I’ve watched Spoiler Warning for a really long time. Since very near the beginning. For a lot of that time, it was flat-out my favorite thing to watch on the Internet. When did it become so. . . lazy? I don’t mean the casual tone, or the production, or anything like that. But so much of what’s put been put forward lately, and for this game in particular, is just really lazy, petty, disinterested put-downs. Not playful joking about video game goofiness, not insightful criticism or interpretation, not even worthwhile tangents. Just mean-spirited empty fed-uppedness with things that, really, seem perfectly fine. In a game that was quite nice, too. Why do this if you’re so uninterested in engaging with the games? It’s just sort of draining and depressing to be around. I dunno.
Maybe just the way of the world now? Everything sucks. Maybe they’re taking it out on the game? It doesn’t help that it is accidentally so relevant that it’s constantly reminding them of the current state of the world.
