By now you've probably seen Yahtzee, Matt Burgess, and Guy Blomberg in Game Damage. I thought the first episode was decent but can anyone shake the feeling that we're just watching because Yahtzee id in it?

I must say, thanks to everyone who is posting entire new threads for their generic feedback, because your opinions are obviously too special and important to go with everyone else's in the general criticism thread. You thick twats.

*slaps galdonyetich across the face* Shut up, damnit! Just forget about Yahtzee, for christ's sake. Why to you continue to appease and support a man that openly hates us all? Do you realize what kind of abusive relationship that is?geldonyetich said:He's demanding we critically think! BLASPHEMY!

Okay, I'm being serious now. I wasn't planning on checking out Game Damage because I don't really want to support a man any longer who openly hates and alienates his own fan base. At this point I'm borderline indifferent to Yahtzee and his little shenanigans.geldonyetich said:Did that one go right over your head or shall I play along?Vanguard1219 said:*slaps galdonyetich across the face* Shut up, damnit!

"You don't know Yahtzee like I do! Beneath that sharp and unforgiving veneer is a kind and loving man who would happily drop anything to save me from my pit of squalor and whisk me away to the palaces that only creators of viral Internet videos can afford! Sure, we're both men and straight, but I'm sure we can overcome this hurdle and find happiness!"

I really don't see the problem with watching a show that I like.Danzorz said:Instead of watching a show about a man who I despise I believe we should I dunno maybe...um...form our own opinions about games instead of getting an english-man with a messiah complex to tell us what he thinks and what he believes is good...what I think will happen to the forums at game damage will be this.
No one will keep a watchful eye over them and sooner or later people will become trolls and invoke flame wars, thus making yahtzee look stupid. You see peoples when you let everyone on a forum be un-moderated (Like some of the forums on game damage) you will look like what your fan-base is, I.E. your fan base represents you, if you have stupid friends people will have the common assumption of thinking your a stupid, this applies to yahtzee in particular, his forums are un-moderated and thus could turn into massive amounts of /b/-tardage, completely ruining his image, thus making me laugh constantly.
