Cyclical Gamer Discourse (The Jimquisition)


Close Ad ×


Repetition is what makes Gamer Discourse go round, and I should know – this very show has been accused of repetition since inception. It’s not like the accusation is untrue.

However, is Gamer Discourse ever original? Aren’t we just rehashing about five arguments over and over? I know one thing – the arguments have more cycles than Returnal.

18 Comments:

  1. Is this repetitive? Yes
    Is it necessary? YES
    will I be here next week? Yes

  2. Imagine getting upset that people like Stephanie keep bringing up the issues in the game industry, and not being angry at the fact that these issues keep perpetually happening in the first place….

  3. Bug Catcher Harold

    I feel like a good sequel to this episode would be a recap of all the times James Stephanie “Cassandra of Video Games” Sterling was right but not believed.

  4. “It’s a videogame review not the rosetta stone…” *Action Button Reviews has entered the chat*

  5. If someone can’t except criticism of something they like that says a whole lot about that person

  6. “When I was talking about the eternal recurrence, I was talking about video game discourse.”
    – Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche, inventor of the moustache

  7. I’m so sick of this conversation I don’t even know what my stance is anymore.

  8. imagine being mad at the person calling out bad behavior for 10 solid years instead of the people actually behaving badly

  9. As someone who was very invested in video game review scores back when I was 13, I always forget that there are adult people who still care very deeply about them

  10. This is the actual dark souls of games journalism. A repetive cycle of suffering, light and dark, and so many undead.

  11. at this point, Jim can now add “the Cassandra of videogame discourse” to their extensive list of titles.

  12. As a pro musician – the intro has me laughing like a demented drummer

  13. If losing subscribers means calling out those who need calling out and giving fewer f**ks while doing so, I’m all for it.

  14. Since the transition they seem both angrier and happier at the same time.

  15. “for them, there actually are only two genders: male, and political”

    that actually killed me, thank you

  16. Can’t spell “sleaze” without EA.

  17. Eventually the Jimquisition is just going to be Rustin Cole’s speech from True Detective about time being a flat circle, but they are just gonna use bogglins for the diorama

  18. I no longer remember what Steph looks like without the hair. Transition goals tbh.
