I'm glad, this sets a good precedent for creators prioritizing their craft over their fame. Bit sad tho, really liked him, but I don't think much will change for their channels.

What? When has MatPat EVER put his craft ahead of fame and money? I haven't watched in forever, but I recall him churning out content almost as if he were an LLM.

[–] FierroGamer@sh.itjust.works 8 points 10 months ago (1 children)

He's retiring from being the star on the channels, that's what the video is about.

[–] SattaRIP@kbin.social 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

And? That doesn't contradict my perspective of him at all. There are plenty of reasons to retire beside what you're inferring.

Inferring? That's what he said, lmao you keep responding like you didn't watch the thing you're talking about.

And I didn't say anything about your perspective, nor money, you're just delusional

Okay

that seems to be what he's trying to set up, keep the channels still in their niche while personally departing. I'm genuinely happy for him prioritizing himself over fame, but it's sad to see such a big name step away.

And nothing of value was lost...

OR WAS IT?!?!?

'Tis a sad day.

Some of his videos are cocaine-fueled chaos. His dark energy will be sorely missed.

Wow that’s a pretty big channel that I’d never heard of before.

[–] reev@sh.itjust.works 10 points 10 months ago (1 children)

It's 5 big channels you've never heard of before, actually.

[–] scarabic@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago

Wow wow! Well, my regrets to those who are losing a beloved video host. I can imagine how that feels.

End of an era.
