The only troll i see here is you as all your posts are pertaining to my comments. *hands you a tissue* get on with your life.
Washington, DC: Officially confirmed by Yahtzee to be the sleaziest, most debaucherous place in the U.S. Of course, we knew that already...that's where our government lives. But still, it's a shame that good sane people like Barack Obama, his family, and most of his cabinet have to be there. Someday, hopefully, they'll be able to get out. Of course they'll have to wade through reactionaries, bible-belters, hypocrites, corrupt politicians and lobbyists to do so.
I smell a possible L4D 3 here...

This was the first time that I stopped watching a ZP video (if one can call it that) halfway through because it was boring... and I've seen them all! I dunno what the big idea was here, Yahtzee, but I don't think it worked out very well.
Mmm, cake. Wow, I was in the same country as Yahtzee!
...thats not really something you can brag to your friends about.
Still, that was cool. I've always wanted to go to DC. Looks like you had fun, but I think the guys you had with you weren't really into your vagina philosophy.
Your other question reminded me of Yu yu Hakasho. "If you kill yourselves to save yourself, is it murder or survival?" But that was because he had seven clones of himself, so the situation actually came up! Aren't you glad yours hasn't?

I find it sort of amusing how at the end of the day, you're sticking up for a video of a man standing in front of buildings and making observations of them. It really wasn't funny nor needed. I watch Unskippable to see people making humourous musings over game movies, I watch Doomsday Arcade to watch a series of two guys make game related jokes and I watch Zero Punctuation to get game reviews. I don't watch ZP to get people talking about buildings on a road trip so I can see where all the anguish from his followers come from. People have the right to be upset. It wasn't the humour he usually gives.DayDark said:
My only complaint is that I wish the audio/video were a little better. Was like watching someone's amateur home video. Also needed closed captions to make out what Yahtzee was saying half the time.
Other than that it had some boring parts but quite a few funny parts as well. I liked the "If you were expecting Zero Punctuation this week then uh... fuck you."
LOL. So no one has a right to complain, you were warned well in advance.

More like super punctuation -- Yahtzee sounds so subdued in person compared to his online persona. Almost like he took a Valium.
Wish I knew he was in town, I live just outside of DC!
Was hoping he would do more commentary on the city itself, I would've liked to hear what he had to poke fun at (there is plenty here to do that about). More like random musings.

Ooh, that's nice, care to come up with a different argument except "I am not a troll. You're a troll for calling me a troll"?DCEpisodeBlows said:
Uhh, ok. Yahtzee has every right to take a break/go on holiday. That's not what most are up-in-arms about. It's the content more than anything else. I'll admit I wasn't entertained, I even stopped watching half-way through, but I'm hardly crying rivers over it. Yahtzee took a break, there was no ZP this week, and the filler didn't really do anything for me. I'll still watch next week.Maur DL said:
Nice to see what Yahtzee gets up to on holidays, anywho.
yeah, it's almost as funny as being butt hurt by the same video, because one had a subjective idea about how funny it was, even though the video states at the beginning why it's different.PurpleRain said:
actually it was funny, and needed. It's needed because it's shows why there aren't another review up, while still being humorous, as a generous compensation. He could have stopped the video after the "fuck you" statement, he could even have made a single written statement, "no video this week, I'm in DC", and that would have been suffice. I really don't care for the reasons why you watch stuff, they aren't universal. I watch it all because it's good fun and gaming related. My world doesn't come crashing down because it was different due to a little vacation, it certainly wont be worth commenting on, even if I had been bored. It's a single deviation from his usual form, not like he changed genre forever. You didn't buy a ticket when you started the video, and you could have stopped it any time. You lost nothing, you're just acting spoiled.
...So, expressing a negative opinion = acting like a bastard? Okay then...
...I guess.
No, in fact I felt compelled to sign up because it shocked me that people actually feel the need to swear and call people names for expressing their disliking of something that came as a complete surprise to everyone - just like your own oh-so-polite post.
