A video on Jaffe's youtube channel in regards to some of the critisism Drawn to Death has taken on polygon and giantbombs comment section.

Jaffe being Jaffe

 

[FluxWaveZ]

Oh boy...

 

[TheSeks]

The Roger Klotz comment slayed me.

 

[Naughty_Doge]

Classy.

 

[NexusCell]

Well, it is Jaffe

 

[Cheat Code]

Jaffe gonna Jaffe.

 

[Lethe82]

In response I'm sure they'll find a way to try and frame Drawn to Death as problematic.

 

[Jachaos]

Well the game looks interesting. Splatoon does interest me more, but I can have interest in more than one game.

 

[MrJonnyBigBoss]

This response is somewhere between 0 and Phil Fish.

 

[Lambtron]

In response I'm sure they'll find a way to try and frame Drawn to Death as problematic.

I mean I think it looking like a low-rent Anarchy Reigns is pretty problematic.

It wasn't polygon themselves. Just their commenters.

They probably will find it problematic anyway. They find everything problematic nowadays, but not because of this.

Game plays amazing with four players. Very tight and intimate with a smooth game flow. I played a bunch at PSX and wrote detailed impressions here. It's a game people really need to try before judging it, if only because it's so damn different. I had a blast and barely scratched the surface of the mechanics.

 

[a.wd]

I'm not digging the game the art or playstyle but #gofuckyourself? Really?

 

[Dinjooh]

I had expected far worse from Jaffe.

 

[cheesekao]

I fail to see how a shooter looks like a brawler. If you're talking about artstyle then you must be referring to madworld.

A few of the guys on the bombcast said way worse shit about the game this week.

 

[OneUh8]

I was surprised but then really not surprised GB shit on it. I thought the game looked awesome and is very original in many ways. Very much looking forward to it.

 

[Skux]

Pretty clever idea actually. Would be funny if the marketing used quotes from trolls to sell the game.

 

[Abriael]

I would say that it's a close to appropriate response to the habit of commenting very dismissively while knowing very little about a game.

 

[RandyBobandy]

He has the thinnest skin ever

 

[Lethe82]

We don't achieve 100% Fish until Jaffe tells someone to choke to death on his cock.

 

[GeoramA]

Agreed. No reason for the hashtag.

 

[DidntKnowJack]

Well hey. He found an amusing way to say 'go fuck yourself.' I have no problem with this.

 

[fuzzyreactor]

Yea, kind of agree with jaffe. If you don't like arena shooters why even comment about the quality of the game.

 

[rav]

All I can think about:

 

[Intheflorsh]

He can dish it out...

 

[Revolutionary]

I'm not digging the game the art or playstyle but #gofuckyourself? Really?

'tis the season!

 

[enzo_gt]

Agreed. No reason for the hashtag.

I'm offended. There is always a reason to hashtag. #IDisagreeWithYou

 

[Prelude.]

Thanks for spoiling the video, OP.

 

[The Xtortionist]

Yea, kind of agree with jaffe. If you don't like arena shooters why even comment about the quality of the game.

The game is pretty unique even among arena shooters. Low player count, very high player health, and different characters to pick from that each have numerous quirks.

 

[Schryver]

Seems like a relatively playful way to generate some press for the game lol. I like it

 

[Mushroomer25]

Glad to see Jaffe is representative of himself in his art.

But honestly, I can't say I expected anything different. The entire tone of the game is super-hardcore, over-the-top, too-edgy-to-be-believed. It's not the right move for the game's branding campaign to step in & say "thanks for the constructive criticism".

 

[Superflat]

This didn't come off like a real sore/angry response like I was expecting from some comments made here. I daresay it was kinda funny.

 

[Abriael]

You know what?

I find it funny that developers are expected to take all kind of abuse and disrespect for their work, but once they throw a F word in response there are some that feel outraged or displeased.

I guess some like to dish it but not to take it. And I'm not talking about Jaffe.

 

[Skux]

I like the low player count. Too many players and it just becomes a mindless brawl. With fewer numbers you really have a chance to outthink your opponents by predicting their location, weapon drops, etc.

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

That's actually pretty harmless.

 

[CastorTroy]

I kinda feel like David Jaffe is actually Tom Hanks from BIG. Just a 13 year old in a 43 year old's body.

 

[Alec]

Seems pretty tongue in cheek to me.

I think the game looks awesome.

 

[Chandler X Bing]

I actually think this is a pretty cool thing and that he's a pretty cool guy for making this video.

 

[jackissocool]

Seems pretty tongue in cheek to me.

I think the game looks awesome.

[I H8 Memes]

I'm ok with this. As long as you arent threatening to assault or kill anybody then people can say what they want. I'm older though and not as thin skinned as todays generation though.

 

[mattp]

He has the thinnest skin ever

ehh
this just seems like harmless joking around
you guys take stuff too seriously

 

[Circle Jerk]

Then what are you talking about

 

[CambriaRising]

The game looks shitty to a lot of people. The gb staff trashed it on the bombcast as well.

People are going to have opinions about a game that showed very poorly. Get over it.

 

[Occam]

Humor, how does it work?

I think the video is funny.
(I also don't suffer from Political Correctitis.)

 

[Mechanized]

Lol. I found that funny.

 

[Uncle Rupee]

 

[Brian_FETO]

This is a good response to "hate" comments. Funny and harmless.

Plus, it fits the tone of the game (if I'm not mistaken, the game itself says FUCK YOU when you kill/get killed)

Spoiler

Obligatory "Twisted Metal lives on in Drawn To Death" comment

 

[Rogue_Ledr]

I like the low player count. Too many players and it just becomes a mindless brawl. With fewer numbers you really have a chance to outthink your opponents by predicting their location, weapon drops, etc.

Gotta disagree.

That is the one thing I don't like about this.

I prefer games with bigger battles.

I wish Jaffe would up the player count. That way people could decide how big or small they want battles to be.

 

[Vire]

On the scale of 1 to Jaffe, this ranks on the relatively tame side. I'm not going to get up in arms over this, but I still don't like him.
