because most of the time people who live off of videogames are just entertainers who are getting paid for being clowns and their main source of income is patreon, twitch donations, sponsors etc. you dont have to be good at the game to get it

people who are getting paid for being good at the game are pro players and they are minority

But the vast majority of them are charisma vacuums too.
What's the appeal of watching some guy bumble his way through a game?

dont ask me i dont watch people playing games

well you made it seem like you know a thing or 2

>What's the appeal of watching some guy bumble his way through a game?
people are fucking lonely and want a vicarious friend

>handsome
what the fuck? juust being an australian faggot with that cancerous accent makes a person disgusting

wouldn't you at least pick one that isn't an unfunny rodent?

people who are good at video games are busy playing them and being losers
that guy is a youtuber first, gamer second. i don't want to use the word gamer but it fits the purpose and you know what I mean. his priority is making a YouTube video when he sits down to play, not to have fun or beat the game. that's why they suck, they're not trying to have fun or win.

this guy... where to start?
>always plays on hardest difficulty
>hardest difficulty just means the AI cheats
>every fight includes of cheesing the enemy AI with ranged units for 20 minutes until all ammunition is depleted
>has been on record stating that AI cheating this hard is bullshit and he hates it
why continue when you can just lower it? He said he doesn't care about achievements so... Why? Gamer cred?

I used to watch him when he tried to do a legendary campaign as western romans for attila. Then he suddenly sperged saying that he doesn't like to do it because it's difficult and shit, and anybody who dared to give him suggestions in the comments about how to play could go fuck themselves. He's a fucking retard and a spiteful asshole

How do you sail there, anyway?

I don't get it, how do you have a channel DEDICATED to total war games but suck at them so much? He must have put in hundreds of hours by now, surely he should be at least decent by now?? Right??

>Why? Gamer cred?
yes. he probably thinks it's stupid himself, but if he lowers the difficulty he'd lose views. normies are retarded and will only watch things if it's a meme or if it's SUPER UBER HARDMODE FOR EPIC GAMERS ONLY, nobody wants to watch some guy play Total War on normal mode because it sounds boring despite probably being way more entertaining than watching some autist cheese the AI around corners for the 300th time

>hundreds of hours by now
lol he broke 5 digits a long time ago

It's that simple, really.

Imagine being filtered anythig above hard... Maybe civ5 is more up your alley

that raises even more questions

you're really eager to share with everyone how good you are at singleplayer games designed with the sole purpose of being beaten in mind. yet you're really bad at reading and comprehending anything you read. try harder and you might understand this time that we're not complaining about difficulty.

People who watch other people play video games are boring charisma vacuums too.

>Why? Gamer cred?
That's the purpose of the whole "send in your failed battles and shit" vids he does. People want to see him win where they know others have failed.
All in all he's good for a quick laugh just because of all the shit he gets sent and the way he'll slag off but watching the dude actually play WHII is boring micro management. I'd rather play the game.

Flexing on vidya prowess is arguably the most pathetic thing one can do. And in an anonymous board nonetheless.

I dunno, I learned a lot from Legend. Mostly how to cheese but some impactful small things about campaigns in general too.

You could have learned that by opening the tw general for ,5 minures

But I don't want to be associated with that shithole.

>being associated with an anonymous imagebord's general
only possible if you record yourself browsing it

But you're ok with being associated with that Aussie?

it's a good concept but every single battle is the same cheese abuse, people might as well download a trainer and get on with it themselves if the only thing that matters is winning no matter how.

proof that this place is rife with fags

welcome to competitive gaming

hes legit on the spectrum, he thinks hes some sort of totalwar savant by exploiting the games shitty ai and cheesing with certain unit types/tactics

mrsmartdonkey is a much better & smarter player of totalwar games
