I want it for my Wii-U but it's not out here yet >_<
It looks really fun and I haven't played a game like it for a good while.

yes I did ignore your "points" because there is a much bigger issue here that you lack a basic understanding of how things work.VyseRogueKing said:No "what" as in they didn't buy Game Grumps. They bought the company they have a contract with. That literally changes nothing about them. A contract doesn't change when the owner is bought out. It may be open for review or maybe even cut off but it won't be changed outright. Maybe I should have specified.bobdole1979 said:ummm you don't even know that Disney bought the Game Grumps... seriouly? wow if you don't even know that then you shouldn't be in this conversation.VyseRogueKing said:...What?bobdole1979 said:Why do you think Disney bought them? They are a marketing tool.
But thanks for ignoring the entirety of my post for one word when the issue is not about Game Grumps in particular. That furthers my point that you be trollin' and I seriously shouldn't have even bothered with this post to humor you.
Well technically it makes up all of the airtime...Clowndoe said:British comedy is practically half the air-time on his weekly Youtube show.ZZoMBiE13 said:Wow. Yahtzee likes Red Dwarf. Good to know!
Not really, the game just had the luxury of being a relatively new (and actually finished) indie game released during the summer game drought.bobdole1979 said:wow Shovelknight has paid everyone haha. I didn't know Yatzee did paid reviews but ok. Not very sudbtle when Continue? GameGrumps, Yatzee and everyone else reviews the same game at the same time.
and you think that explains why shows like Game Grumps and Continue? who don't play new games unless they sponsor them are playing this?Two-A said:Not really, the game just had the luxury of being a relatively new (and actually finished) indie game released during the summer game drought.bobdole1979 said:wow Shovelknight has paid everyone haha.

Continue? plays games mostly from the NES era.

you understand that summer drought is meaningless to Gamegrumps an dContinue right?
I can't think of a single time Continue played a game on a current gen system can you?
Tell me how many games have they ever played brand new? Answer? Just 1 shovel knight.Enlong said:Continue? plays games mostly from the NES era.

Well, they played it 'cause Yacht Club sent it in, much like most of the games they play. I suppose if someone gifted them a copy of Rogue Legacy, or FTL or something, it could appear. And they seem to have liked it a lot, hence the 2-parter.bobdole1979 said:Tell me how many games have they ever played brand new? Answer?

There are plenty of indie games that are NES like but they don't play them why do you think that is? Also why is it this was their only 2 part episode?
It depends on how you define Parallax, lest we get down to semantics.Roger said:Was I the only constantly getting a trifle miffed over Yahtzee's thorn in the side of "NES can't parallax scroll"?

I don't know how Shovel Knight does it, but the NES could totally Parallax.
Can I acknowledge it for him? Please? Could you address his points now?bobdole1979 said:yes I did ignore your "points" because there is a much bigger issue here that you lack a basic understanding of how things work.

yeah Disney did BUY game grumps. But hey don't take my word for it. As soon as you acknowledge reality I can move on to your "points"

Which is a fair principle to abide by when your audience is a worldwide thing.Scow2 said:Localization requires time. Worldwide release dates merely means they're holding off on releasing a finished product until the slowest localization teams finish, as opposed to releasing the game when it's done where it's done, and not holding back releases for unrelated development cycles.
are you arguing that Disney bought Gamegrumps? If not yeah i can have the conversation with youLotet said:Can I acknowledge it for him? Please?

Okay, now what? I don't see how the argument changes in any way.
this is pretty stupid and I hope you won't stand by it. The most succesful indie games of the past few years Braid, Supermeatboy, and others all got their biggest boost in marketing by youtube. The day they came out people were raving about the game on youtube. in fact Souljaboy famously made a youtube video of himself raving about Braid which caused a spike in game sales.the best they can do is give demos out to garner interest. This "new way of marketing" is hardly even feasible to the indie scene.
i agree people will play good games. The issue is that its being played by people who don't play new games on their channel. Continue has never played a new game.... ever let alone do a 2 part episode on the day the game was released.When new games come out that are actually good, people play them. It's simple as that. There may be a bunch of let's plays on Shovel Knight but all of them being paid by the publisher/dev makes that even less likely.
