He became a snob and even threw in a condescending "I grew up" statement as his reason for accepting woke trash in video games. Maturity has nothing to do with accepting a radical agenda pushed into entertainment. It's more like he's regressed.

Upper Echelon slowly went from pointing out corpo scummy business to bootlicking them, ironic, he became the thing he stood up against

"you can ignore half the game, so why are people judging the game by that half? just enjoy the other half instead!"

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qWAjSjVM5Lo&t=667">11:07</a> God, I hate the "choices" argument. It's right there with "why are you so mad, bruh, it's just a video game, bruh"<br>It's because that choice shouldn't exist in that setting. It's like adding an assault rifle to a medieval fantasy game. Not as a cheat or an easter egg, but as is. "Why you so mad, the game doesn't FORCE you to use the assault rifle, it's a choice, bruh, why would you be against more choices bruh?"

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qWAjSjVM5Lo&t=1254">20:54</a> i believe canon mode sets nobunagas sister as default romance for the story. Which is worse ultimately

Love how he just brushes off the whole romance thing like... bruh... nobunaga's sister isn't just some "romance" she's prob one of the most influential woman in japanese history and her descendants are still alive, one of the things she was known for was her loyalty to her husband and here they have her just casually cheating on him

Upper Echelon and The Act Man together would make a great Shill Team 6.

Wasn‘t there a Femenist in Red Dead Redemtion 2 that you could OPTIONALLY feed to an Alligator? Wonder why Journalists got upset about that…

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qWAjSjVM5Lo&t=210">3:30</a> Ah yes.<br>Shadows is clearly not the failure that we claim.<br>So much so that Ubisoft had to sell out to Tencent.<br><br>The cringe is unreal.

I appreciate that you made it through his slop AND managed to record a video on it. The guy desperately wants to be seen as impartial and above everything, he fails at both while his ego inflates as if to physically lift him above the issues thus ultimately delivering a flatulence sniffing, indignant, holier than thou, opinion on the topic.

Upper Echelon was lying about canon mode removing gay stuff, since Ubisoft made it canon that the chick was a lesbian.
