  1. I, a person of culture, am greatly offended by your accusations against Huniepop. You have slandered the experience as "porn" and "a clone," when in reality, it is a journey of passion and love. I have sensed that you do not do your research regarding "porn," so I will have to do what's necessary: dislike all of your videos and unsubscribe. Huniepop is not a game, it is art passed down by the love faires themselves. Since our feeble minds do not comprehend the extent of how realistic the game itself is, Huniecorp decided to make it into a more consumable experience. Mr. Scotch the Woz, I have already called my lawyer; you'll be hearing from him soon. The trial starts tomorrow. I hope you are ready to lose your career. Your crimes must not go unpunished.

  3. people never remember the other games that came out before overwatch (gigantic, Battleborn plants vs zombies garden warfare, orcs must die unchained, global agenda, etc)

    for example Hammond is a copy of Citron (Plants vs Zombies Garden Warfare) with the ultimate of Ernest (Battleborn) or soldier 76 is a copy of the soldier (Plants vs Zombies Garden Warfare) or oscar mike (battleborn)

    But the game that deserves more recognition for the mechanics of Overwatch is GIGANTIC, which was announced in 2013 but nobody remembers it,

  4. Wow, is there a Wozniak who wears polos, too?
    I don't think the version exclusives of PKMN would fly nowadays, but it was acceptable when they did it ("to encourage trading") and it's become grandfathered into immunity ever since. Now it's tradition, to the point that it'd probably be weird if they didn't do it.

  5. You certainly nailed Scott's style.

    Though I don't want this to come off the wrong way, I still feel worth commenting that I feel Paladins was treated really harsh and unfairly. Makoa is a Roadhog clone because they both have hooks? Viktor is a Soldier 76 clone because they both run and shoot? Androxus is a Reaper and Mccree clone because he's edgy and uses a revolver? I don't even see how you could say Io is an Ana clone when their only similarity is that they can both heal. They're really base level comparisons often only made about a singular ability or character design choice, and brushing the characters and the whole game off as a cheap clone feels really unfair and uninformed. It's like brushing off Overwatch because the other comparisons you yourself made between various characters like Medic and Mercy or Demoman and Junkrat, not to mention other comparisons like Ana's healing being similar to Medic's Crossbow, or Sombra having invisibility like the Spy or Skye. That's not even mentioning how it's always the same few characters brought up as basic examples, and never going deeper beyond the base similar abilities and how the characters can differ from each other beyond it in regards to other abilities, general playstyle or anything, along with usually ignoring other unique features of Paladins, like talents and loadouts which were brushed off as an afterthought in this video.

    I'm not saying that Paladins has never added features or taken inspiration from things similar in Overwatch, but as mentioned, brushing off the whole game as bad or a cheap clone is ridiculously unfair. Besides, not like the same hasn't held true in reverse, it's not as if Overwatch has never added things similar to other games, aside from TF2. Feels like a huge double standard, Overwatch has a few similar abilities to TF2, but because they add new characters instead of weapons and have set team sizes, they're in the clear, while Paladins isn't for some reason despite having their own differences. Ironically, you mentioned more differences between Paladins and Overwatch than you did with it and TF2.

    I get this is an April Fools parody video, but even so, compared to how other games were treated, Paladins was really bashed on hard. I'd personally advise you give the game more of a shot beyond playing a round or two of the characters most often said to be clones because of a basic similarity or two, but that's my take.

    I do hope this comment doesn't come off the wrong way. I don't want to start a fight or anything. Just felt the need to mention these things.

  6. Even though his video style is like Scott's, he himself and his channel logo looks more like Charlie slimecicle
    Edit: didn't mean that in a bad thing. You actually uploaded in two month's.
