This, however, I do remember. ya ya because you didn't see it so it didn't exist. /facepalm here, from his youtube channel, his last explanation video. After that there were still about 20+ videos of various games but no more updates about himself. | ||

My all time favorite youtube wc3 caster was StoneBreakKid or (SBK), at least he explained why he was retiring in his last couple of videos and he did so after that, I dont see the Wc3 community raging and giving the guy any kind of hate , in fact I have the utmost respect for his decision to focus on his work as an engineer to advance his career and all his dedicated work for wc3. | ||

People getting mad at "internet personalities" for stopping producing non-profitable content are morons. "Internet personalities" often start making content as a hobby, then try to make a living out of it, or move to something else. But the aim is always to pay bill and eat three times a day. I really like the day9 dailies and they helped me a lot getting better at the game, and one day they stopped. He said he went on a hiatus, but never made any more SC2 dailies : i don't give a shit about watching him play heartstone, but i wouldn't blame him. If anything, i'm much more mad at blizzard for destroying the SC2 franchise with 2 failed expensions, then pulling ressources away from multiplayer developpement, leaving a game that has had great potential since WOL in a state where any gold-league player could figure out ways the game could be better. The lack of work from blizzard towards SC2's multi meant the viewership dropped, especially during times where the meta was stale and stupid (BLfestor/blinkallins/SH 3hours games) but where the dev team did nothing. In turn that meant people loss interest, that content produced by "internet personalities" for the game was way less profitable, meaning a lot moved on to something else, leading even more people away from the game. | ||

The worst enemy of SC2 was Blizzard itself. All those sacrifices made at the altar of APM destroyed the game. | ||

On the lower end, some of her videos have about 700K views. On the higher end, one of her videos had 13 million views. I didn't bother to look too far so she probably has other videos with even more views than 13 million. Looks like most of her videos have between 1 million to 3 million views. And she's pretty decent looking too. LOL, where do I get a wife like that? | ||

Nice stats, yeah, it's weird seeing posts from time to time talking about her as if she's just some random lady, people not knowing how much bigger and more successful her channel is (and has been) compared to Husky's.

Better luck next time there's a breakthrough in entertainment media!  | ||

It is weird how some people think that someone that produces free content that they enjoy owes them something because they are consuming that content. The content creation is always a hobby or a job for the person creating the content. If you want more of that content, be nice to them, and try to make creating the content more rewarding, for example through positive feedback. If they don't produce the things you enjoy anymore, stop consuming. Either enough people enjoy their stuff that they still keep on doing it, or they will do something else. Don't be an asshole about it. They don't owe you anything, you don't owe them anything. Being nice to people who make or have made things that you like should be a no brainer. | ||

Heck, they're not even playing the normal game, but a heavily modified version of TF2 that is extremely unpopular with outsiders. I'm glad that Husky and Day9 got out when they could. | ||

I mean, if you want talk about unjustified hate from the community, moletrap had it way worse. The guy started doing BW casts, then got the dream job of casting GSL, but the community got so toxic he had to quit. | ||
