JonTron Salt - feat. the growing Yooka-Laylee shitstorm (Mighty No. 9 2.0)

[TheScooper]

That's it? that's fucking it? god damn how pathetic, and ohhh boy those voices got annoying fast.

 

[Xerxes IX]

All of this over a character you don't even actually see?

It looks like Yooka-Laylee's gotten a lot of flak for the voices just from looking at a few videos, too.

 

[Robotron]

Well folks, the scene featuring Jon's vocal work in Yooka-Laylee has been found.

I bet Playtonic and Team 17 felt removing Jon from this huge scene was worth the shitstorm and damaged reputation.

Playtonic, you literally made a big deal over people possibly getting triggered over an obscure cameo scene like this!

That's it? People went and lost their shit over this? Playtonic/Team 17 lost close to 100k over this? Of all the dumb shit to get worked up over.

literally shit lol

 

[The Great Chandler]

Anti-climatic already? Good.

 

[TowinKarz]

Seriously, the more that comes out, the more this seems like an accidental panic move by a group of people who actually really do want to make a game. I hope it gets forgotten and we all can be bigger adults for it.

Is Gaf saying anything?

Is Gaf saying anything?

I found the video on Neogaf in the dedicated thread for YL, but there hasn't been a peep since. Funny, isn't it?

Thank heavens they did the right thing and removed those grunts.

One can only imagine how many rapes were prevented by excising this one clip.

This video got a bunch of them reeing because dunkey didn't say enough bad things about JonTron. Here's some stuff from the first two pages. The thread is currently at 6.

His mention of the JonTron situation is... interesting.

Ya, wtf was that about.

Basically 'he said dumb shit haha let's play it off he's a good guy'

Sad all these YouTubers feel the need to defend their piece of shit friends

What's with the JonTron bullshit? Dunkey is an idiot, I guess. Or spineless. Or maybe he's also a shitty person.

I'm reading between the lines there because his follow up was exactly as you said, "please don't publicly humiliate this guy"

Yes, lets play off Jontron's multiple racist remarks as jokes.
What a fucking asshole that people are absolutely going to defend for some reason.

Yeah, first thing I noticed.

Sure, he wad removed because he said he wasn't impressed by Zelda and not because he said some racist shit, suuuuure bud.

How autistic are you to not be able to tell that was a joke?

Even racism has a defense force.

Not picking a side isn't fine when it comes to this stuff.

Not picking a side when it comes to blatant racism isn't fine.

Dunkey better not be revealed as a hateful shithead in the next few months. I like his videos

It seemed like a way of dodging condemning him, but I could have read it wrong.

To confirm that he was against the decision to remove jontron from the game thus satisfying his fanbase while simultaneous not strictly taking either side. So basically he is a coward.

Wow.

Are all of these YouTubers hateful ?

I'm not into the scene at all, but I'm glad I'm not.

Are some of these Yooka Laylee negative reviews (e.g. I saw a 2/10) just people trying to kick back over the (justified, imo) JonTron removal? Disgusting if this is the case...

Yeah, I'm sure Josh and James really agree with JonTron.

Yep, and predictable this lends to mountain of "it's just a joke" post. Saying "Wealthy blacks also commit more crime than poor whites, that's a fact. Yeah, look it up" is not a joke.

Not sure if I should be mad about the Jon Tron mention. Didn't seem like he was defending him. Low scores of Zelda were met with huge criticism.

Craaaap. I don't watch much in the way of youtube video game junk, but I really liked Dunkey. It will be disheartening if he also partakes of racist/bigoted douchebaggery. Is everyone on youtube a bit shitty in the end? How deep does it go?

Like, I actually found Dunkey funny at times; basically the only one so far.

In contrast, I like Jim Sterling's discussions, but, his comedy is pretty poor most of the time.

Gah, I guess I really am getting old.

i can't decide how i feel about the jontron part

i don't want to give up on Dunkey but i kind of feel like i should

edit - gotta love all the open nazis in the comment section though.

"Aw geez Rick it looks like we triggered someone."

A lot of people knew Jontron was in the game. They announced it publicly.

I fail to see how saying "Hey, we don't support racism" is arrogant.

I like dunkey's videos but I'm pretty sure he is/was friends with Jontron. Not too surprising for him to "defend" him a bit in this video, but it is disappointing.

He did say he was okay with Jontron being taking out, but that might have been part of the joke. Just not in public which is iffy.

The amount of threads that get derailed and locked due to #GAMERGATE is really getting out of hand.

It really is more guilt by association garbage. So here are two threads where they rush out to agree with ISIS. http://archive.is/ndjzX http://archive.is/HSw30 Here are two more threads where they defend pedophiles. https://archive.is/QSOUo https://archive.is/CtxDX There are actually a lot more than just two threads defending pedos.

Also dunk gave the game 2/5.

They're discussing an obvious joke instead of the actual content of the video. Dunkey's an entertainer he gains nothing from talking about controversy like this in what is supposed to a funny and and entertaining video (which it was)

It seems nowadays it's no longer possible to be mixed about a situation, you either have to be 100% on board against whatever seems to be racist at the moment, no matter what evidence there is against it, or people end up considering you as an even worse racist then the enemy.

Guess what I got in the mail today for free:

Should I stream it or/and upload videos? Sorry for the cat boobs.


Unrelated: I just found out some furry youtuber paid 5,000 dollars to be in the game:

 

[Intelligent Calcium]

NeoGaf sperging

Sounds like Dunkey's next. They're turning into a knock-off Kiwi Farms, but their word for lolcow is "shitty person", instead of mocking them they act offended and weening is mandatory.

What I'm saying is people should come here to discuss video games.

Is this mutt blind? He says he doesn't notice any performance problems, yet every time he does a roll the game is clearly chugging.

How did furries go beyond a disgusting subculture into being allowed to have over 350,000 subscribers on Youtube? If a furry was one of my biggest fans, I'd question everything I did in my life.
