Civvie 11 (also known as Civvie's Dungeon) is a YouTube channel focusing on video games. Civvie reviews retro games from the First-Person Shooter genre, modern shooters inspired by retro FPS games, and the occasional film, typically adaptations of the games he's covered. His "Pro" series features humorous overviews of Civvie's experiences playing certain games. In other words, they're a scripted hybrid of a review and Let's Play.Most of the videos in the channel follow a loosely strung narrative where Civvie, or CV-11, is incarcerated in a facility run by the so-called 'Department of Special Corrections', where he is treated very inhumanely, but has access to a computer system and an unseen editor (CV-16, also known as Katie). Intros, outros, and various beats in between the actual game review are usually punctuated by gags about the facility.You can find his channel here.

comment
Cherry Tapping: Upon reaching the end of Shadow Warrior (1997), Civvie decided to try beating the final boss of a highly unforgiving first-person shooter with a massive arsenal of weapons to death with just his bare fists. To his surprise, this turned out to be a pretty effective strategy, as Orochi Zilla's AI has a lot of trouble with hitting targets at point-blank range on the constantly shifting ground of where you fight him.

 Civvie 11 (Web Video) / int_118a2d16
comment
Hanlon's Razor: Downplayed in regards to Shadow Warrior (1997), which features an enemy type whose name is an ethnic slur, perving on anime characters in their early teens, and Lo Wang's... particular speech style. He argues that the programmers of Shadow Warrior were immature dumbasses messing with stuff they didn't research in a period where awareness of Asian sensitivity was rather low, rather than genuinely hateful— it's hard to take a serious message from a game where the main character is a ninja with a nuke launcher. On the other hand, he finds most of Lo Wang's dialogue genuinely cringeworthy and doesn't blame anyone for disliking him and turning his speech off. Acknowledged in his video on Blood, where he claims he doesn't like The Last Jedi, but shuts down Cancer Mouse's attempts to steer the discussion towards politics or agendas by claiming it was just an incompetently-made corporate product, and Disney has no greater agenda than accumulating money.

Madness Mantra: In his Kreed review: "See, a lot of these areas are copied and pasted (whole hallways and rooms) so it gets a little confusing..." He even throws a The Shining gag with that sentence for good measure. It sticks, too. He reuses the same sentence, said in the same tone, whenever the same thing happens in other games from then onwards.

 Civvie 11 (Web Video) / int_144ec68f
comment
Negated Moment of Awesome: In some internet review shows, when a host does battle with the villain they end up acquitting themselves passably or coming off as a Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass. In the closing scenes of his Duke Nukem Forever review, Civvie faces off against the shadow demons while H4MMER goes back to the past. Civvie stays with the intent of going down in a blaze of glory. He doesn't even last a second before he's horrifically devoured off-screen. After all, he's a malnourished and mistreated unarmed man going up against Eldritch Abominations, just because he's the host does not make him an exception.

Early Game Hell
 Civvie 11 (Web Video) / int_1527d90d
comment
Early Game Hell: Insofar as the first level of Doom's fourth episode can be considered such, playing on Hell Beneath on Ultra Violence gave Civvie a really hard time thanks to a cramped layout, dozens of shotgunners, a good few Barons of Hell and barely any healing items. But the grand prize goes to, as Civvie shows, Plutonia Experiment's first level, Congo. There, the player is immediately surrounded by shotgunners at the start, the next room has chaingunners ready to perforate the player, there are Revenants and Mancubi littered about the place and the moment the player fires a shot near the chaingunners in the aforementioned room, it alerts the Arch-Vile. Yeah, as Civvie points out, Plutonia is for experienced Doomers looking for something new, and Congo shows it will start by lighting a fire right under the player's ass. Doom Eternal is also an example of this. As Civvie points out, it's much harder than its predecessor, and until you get some upgrades and get into the flow of the combat it will absolutely wipe the floor with you in harder difficulties. He argues that much of the reason that Daikatana has such a bad reputation is that most of its terrible cramped dark levels and weapons that kill the player more than the enemy are located in the first episode. Past that point, the level design opens up considerably and the weapons become much more generally usable.

Civvie prefaces the section for Phantom Fury in his 3D Realms Vibe Check by completely breaking Kayfabe to explain the difficulties of conveying intent when playing as a character that doesn't want to be hosting the show he's in, to point out how he really doesn't like ragging on games that aren't entertainingly bad, and to make clear that his bile towards the game comes from genuine frustration towards Slipgate Ironworks and the mismangement of 3D Realms.

Surprisingly Improved Sequel
 Civvie 11 (Web Video) / int_1f9e2c21
comment
Surprisingly Improved Sequel: invoked His view on the Duke Nukem Forever DLC "The Doctor Who Cloned Me": he hated the original game top-to-bottom, but thought the DLC was much better. He claims to see DNF as a fundamentally flawed game and therefore "Doctor Who Cloned Me" could only do so much, but believed that the level design, the new weapons, the writing, and especially its treatment of Duke's character had all hiked up substantially when compared to the original. Sadly, this ultimately just made him hate the main game all the more since all the improvements made in The Doctor Who Cloned Me showed Civvie What Could Have Been. While he still didn't consider Redneck Rampage Rides Again to be particularly good, he still found it vastly preferable to the first game, due to having improved level designs, more conveniently placed keys, and some legitimately enjoyable levels.

Chekhov's Gun: In his Duke Nukem Forever vid, Civvie asks everyone to remember Duke's angry "Not my babes! Not in my town!" rant for later. It comes up in the Hive where Duke cruelly jokes to the impregnated, captive Holsom twins that they're "fucked" to highlight how Out of Character the comment is for Duke. At the start of the Rise of the Triad reboot video, AX3 gives Civvie a present, which smells bad but can't be opened until past midnight. It becomes relevant when he gets stuck on the Final Boss, during which Civvie opens the present for the solution: Cheese! invoked

Ascended Fanboy: Is now officially an NPC in Postal 4 and the proud owner of 'Civvie's Crack Shack'. This is in reference to his Self-Imposed Challenge of keeping the Postal Dude high for a week straight while playing Postal 2. invoked Partially stretches into Celebrity Paradox since he also voices a caller named Doug on the talk radio show in the game. The voice of Doug from the call and Civvie at his seedy establishment are the same. Whether or not this is supposed to be a different person is up in the air, though it probably doesn't matter.

Hurl It into the Sun: In the Zortch episode Civvie speculates that this is what you do to Flemoids; while Chex Quest insists that you're merely "Zorching" them back to their home planet, Civvie points out that "you could be teleporting them to the upper atmosphere of their planet for all you know". Complete with a graphic of a Flemoid exploding in the vacuum of outer space.

Vocal Evolution: In his earlier videos, Civvie's voice was a lot deeper. Around the time of the Pro Postal series, his pitch began to gradually lighten, eventually reaching his more recognizable cadence around Apocalypse Weekend and Paradise Lost. In canon, Civvie figures it's a result of H4MMER choking him a little while he sleeps as revenge for hitting him down the stairs.

Arch-Enemy: Capstone Software, for putting out nothing but terrible games. Often followed by Civvie sarcastically saying their tagline, "The Pinnacle of Entertainment Software", every time he mentions their name or some variation including "The Pinnacle of..." followed by a joke or major flaw common in their games. Randy Pitchford, after Gearbox Software released Aliens: Colonial Marines and it was found out that they were moving funds from that game over to Borderlands 2, alongside the former's notorious false advertising, buggy mess of a release, and poorly written story. Other grievances include the entirety of Duke Nukem Forever, some mixed-bag quality levels in older Duke games, and generally being the living embodiment of grease.

Dancing Bear:invoked He takes this view of Hexen, noting that the main appeal to the game is its extreme level of technical sophistication for a game released on the same engine as the original Doom, with things like horizontally-moving sectors, parallax scrolling, and a class system, while the actual "game" part is a slog. He brings this up with Chasm: The Rift, noting that while the game is a rather good shooter on its own merits, the real intrigue to it is that it manages to pull off Quake-level visuals despite running in a 2.5D engine—to the point that the only way to tell it's not true 3D is to realize that all the levels are suspiciously lacking in verticality.

 Civvie 11 (Web Video) / int_33f067ea
comment
So Okay, It's Average: invokedHis opinion of both the story campaigns of the sequels to Quake—while he acknowledges their technical competence and decent level design, he also finds both games rather boring and uninspired, noting their lack of interesting setpieces and showing noticeable distaste at the change to pure science fiction as opposed to the first game's Lovecraft Lite atmosphere. When talking about Quake II, he states that it's not groundbreaking and the quality is homogenous, with no high or low points, but it's still a perfectly serviceable shooter; when covering Quake IV, he is in utter bafflement that the game's director wanted to revisit the Strogg storyline instead of the much more celebrated eldritch atmosphere of Quake.

Body Horror
 Civvie 11 (Web Video) / int_504a1991
comment
Body Horror: A lot of the show's comedy stems from Civvie making a bad pun or angering his guards and being punished for it. There are copious references to 'the cold room', being flayed for the duration of an ad spot, and electric shocks. It would be gruesome if Civvie never really reacted beyond the immediate moment of pain or if the violence was shown on-screen. During his review of Blood II: The Chosen's expansion pack, The Nightmare Levels, his ability to use his patented Gordon Ramsay quotes is replaced by two buttons. AX3 assures him that one of the buttons will play one of the clips. When Civvie presses one of them, a gunshot is heard. Civvie screams in pain and begins to react in shock. The show then cuts out for what an intermission card says to be six months with a newfound unwillingness to press the button.

Sincerity Mode: During 3D Realms Vibe Check, he takes a minute to actually turn off the schtick for the video to the point of showing a little bit of how his virtual set in the Unreal Engine works, and to both thank his viewers for allowing him to continue making the show as a full-time job, but also make it clear that if he is going to make a video about a bad game, it needs to not just be bad, but entertainingly bad, and he REALLY doesn't want to make videos trashing indie developers for any reason unless they absolutely deserve it. It also sets up why he goes so hard in on Slipgate Ironworks and their influence on 3D Realms; their shovelware approach to game development could, in his opinion, potentially invokedkill 3D Realms for their bad practices a second time, and he cannot abide by that.

Cursed Item: His upgraded computer for Doom Eternal has a number of absurd upgrades: including an experimental cooling system designed for fusion reactors, a processor tied to the power supply with strands of John Romero's hair (for some reason), a 320GB vRAM video card, and a Runic stone from the Ruins of Sala'Kan'Tar. Something inside it has caused it to start bleeding. By his video on Postal 4, the PC appears to have generated a form of sentience, though so long as it stays away from Civvie's bed and toilet, he doesn't really care. It all comes to a head during the Daikatana video, where the computer sprouts wings and declares its intent to destroy humanity only to be taken over by the spirit of John Romero, who promises to bring humanity instead into a glorious future free of want and suffering... until AX3 neutralizes it with a flamethrower and locks the computer away on another floor alongside other evils that have given Civvie grief in the past such as Steamboat Wendigo and Tekwar.

Jesus Was Way Cool: Jesus in "Christmas Grabbag 2" is depicted as a fellow inmate, speaking like a Totally Radical surfer-dude, hoverboarding on a crucifix, and giving Civvie a Christmas game (albeit a pretty bad one). His dad says he can't do an exorcism until he gets his GED.

We Really Do Care: Shortly after Blood's remaster, Fresh Supply came out, Civvie quickly reviewed it and lashed the remaster for its lack of polish. When the game updated to fix many of the stated issues, Civvie uploaded another video showing how grateful he was that the people behind the project really cared.

Author Appeal: Civvie's very fond of sprinkling music tracks from Rise of the Triad throughout his episodes whenever it fits the situation or suits the clip. It's to the point he also uses two tracks ("Here Boy" and "How'd I Do?") as his intro and outro themes. When he actually gets to the game in question he details why. Also to Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, referencing it as the musical gold standard met by the aforementioned, using "Final Toccata" during his breakdown of Hexen's cryptic Seven Portals, listing the steps needed to enter the Inverted Castle as a joke about Cruelty Squad's secrets, and mentioning the Clock Tower segments present throughout the series in American McGee's Alice.

When griping about Return to Castle Wolfenstein's forced stealth sequence, which was something of a period trend for gaming in the early 2000s, Civvie growls "Which was the fucking style at the time", simultaneously shouting out to The Simpsons (including a clip of Grampa Simpson saying the line) and content creator Matt McMuscles (whose series Wha Happun uses the same quote as a Running Gag, and which Civvie has guest-starred on before).

When discussing Chex Quest, Civvie at one point describes that he's "spooning these Flemoids". He means that he's using a spoon to zortch them, then promptly realizes that it doesn't sound right to say that — accompanied with a photo of a woman affectionately cradling a dakimakura with an image of a kissing Flemoidus Commonus on it.

Oddly Small Organization: The Department of Special Corrections is a massive underground United States-funded prison complex with hundreds of prisoners within its walls, wardens to manage all these homicidal prisoners, other staff for stuff like cooking Nutraloaf, and even a vault where they keep all the cursed objects from throughout the show. You can count the number of main characters with a single hand, and you won't need many more if you also include those with one-off or scattered appearances.

Hostility on the Set: In-Universe, Civvie hates his producers/wardens AX3 and H4MM3R, who in turn inflict a variety of tortures onto him like electrocution, "ocular perforation", and playing awful games. This is also Civvie's relationship with video editor Katie as the show has gone on, with the two actively digging at each other into the video, like Civvie forcing Katie to watch Kitchen Nightmares to capture Gordon Ramsey clips, or Katie tricking Civvie into quoting Monty Python and getting him tortured for it.

Character Shilling

comment
Character Shilling: One of his critiques of Duke Nukem Forever is that the vast majority of characters have their only interactions with Duke being to talk about how awesome he is, barring a single Straw Character—he notes that, when combined with the game's general mediocrity, it results in the game feeling smugly full of itself in an undeserved way. One compliment he gave "The Doctor Who Cloned Me" is that its characters had a much broader spectrum of reactions to Duke (like Doctor Proton regularly appearing to smack-talk Duke or Dr Valencia being a Ms. Fanservice who doesn't immediately want into his pants), and the DLC as a whole was more willing to make Duke the butt of the joke.

Challenge Run: Civvie has been known to dabble in these for certain games. By far his most well known and memetic one was in the "Pro Postal" series, where he made it his mission to complete the entire game while under the effects of a Health Pipe. For "Pro Doom", since he knew the game inside and out after playing it for years, he sets a series of guidelines for the videos, such as no mouse look, no saving (meaning dying would send him to the start of the level with only the pistol), and drinking an expired can of Monster Energy after clearing an episode.

Partially stretches into Celebrity Paradox since he also voices a caller named Doug on the talk radio show in the game. The voice of Doug from the call and Civvie at his seedy establishment are the same. Whether or not this is supposed to be a different person is up in the air, though it probably doesn't matter.

Freak Out
 Civvie 11 (Web Video) / int_7fbe9a30
comment
Freak Out: Happens occasionally when he finds a glitch or some other issue so bad, so blatant, that words fail him. For example, in his Hunt Down the Freeman video when he finds out the path he's supposed to take is blocked by an invisible wall, or in the second part of his Blood II: The Chosen series when he finally acquires the Napalm Launcher (one of the most devastating weapons in the first game) only to see it has been nerfed to oblivion. Expect a cavalcade of edited Gordon Ramsay shouting and swearing whenever this happens. The video on the Postal 2 Game Mod Eternal Damnation has Civvie suffering one bad enough to require medication, after a sequence of events that involve a Crappy Carnival, a fully naked Succubus, a train crash, a sewer level, various game glitches, and Jigsaw Gary Coleman attacking him with a Chainsaw. Another one briefly occurs in Duke Nukem Forever after he witnesses the infamous "Looks like you're... fucked." scene. Not long after Duke ranted about how the aliens are gonna pay for stealing the girls again. After losing his shit over a detail in Unreal 2 previously, the footage cuts to footage taken at a later date with a note that he was abruptly sedated. After something he finds even more mind-bogglingly awful to deal with comes up, the same thing happens, with the note that he volunteered for the sedation this time. Has a couple in his Postal 4 video, one when he discovers that he is the drug dealer in town, and another when he comes across the Sewer Count graffiti in the sewers, with its' count matching his own.

Actually Pretty Funny: While he utterly panned Bad Day L.A., he admitted the gag where you walk into a burning building to save a guy's girlfriend only to find a blow-up doll to be pretty good. Hearing a self-deprecating joke in the DLC "The Doctor Who Cloned Me" for Duke Nukem Forever has him speechless. He also gave credit for Redneck Rampage Rides Again for a gag where Bubba robs Elvis' grave and steals his outfit, resulting in the crowbar equivalent of a Dope Slap by Leonard. He doesn't find Postal 2's satire really that funny, but a bit in Paradise Lost where you can interrupt Krotchy giving a lengthy exposition dump by shooting him, which barely phases him beyond annoying him that you're skipping it, made him bust a gut.

Eldritch Abomination
 Civvie 11 (Web Video) / int_8774fb47
comment
Eldritch Abomination: The demon spawned from the stone of Sala'Kan'Tar that possessed Civvie's computer is this. Its mere presence alone began to infect Civvie's room with some sort of unidentifiable flesh muck. By the Daikatana episode, it absorbed enough of the game's power to take form and menace humanity... only to be nullified by the latent good spirit of John Romero hidden in the strands of hair Civvie somehow had. And then it gets neutralized by AX3's flamethrower. The Steamboat Wendigo is a part-flesh part-mechanical all demonic nightmare with the head of Mickey Mouse, and a stomach containing the tortured souls of all the properties Disney has bought. It appears briefly in the Dark Forces review where Katie's use of a MIDI version of the Star Wars theme briefly rouses its attention before Civvie implores her to stop. As of Daikatana it has been subdued and contained in a sub-basement level along with the aforementioned possessed PC and William Shatner's Tekwar. During the Evil Dead: Regeneration video, something has started to affect the DSC. Whatever it is, it's clearly not good, and the only way to stave off its effects is a complicated ritual involving red candles and blood (preferably human).

Capitalism Is Bad: A recurring theme when Civvie details the history/future of a game studio who made whichever game he's playing for a video is that capitalism ends up ruining them, usually via being bought and absorbed into a larger company to make games that Civvie likes a lot less than what they made previously. This gets lampshaded in the Chex Quest episode, in which he offhandedly mentions that the second episode of Chex Quest was Christmas Rushedinvoked and that the brand was sold off later that same year.

Self-Imposed Challenge: invoked Some of his Pro Series videos include this, such as Civvie's attempt to maintain his crack addiction in Postal 2, going through all of Doom without saving (dropped when he got to Episode 4) or his attempt to spare all the babes in the first and third episodes of Duke Nukem 3D (this last one was stymied heavily by a particular room that placed one right in the firing line of two Battlelords).

Apocalypse How: According to what Civvie says, the world above might be a wasteland. It's never explained how the world died, or even why he's still incarcerated. Thanks to some Lampshading on Civvie's part, he notes the fact he has far too many subscribers for the world to actually be over. Don't think too hard about how he can still react to incoming news like the failed launch of Fallout 76 in his Terminator: Future Shock review.

Set Right What Once Went Wrong: H4MMER attempts to send his son back in time to prevent a cataclysmic disaster at the hands of Civvie's Uncle Frank. However, because said son looks and talks like a skinless T-800, he is summarily blasted to pieces by the past H4MMER. After the cataclysmic event happens and Civvie points out how stupid it is to send a freaky skeleton-esque Terminator into the past in the middle of a government facility, H4MMER proceeds to send himself back instead to get enough of an awkward pause in the action to explain things.

Black Blood: The Hatred episode sees Katie editing the footage to hue shift all red things (which includes the copious amounts of blood) to the advertiser-friendly green. Inverted for laughs in the Chex Quest episode: for a gag, Civvie tells Katie to edit the footage so that the Flemoids — normally an innocuous green slime color — are turned bright red, then into a darker, bloodier shade of red.

Shotguns Are Just Better: Civvie believes this firmly and indubitably, to the point that he claims in one video that a bad game can sometimes be saved by a good shotgun. When Doom 3 makes the mistake of averting this, he reads it the riot act. Redneck Rampage got it even worse, to the point that he even did a Call-Back to the Doom 3 one.

Foreshadowing: Early in Petty Thief #3, Civvie outlines that he has a very specific fear of turning a corner and encountering a "weird metal baby", which might seem like a weirdly unique thing to be afraid of to non-Thief fans. Six Thief episodes later, at the end of Petty Thief: The Metal Age #4, Civvie encounters the Mechanical Cherub, which is exactly a weird metal baby, and gets freaked out by it.

Continuity Nod: In his review of TNT: Evilution, Civvie rhetorically describes something he refers to as "goldilocksing", ie. visiting someone else's family reunion and having sex with every woman there to see who would be "just right" in bed. Goldilocksing gets referenced again in the Strife episode, in which he says that "the goldilocksing thing was only half-true"; but what elements of what Civvie described are true and what's fake is left up to interpretation.

The demon spawned from the stone of Sala'Kan'Tar that possessed Civvie's computer is this. Its mere presence alone began to infect Civvie's room with some sort of unidentifiable flesh muck. By the Daikatana episode, it absorbed enough of the game's power to take form and menace humanity... only to be nullified by the latent good spirit of John Romero hidden in the strands of hair Civvie somehow had. And then it gets neutralized by AX3's flamethrower.

Overly Long Gag: As part of his intro to Hexen II's expansion pack, Civvie shows the pack's intro cutscene, but with a bunch of characters that weren't actually part of it added in. The end of the video for Slayers X: Terminal Aftermath: Vengance of the Slayer has Civvie ask a long, drawn-out barrage of questions about the Slayers X setting. He doesn't even let the credits music cut him off, and it lasts a good full minute in total.

Worth It: Civvie takes a cue from a narrative device from Starship Titanic, the ability to adjust the robot's behaviour to make them more compliant, as an excuse to beat up H4MMER for a bit. He knows he's going to pay for it but it felt good, and sure enough, damaging government property ends up being the excuse to keep him imprisoned in a later episode.

Insofar as the first level of Doom's fourth episode can be considered such, playing on Hell Beneath on Ultra Violence gave Civvie a really hard time thanks to a cramped layout, dozens of shotgunners, a good few Barons of Hell and barely any healing items. But the grand prize goes to, as Civvie shows, Plutonia Experiment's first level, Congo. There, the player is immediately surrounded by shotgunners at the start, the next room has chaingunners ready to perforate the player, there are Revenants and Mancubi littered about the place and the moment the player fires a shot near the chaingunners in the aforementioned room, it alerts the Arch-Vile. Yeah, as Civvie points out, Plutonia is for experienced Doomers looking for something new, and Congo shows it will start by lighting a fire right under the player's ass.

Everyone Has Standards
 Civvie 11 (Web Video) / int_b4a6ae4c
comment
Everyone Has Standards: While it's unclear whether or not Civvie has committed any serious crimes (even if he mentioned he committed homicide in his Blood 2 video), he openly objects to violence against children in his Shogo: Mobile Armor Division review. He also has a soft spot for dogs as shown in his Postal reviews and dislikes seeing them hurt. He's genuinely disturbed by the entire Hive section of Duke Nukem Forever. Especially at Duke's nonchalant response to the whole thing. To a lesser degree, he seems a bit put off by the treatment of the women in 3D, finding it rather creepy and out-of-place (though not nearly as explicitly bad as it'd get in Forever). He also notes some irritation at the fact that the level designers had an odd habit of putting captured women in places where they're almost guaranteed to die horribly, such as next to explosives or in front of enemies with rapid-fire ranged attacks. H4MM3R gets a moment of this in the introduction to the Rise of the Triad 2013 reboot video; Civvie's offhand comment that he doesn't mind a Toys For Tots child dying for the sake of him receiving a Christmas present provokes a blunt response of "what the fuck, Civvie?". Civvie retorts that H4MM3R has Civvie's brain, basically, so he was likely thinking the same thing.

Take That!
 Civvie 11 (Web Video) / int_b53077b3
comment
Take That!: Cancer Mouse is essentially one towards content creators with alt-right talking points. Civvie has tossed out jabs at Valve Software and Half-Life, comparing their effects to Nazi Germany in how Half-Life effectively wiped out the Doom and Duke Nukem style of shooters in favour of narrative-driven, linear experiences. A Freeze-Frame Bonus in the first Pro Blood video shows he actually considers Half-Life his third favorite shooter, right under Blood itself. His full video on Half-Life, though, is much more positive, and he goes so far as to compare it to Citizen Kane in terms of how impossible it is for people today to recognize how innovative it was in its time. He clarifies more precisely that while Half-Life did deal a serious blow to "boomer shooters", this was largely due to lesser developers taking the wrong lessons (for example, the harsh linearity of Half-Life was an actual major theme of the story, not just laziness).invoked Civvie also had a few words towards Joe Lieberman in his Postal Redux video. Not only is his video mocking the trailer for Slenderman obviously an extended one, calling it a step in "Hollywood's never-ending race to the bottom", but when explaining that Slenderman isn't scary anymore, he shows off a number of Slenderman-esque characters to show how frequently the concept has been ripped off... and includes Max Landis among them. He's taken several pot-shots at Channel Awesome, particularly in his Terminator: Future Shock Review and Pro Blood. In his Nightmare Reaper video, he snarks on Iron Maiden and their lawyers for the Ion Fury lawsuit. In the same video, he takes a shot at Anti-SJW-type gamers. He also had a small one against fellow reviewer GManLives and his glowing review of the Updated Re-release of Blood in spite of some early bugs. Otherwise, Civvie considers him "a scholar and a gentleman." In his Terminator: Resistance review, he takes a shot at Angry Joe for raging at such a trivial detail as the laser colors. His Terminator: Future Shock/Skynet video has him tell H4MM3R's weirdly animated intrusive T-800 future son to "go back to whatever Channel Awesome production [he] came from." In the end of his Doom (2016) video, he wonders if in the brainstorming sessions for Doom Eternal the devs decided against naming it "Doom Forever" because Duke Nukem Forever sullied that subtitle. Unsurprisingly, Tekwar sees a lot of these directed at William Shatner. In particular, Civvie notes that he's been "acting [his] age" on Twitter. His Patreon contains a joke goal for the production of "The Civvie Movie" if he reaches $100,000 a month, an obvious pot-shot at the infamous The Spoony Experiment movie that was never produced despite being promised as a goal for Spoony's Patreon. Randy Pitchford is a recurring punching bag of the show, thanks to his questionable handling of the Duke Nukem IP and outright lies during the development and promotion of Aliens: Colonial Marines. In the Zortch episode, there's a moment where Civvie asks the viewer to vote whether they eat hot dogs lengthwise or widthwise via their Ouya controllers. All five of the votes are in favor of eating them wide, which convinces Civvie that people who watch the show on an Ouya are disgusting.

Overused Running Gag
 Civvie 11 (Web Video) / int_b999f0a4
comment
Overused Running Gag: In-universe Civvie is forbidden from using Gordon Ramsey's "It's fucking raw" clip after invokedpeppering it all over his review of Blood II. Daring to do so anyway results in immediate punishment, usually electrocution. Similar bans are in place for Monty Python references and bad puns. In-character, Civvie himself hates the Sewer Count running gag. If whatever game he's playing Shoutouts Civvie's Dungeon by referencing the Sewer Count, he's not going to be happy about it, and depending on how he feels, Sewer Count references will incur additional points to the Sewer Count.

Berserk Button: Sewer levels, due to their boring visuals, restricted gameplay and confusing layouts. Given that sewers were pervasive in shooter games of the 1990s, he runs into a lot of them. While he never goes into the screaming fits you might expect from this trope, he makes his opinion clear by greeting them with a tone of disgust and keeping a running tally of the number of sewer levels encountered throughout the series... which is thrown off after the Dark Forces video, in which he finds its sewer level to be so awful that he adds a whole ninety-two counts to the total. This comes to a head when he plays Redneck Rampage and finds its sewer level so horrid that he increases the counter to 9999999, declaring it to be the very worst sewer level in history and possibly one of the single worst levels in any FPS. To a lesser extent, averting Shotguns Are Just Better in First-Person Shooters will really piss him off. He will dedicate entire sections in his video explaining why a game's shotgun is godawful if it's especially bad, as Doom³ and Redneck Rampage would show.

Mind Screw: At the end of the Geist review, H4MMER claims that the subplot regarding Civvie being possessed by a Demon from the Evil Dead Regeneration review to the Hexen review was actually an alternate timeline all along...despite the fact that those episodes happened after the timeline reset in the Duke Nukem Forever video, and that Civvie actually brought the whole plotline up back in the Unreal review. Civvie, naturally, is completely confused by this, but H4MMER retorts that he's in no position to question it considering he had half his brain removed.

Cool and Unusual Punishment: Civvie gets buried alive under a mass of rejected blank collectible vinyls (which are most definitely not Funko Pops) in the Hexen episode. After a failed attempt to blow up the DOSC's nutraloaf factory in the UnrealI episode, Civvie gets sent to "the Clown Room" as punishment. Here, he's isolated while he tries to work on his next videos, at least until the AI called Clown starts intruding on the script and subjecting him to TikTok-esque shenanigans.

Censored for Comedy: As part of a Take That! to algorithms that suppress bad language, his TNT: Evilution shorts not only feature censorship of swears (and very inconsistently, at that) but also common words like "pain." This comes to a head during his evaluation of "Ballistyx", in which his dialogue is very, very vulgar — describing visiting someone else's family reunion to have sex with all the women there — which is contrasted against Civvie having to refer to their genitalia as "mommy boxes".

Shout-Out
 Civvie 11 (Web Video) / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: Civvie has a habit of spouting out pop-culture references. During the Doom 64 video, while reading the intermission text for 'Even Simpler', he segues into one of the lines from Rorschach's journal before cutting back and noting how much edgier Doomguy has become. At one point in his Doom Eternal video, Civvie notes how the purple slime occasionally found throughout the game only slows you down, and doesn't do anything cool like animate the Statue of Liberty. During his Half-Life review, Civvie momentarily gets teleported into an episode of Ross's Game Dungeon, and earlier throws in a reference to Ross's most popular series. Also in the Half-Life review, Civvie reminisces about how one of the models for the scientists was referred to by fans as "Einstein" before Half-Life but the AI is Self-Aware gave it the name "Dr. Coomer". Later on, he also mocks a HECU soldier with a familiar phrase from the series. The review of Daikatana is subtitled "The Great Green Dragon" and quotes Francis Dolarhyde's "great becoming" speech. Civvie quotes the novel again when describing the Nintendo 64 controller, lampshading the Thomas Harris reference. When rattling through conspiracy theories over the end credits of his Varginha Incident review, the last sentence he gets out before being taken down by security is, "Do you run out of Kleenex, paper towels, and toilet paper at the same time?" With Nosferatu: The Wrath of Malachi he comments on the odd off-tempo footstep sounds that "at least we won't attract the worm". During Cruelty Squad when it turns out hitmen were sent to the player character's apartment due to a clerical error, Civvie says it was because because the form had the name "Tuttle" instead of "Buttle". Civvie initially refers to Lucy from Beyond Sunset as "Jane Sunset." When griping about Return to Castle Wolfenstein's forced stealth sequence, which was something of a period trend for gaming in the early 2000s, Civvie growls "Which was the fucking style at the time", simultaneously shouting out to The Simpsons (including a clip of Grampa Simpson saying the line) and content creator Matt McMuscles (whose series Wha Happun uses the same quote as a Running Gag, and which Civvie has guest-starred on before). Civvie's unwanted Rodent Cellmate Cancer Mouse seems to be a subtle reference to the unkillable (but beloved) Mr. Jingles from The Green Mile. The intro to Soldier of Fortune has Civvie go on a brief tangent about other potential adaptations from magazines into video games, in the process showing a magazine featuring the house from My House. He consults Tobin's Spirit Guide about the poltergeists in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. and then again about the Spectres in Strife. Civvie references This Very Wiki in the Strife episode, in which he guesses that the Loremaster boss is "the nerd who runs TV Tropes". (It's true, but supposed to be kept a secret.)

Video Game Caring Potential
 Civvie 11 (Web Video) / int_c9861848
comment
Video Game Caring Potential: It's rare but when the game presents a moral and kind option he may or may not take it, it usually depends on the context. Here are some examples: During his review of Hedon and reaching a point where he has to poison a Warg just to gain access to the room it was guarding, has him mostly silent but what (presumably) forces him to try and look for another way was a Minotaur Guard giving her a judging stare. Which involves him doing a bunch of other errands and exploring the entire hub map to find a potion that puts the Warg to sleep instead. Nearing the end of his third review of Nightmare Reaper, he is given the choice of either sacrificing the player character so that the girl's innocence can be reclaimed or take over the psyche (which is a bad idea considering the player character is a rather homicidal bloodthirsty maniac). While he bemoans it, he ultimately takes the former option.

Lame Pun Reaction
 Civvie 11 (Web Video) / int_cb0743c0
comment
Lame Pun Reaction: AX3 usually tolerates Civvie's humor, but has a strict limit on puns. If Civvie makes a particularly horrible pun, expect AX3 to vocalize the following phrase before firing up the 'nodes. It's also worth noting how AX3 often sounds irritated when saying said line. In the Alpha Prime video, Civvie wields a hammer while activating Bullet Time and promptly cracks a "hammer time" pun. AX3 shocks him, as usual, but Civvie then proceeds to also cue H4MM3R into the joke. H4MM3R verbally tears Civvie a new one, as he (implicitly) breaks one of Civvie's bones with a hammer. The lamest pun reaction yet comes in the Soldier of Fortune video. While reviewing the game's history, Civvie notes that the main voice actor is named "Todd Susman. Todd. Susman." Less than 10 seconds later, his noticing that the game isn't on Steam, only on GOG.com leads to a pun that it's "a bit Todd Susman if you ask me". AX3 considers this a level 10 actionable pun, the most severe so far at the video's release, and for this Civvie is immediately sent to the Clown room. Because the first time the Clown Room was used was when Civvie tried to nuke the DOSC Nutraloaf factory, this implicitly means that AX3 considers bad Among Us jokes to be as bad as nuclear mass homicide. By the Wolfenstein (2009) review, the pun detection system has been upgraded to an implant put onto Civvie's arm by AX3, who's seen working on the implant mid-video. Civvie, after beating the Farm level, naturally makes a pun about the Nazis "buying the farm." Cue the implant shocking him and AX3 declaring the system a success.

Damned by Faint Praise: In Civvie's Redneck Rampage review, he calls Redneck Rampage Rides Again the best sequel to a Build engine shooter, with the competition being Blood II: The Chosen and Duke Nukem Forever. When giving his history of the remake of Rise of the Triad, he goes on a small tangent to note that the owners of the Duke Nukem franchise went out of their way to shut down any links between their franchise and the game that ultimately became the original Bombshell. During his video on Terrawars: NY Invasion, he at one point proclaims, with shock and disgust, that the game's sewer level is by far the best one in the game. He elaborates that while it does use all the classic annoying sewer level design tropes, those tropes come off as a breath of fresh air in a game where most of the levels are barely designed at all.

That Came Out Wrong: Civvie's description of a Revenant assault in Pro Doom II takes a wrong turn after he begins describing the tight situation. In his Pro Nukem: Shrapnel City video, he enters what he thinks is an abortion clinic: When discussing Chex Quest, Civvie at one point describes that he's "spooning these Flemoids". He means that he's using a spoon to zortch them, then promptly realizes that it doesn't sound right to say that — accompanied with a photo of a woman affectionately cradling a dakimakura with an image of a kissing Flemoidus Commonus on it.

Screw This, I'm Outta Here
 Civvie 11 (Web Video) / int_d9cf40fa
comment
Screw This, I'm Outta Here: Civvie references this trope during Pro Plutonia Experiment where he refers to "Nope rooms," i.e. rooms where the player will open them up, see a completely unreasonable number of demons on the other side with no gain from fighting them, immediately shout "Nope!" and turn right back around. While most Doom wads have rooms with a large number of demons, Plutonia Experiment pulls not a single punch in this regard.

Celebrity Cameo: Gianni Matragrano shows up As Himself in the videos for The Fortress Of Dr Radiaki and Nightmare Reaper (beyond voicing the doctor in the latter). He also puts on a Steve Blum voice in the Quake IV video (not of his own volition, mind), with AX3 implying that he's also a prisoner in the Department of Special Corrections facilities.

In the Zortch episode, there's a moment where Civvie asks the viewer to vote whether they eat hot dogs lengthwise or widthwise via their Ouya controllers. All five of the votes are in favor of eating them wide, which convinces Civvie that people who watch the show on an Ouya are disgusting.

In the current universe (don't ask about the continuity, nobody cares) Civvie claims that he DID review Brutal Doom. The brief flashback shows that he thoroughly enjoyed it, a direct contrast from his earlier opinions (for the sake of the joke, obviously). However, the flashback shows him playing not Brutal Doom but a mod by the name of Trailblazer.

comment
Fake Difficulty: His main reason for disliking TNT: Evilution: he believes that the expansion as a whole doesn't understand how to properly use the game's enemy roster, in favor of simply scattering low-tier enemies en masse throughout very large levels. Rather than making the game challenging, he argues that this makes the game a monotonous form of hard, as most of these enemies force the player to take damage but at the same time don't provoke any strategy beyond "shoot the hordes of hitscanners".

Suspiciously Specific Denial: In his video on First Encounter Assault Recon, Civvie dedicates an extended rant to how much he hates Norton Mapes, an engineer who is depicted as a Fat Slob, a Dirty Coward, and a traitor. Katie then sets up a series of footnotes proclaiming that Civvie doesn't hate Norton Mapes because he's been told that he looks like him, that he looks totally different from Norton Mapes, and that he hates being compared to Norton Mapes and gets angry every time someone do it, so you should never do it.

O.O.C. Is Serious Business: He punctuates his disappointment in Blood: Fresh Supply's original release by refraining from using the Gordon Ramsey "It's fucking raw" clip that he usually uses for jank or bugs. Civvie prefaces the section for Phantom Fury in his 3D Realms Vibe Check by completely breaking Kayfabe to explain the difficulties of conveying intent when playing as a character that doesn't want to be hosting the show he's in, to point out how he really doesn't like ragging on games that aren't entertainingly bad, and to make clear that his bile towards the game comes from genuine frustration towards Slipgate Ironworks and the mismangement of 3D Realms.

He gets exactly what he wants: enter stage right, the dildocopter, a flying assistant that doesn't have a human skull attached. Civvie proclaims his hatred of everyone upon seeing the thing.

April Fools' Day: On the 1st of April 2019, Civvie uploaded a "Pro Brutal Doom" video... which turned out to be a review of Wario Land for the Virtual Boy. In the current universe (don't ask about the continuity, nobody cares) Civvie claims that he DID review Brutal Doom. The brief flashback shows that he thoroughly enjoyed it, a direct contrast from his earlier opinions (for the sake of the joke, obviously). However, the flashback shows him playing not Brutal Doom but a mod by the name of Trailblazer. For 2021, he reviews an NES bootleg cartridge by Color Dreams based on the Hellraiser franchise. It's a fake game, but jankily put together to seem like an example of The Problem with Licensed Games. invoked For 2023, Civvie finally decides to review TNT: Evilution... In the Style of TikTok videos (and uploaded to YouTube Shorts), dragging it out by reviewing one level a day.

Groin Attack: In addition to most other electrical body-based forms of torture, Civvie apparently has nodes in his testes too. AX3 and H4MM3R use these in the video for X-Men: The Ravages of Apocalypse, when Civvie refuses to keep playing due to a bug in the source port he uses despawning a plot-critical weapon piece, then taking the ones he had away when he dies and reloads to try to get it to spawn.

One-Steve Limit: In his Hunt Down the Freeman review, he says that Gordon Ramsay (see Running Gag) is the only Gordon we'll see in that video since Gordon Freeman is nowhere to be found in that game. Subverted when Civvie later finds out that one of the alternate endings has not one, but seven Gordon Freemans. In the Slayers X: Terminal Aftermath: Vengance of the Slayer review, he happens to see a billboard for "Uncle Frank's Big Dump". As it so happens, Civvie's uncle happens to be named Frank, and the billboard's appearance is enough to summon his power (even if they're not the same character).

Video Game Cruelty Potential: Absolutely adores this trope, being a fan of the Postal series and all that. If the game will allow him to be a dick or a menace to anyone (innocent or not) then he'll be willing to try out the option. Although he has his limits. In "Pro Doom 3", he makes it a point to kill any friendly NPC he comes across if he can. As he points out, the Marine is canonically the Sole Survivor of the demonic invasion, so he might as well cut out the middleman.

Running Gag
 Civvie 11 (Web Video) / int_f9f2c33
comment
Running Gag: The Sewer Level counter, which increases for each one Civvie comes across. Though it isn't exactly linear, with exceptionally bad levels (and on rare occasions, levels that stand out as more sewer even if they aren't necessarily bad by sewer level standards, such as Hrot's sewage treatment plant) adding more to the counter. The counter breaks after the abysmal sewer level in Redneck Rampage and briefly disappeared...until "Realms Deep Roundup", when Civvie notices a "Does this sewer count?" graffiti tag during the sewer level from White Hell, which causes it to rise from its grave. There exist other counters for various other recurring things that happen on the show: The amount of nuclear warheads he has fired in games. This practice started with his playthrough of the original Shadow Warrior, hence why the counter is accompanied by a Lo Wang voice clip whenever it makes an appearance. An additional counter, introduced in his Dark Forces review is the "Stupid Star Wars Names" which is for exactly that: Star Wars names he finds to be just plain silly. Pic from Jedi Knight raises it once on his own, but then it shoots up by five when Civvie reveals the guy's full name is Picaroon C. Boodle, and that his species is "Kowakian monkey-lizard." If Gianni Matragrano makes an appearance, that'll increment the uncommonly-seen "Gianni Counter". Clips of Gordon Ramsay shouting "It's fucking raw!" from Hell's Kitchen, for the times he comes across a glitch or bug that could have easily been fixed if the game got a few more months of development time. Used heavily in his Blood II: The Chosen and Hunt Down the Freeman reviews. Whenever a really awkwardly-done model comes around, it's met with a clip of Beetlejuice shouting "Nice fuckin' model!" and honking his crotch, sometimes skipping right to the honking. Taken up to eleven in his Duke Nukem Forever review - when he shows the awfulness of Duke's jumping animation, it then goes into the beginning of White Zombie's "More Human Than Human," with the honks timed to the music itself. Whenever Civvie takes a cheap shot at someone, like William Shatner in his TekWar review, or John Romero, a little Steam Achievement-looking icon pops up in the bottom right corner with the person he's talking about with the title "Cheap Shot". When Civvie mentions John Carmack, he refers to Carmack by such titles as "sentient galaxy brain meme," "hyper-advanced artificial intelligence," "death-frightening psion capable of seeing through the illusionary world before our eyes", "benevolent architect of the post-singularity simulation", " Time displaced neural net processor covered in what the top military scientists in the 1960s could pass for human tissue", "Earth-stranded Nihilanth", "monolith constructor", and "juvenile delinquent."note This is accompanied by a true story of how Carmack broke into a school using thermite to steal computers at 14 years old. Similarly in videos whenever Randy Pitchford is brought up, Civvie will mention that he is greasy. The Pro Nukem 3D - Alien World Order video has him rapid-fire a bunch of Randy grease jokes when the developers of the game mention being able to say anything about him and get away with it. Speaking of Randy, anytime Civvie utters the phrase "badass," an image from one of Randy Pitchford's tweets of him wearing sunglasses that say "BAD ASS" on them flashes on-screen. Also, any time something happens in Aliens: Colonial Marines that's so blatantly buggy or unfinished, he inserts the time Randy said that the game "is like a 7, 7 and a half". Within the video for the video game adaptation From Dusk Till Dawn, Civvie asks Katie the editor to find a way to sprinkle in as much of Cheech Marin's infamous "pussy" speech from the movie throughout. Anytime Katie gets Civvie into trouble, expect Civvie to shout "Katie you bitch!" Anytime in his Doom (2016) review that anyone (Civvie or otherwise) refers to the modern Doomguy as "Doom Slayer", a riff from "BFG Division" fires up. In his Daikatana review, Mikiko has a "Betrayal Countdown" appear above her head whenever she says something suspicious (or whenever Civvie lampshades how obviously suspicious her dialogue is).invoked In his Quake II video, any time Civvie mentions the "Big Gun", Brian Johnson flashes on-screen. Speaking of which, he dubs any of Big John's appearances with AC/DC's "Big Gun". Anytime a game made by Capstone Software shows an egregious example of bad game design, he exclaims "Capstone: The Pinnacle of X." When Civvie has to speed up gameplay footage, jump-cut over repetitive footage, or anything similar, he plays the World 5 music from Super Mario Bros. 3 with an "X Minutes Later" card. The act of treating several of these as Running Gagged is itself a running gag; whenever the Department deems a particular joke or reference as overplayed, they'll start punishing him for lapsing into it, to varying degrees of acceptance or defiance. He has a tendency to call areas that have particularly difficult and grueling fights "hell rooms". For DOOM games and wads like Doom 64 and Sigil, Civvie will dramatically read off their edgy "Romero-esque" level names to metal music. Within his video of Blake Stone he makes a running joke of referring to the main character each time with a different name with the structure of <common English first name> <type of rock>, such as "Nigel Basalt" and "Chad Feldspar".

Pet the Dog: Has expressed a distaste for making videos based on Game Mods, mainly because he doesn't want to be harsh toward amateur developers who made and released their work without pay. He'd end up breaking this rule specifically to heap praise on the Death Wish mod for Blood. He's quick to point out when a game suffered from Executive Meddling, such as Blood II: The Chosen being shoved out the door in an invokedObvious Beta state or Marvel forcing X-Men: The Ravages of Apocalypse to be Christmas Rushed. In these cases, his jabs against the developers are half-hearted while his real anger is directed toward the publishers. invoked Notably, this was enough to overwhelm his traditional loathing of Capstone, with him refusing to review Corridor 8: Galactic Wars, an unreleased game that had an early build leak online. The build in question was so unfinished that it was using Doom sprites and the Duke Nukem 3D menu as placeholders. Civvie is quick to pull the trigger on his "Sewer Count" Running Gag due to his distaste for the level archetype. But when Duke Nukem: Manhattan Project subverts the sewer level trope by leading into a well-made abandoned subway level, Civvie is impressed enough by the execution to take one off of the tally while complementing the devs.

Shown Their Work: The clock-drawing test given to Civvie by AX3 in the You Are Empty video is a real neurological test, used as the robot describes. The 'real' version of Civvie's test is consistent with severe neurological damage/dysfunction, which is reasonable for him considering that half of his brain is missing (with bits used to power AX3 and H4MM3R), let alone the other traumas he's suffered during his imprisonment.
