What’s wrong wit Jim sterling?

[Natural Love]

Everytime i see him he runs around like a clown. Is he confused in some way or is he just trolling?

Yeah, Jim Sterling

who is Jim Sterling? Is it someone i should know?

he comments on games, does wrestling competitions, and talks about the stuff happening behind the scenes (in game companies, development teams, budgetary stuff, controversies, drama.) - that's all

Given your description. I mean he sounds interesting.

Jim is now trans, refers to themselves as they, and makes most episodes about gender politics.

It's fine, but more for people that enjoy that niche

This explains something.

When looking him/her/they up. I already wondered on why someone with a male name has a pfp of a woman.

wdym?

When she joined the podcast things were alright

Her and Gavin measured Jim's opinions.

But when Gav left, the entire podcast became less about games and fun, and more about real politics and the tone shifted from 'silly' to 'serious'

It became an echo chamber. All the old heads, like Total Biscuit, are gone, and no one was their to tell Jim any one thing was ridiculous.

Jim would often apologize on the cast for his behavior just a few years prior, and Laura would say "It's ok, you're better now, but forgiveness can be hard if it isn't earned"

It felt like she led every episode

They stopped doing content with Yahtzee . They stopped doing let's plays

What made the channel special unique and fun went away, and it was replaced by a person who is truly anger.

Not just at the world, but their audience and video games in general.

Spiteful and salty content are less for me.

I liked the cheeky Jim of the past, who had morals but still played in the mud a bit

I'm sure some people will disagree, and even enjoy the content more.

But I looked, and the podcast dropped in views about the same time I stopped listening

About 2/3rds smaller in fact.

And it hasn't recovered.
The jimquisition show has maintenaned a level of success, but the view counts should have been increasing.

They were going UP for years, now they are stuck.

Laura Kate dale is one of the primary reasons Jim's content became niche

I remember when Laura Kate threw TB under the bus after he had defended her and even batted for her in the past.

Then she got canned when Kotaku started reaping the effects of their rage-bait articles. It was a beautiful example of karma for doing what she did to someone who defended her while he was dying.

They used to be very animated and a little feminine but with a strong male ego at the head.

Now that's reversed.

I don't want to get too much into their personal business. But from just scrolling a few years down on youtube. They looked like the most normal dude you could imagine…

I don't mean this in any offensive way. It's just crazy to see a person change so much.

Laura is two-faced climber
She owes money to a few people on the Jim Sterling Facebook.
But she doxxed and banned them from the page so it's fine :)

They have an obnoxious personality and a crusader complex. And I say this as someone who agrees with most of their points.

It isn't hard to tell just looking at the articles and social media posts.

Kotaku made a funny little bed with that hire. Now they are a few locations short from where they used to be.

i think Jim's just running away from you, OP

[Leonardo Da Pinchi]

I won't lie, their cover on the whole Domina dev fiasco was amazing. The Dev got so triggered that Jim wasn't giving him attention, he tried to screech at Twitter citing Jim's account was "hacked and not under the owner's control".

Just to try to use Twitter support to bully Jim into actually replying to him.

Isn't that the chick who tried to cancel a singer because she misheard a lyric from a Persona 5 song?

Yep.

Oh Jim Jim Jim jimmity sterling, one who was respected but now is a giant smooth brain cuck

[Silverlight]

Jim sterling used to be on metacritic

Literally gave it up because they dont write traditional reviews anymore.
Didn't feel like playing the popular games anymore

Damn shame too, no one else had the guts to give BoTW a 7/10
