So does that mean the final season of Red vs Blue isn't going to be done?

Not surprised since the numbers were slipping for a while. I didn't watch RWBY or RvB, but watched alot of the other content. I hope they leave the YouTube channels up, but with WB who knows.

Seems like a byegone relic from the old Internet era that got really big based on hype. If I recall, they had over 400 employees at one point. Don't know how they made a profit since there stuff wasn't really that popular recently.

Wait is Red vs. Blue STILL going on!? Jesus I remember a guy in my dorm showing me that from like 2008 (and I think it already had multiple seasons at that point). I only watched the 1st season. It was alright >_>

Doesn't he just want show like 90 Day Fianc since they're cheap to make.

I don't know how to explain it, but it feels equally surprising that they've been around this long AND that have suddenly been shut down.

From my understanding, the modern Red Vs. Blue is really nothing from the old school one. I remember a few years ago they either censored or removed official ways for seeing some episodes from the old seasons because they had some content that made the current staff feel uncomfortable.

This one is actually legit. Their numbers have been in free fall since some things came to light about treatment of employees. WB has been trying to sell them off for awhile with no takers

For me the original died once they moved to I think it was the Halo 3 world. I thought they just stopped, but supposedly there were like 5 extra seasons eventually. I doubt they are any good but I'll watch them.... eventually.

Given how Zaslav has been actively screwing over their cartoon and comic book divisions because he simply doesn't like them regardless of profits, of course I feel skeptical with things.

No one wants to see an indie project go down in flames, especially after it gets mainstream exposure on the level RWBY did (An anime, several manga, Cross Tag Battle, etc.) But it's just hard to see this an anything but RoosterTeeth's own fault for various reasons.

It sucks that this is Monty's legacy

i liked the halo 3 seasons. and the one set in Reach... the ones when they switched to 4 were weak to me, but i still watched them.

Man, I would've been damn sad at this news 5 or so years ago. They really fell off a cliff around that time and basically shed all their relevant talent and I haven't watched any of their stuff in a while, even Funhaus.

RWBY always stunk, though.

I'm of the opinion that Season 3 (iirc the first season after he passed) was the only really good one. But then again I never got into machinima culture and only watched the show on recommendation from a friend.

Volume 1 was pure jank with some good fight scenes. 2 felt a lot cleaner, and also had solid fights. 3 was probably the best overall.
