            He has literally said that the MS Paint doodles aren’t meant to be super descriptive or helpful. He started doing it in his meetings at Blizzard, because he found that any visual aid was good at keeping executives’ attention. Whenever he had to do a presentation, he’d use MS Paint every few minutes to keep them focused.

            And now he does the same with his viewers. He busts out MS Paint every few minutes, just to refocus the viewers and keep them engaged. It’s not to help with whatever he’s describing; it’s just to keep the viewers engaged, so he keeps making money off of them.

            To his credit, at least he admits this. It’s not like he’s hiding his strategy. He just does whatever will push him to the top of the algorithms and keep viewers engaged.

                I kinda hate the guy so it's hard for me to keep the tone neutral but I'll try my best.

                Long story short: He's a popular streamer that had a few controversies that caused many people labelled him as arrogant or egotistical.

                The latest one is his take on the "stop killing games" initiative that he was against. He had a video a few months ago were he misrepresentated the movement and spread misinformation (whether or not this was intentional or misinformed is up for debate) and caused a significant drop in the momentum of the movement, refusing to accept any criticism and doubling down on things. That was until recently were the initiative was in the last month and a half before the big deadline at only around 50% of the required signatures, but then huge momentum sprung up with a lot of people marking him as the "villain" of the movement and because of his controversy before it wasn't long before word spread.

                This has obviously led to harassment of the guy(which I feel is too far personally) which he responded to by tripling down on his opinion causing further being labelled as the villain. Eventually the momentum carried it over the finish and people are happy that he didn't get his way.

                      What u attempt to accomplish? Maintaining games also takes time and effort and server costs and they likely kill them to save costs.

                        I'm sick of that excuse. The whole I'm dumb or I don't know or it's for the algorithm excuses people make to try and deflect criticism. Guess I've just seen to many people of prominence use that excuse one to many times over the years.

                              When games put DRM in them that requires a server

                              And I buy that game

                              And then they take away that server

                              I want my money back

                              Or for them to patch the game so it works

                              It’s not fucking hard to figure out

                                It’s playing the game by the rules as written. If the Game Master is upset at a player for using their own rules against them, that’s the GM’s fault. I can’t begrudge a guy manipulating a mega corporation (in this case, manipulating Google/YouTube’s algorithms) for profit. He needs viewer retention to stay at the top of the algorithm, so that’s what he’s doing.

                                  then don't make single player games (or sections of games) require a server.

                                    In Ross' video, IIRC, he said 110% was good, 120% was pretty safe, and 140% was very safe.

                                      I mean, he's said before that shitty code doesn't make for a good or bad game. He gave examples of lots of successful games that have "bad" code and that it doesn't matter and people should just make games.

                                          I've just heard so many of the same excuses for even scummier people over the years of always shifting the blame to justify whatever is necessary to get the bag. The excuses seem ever less convincing.
