    To be honest, Dream during the Unsolved Mysteries/Early Manhunts were some of most entertaining content around. He was an amazing RUclipsr. He wasn’t under too much pressure, he was honest. But now, he’s under tons of pressure. Has to always be careful of what he’s saying. Having millions of children obsessed with him on the palm of his hands. And the dishonesty he’s had with the Speedrunning allegations. Hopefully the pressure doesn’t get to him. He’s not really affected right now, but eventually, time will catch up to him. And he’ll want to go back towards a time where he had no pressure. Only time will tell…..

    Two things that make up Dream's detriment during his rise: Cheating Scandal and the toxic Stans. If you push the Cheating Scandal to one side, you can see how popular and respected he is with his Manhunt videos, but put that Scandal back in, and some people will hate him for cheating, maybe even send threatening messages... You can say that Dream would have not made such controversial drama about how he cheated, he could have just made the speedruns without anything involved. And we've pretty much moved from that... The only problem that he has to deal is the toxic Stans, that's one thing he and other popular RUclipsrs can have, but they praise Dream as like a God, and ready to defend him even during his cheating scandal, and to send death threats to anyone who hates him... In any way, I would believe that he couldn't control his fanbase, not that he told them but he just couldn't maintain the fanbase to be more rational and clean... And now they also kinda go on and try to stalk on him. The detriment that has been made up ever since is why Dream hasn't been able to (or can't) do a face reveal

      its not that anyone demand him to control his fanbase, but he is actively ignoring and sometimes even encourages the stans to do what they do. He enjoys the attention and even play along their idea version of him for them. He brought the problem to himself, then plays the victim card, same for the cheating.

    Sadly, his newer videos feel fake, or scripted. This feeling isn’t helped by the fact that he literally cheated a speedrun. And when your entire channel hinges on the fact that all the content you make is skill based, a cheating scandal can quite literally delegitimization your entire channel… needless to say I have not watched him for nearly a year now

    I have been subbed to Dream since the Manhunt series started. I truly enjoy his content but try to not tune in to any of the crazy twitter/stan/doxx drama. Dream has revealed himself in the "behind the scenes/explanation" videos for the Manhunts that there are unspoken rules that has to be followed by the whole Manhunt team. A couple of examples:
    1) You aren't generally allowed to pull the same trick/trap twice
    2) Far from all recording attempts of Manhunts ever make it to RUclips as part of the series (e.g. if he dies within 5 minutes), leading to the next point...
    3) There is "fake" first reaction audio to some of the stunts Dream pulls = he splices in the original audio reaction from the hunters in an unpublished recording attempt when he does something for the first time to include their genuine reaction
    4) Masterful editing is involved to really involve the viewer and make the whole Manhunt really intense.
    I don't mind all this "trickery/manipulation" for views. He does it well.

    Not really supporting dream for faking the speed runs, but as far as the mine craft manhunts go, I dont really give a fuck if they are faked. They are entertaining. Just videos of friends trying to kill each other with hilarious moments and even some dramatic elements. Dream did some serious epic clutches with water buckets, jumping off cliffs, High IQ plays and traps for the hunters, and even outsmarting them in the most simple of ways. It is much less serious than a cheating world record. Truth be told, whether he cheated or not, def goes to show how much of a genius he really is.

    I remember watching his PewDiePie video and subbing but it wasn't until he started his manhunts when I really got into his content. During the covid lockdowns I was feeling super depressed and I didn't really have any friends so the Dream SMP was really the only thing keeping me sane. I loved the story (the beginning of the SMP had a way better plot but now it's completely incomprehensible,) and the other creators. I loved his manhunts and even if they are faked, I think are still super interesting. Of course his cheating made me upset but I like him for his in-game personality and relationships with other creators so I was willing to let things slide. I still have his merch and at the time was a HUGE fan, but with his large fanbase and the absolute wackos on twitter I stopped watching or being interested at all. It's actually sad how many people are deterred because of the toxic fanbase. I think I would be still super into Dream if it weren't for the stans blowing everything out of proportion and getting triggered at every little thing.
    Great video! Thank you!

    Although people might not realize this from just watching Dream's first manhunt video, but Wilbur Soot actually made that type a video before (it was like his viewers had to try to kill him before he won the game or something like that). Dream could have copied as Wilbur's video came out 4 or 5 months before Dream's video did.
    If Dream did copy Wilbur, unknowingly, he was the one who came up with the one of the most (if not the most) popular minecraft series to exist.

    Problem with Dream is, he's straddling the line between anonymous and social. He built his channel around his SMP (a social server that kind of requires you to be open and interactive with the rest of the players, especially when you're the creator of said server), while also desperately trying to hide his identity. While that would work, when you're trying to be the leader and the face of this popular group with that attitude, you're going to step in a minefield of controversy.
