      @@Kutaloono they’re still together but he was saying that for the past few years he feels like they can’t have a normal conversation or play games together without thinking about how he’s going to make content out of it and he just wants to enjoy time with his family without worrying about the channel at the same time

      ​@@KutalooBasically, it got to the point where even at a Christmas dinner he would talk about theories with his family. He just wants to relax. He could sell his channels to other people or he could keep them and upload like once every 3 months or so. It really depends how he wants it to play out. If I was him I'd still upload just once every couple of months.

I also stepped away from my career a few years ago to raise my kids and I will never, ever regret that. He’s doing an amazing thing for his family- good for him. His content is so amazing, and I’ve loved being able to watch it with my kids, so we can relate and bond. Same with your work, Charlie! So I am glad to hear you’ll be sticking around awhile longer.

    For the first 6 or 7 minutes of his goodbye video, I legit kept waiting for a punchline and figured he was just really good at acting because he used to be in theater. I found immense comfort in his Game Theorists and GTLive channels growing up so I can't say I'm surprised at how emotional this announcement made me. GT felt like a safe space for me to be a bit nerdy, to geek out over silly games and silly theories and have a blast doing so. It's truly the end of an era, and I suppose part of the reason I balled eyes out is because this made me realize how much time has passed, and how much I've grown up.

    Matpat practically raised me through a very dark period of my childhood. I used his GTLive streams to help me sleep, to distract me from pain, to help me laugh on a bad day, and to this day I use his videos to wind down after work or listen to to feel calm and happy while I drive. I’m going to miss him so so much. It really hurts to see him leave but I’m also really happy for him. I believe I’ve reached the age now where I’ve learnt (from him) how to make my own happiness, and for that I’m grateful. I wish him the absolute best and I’m so grateful I had such a good role model in my life for so many years.

    Mat always struck me as genuine, and I have probably only watched a video of his every couple of months. His energy, empathy and humor will be missed. Also: It's not just the catchphrases that will live on, he also established a template for video formats and had a direct link to the RUclips execs so it always felt like he's "our guy" on the inside and you could always feel he would get our grievances with the platform across. Enjoy life Mat.

      All these millennials announcing to leave the platform after hitting 35 is kinda cringe, the views are down so they come up with clout chasing videos like goodbye YT.
