I can relate and respect that from an artistic/creative perspective. It has nothing to do with being a control freak, although working for him would sound like hell, it's more about giving it that special flavor that makes it unique when compared to everyone elses stuff... basically being original and expressing yourself.
Personally I prefer streamers who just play normally, I only follow a few 'skill' players because I just like the fun aspect of gaming, too much 'sweat' is worse than a bad player for my enjoyment.
It's true that sometimes vinny's play is bad enough to get him labeled as a journalist, but this time it was obviously the hack being janky, which is fair since it is alpha as fuck still, the trailer probibly made him think there was enough to showcase. cool concept though.
Vinny's obliviousness drives me up the wall at times, but you're right that there's some fun to be have in that kind of chaos. I'm also willing him to cut him slack since he's not some salty cuck who blames the games for his fuck-ups.
eh maybe im misremembering but i felt there has been times he's been on the verge of doing that
Oh sure, he can be salty every once in a while. I'm saying I like that he doesn't make a habit of it like other Lets Players.
mono who is in this video also out out a documentary on this
Maybe I'm remembering wrong, when he played the San Andreas remake he was quite surprised how good the soundtrack is, but he didn't know Faith No More, or at least their song Epic.
The more I think about it, it honestly feels Vinny is one of those people that absolutely can't stand change in any way, shape, or form. He only listens to music from old bands and the musicians from that era that still do stuff. He has a certain jadedness to most modern games as opposed to ones from his childhood, even going as far as to be THOSE people that hate when they make any minor changes in remasters/remakes. And most of the media he does follow is once again just stuff he remembers enjoying when he was young. Like there is thinking things used to be so much better when you were younger, and then there is refusing to move along with the times.
my autism can sympathize with that, but yeah i agree with vinny being afraid of change, its not just new games though, his attitude also extends to old games he hasn't played. The fact that Silent Hill 1 happened was miracle since days before he was saying he probably wouldn't play it
While stuff like the FF7 Remake do come to mind, I'm more talking about more lightweight remakes that at most change the music, graphics, and MAYBE change a gameplay aspect people openly complain about.
