Was I the only one to watch this again for the 10th anniversary? While I love EVE there isn't anything untrue in that review and he's right, I do want to find a sparkle dragon Big smile

He did a bad job reviewing the game but a good job entertaining everyone doing it.

I wonder if he knows how much we like it...

Seemed pretty accurate to me

So who here is a high powered businessman who plays Eve while negotiating mergers, neglecting your wife and becoming emotionally dead?

Good signature, +1 for truth.

I never watch zero punctuation because he seems to deliberately destroy any sense he might be making by only ever uttering those single sentence reviews so you're actually left with having to review his sentence to find out what he actually was saying which is tiresome I can't see what the appeal is of someone writing a script and then going over it to delete every punctuation or exclamation there might be and when reading the script aloud simply speeding it up It really baffles me why people care enough for his reviews to endure that but I guess his neverending sentence reflects on his neverending critique and it might actually be entertaining As said I don't watch it so I can't really say I did learn how to make such scripts myself You will probably already have guessed Smartypants.

He seemed to enjoy blood dragon. Part of his shtick is being negative. Supposedly his second or third review was glowing and he got a lot of negative feedback on its positiveness.

And I still like his review.

After rewatching the review, we totally need a T1 sparkly dragon ship for PvP.

Does roleplaying a high powered businessman while I negotiate mergers with the hot neighbor, neglecting my wife, and becoming emotionally dead because I spend too much time on the EVE Forums count?

Because if so, no, not me.

:(

I agree with you there, I too am more acustomed to this.

As much as I like and find Yahtzee funny, anyone else think that he found EVE too hard and ragequit?

It's human nature to want to explore. To find your line and go beyond it. The only limit, is the one you set yourself.

Not a review. It's entertainment.

I thought it was a backwards dominix. It still was heartwarming to see it. If only battle barges could.
