As someone who is currently in artschool, it is an alarmingly common thing for students with stereotypical DeviantArt style artwork skills come in an claim that "this is my style" in an attempt to wave away any criticism and opportunities of improving. Put them in any life drawing class and they're completely lost. The idea that you need to master the fundamentals before you can break off doing your own thing is an important lesson many of them need to learn. I assume this extends to other creative fields too.

Shooting Teddy Roosevelt will not work. One guy shot him and not only did it not kill him, Teddy gave a speech immediately afterwards. He even showed off his still bleeding wound. The bullet pierced a metal eyeglass case in his chest and pierced the folded pages of his speech, but still had enough energy to pierce his chest but not hit the lungs. In showing off his wound, Teddy proclaimed, *"Ladies and gentlemen, I don't know whether you fully understand that I have just been shot, but it takes more than that to kill a Bull Moose!"* He lived with the bullet in his chest for the rest of his life.

The first time I saw an episode of Zero Punctuation was on an episode of G4's X-Play. It might have even been a "Fully Ramblomatic" episode. What a long journey you've been on Yahtzee. To think this kind of content was once on TV albeit briefly is wild.

@BurntFrost

I can't imagine Yahtzee being on TV without just being one long string of censor beeps.

I am appalled that Yahtzee showed a president getting shot in the chest and giving zero fucks and it was NOT Teddy Roosevelt. Who got shot in the chest and gave no fucks, going on to do a speech anyway.

His ranting at the story mission progress and schedules in the game is the same rant as honest game trailers. They both mention it being Wednesday when they need to get to a bean store that opens on Monday and having to be in a coma to get to that time.

I've always admired that despite not having lived in the UK for many years now Yahtzee continuously makes reference to British culture. I guess it's hard to shake you roots.

You know, I would almost say Swery feels like he's flipping off the weebs with the whole "America through the lens of television" by being like them, but the cultures switched. In a trolling way, not a passive-aggressive with hatred kinda way.

no no no. Swery knew _exactly_ what he was doing when it came to game design. he knew EXACTLY. THE LORD HUNGERS-GERS-ERS-ERS-RS!!!

The comparison to Twin Peaks is pretty spot-on. As long as you forgive basically...everything and just 'go with it', you'll find a quirky and captivating main character! You pretty much won't enjoy any other part of it though. Enjoy?

"The game is a sandbox action adventure if the sandbox was 100 yards wide and half a centimeter deep" Actually a really good way to describe an empty sandbox game
