Poll: Jimquisition: like or dislike

[blobby218]

I've watched a couple of his videos now and i'll say they're not for me, and i was reading some comments the other day with mixed feelings on him, so i was wondering what everyone really though. Be honest now folks.

 

[wolf thing]

he make some good points but his humor is hit or miss so over all hes pretty good

 

[Ilikemilkshake]

he's got some good and interesting opinions on things.. but i dont like the way he puts them across alot of the time. I'll keep watching though just to see how it develops

 

[Jamboxdotcom]

Can't frickin' stand him. He's more obnoxious than Yahtzee, and without the charisma. Even when he makes a valid point, it feels like he's shaking his dick in my face. Needless to say, i don't appreciate it. However, to be clear, i don't bother watching his videos anymore, so they no longer bother me. I don't care for it, but i'm not going to march on Escapist HQ with torches and a pitchfork and demand they stop hosting his vids. It's a problem with an easy solution: don't watch.

Also, it appears you've made a double-thread.

 

[ZtH]

I'm not a fan. I stopped watching.

 

[SilentCom]

I'm not a fan of Jimquisition. I've only seen a couple episodes but most of what I've seen is just a bunch of ranting with very little humor or good points.

 

[For.I.Am.Mad]

He's a'ight. He gave Witcher 2 a 6/10, though. I can't judge cuz I don't have rig to play it on.

 

[DJDarque]

I dislike him very much. I gave the first two episodes a chance and I will never watch another one again. I honestly don't think he even belongs here, but to each their own I guess.

 

[Daystar Clarion]

A bit hit and miss really. He's a poor man's Yahtzee and his insights are less refined than Extra Credits.

Although, I do love the soundtrack for the intro.

 

[BrownGaijin]

I'll be honest, I've never seen any of his videos. Something about his picture rubs me the wrong way.

 

[DustyDrB]

I like it. I prefer Jim's writing more, though.

He also present his problems with The Witcher 2 well and even said it's not a bad game. Destructoid, and Jim especially, are known for using the full 10 point scale. Though I hate numerical scores for reviews, Dtoid is one of the few places where such a score isn't a complete joke.

 

[baconsarnie]

The first two were appaling, he stepped it up a bit (including acknowledging the fact that not many people liked his show). Then went back to making rubbish.

 

[staika]

It's okay, nothing truly amazing but it's alright seeing as I can sit through an episode without wanting to kill something. That said a lot of his humor is not funny but he does make good points.

 

[Fwee]

I like the show, like his opinions and the way he presents them, but don't like him. I'll keep watching. Not even ten episodes in, you think shows don't need to get the kinks out?

 

[loc978]

Slightly entertaining delivery, but with nothing new to say. Watchable.

 

[Jim Grim]

It's ok, some of it's funny although most of the humour is a little questionable, and it's fairly interesting. I think some people just aren't used to people they disagree with on these matters speaking so forcefully, which might have something to do with how sanitized these forums are. They see him taking the piss a little and they just immediately cry troll.

 

[Fayathon]

Truth be told I like him in Extra Consideration a hell of a lot more than in his videos. That being said he raises some valid points IMO and I like hearing what he's gone off on each week.

He's got way more than ten. He's been making Jimquisitions on Destructoid for a while now.

 

[orangebandguy]

Dislike.

Very much so, honestly can't stand him. So I won't watch any more of his videos, simple solutions work the best. ^^

I can't speak for everyone, but i haven't disagreed at all with what he's said (aside from some of his jokes that were obvious piss-takes and therefore not something to argue), but the way he says everything is incredibly off-putting.
