It's gotten real bad with the Mr. Beast story. Content creators are shitting out 10-15 minute videos commentating other content creators' videos. What's even more irritating is they pad at least two minutes with "Now I'm not a lawyer, and I don't want to go into what actually happened, and I'm not accusing anyone of anything, and I'm not going to use the proper description of the crime because I may get deplatformed..." and my favorite "You should go watch the original video...also if you haven't watched my last video on this, you absolutely should..."
The ones who put out a lot of content, and cover a lot of news, but always clickbait and ramble piss me off. I'm not even one of the extreme haters of these two, but Tim Pool and The Quartering are both really bad at this. It's all Breaking News and Someone Does SOMETHING to Someone and It's TERRIBLE.
It's so obnoxious because, by sheer volume, they do cover important news, but they clickbait so hard I can't fucking be bothered, because it's usually bullshit, and often bullshit I've already seen, besides.
I really don't get how it's a sustainable growth pattern...but then again, it's probably the same reason there are any Democrat voters left. Say what you want about the shitty (but less shitty than it has been previously, yay!) Republican party...but you'd have to be retarded to vote Democrat...and yet half the people do. So I guess that same sort of mindset is why clickbait works.
It's still depressing; you only have to see like three of those people's vids to determine that the headlines are always exaggerated bullshit.
“We sourced a list of words from a third party company which included words for multiple languages that would not likely come up during gameplay, as game chat is primarily intended to be used for team coordination. We are currently in the process of revising the censored word list and making changes in real time,” they added.
This case is more understandable. They essentially contracted for a list of "bad words" in a language they didn't speak for the chat filter. I'm sure the game played fine.
If I were a dev and made this same mistake, I could play test the absolute shit out of it without realizing that someone added something controversial in the German word filters. Is a "Merkel" a political leader or a depraved sex act? I certainly don't know; could be either. The only way this particular one gets caught is if you proofread the entire filter list with the awareness of every language it covers.
My problem is that this third-party clearly sucks at their job and should be avoided, but protecting their identity lets them fuck up other studios' projects. There is a severe lack of accountability in business-to-business relationships because no one wants to say, "these guys are 0/5 star, don't ever hire," because they think it makes them look hard to work with.
Really it's every other review of this game that makes me doubtful. Mainly that the mech stuff and customization is surface level. Sounds like it's just an objective shooter with a robust monetization system.
Amazing Seasun Games Removes Censorship Of Donald Trump In ‘Mecha Break’ After Being Called Out By Grummz
Thank you. I hate how everyone feels everything has to be a video now. I shouldn't need a 20 minute video for a two minute read.
even worse, most of this youtubers NEVER post their sources under their description. Really pulling the ladder behind you assholes.

I saw a parody video about this once. It was only a few seconds long, spoofing YongYea:
"Microsoft bought Activision, there's the tweet, that's the news."

That's fair. Now name the third party.
