Scumbag Linus

Go to solution Solved by LinusTech,

I could have done one video, but I wanted them to be more searchable in the long run.

 

6 months from now, there won't be anyone who remembers these cards all launched together and they'll just be looking for information on the individual cards, so I want them to be able to find it more easily.

If you only want to know about one card, why should you have to find in it a video of 3?

This. It's easier to search for one product and find a video on that one product. Imagine if TTL lumped all his reviews into one video.

Makes sense. I hope you know this turned into a troll post :P

Please dont compare Austin Evans to Linus Sebastian, they are leagues apart. Maybe one day Austin will be at that level but as for now, Linus is easily the best tech host and i prefer individual gpu videos anyway.

My OCD likes him, always so clean and well presented. I like Linus's videos more however, cuz he's a nice guy and he uploads new content almost everyday. And how are they "leagues apart"? Apparently he's notable, that's why he was on the WAN Show (which I watch every Saturday (and Sunday if I missed anything)) Remember was Elic said? They're not competing with each other, so why do you think that? Because Linus has more views? Subscribers? No. they are equals. I'm just saying I like Austin's presentation more than Linus's

This. It's easier to search for one product and find a video on that one product. Imagine if TTL lumped all his reviews into one video.

Austin lumped all his cards into one video and his whole video is shorter than one of linus's card reviews. He moved quickly but hit all the points. Your argument is invalid.

This thread is bad and OP should feel bad.

Book 'em Deno.

You think Linus can't take criticism? He obviously can. He's replied to this topic in a civilized manner.

Leave Linus alone, there is no real news with the new series of cards, Mantle and the 290x are the only real exciting things in the current launch besides prices, otherwise its all last gen with a new face.

I know there isn't much news, but I'm "complaining" about the redundancy of the news.

OP should just stop coming here...

Comment-er should stop commenting here. Obviously doesn't get the point of this thread.

Linus said it best, 6 months from now people want to watch a video on a specific card and each video tells the advantages of going with that certain card including USB butt plugs

I hope you keep in mind that he said the same thing about the technology used because not everyone will watch all 3 videos about the new AMD cards most likely will only watch one since they will be looking for that given one and you can't really say anything else about the same thing.

If you're a crazy fanboy like me you would watch ALL HIS VIDEOS. Plus, I wanted to see how good/bad the lower end cards were. (I'm helping some friends with a few builds)

They would find more information about USB Buttplugs on the WAN Show or in the Stinkyfoot video.

This is how I found LTT on youtube and glad I did otherwise I wouldn't have brought the Silverstone SG09 case.

Linus really sold it to me and I had never heard of Silverstone.

So if you asked me he's doing the community a favor and he's doing it right.

I was only interested in the f*cking 280X so why should I necessarily watch it in 1 video full of low end stuff? It is better this way for us and him aswell, if you're jealous that he gets more views then you should really put yourself together and start thinking, why are you butthurt because of someone's success?

owwww I made a account JUST to post this stuff. I wonder where all 150 posts came from O.o. Low end? Both Linus and Austin covered the same exact cards... Do I give 2 shi*s he gets more views than me? No, I youtube for FUN.

I personally like a separate vid for each, dunno what the big deal is.

I don't know that the big deal is either. Make one topic they said. No one will think you hate Linus for some odd reason they said...

Maybe it's up to personal preference, but I'd rather watch a long video on one product than a short video on multiple products? If you don't like it, you don't have to watch it. No one's forcing you to watch every video for monetary gain. The two youtube channels you are comparing exist for that very reason.

 

Don't begin a discussion with the idea that everyone's opinions are already invalid.

I did not begin the "discussion with the idea everyone's opinions are invalid" I've marked Linus's comment as solution... I would rather see a long video with ALL the information on ALL the cards. I forced my self to watch them. I am a mindless fanboy.

I see a lot of "I would like this" "I would like that", that's right nobody cares what you would like, Linus chooses what's best for everyone.

I think you're just angry. If you care so much about a YouTube video you should really get out more.

No, if you have read any of the other posts you would understand by now that I don't take this seriously.

Repeating the important stuff in each video is better than linking someone to another video (which explains the stuff) they won't be interested in.

You're the one who made this pointless thread, so don't call me troll.

I understand you maybe didn't like it or understand it but there was no need to be that insulting towards him, no need to use the word scumbag even though it's a meme, no need to start talking about money. It's his channel, it's his job and he'll do it how it suits him and his audience.

Who's calling you a troll. I put /troll at the end so you would understand that it was a troll response. Obviously you are stoopider than I though...

And please tell me who linked who/what? When did I ever say anything about links?
