* MookHorrorShow: Player characters are portrayed as mass swarm of people that murder enemy mooks in mere seconds, with one Mawsworn guard running for his life to get away from them.

* HeelRealization: In "[=WoW=] Players Experience FFXIV" video, the ex-[=WoW=] player flew into cursing rant after his party experienced a full party wipe and attempting to leave, but the group leader, a veteran ''FFXIV'' player, instead just encourages him to try again in a most friendly manner and if they waste time, then they waste time ''together''. The ex-[=WoW=] player was humbled and touched, after being so used in a toxic environment that he was being unnecessarily harsh to genuinely wholesome players in a wholesome environment.

ComplexityAddiction: In "Raiding! Classic VS [=BfA=]", the Retail side shows how modern raid bosses in ''World of Warcraft'' are so complicated. The raid leader explains to the newbie in the group the mechanics of the boss they're facing: Occasionally, the boss will mark players and make them take 45-50% of their max HP as damage unless they run into pools of dark energy to dispel the debuff, but gives a new one that kills the player in three minutes. At 70% HP, the boss begins to charge his TotalPartyKill attack. At that point, the player has to write a 250 word essay on why they like him and where they'll take him out on their date, making the boss feel better and cancel the attack. The next stage has different tasks. DPS players have to do three cartwheels and cook a medium rare steak. Afterwards, they have to calculate 459 x 0.43 and divide by the number of dead players in the group. The answer will indicate the amount of time needed to perform the /dance animation. If they get it wrong, five random members of the group die in real life and the player's spine breaks. When the raid leader asks if the newbie got it, the newbie says it's one of the easiest bosses.

** "The Current State of [=WoW=]" perfectly encapsulated many players' feeling after the ''Shadowlands'' 9.1 patch and the Blizzard controversies afterwards that after the announcement of an unwanted yacht prize, a player exclaimed "I'm going to [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyXIV FFXIV!]]" And sure enough, the next video is "[=WoW=] Players Experience FFXIV," and it starts with a (different) player going over to Eorzia and kicking the Activision Blizzard PR guy from his feet, and sobs to the welcoming FFXIV player that his old game has gone to hell and he couldn't take it anymore.

** In "Classic Hardcore in a Nutshell," Derek ignores his partner's advice and picks a fight with a Defias thug with only a staff, only for more mobs to spawn on him. His partner panics and tries his best to heal him since they're going to fail the [[FinalDeathMode Hardcore Challenge]].

* TakeThat: Captain Grim is not above calling out Creator/BlizzardEntertainment when they screwed up big time, though the straw that broke the camel's back was the workplace controversy at 2021 and ''Shadowlands'' 9.1's underdelivering patch, which caused him to release videos like [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X2syg93jfvk The Current State of WoW]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8cMkQRBknto WoW Players Experience FFXIV]] and he has officially jumped ship to ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyXIV''. In both videos, the PR staff of Activision-Blizzard and the desperate sheep defender of ''VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft'' (the Night Elf on copium) are portrayed as very pathetic. And he even inserts a subtle TakeThat to the diehard ''[=WoW=]'' defenders over something else: It doesn't take a Blizzard controversy to spot how they insulted ''FFXIV'' fans to be furries when [[HypocriticalHumor they are doing the same thing with the various full-on bipedal animal races available in Azeroth.]]

** In "Greedy Players in a Nutshell", mixed with a healthy dose of {{Hypocrite}}s, the [[{{Jerkass}} aforementioned greedy warrior]] goes berserk when a paladin player tags an ogre he had barely failed to reach in time. The hypocrisy comes from the fact that the paladin player had earlier been asking him to team up on the quest they were both on to avoid this scenario, and the greedy warrior had either ignored him or blown him off completely. As a result, the paladin decided it wasn't worth trying to work with the warrior, and tried to find his own ogre...only for the warrior to have the gall to actively attack any targets that the ''paladin'' was trying to go for, including the ogre that the paladin ''was'' able to tag, '''just to intentionally ensure that the paladin would get nothing'''. In response, the warrior's behavior only worsens, leading to the HoistByHisOwnPetard moment further below.

* HoistByHisOwnPetard: In a berserk rage, the greedy warrior in "Greedy Players in a Nutshell" starts attacking ''every single ogre within the area'' to prevent the paladin from getting any kills and finish his quest...only for the ogres to overwhelm him and collectively kick his ass, while the paladin and the target ogre that started this antagonism [[PassThePopcorn sit on the sidelines]] to watch as he pleads for help.
