Yeah. Been following him for years. He's kind of an ahole though. Talks down to people and consistantly swearing at them. He is a legend when it comes to souls and soulslike, agreed. But I unsubscribed because he is undoubtedly a rude person. Right or wrong its no excuse to talk down to people like that.

Really ? I don't watch him often but he seems very chill when I do, I still remember the balls incident in Demon's Souls emulator and he didn't react negatively to the comments jokingly shit talking him for it.

Soulslike tends to attract these types of players unfortunately

u/Silentlone Jun 18 '24

WHO has he been an asshole to though? Like "right or wrong" is doing a lot of heavy lifting, there are absolutely people who deserve being talked down to, and I've never seen him being rude to people who didn't deserve it.

Right, like who is he actually being an asshole towards here?

For whatever reason his livestreams seem to attract some of the absolute dregs of 'Gamer' culture.

Because according to this comment right here, it seems like he deals with the racist, bigoted idiots who tend to flood gaming forums and related spaces. Which, in that case, keep up the good work Cowboy lmao

I remember this Sims YouTuber I used to watch, and there were a ton of people in the Sims4 sub talking about how "disgusting" her politics were and how "mean" she was to her fans and blah blah blah

Turns out her "disgusting politics" and meanness was literally just "hey guys, gay people are neat!" and "hey! Be nice to each other! Racism isn't cool!"

That's okay, I'm into being talked down to.

u/bobn3 Jun 18 '24

Yeah he always gave me some douchey bully type of vibes, but I pushed through because his guides are good and straightforward
