I only subscribed to him recently but he is a video game Youtuber who covers mostly the EA NHL series and because he has over eighteen thousand subscribers, was invited by EA to offer his opinion on how to improve NHL 16. I found myself agreeing with most of what he said so maybe that is why i enjoyed it more then you did, my deepest apologies to you good sir.
my point is that the videos that are worthwhile are the ones that have ea employees showing off new features and explaining why things are or arent in the new version. they tease fans by showing them new features and getting them excited for the release.

whereas this video was just a fan giving his opinion. so my point is that if russic posted a video of himself watching the video and commenting, it ads little to the expectations of the game. and personally i dont care how many subscribers that guy (or russic for that matter!) have. its irrelevant.

and its cool he was part of the gamechanger program. a few years ago jobo was a part of it. but that doesnt make his evaluation of the current video (which was posted 3 days ago by kipper is king) any more educated than us. because he wasn't part of the team that made the final decisions and produced the video. his opinions are purely speculation. what he learned previously is most likely changed. projects like these are fluid for a variety of reasons.


regardless, we've spent way too long talking about the dude instead of the game. i was just surprised that anyone was impressed with his video. after watching the first one a few weeks back, i found him pretty borish.
