As a professional lip reader, I can confidently say that in the intro Sam said: "But people who play World of Warcraft, they deserve... love and caring families, and I understand why you would play in a game like this with a rich world and deep lore, and I hope you all do well, because we all are brothers, no matter how distant, but I do care for you guys"
@@bort_p yeah thats just his voice. Fun fact, he's also a pretty big time film actor, he was one of the main characters in an excellent horror movie called The Witch
I kinda think that's true since during that scene he's got two on the counter already. But in the last 5 seconds of the video with that outtake he's taking out the second batch when his kid starts making noise lmao so the theory stands so far
Jesus Christ, get off the group think you wierdos. It's fun AF and has plenty of things to be praised for. Don't be mad cause you're too broke to buy it 😂
This is the most believable apology ive ever heard from anyone on the platform... Didnt expect sam to actually say im sorry... Even when he "accidentally" killed his teammates in tarkov he didnt say im sorry
Sam lives in Florida so there is little chance he has an actual fireplace. But with a greenscreen and some movie magic we could see our boy go full frontal. I mean why even have a little studio for filming if that's not exactly what's going on behind the door.
Hey Sam, just wanna let you know that as a 30summin year old aussie bloke with fuck all to lose, your videos are doing me a lot of good in this world o shit. Been really down lately, but youre vids and the podcast.. that shit keeps a smile on my dial. it's probably the only thing that makes me laugh nowadays, Thanks man. Love from downundah
Honest take, looks like Sam got paid off. He's listless in this review, and seems like he's reading from notes directly from Blizzard. Compare this review to his reviews of Dark and Darker. Hold the line.
Seriously, Bryan is close to the bottom of the rankings for funny quotes, but only because he doesn’t say shit 80% of the time. Poob is at the top because he’s the funniest man alive
D3 was trash and blizzard somehow outdid themselves with D4, ill ever waste full price money on another blizzard game for as long as i live. The Blizzard i loved is dead, i accept that now.
@@josephkim3542 The D4 Campaign just dragged on way too long, to much walking and to much talking. I just srtarted skipping and pushed through, thankfully you can skip the Campaign once you beat it.
Fat chance this will be seen by you Sam, but season 4 just dropped...kinda hot. Confirmed by DM himself it is now "one of the greatest games you'll ever play" you're love for Diablo runs deep..think of Diablo 2. Being said it's close Sam.
It’s actually not tho? Like yea let’s fight the same dude every time and have more of a mindless game so some more of you weirdos can complain the games not pixel enough or turn based and it’s not scary because you played it when you where 4
My first three days of D4 have been ROUGH. World tier 2 aspect bosses make me want to pull my fucking hair out. The skill stat snappy cursor. Even World Tier 1 Aspect dungeons are 50:50 on dying as my regard of a rogue. 15 hours in NO HORSE YET. The shit cherry on the shit cake was a act two quest into a cave that freezes the game. Quite literally unplayable for my rogue as is.
I ended up buying diablo 4 just because my buddies wife got it for him on his birthday and decide to play with him. The only reason i even bothered to was for the story. But the actual gameplay? God awful. Weapons no longer do elemental damage (from what i can tell... i'm level 36 and haven't found anything). The only elemental damage come from skills. I made a rogue and they have the ability to imbue their weapon with an element. But here's the thing... you think it would add elemental damage to your attacks but NO! It only adds poison to your next two skills that you use. The skill tree is very shallow and boring. Then there's the level scaling crap. There's supposed to be this sense of progression. Monsters should be killed in fewer hits the higher level you are until you progress to the harder modes. But no, you could be a level 1 and your buddy could be level 80+ and it would take both of you the same number of hits to kill a monster. So all of those numbers of your stats and damage going up.... are meaningless. It's all an illusion. I even tested it out with my level 36 and my level 1. They both took the same amount of basic attacks to kill the same mob. I wanna play a game where i actually feel like i'm a higher level and can help out noobs. Diablo 4 was a major let down but i am not surprised at all.
Agree to disagree. 83 sorc with 4 other toons too, was fed up in a week. This game is hot trash. Tons of bugs. Lags like crazy and not the connection. Trash. Wow is better and it's pretty unplayable rn too. The only thing about this game is the aesthetic, which is too bad, sicne that is one of the LOWEST things on the totem pole that makes a game fun. This game isn't fun. Period. Give me Dark and Darker.
I think DIV is better than 3 but it’s still dumbed down and babyfied. Not a terrible game tho. I miss stat allocation from 1 and 2 and that dark gritty look. D3 is like world of wardiablo with the cartoony look. D4 at least brought back that atmosphere. Running into the butcher for the first time on d1 is such a cool memory. Barely any moments like that in the newer diablos.
My biggest problem with d4 so far is the skills. I like the direction they went but I hate that I have to have the skill on my bar to utilize it. Like, let me summon and then put different skills on my bar.
I would say the stat allocation was okay ish... Until you realize you should never put points into energy.... Ever... And most points into health... Cause if you don't you will feel pain the further you get into the game... Serious pain 😳... F#$k you Duriel...
As an avid player of D2, I had a blast on D4. I dont see what everyone is bitching about. It's a good game, a different game from D2, but just play D2 if you want D2. Definitely LEAGUES better than D3 anyway.
I put about 2 weeks of solid gaming time into D4 story/leveling blah blah and I'm finished with it. I'll come back for more story but the game loop of just getting better gear isn't appealing to me. Too many games to play and not enough time to spend it all on D4. I'd love this game if I was 14 years old again without disposable income where you play the games you have because you cannot afford more and play them into the ground.
Not only is P.O.E a better game because of story character options. Skills trees better ,crafting is better and path of exiles graphics have been better since the alpha beta. Yall hear sam just gagging on that blizzard shlong literally struggling to create a new idea. Mmmm drool on the moobs Sam
Diablo IV is overmonetized mess filled with anti-consumer practices. There is nothing to apologize for when it comes to games this expensive that also come with in-game show filled with microtransactions.
My generalized anxiety disorder stops me from playing online games, making this one of the biggest losses of a game series for me. Doesn't matter how good it is, can't handle the environment with all the people 🤷
@@arakui Its unrionic, I do, and it makes getting friends or socializing with literally anyone a complete pain to near impossible since everyone is so obsessed with online games. I literally just can't play with them. I get panicked, anger grows immediately cause whenever I play online games it's almost 99.9% not my choice cause some of my friends will get mad or upset at my anxiety and the fact they can barely play anything with me, and I end up gettin snappy and defensive. I don't like the feeling, and I end up losing more friends like that anyways. It's a chronic condition, I can't even do online interviews without balling my eyes out, which makes getting a job extremely difficult. But the government doesn't wanna help so. Pretty sure It stems from the fact whenever I'm online I'm typically judged and criticized for my gaming abilities, yet I can't do much about it cause of nerve damage developed when I was born dead so🤷 You know how people can get in any sort of competitive environment
"i have said ungodly things about minorities and women, but i have to apologize for my worst take of them all, thinking this game was bad" sam is a man with priorities and i cant fault him.
Thought so too, unfortunately burnt out on it hard around lvl 65. There's not a single activity in the game that I would enjoy, which wouldn't feel that I'm doing it for the millionth time, and there's absolutely no incentive for me to level to 100.
They need to add different aura/armor skills (bone armor) for the characters. It looked bad ass when your Amazon had fanaticism with a clone decked out in all gold
Sam laughing at that fucking cutscene is the most genuine laugh i have ever heard from this large man
It made me laugh like I haven't did for a while, best part of the video by far.
It's been proven by science that jolly overweight men have the best laughs.
You must've never watched the podcast.

It’s amazing to think that Abby managed so long with one baby, then decides two more is a good idea.

how so
Do they ever?
Now it did
Wait what happened?
You should have laid naked infront of a fireplace and said ”I’m sorry!”
I did appreciate the Southpark BP throwback!!

Really enjoying the genuine critique of the game, nice change of pace and tone from your usual scripts and felt nicely authentic.
A fire video like always, ending with sam wheezing
21:00 this whole bit wheezed me up harder than anything else
