From the Angry Joe Livestream
Agreed, so I took (probably wasted) my time to show an example of not honest criticism and observation.
-----------------------------------------------
The following is dialog from Joe during one of their streams.
They're playing the game and have to get through a gate. I would assume Joe has put the time into this game to know this area by now. Right?
Joe: "Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat?!"
Joe: "This gaaaame! (laughing) This game!! (laughing)"
(pause while acting annoyed by game and rubbing face/head)
Joe: "Stupid fucking invisible walls! That's hilarious."
(lets slow that down)
Invisible walls...right Joe?
On the fourth try they finally get through the gate with the time freeze/blast (the easiest "puzzle" in the game).
Now...I guess we find out Joe HASN'T put any time into this area...
Joe: "But still! He didn't use the RIIIIIGHT...He didn't use the riiight (does quotation fingers) time power." (Continues implying you can only do things one way) "You have to use the riiiight time power."
Joe: (responding to character's conversation) "No you can't, you can't control time...what do you think this is Quantum Break?" (after all, you can only do things one way)
------------------
Hmmm, so do these play sessions influence Joe's review? Did Joe actually play these sections and figure out there isn't just one way? Did he figure out that these invisible walls were often him or other players with him not pulling things off correctly?
Let us go fire up the game..I.. I assume Joe has played that part (multiple times). The way he's acting these invisible walls and only "one way" to do things has to be right. Why would he keep harping on it?
Here we go..
..imagine that...very first try, with the "wrooong" time power, that you apparently can't use. Boy, that invisible wall and only one way to do things sure messed me up.
Lets try screwing around now. Lets see if that "invisible wall" Joe moaned, and overeacted about ever gets in my way.
Surely I couldn't go through the gate multiple times with multiple powers even. Surely you can only go through the gate one way...I mean..there has to be an invisible wall there at some point.
(shrug..haha)
Anyway, this is just one of multiple situations where comments he's made isn't accurate. Not everything he talks about is off-base, but his stuff makes me do some double takes when I know for a fact what he's saying is not right.
I like a challenge. He's right on a lot of his points...but you know what...he's also a showman..and at times disingenuous.
