    Well it doesnt matter, he acknowledged they are probably bootlegs in the comments and updated the title. People make mistakes, but its not a very big one here (was just something he didnt even consider) and the overall point of the video is still the same.

      It’s a pretty big mistake, though given it’s his second (casual) channel it is very low stakes.

      He can’t posit that re-releases are being done on single layer DVDs to save money, but use bootlegs as proof. Bootlegs aren’t a DVD release done by the distributor. That’s a pretty fatal flaw in logic.

      It’s the equivalent of “Steam games are getting re-released in a weird way” and linking to Pirate Bay torrents, and the entire video is about how cheap games have gotten since they don’t have Steam features like achievements and cloud-save.

        It’s a tiny mistake that literally has no effect at all on the over all message of the video. It’s a fun “huh” moment to realize what’s actually happening. But nothing more.

        It’s really not a big deal lol. He already pointed out his error and leaving the video up is fine, it’s showing that you can make mistakes and hold accountability. But its a fucking DVD video, let’s not blow something so minor out of proportion for “drama” lmao

        Also, that analogy couldnt be any more off the mark.

          It’s not drama, I’m just surprised is all. He’s usually very good about his accuracy, so when the entire premise is wrong I would have expected him to retract the video instead of leaving a comment someone can miss.
