I gotta support LudicrousSpeed on this. PewDiePie might be able to escape from the controversy by technicality, but this episode proves he's untrustworthy and that his opinions are for sale.

But he doesn't even give his "opinion" if he was spending the whole video saying "Wow look at these graphics" "OMG this is awesome" "This is going to be such a great game."  "This is the best game i've played in ages."

But he doesn't, he literally gives an opinion once in the entire video right as it's ending which was just "I had a lot of fun playing this game."

It really doesn't prove his "opinions are for sale" I doubt the video would have been any different if WB weren't involved at all.

It might not have been different. The game in question is excellent.

But that's not the point. It doesn't matter if he expressed opinion A or opinion B. What matters is that those opinions could have been bought by WB. PewDiePie could have obscured any warts in the game because WB insisted upon their exclusion. 

If people want to treat his videos as entertainment, then great. But in light of this controversy, I don't think anyone should take his recommendations seriously. 

The whole thing is just slimy.
