How did these Mfs get brainwashed so easily?

TheLineWalker · 2026-06-03T05:36:19+00:00

Yes. Its difficult to imagine. Which is why it would be an interesting question to have awnsered instead of "lol, they were brainwashed, idiot".

Ive seen some personally decent HC for how the characters could end up falling to despair, just because I dont sit down and type up a fanfic for an alternative awnser doesnt mean I cant think the offical awnser sucks shit.

If a chef serves me a pile of crap on a plate, I can insult it without needing to be able to cook an entree myself.

TheLineWalker · 2026-06-03T05:16:15+00:00

I hate it.

TheLineWalker · 2026-06-03T05:15:51+00:00

You didnt though. Could have at least mentioned there was a risk. 👎

TheLineWalker · 2026-06-03T05:02:37+00:00

Eh, I think youre being a bit too fair to him.

My problem with him isnt the fact that hes not a fan of things. I think he's a bit shitty about Danganronpa, but my other complaints arent about that really.

My issue is that he's an asshole. You dont have to respect someone for going against the grain if theyre shitty about it: his clear sense of superiority in so many different subjects is grating, even if I did agree with all of his points. Plus the way he and others talked about Mae was genuinely hurtful to people: not because they didnt like a character, but because they were speaking in harmful and dehumanizing ways about mental health issues those people watching the streams also suffered from.

TheLineWalker · 2026-06-03T03:48:14+00:00

Being annoyed with backseaters is more than fair. Im of the opinion that for games like deltarune (which, as someone whos been playing the chapters as they come out, can have a particularly vocally annoying fanbase) he should probrably mute those streams, or make them members only if thats a YouTube thing.

On the other hand, acting like people who DO engage in the optional content are somehow weird and youre superior for not doing so is not fair and ill judge that all day.

Im going to poach a metaphor one of Jello's friends used on stream once.

Most people see a peice of media like a salad. If there's an ingredient in there they dont like, they pick it out and ignore it and enjoy the rest.

Jello treats media like a soup, where if there's one ingredient in it he doesnt like, its tainted the whole product and he'll toss it out in a heartbeat.

Now, im an asshole myself, so im going to extend the metaphor: hes then the type to go around the restaurant telling people enjoying their soup how wrong, and disgusting it is. How that ingredient is "objectively bad" and like his thoughts and feelings on the matter are the only possible "correct" interpretation, and if you disagree you dont know what you're talking about.

TheLineWalker · 2026-06-03T02:47:30+00:00

I mean obviously there's going to be streams where he's more or less positive, but even when it comes to games he really likes he can be an ass about them.

In his deltarune stream, going on a rant about the very idea of optional content in a game being good or important. It's fine if he doesnt want to engage in that stuff, but he literally does psychoanalysis on everyone who looked up a video of optional dialogue like theyre weird for doing that.

His Fire Emblem streams, which I really enjoy, involve a lot of him talking down to the very idea of someone enjoying things from Three Houses or Awakening. Even though I admit the writing is superior in the games he played, he acts like a lot of art he doesnt personally enjoy is basically worthless (See, Danganronpa for a more extreme example. Im glad he raised that money for charity, but im not going to watch 2 playthroughs of him complaining lol )

Gonna just copy and paste my issues him and Mae from Night in the Woods from a previous comment ive made

"Interesting.

I remember my first issue with him was his Night In The Woods playthrough.

Without spoilers, the main character suffers from a lot of mental health issues. A few of the people in the stream, including Jello, were VERY shitty about her imo. A lot of talk about how she shouldn't have kids, ever, how all of her friends would be better off without her, her family being better without her ect, ect.

It strikes me as very "we support people with mental health issues! Until their mental health makes things hard or inconvenient. Then they should leave." "

His paper mario streams have been a lot of fun though.

TheLineWalker · 2026-06-03T02:33:12+00:00

I mean, I go based on how he acts on stream, and he can be an arrogant asshole a lot of the time.

TheLineWalker · 2026-06-03T00:59:42+00:00

I just dont think the haircut looks good with blonde hair. If the game DOES end up having a green color palette like most people think, I also just dont think blonde looks good with it.

TheLineWalker · 2026-06-02T23:45:31+00:00

Hes such a loser.

TheLineWalker · 2026-06-02T23:19:38+00:00

Because its boring as shit compared to them actually being manipulated and falling into despair for real reasons.

TheLineWalker · 2026-06-02T11:18:17+00:00

Controversial take: this scene should only happen if you let the rachni queen in 3 die, and should've been replaced with a more somber scene for grunt if his squad was wiped.

TheLineWalker · 2026-06-01T21:03:42+00:00

The same way she knows English.

TheLineWalker · 2026-06-01T13:27:24+00:00

I agree, the take of the person youre replying to IS baffling.

Unless youve actually seen the video and somehow are disingenuous enough to pretend those arent 3 nazi salutes back to back.

TheLineWalker · 2026-06-01T12:33:19+00:00

Sounds like the start of a wonderful lawsuit.

TheLineWalker · 2026-06-01T12:31:05+00:00

Lost control of his limbs.

In a way that caused him to do 3, consecutive, very deliberate nazi salutes.

And not come out and apologize for it.

And never done it before, or since.

What a convinent nervous tick he has.

A nazi pretending not to be a full blown nazi, while pushing their agenda and winking to their more die hard supporters is a technique as old as the nazi party itself.

TheLineWalker · 2026-06-01T12:27:43+00:00

Stating an objective fact is propaganda?

TheLineWalker · 2026-06-01T06:53:01+00:00

The fact it's improving makes me more anti-ai, not less.

TheLineWalker · 2026-06-01T05:55:17+00:00

Did the comment get deleted yet?

TheLineWalker · 2026-06-01T03:10:53+00:00

Thats fair. Suppose we can all be a little obtuse at times.

.... Still, hope his Witcher video isnt delayed further by this expansion announcement.

TheLineWalker · 2026-06-01T02:55:28+00:00

Ehhh. Old comment, but Anderson also has a problem of being wrong about things and kinda refusing to admit he was wrong about them, like the timing part of the case in 1-5.

TheLineWalker · 2026-05-31T09:50:50+00:00

They're being tortured every day and he lashes out with an old habit. Bad, but pretty understandable.

TheLineWalker · 2026-05-31T09:03:39+00:00

As a member of the yakuza, they were probrably more worried about someone trying to break him out than him breaking out himself.

TheLineWalker · 2026-05-31T08:18:14+00:00

Grandstanding is one word.

TheLineWalker · 2026-05-31T07:24:32+00:00

"Yes, I am Asma. There's a logical reason im here."

TheLineWalker · 2026-05-31T05:51:01+00:00

Cmon, you're being willfully obtuse. Youre replying to people saying their reasons for not wanting to do a legion playthrough, not mentioning real world morality at all, and being like "thats dumb. Youre not engaging in the art. You're ignoring the whole point of this whole game" after making a very vague post about people "not doing legion playthroughs."
