a glitchy video game about a dramatic cast of cartoon characters. That’s understandable, and it’s not the first time it’s happened. But to not even give credit where it’s due or even try to understand the position SEGA and Sonic Team were in with this game is as pathetic as it gets. Gamers are NOT entitled to get everything they want all the time, and or I’d be entitled to Sonic Adventure 3, not Sonic Care Bears. | radicalcrash in reply to noname76761 1 day ago

Sorry, dude. It’s worth mentioning that I don’t actually intend harm with any of these posts; and I seriously hope this isn’t causing these people any added trouble. It’s just more of a “Wow, would you look at THAT guy?” sort of thing.

@radicalcrash You cannot claim that no one else has had these problems. Watch the pokecapn LP. Watch Blaze’s live stream. I had some of the problems and others. And yes, they didn’t have 15 years of experience with the PS3/XBOX. But neither did Insomniac, and Ratchet and Clank: Tools of Destruction came out wonderful. Ubisoft didn’t either, Assasin’s Creed was great. What’s so different between these companies and SEGA? | noname76761 1 day ago

@noname76761 Pokecapn is deliberately sucking at it. I’ve never seen Blaze’s and don’t intend to. If he spent this much time on a video that required him to learn that standing on a box and kicking raises it into the air, he’s probably deliberately sucking at it too. If, indeed, he sucks at all. Don’t know about R&C, and AC is great. But SEGA are expected to deliver every year, and they had some obvious problems with the making of. | radicalcrash 1 day ago

Are you for real? He was deliberately sucking at it, really? Dude, I hate to break it to you, but you’re a text book case of denial. Consider this: Pokecapn didn’t “deliberately suck” at Sonic Unleashed, or Generations, or the Sonic LPs he did before 06 (SA2B, etc.), either. The dude is not out to sabotage the Sonic franchise - it was business as usual for him and he happened upon terrible, awful, horrible comedy gold. You’re just seeing what you want to see. | BlazeHedgehog in reply to radicalcrash 11 minutes ago

radicalcrash has made a comment on Sonic the Hedgehog is a bad game, and here’s why:

@Enos666 …thought Sonic and Elise were awkward? *shivers* Try Mass Effect. Don’t get me wrong, I love Mass Effect, but it’s far more disturbing than 06 - which doesn’t even look weird. But, yes, Sonic 06 is a game with flaws. They just aren’t enough for all this. And it has to mean something that I and practically everyone I know has no trouble playing 06.

This isn’t even all of it, but it’s as much as Youtube would allow me to salvage with the appropriate conversation threads intact. Considering how long this has been going on without showing signs of stopping, I might need to get rid of this guy. He’s treating this like a forum for his (apparently increasingly warped) opinions, and that’s not really what the comments section of a Youtube video is. I have a threadbare responsibility to respond to people who leave comments, because it’s my video. I made it, I uploaded it, I “own” it. He doesn’t have an excuse; he’s just loitering just so he can throw down the gauntlet with whoever will lend him an ear.
