I can't believe NL isn't allowed to say "Zanzibar" within the first 8 seconds of the video anymore

The TH-cam change is encouraging people to have 15sec intros again...

Please stop calling Dave The Diver (DTD) an indie game. I don't know who started this, but pixel graphics alone don't make a game an indie game. Mintrocket, the studio that created DTD has 30 team members, which makes them a AA studio. On top of that, they are a division of Nexon. Nexons is an $18 billion USD company! On top of that, the CEO of Mintrocket himself stated that they are not an indie studio. It’s unfair to all the other indie studios to call DTD an indie game. And don't get me wrong, I like DTD, nothing against the game or studio.

It’s not just the first 15 seconds, if TH-cam decides the number of times you swore crossed an arbitrary number they haven’t told anyone you get demonetized

classic NL, calling a game GOTY within the first week of the year

This game's graphics are SO clean, that it made me realize how dusty my monitor was.

[@niLnevyH]

Idk why but the discrepancy from the sheer size and power of the harpoon and watching nl harpoon basically goldfish in the tutorial made me chuckle

NL is hella bald on my 36 inch monitor. Never really noticed as I'm always pogging on my phone.

[@uhtuhgdhgud7715]

Immediate hot takes are good indicators for banger NL videos

[@noodle8259]

I love the design of the main dude, he looks like a friendly neighborhood dood :)

Wednesday NL - All my friends are playing Dave the Diver. I'm the guy that gives you a bit of variety.

[@guywhocomments1393]

When he answered the will you check it (Tarkov) out with such a quick "Yep!" I laughed my ass off.

I completely agree with NL's take on the 100 hour game.

This game seems like a nice chill vibe, looking forward to this series!

[@rocknu55]

I wonder how many people caught that quick "House of Leaves" reference.

[@Blackobluna]

Visit Michigan's Upper Peninsula, very scenic and there's like 2 hours of driving involved to go anywhere. It's more techinically the Midwest than it is actually the Midwest, but still counts

"A little wasnobby".... 😂 Starting the year out strong!
