Make it so you can buy skins with the in-game currency people have saved up. It’s a slap in the face to not allow that, people put down money when the game came out because they new there would be more skins, so the extra gold would be used down the line. Now Blizzard made that gold useless.

We need an article on the whole summer “limited time only” lootbox stuff that’s just going on today.

Or maybe, just maybe, people who agree with AVGN just don’t think the new Ghostbusters looks good?

And here we have the “I don’t have a counterpoint, so ad hominem and baseless claims it is” line of thinking.

What video is that from.

I think you drastically misunderstood the point of my comment.

Yup, and wtf is up with mentioning his race every three sentences? Admittedly some of the instances flow with the description of the man, but more than a couple left me thinking “what does it matter if he’s white?” You hit the nail on the head.

I remember finding him around the same time because I randomly felt like looking up gameplay footage of the old NES TMNT game I played for ages around age 5 or 6. Led me straight to his review and I was instantly addicted. Good times.

Jesus, I’m so tired of this reductive bullshit.

I’m not seeing the “soft sexism” in these videos. He pretty much ignores the fact that the new GB movie is all female cast other than mentioning the fact that people are referencing it as such (“female ghostbusters”) because there aren’t other good options, basically as a way to skewer the use of the name without the…

and not because of the cast. I have no problem of any of the ladies. Kristen Wigg especially is a hoot. The movie just looks bad.

To be fair, Ghostbusters does look horrible.

It should if you have half a brain. He’s a person, his name is James Rolfe. The author wasn’t pointing out his skin color as just an observation, there was an agenda behind mentioning it, and that’s wrong to do, no matter what color someone’s skin is.

Not only that, but the two videos he made don’t even come *close* to touching on the sexism point. It’s never brought up, never hinted at, never discussed. I’m honestly flabbergasted that people can say “you’re being sexist” with those two videos.

I’ve been watching James for his entire ten year run. I’ve watched everything he puts out, Monster Madness, Board James, James and Mike Mondays, and even the horror films he made when he was a kid. After a decade I still get super excited when I see a new AVGN video in my feed, and have a viewing party with my friends…

It’s as if the concept of a satire was made for people like you. You know, the ones who actually take it seriously.

Skipped right over Silicon valley and ended up in jersey. Amazing work here!

I love AVGN, but I wish his other/better series got more attention. Board James was brilliant.

I love AVGN. Mostly just the AVGN videos but sometimes I watch the Mike and Matt Mondays. I’m a subscriber but I don’t watch everything everyone that I subscribe to puts out. That’s an option. I didn’t know he made a statement about the new Ghostbusters movie but I don’t see anything inherently wrong with saying it’s…

I like how you're making race an issue by repeatedly pointing out that he's white.
