People think im controversial when I have the most average gamer takes of all time.
I think olympus is a cool guild, and i wish runescape would have went forward with reignited.
I also think some people on twitch viewbot too much.
Sue me.
25 million is hyperbole due to my frustration with youtube over the past year or so.
Many strategists whom Iโve chatted extensively with also agree.
Outside of promoting positivity and bland platitudes about just being the best you can be, youtube has degraded.
It used to be a skill that was not only exceptional and took a lot of time and effort to cumilate, but also it was replicable and repeatable
These days there is far too much AI and algorithmically coded influences for someone to claim that itโs just โaudience feedback.โ
Imo.
No disrespect btw, just passionate about the subject.
@wayofzorro Quit.
If you have to survive on it youโll take the risks required to be better, especially with such a good baseline, you already know how to get viewers.

Straight up.
I used to call this game and the 2nd movie in general โthe twin towersโ
Until i was about 29 and in one of my old streams someone corrected me.
It's mostly due to corporate bloat and the massive chain of command that decisions have to go through reducing risk every step of the way.
The best games keep coming from smaller studios with smaller teams; Clair Obscur, Hollow Knight, even Balatro or Megabonk.
You have to take big risks for big rewards and most AAA studios are risk averse.
So does anyone have a fairly succinct explanation as to why itโs become so exceedingly difficult to make good video games anymore? Like this is a thing society used to be able to do.
