:
@Manco, the main difference between Brooker and Croshaw is that Charlie Brooker has worked with or on TV for all of his career. He understands the medium and is therefore in a good position to give useful insight.

Croshaw, on the other hand, is just a guy on YouTube who got popular, has never worked at a game company, and has never made a game in his life beyond three or four short, average-quality, 2D adventure games.
Well that’s kind of my point. Brooker knows what he’s talking about, and can this provide useful insight while also being funny.

Meanwhile, Yahtzee cannot provide this same insight and expertise, and so can only be funny.

So comparing the two as though they are similar:
:
Oh, don't get me ranting about Yahtzee again. He's like Charlie Brooker: He's a comedian, not a critic. Watch his videos, and enjoy them. Just don't take anything he says to heart.
is not justified.
