BALDUR'S GATE 3 out now! https://baldursgate3.game/Featuring @LikeAFoxStudios @TrentLenkarski @CalvinLaVallee and @mollygarcia More Animations - https://www....
I love Joel but the ending where it was like “SPONSERED BY BALDUR’S GATE 3” really woke me up to realize I just watched a 6-and-a-half-minute ad and that’s it. In fact, I feel like if he had put at the start of the video, I would have taken it a whole lot differently.
Yeah, I was caught off guard by it and thought it was a joke but it seemed clear by the end it was Joel’s way of displaying that the video was a paid ad. IMHO, is far too late in the video to display such information.
Why do you appreciate Larian more? Larian is just paying people to make ads. A lot of studios don’t even do their own marketing and just pay ad agencies. Either way seems silly to praise Larian for paying for ads.
He has 1.8 million subs and makes videos about fantasy universes and video games. He’s an obvious choice IMHO. Also again, unlikely anyone at Larian said “yes, him exactly” and more that an ad agency sent out emails to contacts and worked with people to pick the best and most able.
Exactly. That kind of stuff is not what many companies would approve to officially represent their product. Then again, it is weirdly on brand of course …

I first thought it was a joke, but no, it’s legit, lol. Just makes me appreciate Larian more.

I think he means he’s praising Larian for choosing Joel to make an ad for them. His humor is not exactly mainstream
