In regards to TLOU 2, you gotta remember that Abby not only murdered Joel, but explicitly wanted to torture him, and she only stopped because Ellie walked in. And this is after Joel risked his life to save her from zombies. It’s the worst first impression they could’ve crafted, short of senselessly killing Ellie and Tommy too.
And to get meta, most people who didn’t see the leaks bought the game to get more Joel and Ellie action, and Abby walks in and removes that possibility forever. For most people, Joel’s needlessly painful death can’t be forgiven.
Think they'd've learned after the poor reception TWD got for Negan beating Glenn to death
Tbh it's a pretty compelling story arc. their biggest flop was making you play as abby for half the game and making the entire cast of that chapter of the story super unlikable.
@@wulfjager7553 The difference between tlou2 and twd, is that glenn died in the comics, they could either keep him alive and lose comic fans, or kill him and lose tv fans, it was kinda a lose lose situation either way for that show, whereas the last of us is way more open to how they write the story
@@willmelucci2989 i think the major issue i and many other had was they teased that they wouldn't kill him and then decided to kill him off anyway
Such shitty writing. It's the way how the trailers have DELETED scenes of Joel and Ellie talking, and Joel asking Ellie if they're both ready basically to fuck some people up. Then when the game came out Joel was gone within the first 2 hours
The staring competition between Kaya and Jackson continues.
Jackson is a bozo

Wow Hilarious comment nice one🤪😃👍🏾
been a few podcasts since they last had their webcam on
Idk man I only came here to watch temple run
After hearing Jackson's take on TLOU2, I suddenly understand why every argument on this show is 3v1 lol
the temple run segment was easily the best this podcast has ever been
Timestamp?
I was completely fixated on it the whole time it was on screen
The joke is, "what do you call a doctor who finishes last in his class"
oh god what
@@smellthel "doctor"
"Captain"

Flight talk is one of this podcast signatures.
Charlie phobia
im getting so fcking tired of these dumbass bots. wtf is youtube even doing ?.
@@newt2120 They are all stuck in Charlie channel
I'm 100% with Charlie on the last of us 2 take..the flashback should have been first.
Perfect example. Assassin Creed 3. I found haytham to be sympathetic and a logical man and you play as him for a while just to hear the twist, "may the father of understanding guide us"
I would rather play as Haytham for the whole duration of AC III. I hated playing as Connor, he was such a boring character.
@@asiangamer5040 i agreee connor came off too stoic and emotionless even after his own fathers death , haytham was atleast charming and charismatic and felt he had a more nuanced character and objective. Connors objective is generic good guy killing the templars.
The big issue I had with AC 3 is it comes right after ezio's story and ezio would often times go out of his way to debate with his opponents and even started to understand their viewpoints in AC revelations then comes Connor who basically for the entire game was like "No, I'm right you're wrong, get fucked." Which really isn't good. If Connor actively debated Haytham it would've worked better, because often times Haytham didn't kill Connor and tried to engage him in a battle of wits that Connor always declined.
Another Shoutout to Andrew for his A+ levels of Attendance! Give this man a Gold star and a pat on the back
@Lucas Garcia Take your bot ass elsewhere
@lucasgarcia1741 I am genuinely curious. What do you get from doing this?
Ironically, the man who's always right about conspiracies and expertise is actually Wendigoon.
Let's all agree that the best part when instead of showing their faces they showed temple run
Alright fellas, it's time for our weekly JACKOFF session
Ayo
Im very honored to be attending this session
A pleasure to participate
wht
@Lucas Garcia Poor bot can't even JACKOFF
1:25:22 this is where jackson's argument begin to crumble
He never had an argument he just always has to have the wrong take. I'm sure soon we'll hear him agree with Kanye that Hitler isn't a bad guy.
How so?
@@thebeardedmugiwara Ahaha, I noticed that too. Sometimes he really likes to be a contrarian.
the game is about forgiveness! you’re suppose to hate her at the beginning so it can make it hard to forgive her. I never hear anyone say that considering this and first game have strong thematic elements. It’s suppose to emulate you not wanting to forgive someone for doing something wrong to you. and the fact that most people hate this game proves that people don’t have the capability to forgive someone which is an EXTREMELY important yet highly overlooked value to have as humans.
Everybody against Jackson's stance are basically spitting on the idea of video games as art. You all wanted purely likeable but flawed characters instead of the ACTUAL NEW IDEA of establishing a VILLAIN and then going "Okay that was fucked up, but by the end of this, you'll experience the reasoning firsthand."
You are all pissed off because the devs decided not to release a standard narrative. They wrongly tried to leverage the medium in an interesting way by forcing you to assume the role of somebody that you're supposed to hate. Everybody wanted some serialized Joel and Ellie adventures and instead got a product that used that love for the characters in a calculated way to actively upset the player, but apparently intentional upset = bad game, and we need to "fix" the art by removing core ideas instead of just disliking it.
Tl;Dr, gamers are petulant children who don't want new things, they want episodic adventures with characters who's views and ideals align with their own. Challenge this, and face the gamer wrath.
Edit - just realized this is 2 episodes in a row of these guys just not understanding art.
19:55 I love how charlie just throw the most obscure reference out of nowhere lol loved that game
You guys rly got the mix right on this one. Impressed all around & kudos to all of u
Andrew's Story at 34:30 will restore your faith in humanity
Jackson Try Not to Have a Hot Take the Entire Group Jumps on in Every Episode Challenge: Very Hard
Try Not To Talk Like This Challenge: Impossible
Try Not To Talk Like This Challenge: Impossible
I'm impressed to see how he always has the worst opinion.
@@_Seileach Every group needs a devil's advocate and he isn't always wrong nor are they always right by a long shot. Otherwise every episode would be 4 fools agreeing on insular takes.
@@_Seileach sometimes it ain't even an opinion he's just pointing out a fact and they don't believe him lmao
The Intro is always an Absolute Banger!
Absolutely
That bit at 8:37 had me rolling lol. Good job committing to the bit, Danny
The beginning is so great even I'm clapping
honestly Im surprised that the podcasts get less views than the regular uploads they are soooooooo good.
We don’t like his friends or his goofy girlfriend. They are all annoying
Kaya is unbearable that's why lol. And Andrew is "always right". Charlie and Jackson carry
It's not because of kaya as much as people want it to be but because most of cr1tikals audience are young and like his usual style of videos and listening to over an hour of 4 people talking isn't going to be appealing to the majority of viewers.
@@grimdeth2197 Am I the only one who doesn't understand why Kaya is so hated? Tbh I find Andrew more annoying exactly because he sometimes talks confidently about stuff he doesn't seem to know a lot about, but neither him or Kaya shove their opinions down the others' throats so I don't find him overly annoying either. Sure Kaya sometimes has absolutist takes which often lack nuance, but at least to me it seems like he realizes when he's gone a bit too far and knows when to stop.
i always listen thru spotify
Imagine for The Last of Us 2, what if John Wick's dog killer suddenly got flashbacks of him being a good guy that actually likes dogs, then John Wick doesn't pull the trigger.
Hi CC😅BBB 😅
This is the first podcast i’ve heard in a while, my first “The Official Podcast” as well. Wasn’t disappointed
I always say that if you haven't seen Airplane, you have to watch it at least twice.
This is the most attention I've ever payed attention to the podcast so much stimulation
This is the most I’ve ever looked at the podcast without looking away
The Last of Us 2 is a game where you spend 11 hours playing as an alternate universe version of the soldier who shot Sarah at the start of 1.
Sarah was an innocent person in a world that was still "normal" compared to 30 years later. Sarah was also a child that was shot due to a chance of spreading a world ending virus. Joel was a piece of shit that killed innocents and ended possibly the only chance at saving what was left yet we still liked Joel
@@softis2000 What exactly makes you think the Fireflies were anywhere close to making a cure? Because the first game has heaps of evidence that they're pulling all of that bluster about a cure out of thin air. Even if Joel had unambiguously denied a real cure, that doesn't inherently spell the doom of mankind as Tommy's settlement shows humanity is perfectly capable of thriving. We like Joel because we can completely understand why he does what he does, and that even his worst actions were never done out of malice. The same cannot be said for someone who goes "imma stab your pregnant friend for revenge lol"
Been watching this podcast since early 2021, I enjoy it so much and it brings me entertainment with each episode, good stuff!
If you stare long enough at Kaya you can see him blink
Love the podcasts
Jackson is back inside the oven and Kaya is inside the mirror dimension.
Oven lmfao, that picture is so cursed.
Thanks for this, it was to the second the EXACT length of our car ride today
🤢🤮
Glad to see that no one cares about the verified sign anymore
@@gamermcgamer lmfao
@@Bruhman_YUSS Lmao what?
Essentially; TLoU2 was slaughtered by pacing issues. It could’ve been good if it established both Ellie and Abby BEFORE Joel’s death. Because afterward, she’s simply someone to want to kill. Creative nuance doesn’t really matter, because the character itself is set up, by the story itself, as someone to want to kill. There’s no reason to want to empathize with the character, because they are the “obstacle”.
Had Abby been given some time to be seen before the murder, it would’ve been a bit more grounding. It’s impossible to claim nuance if the character is purely a murderer first, human second.
Amazing content as always
Bro you watched 3 mins of the video 💀
I am studying electronic engineering in a university and some of our teachers have just blatantly admitted that they have no way of preventing us from using things like chatGPT to generate answer or copilot for code. At least in most cases we are allowed to do since it is tool like any other and will be used more and more in the future, also it is nowhere near fast enough to actually use in tests and such.
Thank you boys
Andrews han solo analogy at the end is perfect
LoU2 missed the ball so hard. They really should've dug deeper into the ramifications of Joel's decision at the end of the first game and made that the driving force instead of Abbie's personal revenge. And not kill Joel at the beginning. Plus not beat us over the head with revenge bad. Maybe there was just too much expectation for the game
Seeing Jackson having obviously worse takes every episode makes me realize all the people arguing on the controversial side may just be the same people every time
There's something to that.
Agreed. I only watch stuff that has the exact same opinion as the general population that's why I love watching Charlie's regular videos.
Jackson does it for the sake of doing it
Devil's advocate people do that for fun
54:26 What Andrew is explaining here is exactly Aristotle's concept regarding characters. If a good guy dies, it's not good cuz it'll make people sad, if a bad guy lives that too, will make people sad. Likewise if a bad guy dies, that'll make the audience feel totally justified and not feel any sympathy. But, if, like Walter White, a relatively good dude who has done that only bad act, then it makes people feel sympathy as well as feel like it was justified.
Abby was such an under developed character starting out, then the issue was magnified by her actions early in the game. You don't have to agree with anything a character/villain does, you just need to understand it and find it reasonable enough. Abby had none of that.
Joel massacred her father and the entire research team the father was on. Did you forgot about that?
@@aDeprivedSeal It makes sense to her but not the viewer as she doesn't hold much emotional weight on the audience. She's not too far off from a writer commanding a giant boulder to kill a likeable protagonist out of the blue just to cause an emotional reaction to feign being deep and thought-provoking. As I said she's underdeveloped.
@@aDeprivedSeal They showed literally nothing of that before she killed Joel. Did you forget* about that?
@@messedupperfect9367 ... the first game forehead, did you forget?
@@aDeprivedSeal You had zero way of knowing that was his daughter. As I said, they showed literally nothing of that before she killed Joel. Try again.
Gotta love the podcasts
You guys are all a lot funnier than other podcasts I've listened to. Kaya made me laugh a bunch. A lot more than Charlie who's so much quieter.
Who is Charlie? To the blind, he is the light. To the hungry, he is the bread. To the sick, he is the cure. To the lonely, he is the company. To the sad, he is the joy. To the prisoner, he is the freedom. To the poor, he is the treasure. For me, he is everything.

I never seen kaya so happy
I literally stopped at 31:20 and went to watch the entirety of Menu (2022). It really is a great movie
This podcast gives me life
Charlie sat so still at one point i thought he was in the staring contest with Kaya and Jackson
I was entranced by the temple run gameplay and completely forgot I was watching a podcast
bet im ready for this one
I'm watching Subway Surfers gameplay right now as to manage keeping interest in this podcast
that gif segment drove my adhd nuts ngl lmao, I had to replay it five times and I still don't know what they said
This podcast is like modern day Seinfeld, I fucking love it!! Also, Andrew has such a natural knack for this. Since day one it was obvious with his ad reads (the only ads I actually sit through)
very good point!!!
52:27 that would be a really cool idea for a found footage film that takes place after an airplane crash
jackson asking why you should like a character you play as for a dozen hours is assassins creed completion all over again, next podcast is going to be him vehemently defending CBT just because charlie and andrew don't like it and kaya taking a middleground with his hot wax
I work IT and I can fully confirm that remark on Gen Z and onward being relatively tech illiterate. I am not so great on everything with programming or managing hardware, far from it, but colleagues even about five years younger than me are completely clueless about a lot of stuff. Most of them don't even know how to scrape a picture off of social media platforms. And mind you, these are people that I consider extremely talented in their own fields.
that temple run gameplay was nuts
The Closer Look TH-cam channel has a really great alternative to the last of us 2 and I feel like it goes well with what the guys were talking about
22:54 “I’m wrong. FUCK.” This part made my day hahaha
The temple run game play worked on me, I tabbed back in when they said put it on and instead of listened watched the whole thing because not only was their one thing for me to get a option to look at but 3 others
Thanks for jackson for reigning kaya in
Its so cursed that andrews camera isnt synced with the audio
I was ready to see some no scopes being hit with that cinematic intro
When was the last time Jackson actually had a working webcam
jackson just always digs himself a hole and then keeps digginh
Hold on.... If an Australian digs a hole.... they're climbing up, right?
Charlie and Andrew had such a close minded take though. Their idea of the story progression is just a simple plot twist as opposed to something new.
@@simonsniffcock2400 yeah and Andrew of all people talking about "objectively bad storytelling" like hes an authority on the matter is cringe
@@TheFlawedPlan happens so often too
Yep, Andrews so insufferable. Always acts like the pinnacle of knowledge on everything. Proper cringe
08:37 🤣 they actually went there
Your the GOAT of YT!!
Just FYI when in the air the captain is the ultimate authority. Can make passengers kill each other if he wants, will face repercussions afterwards but legally is in control when in flight.
when they clapped at the start an ad popped up lol
Airplane! is god-tier comedy, I fucking love that film.
Uni kid from Singapore here, they still use turnitin. My entire submissiom system, individual or group work and even exams, is dependent on the programme. So there's that.
Epic love it
Doctors and Nurses are held to really high standards - different med programs have different requirements. A friend of mine was in a Nurse's course and nearly failed out of it b/c you needed to maintain above a 2.5 gpa I believe? And this wasn't like, Nursing skills specifically, but higher sciences and anatomy etc etc. It impacts the person, but then you get into clinicals and a lot of your knowledge becomes a little about book learning but majorly hands on experience. That's why doctors do spend many years (at min 4) after medical school to get that hands on experience, then even more if they want to specialize.
And then despite any sort of knowledge or understanding about what they studied for they will prescribe and do practices according to what Big Pharma demands. And the government will approve the drugs and practices because they want to get jobs at the companies after their government position. People are so quick to forget how OxyContin was approved and distributed.
@@WhatIsYourCard I really don't think people forget how OxyCotin was overprescribed, nor the tenuous and dangerous relationship doctors and pharma companies can have. It's a bold, and worrying, assertion that this is how all doctors will manage your health. I, unluckily, have chronic illnesses and disabilities that require I navigate these systems and interact with multiple professionals. I have met rude, uncaring people and met genuine gems. Just like with people, all types of personalities will go into fields for different reasons. I'm US based, so I have the benefit of getting second opinions easily (even if my wallet cries), and it has been integral to maintaining myself.
Some doctors, even when they know the right medicine to prescribe for your problems, will still refuse because of what they learned during their time in med school. 🤷♀ For example: I went to a Rheumatologist who, despite me having biopsies done and a storied history with my autoimmune disease, doubted I had it. He knew keeping me on a low dose steroid (5-10mg) was the best way to manage my problems, but was reluctant and discouraging taking it - without offering me solutions to the problems that would crop up w/o some sort of medication management. The straw that broke the camels back was when he wanted me to have a 2nd biopsy, because despite having the ruling of my disease by another professional, *he* didn't get to see the actual biopsied cells. It's absolutely ridiculous and too expensive to just flippantly do something like that. I left, found a better doctor who specializes in my autoimmune, and have been getting healthier ever since.
But doc 1 must have gone through the system during a time where steroids were seen as evil without any benefit and should never be prescribed. Sure, they're not the best thing in the world and have side effects that need managing, but they are not the boogeyman. A true professional that cares for the patient can find a good middle ground between your Quality of Life and drug side effects.
Anyway, sorry for the long ass response here - I just don't want you, or anyone, to feel like a doctor will bend to pharma 100% of the time, or not care about health or shirk what they have learned for the sake of $$$.
I might as well have seen this podcast live god damn I'm early
This video is only 49 seconds old and it still has more comments than how many seconds it's been out
I highly highly encourage people to check out Ross's channel accursed farms. If you have never seen freeman's mind its an amazing series.
41:00 For me a really fun and creative way of using the AI art generators I found recently is the music video for "Bad Man" by Disturbed, which is entirely made out of AI generated images
Charlie always has the best Podcasts, hands down.
His pants

The greatest podcast of All time
Jackson really is the only redditor in this podcast.
Nope
Vaxxie! Vaxxie! No take backsie! 🎶
Subway Surfers is old news it's all about Minecraft parkour now🤣
why are some of the webcams always frozen on every episode?
New podcast video less go!
people coming here 37 seconds after the video is posted saying how good it was like they already watched it is hilarious
The thing that killed my respect for hbomax was when they got rid of like around 40 animated shows, including infinity train
Same, that was lame.
I have a cousin who's like 14 that grew up on an iPad his whole life entirely in the way kaya and andrew were describing and it literally fucked him up for life lmao, he spends all of his time staring at tiktoks or playing mindless games like subway surfers, just consuming whatever content it spits out at him but he never actually engages with anything in any deep level. literally you can't even have a conversation or talk to him because if you say anything he'll just stare blankly without responding or respond with something entirely different and go right back to his iPad. he can't even play games like cod or Fortnite because the second he gets to a point where he has to think or engage with anything that isn't handed to him he just shuts it off and goes back to the ipad. it goes without saying that it's his parents fault because they're bums and just sat him in front of it because they didn't want to do anything but there are so many kids like him that are growing up with every form of media and entertainment engineered to make them addicted and setting them up to be fucked for life
The Last of Us is so good that my middle school Spanish teacher talks about it
54:08 who made that "hello" sound?
What annoyed me about TLOS2 was how joel died. I don't mind the torture or Joel dying, but it was so forced and dumb how Joel just gave his name or didnt have any preparation when he spent the entire series being paranoid about others and surviving off his wit. Him giving his name was stupid, same with Abby assuming Joel was the one who killed her father without any investigation. It was shoehorned and disrespectful to his character.
YESSSSS THE MEUNDIES SPONSOR

1:12:51 i wouldn’t say it provoked any fear but brought more attention to it
The best argument possible for Jackson: first impressions matter
It's been a while since I've checked in with where Kaya lives. Is he in Turkey? Hope him and his family are doing okay since the horrible earthquake
My experience parenting in the modern age is as easy as not giving your child an iPad and not putting them in front of a tv all day. Sometimes in the morning we watch cartoons but other than that we go outside and play at the playground or play inside with her toys. In the evenings I put on some TH-cam videos for me with decent content (not too many bad words) and she plays with her toys. Just don’t let your child get on TH-cam until they’re of an age to understand what they’re watching and it’s that simple.
Sounds like my childhood- I’m 27 now I turned out just fine - tech was booming we had to and video games and computers…but not 24/7. We lived outside of it.
Parents need to be more like you
Definitely shoulda said spoiler alert before going so deep into last of us 2 😂
Hilarious thing about Roosterteeth is theyre probably next on the chopping block from HBO.
Jackson is so right about tlou2, gamers are too peabrained to confront a story that has actual moral dilemmas and tragedy
I do love hearing them argue about movies and media but if we're gonna be honest I just want to know when Brendan Fraser is going to finally come on the podcast!!
dahell that opening lolol
