History DethroningMoment / ZeroPunctuation

* Please no HePannedItNowHeSucks. Someone having a different opinion than you is not nearly a good enough justification for something being seen as stupid or offensive.

* Tropers/{{baeraad555}}: For me, it was him calling Creator/JKRowling a cunt in his ''VideoGame/HogwartsLegacy'' review. Which is a bit weird, because I don't even like Rowling or her books - in fact, back when she was the hottest I was part of the vocal minority of Potter-haters. But, like her or not, and agree with her [=TERF=] views or not, she's made it pretty clear that those views come from a place of her being a domestic abuse survivor who is intensely uncomfortable with male-bodied people invading women's spaces. So, I freely admit that I'm terribly un-woke, but when did it become okay to call women cunts for being afraid of being beaten or raped? And no, I'm not saying I agree with Rowling ''either,'' but I am saying that there's a non-obvious question about which group of people deserves how much compassion and understanding in this situation, and where the line between one group's right to feel safe and comfortable and the other group's should be drawn. But of course admitting the existance of legitimate conflicts of interests and non-clear-cut answers would get in the way of Yahtzee's default stance of "it sickens me that you're too dumb to realise I'm completely right." I don't know if he was always like that or if he's just turned more lazily self-righteous with age, but either way it's grinding on my last nerve now.

* Explain why it's a DarthWiki/DethroningMomentOfSuck.

* Tropers/CerotechOmega: Yahtzee's handling of E3 2014 was kind of lame in and of itself, but his vitriol against (surprise, surprise) Nintendo shows that his hay parachute has fallen apart, and he's grasping at individual straws just to save face. His primary constituents are that Nintendo wanks the Mario and Zelda franchises relentlessly, whilst the majority of the show was taken by stellar entries like ''VideoGame/CodeNameSteam'', ''VideoGame/{{Splatoon}}'', ''VideoGame/YoshisWoollyWorld'', ''VideoGame/XenobladeChroniclesX'', and more, with only ''Splatoon'' getting a bare mention by him; he complains about the overload of cinematic cutscenes with nary a demo, whereas the latter was the entirety of Nintendo's performance, with every automated sequence being in-engine; and he omits the Treehouse completely, where the fans got to see more of these lovely games in action. Bad enough on its own, but when added to his history of anti-Nintendo sentiment, it paints a very ugly picture on how much of a hypocrite he's become. Ben Croshaw, do the world a favor and slice the "professional" out of your "professional troll" title if this is how you're going to be.

* SickBritKid: For this troper, it was the beginning of his Call of Duty: Black Ops review. After bitching about how "worthless" America was in his Splinter Cell: Conviction review, Yahtzee then used the first few minutes of his Black Ops review to compare America to Twitards because of all of the jingoistic war games based on a hypothetical America-being-invaded-by-Russia scenario.

* Skunkbrains: His miitopia review is the lowest effort piece of garbage I think I've ever seen. He doesn't even bother customising his characters, instead opting for the random character button, then complains about how the bonding system is boring. Well maybe if you bothered making interesting characters, or even just searched up things you think is interesting you'd have a better time. Don't forget about how he whines about RNG food preferences screwing over his characters, when you can change and swap classes in the late game, and the fact forcefeeding them the food can still work.

* Tropers{{darksteel)): Putting ''VideoGame/TheLastOfUs2'' as the #1 worst game of 2020 on his "Best, Worst and Blandest of 2020" list was the first time where I got the sense that Yahtzee wasn't truly being honest with his opinion and was exaggerating solely to appeal to a certain crowd(specifically the TLOU2 haters as the Escapist forums are loaded with toxic trolls hating on the game for shallow reasons)as in his actual review of the game he did actually have genuinely nice things to say about the game and the review sounded perfectly reasonable(aside from the dumb joke at the end about Ellie being [[UnfortunateImplications "turned gay]] guessing Yahtzee never played the "Left Behind" DLC) so it would've made sense for Yahtz to put in on the bland list or just kinda ignore like it he did with ''VideoGame/Borderlands3'' but his bullshit explanation for putting the game at #1 on his worst list and his BlatantLies as to why it deserved to be on there in spite of him praising it and not sounding remotely as negative towards it in the actual review as he did to any of his other #1 worst picks in previous years really soured my opinion on him as a whole and makes me much less trusting of his opinions since then.
