Game Grumps do AO
 
I dunno if anyone follows Game Grumps, I haven't watched it for years but funnily enough this came up on my youtube dash this morning. Maybe it'll be good for free advertising? I personally couldn't watch more than like 2 minutes because the players grate on me a lot.

I'm a huge fan of Game Grumps; The main guys. Not so much the other guys. They seem okay though. I'd still like it if Dan and Arin played it instead.

My biggest problem with the video is the screen is constantly shaking. Apparently, it was easily fixable and they just didn't do it. It's unwatchable honestly.

This was an awful video. 90% of it was them fooling around at the menu, and the shaky screen. They literally played 4 screens of the game.

I've unsubbed from GG a few months ago. Long after they stopped being funny.

There are some interesting comments in the top voted:

Surprizingly, the guys who made them are not from OWF, I think

Honestly, Matthewmatosis' video made a sizable mark I think. I could be wrong but I'm not sure "NnT is a shite game" would have much momentum without a popular Youtube critic behind it.

Varrok 02-21-2016 04:38 AM

I didn't realise his video has over 165 000 views as for this moment.

Connell 02-21-2016 05:15 AM

That was one of the poorest YouTube videos I have ever seen. Nothing happened throughout the whole damn thing, and it's like none of them have ever played a game before. I can excuse their lack of Oddworld knowledge because they're not trying to be experts, but the production and everything in general just sucked.

Connell, you seem pissed off. Don't be jealous.

I'll do my best.

Vlam is like a meta-embodiment of OWF at this point.

Alf Shall Rise 02-21-2016 08:04 AM

The shaky screen is horrible. Not sure why they thought it would be alright not to fix it, unless it was an issue they weren't aware of until they actually uploaded it.

Cool that GG is covering Oddworld, even if it isn't the main duo, but still neat. I don't think I'm the target audience for this at all so there's not much enjoyment I can get from it.

What is the meaning of this sentence?

STM 02-21-2016 12:11 PM

You are OWF.


Also, I agree, the shaky camera thing made me want to cry.

Crashpunk 02-21-2016 12:21 PM

Part 2 is up. They fixed the camera shake, but the brightness is way up.

Amazing.

Varrok 02-21-2016 12:24 PM

They must have had problems with the capture device/software that caused shaking and switched it to another one that's got different brightness settings or something

Barry is my spirit animal.

Job McYossie 02-21-2016 01:53 PM

That was horrible. I was so excited because "oh wow one of my fave games is getting publicity!" but this just makes the game look shitty. You couldn't even hear the cutscenes.

MA 02-21-2016 03:29 PM

i didn't think they were too bad. they're stumbling through the game and playing it differently to how i would, which is refreshing. it's good that one of them has played the game before as a kid so he sort of knows the basics and can guide the other one through it, instead of just not having a clue whatsoever and getting bored or frustrated and not playing it again. i hope they finish it.

Nepsotic 02-21-2016 04:45 PM

I can't stand Game Grumps. They're just Two Best Friends Play besides the part where they're funny.

Shade667 02-21-2016 05:49 PM

I didnt have a problem with the video. Didnt even notice the shake til you pointed it out.

Vexen 02-21-2016 08:18 PM

I CANNOT STAND watching other people play games.

Crashpunk 02-22-2016 01:24 AM

You'd love my channel Vexen.

Could you do a "Crashpunk reacts to Game Grumps" video?

Phylum 02-22-2016 02:32 AM

Please do, then I can make a reply-girl(/man) video about it!

I've already wrote a script.

:

"Alright guys, it's me Wariopunk! Bringing you some Oddworld News!"

"Game Grumps are playing Abe's Oddysee, and are doing a horrible job at it!"

"Okay Bye"

Scrabaniac 02-23-2016 04:03 AM

Just watched part 2 of Game Grumps. Still not much progress.. Still shitty quality too. They really aren't doing Oddworld any favours!

Edit: Part 3 still has bad quality

MA 02-23-2016 07:20 AM

i've heard they're only going to do ten episodes of this so i don't really see the point. they spend most of their time stood still talking about bullshit completely unrelated to the game anyway and the visual quality is wank.

Vlam 02-23-2016 02:30 PM

If some of you dislike "Game Grumps" so much, then why do you keep watching his videos?

Scrabaniac 02-23-2016 03:51 PM

Well i kinda read the comments to see how many people haven't played the game before, and whether their video is giving them positive or negative impressions.
