So Mark Clayton thought maybe you could see some video of what he was talking about. Instead of searching the YouTube for highlights of the Dolphins' 37-31 win over Cleveland on December 12, 1988, where I passed Nat Moore's record for passes in a consecutive game (that was 37, because you were wondering), I found you a choice specimen of the asshattery that is DCUO and its promotional efforts.
Someone over at AssHat games thought it would be a brilliant idea to film a promotional video of some guy talking about the game while sitting in front of a TV showing other people talking about the game. Mark Clayton's favorite part: that same guy speaking appears in the video behind him.
Asshat meet Asshat.
Mark Clayton became further annoyed when this guy tried to say that
"This is the first time that you're gonna get to step in that universe. You always had to watch at a distance before."
He must have been referring to all those (mostly shitty) games where you could actually play as the character. This is akin to getting an NFL game and having to play as a fake team instead of the Miami Dolphins. Mark Clayton just made you say "Damn!"
I tell you, if I was a big a fan of Mark Clayton (and I am), I'd want to play as him, not make my own "Mark Claydupe" and then try to be buddies with him so I'd have an excuse to see him in my game. I understand that this is a MMORPG and that causes them to have to adjust the gameplay options, but still, why have a video that shows nothing but these characters you can't play as?Review Rating Redux: 1 open can of tuna
