    Still doing the same thing, except recently, he's actually been softer. Not on shitty devs or publishers, mind you, but lately, he's seemed less misanthropic and things like that. For example, his early Super Smash Bros. Brawl review was making fun of Nintendo fans, but his more recent Super Smash Bros. Ultimate review was more of a critique of the concept of Smash Bros, his main criticism being that while it's probably amusing to the big fans, and he'd probably be amused by a game with characters he likes fighting each other, it's still just a superficial thing, and doesn't really display what makes the source material good and interesting. Notably, that's a critique that applies not just to Smash Bros, but on things like Ready Player One and Space Jam 2. It's the kind of thing you'd see in a video essay, except compressed to 5 minutes.

    Although I still think he peaked with the fake Duke Nukem Forever review.
