I have to admit, I bought the space poncho because it makes me look like the general from Z

Perfectly fine, I thought it was someone's take on things as the thread implied, but it just a guy reading a news paper after election day...
I mean I read the first replies and thought this guy was something special and watched it. Now I want my 17 minutes back.

No he's simply a guy with 1 million viewers from the gamers community so he has the power to negatively affect the Odyssey sales.
I guess OP point is that if the Odyssey flop reached this guy means that the fail is big because he generally talks about big games and big corporates and not niche games.
maybe unpopular opinion: i think YY just always jumps on a train, when there is something trending. havent seen yet, he pointed out something first. there is some controversy growing, so he makes a video about it. i dont say its necessarily bad (hey, he covers topics for people who are his fans and dont watch other channels much), but hes not original creator to me.
edit: but i see im late to that topic, already said here guess i should read all posts before posting something

I totally agree - other peoples opinions are very important, and we can / should learn from them - Free speech should definitely never be stifled. - I'm just very skeptical of people who are being paid for expressing their opinion(s).
At the minute - a lot of these opinions just come across as Mob Rules / jumping on the bandwagon - as indeed does a lot of Social Media. The first smell of blood, and suddenly people who have never shown an interest before are posting vitriolic messages. Schadenfreude / trial by media is the new norm, it would appear.
To quote god knows who it was, social media is 'Giving a voice to the vacuous' (says me expressing an opinion on a forum
)Anyway back to work, and then back to playing the game.
EDIT: If I hear the phrase 'Occlusion Culling' one more time, I may well explode. People quoting this / somebody else's thread or wikipedia does not mean you are an expert in it, or understand it.

Awesome news, that this game finally isn't niche anymore
Some people really seem to hate that. A bit ironic, considering they are posting their opinion on this forum.
It's a shame TotalBiscuit is no longer with us, he'd be bigger than PewDiePie by now if he was, and yeah I am sure he'd be ripping Frontier to shreds, but he'd also not over-exaggerate the issues and wouldn't make a clickbait video.
It'd probably be titled something like "I shall now comment for 45 minutes on the state of Elite Dangerous Odyssey" (yes, that is how he titled some of his videos)
Here's what he said about Elite Dangerous ....

That's hardly a valid reasoning.
On one hand we're handing out station names and plants to 'influencers' who say good things. But if someone says something bad, aka the truth, their opinion is invalid or they're a nobody...

I don't pay attention to any "influencers".
For the same reason. I'm here to play a game, not feed someone's ad revenue.
I seem recall to him reviewing ED (or Star Citizen) many years ago.
Could the same not be said of Tubers who posts videos on how to get rich quick? Or How to use the latest exploit? Are they not too, using clickbait to gain subs or views?
If you don't like a video, don't push dislike. Pressing dislike is counted as an interaction and actually helps the video.

His platform is huge, though.
So is my ego ... yet no-one pays attention to that
Just watched it. I think overall he's been very fair with the criticism and when looking at reviews he didn't go for the hysterical ones but focused on those giving constructive feedback.
All we can do though is wait for FD to sort some of these issues out.

Just woke up and gave a quick read to this thread..
I understand loving something and trying to defend it, but this is more like pure and utter denial.
How can you refuse and minimize factual data like this?
A youtube channel whit 1 mil.+ viewers have a bad opinion of Odyssey so he must be dismissed and ridiculed?
I dont like that guy but ive watched the video, he is spot on on the complaints.
Again how can you guys dismiss and refuse factual data like this?
And i tought that ED was a niche game whit a majority of "aged" gamers (like myself), i must be wrong..

His video already has twice as many views as Yamik's. In under 12 hours.
It's very funny how so many here underestimate his reach, and is very indicative of how sheltered a lot of folks here are to the wider gaming world.
