Asmongold reacts to the Dead by Daylight developers folding under 0 pressure after promoting TheBurntPeanut "So basically Dead by Daylight promoted TheBurntPeanut and gave him a bunch of skins and everything in the game. People got mad about it and Dead by Daylight was like, we can handle this. We don't care. It's not a big deal." "What these people have done is collectively gotten together to chimp out over a peanut being accepted by the Dead by Daylight developers. Everybody is crying about this. It's another example of these people that get together and they collectively bully a developer by crashing out on social media for a couple of days, and they make a developer do something differently." "So they folded under zero pressure. That's basically what happened. This is why I think that we need to be so aggressive against these people. If we're not aggressive against these people, these people will dominate the conversations and they will define the culture because they do jump out, they do crash out." "Every single hostile, negative, psychotic comment that you guys make, as long as it's not encouraging violence, I'm pretty much in favour of. You guys need to come out and be a lot more outspoken about this, because unless you want to have every single community run by performative drag queens. What these people really care about is control and power. And they are bullies. And until they are made to stop, they will not stop." "There is no world in which you can coexist with these people. You either have to take the culture back out of their hands that they are trying to define, or you should expect them to define every aspect of your life and culture and then tell you how you need to behave. These people are genuinely a malignant cancer into any community and any area that they touch. They get together and they bully a company like this, and then the company capitulates to them, and then it creates a feedback loop."

Asmongold reacts to the Dead by Daylight community trying to get TheBurntPeanut removed from The Streamer Awards "Do you think QTCinderella will bend the knee on the Peanut thing? No. The reality is that Peanut didn't do anything wrong. The only real instance is he used a slur once. Other than that, Peanut hasn't done anything bad. He's never been racist. He's never degraded a group of people or promoted serious discrimination. He's made jokes like 'look at this girl boss in Gears of War,' but that's just guys laughing about nonsense." "You're starting to see a lot of the slower moving pieces of the culture moving away from accommodating certain activist groups. And I think they're lashing out a lot because of that. You're seeing less performative representation in media. Woke isn't dead because a lot of people refuse to actually want to push back on it. Nobody wants to go all out against these people, so they continue regrouping and becoming more extreme over time." "Where is the proof of peanut being a racist? There's literally no proof of this. These people just make up a lie about you, then they repeat the lie to each other enough times and it becomes the truth. There's no evidence. No examples of him saying one group is inferior or shouldn't be here. This is why I never get upset when these people have bad things happen to them. They lie about everybody. They misrepresent everything. They hate him because he's a white guy that isn't woke. That's all." "Here's what you have to keep in mind with everybody who is pretending like they're going to stop playing the game. None of these people stopped using Twitter when Elon Musk bought Twitter. So how is it that you're going to refund a video game that you play? A lot of these people play it on stream. If you're a Dead by Daylight streamer with 20 or 30 viewers and you swap to another game, you will probably lose almost all of your viewers. It will effectively kill your stream." "A lot of these people can't even regulate their own behaviour for entertainment on social media. You don't need Twitter for your brand. No streamer needs Twitter. Nobody needs to post that they're going live or make social statements there. A lot of successful people don't do that. If these people can't manage to stop using Twitter even though they think the owner is a Nazi, how are you going to believe they're going to refund the game and stop playing something they've played for thousands of hours over some nonsense? They're not going to do that." "Anybody who's on Twitter who says they're going to stop playing this game is lying, because if they really cared about ideology, they wouldn't be on Twitter."

Asmongold explains what should happen to nuisance content creators like the one who harassed the Red Baron employee "Here's what my opinion is on this. Obviously this guy is totally in the right. He's being harassed by another idiot. I think we need to stop allowing these random idiots on social media to go around and harass people in public and make content about it. This has to stop." "In my opinion, anybody who does this should be immediately arrested. I really mean that. I don't want to live in a world where people are making a career out of harassing people in supermarkets and stores. I think most of us don't want to live in that world." "Who actually wants to live in a world where people are going around on social media and harassing random employees or random shoppers, and then making money and content off of it? Does anybody actually want this? No, we don't. So why do we let it happen?" "We could give people the death penalty for this. I'm not saying we should, but we can. It's democracy. If we all get out there and vote, we can just have a law written that says if you harass people and you're doing it on social media with a camera and uploading it to a stream, you immediately go to jail for like five years." "And you know what would happen? All of this would instantly disappear overnight. It would be gone. All of it would be gone."

Asmongold says American game studios are pricing themselves out of the market "American studios are simply being priced out of the market. Studios cannot afford 120k salary retards sitting in an office doing nothing for a game that sells 400,000 copies. Well, you know what that means, right? It means you're going to have to fire all the women. So it's going to happen. Fire all the women. And then after that, we can finally get some games again." "So we have some guys in an office getting the work done, doing shit. And you don't have to worry about any of the bullshit. So it's going to be great. I'm excited. So in the pronoun people." "The big problem that Western game development has, especially American game development, is that they have a fixation around things that the player doesn't care about, whether it is identity, whether it is ideology, whether it is air in the building, whether it is having these different quotas for hiring." "Fundamentally, what these companies care about is not creating a good product for the user. And that's the main issue. If your goals are not directly aligned with the actual player's goals and what the player wants, then you're done. It's not going to go anywhere. Why would somebody want to play a game from somebody that doesn't even care about them as the player? The player should be the end all and be all for every decision inside of a video game." "How does this improve the experience for the player? And do more players want this or do more players not want this? Yeah, I call them consensus caretakers. Western game devs are pricing themselves out of the market. I feel like all these Triple-A game studios are going to be dead. In ten years from now, we're probably going to see maybe 3 or 5 big Triple-A game studios in America. And other than that, I feel like it's probably going to be over."

Asmongold calls out Lacy for lying about paying the $12,000 food bill in Japan to make the restaurant look bad "The guy yesterday who was going around in Japan saying that his viewers ordered a bunch of food and so he had to pay for all of it, then he got exposed for lying about it by the restaurant, and he made the restaurant look bad. Well guess what? He's now made a statement to try to clear his name." "I want to clear up the restaurant situation in Japan due to the language barrier. I genuinely thought that I was responsible for the $12,000 bill. Initially, I told the restaurant that I'd cover it, asked them to give the extra food to families, and left my assistant to handle everything. When I got back on stream, I was frustrated and thinking that I owed $12,000. I started talking and trolling about it on stream like an idiot. After I found out that I only had to pay for the extra food that was already prepared and not the entire bill. Where I went wrong was not correcting the story once I found out. I never expected anything to go so viral. I'm dumb and I thought it was funny." "So you lied. Okay. Got it. Him acting like he actually felt the 12k until the restaurant exposed him. Are we really going to believe this after you get exposed?" "IRL streamers need to just be banned from Japan. I swear, all they do is just go and do dumb, disrespectful shit. I've seen signs in Japan where it says you can't stream in here because people turn Japan into a zoo." "He was acting like he actually paid the 12k until the restaurant exposed him. You literally affirmed that you paid 12k, you fat fucking liar. Chad came over with the first receipt and they had a 500,000 yen max. Then he comes over with two more. It was like 1.5 million yen. And then they come out with 15 plates of food that just had to go to waste." "He totally made this bullshit up just to make himself look good. And now obviously he's trying to farm these guys. Mistake after mistake and apologised over the backlash gets to be too much, but never ever change their approach to making content in a meaningful way that cuts down on these mistakes. That's why every single one of these apologies is a complete and utter lie." "I never expected it to go so viral. Well, he tried to make it go viral by saying that he had to spend $12,000 accidentally but I guess I can give it out to charity to all the families that need it. That's absolutely something that you're saying if you're trying to farm PR for yourself and trying to make yourself look good. Speaking as a streamer, that is 100% what he was trying to do."

Asmongold predicts what game will win Game of the Year

Asmongold explains why conservatives are terrified of taking action "This is the problem that conservatives and Republicans and right wing people have all across the world is that they are allergic to action. They are terrified of actually taking action. And I can see why. The way that we learn history is the horrors of when somebody takes action. There's usually a lot of collateral damage." "But now, you know, Gamow has been housing for 30 inmates. Let's up those numbers. Yeah, exactly. They call you fascist because they're 100% certain that you're not. Do you know what countries they don't call the government fascist in? Fascist countries. Try saying that in North Korea. You're dead."

Asmongold reacts to Pokimane showing deepfake p*rn after complaining about it "She's so patronising and annoying. It's actually impressive. It's really impressive to be this obnoxious and annoying. An average person couldn't even do this on accident. You would have to really try to do this." "They're all awful fake people that sit in an ivory tower while they pretend to be the most perfect people on the internet." "But the moment that they have to do something that's not curated and manicured with four different levels of PR speak, they end up showing the deepfake p*rn on their stream themselves that they've been spending the last week complaining about. The moment they go off script even slightly, that's what happens." "I love seeing these people get harassed. I love seeing these people get called out. I think they absolutely fucking deserve it. They are awful. They are terrible. They constantly talk shit. They're totally fucking fake. They're going out there doing the same things that they accuse other people of." "They flag for PvP and attack you, and then when something comes back to them, they act like they were never flagged to begin with. They are the most passive aggressive, just nasty, just awful. They're fake mean girls. You weren't able to do this in high school because you weren't pretty enough or people didn't like you, so now you're doing it while you're 30 years old on the internet. It's pathetic." "There are a lot of these like this. And it's not just women that act this way. I don't think this is a woman only thing. I think this is just something that bad actors and people that are just shitty people do. But luckily a lot of people are calling this out. We should never let her live this down." "The fact that you went out and you literally showed deepfake porn just so you could make it about yourself three years after the fact, because maybe you didn't get invited to a wedding or something. So you just go out and draw attention to more deepfake porn for everybody now. I saw somebody tell me that the Google search results for Pokemon or whatever are up 40% this week for image results. So I wonder why that is."

Asmongold says that Lacy is this streaming generation's Mizkif "You know, I'm going to say something. You know who Lacy really reminds me a lot of? He reminds me a lot of The Mizkif. He does a lot of the same cheesy, weird shit that Mizkif would do back in the day. I see Lacey going down the exact same path. He does feel like this streaming generation's Mizkif." "What a fucking weirdo, bro. What a total fucking weirdo. How embarrassing. Of course he lied. Every streamer does shit like this for content. No, dude. No, they don't. I hate that people say that. We should criticise streamers way more harshly than an average person, but no, everybody doesn't lie to seem like they're a good person and then make a restaurant look stupid." "One of the reasons why I don't do IRL streams anymore is because I went to a Wendy's the day they brought back the spicy nuggets, and everybody in the chat was spamming the address. I saw the phone ringing over and over. I realised my presence was causing these workers being paid $11 or $12 an hour to be harassed by viewers who just think it's funny." "I felt like, is this the kind of person I want to be? No, it's not. So I just left, and that's why I don't go."

Asmongold reacts to Trump roasting a protester at one of his rallies "Trump flames a protester. Hey, that guy is probably 45, 50 years old. They give him $250. We haven’t traced down $250, and he screws up his life. And now he goes home and his boyfriend gets upset with him." "I think things would be so much better if we just had a system where Donald Trump can remain the president, but he doesn’t really do anything. He just goes out and does speeches and takes credit for things. Meanwhile, like Marco Rubio or somebody else actually goes out and does all the work." "Yeah, he’s like the king. But then you have somebody else that’s like the prime minister that’s actually doing all the real work. He’s a figurehead. I think that would be way better." "Just unplug the controller and let him keep going. Why not? Because he is really funny. He’s hilarious." "It was like watching Jordan in the 90s. You knew what you were witnessing would never be duplicated. Same with watching Trump. It’s like watching Michael Jackson or Freddie Mercury. This is peak entertainment. Or watching Lord of the Rings and thinking, is it ever going to get better than this?"

Asmongold reacts to Patrick Stewart passing away at the age of 86. "Fuck, man. 86 years old." "Yeah, the goat man. He had a long, good run. An amazing life. He didn't look a day over 70. This dude looked the same age for like 50 years." "Jesus, that's really sad. That's awful. The man's a legend. Sir Patrick Stewart. That picture is from 28 years ago or something. 86 years old. That's insane." "Congrats on a beautiful legacy. Everybody knew this guy was a fucking legend. And the fact that he was still making movies at that age is incredible. It's so sad to see what happens with people with Alzheimer's." "Memorial contributions may be made to Johns Hopkins Alzheimer's Disease Research Center and the Alzheimer's Foundation of America. That's awesome. Hopefully they can find a cure. It's just so scary to have something like that happen."

Asmongold expects discovery to be huge in the Piker vs Jennings case "I think that's really what it's going to hinge on, is that Hasan does have a long history of violent rhetoric. So really, could somebody listen to this and assume that he meant it? Yeah, I think somebody could." "If Scott Jennings knew that Hasan was reading a message from somebody else and he uploaded this knowing that Hasan didn't actually mean it, Scott should lose. My other opinion is this should happen to like a thousand people. So when I see it happen to Hasan, I'm thinking to myself, okay, yeah, of course this is going to happen to him because he's doing it to these people all the time." "How does anybody know that with absolute certainty? They can prove it if they get discovery. You have to prove it with private messages. A totally different account posted it before Scott Jennings did, and that's why suing for damages is going to be almost impossible because this clip didn't come from Scott, it came from the Senate Republicans. I don't know what's going to happen. I've never heard of a defamation case like this ever before." "Hasan has 20 minute compilations of him inciting political violence. The idea that Hasan would not incite political violence against black people is ridiculous. I think many reasonable people would assume that clip is true because there have been many other clips of Hasan inciting political violence."

Kaise confronts Asmongold about not flushing and asks when he’s going to start

Asmongold finds clips of Hasan doing the same thing he’s suing Scott Jennings for "There's always a clip. How is there always a clip? You don't need discovery. It's on YouTube." "Hassan is accusing Ben Shapiro of the exact same thing that he's suing Scott Jennings for. If anything this is even worse, because Hassan is going out there and saying it himself. Ben Shapiro didn't say this. Hassan is just putting words in his mouth." "He did the exact thing that he's suing somebody for. Don't ever listen to somebody like him tell you that he cares about accuracy or accountability. He does this to people all the time." "He's not mad about somebody being accused of wanting to support lynchings. He's mad that he's not the one making the accusation. He's like, you can't use that card. That's my card. I tell people that they want lynchings. You can't tell people that I want lynchings." "There are two instances already of Hassan doing the exact same thing to other people. But if anything it's even worse, because Scott Jennings played a clip of him saying it. Hassan just invents the whole thing. He lies about everybody. He will always misrepresent and totally just lie about anything."

Asmongold loses it after watching Trump talk about Nicki Minaj’s ass

Asmongold explains why people hate games with forced DEI in them "The real reason they don't go against that is a culture of toxic positivity where you can't go against this inclusion because doing so is basically discrimination according to these people. So they have the perfect environment that insulates them from any level of accountability and any restriction." "Because if you tell them this isn't really going to be popular, people aren't going to like this for an identity reason, then you are possibly going to lose your job. HR protects these people." "People play video games to get away from people like this. You have to deal with a person like this in your real life. You don't want to deal with this person. The moment this person is in a video game, you're not having fun anymore because it reminds you of being at work." "That's it. We play video games to get away from people like you. We hate people like you. So the moment we have to see you in a game, we're going to hate the game too."

Asmongold reacts to Trump playing a Hasan supercut and says he’s the perfect enemy for Republicans "Remember I said Republicans love Hasan? He is the perfect enemy. He is the perfect bad actor. Every negative stereotype rolled up into one person." "He could win here in Minnesota. Yeah, because you invited a bunch of terrorists and terrorist supporters in. People that aren’t Americans who hate the country. You let them have a million kids and nobody wants to actually get rid of them. That’s the problem." "That is diabolical. That’s so fucked. What an edit. What a crazy fucking edit."

Asmongold says the backlash against Youmacon for removing Kirsche isn’t enough "By the way, the amount of hostility and aggression here is not enough. Keep turning it up. You have to make these people terrified to express their opinions. You have to make them terrified to do their little moral grandstanding bullshit." "If you guys really want to control more of the ecosystem, you need to massively jump out and freak out and cause absolute chaos when they invite somebody who is an open leftist or somebody who supports Charlie Kirk being killed. The only way to beat these people is with unmitigated extreme aggression, because that’s how they beat you." "If you don’t do that, they will define the terms and tell you what you have to do. Go ape mode. Chimp the fuck out. I never support violence. We never support violence at all. Don’t do something that’s going to get you banned." "You need to create your own ecosystems and then weaponise those ecosystems the same way they do, and damage their ecosystems by attacking them and removing their funding. A lot of people that think like me have a problem because they’re not bad people. This idea never comes to them." "Why don’t we push back more? Because when we do it, people say that I’m being mean. They say I go too far, that I’m too extreme. The only reason I don’t do worse is because of the TOS. I try to be a good guy."

Asmongold announces his plans for WoW Forever "My plan by the way in Forever, I'm going to play Warlock on a PvP server. I'm going to play Warrior on PvE and Warlock on PvP"

Kaise scolds Asmongold for not flushing the toilet yet again then finds a pee stain on his chair
