I care about Yahtzee. And I don't really believe we can define Yahtzee so narrowly as either a reviewer or a comedian. He plays a game, tells us what he likes and doesn't like and makes some jokes in between for the sake of it. He's not exactly reviewing the game; he's simply telling us what he noticed as far as gameplay mistakes; story blunders, etc.
yes of course, he is a human being after all, its just that i find it funny that people have so much rage over him because of what he does, he didnt finished the game? BLASPHEMY!!!!, he didnt liked the game i liked? BLASPHEMY!!!, he is bashing a game for forgetable flaws? BLASPHEMY!!!, i watch his reviews and more often than not i agree with what he says, i remember that i played "Alone In The Dark" and stopped playing exactly at the same stage he did, because of the same things he said!, and his "review" wasnt even out, of course i laughed my ass of when he reviewed the game because i could relate to it, its the people that "blind" themselves on certain things they like that cant posibly imagine a guy that rants about a game on the web is right, i mean, i loved Fallout: New Vegas but i didnt liked the exact same things he bashed about in his review, i didnt liked "Saints Row 2" even thought he praised the game to bits, but i recognize that what he said was true (funny and what GTAIV should have being), the way he says them is what makes his "reviews" funny.
i like his show, but i woulnd put up a "shrine" around him, i agree with the things he says, and i believe he is exagerating most of the time, but bottom line, if he didnt liked something that i did liked i wouldnt care because after all its his opinion, and everyone can have his own opinion about anything.
there are hundreds of haters on this site, but they are the ones that take him too seriously, the others that i have seen dont "praise" him, they just laugh at his reviews nodding and saying "so true" and often point out that he "exagerated" somewhere, or that he missed an important part of the game, and funnily those are the ones that actually like him!
i laugh at the guys that say "EVERYONE ELSE TAKE HIS WORD BLINDLY" because i have never seen anyone here that genuinely deffended him or actually said "HE IS THE BEST REVIEWER EVER".
that was my point
