I only started watching Game Grumps around the time their Paper Mario playthrough was wrapping up. That was long past their golden age and they've degraded even farther since then. I just don't understand their aversion to things like twitch or Patreon. Every single garbage decision they make - the crappy thumbnails, the change to one-offs instead of long series, the 10-15 minute long videos - are all explained with the same excuse: tHe AlGoRiThM! They try so hard to chase Youtube's money when everyone else has accepted that it's just garbage.

It's also just kinda clear that they're not super interested in doing it anymore and are doing it solely for the money.

I don't know who Cr1TiKaL/ is, but the name and the way it's spelled is cringe worthy.

It actually looks like a username from the 90's -- maybe someone on the AOL chatroom.

Spoony for sure. Really liked his videos and still watch his movie reviews. Girlfriend left him and house foreclosed. But his narcissism and laziness really did him in. The sad thing is I can't see him ever working a regular day job like the rest of us peasants. He even said he's never been able to keep a 9 to 5 job. He'll be living off his brother for the foreseeable future.

the sad part there is that I honestly don't see him living in general for very long though

He's talked about the circumstances surrounding his departure from high school before, basically being screwed around in his senior year because he moved to a new location and getting put into the worst schooling zone possible. Dude just got his GED, sold some animations to MTV and managed to eke out a living with his cartoons.

I don't like modern Game Grumps either. I don't mind their live action channel, but I'll admit that the flagship show hasn't attracted my interest in a while. Saying that, I think Arin is a pretty savvy guy for all the stuff he's done behind the scenes.

He employs other YouTubers to let them do their own thing, and the Game Grumps brand develops video games too. A few years ago when every YouTuber and their dog was going on tour, Arin had a bad experience with a touring company who didn't understand what the Game Grumps were doing - so he started his own touring company for other YouTubers, where their particular niche would be understood.

He's keeping dozens of people employed, in an office in San Fransisco that probably costs a mint to rent - especially with how nice it looks. Ross, SuperMega, the Dream Daddy devs, dozens of assistants and camera hands, Suzy - Arin's built a small empire keeping himself and other YouTubers afloat. The Game Grumps show isn't as good as it used to be, but Arin has consistently shown himself to be a good businessman and I genuinely believe he works hard to keep everything in balance.

See, I've seen this point frequently brought up to demonstrate the opposite: that he's a bad businessman. Most of the positions they've created seem to be useless or redundant which clashes with how often they talk about da algorithm making them poor.

The thing that grosses me out about Cr1tikal is how he went from Theres a lot of bad in the world so Im gonna donate all of this to charity to there are no good charities [this is actually the reason he gave] so Im actually just gonna keep it now and also heres a bunch of other ways to give me money and also here are my racist sexist homophobe friends

This hurts me the most too. Back when he was just this weirdo who wanted to end corruption and donate all his revenue despite having financial troubles of his own (which I guess is also bs now because he was actually living with his parents?). It was inspiring. He was also a holdover of early Internet anon weirdness.

I believe him when he says he's happier now, but between the people he hangs out with and becoming a full on Internet celebrity, I think he's two steps from having a Heated Gamer Moment on stream.

But yeah, all of them splitting up sucks. I don't like Matt's videos, Woolie's videos are not that good and his partners are trash and Pat just streams on Twitch, which doesn't interest me at all. I used to like watching their videos in the past but literally the only thing I care about is Pat and Woolie's podcast >_> Everything else from them just doesn't exist to me

He gets like no flak for it either because most of his fans now got there from the fortnite streams

dude dead swindled his longtime followers after getting rich off bitcoin and moving into a literal mansion

There was a toy reviewer that mostly did Hot Toys reviews. He eventually got ad venue, partnered with Machinima, went to a lot of cons and movie premieres, got engaged, and bought a house.

Then about 5 years ago, his viewership started falling, his fiance called off the engagement, he moved to an apartment, and the new children content rule killed his channel forcing him to do Uber for a living. He has about 250k subscribers but his videos only get 1,000 views now.

EpicMealTime is the one for me, by far. I also think it's one people are forgetting a lot. They were at their peak when they had all those guys with them. Now it's just Harley and Atari and it's kinda sad

This, honestly I just watch their old two best friend video from MACHINIMA era and just make me sad they split up. Spoony too but that was on him.

I mean... he was depressed but it really wasnt apparent in his videos until he came out and said so a while after.
Im glad hes doing well for himself but its a completely different appeal hes going for nowadays, which is fine... but not stuff Im interested in anymore.

Surprised nobody mentioned MagicofRahat (Rahat Hossain). Became popular with a load of his harmless magic pranks (particularly the driverless car ones), but then sold out to Little Bits and the views tanked. Then he did a prank on a homeless person where he crowdfunded to buy him a house, but kept the money for himself and disappeared off social media.

Chadtronic. His videos use to be funny and more mature, nothing amazing but still nice to watch. Now he's just loud and screams a lot. Similar to PBG with his stupid singing skits and cringe humor. Maybe I just grew out of them but they just seemed to change for the worse to me.

Kaia skates by as anti-pc but you can tell very readily that it comes from a genuine place. Extremely, deeply homophobic and transphobic person. Also recall one time he made some zesty comments after a school shooting, seems to frequently make black people jokes and is the type to often just straight up say black people as the entire joke. Shit like that.
