MatPat going back to fix his time travel theory is just amazing and the 8-but theme at the end just brought me even more pure joy. Thank you MatPat for 10 amazing years on RUclips!
It's so insane that I discovered this channel at 11 years old and just thought it was so cool that someone thought so much about video games. Now, ten years later I'm about as old as Mat Pat was when he started this and I'm still watching despite just how much my life has changed.
Imagine if current MatPat sent this version of the video to younger MatPat, creating a grandfather paradox because younger MatPat felt bad about his level of cringe and prematurely gave up RUclips.
@@andrewjones9547 no it wouldn’t be bootstrap paradox because a bootstrap paradox would be a closed loop. Let’s say present matpatt gave this video to past matpatt which caused past matpatt to try and recreate it leading to the first episode of game theory then later present matpat went to recreate the episode - this would be a bootstrap paradox. There is a beginning and an end to this loop. The loop the user created was a grandfather paradox because it proposed that matpat would give up RUclips which would cause present matpat to NOT recreate the original episode and therefore he couldn’t send the footage to the past so therefore he would create the RUclips channel. - this is a grandfather paradox There is no end and no beginning to this loop. Hope this explained it well enough
You can tell he's starting to choke up when he's saying thank you to everyone. That means this man genuinely cares. So I'm just going to take this time to say thank YOU MatPat. I'm not exaggerating in the slightest when I say that Game, Film, and now Food Theory have literally changed my life for the better. So thank you MatPat. Thank you for 10 years of these videos.
As a european, I actually fell in love with matpat because he explained in both in miles per hour but also in km per hour. I just never had seen it before and it was really suprising and nice
@@fakename3010 Don't think you being american changes much. Most people, even Americans, won't argue against you. The reason we haven't switched isn't because we think imperial is better. It's a matter of if metric is so much better than metric that we should undergo the massive infrastructural, cultural , and educational changes required to switch. Well, that and the last time we attempted to switch, it didn't work out and led to confusion but that was before the popularization of the internet so it's neither here nor there.
Honestly I think you’re not giving yourself old enough credit. You used what you had and made it work. 10 years ago I was hooked on your channel and here I am, still hooked on all your stuff! I hope you are proud and honor your humble beginnings!
Same. I honestly am glad I was using Kotaku at the time cause I would not have seen the recommendation for this channel when it first launched the Chrono Trigger episode. Glad to see another 10 year user celebrating GT's anniversary!
See that's what I'm saying. I'll be the first to poke holes in his theories but I will always admire the work he put in just so i can be a nitpicky little bastard 🤣
Oh I hope after 279 years some of MatPat's son's son's son's son will be recording "310 years anniversary episode" with final answer ' "yes, it's possible, time machines are so easy to build at home"
The part at the end, where he goes into how he’s matured and how proud he is about that and the opportunities he’s had- seriously, very wholesome. You’re awesome, MatPat.
The 8-bit intro theme in the credits actually brought a tear to my eye. You've come so far MatPat, and I'm glad we could share the ride with you. You've changed not only the way I look at video games, but the world. Thank you for being a part of mine and so many other's lives, and I look foward to the years to come.
12:29 Man, I started to tear up. You're very welcome Mat. I started watching about 3-4 years ago, and honestly, I really enjoyed seeing this channel grow. I'm really glad to have been a part of that growth, even if it was the small role of a subscriber. God bless you, Matpat, as you continue to take this channel to greater heights.
MatPat isn’t just a content creator anymore. He feels more like a friend even though us, the viewers don’t even know him in person. We still get to see him grow as a person as we grow too, just separately. At it’s best, RUclips is a really special place, as shown by MatPat.
it's so crazy, I've been watching for ~5 years and in that time, I finished middle school and am about to finish high school. On top of that, we got to see Matpat mature as a person, we got to see him get married, have a kid, move states, get a cat, swap out his favorite drink for a lesser known one and we got to have him teach and entertain us for such a long time. Thank you *so* much Matpat for always trying your best to keep your audiences entertained and giving it your all. Thank you also to all the viewers who have been here supporting the channel, thank you editors, friends and family of Matpat for being there for him and the channel and as always, thanks for reading :)
Coming from a person who has watched every episode of game theory from kirby's epic yarm , yarn bombing it's gonna be sad seeing you leave and I'm gonna miss you
I remember back in the day when MatPat would talk about his "recording closet" and thinking it was so cool and I remember sitting in my closet voicing scenes from edits I made so I could be like him. Thanks MatPat for playing such a big role in my childhood.
As a writer, I loved this episode. It's just so important to look back on stuff you made and see how much you've grown and this really does highlight how far this channel's come from its infancy.
Do you guys have any plans for Little Nightmares theories? Not only is the universe eerie and tense, but the storyline is clear enough to be understood on a basic level, but looking deeper you realize there’s time loops, hidden lore in every corner, mysterious symbols and enemies, unanswered questions, “bad” endings, perfect to look into for a theory.
It's been a long and wonderful ride, thank you so much Matt Pat for sticking with game theory. On the side note if you're going to continue remastering older game theories, I have a suggestion, how about remastering and updating into the 2020s on how every video game is linked together. I was a really big fan of that game theory when it came out back in the day. In fact I still watch it time to time because it's such a unique theory.
Yeah I scrolled all the way down the videos one day looking for something and was surprised to see every single video has been kept, even those ones. It's pretty funny seeing how the whole thing started.
I remember stumbling onto this channel in 2011. This channel maybe had 10-15 episodes (maybe even less) and I was so intrigued and subbed to the channel, haven't looked back since! Thanks for the decade of entertainment MatPat!
Man, I've been watching since 2012 (and totally watched everything you had up by then). Your channel is proof that if you SLOOWWWWLY change no one will really even notice, and jump ship. Everything is so drastically different today, and I never noticed the change over time. :)
I’ve been following this channel since the Peach is Rosalina’s mother days and I’m so proud to call myself a theorist. Thank you MatPat and the whole theorist team. You guys are awesome.
Seeing as how just about every part of the Rosalina theory is objectively inaccurate, I was really hoping that if he ever revisited a theory, it would be that one.
GOSH THIS NEARLY BROUGHT ME TO TEARS AT THE PART WHere he got less animated and just *talked* to us as an audience, and got chills at the end. This was *so* good
He says he has been ruining our childhoods but I think he's given a lot of great memories as viewers....and seeing theories like these spices the game up more than the developers intended
@@iamjayrts25 Each cutback to his commentary is him more progressively on the verge of a nervous breakdown and laughing at his past self's conclusions like "oh you poor fool, you poor poor fool" In all fairness, we've all looked back at ourselves like that at some point.
The first Game Theory video I ever saw was the companion cube one. I was going through a Portal phase, and I thought it was the coolest thing. I'm so glad I stuck around all these years. Thanks for changing my view on so many things in stories, science, and video games. 😊
Hey MatPat, I just wanted to say, I can’t believe it’s been 10 years of Game Theory. I want to say thank you for everything you’ve done, I don’t know where we’d be without you. Thank you so much for the memories, I can’t wait to make more in the future!
I clicked on this link expecting to get rick rolled and instead found a loving matpat community in the linked videos comment section that just fulfilled my entire day, so thank you matchat for being the amazing people you are
Coolest part about you guys in my eyes: You can explain in a way that I actually understand! I had a test on my executive functioning a couple years ago and we found is was a 1/10. You guys can explain things that teachers can't and it just makes me feel like maybe, just maybe, there's hope for me. ♡ It's a miracle when something makes sense to me, so when I'm having a down day about my functioning, I come here to Game Theory, Film Theory and Food Theory to help me keep a goal on my sight! To prove to my teachers that no, my feelings are not in the way of my learning. I am a capable human being who can conquer her depression, anxiety and even autism, and you guys help me remind myself of that. So thank you for teaching me what literally no one else can!
Not sure when the stock photos were added, but matt on a podium is actually an edit of a picture he took with Ronnie (rip) and gaijin gumba ii believe, when he used to include little interactive annotations at the end of the video to analyze his viewers with voting cards that ultimately just led back to the channel but could be used as a primative voting system. The voting at the time was 'who has the best "thinker" face?' or something along those lines. Can't remember the video, but yeah, it was a cute picture from a convention, ii think, where all the members of team theorist at the time met up. jeez ii've been watching this channel for a while, huh?
Look, you can mature as a person and still do weird/goofy sh*t when you want to. You're just more careful in what you do and how you do it. Never stop having fun 👍
Matpat, you are probably the only reason I got deep into science snd physics. I still quote some of your science, so you may not see this, but you really made me enjoy learning and thinking
It’s so strange to think that this channel is 10 years old. I found this channel (like many) through the first FNAF theory and have been a loyal viewer ever since. In fact, I’m 90% sure that Game Theory was the first channel I subscribed to and has been the only channel I’ve consistently watched. I love this channel and I hope it continues to grow ❤️
It’s so ironic that you’re going back and remastering an episode about time travel, since it’s like you’re traveling back in time to look at how much you’ve improved
Huh, thought the grandfather paradox involved going back in time and making sure even though you killed you grandfather you still exist by becoming your own grandfather.
If you go back and kill your grand father, your present self should still be fine since matter cant be created nor destroyed, so you shouldn't be snapped out of existence...unless mother nature decides hits you with a heart attack or sumn. This idea can go many ways.
not going to lie, I was strangely tempted to tab out of the video at that exact moment. I wonder if it's just because it's a black screen and my mind associates black screens with ends of videos?
I cited one of these videos in a public speaking class a few years ago. I’ve been a fan since middle school, and I’m graduating college now. I’m so glad this channel is still running and matpat still likes what he does. So your welcome for being part of your growth, but thank you for being part of my childhood and my growth too.
@@ProGremlinPlayer He already has four channels - for whatever reason people always forget GT Live (probably because it doesn't have Theory in its name, but it does occupy the lower right corner of the Theorist Symbol).
What makes MatPat so great is he didn't change for the worse. He didn't leave. He didn't begin to do it solely for the money. He didn't change what he did for what was most popular. He stayed himself. He stayed doing what he did to the best of his and all those that help with Game Theory's abilities. Thank you to everyone who could make his channel grow to what it is today.
And what's more, he was always pretty family-friendly without being cringy or over the top about it. He's balanced and cool in a retro way. That means that he can get pretty far past the censors without much issue. Well, when they wanna play by their own rules.
"He didn't begin to do it solely for the money." Yeah, that's what the analytics coaching for other RUclips channels was for. "He didn't change what he did for what was most popular." He did, actually. He admitted that in this video, even, when he's talking about how RUclips analytics helped him improve the videos on the channel.
Personally I would say matpat has changed, as a person who started watching like 5 years ago, I slowly drifted, his theories used to be good, they all had solid evidence to back them up, yeah some video were wrong, but most of the time he got them right, now he just beats around the bush, in his godzilla vs kong video he doesn't look into their feats, he doesn't even do any math, yes its impossible for them to exist in the first place but that's not why we watch it, in his Did Dream Cheat video, he ends up saying that It didn't matter, that it was pointless, doesn't even give his full opinion, his comedy has gone bland, it's not the same as it used to be, he's changed
You're good for mentioning Ronnie, man. This show has become something that so many people love, and everyone that helped bring it to us is responsible. Rest in peace, Ronnie.
The fact that MatPat's first theory was about time travel and he went back to fix it is absolutely perfect
I’m just glad I got to hear the OG theme
Ha! I didn't think of that!
I dont think that was an accident. he knew. 10 years ago, he knew. im convinced he can travel in time, how else would he have all those theories

Man, I've been watching since 2012 (and totally watched everything you had up by then). Your channel is proof that if you SLOOWWWWLY change no one will really even notice, and jump ship. Everything is so drastically different today, and I never noticed the change over time. :)
I’ve been following this channel since the Peach is Rosalina’s mother days and I’m so proud to call myself a theorist. Thank you MatPat and the whole theorist team. You guys are awesome.
ruclips.net/video/JmQJ-xRNPvY/видео.html......
Seeing as how just about every part of the Rosalina theory is objectively inaccurate, I was really hoping that if he ever revisited a theory, it would be that one.
Same except since Mario is mental
i honestly forgot what got me into game theory
That one's my favorite
Even after 10 years the theme song is still a bop

Watching this after MatPat’s retirement announcement hits different 😭🫡❤️
He says he has been ruining our childhoods but I think he's given a lot of great memories as viewers....and seeing theories like these spices the game up more than the developers intended

The first Game Theory video I ever saw was the companion cube one. I was going through a Portal phase, and I thought it was the coolest thing. I'm so glad I stuck around all these years. Thanks for changing my view on so many things in stories, science, and video games. 😊
Hey MatPat, I just wanted to say, I can’t believe it’s been 10 years of Game Theory. I want to say thank you for everything you’ve done, I don’t know where we’d be without you. Thank you so much for the memories, I can’t wait to make more in the future!

Coolest part about you guys in my eyes: You can explain in a way that I actually understand! I had a test on my executive functioning a couple years ago and we found is was a 1/10. You guys can explain things that teachers can't and it just makes me feel like maybe, just maybe, there's hope for me. ♡ It's a miracle when something makes sense to me, so when I'm having a down day about my functioning, I come here to Game Theory, Film Theory and Food Theory to help me keep a goal on my sight! To prove to my teachers that no, my feelings are not in the way of my learning. I am a capable human being who can conquer her depression, anxiety and even autism, and you guys help me remind myself of that. So thank you for teaching me what literally no one else can!
What I’d like to know is when certain of Matt’s clip art people were introduced, like the random guy, and MatPat on a podium
Not sure when the stock photos were added, but matt on a podium is actually an edit of a picture he took with Ronnie (rip) and gaijin gumba ii believe, when he used to include little interactive annotations at the end of the video to analyze his viewers with voting cards that ultimately just led back to the channel but could be used as a primative voting system. The voting at the time was 'who has the best "thinker" face?' or something along those lines. Can't remember the video, but yeah, it was a cute picture from a convention, ii think, where all the members of team theorist at the time met up.
jeez ii've been watching this channel for a while, huh?
MatPat fixing his own theory is very relatable

It’s so strange to think that this channel is 10 years old. I found this channel (like many) through the first FNAF theory and have been a loyal viewer ever since. In fact, I’m 90% sure that Game Theory was the first channel I subscribed to and has been the only channel I’ve consistently watched. I love this channel and I hope it continues to grow ❤️
@Shika Bika what?
Thank you matpat, thank you for running our childhood since 2011
It’s so ironic that you’re going back and remastering an episode about time travel, since it’s like you’re traveling back in time to look at how much you’ve improved
No matter how many new theories you do, please never stop using that static picture as your avatar
I'd be fine with him using a normal camera for food theory though. Unless it was an especially details orientated episode, with no eating.
@dveřecz That's the real matpat, the "real" matpat is just a deepfake
Huh, thought the grandfather paradox involved going back in time and making sure even though you killed you grandfather you still exist by becoming your own grandfather.
Yuck...
If you go back and kill your grand father, your present self should still be fine since matter cant be created nor destroyed, so you shouldn't be snapped out of existence...unless mother nature decides hits you with a heart attack or sumn.
This idea can go many ways.

not going to lie, I was strangely tempted to tab out of the video at that exact moment. I wonder if it's just because it's a black screen and my mind associates black screens with ends of videos?

I cited one of these videos in a public speaking class a few years ago. I’ve been a fan since middle school, and I’m graduating college now.

I miss those old cringy days. World was wild !!
why is this accurate
What makes MatPat so great is he didn't change for the worse. He didn't leave. He didn't begin to do it solely for the money. He didn't change what he did for what was most popular. He stayed himself. He stayed doing what he did to the best of his and all those that help with Game Theory's abilities. Thank you to everyone who could make his channel grow to what it is today.
And what's more, he was always pretty family-friendly without being cringy or over the top about it. He's balanced and cool in a retro way. That means that he can get pretty far past the censors without much issue. Well, when they wanna play by their own rules.
"He didn't begin to do it solely for the money." Yeah, that's what the analytics coaching for other RUclips channels was for. "He didn't change what he did for what was most popular." He did, actually. He admitted that in this video, even, when he's talking about how RUclips analytics helped him improve the videos on the channel.
@@nick012000 In a sense, yeah. I mean it more-so on a way of changing his content to cater to all the trending topics.
@@YillanTheVillain Some of it does.
Personally I would say matpat has changed, as a person who started watching like 5 years ago, I slowly drifted, his theories used to be good, they all had solid evidence to back them up, yeah some video were wrong, but most of the time he got them right, now he just beats around the bush, in his godzilla vs kong video he doesn't look into their feats, he doesn't even do any math, yes its impossible for them to exist in the first place but that's not why we watch it, in his Did Dream Cheat video, he ends up saying that It didn't matter, that it was pointless, doesn't even give his full opinion, his comedy has gone bland, it's not the same as it used to be, he's changed
