Muh dick was right.
Half of it was just him screaming about Skyward Sword.
Egoraptor is an idiot who has never been right about anything. The only bigger morons are people who would actually take anything this highschool dropout says seriously.
I mean to be fair Skyward Sword is trash
no he's not, logically where could nintendo have gone with this game?
>players new to 3d environments
>nintendo new to 3d enviroments
>don't want to scare off die hard fans of the series
>100 mg of storage
It's actually perfection what we got, seeing as the original pitch was to just make it zelda but in the vein of super mario 64. His opinion on ss is bullshit aswell, there had been cries for large temples since majoras mask so logically they chose to make the world a legit dungeon it itself and keep skyloft as the exploration part. Both are great games for taking in feedback while still bringing ideas to the table
Erin is never right. Even when he was factually correct, he is still wrong
Fucker couldn't even beat Majora's Mask with a guide and Dan the Man to cheer his lazy ass on
Making too much fuzz about little issues. His point about z-targeting being bad is specially retarded considering how many other console action games without said idea had way shittier combat systems without anything similar.
His mega man x video shows a very pleb knowledge of game design. I'm glad he didn't make more of these.
This is how easy the boss that completely filtered Arin is when you aren't a complete retard.
>The part where he complains about backing up into the spike thing in that room in the spirit temple
Dumb motherfucker seriously can't grasp that things don't stop existing when you aren't looking at them. A goddamn grown man doesn't have object permanence. That's something that literal babies develop.
Yeah, OOT and MM are the most overrated games of all time, the latter being even worse than the former in terms of quality.
It might have been good back then, but it has aged horribly.
>game provides useful tools in ridiculous abundance, the only way to run out is to actively waste them on nothing and avoid pots and grass
>said useful tools can be used to force openings against enemies who normally only leave themselves open during certain animations
>i don't use them, that means the game is bad
I strongly disagree. If you go back and play games from that era released before OoT you can see just how much of a leap forward the game was in all aspects.
that faggot didnt even play SS at the time of the video.
He didn't? I thought he played it b4 the game grumps upload
That video was fucking garbage. He barely elaborated on fucking anything. A lot of his takes were subjective to the point of meaninglessness
Eh, I love OoT and MM and think that 3D Zelda is better than 2D. But they're different enough that I can see the 2D fans not caring for the 3D games.
my mistake, he did play it just didn't finish it. my bad. arin still a faggot though
ment this for you
I just don't think they're overrated. People who have been playing games exclusively released within the past 20 years are missing the context for why the game was so highly rated in the first place.
This is mean.
I have zero patience, little skill and get frustrated easily. With nothing but a Eurogamer guide and the hype inertia from the Emberlab short film I 100% MM in a few days
Erin a bitch
This is an important point - the time of a game's release should ALWAYS be a factor in an in-depth review. You have to take limitations and trends of the time into consideration.
The fact he took like an hour to find the shield in WW made me throw any complains he had out the window of consideration.
I don't think it was uncommon to get stuck like that in a Zelda game, even back then.
>Haha, you freaking crybabies just can't accept that Ocarina of Time is the most garbage game in history! It's so overrated and has aged badly, and everything Egoraptor says is fact. Maybe you grandpas should play something better than Ocarina of Time, like Dark Souls or Super Mario Galaxy!
He's in his late 20s or early 30s though.
>useful tools that can be used to speed up combat require more use of the painfully slow and clunky N64 menu
Literally if he had added this bit it would have solidified his entire boring combat argument.
But you can assign three items to be ready to be used at once while in gameplay, that was an improvement over pretty much every other console game at the time. They either had you pause the game to pick just one item or cycle through them one at a time during gameplay.
>for the time it was fine
Not an argument. Combat in ocarina is passable at best and a nuisance at worst, but then again nobody plays zelda for a deep and engaging combat system so I'm not sure why everyone got so butt blasted over it's criticism.
This is the video in which he realized he doesn't know dick about game design and so he stopped making analysis videos
It's still a great system to this day, the Dark Souls games everybody loves only lets you use one item at a time with cycling forward and back. How is that not a devolution?
Wait I haven't played Dark Souls in forever, you can only cycle in one direction too. That's a total step back.
I'll admit that I prefer Link to the Past,but Arin is fucking awful at most videogames. Anything in a game that requires more than just the most basic amount of thought just utterly baffles him. Kinda hard to take his opinion on any Zelda game serious when he's so blatantly fucking shit at them.
Oh, absolutely. I think a lot of people like to shit on them solely because they're so beloved. Contrarianism is the shortest, laziest path to a false sense of superiority.
I doubt that changes much. If you look up blind playthroughs of Ocarina of Time, you can see some of them getting stuck trying to find out what to do in various places.
user WW gives you a cutscene that shows exactly where the shield is he was just to busy mashing through it because fuck narratives.
I had very little respect for arins ability to grasp basic concepts but the tipping point was when I skipped to the last episode of their sonic and the black knight playthrough you know when he should have at the very least a basic grasp of the mechanics and he just couldn't figure it out, also when he actually fucking died to chaos 0 of all the things to die to in sa1 jesus christ people listen to this guy I USED TO LISTEN TO THIS GUY
>wants a quest you have to escort a goron and feed it things
>hates spike traps because he doesn't have object permanence
>suggests literally the same trap later on in the video
>never takes off the hover boots because he's retarded and thinks it's an upgrade
>mashes attack like it's a 2d zelda and never blocks
I admit he's a faggot
Arin is a fucking tard.
arin's opinions on games are like a pompous rich boy going to a restaurant and bitching about the steak being dry and flavorless after he ordered it well done and smothered it with ketchup
I don't know how anyone could take this seriously even if they used to agree with his points when he's shown he is physically and mentally incapable of playing video games designed for children.
Literally every single argument he has about not liking a game is because of his severe ADHD. he just wants to press right and go.
LOUD = FUNNY
HEY IM GRUMP XD
I watched him play Bloodborne on Game Grumps (this was before I ever had the notion of getting my own PS4, I was in a very bad place financially) and I thought "hey he's not bad at EVERY game."
Then my life improved a bit and I got my hands on a PS4 and some games, including Bloodborne, and after a full playthrough, I re-watched the GG series and realized that, yes, he got through it, but he is not good at it. He's lucky at it.
>game has tutorial: UGH FUCK OFF TUTORIALS ARE LAME AND SHOULDN'T EXIST -skips tutorial if game allows-
>game doesn't have tutorial: UGH WHAT THE FUCK HOW AM I EXPECTED TO JUST KNOW HOW TO DO THIS AUTOMATICALLY
>game has tutorial, he goes through it: UGH WHAT THE FUCK HOW AM I EXPECTED TO JUST KNOW HOW TO DO THIS AUTOMATICALLY
Arin literally can't comprehend 3D environments. This is painfully known to anyone who's watched him try to play a 3D game. It kind of makes his labored arguments about what makes a frustrating 3D combat system pointless.
Nah, he is clearly 3D illiterate which poisons the tree of his arguments. Half of the shit he complains about is not a problem for the non-retarded.
>just WALKS into a pit
>like, steps right into it
>it's clearly visible
>it doesn't look like something that isn't a pit
>it's quite clearly a pit
>he walks directly into it
>it's not off-screen
>it's almost entirely on-screen
>he just... pitter-patter-pitter-patter aaaaaaaa
>this is somehow bad game design????
Several of the problems that he lists for Ocarina of Time were also a thing in Link to the Past.
And him complaining about there being too much story is ridiculous. Zelda team always wanted to put more story in the game, but before they didn't have space for it. It's well known that during NES and SNES eras developers had to go through the scripts of the games and delete any pieces of text that weren't needed just to make the game fit on a cartridge.
*debunks everything arin said*
I'm at the part with the bomb bag what the fuck is wrong with this guys head
>Ego spends his entire life playing video games
>My fucking GRANDMOTHER has hardly ever touched the damn things outside of Pac-Man, and she could still navigate 3D spaces in the few she has played better than Ego.
Don't forget he just puked it out in a random stream. Didn't write an essay or edit a long video. Just ranted real quick about it.
I don't like DD but it was fucking based.
He's been crumbling ever since he got married. The woman he married is a fucking harpy. You just KNOW he's the only guy she's not having sex with at the grump office.
Do you know where I can find a clip of it?
I don't, sorry. I was watching it live when it happened. Maybe go through VODs.
I was about to tell you I don't have a time frame of when it happened, but I just remembered I talked about it in a group chat with some bros while it was happening. August 20, 2019.
youtu.be
Actual sub 85 IQ moment caught on video.
NO
Arin is just dog shit at video games and bias.
Arin's first Zelda game was ALttP. He's used to top down Zelda and SNES games.
His complaints about OoT are because he's uncreative and shit.
>So much fucking waiting.
You don't HAVE to fight enemies with JUST your sword. You can use deku seeds to stun, arrows and bombs. It's his fault for waiting around like a goob. Also Z-targeting makes those type of enemies circle around and dodge. If you don't Z-target and get good at rolling, dodging and timing, you can attack any enemy any way you want.
>Z-targeting is bad
No, Z-targeting is literally just auto-targeting. It makes the game easier. It absolutely works. The only bad thing about Z-targeting is switching targets. Also you don't HAVE to Z-target. If you git gud, you can analog aim. And as I said, if you git gud you can roll and dodge to fight.
>Is looking around to shoot an eye a puzzle?
YES. Looking for a missing piece or a clue is a puzzle. Zelda is an action/adventure with exploration game. OoT is a 3D utilizes this instead of just being looking down from above for a bomb wall and a switch. Now you look up, down and all around for clues and switches.
Arin is DOG SHIT at games.
When he played Jontron at GAS, Arin threw a fit because Jon figured out the controls faster.
Arin has played other Zelda games with Danny.
ARIN DOES NOT USE HIS FUCKING SHIELD, EVER, EVER, EVER, EVER, EVER!
He bitched like a faggot fighting the Reaper mini-boss in stone temple in MM.
Why was he losing? BECAUSE HE WASN'T USING HIS FUCKING SHIELD!
Reaper sends a beam of bats at you. You're suppose to reflect them with your shield then attack and use light arrows. He didn't. Instead he ran around and took all damage, couldn't get a hit in, and bitched, taking over 40 minutes to beat him. All because he didn't use his shield.
He didn't use his shield in OoT, TP, SS, or BotW.
So he's fucking retarded. He's also a high school drop out.
Oh ok I found his stream archive and the August stream so I'll just watch the whole thing till I get to the specific part however that will have to wait until I finish watching arin make a court jester out of himself while playing OOT
So how much money does he make? His channel is pretty big big he has like 40 people employed so his overhead must be huge.
That's a majority of new Game Grumps for games Arin doesn't like. He'll intentionally ignore shit to find things to bitch about, he did it even more with Skyward Sword.
Are you subscribed to him? I only see on past vod.
Fucking this.
Never EVER put any value into what Arin has to say and especially critique about video games without knowing how fucking awful he is at games.
