I don't think it matters, and giving this any attention is blowing it out of proportion. But anyway that's just my opinion. I was obviously exaggerating for the above reasons. I guess I just wish people would scrutinise things that actually matter to the same degree they do with video games.
Ohhhh the outrage!! How could he have said that he enjoyed a game that he only disclosed was sponsored in the description of the video!? Ohhh what a world we live in!! How can we trust anything ever again?! I can't go on knowing that a youtuber got paid to show a game and said he liked it! This is such a travesty! Mankind will never recover from the depths of depravity that this act has dragged us to! Despair! DESPAIR!!
I usually wait for a few weeks after a game comes out. That's when all the people who have invested a tonne of time with the game will come back and make a big stink about the game's shortcomings, stuff the reviewers missed because they couldn't spent 200 hours with one game. If I think I can deal with that and the game still seems really good then I buy it. Last year I bought maybe 5 games in total. You miss out on the forum buzz but you can always go back to that. Nothing's worse than buying into a game just because of the buzz and finding out you don't like it or find it uninteresting.
Everytime I read EU I automatically think European Union, I have to put real mental effort to think Enemy Unknown. That game is just called XCom: European Union for me now.
