I only just saw this, as I was going through some major sleep madness last night and didn't want to spoil the video for myself.
One reason I really like this guy is that he stays grounded. Like yes, he covered an unverified claim, but he made a point to stop the video and mention that, and explained why he was covering said claim. He's a really good journalist.
He also sums up the situation pretty well. It is really hard to stay optimistic in the face of everything that's happened. How such a big company has managed to thoroughly crap itself in one single month is insane, and just seeing how they're re-arranging their company and trying to get past an anti-gambling bill to continue with their gambling machines is depressing and frustrating.
I've been following this issue a whole lot recently, so I don't think this video has hit me as hard as it usually would. But this was a pretty good video in general, as usual.
I think another reason the Bunnyhop videos are so great is that, even if they remain grounded, they manage to do humor at all the right places without going too far with it. It's kind of an issue the earlier videos had, funnily enough.
"Curry killed the pussy hoping that I could kill the hate in you" - Curry, D. "TABOO | TA13OO." TA13OO, PH, 2018George posted a video
about the whole paid mod fiasco.
I remember seeing him on Twitter when all of this went down, and he was livid. The video didn't disappoint - this is probably the angriest video on his channel that I've seen.
I thought that paid mods was a good concept, even with the greedy and unreasonable 75% cut. After seeing this video, I have much less faith in the modding community.

People should be more supportive to hard-working modders and use donations more (Like in Nexus, it's implemented now!). As an alternative they can also add a "Name Your Price" or "Support Mod" option in Steam Workshop, it can't be worse. Like you Bethesda, remain respective to your modding community and don't try to get money out of crap you don't work on, because you should be fixing your games instead!

I now go by Graf von Tirol.Seriously, fuck Konami! George has my sympathy and support, it's unbelivebale how much Konami doesn't care anymore, bit I guess for them, it was Tuesday. Hell, Castlevania's producer is actually pissed off now
.
Okay, it's back now.
But seriously, Konami? Continuing to shoot themselves in the foot...

I now go by Graf von Tirol.Of all the game footage to nitpick, they chose Metal Gear Rising? That's not even an in-house developed game - I mean it's still theirs of course, but the work itself was done by Platinum Games as contractors like Unit 8 with The Phantom Pain. It'd make a bit more sense claiming The Phantom Pain or P.T., at least it would have been consistent with their behavior. Now it looks even more obvious that they were reaching when they filed the claim.

Super Bunnyhop is a Youtube channel that specializes in video games. Hosted by George Weidman, videos range from reviews of current and retro games to thoughtful opinion pieces on video game trends or recent controversies. Think the polar opposite of Yahtzee - instead of fast-paced, vulgar humor, Super Bunnyhop specializes in long discussions and logical arguments. That's not to discredit Yahtzee, he's an entertainer first and foremost after all - it's just that Super Bunnyhop really feels like his polar opposite in almost every way.
A major aspect of the show is George's calm, well thought out arguments. Videos are usually 10 minutes or longer, with some videos spanning up to 40 minutes in length. Seriously, he has a video discussing Metal Gear Solid 2 for 35 minutes and it's amazing. Topics he's covered range from THQ's closure and the importance of modding in video games to internet caps affecting online gaming and framerates that exceed the 60fps industry standard.
Here's his analysis of THQ's fall. He really gets into detail about how everything went pear-shaped.
