He thinks that production value will automatically make his content funnier. There's an old episode of Game Grumps where him and Arin got into an argument about it and for once Arin was in the right saying that production value doesn't affect humor.
damn shame. He's still funny sometimes but you can tell what was written by him and what was just provided.
arin would say that though since he's such a lazy fuck
I can't believe John "Nigger Safari" Jafari the Iranian white supremacist sold out like this bros...
>production value doesn't affect humor.
It DOES though, it makes it worse, you subconsciously notice how scuffed everything is and smile at it.
Literally who?
He was never funny.
He got older
>Chris, please let me be on a let's play.
He still is?? It's the other way around actually.
didn't he just move to the UK
It was the same with Sam Hyde
Him bullying his mom was hilarious
arin used to be different
in fact, in the early days of GG Zig Forums used to hate jon and love arin
>you’re older
>you still live in your moms basement
>not in a penthouse
Big mad big sad user
I suppose now that he has more fans he has to be more careful and also pander to the lowest common denominator.
he was never funny again after he left game grumps
True. No matter how much production value he puts into it, GG is still not funny.
Bad production values are good for campy or absurdist humour but high production values allow for more elaborate setups, scenarios or punchlines. Blazing Saddles or Monty Python’s The Crimson Permanent Assurance skit from the start of The Meaning of Life are good examples of jokes that would be brutally difficult to make with a shoestring youtube budget.
>posting cringe
There really has to be a medium with production value. At the time, the reason AVGN Bugs Bunny skits were so funny was because of how “cheap” it looked. We obviously knew it wasn’t Bugs Bunny and just some guy in a costume throwing bags of pudding or something. But the over the top-ness if the situation is what made it funny rather than the believability.
A lot of the reason humor fails today is that it tries too hard in certain aspects, especially believability.
watched his disney bootleg video recently. it's weird cause some of the jokes and comedic elements like the bootleg puppets and reacting to simba hanging himself had at least a hint of being funny, but then he cuts to some retarded twerk or puts on a dress and it feels completely devoid of humor. he was always more funny with honest reactions and coupling comedic skits with some darker undertone.
The truth is the best creative products are produced from a dark place of misery and suffering, that's why when people become successful their creations quality suffers
The shit he does nowadays is entertaining in a braindead way, just like classic television, but it certainly is not FUCKING VIDEO GAMES.
who's this cool gal?

Good thing Jon is not even close to the level in which you are describing.
Barry doesn't write and edit for him anymore.
nigga looks like an earthworm
I want to fuck that skilled dyke.
E-celeb Garbage doesn't belong on Zig Forums
All he has to do is dress up as a woman and put on a falsetto voice and he's as funny as Monty Python.
Mudslimes can't be racist silly.
mods disagree.
That whole interview in his newest video is cringe.
With sam all his more talented and funny partners left him, and now he takes experimental dick pills, testosterone injections, and fucks trannys.
what was his name again?
How exactly do his new videos have a higher production value? He may have more props to fuck around with, and the camera and set are high quality but it's still him commenting on random shit.
All he had to do was not abandon video games. The odd video on some stupid infomercial from 3 decades ago is okay, but entirely abandoning the content that made you popular in the first place is just shitty.
I doubt his opinions have changed much, he just has the sense to not express them publicly again.
>All Jon has to do is be good as Monthy Python
That is NEVER gonna happen.
Jon is hardly /vidya/ these days though.
I mostly stopped watching him after he stopped reviewing games. His newer shit just isn't as funny.
he abandoned his older influences of AVGN and RLM in favor of more H3H3 style video content which is awful and sucks
Alt lite simp #213
Wasn't there one where they raped Anita?
I remember it being almost fappable
Sadly he's not videogames anymore.
