Epic seems kinda shook from Apeleg (given the impromptu "HEY PLS PLAY FORTNITE!!!" emails and promotions), so I figure they have some kind of internal projection that suggests it
is eating into their playerbase.
They really seem to want to stifle Apeleg's momentum.
I'm finally watching the Anthem video and yeah... Yikes...
I feel like Jeff has been a lot more negative in general in the recent months... To an almost aggressive levels sometimes...
I just hope everything is going all right for him.
To be clear, I'm not trying to defend Anthem... I think it looks like a very generic "one of those". I just think that video in particular was another example of that stuff I'm talking about with Jeff.
Ehh, Jeff comes down like a hammer on games he finds aggressively bad. He's been like this as long as I've followed Giant Bomb, and I really don't think it's new behaviour.
I'd agree that he can be tough to listen to if you disagree with him. Though even then, I think he's still approach it with genuine criticism (even if he's wrong).
