Its been a year, always try to do one of these after 6 weeks of a holiday. Getting pretty old now, its beginning to show im beginning to get very bitter with gaming, well not gaming, but more game and film reviewers. Everybody thinks they are one, everyone has a level of bias which they claim they dont and there are some things im noticing on live streaming which is really getting on my nerves. so, if you are bored and looking for something to read while you yourself waste some more time before you have to sleep then here we are. Enjoy!
First of all, what games have i been playing this summer which i believe skyrim(yep replayed but went deep! wow this game is good), forza6, halo, starcraft and thats just about it. in other words, nothing new. Ive seen games come and go all summer, no mans sky, dead by daylight (this was really good) but nothing really held me down but ive heard a hell of al lot of opinion, a lot more than usual on games. I took up speed running again met some people got into a few groups was really good and while i did it let you tube auto play. Everyone has a youtube channel it seems, so do i but i use it for tutorial purposes only, not many subs but i want my community to be dedicated in what it is im teaching . .anyway.
Over this last 6 weeks ive been wandering onto channels and streams and managed to stay there long enough for the question to be asked "Do you make a living off this" or something to that effect anyway and it seems it triggers streamers and then they go onto talking about their financial situations which in a lot of the streams has been ok, most still at parents, no real commitments such as family, not really got anything to pay for really. But then there are others which are screaming poverty and shit, all of these however are still in their parents house for the most part. like i said if you stay long enough you get to know quite a lot.
But heres my thing, they claim all this financial problems BUT just looking over their streaming history (for the ones that save their broadcasts) have streamed 20+ different games most of which came out over that last month. If they got them free fair enough. Where are my free games then? Anyway, They are also rocking back in dxracer chairs. Erm, im in the uk, even cheap these chairs are £200 minimum, some are upwards of £400 . .for a chair! Then they start talking aboutb their computer setups and their internet, which clock near the £1500 mark. Ive sent a few bait chat comments finding out if they are able to build their own pcs and 90% couldnt so that £1500 would be an off the shelf purchase im assuming, hey i could be wrong but the above still has to be answered for. So what im getting at here is, is these down and out, poverty streamers have spent near 5000, i mean im older than most, since twitch really kicked off about 2 years ago (i mean i started when twitch was called justin)there wasnt a single person on stream with a gaming chair, this has happened over the last 2 years and with the advent of streaming everyone seems to have i7 mech keys and hi dpi mice. then play all the current games and theres one every 2 weeks or so now . . .Do you get me? So please. Stop with the whining, its happening too much that i feel i have to write these thoughts down! I dont expect anyone to read this though, just something i like to do to vent and feel like i can add my own closure on the situation.
Next film reviewers.
Ive been saying it for a while but everyone uses rotten tomatoes, Everyone uses the off meter thing, this site is a load of rubbish and i think responsible for the post review of near everyone else. ive noticed this since a lot of hi impact films came out over this last year and had negative scores, when they were releases to us AND THESE SO CALLED FILM reviewers, so they got to see it no earlier than me all gave films a negative review. Let me give and example Ghostbusters. Yep, not that good, but it was 50% of a film i can list movies in RT's best films ever which the new ghostbusters was just better than on an entertainment value. I just feel reviews dont do anyone any good as they simply dont follow fair and strict guidelines to give a balanced feel. Imagine if exams and college course grades were given out like film reviews, all the eyelid batting girls and good humored non cheeky kids who you dont mind would get solid grades(reviews) where as the people who didnt conform or you had a different opinion of would just simply score lower. If you can understand what im trying to say from the above, but noone on the internet ever does when you do this. Trigger warning.
The films which i feel the 'popular' reviewers just got plain wrong and their reviews arent even reviews. They seem to suggest how they could make the film a lot better and what would have been cooler if and then go into some sad reveal of how much they have managed to research before speaking about it OR how much of their adult time theyve spent into thinking about this form of entertainment, hey, im all for getting lost in a universe but the level of whine seems to trigger my pursuit of happiness. I would love to social experiment with the idea nothing is announced or revealed EVER and it just hits the shelves. EVERYONE i believe would just get it, use it or whatever and the world will; be much less of a negative place. Just sayin.
Anyway this has gone on just venting some real first world issues im seeing which some idiot kids on the internet are moning about, not even got onto the feminist rant yet so. Dont buy a gaming chair and whine about money issues, dont review a film and then pretend to be the director and . . .just dont!
