Why should we care ? Are you a sheep that also leave games due to some internet hero quiting the game ?
Fact of life: there isn't enough time to experience/know everything by yourself, so you need to rely on other people's opinions/knowledge. People who are "on the fence" will probably not be purchasing the game if many reviews are like this one.
Opinion Leaders
1. General: Influential members of a community, group, or society to whom others turn for advice, opinions, and views.
2. Marketing: Minority group (called early adopters) that passes information on new products (received from the media) to less adventuresome or not as well informed segments of the population.
I can appreciate other peoples opinions/knowledge ... but certainly not when they are presented just to get more clicks/views on youtube.

Who is Francis? A character developed by Boogie2988 who is a lot more popular and interesting then yourself.
Wait a minute. He's a made up caricature? That changes everything. Kinda.
So is he being ironic and trying to show how stupid these camwhore "reviewers" act by playing a disabled person? I could get behind that.

ESO is still in the process of builing the game, if you do not have patience then o/ have fun bb. There are many things that might be anoying or facepalm atm, but i play mmo's for the long run not for 1 month to hop to the next "failure" as no mmo is good enough these days.
Thanks for not disappointing.
Even before i clicked the link i knew someone would have already posted 'why should we care'.
Only because OP is sharing a video with us doesn't mean that he has to be a sheep. Calm down, no need to get so emotional.

Yeah I did...
But in my defense I've only seen Angry Joe and Total Biscut so I wasn't sure. The Biscut isn't bad honestly. But Joe...

I trust Youtube reviewers more than professional sites, 9 times out of 10 pro sites get it wrong and their reviews do not reflect what the users are thinking. At least with Youtube reviews you actually get what is really going on with a game, they don't have to worry about publishers taking away their early access to games because they gave it a poor review.
Why should we care ? Are you a sheep that also leave games due to some internet hero quiting the game ?
Why does anyone listen to anyone...? Why did Siskel and Ebert become American household names...? My guess, because people seek validation in their opinion.
Now as for Shows like Angry Joe, ZP and others like it... Most watch them for the entertainment value. They are funny CHARACTERS... Nobody would be silly enough to think that Joe Vargas (Angry joe) actually goes around and rage at the world all the time. By the same token nobody actually expects the people who demo products on the shopping channel to give a fair and honest opinion... But they are still damm fun to watch from time to time.
As for ESO... It is the exact hot mess that critics said it would be and the belle of the ball that fans was predicting as each camp tend to overlook the good/bad that don´t fit in the argument they have. The sad thing is that this in turn only result in a averahe game.. and that is perhaps the greatest sin of all. =P

Also i bet that these people who take such an offense to critics of video games have atleast once in their life listened to a critic say before watching a movie or buying a book.
No, wait, what? Well I was expecting some sort of punch line, but nothing.
Actually, Angry Joe I know, Yatze is a legend, but Frances? Who the heck is that and what is wrong with you folks, don't you have anything else better to do with your time?
Like work, play games, read forums, or hit yourselves in the head with a hammer?

I've known Francis since the SWtOR early-access shit fit (you should look up that video btw) and while the character is over the top the message is usually very pertinent especially if you watch the last minute or so of this latest video and you will get why the video even exists.
We are now in full swing of it. It seems we're moving at a rate of a stage every 2-3 weeks.
Looks like it. What were the other stages again?
Seriously people, it's just an act. I forgot about Francis myself, havign been focusing more on AJ and ZP, but he's still abit funny. It's hilarious watching everyone flip out over a simple comical bit. Sure, he obviously has issues wiht the game, but it's mostly to gain views.
"Why should we care?". You shouldn't. If you're enjoying the game, that's all that matters. But apparently, since this is new most used comment by the fans, you guys do care, after all.
Originally posted by Swids2010 He always makes me laugh too. But he makes a very good point towards the end he's not mad they made a shitty MMO he's mad they made the worst elder scrolls game so far.
I like Francis, I like that he always gets a really good observation in there with all his (pretend) ranting and raving.
There is no doubt, that the gem in this particular video is the sad ending where he highlights the actual sin of Elder Scrolls: Online in his view, namely that it doesn't live up to the proud name of "Elder Scrolls" that Morrowind, Oblivion, Daggerfall, and to some extent Skyrim established.
I think many people forgot how to have fun in mmo's and expect perfection in games. Sorry but mmo's have never been perfect and never will be.
ESO still has a long road ahead of them and if you dont like it /quit There are tons of people playing this game that think otherwise alough it seems to be not the case when you read these hate infested forums and so called objective bloggers and youtube ranters.
I coulnt care less about some guy with a cam ranting about something. Altough Angry Joe did make some solid points in his revieuw and i agree with many of them. But does that make ESO a bad mmo ? for you maybe for me its still worth the sub as i am having tons of fun with my guild.
Some blokes are hilarious as if the whole world if going to end just for a game. Its our hobby and there are tons of mmo's out there but it seems they are all shit as you all tried ESO and bought it and still dint find a mmo that you like.
I'm going to go ahead and guess this is another sensationalist reviewer I've never heard of with an angry teen following. What is it with people and linking random stuff of some dude no one has ever heard of quitting.
As far as I'm concerned, games are better off without these people and their drivel.

lol, I cant believe there are still people white knighting this game, or worse, the developers. Not that I really give a shit about youtubers (who have zero qualifications in journalism) but this is just another in a long list of failures for the game. They have royally screwed up in almost every aspect from game design to customer service. It should NOT be defended.

It's fine if that is your opinion, however there are many people who love the game, probably more than hate it if these crowded zones are any judge of it!
I'll continue playing as will others, the whiners will leave, and in a month's time people will be hating on the next fad, WildStar.

Have you noticed that it's always the "latest" of the single player Elder Scrolls games that people seem to consistently consider to be the "bad one," while revering all previous entries?
Like I remember before Skyrim came out, Oblivion was the "bad" ES game. It was generic, it didn't have the alien feel of Morrowwind etc. etc.
Now that Skyrim is out, Oblivion has been enshrined in the hall of legends, and Skyrim is the "bad" ES game.

Always fun to watch.
One thing that puzzles me though is he never seems to lose weight despite being so active in his 'reviews'...:)
