The worst is I think many of them *actually don’t think* they are being bigoted.  It's sad.

I’ll give them two weeks a most to back paddle on this decision. In those two weeks comment sections will be filled with “DISLIKE!!!!” and “Like this comment to dislike” comments under every video, making the situation worse for EVERYONE.

While I can only roll my eyes at dipshit brigades to downvote a trailer because something something ethics in game journalism, this fucking sucks. Dislike count is still incredibly important when you’re doing things like, say, googling a problem and trying to find a fix. Clicking onto a video and seeing it has a 1:5…

Came to say something similar. That feature has come in handy when I watched videos about working on a car, something I am not very good at, so I try to find people who have good concise information. If it had a high dislike I would usually shoot down to the comments to see if it was genuine or people clowning…

I know for a fact that I have seen channels that already had the count disabled. There must have been some algorithm penalty for disabling it I guess because I always wondered why everyone didn’t do it.

im sure it was entirely to protect people and not at all influenced by large corporations getting indignant over people disliking their videos.

Adblock for Life

I kinda likes seeing the dislike counter. If you clicked on a video you were unsure of you could immediately see if it was worth your time... After the ads of course. 

I feel no shame in using AdBlock for that shit. It’s getting a bit out of hand, given the frequency and length, and how more and more of them are unable to be skipped. If I want to watch a minute long trailer, I shouldn’t have to sit through a 2 unskippable 30 sec ads of products I don’t care or need just to get to it.

They’ve also added extra commercials. It just gets better and better.

So far they sold out in minutes and won’t have another batch to go on sell until Q2 2022, so I don’t see a discount anytime soon. If anything this inflation will make their prices go up.

I have to assume this was sarcasm. It is weird to use that game to show of this new state of the art product, the main draw of which is that it can apparently play more complex games that the Switch or a phone cannot. 

Amen. Give us Bully, you cowards!

I replayed all three this year. GTA3 is rough as hell, but it’s mega short. You can complete the game, story and all side missions, in about 10-12 hours, and you can easily 100% it in ~20 hours if you know what you’re doing. It’s also not quite as dependent on combat accuracy; you can usually bring heavy artillery to…

I tried playing GTA3 last month. After experiencing that control scheme for the first time in 20 years, I have no idea how I was ever able to 100% that game.

And the motorcycle mission. Unless we love hearing “ all you have to do is follow the damn train CJ” over and over again.

Better renew the soundtrack rights. I have it laser-engraved in my memory that Michael Jackson’s “Billie Jean” is playing when you drive away from Ken Rosenberg’s practice and that’s no longer the case in the Steam version.

Just Watch is fantastic. It even works for the Canadians, which is actually kind of rare. It’s by far the easiest way to search through what to watch…especially when you’re consuming your streaming services on an Apple TV like I am.

I instinctively think of posters from the 80's. That pose feels of that time.

there’s a joke to be made here about how first party nintendo games never go on sale, but this is ridiculous
