I think the problem is this is labeled as a "dunkview" and these videos are meant to be him giving legit critique and not supposed to be taken as jokes, so when he shows he's not playing the game properly it makes it harder to take his critique seriously. I mean if we're going to give places like Polygon shit for playing Doom 2016 poorly then Dunkey shouldn't be immune to similar criticism simply because he's generally more loved.
But also take into account Dunkey himself said in his "critics" videos that when it comes to people who rate games for themselves and not for a website it's easier to tell what their biases are, like Dunkey himself, Angry Joe, or Critikal. Dunkey outright admitted in one of those videos one of his personal issues is he has "no fucking patience" so this is why his has a bias against games with things like turn based combat or are in general a real slow burn, so as such Dunkey pretty much told people straight up "look if it's a game that looks like I'm going to hate it then chances are super high I will, so if you want an opinion from someone who is more likely to enjoy this kind of game then go elsewhere."
