of all people… matpat?
why do people hate matpat so much
I mean as far grating youtube personalities go there are way more annoying people??
his name is stupid and my first experience of trying to listen to him talk lasted me about seven seconds
Oh, so that’s what Jade Raymond has been up to
also he’s gotten rich off of reiterating other people’s research without crediting them
like, most youtube gamer assholes are like… bill mahers or howard sterns
matpat is national enquirer
Trackmania Stadia
nothing has yet convinced me they will attach an actual business model to this which has historically been an excuse for google to kill services
anyway they’re trying to scoop the next gen the way steam tried with the current one and I don’t think they’ll displace the incumbents but some neat technology will probably come out of it
truly this is the doublemusic I crave
quote this post when they quietly announce it’s being discontinued and everyone involved is moved to a messaging app
A work “friend” linked me one of “MatPat’s” “Game Theory” videos once and instead of math it was complete fucking nonsense so I’m not a fan!
I think if literally any other company (seriously, any. Like… Nabisco? sure) had announced this, I would have been at least a little excited.
I’m not strictly anti-google or anything. It’s just that, as a couple of people have pointed out, the clock is already ticking down to this thing’s inevitable demise and it’s not even out yet.
Wait so is matpat the game theory person or…?
yes
Gross.
“oh, look at all these ugly filters we can have AIs create for the games you play!”
“pretty soon we won’t even need artists anymore!”
hmmm f u c k google
yeah I don’t really like anything about this
I don’t want google to have a gaming presence at all tbh
can they just go away
this is also a real good point
though I think it presupposes a little too much optimism in the financial prospects of many current indie developers (I’m not convinced there’s a there there regardless), it still bears mentioning
I don’t usually like to be so negative at new hardware announcements, but the more I read up on Stadia, the more I keep thinking “thanks, I hate it”
