Jim Sterling is a JOKE

- Ah, Jim Sterling. Beloved critic among Redditors and fellow "journalists". Predictably, he decided to attack CD Projekt Red over Cyberpunk 2077 mandatory crunch. So, join me in this angry rant as I deconstruct his ridiculous arguments.
Special thanks to Artists: Perturbator, Carpenter Brut, Le Louvre, and of course CD Projekt Red (and the Artists who made the music for Cyberpunk) for not having copyright protection on their music. Anyone reading this should support them in any way you can.

Gotta love that conservatives are the villains in like 99% of games but one mobile game gives one reference to something left leaning and Jim has a fit.
Seriously... look at that dumb fucking Far Cry 5 game! Ubisoft being retard political fanatics
Ain't that a kick in the pants? They really are used to being the status quo, aren't they?
I'd love to see his reaction to Acquitted lmfao
@@unnamed715 What's the reference?
This.

Absolutely this.
They are so fragile and mentally ill.
I was watching a WingsofRedemption stream earlier (obviously an edit by one of his trolls, I could never bring myself to watch an unedited Wings stream) and someone in chat asked Wings if he could crossdress for them and he responded with "If you want to see a dude that looks like me dress like a woman, go watch Jim Sterling" and it was one of the few time where I had an honest laugh and agreed with Wings.
Wow, legit one of the few times wings has said something true. The sad part is if someone brought this up to him, he would immediately go into "im not transphobic i swear" coward mode he always goes into when people call him racist and such. for once I'd love for someone to say "yes, and ?" as a response to someone crying about "transphobia and racism".
Gotta give it to the big pimp. He can be funny as hell sometimes
@@cococock2418 wings has gotten a lot better but he has no idea how to respond or act towards the trolls and keeps feeding into it.
@@cococock2418 To be fair, you don't have to be transphobic to call out what Jim has been doing. Wouldn't surprise me to find out a LOT of people with gender dysphoria outright hate his guts just due to how he portrays and presents himself.
@@latinaparfait yeah this is why he keeps getting trolled. Literally all wings had to do was say "GG" to syndicate in their 1v1 and play along with the jokes rather than against them, and he would have a very successful career, as he genuinely used to be good at cod multiplayer. In an alternate universe, wings of redemption is a respected twitch streamer who is rich beyond his imagination and lost tons of weight, and is married to a 4'11 Latina model

It baffles me that a man his age was motivated to jump on this trend. Someone might think at a certain age he lived long enough to be a "made man" steadfast in himself and his personality.
@theblackbaron4119 it became fasionable. See how non binary he is in a few years when it's not trendy anymore. Didn't he only come out as gay when it became cool too?

Regarding CDPRs makeup of employees, the company just sided with and became part of the ESG score.
It's gg for them
never understood how anyone took Jim sterling seriously at all.
before he even "came out", I found the guy completely insufferable.
Jim uses "they/them" pronouns you transphobic POS
i liked some of his stuff back towards the end of high school and later one but as time went on it was just him complaining about the same thing over and over again it got tiring, that and not every problem can be boiiled down to company greed
@@Rammkommando it's not the same thing over and over liar, only thing tiring here is your lame-ass post, BTW Jim goes by they/them pronouns now you transphobic POS. Jim also never said every problem was due to company greed, but let's face it quite a few problems are caused by exactly that.
Speaking as a former fan, he used to not be a total cunt. He was actually a decent person once and made very good arguments while also being very goofy and silly with his humor, but I think that last point might be more subjective than anything else since I can see how his brand of comedy isn’t really for everyone.
But he was slowly deteriorating even before he came out, attacking his audience, positing lies and scathing narratives to demonize people who criticized a character he seemed to like, and even outright ignored shit that normally would get him right pissed because it would hurt his narrative.
Back then I enjoyed his rants but I could not even BARE to stand his ego about "thank god for me" stick which felt like he was a rather pompous pretentious ass after a while.
2 years later and jim is still making himself look like a goddamn fool

Looking at Jim Sterling now... this video aged like a fine wine.
Jimmy boy here doesn't realise the raised fist is not a blm exclusive copyrighted logo, but a generic leftoid symbol of muh revolution, a much needed escapist fantasy for 'revolting' people so to speak. We don't need to worry about the gaming industry after all, Jim'll Fix It.
I'm eager to see a leftist civil war because the meaning of a fist. Some feminist already started to attack "trans" women, the left tend to be cannibalistic.
Wtf dude...a RUclipsr that actually speaks against the narrative and has their own opinions? Even if I don't agree with every single thing you said, I agree with a damn lot of it. And am even more thrilled that you actually have the guts to say how you see things, and point out some of the shit going on today. Love it! Wish I could sub even harder.
Jim was genuinely respectable back in the day. Before the politics made him a farce.
I have great memories of playing Destiny online back around 2014 and binging his videos. He exposed the Konami treachery years before the highly-public firing of Kojima, too, for example. He also was putting Ubisoft on blast for just plain awful business strategies.
It was quite something to watch his slow descent into madness. He makes fat stacks of cash for being a token these days, too. $12,358/month STILL. Even after unelected Joe hyperinflation.
I pop in every couple of months to watch his lolcow channel's subscriber count dwindle. Because at least it's funny.
2023 and Jim has become a living caricature of a toxic Troon. Spyro soundtrack is balm for the soul btw.
Been going back through some of your older videos.
Just found your channel recently.
This one was great!
Its a hard line between entertaining and complaining and you make it seem so easy and casual.
You are great at this job.
While your defense of Cyberpunk obviously didn't age well, though you had admitted the possibility it would be a disappointment, the first half of your video is still spot on and becoming even more relevant.
Yeah that part struck me as unfortunate haha.
This aged like fucking milk but at least he admitted to that in some other comments

@@renzmanzano4010 Some people just hate him because he is spot on pretty much all the time. But seriously he is one of the only trustworthy sources in the gaming community, doesn't sugar coats things and most people just don't want to hear that.
I came to the comments for this.
Remember when every British RUclipsr would wear a top hat because they thought it made them goofy and quirky? Even Pyrocynical did it for a while
Oim bri'ish, that's the joke, ennit? *tips top hat*
Here after jim decided hes a woman, still called jim
jim is a full blown narcissist and every single thing he does is for attention
@UsernamesHandle his channel is still called Jim sterling because he wanted the brand recognition, so that's his name too. He can't be Jim sterling when it suits him and there's a buck to be made, then cry about dead naming the rest of the time
@@TheScience69 haven't seen one of this guys vids in years, i thought this comment was a joke... nope. these people never fail to disappoint.
Is a shame because he really didn't start out like this. I mean the whole spat between him and Digital Homicide Studios was legendary. A fucking shovelware company sued a non-reviewer over bad "reviews" and got rightfully btfo'd. The Jim that did that isn't around anymore.
Instead he probably would apologize to that studio.
Yes he did start out like this. He supported and was close with that chick that metoo'd an indie dev and he ended up losing his career and then committing self deletion. One complete bs sounding tweet at the height of the me too movement with 0 evidence and a man lost his career instantly then lost his life. Jim supported it and he also advertised her indiegogo gofund me video game campaign (she's not even a developer she's a indie studio hanger on). She ended up taking the money and ghosting the backers. If you want an indie studio to stop supporting right now it's heart machine who made hyper light drifter and that solar ash game. They're close with her and made fun of the dude's death. She has "credits" in both games for getting passed around by dude's at the studio.

For all of America's history people with little more than the clothes on their backs flocked to her shores because they believed they would have a better life. Modern Americans are a thousand times more able to pick up and emigrate then they were.
There is a fundamental difference between pointing out flaws in one's country in the genuine desire to make it better, and denigrating and even hating one's country and claiming it's rotten to the core. The latter is nothing more than a dishonest Useful Fool.
Troon'd out and tuned out.
This video aging like milk simply reaffirms one thing: big corporations aren't your friends. CDPR, Rockstar, Sony, Microsoft, Disney, Apple and so on. They are and never will be your friends. Stop stanning for them.
Facts. ^
Well i guess nobody says these companies were their friends either, developers like rockstar makes quality games but nobody absolutely consider them as a friend except stupid kids asking for GTA 6, they make quality games but still in the end they care about money, even since San Andreas came out, people keep acting like they're not greedy back then.
How about you stop stanning for Jim?
@@SirBlackReeds I'm sure he will.
When Jim stops being the only one in this industry that's fucking right.
Riot's pretty good, from what I've seen Valorant dev's haven't been being forced to crunch.
As someone who worked in a factory where we literally had to work a mandatory extra 2 hours 4/5 days and were still told that we should work more ot on weekends it’s fucking infuriating that he thinks 1 day a week is bad.
White collars complaining about overtime in a heated/air conditioned office sitting in an ergonomic computer chair genuinely brings me joy at their soft tears
2:59 Yeah, I rather watch videos with random gameplay in the background than videos made using almost only stupid stock footage. No kidding, some gameplay might be actually interesting, unlike stupid stock footage, no matter how beautifully shot.

Watching this now, in light of what happened to the individual formerly known as Jim Sterling, it's quite prescient
this is pre troon arch too :) great video
jim sterling's condescendent passive aggressiveness is infuriating.
This woke culture constantly gets characterized as "left", but it's really not, Lenin opposed Identity politics, Marx and Engels saw no value in it and declared it as a bourgeois concept - which it is - , only Liberals, both closeted and open are supporters of this mental ret*rdation.
I don't hold it against Synthetic Man that he views clowns like Jim as Left considering he's american. As there are barely any real leftists in the US, it's almost inevitable to develop a warped view on leftism, but to not drag on for too long I'll just say that actual leftists in my country (including myself) are at best annoyed by these ret*rds, and at worst actively hate them for destroying the perception of the "Left" as a political term. Real Left Wingers care about the working class, the family and community, not whatever cause lgbtards, armchair "socialists" like Jim or Climate doomsayers would have us champion this week.

W-what? Crunch isn’t bad! Don’t insult my corporate overlords! I need product! I must consume product!!

I can’t believe he defended worker overtime they could just delay the game another year or so gamers can wait it’s not like they’re life depends on it also overtime leads to poor mental health and it makes work even less efficient due to burnout this guy is an idiot
almost as if work might be - *gasp*- difficult and challenging. just like the video games that Jim dislikes.
As a software developer, I must say crunch is a common practice on the industry... BUT, it's done because software must be FINISHED.
Back in the time of this video, I was very supportive with CDPr because I know crunch is common and sometimes mandatory. But after playing Cyberpunk, I'm sure it was one of the worst and pointless crunch I've seen in a software company, so in my opinion, that crunch was a stupid measure when the true answer was delaying the game at least one year (or three, since it's 2022, they didn't fixed most of the true problems and the campaign is really meh).
But to be honest: "just coding" isn't an easy task, you need a lot of concentration and it can be really stressful...
I still mock Cyberpunk saying "this game was announced back when last-gen was next-gen, it's so next-gen that even current-gen isn't enough for it"... it's sad because it's obvious most of the development went to changing the story for including Keanu Reeves, and the next graphic technology: ray-tracing. CDPr was more focused into a beloved actor and a pointless technology for modern hardware. I've not tested it with my new 3080 Ti, but Control can't run at max settings with RTX and 2160p, so I guess the same applies to Cyberpunk, although it somehow worked smootly at 2160p in my gaming laptop (GTX 1070).
About Sterling: I hated that guy since the first time I saw his profile back when Steam introduced "mentors", I've never seen his videos (mostly because I'm from México, so I watch only English videos I'm interested, some of this channel got into my recommendations and I'm giving it a try, good opinions, it's sad the author will never see this comment).
If you take a look at CDPR’s balance sheet you’ll notice that the entire company is made up of owner’s equity. They literally have almost zero liabilities, the entire company is just Assets and Owner’s equity. They delayed the game so many times, based on the BS I’m pretty sure the major shareholders went to senior leadership and told them the game is coming out no matter what.
Did it need another year? Yeah, but it’s not even the bugs that bother me too much. It’s the fact we have probably the most gorgeous game world of all time with zero C&C, zero faction interaction, zero skill checks etc. I wish they would have spent another year just expanding quest lines, expanding faction quests and forcing the player to make meaningful decisions that impact the game world.
That and fixing the police (did they ever fix that or is it still the same?). I digress, I’m pretty sure senior leadership got a directive from their majority owners, and scrambled over the last 6 months to strip the game down so it would actually run. Sadly, they compromised so much and we ended up with 70% of the greatest game of all time (the world, the graphics, the voice acting etc) and then messed up the last 30% so badly it just wasted all the great work they did.
@@Deebosamuel19 yeah I'm guessing like you said it just got to the point where they were told "This is when you're releasing whatever it is you have" so they took out whatever they had to to make it actually function the best they could
I ran it on release and was lucky enough to not get most of the bugs and crashes most got on my ps4 and told myself I'll play it again whenever they finally fix whatever they can and drop some dlc if they do but as you know that day has yet to come
The sad part was playing through it there was some much meat left on so many bones. You'd meet someone or a faction and think "Man I can't wait to see where this goes" and then it's a mission and they're never mentioned again. This game could've been great if given enough time to cook
@@Deebosamuel19 that’s what I said every time I saw people putting cdpr to the grill and wanted the game NOW: didn’t shigeru miyamoto say a rushed game will be forever bad or some such? I had the feeling they had overhyped the game and that had the higher ups and lower downs demanding it come out yesterday because of it. The only issues is when it ends up like Duke Nukem Forever and dev studios keep kicking it down the road to each other.
As for the cops, I hear that was fixed last patch, but I’ve never bought the game myself.
@@Deebosamuel19 Burned me once I discovered that the game was just a glorified Far Cry game.
Yeah, software must be finished, so why don't you guys just plan more reasonable development times so you don't HAVE to crunch except as a last resort in the case of some catastrophic issue that threatens the entire projects release date?
Jim is correct when he says crunch is a failure of the management. Fucking manage your labor time projections better and eliminate crunch.
I am form Balkans where the pay and standard of life are lower then in the states. I was in the Qa sector (black box tester- basically we do anything besides having access to the code so devkits and gear that the end user generally has...). We had optional working weekends from time to time and also optional overtime. Even if the firm was small, we worked a lot on AAA games as well as indie titles (we did a lot of work for Ubi, even shared the same building, lots of work for paradox as well, we worked on Disco Elysium and a lot of others). When the optional overtime came, we would fight for the place on the list, especially since the overtime pays 150% of the pay and weekend go for 200%. I do not know about other firms but here when you work on a computer, you basically work for 50 minutes and then have a 10 minute mandatory break (You can of course work through it and take it later if you are talking to the devs about some problems or similar...). The pay was a bit shit but when it comes to the pay for overtime and working conditions, it was awesome to work there. People used to play competitions in what ever was installed at the time and on last day of the week, we would get piss drunk and could leave 2 hours earlier to start our weekend right. I am of course in a shitty part of Europe so i have to guess that these kinds of things and conditions are much better in America...
I stopped watching Jim years ago. Yeah, when I worked in minimum wage retail in my 20's, I worked 7 days a week for the 8 weeks leading up to Xmas one year. I worked for £4.82 an hour back then and I was exhausted. I however did it! I love how when game politics are leftist, they are generally happy with it as it aligns with their delicate sensibilities....but anything not radical left.....REEEEEEEEEEEEEE.

Jim Sterling is a clown. Shame I didnt find your content sooner. Good job!
that's offensive to actual clowns.
Dude has some deep seeded mental issues. It's actually sad.
People get stressed they have deadlines to meet, they have to work overtime. So it's like almost any other job? Makes you wonder how Jim thinks society functions if getting stuff done on time doesn't matter. I think the problem with actually taking a stand towards unethical practices is where do you draw the line?
Why stop at buying video games because of overtime; why not stop buying electronics completely because the rare earth minerals to make them is mined in third world countries by slave labour, and then turned into components in china by even more slave labour. Why not stop eating meat because the factory farming conditions is horrible, why not stop eating greens too because of the ecological damages farming does. Why ever go anywhere because the damage you'll cause to the enviroment if you use any form of long-distance transportation. You might aswell just stop breathing because you remove oxygen from the air and exhale co2; and that's bad for the enviroment.
And I get that it's whataboutism but I don't see why the problem is always on the individual consumer. Why is it up to me take a stand by not buying the game, instead of on the individual worker to just say no I won't work overtime. I'm not gonna pretend I don't understand the reasons why people would feel forced to comply, heck I don't agree with our corporate structured landscape to begin with.
But I just find Jim's way of framing things ridicilious. Feels like him pointing fingers is more of a way for him to cope about his own guilt about buying games from said companies more than anything.
Literally everything we have is the result of someone elses hard work and people's suffering, the least you can do is not take that stuff for granted. But strangely these are also the same kinda people that think the world owes them everything and they're entitled to anything without any form of contribution what so ever.
Most people don't have the luxury to work at their dream job, or have the salary and time to do everything they could ever want. But if that's what it takes to keep our living standards the way they are, maybe it's worth it? Everyone seems to go around thinking the world is shit when it could be so so much worse. Obviously there's plenty of problems and I'm not saying we shouldn't work to improve things, but morally grandstanding on every little issue isn't gonna do anything.
The only person you have agency over and you could realistically change the outcomes of is yourself, not the rest of the world. Thanks for listening to my ted-talk.
TLDR; I buy my games without having to feel bad for the person making them. /rant
Ya the dude just redundantly rants about shit he supports financially any ways. That's what I don't understand about most of the people who complain. If you don't like it stop supporting it. The dudes giving all these games and studios negative press but any press is good press it's free promotion. If you don't take a stand against it in any way then don't complain so much. Dude only defends the game industry workers but it happens everywhere sometimes people are forced to work overtime and I'm sure it's not the crazy amount he makes it out to be maybe at the end of a games production to meet the release it's like that. Deadlines have to be met in a business if they fail to meet that they lose money. Jim is just a narcissist and a asshole that likes to belittle his fans with opposing views and act like he's some moral standard setter .
Also, I don't know how it is in other countries, but here in México they pay you extra hours and if you work in your free day, it's paid double, most people do it because our economy is f**ked by a dumb lefty government (and previous center and right ones), but crunch is something very common. It's obvious Sterling has never been on a real job.

This aged like cheese in the sun.
Cheese touch heh
I'm afraid even that is an understatement.
I mean... jim sterling is still an idiot.
@Mikhail G SJW 🤣🤣🤡
@Mikhail G Imagine criticising someone for not being an SJW....
@8:59 no not rightfully the raised fist is used in many dictatorship and tyrannical factions so it is appropriate. The fact that BLM uses it is terrifying.
It's so painful listening to Dim Sterling and his constant "upspeak". Guy has a lot of issues to deal with that he uses games and dress up play fighting to hide from. Just a few steps closer, Jimmy! You'll soon work out how to unlock the closet door
Jim is openly gay. Jeez. Never be so hateful that you become ignorant
Jim Sterling is the punchline.
"Lgq blah blah alphabet" Liked and Subd bro
I played 2077 and to be honest I enjoyed it. I played on a series X and had a somewhat stable experience. Less so then I normally get on a console. But I enjoyed the story. I did find the game to lose balance later on and you get brokenly OP. But I had fun. I was disappointed by the fact that they portrayed the game as a story-branching experience but was pretty linear. I understand the pure brokeness being a problem for people. But the amount of people I've seen talk about 2077 and not seem to understand or even have experienced the game is a lot.
Great that you enjoyed the story! Nothing ground breaking even for video games. If the whole story was at the level of the intro I could agree with you on the story. Vee was a potato sack of a character and Johnny was a huge pain in the ass compared to his tabletop origins. The content was repetitive and for every mildly interesting missions there were ten copy paste encounters, but had okay crafting and variety of skills to use. At this day and age it would be considered a "good game" if it wasn't an unfinished mess at launch.
@@JohnSmith-ox3gy Passive aggressive much?
Greetings, Random Guy from just shy of 2024 here. I would like to let Mr. Synthetic Man that Cyberpunk 2077 was was eventually released without any controversies and everybody lived happily ever after! 😀
Cringe Sterling.
This video is an interesting time capsule, made before CP came out unfinished and Jim came out as a woman.
And the "four more years" comment considering Biden cheated Trump out of the election, lol
Just finished watching your Cyberpunk 2077 rant video and wow, talk about a 180.
hypocrisy is beautiful ain't it? Anything for the "gamers"
@Something Diabolical If you ever change your mind about anything, you're a hypocrite. If you have the same political opinion now that you had when you were eleven, you're being intellectually consistent, not stagnant.
This is the mindset of the twitter blob.
@@BobExcalibur that’s ridiculous mentality to have. People Changes or improved there standings in light of new information or results
Intellectually honest is much more valuable than constant. ( and if you’re opinion isn’t more valid because you held it for a longer period of time. That’s your integrity who might be improved. )
@@wildhook3901 right....but he's making fun of leftists for saying that changing your mind is "hypocrisy"
@@007kingifrit
Did the definition of hypocrisy change? I thought it was about acting contrary to what you preach.
Concerning world views: I respect each and any of them. The only requirement from me is that people stick to rules of their world views. And here is the bummer: Not one communist I came across who lived up to his own worldview. Not one...
They have the lowest rating among all worldviews! And that’s really all I ask for. Live up to the standards you proclaim.
Don’t preach communism while jacking up rent prices on a tiny crappy apartment you own. Or preach communism while earning 15000 dollar on Patreon while not financially supporting one real and efficient social cause. The list could go on. But it’s too boring to continue.
I wish these people the privilege to live under real communism. And you can’t fault me for that. They did it to themselves.
I judge people according to their own rules. Not mine... and that’s the most condemning to them.
100% agreed. They NEVER live up to the values and rules they claim we should all follow. I've seen many videos of socialists saying "the rich should house all the poor and homeless!!, let them sleep on your sofa" and then the interviewers say.." well why can't you let a homeless person sleep on your sofa?" and the socialists always go... "uhh welll i don't have enough space for that and it just wouldn't work" they are total hypocrites and in my view, they would all LOVE to be on $15,000 a month patreon milking off some idiots
Lol spoken like people who doesnt have the slightest idea of what communism is. Dont even bother replying, none of you are worth my time.
@@matheusst.3655 LOL Spoken like a true communist "none of you are worth my time" god i bet you wish you could be at the top of that communist totem pole don't ya! So you can tell us mere 'peasants' what to do
I don't know how many communists you've met but I'm sure 99% of them are actually socialists, or rather, social democrats. And it's just you who confuses them.
Simple question to clarify this: Would you consider Bernie Sanders as a communist?
Lmfao, what even is this abortion of a comment
Other than the fact that this paradox was already addressed (see Mark Fisher) you just created some weird, upper middle class strawman of a "communist" in your brain and ran with it lol
IM 40 AND IT GIVES ME HOPE TO SEE THERE ARE STILL SOME MEN BEING RAISED...SO TIRED OF THIS SHIT....GAME INDUSTRY HAS BEEN SHIT FOR A LONG TIME, i CANT BRING MYSELF TO PLAY ANY OF THESE GAMES AND WONT..ITS SAD I MISS THE GOOD OL DAYS
Thankfully there is still plenty of older stuff to play. This has been a great time to kill my back log of games and Im not even interested in modern games anymore because they are worse then games made decades ago everything is so formulaic and bland now mixed with shitty leftist politics.
I don't care about the rest of the video. The fact that anyone used THAT clip of the Big Lebowski out of context is just THAT great.
Synth has grown a lot in no less than a year. Going from "Trying to look at it from a centrist point of view" to now practically 1488.
Heil synthler
i don’t know anything about jim sterling except for the one time i watched a video by him, his voice and schtick immediately pissed me off. i don’t know if i should thank you for giving me more reasons to dislike him but you certainly did that very well
I was watching one his videos years ago, and my father walked in and looked at him and said:
"Why is this guy dressed like a Nazi?"
Watching in 2023, and all the Cyberpunk praise in this video sure did age like a fine wine. lol
Seems like in September 2023 cyberpunk will finally be pretty good
I work at Microsoft in Tokyo. The hours are long in tech and it sucks.
This video was such a verbal annihilation it changed his gender
"Buzzword, buzzword, buzzword and buzzword"-Jim Sterling.
Omg a symbol that lots of rebellious groups use made it n into the symbol for people rebelling in a game how terrible.
Hey, did you see the news about the internal meeting they had with developers. In that meeting (due to the mandatory 6 day work weeks) a developer asked if CDPR thought it was hypocritical to create a game about corporate exploitation while exploiting their staff... another asked why they had claimed the game was 'complete and playable' in January when it wasn't.
I daresay that you should probably make a new video agreeing with Jim Sterling.
ammmmmmm no
@Mikhail G why?
Grave already dug... Now he must lay in that bed. ⛏🛏
Except Jim Sterling is still wrong. The answer was never more delays.
@@SirBlackReeds That's a better answer than lying to people and taking their money on that lie.
Jim Sterling has countless negative qualities, and pretty much zero good ones, but one thing I don't feel gets talked about enough is just how UNFUNNY he is. Seriously, the guy is aggressively unfunny, like Seltzerberg-tier unfunny. The TERRIBLE jokes genuinely make his videos hard to sit through, even in small doses.
The customer doesn’t care about the effort made to make a product. Such a dumb take. If people really cared they wouldn’t be buying a smartphone made via child labor.
"we're already a minute and 20 seconds into the video, and we havent gotten to the point yet"
*one minute earlier, a minute into the video, you tell us to skip to 30 minutes into the video to get to the point...*
Hilarious.
I think it’s called prologue, still a damn long one
Sterling is the lard king/queen over a bunch trans activist.
@@erich5686 Very mature response. Your mummy will be very proud.
@@WizWiteKnight I guess it would have been more mature if I could have incorporated "mummy" into my sentence, but it's not too late. You and your mummy, just keep patting yourselves on the back.
@@erich5686 agreed. Hes fucking insufferable.
They went corrupt after cyberpunks failure
They got bought out by black water... I'm actually not joking this happened.
I worked as a game tester for 10 years. Jim cries about the "crunch" developers have to do, but I've actually lived it. Testers have to do crunch long before developers do, and often BECAUSE of the developers (They were late with a build or fucked something up). Not to mention the "crunch" developers do is often catered. Studio will buy them all pizza. I've even seen professional caterers come in while testers, who are paid a lot less, have to provide for themselves. The "Crunch" developers complain about is also usually their own fault by being late with or screwing up deliverables, or going home early when staying a couple hours could save them from crunch later.
Every fucking video you put out I like you more. Keep fighting the good fight my man.
I bet "cowardly, pathetic and useless"
have been used to describe Jim
at one time or another.
most likely by his whale of a wife
@@conan2096 husband *
I'm British myself, and yet i can't deal with his British voice. I have no idea who he is and after watching 3 minutes of this i' m glad i don't.
Remeber when people played games and just left it at that? I miss those days
Meh not me. I like talking about games and reading and watching videos about the game industry. Normies normally just play games and dont think about it. Yeah there may be many annoying stories but at least that shows people have passion
@@Stayler17 nigga said normies. No, normies play 2k, madden, fifa, or COD and don't think about it. You don't have to be invested into the politics or specifics of a game's developer or community to be passionate about it.
@Zeeko Zappo They should make your comment lines for an NPC in the game
Honestly, i always hated jim sterling since the beginning, I had a friend who loved jim sterling's way of journalism but i knew what jim was doing. He didn't really care about the issue. He's just a fear monger and an attention seeker. Time will always reveal people's true face. Honestly, I don't like Jim's Trans thing as well, I feel he's just a cross dresser and just wants to have an excuse to cross dress. To be honest, I find it insulting because I know trans people, They got through a lot of effort to look like a woman. I feel these type of people, people like Jim, just hiding their fetish in public by saying they are trans. Just putting a wig and a dress don't make you a woman. You want to identify as a woman, you better put the effort to look like one. He just looks like a fat guy in drags.
That's why I use this pfp (if someone read this message after june, it's a "pride flag" with a 🚫), there are a lot of people using this movement because it's convenient, I bet Sterling is using it to get views and being praised by Websites like Kotaku or Eurogamer.
He is a fat guy in drag
He's now wearing a dress. I think we can ignore his insane ramblings
3:58 you had that one golden opportunity to gradually zoom in for a great joke there and you wasted it. Just saying.
True enough. Editing this was hell, so I probably missed a lot of jokes lol
Jim used to be kind of funny, and had legit good criticisms of the gaming industry. Seems like he gave up on that entirely though the past few years
He thinks he's a woman now, he's had a full psychological break unfortunately
Bruh I don't know who the fk this jim is and I dont know how I watched 43 mins of this video but this rant about him is fking hilarious nad entertaining It made me laugh subscribed and liked
This did not age well 😂😂
I know right
@Tiago - You can timestamp the parts where he's wrong, if you're confident about that statement
@@unbearifiedbear1885 everything from 0:00 to 1:16:38
W A O W
For real tho... Jim Sterling is still a man.
this should teach you a valuable lesson that whenever you find yourself defending a multibillion corporation, know that you're in the wrong
The motte and bailey section is a really good way of putting it with these people. They thrive off of it.
Jim Sterling has developed such a strange resemblance to my grandma. Miss you Granny, you old fat lovely lady.
To be honest Jim should be thankful for capitalism. If not for it, he wouldn't have both the option and freedom to question his masculinity and gender as it were, let alone afford pursuing the surgery/hormonal treatment should he want it. The only transitions going on in gulags are from being alive to being a corpse after digging your own grave.
Not to mention food's much cheaper and accessible thanks to capitalism, and Jim's obviously been enjoying that fact, *alot.*
Cyber Console wolf how do you see a need to defend a creator in this comments,that doesnt even know or care about you? you should see a doctor
Holy shit you killed him dude
@Cyber Console wolf ad hominems sure are a sign of maturity
@Cyber Console wolf and the fact that you respond to a 3 week old comment is also laughtable
@Cyber Console wolf no,its not,its just retarded to do so in almost every comment
Considering where the raised fist symbol actually comes from I completely understand why they used that symbol.
This aged about as well as plant life in Chernobyl
Lmao @Syntheticman - you gotta admit this is true comedy 😅🤣😂😂😂
But plants are growing in chernobyl...i dont get the joke.
... Jim Sterling is still a man.
At least if they tell you in advance you know and can plan your schedule accordingly
I worked in a steal place and my favorite thing was showing up Friday for the night shift of 1 p.m. to whenever you're done and being told "Hey I know y'all are busy tonight but day shift is behind so y'all are going to have to show up at 6 a.m. Saturday". So I work my 12-13 hr shift then decide do I want to drive the 30ish min home to sleep in my bed for about 2 hr before I drive back or do I want to just sleep in my car in the parking lot
And I feel for your dad I've been there before and those checks look insanely nice until you keep looking and see what it is once they took all the taxes out
I like to come back to this video once in a while just to hear how wrong he was about cyberpunk, the cringe is real😆
To be fair a lot of people were wrong cause the developers lied their asses off.
I come to this to say how cyberpunk definitely rules even more now lol
Gives a while new spin on the term "backyard wrestling".
lol this is lol, never defend a company, i came for the lols
They should've just pushed 2077 back until next generation trying to force it into this one and I'm guessing shoehorning in reeves at some point made it a buggy piece of ish. I was lucky enough not to get most of the bugs and crashes most people did on the ps4 but I feel for y'all because it was crashing every other hour for my friend
I'll give them credit for actually sticking around and trying to fix that dumpster fire and I'm going to guess dropping free dlc for it because if they decide to charge for it I can't see anyone buying it
You make an hour long video feel like 15 min, good quality voiced opinion you have with littlr bias since you bring up general statistics, you deserve more subs
