Hearted Youtube comments on Upper Echelon (@UpperEchelon) channel.

  1. Your intro at the start killed me

  2. Upper Echelon: (Paraphrasing) "Zoey and Mark are polar opposites in nearly every aspect except their online behavior and their audiences behavior." Comments: "OMG DUDE C'MON, GRUMMZ IS NOTHING LIKE ZOEY, SHE "insert something she did that doesn't have anything to do with Kickstarter funds and game development". Lol... sigh GUYS, he only mentioned Zoey Quinn to shine a light on the fact that even though they are opposed and literally polar opposites, they are nearly identical when it comes to defending themselves and what their audiences do in their defense AND HE EVEN goes on to mention how the media defended Zoey and painted her as a "victim and survivor" while claiming she never did anything wrong and now Mark is going through something very similar but objectively much less harmful and self lucrative yet he's being painted as a "grifter, racist, bigot and thief" and the media even ran articles about Mark being a, "dead beat dad that doesn't pay child support".(Completely made up and lacks any evidence to support) and they continued to run this story even after it was proven incorrect. You guys in the comments are so quick to Marks defense that you aren't aware he doesn't need one because UE is proving a point that even though they are opposites, they do have a similar event in their life that they both get criticism for yet one side defends Zoey as if she's a saint and martyr while they simultaneously try to crucify and slander Mark for similar things Zoey has done yet they pretend she didn't. (Pro Tip: Try to watch the entire video, listening and comprehending every word before clicking the comment section.) Edit: typed this on a phone, sorry for any typos and I never look at my replies so don't bother)

  3. This is something that I've tried to explain to people. If you're getting all of your written content generated by ChatGPT or something like that, you're dependent on what the people creating the software package think is "a good idea." There's been a few scandals of people asking ChatGPT to justify fossil fuels or nuclear power and the program spitting out "I can't do that because it's wrong" error messages. A writer, a GOOD writer (like me, looking for a job) can do that for you.

  4. "no NPCs = no civilisation = no society = no character building = no emotional investment whatsoever" this should be written as official description of Fallout 76
    608
  5. jeez, you werent wrong with the spam comments
    607
  6. Remember when they prescribed pain killers which led thousands to sue from overdoses? Those same companies still rake in trillions

  7. They tried to screw over a community that is literally designed to work together… how did they think this was gonna go?

  8. You got a purty mouth. At this point I struggle to work out which media outlets are being leveraged by the industry with advertising campaigns, and which ones are blackmailing the gaming industry with negative coverage. One thing is for sure: its a giant circle-jerk of self-interested parties, and none of them give much of a shit about the consumer. Great video as always mate.

  9. Hi. Just want to say thanks for how you covered this. I was linked the video while I was doing a live stream and watched part of it on my broadcast. I did add some commentary and context and fully attributed the source but will delete the VoD if you request. I think you do great work and I've followed it for a while Given the low standards of Esports Talk and their two former mouthpieces this isn't much of a compliment but you certainly have a much better understanding of how to cover the news than they do. I wish you every success.

  10. If you want to talk about a game that has been broken for years and is still being sold , look at toy soldiers war chest, it's a 20$ game sold by Ubisoft that you can't play unless you randomly get the good download which allows it to be played, Ubisoft has known about it and has addressed it years ago only to not fix it. If you get the bad version of the download, you won't be able to get past the start screen.

  11. Betas. Does anyone remember the days when you got a disc free on the front of magazines with demo's!. They where the days. Try before you buy. Edit for all those out there. I know this video is about a beta. Not a demo

  12. I was mind controlled by this video to give it a like.

  13. This is your daily reminder to drink water

  14. wow a tips and tricks that actually are useful, compared to the useless basic gameplay mechanics that ign etc. upload
    534
  15. I hate any game that intentionally restricts my progress. Be it Genshin Impact or be it Assassin's Creed Odyssey
    533
  16. Any company that credits more than 0.2% of gross revenue provides poor service and needs to be avoided. I’ve never seen any company credit 8% gross revenue ever. In any sector. I’m over 50…

  18. BORDERLANDS WILL HAVE POST LAUNCH LOOTBOXES!!! please cover this ueg! This is why they got supmatto! He was going to expose paid lootbox microtransactions before the review cycle!! That is why 2k took such crazy actions!!

  19. Calling Tim a conservative will definitely not get you on Timcast.
    513
  20. Can we just applaud them for releasing a "complete" game?
    502
  21. Hello Upper , if you jump several obstacles with your horse you can leveling horsemanship insanely fast!!

  22. About the "push forward until one step too far, then backtrack to find another angle forward", can we start calling that CORPORATE SAVE SCUMMING?
    493
  23. The lead designer of Warframe said something about giving them human bodies but not human faces. This prevents a negative psychological response.

  24. “We’ve had nothing but Trump for 4 stinking years.” - Starving Journalist “What about a fandom, they look tasty? ‘Cmon, just the bigots! They don’t need those!” - Journalist learning to code “Looks like GamerGate is back on the menu boys!” - Editor-in-chief

  25. I'm still confused and at a loss of words.What happend Bethesda?Why have you forsaken us? If you guys want to get hyped for a good game with great devs, look into cyberpunk 2077.Bethesda has dropped the torch, but it's in good hands with CD Projekt Red.

  26. its worse than you think, ai chatbots have been improved so much now that you could be arguing with a bot defending a corporation.
    466
  27. No one : Upper Echelon : "Na na na na na na na na!"
    464
  28. I don't like and I don't comment, but I am gonna give you one of each to help combat fanboys that will attack this video. Keep up the good work.

  29. Don't think it is considered unique but, you can steal the racoon hat from the mountain man in the Valentine saloon.

  30. to clarify, the gif was something i made in ue5 in 20 mins after the second devblog lmao
    451
  31. Niiiice. I wanted someone to cover this shady f*ck and you delivered.
    445
  32. The bots in the comments proving the theory.
    442
  33. I served in the USMC for 8 years. There is no way I could have gotten 2 degrees, with no debt, without serving. Lived in 3 countries, visited 13 (only fought in 2 of those). It broaden my perspective on the world, and so many other aspects of our life. A lot of the people copy & pasting the hatred are doing so from small minds, tiny perspectives, & very little knowledge or understanding.
    439
  34. WHERE ARE THE DANCING CRABS?
    436
  35. If you don’t feature this comment in your next video EA will stuff you in a loot box.

  36. Adult games are Rated M for Mature for a reason and I'm hoping that Cyberpunk reminds the world of it
    423
  37. When you get blocked even before releasing the actual video, you know they are trying to hide to shady shit.
    420
  38. "We leave greed to others!!" Love this quote.
    418
  39. Riot has already started doing AI bans in the League chat. People get banned for random shit like "Karma was the GOAT!" and get then it gets tagged as sarcasm. AI is both a joke and terrifying
    416
  40. I really enjoyed my time in this game. Not every game needs to be a never ending game-as-a-service experience. Sometimes it's nice to spend 20-30 hours in a world, finish a story and move onto the next. A real breath of fresh air in an era when games are continually being released as unfinished experiences.
    416
  41. Dude I want to send you money for this video! Seriously.
    412
  42. Upper Can I hire you to scold my kids lol they might actually learn something
    409
  43. people can't tell the size of objects in the sky very accurately, a small drone close by can seem like a massive drone far away and vice versa. SO any claims about their size is pretty unreliable.
    408
  44. I think you're arguing in bad faith here @UpperEchelon ... he said it would 10X, which is clearly an algebra equation. If you solve for X you get 0.003, which is exactly what happened! My boy Arya Realty is a GENIUS prognosticator!

  45. Love the loading joke

  46. While you can own an individual design or artwork you cannot own a the exclusive rights to practice that art form. So for example I can’t use a picture of oil painting posted on the internet by an artist, but I can make my own oil painting, and I can even use the same style as said artist. You can’t own sculpting even it’s a certain style like this. So while the artist does own his specific designs so long as the vehicles in the game don’t completely copy them and have their own designs. (So they can’t look exactly the same, but they can be the same style) then this game is easily within copyright protection. If I want to make my own unique kinetic sculpture I can, and there’s nothing that Jansen can do about it. Same with these devs.

  47. Indie games are better now. AAA games are greedy cash grabs built around microtransactions. I expect a new video game crash, like from 1983.

  48. He 100% called Elon calling off the twitter deal
    396
  49. Sometimes you gotta like your own comment to get it started.
