History Awesome / JoshScorcher

** Even when the recording was leaked to the general public before they could present it to police and the Hatedom used this as an opportunity to [[{{Misblamed}} attack and blame anyone even associated with Toon for Toon's crimes]], including those ''[[InsaneTrollLogic either victimised by him or actively working to expose him]]'' AND others made Josh and his work a direct target for personal reasons, Josh remained calm and released an open and evenly-toned video explaining the situation and even delivering a BRUTAL but well deserved TheReasonYouSuckSpeech towards Toon in the process.

*** Meta-wise, disaster actually struck Josh as he lost some of his equipments due to some unforeseen events of his apartment running out of lease. Therefore, right on the beginning and even the trailer, Josh, unlike all these other companies have been doing... comes clean and states that there will be a dip in quality in the video. Aside of a dip in audio as well as how the interlude segment looked justifiably very bare-boned, Josh still delivered the video exceptionally well that one may wonder what the video would look like if he wasn't being held back with those circumstances, and he walks the talks that the companies tend to fail to do: If you have some difficulties that will affect your product, ''be transparent about it''.

* Being very open about his conservative views. [[Administrivia/RuleOfCautiousEditingJudgement Regardless of your thoughts on the subject,]] it takes big brass ones to go onto the Internet, especially a website like Tumblr, and in no way try to hide being conservative but still be polite about it.

** When Josh gets to the moment where Lily stated [[CriticalResearchFailure he wasn't a real Marine because he was in the Marine Band,]] he calmly refuted that claim, not only explaining the people in the Marine Band still go through boot camp, get trained for combat, and even get deployed and serve tours overseas, but also pointing out how a quick Google search would've had plenty of evidence to the contrary.

* The fact that Josh is both ready and willing to [[FanDumb chew out his fans]] when they do something stupid. Mostly when they go after people he tries to poke fun at.

--->"...First of all... how dare you hate Best Pony? Best Pony does everything best. That’s why they’re Best Pony. Second, '''''HOW DARE YOU MAKE BEST PONY CRY?!'''''"

*** For these Fails video, Josh actually takes a break and not just call out big-name video game companies, ''[[WhatTheHellHero he calls out the fandom that sometimes adds oil to the fire]]''. Like justifying piracy for the highly acclaimed ''VideoGame/MetroidDread'' due to unwilling to pay money, or the worst of all: The bullying and doxxing of [[VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddys Scott Cawthon]] to the point of retirement just because he didn't align to their ideology. Even if Josh most likely isn't holding onto the same ideology.

** Meta-wise, the 2021 Fails follows up, but here's what makes it even more awesome:

* The song "Rules of Nature" playing as he executes the [[spoiler:last attack on Roxas during the [=KHII=] Final Mix LP.]] Watch it [[https://youtu.be/xmwwkGpLarM?t=3m13s here]]

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=otfxmQkV5ok A Firebrand Magic Lesson]] with Lightning Bliss. For both of them; Firebrand proves to be a skilled fighter and teacher, while Bliss shows greater magical control than she has before. In the end, [[spoiler:his taunts turn out to be intended to help motivate Bliss, and things end relatively well compared to Bliss's other magic lessons. He also notes that she did learn some things.]] The lesson is visually spectacular too.

* A Huge moment that also must be shared with British Ninja, but them in real life gathering the evidence on all of Toon's crimes and forcing Toon into a confession that josh then recorded to be used as further evidence against Toon. All while doing their absolute best to keep victims names private and trying to keep the rest of the community from breaking down. If it weren't for them, Toon would still be manipulating people right now.

* Being very open about his conservative views. [[Administrivia/RuleOfCautiousEditingJudgement Regardless of your thoughts on the subject,]] it takes big brass ones to go onto the Internet, especially a website like Tumblr, and in no way try to hide being conservative but still be polite about it. (It helps that he isn't the bigoted, Bible-thumping type of right-wing that people stereotype the term as.)

--> '''Josh''': Konami is run by [[Franchise/HarryPotter Dolores Umbridge]] and [[Film/{{Matilda}} Agatha Trunchbull]] combined together and a sacrifice by [[WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons Mr. Burns]] on Mount Orwell!

* His [[Main/BigDamnHeroes entrance]] at the end of {{The Autarch}}'s "Top 25 Boss Battles in Video Games" video certainly qualifies.

** The Top 10 Nintendo Fails also did not disappoint, with both Josh and his guest Green Scorpion fairly picking part Nintendo’s mistakes. The video itself also serves as a moment of awesome for Nintendo; Josh and Green Scorpion naturally make fun of them, but both are noticeably respectful and polite to Nintendo. It especially stands out with how strictly Josh treated every game company before. It shows how much right they find Nintendo has done that they treat it more genially, Josh even goes so far as to admit sometimes Nintendo’s mistakes tend to help the industry.

* After ''much'' teasing, the promised moment comes at the end of the Valve Fails video. Josh suddenly gets put into a spotlight and the screen started to slowly turn orange. And Josh's eyes widen as he saw the face of [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros Mario]] made of fire. Top 10 Nintendo Fails is coming at March 15th 2020. Does this sound familiar to you? Indeed, that was done in style of the reveal/teaser trailer of ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosUltimate'', and Josh pulled it off with good editing and camera works.

** And as a reminder, Josh also called the hell out of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SxBdVuwd_vk&t=3s Microsoft]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kfAK6JsNuZ8 Ubisoft]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HH70VZFYyGQ Bethesda]]. And even ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cYe240dedEc SquareEnix]]'', which housed [[Franchise/KingdomHearts one of his most beloved franchises ever.]] Just because they made that doesn't mean Josh will exempt on such calling out if he spots bullshits amongst them (which we're sure Square had plenty). And throughout the series, starting from Ubisoft, Josh kept teasing that eventually he'll do a 'fail' list for Creator/{{Nintendo}}. Yes, just because one is some sort of SacredCow amongst video games doesn't mean Josh would exclude that too.

** When it comes to Blizzard, Josh has a lot to say about the story direction of ''VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft''. But since he knows how subjective it is, he decided to explain that via texts in the video. And it shows how much of a sane, neutral fan of WOW he was; he's ''not'' amused with how much Sylvanas AND the Horde has been reduced into a cartoonish evil FemmeFatale (or 'diet-Arthas', as he coined too), comparing that WOW was intriguing in the first place because it looked like World War I between Britain and Germany, where both sides did terrible things, and yet the latter story made it look like World War II Britain and Germany, at cost of the Horde being made to look like the latter (which was always the bad party). Josh is more of an Alliance player, by the way, but he expressed his opinions in a most neutral and eloquent way that it may distract you from the actual meat of his spoken parts of how flawed ''Battle for Azeroth'' was (those concerned with the gameplay would definitely enjoy his ripping, though)
