I just want to talk about the dichotomy between views on game design between legacy players and younger players like myself, and why there’s such a divide and what it’s doing to us as a community.

Talk about what you want to talk about. It’s not our job to piss on you for it.
That’s the YouTube commenters responsibility. 
Good luck to them I suppose. All 2 views I will get.
Now that is something interesting.
All these “State of the FGC” vids are a bunch of clickbait drama babble. There ain’t a lot of ground to be covered that older FGC heads didn’t. Even though cancel culture is disgusting, when we’re talking about the kind of shit that happened it’s important that the whole community stands as one and kick these sick bastards out.
Game design on the other hand is a much more interesting topic.

The people interested enough in the State of the FGC already know what it is. No one cares. I want to talk about why people think others care about their views on game design, what they are and what effect it’s having on us as a community.
I’m going to begin drafting the script today.

I had to wait for the fucking cockroach to stop flying and run up the fucking stairs to my bedroom.
I left the door to my living room open hoping that the cockroach would leave my house in the morning when I wake up.
So this morning, I crept downstairs. Nada. No cockroach.
Afternoon I went upstairs to my room. I thought I heard some insects wing buzzing. But I thought I was imagining things.
Went to play some ghost of Tsushima.
Evening time. Was going to my room to take my wallet and go out for dinner.
AND I GOT AMBUSHED BY THAT FUCKING COCKROACH AGAIN WTF. IT JUST DASHED OUT OF NOWHERE!!!
took bug spray. Tried to spray that fucking thing but it flew upstairs. AND I COULDN’T FIND THAT FUCKIBG THING!!! I checked both rooms and the toilet thoroughly and couldn’t find that stupid shit!
There’s 2 bedrooms upstairs so I took bugspray and sprayed the shit out of the two rooms and went downstairs because I was choking on bug spray.
Went to have dinner and wanted to take a short nap in my room before playing tekken with my friend and Zio.
I closed the windows and door, turned on the aircon and about to hop into bed and guess what I heard.
A FUCKING LOUD FLUTTER OF WINGS AND THERR WAS THAT FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT COCKROACH IN MY ROOM!!! IT WAS CHARGING STRAIGHT AT ME OMFG!!!
Fortunately the lights were on and I managed to swerve in time to avoid it, took the bug spray and sprayed the shit out of that fucking thing!!!
IT DIED!!! BUT I DIDN’T STOP THERE!!! I TOOK A FUCKING SLIPPER AND SMACKED THE SHIT OUT OF THAT FUCK!!!
The damage I inflicted on that fucking shit was enough to kill that piece of shit and all of its ancestors and descendants combined. It didn’t just die. IT DIEDED!!!
Watching the CPT now and enjoying some truffle cheese and crackers. Broski is such a good dhalsim lol.

Man, those look heavy.
…
I mean, the drawings. Those drawings look really heavy. The drawings I mean.
Yet more evidence that turning X fighting game male character into an Y female version of himself is always a successful improvement on design.
Can you imagine Sagat turned into a tall, swole, Amazonian thai woman? Don’t lie and tell me you wouldn’t like to see a highly flexible lady Dhalsim in action! Have you not seen the success of Master Raven over plain-ass Raven, Fatal Cutie Terry Bogard, new luscious long hair Seth over old depressing bald Seth? Do you dare to visualize SFV’s Abigail transformed into The Last of Us 2’s Abigail?
Them fighting game companies should just hire me already to revamp their rosters’ design.

Just a tip regarding the script bit, depending on how seriously you’re taking this. I did 8 or 10 episodes of a terrible solo podcast a year or two ago and learned quite a bit.
If you want to write a script and stick mostly to it, practice it aloud a few times. Make sure your words sound like a conversation, rather than just words on paper (if that makes sense, it’s not about pronunciation, but how the words meld and flow together).
Also, it’s good to read it aloud a lot so you’re mostly going off memory and skimming as you go so you don’t go off track.
I have a tendency to ramble, which was exacerbated when i was talking into a mic by myself. A script was better than point form for me, but it sounded terrible if i was just reading it.

Thanks!
Don’t worry about me, I’ve spent years debating and performing on stage, so making and following scripts is second nature. The biggest hurdle is actually getting up off my ass to do it.

So you want us to stop saying SF5 sucks?
No, but I think if people say SFV sucks, they should also have valid reasons why, not a bandwagon.

What you’re trying to make a video has been discussed multiple times in this thread from multiple angles.
I’m not really sure what you’ve seen that is going to bring a fresh perspective on it.

That’s not the subject of the video anyhow, I’m just answering your question.
You fucked up.
I told you.
When I was living by myself a couple years ago, I got up late in the night to go to the bathroom. Went back to bed mad drowsy and sleepy. When I was going to turn off my lamp, I saw a gigantic roach near it.
I immediately snapped awake, slowly backed out of the room to not startle it and grabbed a broom.
MFer was gone when I came back.
*I immediately started moving every single piece of furniture in my room at fuckin’ 3am to draw it out and damn near broke the broom on it when I found it.
You absolutely can’t let roaches escape, because they’ll breed like rabbits and do ninja ambushes at you.
Gotta man up and kill them on sight.

Seriously why is SNK doing collabs with everyone all the times though? it’s fucking insanity.
You shut your whore mouth! MacSplicer’s “state of the FGC” vid are some of the best yearly FGC content you can find.
(ok, ok, they’re completely different from the ones you allude too, but I gotta shill for the one content creator that has convinced me to donate to his Patreon)
In this thread.
I wonder how the broader FGC would react to the stuff we say around here. 
Do the cockroaches in Brazil fly?
The ones in Singapore fly and its FUCKING TERRIFYING!!!
And the one at my home yesterday was HUGE!!! It was like the Abigail of cockroaches!
