Evil Linus meme aside, it's big time damage control at LMG right now: https://youtu.be/0cTpTMl8kFY

As usually happens with stuff like this, once started, many others will come out of the woodwork and it's already started: https://lemm.ee/post/4433736. Of course we have to take some of these things with a grain of salt. However, if even a tiny bit of what Madison went through is true, this is unbelievably horrible.

I'm sure there will be plenty of LMG/LTT fans that will take this apology and happily move on. I for one will not.

I like GN in theory but they are boring as fuck. Even some of the B tier presenters on LTT like Plouffe are more interesting to watch/listen to than Steve.

that begs the question, are you looking for entertainment or information?

[-] shitescalates@midwest.social 9 points 1 year ago

Even ignoring the entertainment factor, Steve is too long winded and doesn't convey much subjectivity. I understand objectivity is generally favored in reviews, but subjectivity is also desired, especially in a video. Otherwise you can just read the data.

eh, I agree that he gets long winded especially when it's just a bunch of data that he goes through in a review, but I don't agree on the lack of subjectivity. IMO he's plenty clear about what he personally thinks about the things they review
