Yea, basically died when they decided to take turns with anarchy and democracy. Nothing feels particularly interesting/

I'm waiting for gen 3 to start watching again, not really a fan of this game.

Democracy lasts 50 minutes now. Everything is done in democracy now. Anarchy gets to play in a little sandbox for a while, but for anything even remotely important, democracy takes over and does some 50 minute handholding. Like using a menu, healing a pokemon, entering a gym.
You can finally call this a social experiment now. It has shown that all good things are corrputed and killed off by their "community". And that they don't even realize that they're shooting themselves in the foot, no, they create this huge circlejerk petting each other on their backs. And that's why they have a single overleveled pokemon that knows 4 moves that do damage, and there is not a single challenge in the game anymore, or anything that you could accomplish, no fun.

I haven't watched in awhile, but I'm assuming it has gone to the way of Gen 1 with Anarchy being responsible with moving from point A to point B, while Democracy does the heavy lifting.

They spent 50 minutes in democracy teaching pokemon HMs. And 30 minutes in democracy doing a puzzle in Pryce's gym that were just about to finish in anarchy (being 1 command away from talking to the gym leader). Kids are too impatient. At the beginning, democracy was used only for things that were deemed impossible (safari zone). Now, democracy is used as a convenience tool whenever possible. You see comments like "what? we have to wait 44 minutes before we can teach fly?" "We need democracy for this" or "You'll get your anarchy back once we give Eevee exp share". It's like anarchy has been incapacitated and has democracy as its legal guardian taking care of everything that's not walking and battling.

Democracy is automatically turned on at the start of every hour and then people have to vote to turn it back off. I thought it would automatically go off after 5 minutes or so. Well, that's pretty stupid yeah. The fun part about this whole thing is the random shit that happens. Democracy kinda fucks that up. It should really only be turned on during things that would otherwise be nigh impossible.

did you ever consider that since its known that a 99% anarchy run can be done, the allure of spending multiple hours on very simple tasks is lessened?
I mean, its not like I agree with what's happening but I can concede its reasonable.

I mean, its not like I agree with what's happening but I can concede its reasonable. Then what's the point of even playing? Not only that, during the time they were stuck in Pryce's gym, the viewer count increased by about 2000. Then, when democracy kicked in and the puzzle was solved, it decreased back down to14k.

It's all about the participants. If even 1/10th of those new viewers wanted Anarchy, a single vote-spam session for a minute would have put it back there. Complaining about it yet not voting to put it back is hypocritical in of itself. It's facepalm-worthy how vociferous the complaints of anarchists are, yet they don't seem determined to follow through on wanting it all the time. I like the run to be in anarchy, so when I watch and it's democracy time, I make sure to vote to put it back. That's the least a lot of anarchists could do, impose their will on a vote.

I would still call 14K reasonably successful.

People have moved on. The next big thing is http://letsplaygameboy.com/ 1.3 second delay, 100% anarchy Until it's ruined I guess. Me posting the link here doesn't exactly help.
