YMMV / Stop Skeletons From Fighting

• Adorkable: Derek, especially when he squees over the games he reviews.
  First up, let's get dangerous, with good ol' DW, the KING of Disney cartoon cool!
• Awesome Music: At the beginning of his Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers review he sings the theme song to the show in his own style.
• Broken Base: His Yooka-Laylee review. Either you agree with Derek and feel the game wasn't worth all the hype and that it was seriously undermined, or you feel it's overly pessimistic from someone as usually optimistic as him and that he was letting his own disappointment cloud his judgement and that the game is NOWHERE near as bad as he says. This is also not helped that he played it on the PS4, which was seen as Porting Disaster when it was first released.
• Crosses the Line Twice: "TOP TEN NES BooBS!!" is stupid, juvenile and possibly even offensive, but still hilarious once it gets to the breast cancer part and goes completely off the rails.
• He Panned It, Now He Sucks!: His 2012 review of Eternal Darkness put him in hot water with the game's fanbase, as he ended it saying that he could not recommend the game, which is considered a Cult Classic on the Nintendo GameCube. However, at the end of the review, he encouraged his fans to explain to him what he's missing if he isn't 'getting' it, and that he'll make a follow-up video at the end of the year to address all these comments. True to his word, said video was made. Unfortunately for fans, all their tips and corrections arguably lessened his opinion of the game, as he now viewed the game as going from needlessly frustrating to ridiculously easy. He did come to see enough appeal in it to now recommend the game as entry-level horror alternative to titles such as Silent Hill 2, however.
• Heartwarming in Hindsight: His EarthBound review had Derek bemoaning on how the game may never see a re-release despite vocal fan support for the game due to copyright issues. In 2013, EarthBound was released on the Wii U Virtual Console and became the best-selling game on the service, followed by its predecessor being released in 2015 as EarthBound Beginnings. Derek himself acknowledged in the comment section how his video has gotten old.
• Heartwarming Moments: The first two minutes of his review for EarthBound, all accompanied by the iconic completed melody of the Sound Stone. Also doubles as a Tear Jerker. If you watch this, prepare to have a difficult time holding back tears...
  Derek: EarthBound is not just one of the greatest RPGs of all time. And EarthBound is not just one of the greatest games on the Super Nintendo. EarthBound is quite simply one of the greatest games ever made.
• Hilarious in Hindsight:
  • His Splatterhouse retrospective ends with him begging for a remake. This came true in 2010.
    • Not just that, in the first game retrospective, he starts asking a few questions about how and what happened in the story, in the 2010 game, most of the questions are actually answered.
  • In his review of Wild Guns, he says "What's better than cowboys and Indians? Cowboys and robots, that's what!". Not too far off from that...
  • At the end of his review of the Castlevania Game Boy Trilogy he expressed doubts about the direction Konami was taking the franchise in and proposed that "maybe we don't need Konami", suggesting that perhaps someone could take the series to crowd funding in the same way Mighty No. 9 tried to take the Mega Man series out of Capcom's then-negligent hands, as well as taking the opportunity to replace the series' rather goofy name with something new. It was almost SCARILY prophetic...
• So Bad, It's Good:
  • One of the reasons he likes Mega Man 9 is because of the Retraux cover, amongst other things; he even uses the phrase "So Bad It's Good" when talking about the game.
  • He also used the phrase in his review of Final Fantasy Mystic Quest.
