Dartigan is a YouTube channel that follows the same premise as the popular channel, CinemaSins, however, with a theme of pointing out the sins of video games instead of movies. While created in 2013, Dartigan did not begin its Game Sins series (which now encompasses the entirety of the channel's video production) until 2014. Its creator, user, and narrator, Dartigan Jones, has openly acknowledged his channel's connection to CinemaSins. The channel can be found here.

Darker and Edgier: Dartigan doesn't support DmC: Devil May Cry's use of this, seeing the reboot's cruder tone as simply missing the balance of serious combat and vocal levity that the original series managed to maintain. Best summed up by this quote:

Artistic License – Biology: To be expected in a game like Resident Evil 6, but a particular case is when Dartigan points out the sheer lack of realism when it comes to some infection victims(namely Jameson) suddenly developing unbelievable additional amounts of body mass to transform into ridiculously large monsters.

comment
Anachronism Stew: Ryse: Son of Rome suffers from this considerably due to its extensive use of Artistic License – History(see below). He points out how Assassin's Creed: Valhalla has a tendency to modernize things, like maps that looks strikingly modern in their accuracy, and punishing a Viking raider for killing women and children. note  That is, by the Animus losing its connection to the visions the game represents by doing things that wouldn't have happened. Like...a Viking raider killing innocents?

comment
Zig-Zagged Trope in his Assassin's Creed Syndicate sins video: he notes that the investigative mechanics are highly reminiscent of Detective Mode in the Batman: Arkham Series and says that some of the other mechanics(most notably, the navigation from a high vantage point in the middle of the map) are outdated simply by virtue of being in every Assassin's Creed game with little to no variation; however, he also says that everyone's just waiting for at least one installment to take place in Japan, noting that while it has been done before, Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag had pirates, which are just as Cliché in their own right.

A borrowed one: whenever a character in a movie pulls a Lampshade Hanging concerning a particularly ridiculous part of the story or brings up Fridge Logic, CinemaSins says that (s)he "would be good at CinemaSins." Dartigan has its own version of this for Game Sins.

Deceased Parents Are the Best: Is thoroughly frustrated at how blatantly straight this is played in Assassin's Creed Syndicate, to the point where the main characters' father never appears, even in a flashback, and is solely mentioned just to inspire the twins or keep them (read: Jacob) in line.

comment
Pietà Plagiarism: The use of this in the Cain and Abel painting in the beginning of Batman: Arkham City is given a sin for two reasons: first, the immediate use of heavy-handed religious imagery, and second, the obvious fact that this painting and its setting will be significant later. At the end of the game, when Batman carries the dead Joker in the same manner, Dartigan gives the game another sin for proving him right.

Deus ex Machina
 Dartigan (Web Video) / int_3fca462c
comment
Deus ex Machina: Zig-zagged in the Ryse: Son of Rome sins video: Dartigan points out that while the game constantly says that the gods cannot directly interfere in mortal affairs, the goddess named in the credits as "Summer" frequently bails Marius out of situations that would have had fatal repercussions otherwise and gives him all of the exposition required for him to prevail in one long Info Dump; it's even revealed that Summer's counterpart, Aquilon, the Roman god of the north winds, had actually deliberately calculated and caused all of the events leading up to the game's Cold Open. However, at the end of the game, when Marius is fatally wounded and Summer does not save him, Dartigan points out that it's the one time in the story that he would have felt a Deus ex Machina was justified, yet the game passes on the opportunity to simply do what it had been doing throughout the rest of the plot. Mentioned once again(although, not in the literal sense this time) in Batman: Arkham City, when Robin comes out of nowhere to save Batman from Talia al Ghul's bodyguards:

Artistic License – History
 Dartigan (Web Video) / int_56515a39
comment
Artistic License – History: Notes several cases within Ryse: Son of Rome's continuity, including, but not limited to, the misconceptions that the Celts laid siege to Rome during Nero's reign, Nero had two sons(one of them being Commodus, who was the son of an emperor; however, this emperor was Marcus Aurelius, not Nero), and the Colosseum had been completed before or during Nero's time as emperor. The final aforementioned mistake receives particular attention, when Dartigan says that it's the equivalent of "putting the Eiffel Tower in Assassin's Creed: Unity." This receives a Call-Back when Dartigan later has to give ACU's devs a sin for doing just that:

Fantastic Racism
 Dartigan (Web Video) / int_57b80b45
comment
Fantastic Racism: One of the biggest reasons that Dartigan dislikes Battlefield Hardline is the number of times that it tosses out racist jokes, all while still trying to make the audience think that it's striving to be unprejudiced. Toyed with in the Catherine sins video, where Dartigan acknowledges that the woman from the game's opening is putting out a "strong '70s Black woman vibe'" with her manner of dress and speech, even though she is quite clearly not African-American, causing the narrator to be completely confused as to whether or not the character is a racial stereotype.

Bond Villain Stupidity: Several examples in Batman: Arkham City. The biggest case is when Dartigan calls Hugo Strange out on displaying this when he threatens Bruce with knowledge of his secret identity, but never acts on it. He also calls out the Joker for refusing to discover said secret identity when able to do so early on so as not to "spoil the fun," and Ra's al Ghul for simply lecturing the dying Hugo Strange about their own plan while Batman is right there.

Moving the Goalposts: Is particularly irritated by Helena Harper's utter refusal to give any sort of context or clarity for most of her and Leon's story segment in Resident Evil 6. Even when she finally stops ducking such an apparently important secret during a zombie apocalypse and reveals that she wrongly helped Jameson in causing the catastrophe in the first place, Dartigan sins: all of the buildup to a revelation that ultimately helps nothing; and once again, the fact that Helena felt that it was best to hide this information in the first place.

When a particularly frustrating level/segment/boss fight comes along: "I speak for everyone who's played this game when I say 'Fuck this part. Fuck this part in particular.'"

Take That!
 Dartigan (Web Video) / int_b53077b3
comment
Take That!: When the final villain of Catherine ( who bears a resemblance to a particularly popular comic book writer) appears, Dartigan remarks "Man, Stan Lee cameos are getting way out of hand." When sinning Enslaved: Odyssey to the West, Dartigan says that some of the dialogue is so bad, it's like George Lucas wrote it. He pokes at Battlefield Hardline's removal of the levolution immersion mechanic that Battlefield is known for when a building blows up in Story Mode: During the sins video for inFAMOUS: Second Son, Reggie tells Delsin that his ideas of using his powers to be a hero are unrealistic due to Conduits being seen as "freaks:" In his sins video for Fahrenheit, Dartigan calls David Cage the "M. Night Shyamalan of video games." Gives a small one to Resident Evil 5 in his RE6 video when Jake confronts Chris over killing Wesker: Gives one to American law enforcement in his Beyond: Two Souls sins video, where Jodie is limping out in the open, and the SWAT force ostensibly sent to take her in dead or alive, by any and all means necessary, starts taking formation instead of moving in for a successful capture or just shooting her: While sinning Until Dawn, Dartigan comes to the realization that the Psycho is pretty much doing Saw early on, proceeding to use this parallel as a vehicle for ridiculing not just the game at hand, but also the Saw movies themselves:

"London, England" Syndrome: Inverted. Dartigan gets on Resident Evil 6's case because it keeps being incredibly vague about its characters' locations, such as simply specifying as far as "Eastern Europe," which is not even a geopolitically stable concept in and of itself.

He even used his old channel name and intro as the sentence.

It's Been Done
 Dartigan (Web Video) / int_dc020791

It's Been Done: A Running Gag throughout the inFAMOUS: Second Son sins video is Dartigan' frequent acknowledgments of the fact that the game's plot of people with special powers that are outcasts and hunted by a government-funded black-ops organization was already made popular decades ago as the basic premise of X-Men. Zig-Zagged Trope in his Assassin's Creed Syndicate sins video: he notes that the investigative mechanics are highly reminiscent of Detective Mode in the Batman: Arkham Series and says that some of the other mechanics(most notably, the navigation from a high vantage point in the middle of the map) are outdated simply by virtue of being in every Assassin's Creed game with little to no variation; however, he also says that everyone's just waiting for at least one installment to take place in Japan, noting that while it has been done before, Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag had pirates, which are just as Cliché in their own right.

Running Gag

comment
Running Gag: A few: When a particularly frustrating level/segment/boss fight comes along: "I speak for everyone who's played this game when I say 'Fuck this part. Fuck this part in particular.'" When a particularly obnoxious phrase or sound is uttered: "Uaghh!" *Adds 5 more sins*. When Dartigan easily identifies an incoming Cliché from a mile away, he may later respond to the "revelation" with: "Fucking called it." Resident Evil 6 has its own gag: "Missile/Rocket that should kill Chris and Piers doesn't. Stick with me, I'm building a theme here." A borrowed one: whenever a character in a movie pulls a Lampshade Hanging concerning a particularly ridiculous part of the story or brings up Fridge Logic, CinemaSins says that (s)he "would be good at CinemaSins." Dartigan has its own version of this for Game Sins. Ryse: Son Of Rome has its own gag where Dartigan says Punctuated! For! Emphasis! every time the aforementioned trope appears, so much so that the 5th and final time that it happens, he just acknowledges it as an Overly-Long Gag and tosses out 3 extra sins. Castlevania: Lords of Shadow also has its own throughout its boss battles(see Follow the Leader above), where Dartigan says that someone on the developer team must have "REALLY liked Shadow of the Colossus." There are also Dartigan' repeated expressions of annoyance at the obvious hints that Gabriel was his wife's killer. Whenever a Sequel Hook appears, Dartigan will simply say "Sequel baiting" and add a sin. inFAMOUS: Second Son has one where Dartigan points out each of the many, many points where the game rips off X-Men. The Batman: Arkham Series has one where Dartigan basically says some variant of "No one wants Robin to be in this game."
