Talking about some background stuff that's been on my mind for a while. Let me know what you think Watch me stream at: www.twitch.tv/madseasonshow

Hey man, thanks for watching and resonating with the video. Godspeed!

Even though I gave up on WoW years ago I have never missed a KZfaq upload from you. You genuinely bring joy to my life. I am sure I’m only one amongst tens if not hundreds of thousands of people you help entertain.

Raxxanterax used to play WoW during TBC, mostly on my home server of Silvermoon US Horde with other Rax clan members in a guild called BattleZone Crew. Bigmeaux, Raxmrmickey, few others. He was a super cool dude, still is. Yes I have a great long term memory and every time I hear his name it makes me remember the better times of WoW, the good ol days!

Got nothing but love for you man, thank you for being you.

Hi Madseason, thanks for sharing your thoughts and feelings. As a longtime viewer, it surprised me to hear about the negativity that came your way, even if it's less than 1% of your viewer base, because you always come off as an even headed and fair guy. I guess that's just the nature of having millions of people see your stuff, you're definitely going to come across some crazy. I'm sure I'm not saying anything you don't know, you said the same in your video, I guess I'm just trying to show support, man. You're one of the few KZfaqrs whose new videos actually gets me excited. It's not just "oh, new vid," when your content pops up in my subscriptions, its "oh shit, new Madseason vid, gotta set some time aside take his editing in." And man, I don't even play WoW, I just like the way you talk/ present it. Anyway, I'm rambling here. Tl:Dr, you're right to feel the way you do, I just want to show support by saying that on the other end of the negative spectrum are people like me who watch you despite not playing WoW.

Dude, you're part of the "Goold old days" of WoW. When I take a break, and come back, I always start by watching your videos. Youre legit part of my nostalgia as it pertains to gaming, WoW, and general internet viewing. And I'm closer to 40 than I am to 30! You helped spur the "rebirth" of the WOW community post legion. You're more important than you know. You're a legend, and I hope you keep making videos - whatever they are about!

Madseason, have you ever considered reading books or short stories aloud on an alternate channel? I think you have a good voice for it

I HATE... That people make you feel sad, much love my dude.

bruh... I love the monotone voice XD It's soothing hahaha

About 12 months ago I had my first child. I was so excited about being a parent but let me tell you the first 3 months were extremely mentally challenging and demanding. Some of the hardest days in my life. I used to listen to all of your videos when going for a walk with my child in a stroller and it honestly was that little part of my day I looked forward to at the time. Those dark days are long gone now, but your videos really were a beacon of light in those dark times and for that I am very thankful. Thank you MS.

This is a very insightful take on a problem that goes far beyond video games. Tribalism and social media are a toxic combination.

Dude, you are a bright side of the internet for me MadSeason. Keep up the good work. You can’t please everyone but you CAN positively affect hundreds of thousands of good ones. If you let the pathetic ones win, the hundreds of thousands who love your work lose.

As someone who's watched both you and Raxx for many years, I firmly believe both of you genuinely care about the games you play. Raxx really got me back into Diablo 3 after its less than stellar beginnings. He became popular enough for the devs of that game to actually listen to his and others input about it and it actually made it a really awesome game (unfortunately far too late in its lifespan.)

I've valued your take on WoW. I also started playing Classic WoW based on your love of the original game. Which I also played in 2006, but never reached endgame, so I played it because you emphasised the importance of the journey, and that is the best part the game for me. The leveling experince and the exploration of world was my draw card and you made that important again. I've watched a lot WoW channels and yours is the only one I continue to back too and watch old content, because the memories and nostalgia you provide is important in my life. I love your channel.

Your rise of the influencer video was incredibly compelling and one of my favorite video essays I've seen in a long time. I'm happy I stumbled upon your SoD video. Keep up the great work man.

Thank you for your constant sincerity man.

Dude, I’m a voiceover artist, and I love your voice! The way you deliver content is amazing, the monotony in your voice is what makes you special! I sleep so well listening to Azeroth Arsenal vids, not kidding, you helped me with insomnia several times.

It's YOUR channel, make what you want, and just have fun. I have been playing wow off-and-on for a few years. I made a rant vid about the state of DF, purely out of passion for the game. and I felt like it was a worthwhile topic nobody was discussing. I had a few people agree, but there was a handful of comments; colorfully describing how wrong i am (im saying this lightly). However the greatest comment i got was just someone telling me, "if i dont like it, go play another game!" I know it was meant to be a gatekeepy jab, but honestly that was when i took a step back, realizing, yes...i...can... and not only that, i WILL go play something else, some people are in too deep, and the actiblizz patheon is all they have, spread your wings, and just make stuff YOU like. Been a long-time fan, and your monotone delivery, and deadpan humor are iconic, if d4/wow get better in the future, make stuff about it if you want, but do it for YOU. I know i cant wait to see what comes next!

You've just gotta appreciate Raxx. He's grinding out there on the D4 PTR 24/7 writing volumes of observations and sending them to Blizzard just so they can polish the game as much as possible to make it good for us in S4.

Never forget one thing: There are people out there that are so twisted, dark, and deranged, that it would be the most abominable insult to get any kind of "positive" feedback from such life-forms. They are thankfully few as are the negative comments that go with them, but you need to see it as a statistical necessity rather than anything to be bothered by. If you organize it that way, you have 100% positive feedback in the bottom line. :)

I mean, you are the guy who passionately made wow videos, stood as a shining beacon of positivity in perhaps the worst era of the game in BFA, but then as soon as classic launched you did a 180 and became quite insufferably anti-retail. You're within your rights to do that of course, if you don't like a game you shouldn't be supporting it, but it was quite clear that you were revelling in the opportunity to profit from wow but also hate on it as well. It was calculated, sudden, and contrasting your earlier videos to your mid-life videos, I think some criticism towards you was earned.

It's hard to overstate how important your videos about the level boosts were to me. I was so heartbroken about Blizzard's decision, but much more so by the community's seemingly-majority approval. Where did the amazing community of 2019 go? You voiced my exact feelings in a much more articulated way than I ever could. And for us old school boomers that love the game for the gameplay, it really saddened my heart to watch Blizz head in that direction, but your videos gave me some solace, feeling less alone. As for haters, I think it's pretty much inevitable. One could even say that if you don't have any haters at all, you're probably too bland. I have no desire to be a "content creator", yet even my latest video on my 1-60 Nudist hardcore achievement run (Xaryuenjoyer 3) on my microscopic channel got some random hate comment. So I guess it's all par for the course, sadly. Oh, and you have a tiny cameo in it, a very small tribute :) Thanks for all your content, you are the voice of more people than you think!

Been watching you for a little over 5 years. You're one of the most genuine youtubers out there. Keep your head up bud.

Hey madseason I don’t comment much at all usually. I typically lurk signed out I started playing wow back in late mop and early WOD and I was about 9-10 years old lmfao. Throughout elementary school and highschool I wouldn’t miss a single upload from you, and you only added more passion for a game I loved. I also quit playing wow as it stopped scratching the itch it had before, but I didn’t stop watching your videos. I’m kinda rambling but the whole point of me saying this is no matter what game you play, or whatever you move onto man I’ll always show support for you brother. You’re a damn legend and I appreciate all you do.

dude you're one of the few people i follow on youtube that i set time aside to watch your videos. your videos are nostalgic, well edited, and entertaining. your last video on D3 was so good i watched it twice lmao. sure it was very critical, but it deserved it, and i learned a lot. screw the haters. I'm excited for what ever you decide to put out. do what you love and love what you do... also you were right and you told us so.

Excited to see some MadSeason game reviews! Being stuck in a niche can be hard, but you straight up just make good content mate.

Can't remember if I already commented. Just want to show my support. I love your videos; they are very relaxing. And I've learned a TON of lore and history from you. Please continue, as long as it brings you joy. All the best.

I haven’t played WoW for years, but I’ve been watching your channel for years anyway. You’re very entertaining and have a real passion for making videos. Keep it up man!

We love you bro, we do

Honestly, I think all content creators get to this point where those trolls on youtube get to them. As part of the territory, you have to hold your head up high. I am glad you made this video. People do not realize that you are passionate about something, and you make content to express that compassion. I think most people realize this, but there are different strokes for different folks. This was a great video MadSeason. Thank you again!

For the record, I think you are a top tier wow KZfaqr. Really enjoy your content, much appreciated man

Diablo 4 was loved at launch because the campaign was awesome. The story, characters, and world were great. There were plenty of side quests and the size of the map was so large that it took a lot of time to get through everything. The backlash came when the story was over and there was very little there.

Dude, i love your videos i always find myself coming back to your content whenever i feel like i need to relax, have some tea or coffe get myself comfy and listen to the stories you have to tell, its oddly calming, so whatever content you're looking to make, i'm going to keep watching, its like my comfort chanel.

Been talking about this for years and just get laughed off. No surprise that the same people who told me I'm being paranoid or not liking anything fun are now crumbling in agony as people start to call them out on their bullshit like what was discussed in this video.

Focusing on the negative is s survival instinct. Back in the day it was extremely important to always have full attention to negative things that could happen to you

Love you dude, don't blame you for whatever time away from the comment section on youtube, it's a cesspit

Whenever a company starts looking at their customers as "fans", things go wrong. People who come to Blizzcon might be "fans": , they're customers first, paying (the equivalant of) 15$ a month to play your game. Blizzard in its current state doesn't deserve any "fans", and even if you are, never admit it out loud.

Thanks for the vid Mad, About the video itself, I think you are spot on in your assessments, and I think you were right doing it in a style of a react, it works in this case as it gives subjects that you can expand on in detail as you do. General comments: I, as player of WOW from the start moved to FF14 for awhile during the darker days, and canceled my sub, and since I have such a soft spot for WOW I eventually came back. Also note you music in your vids is top notch, perfect placement it doubles the effect of them. And side note, your monotone, steady cadence way of speaking is also a good vid for going to sleep to on rewatches :)

I remember sitting in my garrison watching your videos before raid back in WoD. It's crazy how long ago that is now...nearly 10 years ago! I still play WoW, after taking a break during SL. And I still watch your videos when they come out as no matter what your covering, it takes me back to that time in 2015/2016.

this content creator looks like a castle crashers character

Great content everytime, like to listen to your opinions and experiences and take on things. Got into your content when i barely ever even played wow, but you got me intrigued in the world even without playing. Thank you!

This is the first time I heard you online for about 2 years or so, I listened to a vid you made about a shooter game you posted a couple of hours ago. I listened to it 3 times just for the nostalgia of hearing your voice again. your voice is monotone as you know, but i think your voice is nice. and your content good.

Nice, always good to see someone changing up their format.

If you're looking for feedback: the little eye bloop noises your character makes is genius and brings me an unproportional amount of joy, and I love the monotone delivery (be it genuine, which I suspect, or not... it's still great in either case). I'm a new subscriber and just found your videos a month ago... I like the critical videos, because I share many of the same perspectives, and it's one of the main reasons I got into game development, I wanted to make the games that I wanted to actually play (I've been in AAA and indie for going on two decades now). An example are your pandoras boxes videos like for SWG --- that's what I lived through... I was there for that... and those where the complaints that me and my friends (even irl friends) had about the game, that we still toss about now and again to this very day. To put it to a timeline and really explain in detail about the failings there, not only hits me with immense nostalgia, not only validates my long standing hatred for what happened to that game that only a small few truly understand the depths of that betrayal, but more than that, it gives me perspective on my own games and games that I work on; And that's priceless. There are some channels that do nothing but shit on upcoming games... Kira being the biggest offender I can think of off the top of my head (games are hard to make, and judging something for being a year or two behind or being crazy picky about alpha footage is inherently nearing grifter status taking advantage of those that don't know anything about game development)... but your content isn't that. I really do enjoy your content, especially from a 'historian' type of way.... if you don't have fun making that content, even if it is inherently critical or negative, you shouldn't make it... but like I said, I rather enjoy your content and I hope you make more. THERE IS ROOM FOR CRITISISM AND NOTING RUINOUS ACTIONS BY DEVELOPERS/PUBLISHERS/ETC... anyone whose hot take is 'it's negative and just farming for views' is throwing the baby out with the bath water... yes some channels are grifters that are overly critical for views... but this channel isn't that; your analysis is competent and very informative... and it gives future developers/publishers/etc confidence in knowing what works and what doesn't work and why.

iTS IMPOSSIBLE TO HATE YOU MATEEEE

I started playing when the game came out and have huge nostalgia for old wow. I didn't get to play classic when it came out cus I work all the time, and I knew if classic was anything like those first three years, I would stop working and do that 17 hours a day. I got to live vicariously through you and that was pretty rad. Thankyou.

lurker here. some of the hardest jobs imo is anything where you have to be social, ive worked in customer service and its the worst jobs ive had. i know what it's like to deal with the worst of people. im lucky with a chill warehouse job and coming home playing video games and watching interesting or fun videos by people like you is my favorite thing to do. thank you for all the content. ♡

@Madseasonshow - Your videos are articulate and have always been on-point. Don’t sweat the small stuff. Blizzard is no longer the Blizzard we grew up with. Time changes everything.

Bro I haven't played WoW in years... okay okay I did some SoD but got bored 😅 but you're one of my favorite creators irrespective of what you talk about, cheers brother!

Thank you for sharing your thoughts in this video. The art of compromise has unfortunately been lost over the last number of years. I appreciate your nuanced and balanced discussion as it is more intelligent than arguing one side of the debate. Continue to make the content that you want to make. I for one will follow your journey.

Your videos were cathartic to me. As someone who grew up loving Blizzard and seeing it slip into the shell of what it was today. Even as someone who never got into WoW as much a hardcore player like yourself, your videos came from a place of love, which is what makes them so. God knows it’s not the voice acting.

I enjoy any video from you fella. Keep em coming

I loved this video! Im here for YOU not any particular game. P.s hearing you genuinely laugh made me smile

I came for the wow videos, I stayed for MadSeason. Love your channel more than beyond uour videos. Much love and stay safe

13:14 you know there is an ancient proverb, it's says: we hear the tree that falls not the forest that is growing

Also Blizzard said layering is going to be only for few months after classic release. It's been what, 5 years and we still have layering through all of vanilla, tbc, wrath and now sod.

Bro I havent played wow in years, And I still watch all your vids, especially Loved the dive into Star Wars Galaxies (loved that game). all your contents great mate.

Recently you put out a video titled “the Diablo 3 dumpster fire” and I watched it probably twice if not half a third time. I enjoyed the video because I was actually there at the time experiencing the stuff you were discussing and showing. What I enjoyed the most, was how the community across all social platforms came together and voiced our concerns. Most importantly, there was in fact a happy ending with reaper of souls. I appreciated you taking me down memory lane with that video and in no way did I feel like this channel was negative or you came across as a game trash view chaser. In fact, I hadn’t even heard of the term until you made this video here! I think it’s just an opinion some people have which I wouldn’t take to heart. Your content and others speaks for itself. It’s a great, informative channel filled with nostalgia and I wouldn’t mind if you covered some of Helldivers 2 or new stuff as well. The Bob Ross of game channels shouldn’t let this criticism nudge that happy little tree one bit! 😊

I want you to know that your videos pointing out some of the errors, flaws and outright greed that blizz was doing are some of my favorite videos of all time. Because it felt like someone was saying what I had been thinking when I quit. *It came from a place of love and nostalgia and treating a cherished thing with as much respect and fairness and objectivity yet constructional criticism that it earned and knew it was earning* . For no reason other than to make a viewpoint that many didn’t consider or understand or ever will appreciate.

Hi Mad. I love your videos. I’m actually in hospital at the moment, recovering from an operation, which went well. I’ve been going through your Vanilla videos to keep me entertained 🙂 You have a calming voice and sensible takes.

Your monotone is comforting. Always loved your vids

Mad, you are one of the spined genuine real deal players with massive integrity. I am grateful I bumped to your videos. Not a single one that I wouldn't have enjoyed or found insightful since classic era. I just wanted to say this, thank you so much for keeping it real. My dream would have been to play with you as I am 99% sure it would have been fun and resourceful. I quit wow since tbc, sent a message to blizzard stating I will never again play your games as you've repeatedly let down the playerbase, and also your own workers. But, you're probably the only(ok, few more pvp creators) one I watch for wow content. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

Couple of things, Mad: - Thank you for the content over the years. - Your videos have never come across as hate-videos to so many of us. - We're with you wherever your channel goes in the future, whatever that may be for you. - The WoW Memories series were what brought me to your channel and I want to shout those out as my favorite.

In general, a significant number of youtube channels are actually detrimental to the health of a game. Not because they complain about the game, but because they demystify the game to such a fundamental degree, that they flood the community with low hanging fruit. Top 10 lists, things you need to know before you play X, secret ways to make money playing Y. It is too much. A mmo that is solved is no longer about the journey or discovery, which is the antithesis of what a mmo should be. So in a way, the internet is responsible for killing modern gaming standards, because every time a new expansion comes out for wow, there are 20 videos up on every aspect of the game before it's even been out for a week. I think a lot of this contributes to people being angry with online multiplayer games, because if you aren't following these low standard content creators, you aren't following the meta, and therefore don't take the game as seriously as they do. It really isn't a healthy way of thinking of games.

Mr. MadSeason, I genuinely enjoy your perspective. I think the monotone and stoic delivery is what set yours apart in a good way. Its grounded and authentic and what I would expect to hear from a friend in a casual conversation. "It is important to be able to extract useful information from even the most non constructive criticism and critique." This requires a high level of emotional and character maturity and wisdom because it directly stems from the ability to honestly self reflect. This virtue is sorely scarce in current year. I especially wnat to praise your attitude towards receiving inappropriate and non constructive criticism. Anyways, hang in there buddy.. KZfaq is better with you on it.

I like your channel a lot and will be brief. These conversations are interesting but ultimately unproductive when viewers get involved. Content creators in this space make a living playing video games, while viewers use those games and videos to unwind from their real-world jobs. It's difficult for viewers to empathize with content creators. Being able to quit a mundane job and play video games in front of an audience seems like a dream. Hearing content creators complain about games or their communities is like listening to entertainers talk about their work difficulties. It's like peasants trying to understand nobility's problems-they could if they tried, but they're too preoccupied with their own struggles to fully grasp it. I am glad you were able to take a 2 year break and come back feeling better about the game and making videos. A 2 year break from work would help a lot of people right now but they don't get that same luxury. Just my 2 cents amigo. I wish nothing but the best for you, your friends, your family, and anyone else you hold near and dear.

I think that as soon as you're as big as blizzard AND you're incentivised by growth and profit, then the devs/marketing people don't listen to good feedback, the "I want more of that" - BECAUSE the game has to grow and be more profitable each quarter or it's a loss. maintaining happy customers isn't the way forward for a company....

people are assholes end of story, the only thing you can do is stop caring or youll drive yourself insane.

How in the world does madseason have hate watchers? Most positive dude while still being genuine,critical and not sugarcoating what is wrong with the game, Most people have already said this but Madseason makes thee best Blast from the past nostalgia videos, no game will ever be Vanilla or TBC that is why people keep playing that version and private servers, people can say all they want "yeah i found another mmo", but its just a cheap replacement. That is why ill always love madseasons videos cause its just a blast from the past when the game was the peak.

Over the past however many years, we as humans have become so engrossed in the consumption of media. Whether the overall effects of this shift are good or bad is a completely different discussion, but either way the shift happened and that’s just how things are and you can’t really change that. However, people CAN change how they choose to interact with that media. Too many people blatantly consume with little to no thought about what it is they are actually taking in and when that approach is applied to super time consuming games like MMOs or ARPGs, nothing good can come from it. Instead of playing games for the sake of enjoying them, they’re played as an escape or just as something to fill some kind of void. So, when a game like that goes bad, it’s only natural that they’ll continue to engage with it and they’re either incapable of recognizing it’s flaws, or they choose to blame it’s flaws on other people, such as the players or content creators who critique it. It’s the sunk-cost fallacy in action. They’ve invested so much time into it that they can’t justify any sort of criticism because if they admit that the game is flawed, then it would mean all the time spent playing it was wasted. So when someone says something bad about it, they take it as a personal attack. I think the fact that you’re willing to acknowledge a games flaws while still actively rooting for it, and the fact that you can still appreciate the fun times you’ve had in the past, as well as the good things that a game has done for you and the industry as a whole, shows not only your genuine passion for the game, but it shows that you’re a responsible consumer that understands why they engage with specific media. You understand what makes you happy and what doesn’t. You understand just how unhealthy it is to continue shoving something down your own throat for the sake of brand “loyalty” or in order to mindlessly chase after nostalgia. Personally, I absolutely love witnessing the amount of effort you put into expressing your thoughts on any given subject because the way you express yourself demonstrates that you truly care about whatever you’re talking about, whether that be WoW, Blizzard, gaming as a whole, or any of the other topics you’ve covered on your channel and because of that I think you’re genuinely one of the best channels out there.

Lots of love mister season show❤

I'm very excited to see your take on video game reviews. No matter how you pivot your channel a large portion will still stick around for YOU.

It puts a smile on my face every time I hear “Told you so by the way” please never let that down it’s just so funny to me.

Video was released 5 minutes ago, but comments are already 3 days old.... KZfaq wtf?

BIG DOG! thanks for the Plush figure! recieved it during christmas. Best purchase ever, i have him by my side on all my gaming adventures. Youve given me free content for years, so of course i had to support the boy!! big ups! btw your most infamous players vid was my first

I played a 7 day free trial of WoW back in ‘08 and the game just wasn’t for me, but I’ve always been aware and fascinated with WoW (thanks to my uncle who used to play it religiously until Cataclysm). I’ve learned so much about WoW through you and Asmon. Your videos are just that good, that I essentially subscribed to a channel that makes content about a video game that I don’t even play. Been loving your Pandora’s box series and everything else you’ve made after quitting WoW. Keep doing what makes you happy. Your fans will always support you.

I'm happy to have more videos like these where you're just talking about/reacting to something that you think is worth commenting on or discussing. Also glad youre back to HappySeason :)

tldr?

Raxx is always constructive, D4 is just that much garbo.

One of your greatest draws for me is how genuine you are. I think in a world as fake as the social media world is, it's refreshing and special and is a big draw for many others. Keep doing what you do. If you love something, share the love. If you hate something, share the hate (as much as you can stomach). That's why we love you.

I don't fully understand how anyone could have anything negative to say about you. Me personally, your vids up to classic launch got me through a really dark period, I had just lost my fiance, had to move across country and your voice was comfort for me. Thanks for all you do.

You spoke far beyond the original video, you paused it all the time, made a majority of the video about you......... This is not how reaction videos work. If you want to make this a stable of the channel, you have to get FAAAR lazier than this. Just some constructive criticism 😜

CrySeasonShow again..

Dont you even think about quitting this, your therapeutic voice, knowledge and the way you bring it by is why we are all here. And as i said in your twitch chat, i dont even play WoW but i watch your every vid. Much love brother

I will admit that I sometimes watch hate-view content, a big example being Az from Heal vs Babyface. Of course, I find him entertaining, but he also generally covers content I wouldn't otherwise watch, like Batwoman or Robyn Hood. I first encountered your channel when Classic was being released. I had played back in Vanilla, but honestly didn't care if they brought it back with Classic. I had played on some private servers a bit and didn't get into it, possibly because the bulk of them are PVP servers, and I don't play that way. But I watched your videos at that time and your enthusiasm for Classic made me enjoy it more. I joined a guild and raided, something I hadn't done in Vanilla. Life interfered and I left after a few months, and when I returned for Lich King Classic (intentionally skipping Burning Crusade because I detest that expansion with a passion), found my characters had been ported onto the new server and I would have to pay to transfer them back to Vanilla Classic. On the whole though, WoW doesn't work for a casual player. I played Dragonflight when it released, and enjoyed it, joining a guild for raiding and mythic+ content. I stepped away for about 5 months and my heroic-geared main was no longer even viable because I had missed the ilvl advancement. Brand-new 70s were better geared than I was, I was floundering around trying to figure out what I needed to do, and not geared enough to handle it solo. I just went back to ESO, which is what I've generally split my time with WoW on for the past 10 years. At least with ESO, there are no new levels to grind just because they release new content. Crafted gear is viable if not BIS. And character builds I've used for several years are still usable when I return from a break. I can concentrate on enjoying the new content instead of feeling like I've been demoted from master of the universe to noob again. As far as content providers, I still enjoy your videos, as well as those of hirumaredx, even though I'm not playing WoW (and after my last attempt I probably won't return at all). One type of content creator I have no respect for is someone like Asmongold. I thought he was an annoying prick when I saw him on WoW videos, but at one point he tried out ESO and was putting out guides as if he knew anything about the game.

I have watched your conent and other content like it since, well, the beginning of youtube and I can probably count on one hand the number of comments I've left. I know there are millions like me. We are all overwhelmingly happy with the content we watch and have no interest in the "drama of the day" on Reddit. Just know that we are the many and they are the vocal minority. Thanks for all the content throughout the years!!

Just wanted to share that I would love to hear your reviews of games. Something I've personally struggled with is since the passing of Totalbiscuit, there aren't a lot of reviewers who go out of their way to find smaller or more niche games and give them in-depth reviews. While there are definitely some out there, they tend to have very accentuated personas that are just too much for me personally. It would be great to see you helping fill that role, as I feel from your WoW content that you're great at providing that same in-depth analysis that often touches on points I wouldn't have even considered previously.

Haven't played wow for at minimum 10 years and still watch every single one of your videos. Like your voice and vibe in the vids, fun to hear stories about the game. Would love to watch videos about other games as well, doc style. Cheers!

Love your takes, they’re very educated and well thought out. Very excited to see it applied to reviews.

This was an effective advertisement for the "Ballad of the Level Boost" video.

Thoughtful, insightful, level-headed commentary that manages to keep things interesting with great pacing. You kept my attention for over an hour and I don't even play WoW. You just have a wonderful way with words and branching out to other content will almost assuredly work out for you! As a newer viewer to this channel brought by this video and some others, I'd just like to say you're a pleasure to watch even to the newer viewer. Cheers

I have not played WoW in years but i always listen/watch your stuff while i play whatever game on the side,i personally very much enjoy your rambles,regardless of the subject.keep them vids coming!

I found your channel while playing Wow Classic for a few months. I watch your videos because you articulate your point of view in a reasonable, nuanced way. Keep up the great work!

It's one thing to blindly hate something/ wish it failed because they didn't like whatever happened but there are those who actually are passionate about a game they play and try to improve the experience for themselves or others through constructive criticism. I quit the game back in Legion but still look back on my experiences fondly.

they always do that where they don't to try refute the points, and immediately just attack the person

Looking forward to seeing your game reviews. I stuck around after Wow and I'll be here till the end. You inspired me to make content back during classic and I ran into a lot of stuff you did on a smaller scale. Thanks again for the videos and just remember for every arse in the chat there are 10 that appreciate the content you do.

Got to visit with you on stream for the first time last night and now you drop a fresh new video. I've really enjoyed your videos. I've learned so much about wow, laughed a lot and used that amazing voice you have, lol, to fall asleep to. I appreciate you continuing to make videos despite the haters. I hope you keep on making the content that makes you happy. Farewell for now mortals.

19:51... I legitimately spit my coffee out. Just casually, listening along with the video, and bam... heavy dose of reality! hahahaha

1. You are not monotone. Your delivery is deadpan. There's a difference. Deadpan goes perfectly with your sense of humor. It makes me listen more carefully so I can laugh more. 2. Your frustrations with Blizzard/WOW are often the same as mine, but you've also helped me understand what I find so compelling about Azeroth. I came back to Classic as a hardcore player largely because of you and, in doing so, I re-connected with a World of Warcraft that I had thought was gone forever. Never apologize for being thoughtful, calm, and honestly self-reflective - they may be your best qualities and they come through in your videos.
