Dean Takahashi is now boasting about his incompetence as a game

>>389965372
the nigger is making a joke about himself piss off dumbass

As long as they're not actually dumbing it down because he has the motor skills of a drunk gorilla, then I'm alright.

board
about
electronic
celebrities

who?

because he got away with it for 18 years
he has the cushiest job in the world and he doesn't even like video games

>>389965372
Is that actually boasting? I think it's about bringing further attention to his previous ineptiveness as an attempt at humour.

>>389965448
He actually owed up his lack of basic motor skills in a response article, along the traditional journo propaganda of turning everyone and everything into a boogeyman. Hapas, not even once.

>>389965594
if you check his twitter he also talked about wanting to be on clueless gamer the dude is just joking about this shit

It'd be so funny if he actually ends up killing himself.

Everybody has bad days, come on. He's not that bad in all the games he's played.
The dude has been in industry for 18 years, and only examples people can think of him being horrible are Mass Effect, Cuphead and I think there was a third one too. This isn't like Polygon idiots who consistently make an ass out of themselves, 18 years is plenty of time to shit a bed few times.

Remember that SJWs blow things that don't matter out of proportion and get mad over nothing and are unreasonable as fuck but we're totally not like that.

>>389966675
Sure, that's fair. What isn't is how he handled this, basically throwing a hissy fit rather than just coming out and saying he fucked up. He went on an asinine crusade because the tutorial was "too hard", that's the issue people have here, not the fact that a reviewer played poorly that one time.

The first three are just from opening the original video that Venturebeat uploaded. Not sure why you're in the thread trying to raise an argument if you have no prior knowledge of this. Venturebeat made a comment themselves on the video with several hundred replies talking about elitism, how Cuphead is hard, how it's not mario, and for other people to do better. You can also see Venturebeat responding to several people in the comments both in that video, and in the one hour video they made defending Dean.
https://youtu.be/VDjIuMYemfI

is the hour long video. Don't think you need the initial. Dean also did articles on VentureBeat talking about how hard the game is and how the people calling him out are Trump supporters and GGers

yeah, this moron got people fired for sure

>>389965372
Why are you faggots still giving him attention

>>389968937
Because in his own words his "ineptitude led to change."

>>389968845
Dean is talking in the video I linked, wrote articles himself on it, and has responded in first person to several comments. It was your own misinterpretation if you took what I posted as saying that none of it can be seen as coming directly from Dean. Besides that, comments from Venturebeat are still relevant as they are defending him and people disagree with their defense. Again, that's on top of he himself repeating what they say.

Again, not sure why you're disagreeing. It's all there. Read it and tell me where you disagree. If you were actually checking the evidence, you would see Dean saying it. Are you disagreeing for the sake of disagreeing?

>>389965372
Okay. So which way is it? Is it okay for gaming journalists to be bad at games while still reviewing them, because it won't change our enjoyment of the games? Or, do gaming journalists incompetence highlight points in games where things can be streamlined for more casual players?

Fucking hell. When a journalist writes articles about something within their field readers rightfully expect it to be researched and professional. You can't just suddenly pretend that you were only casually writing things based on feelings rather than fact whenever you release something of awful quality and people point that out. It's journalists' job to be informed about what they are writing about. No excuses.
The fact that this sort of behavior is accepted and even defended by other gaming journalists is disgusting.
