Promoting smaller creators is cool but this edit is a mess. Clips repeated multiple times on a super long video and annoying sounding "static" frequently really let this compilation down
Most people don't know this, but the reason the modern 9-5 was introduced by the government was to save computation cost. We live in a simulation, and driving to work is actually a cleverly disguised loading screen.
So… I've wasted a fair share of my time in the comments of this video, as well as comments of episode 217 and managed to find a pattern of criticism towards EFAP or a pattern of defense for Synthetic Man; there seems to be some arguments which repeat enough to be considered as "the main arguments" and so I'd like to list them and somewhat address them.
MauLer is a terrible person because he edited Synthetic Man's video and stream footage in a way to make him look bad. – From what I've seen, all that MauLer did was take clips from Synthetic's stream and juxtapose them with clips from his review to show contradictions in his statements and overall show how disingenuous and poorly done his review was… MauLer also collected clips of him saying some highly regrettable if not offensive things or some really terrible "jokes", let's just call them that for the benefit of his fans. And again, I don't see what wrong has MauLer done here, you can still watch them with full context on his vods and that doesn't make it any better.
This whole EFAP episode was done in bad faith. – I struggle to se why; to me it seems that they've given Synthetic the same treatment they would to any other creator they criticized/ridiculed. EFAP might have come with a slight bias towards the video because pretty much everyone on the internet said how bad it was, so there was a certain expectation (and Synthetic didn't subvert it).
MauLer is a coward for not inviting Synthetic Man on the podcast. – EFAP has a policy of not inviting creators while their video is being covered; if they want to defend themselves, they have to contact MauLer and arrange a debate for a future episode. In this situation, we seem to have an exception as MauLer said that he'll most likely not allow Synthetic on EFAP because he proved himself to be rather unfitting for a civil debate: he showed his poor behaviour and habit of saying some outlandish and possibly offensive things, he broke some of the most basic and well respected rules of YouTube and ordered his viewers to raid and dislike bomb a video of another creator, by his own admission said that if he was invited he'd probably just get angry and throw slurs at the hosts, and I've learned from his fans that he apparently has problems with managing his emotions, especially anger, which on it's own is already a big problem in the case of a debate. As much as I'd like to see Synthetic Man have a debate, I understand MauLer's concerns and see why he wants to draw a line in this case.
EFAP just wanted to gang up on a smaller creator. – I haven't seen an indication of that, EFAP has covered both smaller and bigger creators and it never made a difference in treatment. Having less subscribers doesn't shield someone from criticism by creators with more subscribers.
EFAP are just a bunch of consoomers. – If you've watched more than one episode of EFAP, you should know that this is not true. This podcast has long time ago become (and still is) somewhat famous (or infamous) for critiquing and going against some of the most popular, big, mainstream media products. Just because they happened find some exceptions worth defending doesn't change this fact.
EFAP members are soy-beta-cucks and "bundles of sticks" while Synthetic Man is a sigma-alpha-chad so that means he's right. – I mean… This is a bulletproof argument, can't really say anything against it. My only option is to surrender and give you the win.
Those are just some of my personal observations and thoughts.
Watching this was like watching a car crash… And then watching the victims slowly die in agony… And then watching their funerals get interrupted by a drunk hobo who vomits on their coffins… And then watching families of the deceased get cancer and die in a slow agony over the years as well.
First hour I could grant he's just poorly elocuting his personal dislike for the story, and being emotionally disinvested in the games direction. Just a guy bitching about a game he doesn't like, because he's not interested. Fine, acceptable. the next 2 hours it becomes apparent he's actively hating it for no real reasons, simply justifying his dislike with bland assertions and proclamations. No evidence or thought just emotive reasoning. Somewhere along the line I realised he's just being contrarian with no real stance on what would be good, he's paid no attention to the story so his 'critiques' are immediately worthless. With regards to gameplay his most cogent criticism is battle arena then hallway, to the next battle arena. which is just how games work, you cant reasonably have every inch of space be traversable, without it being an 'open world', which bring in its own problems.
Then he just shits on everyone with 'smug-ross' levels of self satisfaction.
He throws out a lot of buzzwords while not actually holding positions on the anti-woke front. Simply put if he doesn't like it, it's woke. Waste of braincells, lazy in the extreme, self-contradictory, fragile, and inconsistent. Typical youtuber with a slightly different coat of paint.
It's not even worth defending the game at this point. Whether you like it or don't can't we all just agree that this whole mess is petty and childish for everyone involved? Just me? Alright.
Ironically, listening to this man complain about this game makes me want to pick it up even more because holy shit, his arguments against it are so bad, they're advertisements for it.
Dude, yes! The cut to turning off aim assist and setting the other settings to resolve the only useful points he would have made had they not been configurable… Perfection.
After watching this on #208 all i can say is i could not of watched this without the actual crew helping me deal with this. thank you all… with that said i also regret now knowing about this creature from another planet.
This is the type of video I will have on for background noise while playing a game that I don't mind my lovely cocktail of ADHD and Asperger's kicking in when I over focus on the game 10 minutes in(like always) so I don't pay attention to what's being said so I can remain a function human being after hearing said video as it's clear nothing of value would be lost and I won't have to repeat what I missed.
what exactly compels someone to make a FOUR HOUR video on another youtuber with significantly less subs than them just because they have different opinions on video games? Wth, he also has another ELEVEN HOUR one??? Dude is living in your head completely rent free bro, this is some obsessive personality stuff here.
I watched another stream tackling a Synthetic Man video and thought I'd check out his channel. Thanks to this video I don't have to waste my time anymore lol
Edit: I only got 40 minutes in and already I have a brain hemorrhage
It's weird how you'd use the same type of strat of taking unrelated points to demerit his points and taking his obvious trolling as gospel, just like the ppl you and your Fap crew make fun of. Hypocrites 🙄
Synthetic Man- Short unbiased completely free of gaming industry shilling reviews done with a disregard for modern sensibilities. Mauler- 4 hours of selective editing character assassination garbage. Wow I wonder who's actually worth watching.
Only thing's I would give a coin toss (agree on?) on this scatter brain's ramplings are about the obvious "woke undertones & desing choices" with GOW/Ragnarok
Those I can agree with where's my ⌛ body types??? for FEMALE characters??!!

THE SHE-HULK VILLAN!!
THE SHE-HULK VILLAN IS REAL!!!
I have decided to stop watching before he completely melts frontal cortex.
New GoW is very overrated imo. Not a bad game but any means. A very good one even. But the gameplay is not the strongest aspect or anything special.

L take form mauler
Mauler this was in bad faith and malicious Fuxk you and the rest of the cast
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TGv6bc5fLPo&ab_channel=Nerdrotic I like how Mauler has a podcast with nerdrotic yet makes fun of Synthetic Man
This is a 4 hour meme of "Congratulations, you've just played yourself"

Watching this man shows me who I could've become if I haven't grown up after turning 18… Chilling thought.

Honestly I'm just wondering why did you go through the trouble of editing this thing together.
This dude has such a weird obsession with Mauler liking the game. He nags on about it like a child moaning about how unfair his parents are.
It's not even worth defending the game at this point. Whether you like it or don't can't we all just agree that this whole mess is petty and childish for everyone involved? Just me? Alright.
Shades of DSP

the last 30 minutes is something else
Dude, yes! The cut to turning off aim assist and setting the other settings to resolve the only useful points he would have made had they not been configurable… Perfection.
Mauler has some thin skin. Enjoy your goyslop.
This guy has the IQ of Tapioca Pudding. Also hearing him boast about probably playing twice as may games or whatever as someone else was just sad

Remember when games had…gameplay? Hold up, let me phrase it better…
Remember when games prioritized fun gameplay over cutscenes and "deep" story?
what exactly compels someone to make a FOUR HOUR video on another youtuber with significantly less subs than them just because they have different opinions on video games? Wth, he also has another ELEVEN HOUR one??? Dude is living in your head completely rent free bro, this is some obsessive personality stuff here.

MooLer is confirmed God of Soy fanboy

Imagine defending this guy. You would have to have the same amount of brain cells as him….which is 0.
Synthetic Man- Short unbiased completely free of gaming industry shilling reviews done with a disregard for modern sensibilities. Mauler- 4 hours of selective editing character assassination garbage. Wow I wonder who's actually worth watching.
Only thing's I would give a coin toss (agree on?) on this scatter brain's ramplings are about the obvious "woke undertones & desing choices" with GOW/Ragnarok
Those I can agree with where's my ⌛ body types??? for FEMALE characters??!!
Also the lag of tasteful "nudity" aswell…
That's about it
