Nothing much new here but I think he's correct in most of what he says.
You could said the same thing for EA's battlefront II 2 years ago. It's gonna make them some money so why complain?Isn’t Pokémon the most profitable franchise in the world? Like even more than Star Wars and Marvel?
But LOL some rando youtube gonna call them out on their business model sure
Trash from a consumer point.Isn’t Pokémon the most profitable franchise in the world? Like even more than Star Wars and Marvel?
But LOL some rando youtube gonna call them out on their business model sure
How can you even call trash a business model who make BILLIONS with cheap as fuck copypaste games??
It's the smartest model of business possible in this planet ffs...
Whats your point? You can be a rip off and the most profitable.Isn’t Pokémon the most profitable franchise in the world?....

I just hate the sound of his voice.

Why do we keep acknowledging this guy? His entire schtick is just bitching about anything and everything. It got old years ago.
Guys he isn't saying the business model is shit as in "it's bad for business", he is saying he thinks the business model is shit for consumers with the whole 2 versions thing, arguing that if Activision or EA tried to pull the same stunt with one of their modern games they'd probably get a lot of shit for it.

Totally agree. They all try to pretend, hide or feels like its no big deal, but Pokemon gets a free pass on basically everything.
Again, the thread is one big game of Spot Who Didn't Even Watch the Video.
I support you not giving him attention.All this guy does is to provoke and make bullshit statements.
Can we PLEASE stop giving this attention whore what he wants - the attention?
So you literally came into this thread to bitch is what you're saying?Why would anyone watch a Jim Sterling video.
I actually feel that way about Angry Joe in fairness. At least I don't have to adjust the volume every 5 minutes for Jim. Joe ROARS into the mic every change he gets.Oh God, this so much. I mean, it's like he purposefully sounds whiny and annoying. At least Angry Joe most of the time manages to convey sincere disappointment in videos like Ride to Hell, Mindjack or Fallout 76. But Sterling's persona reeks of pretense and falsehood. It's annoying to listen and watch.
If he talked like an actual human being and not like a high-pitched snotty bitch of a man, I'd have respected his work a whole lot more.
I don't think it's ever too late to stand up for consumer interests.However, this is not new and everybody accepted that... Like 30 years ago or something... Life goes on
Not really in this case.I don't think it's ever too late to stand up for consumer interests.
Not really in this case.
The consumers like that.... even if it's not the ideal, it's just the way it is, they enjoy it. I think it's a little too pretentious of Sterling to come out and say: Hey people! You guys are getting scammed! Nintendo(or EA) is shit!!! How you didn't noticed that!
Most people can understand that those things are silly, but they enjoy buying packs or playing two versions of the same game... if they didn't they would not buy them. People are not that dumb....
In this case, about the DLC.... if consumers think it's not worth it, they will not buy it and Nintendo won't do the same thing again. No need for an youtuber telling people to be outraged or not.... I think.
It's a thing at the moment to trash Pokemon, garbage from all over the world is joining the bandwagon.Isn’t Pokémon the most profitable franchise in the world? Like even more than Star Wars and Marvel?
But LOL some rando youtube gonna call them out on their business model sure
Yes you are. More like: "Youtuber doesn't have interestings to say, so he makes videos about outrages and call consumers dumb because they were not smart as he to notice those evil thingies". That's Sterling gimmick. That's all I am saying.... I don't even play Pokemon so I don't have a horse in this race... I don't even know why I posted on this thread... too tired... Good night (or day).Don't speak out against the status quo and/or your only voice should be your wallet? Am I misreading you?
Especially in Sword and Shield. As far as I can tell, the only things that are actually exclusive are the box legendaries and 2 gym leaders since you can catch everything in Max Raid battles.Buying both versions of the game is dumb. Even if you love Pokemon.
All this guy does is to provoke and make bullshit statements.

People being upset about the season pass were bitching about SW/SH long before the games even came out, likely.Guys he isn't saying the business model is shit as in "it's bad for business", he is saying he thinks the business model is shit for consumers with the whole 2 versions thing, arguing that if Activision or EA tried to pull the same stunt with one of their modern games they'd probably get a lot of shit for it.
The whole rant starts because he is surprised about people being upset about the season pass since it's still better than their old tactic of locking content to a third full priced release which was 90% the same game again.
