Its really weird to call people hating on other M story sexist, I'd say other M is probably the most sexist game I ever played.

Normal Samus: See a planet full of juicy space pirate bounty, go there alone with minimal equipment, kick everyone and everything asses and leave with a giant arsenal of weapon she found on site. The fact that she's a women is irrelevant.

Other M Samus: Immediately become an obedient pet to some male character that has no authority over here and wait for his command to use her arsenal even when not doing so means she literally cook alive, would rather die than go against a man authority. The only other theme of the story is that women can make baby.

Normal Samus: See Ripley, immediately start deep throating him with super missiles

Other M Samus: See Ripley, start crying and is completely unable to do anything until a man comes in and saves her.

Fusion Adam was fine aside from him blocking you gameplay wise, he did have an obnixious neckbeard "m'lady"-like way to refer to Samus but it wasn't used often.

Whatever, just wash your hands.
You didn't follow him early enough. You forced me to do this. Game Overthinker: Episode 40. The big problem with his argument is that he completely misses the point of why people are upset. For the record, Bob hates the Metroid prime games because they are in first person. Bob is well known for hating on shooters aside from Doom.
Yeah, thats a really stupid take and even stupider strawman since he did totally seem to misunderstand what people found so objectionable. He even makes the argument that some characterization is better then none.

Worse show: Capcom
I have no problem with shows be so short, because it allows the presenter to be on-point without filling with extra showboating bullshit. However, if the show itself is short, i expect the content to be something good. While Capcom's things weren't the worst, they certainly weren't too exciting either.
Okay, I change my mind; the worst "show" from E3 so far are Take-two and Bandai Namco

Because unlike other guys, there were no gameplay, no trailers, not even a bit of news; Just a panel of people talking about how great their experience have been so far working in their respective positions.

Take-two even tried to pull the whole "diverse and inclusive" virtue-signal bullshit.

Neither panels weren't too exciting to listen to, making both the most boring, laughable, and complete waste of time

You forgot that this one of the most ultimate contrarian critics on the Internet. This is him 3 years in to Bob's career.

No. No, he's not. He had some ground back then, but that's only because the criticism pool was still young, and there was not much competition to compare to. As the years went on, and the landscape grew and changed, you have many that came in and did better than him. Either in personality, fact checking, production values, not being an know-it-all asshole, or all the above. Even back in the AVGN clone days, there were plenty of better options, if one bothered to look hard enough.

Do they have a dlc release date yet?
They will have a release date, when the Survival Mode Trailers comes out. My guess is that the DLC will be out in mid or late July.

Nah he was fine.
No. That's part of the problem. He got where he was, because his fans and those in his favor either ignored his more heinous or shitty actions and criticisms. Or they would make excuses. Then most of them see him for he really is and was. A lot of his fans dropped Bob the hot potato or lost interest. He still has some fans, but not even close to what it used to be. The dude got in trouble for stalking a woman on Twitter. Remember that.

That is all I will say on the matter. Believe whatever you want. Bob's curtain has long fallen and will be nothing more than a memory. If you wish to waste your precious time on him, that is on you.

That was a very cathartic read. Thanks for that.

Namco's presentation was just bizarre. Just a single game and not even a very high profile one at that.
