Call for Personal Narratives
Tim's approach this time has left some wanting. Comments indicate that viewers prefer personal anecdotes and critiques over a straightforward game recap. "He doesn’t do it in service of personal anecdotes but just outright flat recap of the game," noted a viewer, emphasizing that some humor felt misplaced without personal context.

Another viewer expressed disappointment over Tim's divergence from past works that offered insightful analysis, stating, "I think Tim has an incredibly strong and unique voice but we see basically NONE of that here."
