razbuten: now I can finally tell people that they are wrong about the dlc because joseph said so

sry4head: Im a Witcher

xvct2661: This witcher footage looks kind of fuck up i think you should check obs joe

bumberquest3031: A pokemon called "Git Gud" that evolves into "Skill Issue" is the funniest analogy I've ever heard for the current state of the fan base.

Aerolfoz: Streamer Joe has breached containment into the world of Video Joe.

pabloarias9734: HAVEN'T PLAYED A PROPER VIDEO GAME SINCE DECEMBER HE SAYS. HE DOESN'T WANT YOU TO KNOW THE TRUTH. HE DOESN'T WANT YOU TO KNOW WHO HE REALLY IS. WATCH THE STREAMS WATCH THE VOD CHANNELS

zdrav4o2: Okay, I'll cancel my plans for tonight

emdee7733: "i think this is the best dlc fromsoft has made. because sekiro didn't get one" he's so gigantic brained

kisaragi-hiu: I'm legitimately happy to see you upload twice in a year, a sign of getting out of a sort of production hell.

JDizzle785: “Even the lore people seem to be disappointed in the DLC’s ending because there was nothing there, and they’re usually the champions of seeing so much when there’s nothing”

RTGame: Hello Satan, its so good to see you upload again <3

alltimelowly9913: At this point, I'm going to name my firstborn "Joseph Anderson's Witcher 3 review" just so I can finally look at something with that name.

Trio3224: Only an hour and a half? This is basically a YouTube short by Joseph Anderson standards.

roramdin: get a load of this shattered masterpiece

Mattev2309: Why are we still here? Just to suffer?

realkingofantarctica: Joseph is like an action hero, wanting to retire but always getting pulled into one last job. Although in his case, the job is just making unpopular gaming opinions.

APlayfulLittleBlend: I can't even describe how funny it would be if the Witcher 3 retrospective was like an exactly 10 minute long video with a midroll me undies sponsorship

alexanderbyrnes915: Joe, the writing and editing in this video are at a whole other level, it really feels like you've found a perfect groove of snark, puns, and good pacing, and really distilled your voice as a creator into its best form. Good shit

mickeyzhou9863: It's not input reading! The game just instantly reponds to the animation... that you inputed. Some people on Reddit legitmately think that's a gotcha and that the game is beyond any criticsim.

GBlockbreaker: Rellana:

-cool boss

-important in lore

-sexy

-awesome moves

-good music

-no cutscene

Random Bridge in Volcano Manor:

-not a boss

-not important in lore

-not sexy

-no moves

-no music

-cutscene

Omnipotentmonkey: "I loved Shadow of the Erdtree"

Fucking hell, that got me, after all that build up, this fucking killed me.

Stonesands: “Mr. President, a second Joseph Anderson video has hit the Elden Ring community.”

meccuterrin: "You Deserve To Live in Moncton For What You Have Done" is such a strong expression of hatred.

Laphi_desu: I knew that reddit post was fake when it didn't start with something like "Am I the only one"

shankypanky8879: The best part was looking at the live chat when the toxic part of Joseph's fanbase, waiting desperately for Joseph to hate on the DLC, heard him saying that he loved the DLC.

mizel101: Oh shit, this reminds me that I haven't read the pinned comment on the Lies of P video in a while! I'm sorry I fell asleep on my guard.

blkhailink5963: He gets funnier after each weeb game he plays

davidpowell2886: "I haven't played a proper video game since December."

DID UMINEKO MEAN NOTHING TO YOU?!?!

pabloarias9734: Joseph Anderson videos have become increasingly hilarious and its because of the weeb streams. The idea that comedy comes from a life of suffering has never been more true due to the observable increase is hilarity after chat has put joe through suffering

abyssalleviathan5148: “The DLC has FromSoft’s best boss roster, even better than DS3’s.”

This take from Joseph was even more surprising than Radahn being the final boss.

ThatBoyAqua: Finally, my opinion of the dlc has arrived

jonahbrown5669: Maybe the Witcher 3 video were the friends we made along the way

biocta: The absolute madman. He thought he was being a contrarian by criticizing Elden Ring, realized he accidentally agreed with the fanbase, so he went back to contrarianism with Shadow of the Erdtree by defending it from the angry fanbase.

rayvon7534: "Reddit DM's, the worst kind" I cannot agree with this more

bobbemis8911: it would be so funny if this was actually the witcher 3 video

Umezete: The most vexing thing about "git gud," is it just started as a joke because quite frankly, alot of problems new people had with the souls combat is just not being used to the souls combat. So the meme started because any advice was basically "I mean... you suck, you're supposed to suck, you just started playing. Play more, you learn more, you stop sucking. You get good."

I think the reason it got so insufferable in elden ring was the community grew and the old hats who used it ironically were divided into people who dropped it or people who trolled with it and the new smug bastards that picked it up did so cause "they got good" and like being able to put people down.

Either way the meme has evolved into something meaner and it's sad. It used to be a little community in-joke and now it's actually just a plain old insult.

markshamp3699: My opinion of the final boss is that he's super cool, amazing awesome and i never want to see anything like it again for the rest of my fucking life.

mattys_room: That line about fanboys never having real authority figures in their lives, and the game becoming their “surrogate parent” was so scathing. You really popped off with that one.

Great video

Nipah.Auauau: There's nothing more cathartic then telling a Fromdrone that X boss is bad because Y, have them go on a tirade about how you just don't "get" Fromsoft's "genius" and how you need to "git gud", only for Fromsoft to update the exact changes you suggested several months afterword.

ramimansi8511: - So here is the entire miyazaki convo:

Don't you dare, don't you dare, don't you dare, don't you dare, don't you dare, don't you dare, don't you dare, don't you dare, don't you dare.

You Deserve To Live in Moncton For What You Have Done

Hello Joe

kindlingking: This review was intentionally delayed so Miyazaki couldn't dodge criticism it presents on reaction.

Shamoofun: Joseph is basically George rr Martin when it comes to finishing that Witcher video… but this will suffice

iseeyou1312: One day The Witcher 3 review will be uploaded, but it is not this day.

neoman289151: This aint the GeraltXDandelion fanfic review

aidancohen6244: We got Joseph Anderson dual yearly uploads before Silksong

UncleSalad: the last chapter is extremely well said. it was really hard to watch valid criticisms of the dlc get publicly executed.

FearTheCaboose1337: The nonlinear joke had me literally say "that bastard" at the screen, but it's not in a bad way. Good to know you ain't dead.

andomitor8: Man. That last chapter could apply to so many games at the moment. Helldivers 2's devs and community seem to be going through exactly what you've described almost exactly as you've desceibed.

agitated.tachyon: It’s obvious jumping attacks need telegraphing, because they included telegraphing the first time round in Sekiro, and people incorporated jumps into their combat, while many still rely exclusively on rolling in Elden Ring.

With no clear indicator in Elden Ring, your options are either trial and error, meaning you’ll take damage and die multiple times just to be absolutely sure an attack isn’t jumpable, or go watch a video rote teaching you which attacks are jumpable.

The saddest part about the lack of clear telegraphing for jumpable attacks is that the game already has the perfect aesthetic motif to seamlessly communicate this information in an immersive way.

Grace.

Grace guides us on our journey, Grace encourages Godfrey to fight us, Grace is something that basically only our Tarnished can see at this point.

Grace could have played a far more active role in the game, swimming through the air alongside us, or even quickly flickering into existence to warn us as much as guide us. Grace could have swirled towards an enemy’s critical hit spot when we down them, and it could have manifested as a clear prompt that we should jump the next attack.

Instead, we are told TEXTUALLY that Grace is THE thing that will be there difference between our Tarnished succeeding rather than failing like so many others before, and yet MECHANICALLY, it is basically non-existent save for making my map look ugly as hell by the time I finish the game, long after the fights it was pointing me to have been won.

JustinY.: Great Vegetables

clairedex: this time for sure

xyves6327: The last Witcher 3 critique was the best video on this channel!

Meese12: "You thought you were going to get a real final DLC boss, but it was me, Godefroy the Grafted!"

pHDinSnowcones: This is far and away the best critique you've ever produced.

I think you're at your worst when you start dissecting the asinine minutia of a game and miss the forest for the trees. But for the most part this review got to the core of FromSoft, Elden Ring, and the fan bases strengths and glaring issues. IMO the most important and challening job of a critic is turning often hard to grasp sentiments into well-thought out ideas and critiques. I think you killed it here. Good shit dude.

GameGod77: "It's not reading your inputs, the bosses just respond really fast to the first few frames of your character's animations."

So... It is reading your inputs then. That sounds like the textbook definition of how a game's AI would react to inputs faster than a human can.

Cybershroom: The biggest crime of this DLC was to blueball me from getting another ending when going back to the base game.

NightDocs: Excellent and necessary final section. Enjoy how you want and ignore the toxic cope or hate on Twitter and Reddit

unnoticed9988: You took to long and I ended up making my own opinion on the DLC

Soudrah: They speaked like pokemon called "get good" that evolve into "skill issue" is my new favorite line to steal

pigeonade.: this is by far joseph's funniest video

wboyajian: Its funny because as someone who absolutely loves the base game bosses, Consort Radahn lacks basically everything that makes them fun to me. He has almost no combo variation or mixups, very few positioning based attacks, and such extreme tracking that rolling is basically the only way to avoid damage. All the difficulty just comes from extremely obtuse and punishing attacks. Its like a pure memorization test of the exact way to dodge every move and then execute that for 5 minutes with no flexibility. The skill floor was super high but the skill ceiling was just barely above that so the boss already felt tedious and repetitive on a second playthrough.

Cinnacal: Those Skyrim mods are getting crazy now. I almost thought Joe’s footage of Nintendo games were ACTUALLY from Nintendo games. That’d be weird.

saltyshrimppasta: “Sir Joseph Anderson just released another Elden Ring video.”

“There’ll be no Witcher 3 then, I’ll tell the children.”

jake-vu7cj: saying this dlc skipped leg day is such a perfect way to put it lol. so much feels amazing and it’s def my fav dlc but there’s a lot that made me kinda sick of it after a while

DeusVault: Torrent was not intended for 2 years, and now it is. Your feeble mind does not comprehend the mind of Miyazaki. Get gud lol.

rides away on torrent, gets knocked off from a pebble

medi6892: The post credit scene is so fucking funny especially watching the premiere it got me for a second

noahlarson3670: Oh man okay you outdid yourself with this one, this is quite possibly my favourite video out of you. Phenomenal. It might be the "new video high" so I do have to give it a few more listens but everything was super well said (as always) and that last bit about the state of criticism around these games was my absolute favourite, especially as a fellow creative.

rikkhanny867: Phase 2 Rhadan made me go from "yeah this bossfight is fun" to "fuck this I'm bringing Mimic Tear, Lord's Divine Protection, and buckshot to kill this asshole."

dotanuki3371: I'd like to add in a point to the some bosses being too frustrating to learn argument: I think the healing flasks stop scaling too soon. It feels like they stop scaling for around 40 vigor, while 60 seems right for endgame. Meanwhile damage just keeps scaling. The result of this is that you know have to heal twice for every fuckup, and effectively your error quota is cut in half compared to midgame. It honestly feels like they just adopted the scaling cap from DS3 where damage is more modest, and never adapted it properly to ER.

DamionLionheart: I just gotta say, I'm glad I'm not the only one who threw a stone on the roof in the catacombs and promptly died when it lied to me. What the actual fuck

AJD...: Can't wait for the comments from people who don't get his sarcasm in the intro

miragebarrage9748: Never ask a man his wage.

Never ask a woman her age.

Never ask an Elden Ring player what the developer intended way to dodge waterfowl dance is.

user-tl6sx4bj6c: "It has peaked my curiosity"

Shows Jagged Peak

literallyjustgrass: Holy shit, that ending rant just vented my 10 year built up frustration from attempting to discuss these games on the internet, thanks

CadetSF: Excited to hear your new self-deprecating comment about witcher 3 video timeline, but in all honestly excited to watch this video.

Lucax97: The ending where you draw comparisons to Bethesda is so pertinent.

When the game came out, people ignored or faintly praised the obtuse quests, only for the complete quest lines for multiple characters to be patched in a week later.

There was little discussion about this and I realised then that these games are currently impenetrable to talk about.

Fanboys have constructed something which is inscrutable, there's always an excuse, even if the game doesn't need them.

pokemontrainerred5913: Elden Ring again Dad? I wanna eat some Witcher !

Boball345: Video Title: Phase 2

Joseph Anderson profile picture: Dragon

Introduction music: Phase 2 of Bayle

I smile

ingloriuspumpkinpie9367: Hi Joseph, I was starting to worry about whether you are OK. I am sure the video will be great.

soulslasher7890: Hello Anderson-san. This is John From Software. Unfortunately, you made the grave error of referring to our glorious leader as Miyazaki-SAN instead of his rightful title of Miyazaki-sama. Consider our agreement voided. Your children will be placed in our unpaid QA team, forced to play Elden Ring Colosseum PVP for the remainder of their life in an effort to restore game balance. Good day.

JaeTsunFFXIV: This might be the first time I've ever seen a YouTube account have a second health bar appear

leoforzeth: Wow, so he just admits it!

geisenbergw.5799: bro hugged a girl and let her blessing for the whole dlc runs

HaloFilms8: Your point about Bethesda being on top of the world post-Skyrim and insulated from all criticism is crucial. It can happen to any studio, including From, and zealous fanboys contribute to it by shutting down nuanced discussion. Good video.

tristan1009: I love how you subtly worked in the Demon Souls reference.

freshlymemed5680: The last section was cathartic. I was always hung up on your style of criticism but watching your streams was enjoyable. 0/10 where tf is the Witcher 3 video.

LarsDonner: Calling it now: He's using the Premiere feature so we don't see that there are still 12h left because he's attached the completed Witcher 3 video at the end!

Turbo-DF: "i will now complain about elden ring for 70 minutes"

me; with an entire pizza "hell yea"

Exasperated_Nomad: I just know the thought of someone unfamiliar with Joe absolutely SEETHING from hearing the first several minutes of this video made Joe giggle uncontrollably at his desk for several minutes uninterrupted, unable to breathe as he moves an entire draft of the W3 video to the recycle bin once again.

Poppenheimer69: Best thing about Elden Ring is its official comedy manga

emperman: True video title:

Shadow of the witcher tree critique

jellyfishrot: Miyazaki won't let Joe see his kids again till he admits that the real exploration rewards are the 125 documented instances of bare feet throughout the lands between

Fifko88: Every day Joseph Anderson is not uploading Witcher 3 video is just suffering and meaningles...

thaearthquake: SOTE missing legday is a brilliant analogy. As great as it is, that greatness makes its flaws all the more glaring.

steeljester1188: JOE IS BACK!! i can finally stop watching drive until he returns!!!

sammyboi8938: Holy shit...yeah, you're right. I'm afraid FromSoft would become Bathesda one day. We need to keep those trolls and "git gud" folks down and let people offer proper criticisms. FromSoft is a good dev team but they can be BETTER!! So we don't need FromSoft to keep the level they are right now and let them improve!
