Today's Penny Arcade is a near perfect commentary on the Unity debacle.

Whole comic linked above, but here's the one-panel that is perfect.

So from the game developer side, hbomber's video nails exactly why those comics exist. He gets into why the culture is draw to them and how it's a reflection of them. I was shown this from another dev and I've shown it to others. Everyone has come to the same opinion. Yeah, hbomber is absolutely right about gaming culture and gamers. It's really reflective in why the term hardcore gamer exists and why you jump so hard to defend the culture your are apart of.

Also hbomber isn't punching down, he's creating an informative video to help the culture around gaming grow. His channel is literally him doing that to several cultures. Including YouTubers.

You should give him a chance. Entirely watch the video and a few others. I'd give recommendations for some but I'm on Mobile in my way to bed. If you really want some though I can gladly give you some in the morning. Try to see them more as video essays rather than purely entertainment because that really doesn't give it a fair shake.
