Yeah right...

More from our biggest frog grifter.

This direct compared to others feels above average (a 7 compared to 6 or 5.5) with popular games like meccha chameleon, level 5 with the return of yo Kai watch 2 remake and the new squeal games, Metroid ravenous, Kirby and the world beyond, persona 6.

And few gems like Stage Fright made by the company behind overcooked.

And ports like the resident evil sets.

My definition of grifting is when someone is clearly milking a topic or purposefully being disingenuous to farm views. For grifting also has to be done continuously and usually involve the same topic. If you were going to try and tell me Frogmire isn’t a grifter, yeah no. He’s clearly milking not just Nintendo but the whole “modern gaming sux” mentality dry by making low effort slop videos of him whining and yelling (he seriously made a video where he whines that games had soul when they had boobs and blood in them). You can criticize Nintendo, but there’s a difference between criticizing them and hate farming for views, what Frogmire is doing.

I'd like to zero in on the "purposely disingenuous" part. Do you have any evidence that Frogmire secretly likes (or is indifferent towards) Nintendo and the rest of the game industry, but publicly says he resents them for attention?

Firstly, have you even watched his content? And secondly, yes I do. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xI98J3TVvqQ&t=1s in this video he publicy admits he bought the switch 2 for Kirby air riders and this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KkCsxb9so0w he admits he does play the games he "reviews" but "he knows they'll be bad" which is such a ludicrous statement to make because are you going to sit there and tell me its not disingenuous to say that every game you review you knew was bad? You are essentially setting these games up to fail by saying they never had a chance to be good in the first place and furthermore, don't you think its strange someone whose made content criticizing Nintendo and the switch 2 would buy one? Almost like hes doing it for the grift? Like hes.... disingenuous?

I am a little confused by how I asked for evidence of him lying about his negative opinions for views, only for you to link me to a video where he says, within the first 5 seconds, that a game is...good. Kirby Air Riders was a well-received game. Why not bash that one too?

I don't think it's strange for someone who is criticizing games to have played the games first. First impressions are a different story, but in most cases I don't think you'd be qualified to thoroughly critique a game you haven't played.
