He didn't owe people Ghoul Grumps. They've never hyped it up or said expect it every year.

Honestly I don't much care for scary/horror games so I didn't really care, but yeah, if he really couldn't have/didn't want to do Ghoul Grumps this year he should've at least acknowledged it before the time 90% of the fanbase was expecting it came and went.

I also kind of wonder if the situation with people bitching about Jingle Grumps interrupting the Doki Doki Literature Club playthrough last year soured him on the idea of doing holiday specials.

yea. all the videos near the end of October were filled with comments asking about Ghoul Grumps. and people wouldn't shut up about it. I like Ghoul Grumps. but I had no idea it was going to upset Arin like this. I kinda feel bad for him. he seems depressed

It's sad how every fanbase always has to have this portion of it (usually the vocal minority) that is just pure cancer.

Like, Dan or Arin could literally be away in the hospital spending time with their dying parent or whatever and people would be wishing death on them for not releasing enough episodes. It's fucked, people need to let shit go.

YouTube apology videos are almost as narcissistic as youtubers themselves, but here it just seems like the younger fans are the problem.

And Shitstorm is better anyway.

From the tiny bit I've seen: GG tends to do holiday-themed chunks of videos for stuff like Halloween and Christmas and such, and this year the halloween themed chunk was lacking because they've had a fuckton of other things to deal with, and the entitled section of his fanbase who can't think beyond their own self-interests took it as a direct insult.

Yeah.

Arin can be a dick but being angry at him because of this is very stupid.

i don't remember what episode it was but Dan had remembered it was almost Halloween and was like "hey we didn't do that this year? lets do it!" and Arin just kind of shrugged it off like "ehh...nah" and moved on. It wasn't really a big thing. Unless he said it elsewhere too...

Its kind of sad because it seems like he's more upset that people went to Dan's video and spammed it more than anything. Like he blamed himself that Dan's personal career was being affected by a decision he made. People suck. Literally throwing a fit over not having a different intro for a week? lol.

I mean, they've only done one proper series in the last two months since they abandoned Skyward Sword with no explanation, so that's probably not why.

It completely is. You can even tell in the video that Arin thinks this is stupid and trivial.

Either way a fan is a fan to him and a minority of their fan base got so upset so he's acknowledging them. He's got more compassion than I have cause I certainly wouldn't have made a video like this to address some tantrum throwing fans.

Also super fucked up that they would blast the comment section of Dan's separate project from GG to bitch about GG.
