And this changes the argument how? Spontanteity is honesty. If his first, immediate reaction is to blame the developers, not himself for his own mistake, well... read above.
More like a first impression of what happened, and first impressions usually change with some thought.

He's playing on the Hard difficulty setting, right? Can't access LBW on anything but Expert if I'm remembering correctly.

The episodes when Khad is actually making progress and not just moaning and groaning are so much better. Good episode.

It never really changes. That would involve learning, and after a hundred times, the facts should have a foothold but they still don't.

Why is it playing ambient sounds from The Cradle?
I don't remember those in TG...
At 16:05 you can hear the sounds the cradle staff make. I thought I recognized other sounds from the cradle in other areas of this video too.
Edit: Ah, never mind. Wonder why he chose that ambient to use.

He already acknowledged that pretty much everything is his fault and whatever he says is said in the heat of the moment, not thinking about it. Why is this so hard to understand? :confused:

You're missing what's being stated. What he says
outside the game is in conflict with what he says while playing. The perception is that what he's saying while playing is closer to the truth of him--a lack of personal accountability with the inescapable consequence of not learning, not training his mind to acknowledge the game has given him everything he needs,
and more, to get through a given gamespace, and not learning to use the tools given, nor using them according to the broad empowering rules and many unofficial uses. That should not be hard for you to understand, either. I think you do. It sounds too much like you're just defending the guy by highlighting the positive sounding stuff, as opposed to seeing that he's a typical human being who has a stubborn and ingrained and personally stunting bad habit. Or it could be an act that a lot of people don't find amusing after the first several minutes.
I don't have a problem understanding what he says for himself
outside the game,
outside the pressures he amplifies for himself,
outside where he can intellectualize it passively and state he acknowledges what we're saying, or say what he thinks people want him to hear (not in the worst sense, mind you), and make denials of the facts of his perpetually-repeated unevolving finger-pointing that speaks volumes.
If it's an act, it's quite a gift to expend that much of that kind of energy and sustain it, when just being an observer wears people out.

Holy fuck you guys know too much about this game where you can pick out the ambient sounds and know where it came from.
Basically I just went out and found some ambient sounds from a thief level (I think it was cradle) on youtube and used it so that the lack of sound due to FRAPS / Windows wouldn't be so bad.
