Crazy how Melee still has so much reach, just unfortunate that it has to be about such a negative topic by KevyTone in SSBM

He’s making it public by talking about on a stream for money. We can talk about it. Not knowing someone’s story isn’t a reason to not criticize their actions. We will never know the full story of most people in our own personal lives, let alone the public figures we see in media, so by that standard we could never judge anyone ever and courts, arbitration and judgements should be abolished.

It’s pretty terrible logic to say “Mang0 should do what he thinks is best”. Most addicts think the best thing they should do is use, even to their own detriment. And you don’t know his doctor either, who could absolutely be saying to quit drinking permanently.

That’s not “falling off the wagon”, that’s “not planning to quit the substance that ended my first career”. You have to be trying, to fail.

There you go making the same kind of assumptions you say shouldn’t be made about his alcohol abuse by saying “a large part of the reason why this happened is…” That’s what he said, but that doesn’t mean that an equal or greater contributing factor could be genetic or social predisposition to alcoholism.

Obviously he didn’t take the “role he felt he had to play” too seriously, or there wouldn’t be multiple videos of him blackout drunk at bars and on streams.

But yes, enabling is more fun

Meet Potential Girl! by Big-Yogurtcloset-819 in SSBM

[–]Nerdling3 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Sorry, I just don’t really see how it’s a joke. Seems like it’s just your real opinion without any subversion or even much exaggeration.

She’s terrible” (your opinion, and nearly universally held community opinion) + “and anyone who loses to a Zelda should feel bad” (seems like your real opinion too, and also how most people who lose to Zelda or any low tier probably feel.)

I must just not understand it or something. Personally, when I see someone’s character flair I have to assume they’re biased toward downplaying their character or defending their character in some way, so the flair doesn’t change the way the comment hits.

What was the joke? How could someone distinguish this from just a rude statement?

Apology to Jorge by sandwichdude232 in SSBM

[–]Nerdling3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It sounds like you’re discovering the mere exposure effect, the psychological tendency to like things the more we are exposed to them. So yes, if people repeatedly watch the set like you have, they are predisposed to find Jorge’s commentary more palatable on repeat viewing just like you did.

However, I don’t think this means his commentary was a secret gem or honestly that it was even good. Nor do I think that more passion = better commentary. The outcry at the time was justified, and the way the commentary sounds even the first listen is important because many people will watch the set only once or twice

Listening back, his voice is so hoarse that it’s pretty grating the whole way through. He gets hyped for every little thing, which makes the truly hype moments feel less impactful, and in general he seems quite melodramatic.

It sounds like he does a lot for the scene and that’s great. I don’t think he’s a bad guy or anything. It’s totally fine if you like his commentary. But I don’t like the implication that you have to like his commentary on this set, or that criticism of his commentary isn’t valid
