  • Then that is advertising the game not the episode. And please do not be an idiot. He got the game at least a day or so before, but remember editing and cutting the section he played up. Now please tell me why this wasn't a huge middle finger to the fans who waited.

    He posted the video 2 hours before the actual release? There is a complete gain in advertising; Not everyone is as informed as we are t

  • As opposed to the other subscribers who have a fairly large fanbase and actually care about what they play.

    You guys seem to overlook the fact that pewdiepie has 22 million subscribers, and I believe he is currently most subscribed on all of YouTube.

    He waited just as long, only difference is he waited a day or so less; big deal. Tell me how that is an issue worth getting worked up about. He got it a bit earlier: so what? Why should you care? You're going to get it the next day, so why get so worked up about if? I don't see any problem here.

  • I never saw the allure of Pew. All he does is scream in his videos and act a fool. His style of humor is something that's only funny once in awhile, not constantly. At least to me he isn't funny.

  • Pew can go die in a hole.

    The fact is he has 21,000,000 subscribers. giving him a copy is advertising in itself

  • Everyone should go check out Pew's page on encylcopedia dramatica if you want some funny reading material.

  • You're kind of being a big baby.

    So Pewdiepie gets Early Access and it's not OK...

    But when even more people get it early, its fine. One person opposed to a whole group of people: THAT is favoring Let's players.

    As opposed to the other subscribers who have a fairly large fanbase and actually care about what they play.

  • Pewdiepie is the most irritating let's player... Radbrad and Nova are better

  • Anyone is better.

  • I'm sure they do have a fairly large fanbase, but not a 22 million large fanbase.

  • Oh I love TheRadBrad I subscribed to him he is amazing. But I guess I still do watch PewDiePie sometimes /:

    I have very little respect for Pewdiepie just based on the fact of how annoying he is. He makes videos for little kids who enjoy that ish but

    A lot of people know of The Wolf Among Us from Pewdiepie. The fact that they gave him a copy of the game few hours before the release isn't a

  • Unfunny durtbag!

  • That's how I found out about the game & bought it.

    What´s your problem, he just got it like cuople of hours before us! Pewdiepie gotta 22 million subscribers so is that miracle if he gets it be

    Do you really piss and moan about people who get stuff an hour, day, week, or a month before you? Is it a big deal if 80% of youtubers get to beta test google glasses and you didn't? No. Is it out of the normal for people who have some kind of influence (in this case the gaming community) to have an advantage in some way shape or form of a game? No. It is called advertising. It got me into the game. Pewdiepie isn't the only one who probably got the game before us. It's not the end of the world. If you pay for it, you get it. Big whoop. And seriously? Why hate on the guy? Does his positive attitude/ humor really just ruin your day?
    And it's TellTale's business, not yours. Get your own gaming company and run it how you like.

  • I watched the Playthrough of Hannah and she was pissed about it Lol, Rightly so there a lot of other Youtubers out there who have made their games so succesful and they don't get the same treatment

  • Calm down a little bit, we have a right to say our opinions. I don't care that Pewdiepie got early access, some people like me just find him annoying. If you don't like it, too bad

  • He's the most popular youtube gamer or some bullshit. He gets special treatment.

  • Well, no duh! He has 22 million active viewers, which is why Telltale gave him a copy: to give the game publicity.

  • So after years of human evolution, 22 million people currently subscribe to this guy. Some time between 2 million year ago and now, humanity made a wrong turn.

  • He gets around 1 million views and they are all 10/11 year old girls who likes everything mainstream

  • That isn't true: I sometimes watch Pewdiepie (though not as much as I used to) and I would never have heard of The Walking Dead without watching playthroughs of it, nor would I buy season 2 as a result.

    Pewdiepie is a business option, nothing more.

  • Don't most 'let's players' suck at games anyway? Usually their commentary makes up for their complete lack of awareness and/or them not playing the game properly, 'usually'. I say that with a little annoyance towards them, although Pewdipie is definitely not an exception, him being insanely annoying and uses retarded video thumbnails for his playthroughs.

    also a sucky player

  • If you literally bought it purely because he played it, then yeah that's terrible.

    If you bought it because you saw him play it thought you might enjoy it yourself, then that's fine.

    Is it bad that I'm one of those people who bought "The Wolf Among Us" because Pewdiepie played it?

  • Recommend never using famous game reviewers as most time paid off and if he getting early access that's danger sign for me usually check wiki on games gives you bunch website reviews out of 10 to get general idea then checking reviews on youtube just to check out gameplay works well for me leading to purchases this year for me of max payne 3, last of us, bioshock infinite, telltale walking dead, heavy rain etc and have been some best games ever played and wouldn't of took a chance on.

    yeah,they mostly saying useless commentary that takes a while before starting the game,it is very recommended to search for no commentary walkthrough,although some of them still sucks anyway,the pro walkthrough player I known this far are gameoxo,devildoggamer,and gtaseriesvideo

  • Then don't watch him. It's simple. Gosh you're telling him to calm down when he has a calm attitude, at least from what I see when there are people crying and moaning over Pdp getting it an hour earlier. It's not a big deal. Jeez.

    If you don't like him getting it early, too bad.

  • They don't have 22 Million subs. It's a business decision, and a smart one, to gain publicity, and they wont waste their time for those who don't give them the most publicity. Harsh, yes, but that's the way business is, even with Telltale.

  • I really am not a hug fan of Pewds but really? Its not fair that he get the game first. Just because he has a huge following community, doesnt mean he should be able to post videos about it until its actually released. It still would be used as advertising if he posted it on the release date.

    Just because he's one uber popular youtuber, doesnt make it right to get special privileges.

  • I thought hating others and being jealous are my country traditions. I don't see a reason to hate Felix. He's good entertainer, funny guy. His TWD and TWAU walkthroughs are not boring. PewDiePie is engaged player and his choices aren't bad or stupid (farfromsubtle). Because of popularity, giving him early access is understandable. I'm not a fan or subscriber but when I want check new game walktrough, I'm checking his site. Okay, his bros army's comments are annoying, I believe most of them are kids. Is Pewds annoying? Not really. Other popular let's players are more.
