Watch as he shows no signs of reacting as he continues to walk towards an enemy. Even after he lands, he keps walking forward...
That he still holds forward on the stick as he lands on the ground, even up until the point where the enemy is right in his face, is the part that baffles me. This problem transcends game genre. Those are the reactions of a sloth.

Exactly, there is no way anybody remotely engaged with gaming can continually perform to that level, even if they had zero experience with genre to start.
Even if you're a BAD gamer, there should be capacity to grasp the low hanging fruit, so to speak. This isn't a gamer in action, it is business and PR person who doesn't really enjoy gaming enough to pay attention.
