I wanted to listen to what they guy said, but he sounded so atrociously annoying and biased that I couldn't tell if he was employed by The Onion or not.

That’s deliberate. His character (and real personality to an extent) is that of a smarmy and pompous egomaniac, mocking the game industry and its practices.
You either accept it (because his videos are often full of solid points), or you don’t, because it is extremely one-sided against the industry and any microtransactions (that he loves Warframe is odd, though, but speaks volumes about how he isn’t completely biased against MTX).

I mean, that's great he has good points, but if I can't stand listening to his voice for long enough to hear those points then he has already failed at getting his message across. Apparently he has enough followers that his message gets across well enough.
