I once told a friend about an old animated film, that one famous director spent many years and tens of millions of dollars on, only for it to die in production hell, because of the perfection the director demanded. The friend then said that they should have simply spent more money and time on the movie. He then questioned why all animation shouldn't be 60 FPS, if you love your job you would want to make it as good as possible, right? I love you and your videos, Phillip, but I gotta be honest - as a layman, I never really notice the difference between the videos you spent 4 hours or a month on, even though I watch 99% of them. If I were to give an objective, third person view of your content and why I like it - it's that I like seeing you talk on random topics I never thought about, but seem interesting in retrospect, you make the most mundane stuff interesting to listen to. I'm not into graphics cards or processors, but hearing you talk about this stuff is educational. (maybe I just like British accents, I watched the entirety of Hilda because everyone had cute accents) So I personally just want to see you passionately talk about random stuff you find interesting, making me find it interesting in turn. Don't know if this helped, but I wish you well anyway.
@@CorkScrewDood Yeah, I think that's it. I might not have described the production issues entirely correctly, it was a long time ago, didn't even remember the movie's name.
as for someone who is into processors and graphics cards, i like watching phils take on them, because it's different, interesting, and refreshing. It's much more in line with my taste of hardware than anything. It's also just generally very interesting.
Sounds like Thief and the Cobbler, animated almost entirely on ones (so at 24 FPS, not 60), and the painstaking agony those poor animators went through really shows in the Recobbled Cut. Which is a shame, because the movie's plot and pacing isn't that good, but it's still worth a watch.
There is a Russian fellow, Yuri Norstein, who has taken 42 years to make an animated film called Шине́ль (the Overcoat). According to Wikipedia he finished 30 out of planned 65 minutes as of 2007. His animations are absolutely beautiful but they are so intricately made they take an absurd amount of time. Apparently he also is quite selective on who he accepts money from, only taking a few boxes of lightbulbs from Aardman (people who made Wallace and Gromit, Chicken Run, ETC.)
love you philip. Your channels are a monolith of content. I dont watch every upload but typically ill sometimes see a video in my notifications and I'll watch it and it'll send me down a path of watching tons of videos I've missed. Hope to keep seeing you pop up in my notifications periodically for years.
I'm happy you don't see the Audio Crime 2 video as a failure, despite the low numbers. I find your best videos to be the ones where you just talk passionately about something you made and this one was absolutely no exception.
The music in Audio Crime 2 will be used all over the place, I didn't make it for youtube and don't judge its success from the youtube views. It was a great success for me to get that out, I haven't felt 'weighed down' by these unfinished songs, but now they're out I feel lighter
All I can say is that your videos are my favourite on RUclips. For some reason the style of the videos gives me an odd feeling of nostalgia which I deeply crave. Never change
the music is probably what gives me that feeling, although i suppose at this point i've just been watching these channels for long enough so that they're nostalgic by their very existence
The joy of the yearly Klik Empire Analysis for me is so unprecedented that I have returned to the comment section once again to say thank you for this entertaining and informative introspection.
I personally switched from watching 3kliksphillip because I liked counter strike, to watching 2kliks and kliks original flavor, because I like you. I care more about some niche thing you noticed than a cs2 map update.
Yea I have moved away from cs but philip hasnt which is fair cus he uses it as his medium, but I am much less inclined to watch updates about a game I don’t play anymore.
hell yeah brother, i owe a lot to phillip and his videos for helping me become a more organized and useful person this year. his video on the hedonistic treadmil really changed my perspective on my work and my hobbies and made me want to work on it to be better overall. also now i supersample the games that i play just for that added definition! thanks phillip!
When I moved to the U.S back in 2014 (I was in middle school), I couldn't speak a word of English. However I did love CS, and would try my best to practice my english playing it. Part of it was watching 3kliksphilip videos to practice my english, so all the 3 channels are very especial to me. As you have said on the video, there is def a difference in between a video that is sucessfully "professionally" and successfully "artistic" I would say. I love when you cover different games, that Hitman video was one of my favorites when it comes to different games for example, and I feel like the people who did watch really enjoyed it. But sadly, views are views on a video, and the "quality" of the view isn't what puts the bread on your table at the end of the day. I hope you can still make really good quality videos on different games on the future, even if it's a lower quantity so it doesn't take as much time, especially since I don't play CS anymore as much, so I've been enjyoing 2kliks videos more hehe. Anyways, happy New Years Philip!
Was very excited for this. And the announcement from Tom was definitely a shock, I will personally miss him. There’s very few British channels I actually like on this website.
Please don't try too much to change what and how you're doing just to grow. I really love your refreshing videos that are different from most else on RUclips. There is already not enough originality on RUclips. I will keep insta-kliking every of your videos that come up and even though your videos are sometimes weird and chaotic, I'm never disappointed!
I think out of every video you've made, the one I adore the most is the video on you having a walk at night through your neighbourhood. For a while, it did a lot to motivate me to do so - I would even bring my father along to explore nooks and crannies never before seen by either of us. Thank you for your years on this platform, I hope you get the fulfillment you seek in 2024
I watch every single video of yours. And when i say "every single", I really do mean every. single. video. (1)kliks, 2kliks, 3kliks, i watch them all. I've probably watched 9/10 videos you've uploaded since 2015. I've even chatted with your dad on twitter about his music and listened to each of his albums. I was 11 years old when you uploaded the game making journey, and that inspired me to start making my own games, which was the start of me using a computer to do stuff i enjoy. Thanks for that. 2kliks has been my favourite channel this year. The graphics card videos I love, especially those about intel arc. I thought your videos on starfield and hogwarts legacy were good too (especially the latter) but it's a shame that starfield isn't the game I wanted it to be. My favourite videos on 2kliks is about graphical stuff, HDR, DLSS, aswell as AI. For 2024 i'd love for you to make even more videos about/using stablediffusion, maybe even tutorials, but I don't know if you like SD that much. But, for example, a video on Midjourney V5 vs V6, or stable diffusion v1.5 vs SDXL 1.0, that would be interesting to me even though I use the software every day and already know a bit about these topics. 3kliks hasn't been disappointing, I especially love all the videos on CS2. But I can't say that I'm not shocked (or perhaps, a little disappointed) that the old-school experiment-type videos didn't come back. I expected videos on smokes, where you designed maps in Hammer2 and tested how the smokes reacted in different environments. Do they go through doors? How do they work underwater? How do they work in tunnels? I expected more videos on hammer2 too. But the vids on CS2 have been interesting and I'm glad to see the videos doing quite well. I know exactly how you feel about passion projects vs success. I'm currently studying engineering. It's okay, I don't hate it but I don't like math too much and have no real interest in becoming a project leader (likely my job post-graduation). I chose it because the money is good. If I were to follow my passion I would study graphic design, in which there is little money to be had. Luckily I'll major in machine learning, which is right up my alley with the AI stuff, but my bachelor is of little interest to me. My only motivation is knowing what's ahead (machine learning) and just focusing on getting good enough grades to have an exchange year in Kyoto. I don't know why I started ranting about myself, but at least you know that you are not alone in your struggles. i didn't mean this comment to be a "here's what i liked and disliked and here's what you should do in 2024" because whatever you upload I will watch. You and I have a lot of similar hobbies, perhaps because my early years of learning technology were so heavily influenced by what you uploaded. Like I said, I tried making games because you did. I tried making csgo maps too, and music, I even tried learning excel when i was weirdly young to learn excel just because I wanted to make graphs like you did. And so, each video you upload either is interesting to me or will likely become interesting to me. For example, I had not used AI to make pictures before I started seeing your AI videos. Now that is literally all I do when I'm not studying. So, all in all, thank you Philip for these 9-something years of content. You've thoroughly changed how I am as a person and I honestly have no clue what I would be doing today if it wasn't for your videos.
You predicted the smoke video I want 3kliksphilip to make! I'm not sure why I haven't done it just yet. Seemed too... niche? But I can't wait to fill silly shaped places with smoke. You sound like some one who enjoys everything I make which I greatly appreciate, and I'll try to make MORE for you to watch this year :)
I come to Kliksphilip's comment section for the most nichely-wholesome comments on RUclips. It does not disappoint! To offer some unsolicited advice to a stranger on the internet - don't underestimate the diversity of roles open to you with an engineering degree! I'm sure you'll figure out something you enjoy, be that in machine learning or elsewhere. Until you see the day-to-day of a range of actual jobs (first hand or around you) it is really difficult to judge whether you would actually enjoy them or not.
@@armadillitoThank you dearly for the tips! ...One year later. Honestly, Ive just found a dream job in esports (working part-time) and i might have the possibility to continue with it after graduation. The future seems bright!
I do have to say. Every year I watch these I always realise how many of your videos I watched and rewatched. With most RUclipsrs I watch them in cycles and sometimes just don't want to watch them at all. Not with you tho, I might not watch every single video of your's, but I've still been watching you continuously for years. You've inspired me to start a RUclips channel were I make high quality videos. Not sh*tposts like my commenting channel lmao.
Never have i ever enjoyed listening to a youtuber just talk about themselves like i have with your channels, Philip. At the end of the day, i just figure you enjoying what you're doing is better then anything. Keep making whatever you want to make, and i'll keep showing up. GG
I think Beyond the Edge in Starfield was the most impactful video I’ve ever watched from you. Similarly when I was playing the game I felt a bit down about it. However your exploration of the planet map disproved some assumptions that I had on how the map generation worked which actually got me much more engaged in the title. That video has inspired a few hundred hours of gameplay that I have enjoyed very much. I thank you for that!
Thanks! I never know how much of the adventure a video conveys but there's something very 'full' for me about venturing out into the wilderness with a goal I've given myself, and I come across sights and discoveries where I wish there was somebody stood behind me for me to be able to share in them with :) Thanks for being that person
You may have seen me write similar comments before, but you are actually a part of my life, similarly to how an author whose books I always read is. I first saw a video of yours at 13 and have been watching you since for your humor and creativity and for the occasional insights into your life. I have seen you grow as a creator as I have grown into an adult and I think that sort of relationship is so cool!
I found your channel(s) this year before starting playing counter strike myself and I must say, I love them. It's a breath of fresh air to see someone like you covering other, more technical topics of the game and its graphics rather than exclusively shitting on valve for not immediately making a perfect game and covering all these other topics everyone else covers already. As a commenter said on atomic amnesia: I've never seen anyone so hardworking and willing to keep 3 channels going all by themself while also making music and what not. You're an incredibly talented person and I must say that you've inspired me and influenced the few videos I make on my channel including writing and editing. You have incredible insight and seem so down to earth and relateable despite being nearly 20 years older than me, not calling you old here of course! I've always been interested in videogame technicality and history so your channels provide me with just that itch, and kliksphilip's a great bonus. Although you don't seem to currently be at the height of your career, just know that your videos still inspire and entertain many folks. Love your videos Philip, here's to a good 2024 !
Regardless of the statistics and the drama, thank you for the videos this year ❤💕 Some of your best content has come out this year! Vertical slice was my favourite ❤️
I really hope you wont lose your love for youtube and for creating Videos ... I subbed to all 3 of your Channels and watched most Videos over the last few years... you are a truly unique content creator and it is really nice seeing your youtube journey! Also I have met you at ESL One in Cologne like 6 or 7 years ago and you were such a kind Person
I've starting watching you since your Hammer map tutorials. You've been a constant "anchor point" in my youtube watching and in an odd way, my life. Just wanted to say how much I appreciate everything you do and how transparent an pationate you are about what you do. Truely wishing you all the best and a good 2024!
I like watching these and hearing you talk about your experiences. You are very knowledgeable about it all and has such a unique experience with 3 channels all by yourself. Heres to 2024!
A new year is not a new year without a Klik Empire Analysis for sure! Happy new year and good luck with 2024, RUclips has sure become a harsh and different place :\
What I enjoy about ur content is the random and at times out of context humour, the informativeness of an analysis of some kind, and the existential trips down a rabbit hole of thought. Even if these things are simply touched on in just a slice of life of some trip, walk, or outing you went on. I like the way you think I suppose, so however you express that is fine by me. All the best Philip, may you never return to a daily grind.
Been watching for... I don't even know, coming up on a full decade for sure. Your content is something I seriously look forward to every year. It stands out from crowd, and always has, you have a very unique style. Here's to 2024 and whatever may come! 🎉
Your voice is calming to me to just have on in the background. I think i love your almost child-like wonder that leads you to answering questions that many of us would have, but then bat away as they would be unfeasable to answer, and often leading you down an almost spectrumy level of detailed research and presenting it all in a very entertaining way.
the office fire extinguisher video was my favourite of yours this year, there's a serious market on youtube for extensive deep dives into seemingly minor or uninteresting subjects.
I've been subscribed for years and I didn't get most of your videos in my feed this year. I would've watched them had I gotten them there. Wonder how many others can relate. Suppose I should've hit the bell, will correct that mistake now. Off to watch all of them now!
Thanks phillip for 2023, i watch some of your video because i find it very unique tone wise, your videos just feels quirky and relaxing in some way, which one of the reason why i watch your videos, it's very unique to me. I appreciate your video despite having low count view. It's unfortunate that your's high effort video doesn't get the attention that it deserve. That said, Thanks Phillip, you're one of the best youtube channel i've watch this year.
I enjoy your content in all forms ! Thank you for your dedication to detail and I hope 2024 is a wonderful year for your professional and personal life !
I always love watching your content! It's often a must click when it shows up on my feed. However, over the last year I watched RUclips a lot less due to being busy which caused me to miss a few videos. I definitely want to thank you for making the content you make. It's always a great time investment to watch them and I love the information I get from them. It's a unique view at games from other channels and that makes it fun to watch. Thank you Philip!
this year totally had some banger videos, a couple of my all time favorites without a doubt. i wish i had some good advice or words of wisdom to share but i just enjoy the content and i hope u don't stop uploading
I love you'r out of the box thinking for some videos and how detailed every video on you'r 3kliks truely is. As time went on i began to love the your passion itself for example from the new source engine. Becouse it's amazing how sometimes previous though uninteresting videotitles can be so unbelievably interesting by just how passionate a person is by making the video, becouse it seems like you're explaining things and find new stuff out for yourself. I am very thankful for your content and i appreciate it a lot!
Always enjoy seeing your content across all channels when they come out. As you say they are often made to be educational but you always manage to make them entertaining and in many ways humourous which together is what makes your channel amazing.
I just sant to say that i have enjoyed your videos so much over the years. You’re the one RUclipsr I always watch. If it has been a while since you’ve uploaded, I notice, and search all of your channels to investigate. You are a big part of my RUclips. Whatever that means. I struggle to fully articulate the thoughts I have and what I really want to say to you, and how much I just enjoy everything you put out. I will always watch your videos and you will always entertain me. Atleast..
Amazing. Keep up the great work. Most transparent and thoughtful creator that doesn't succumb to the pressure of social trends or align their content to the momentary wants of the viewers. Even then, as you have emphasized it yourself, you create such content more as an experiment or a learning exercise. Very respectable and honest.
I liked your videos for years and still do. I'm happy about every video in my feed even when i'm not interested in every topic you cover. Small creators are important, keep going please.
I think that Audio Crime was a massive success because those who wanted that level of content, Really enjoyed it! I loved it and already of all the songs on spotify and love it. You are such a wonderful youtuber and don't let youtube tell you otherwise.
i’ve been silently lurking and consuming ur content for nearly a decade at this point. just wanna say i love you and your content! i’ll always support you no matter what!!
I just sorta started watching your videos in the last third of the year. I really enjoy listening to you go super in depth on random things even if I just have it on while I execute tasks. I usually klik on your videos whenever I see them on my homepage and I’ll go back and watch the 3 videos you mentioned on 2klik. I am usually a lurker but I guess it might be nice to hear from a silent majority person rather than a small upset group once in a while :-)
I almost never miss a video of yours because I find the combination of your voice overs and the music you (and your dad I think?) made to be really relaxing. It doesn't hurt that most of the things you cover I already have at least a passing interest in, but even if you make a video about something I'm not that interested in I'm likely to click on it because it just feels wrong to miss any videos from you at this point. I think I've been watching since 2016 if I remember correctly.
I've always semi watched your channel, but this year I've watched almost every kliksphilips video you've released! It's become a comfort thing for me. Love your stuff, and really liked the random topics video you made! Really interesting idea
I literally didn't even realise you had more channels until today. I just watched 2kliks and was contempt. But this has 'opened my world' massively and I subscribed to them all lol
Incredible as per usual, quality content will always stand the test of time. The fact that you are so reflective and mindful shows your commitment to this.
Been watching you since the Bat Sweeper development videos, always hyped for more behind the scenes on game development. Thanks for all the great content trough the years and keep goin!
i used to listen to your videos to get through my 8th grade english class. now i’m going into 12th grade and i’m so grateful for the influence your videos has had on me throughout the years. i always have and always will appreciate the content you make; take care of yourself
I think RUclips literally hasn’t shown me a single video from you in 2023. I’m gonna ring the bell cause I haven’t see you in ages. Also, I’m excited to hear your album is out! I’m gonna listen to it! On behalf of the LGBT+ community, you didn’t deserve that. I refuse to support anything JK Rolling profits off. But you shouldn’t be harassed for liking it either.
Every time you release one of these videos is when it finally hits me that another year has passed, even though it feels like I just watched the last one. I don't have any input or suggestions to offer, so I'll just say I've enjoyed what you've put out this year.
I haven’t really watched this channel that often until this year when I found myself waiting for videos to come out. Found your channels becoming some of my favorites not only because of topics but just the way the content is made, I could watch an analysis of paint drying by you. Sad to see youtube making the game tougher to individuals who’s videos aren’t company projects but rather solo projects with personality. Hope 2024 is good year for you.
your channels are a catalogue where everyone can find something to enjoy. I love listening your ramblings on random topics with your music,it brings me a sense of calm. On another note i would watch the hitman video but right now playing through it and don't want to spoil the game for myself
I love these videos so much. Yearly tradition that i love. Growing up over these past years with your channels have been amazing. I am 20 now and have been watching for atleast 5 years (i think). My favorite comfort youtuber that I always return to. Every upload of yours is a treat. I dont even play CS anymore and I still watch 3kliksphilip hhaha.
I usually comment to throw my opinion into the ring on these videos of yours, but I think you got everything exactly right this time. I hope you manage to balance things out, and that you have a fruitful year ahead because I enjoy your videos :)
Thank you Phillip for 2023! I really appreciate your effort into making those videos, it such a thing that great to watch. It's a shame that you're high effort video doesn't get the amount of view that it deserved. For that being said. Again. Thank you Phillip ❤
Personally, and I dunno if this comment will be useful or not, my favorite videos of yours are the ones where you just...talk. Talk about yourself. Talk about your life. The video where you talked about taking walks every day is one of my favorites of all time. I may have started watching your videos for your CS content, but I grew to enjoy listening to the person behind the videos as well. I'm not sure how well these videos do in the grand scheme of things, but I personally enjoy hearing about your history.
Something that I've always appreciated, even if this is minor and doesn't translate to views or youtubing success, is the amount of honesty and transparency you put out and how you thoroughly describe your state of mind at this moment in time. I find it very valuable and so... Human. Specially in the landscape that the Internet finds itself in. What you do is very rare and barely seen anymore. I hope that whatever endeavors you choose to partake in going forward (RUclips or not) you carry the same amount of heart, honesty and passion you always have shown to have within. Thank you Mr Kliks!! :D
At the end of the video I noticed how long ago some of the videos you show were uploaded. Specifically the ones uploaded 6 years ago, which I remember watching when they came out. It really does not feel like I watched those 6 years ago, but here we are. I can't believe I've been watching for so long.
I love this channel because of your off beat insights with your opinionated persona you are, with the little and big reflexions you do in each video. I watched every covid video for that reason. Your commentary is Gold.
Reading other comments and realized that I’ve been watching your videos since I was 10 or 11 and now I’m about to graduate high school. I’ve watched almost every single one of your videos from each channel since I’ve subscribed.
and please stay glass half full I very much appreciate the videos you put out, regardless of type, lenght or content, im here for you, not specificly the topics you cover. Stay juggling
this channel in particular is the one I love the most, as it's the most YOU one. I loved your videos on covid and on seeing places in UK. as a fresh immigrant I find it easier to accommodate thanks to your content. I can't wait to see more of these, you are one of the most interesting and inspirational people I know of - the dedication to produce top tier content and the variety of it is just impressive. thank you
RUclips is definitely shifting, and I completely understand why you might have to shift your content to adapt. But I just wanted to say how much I've enjoyed your videos and music over the years. They genuinely hold a close place to me, and regardless of what happens in the future that will always remain.
I believe I discovered your 3kliksphilip channel in 2019 before shortly after finding the second and third because of my growing interest with not only cs:go but computers and graphics. Always had a pleasure watching your content, from the technical aspects of things to all the really silly topics. Im here for it all. I don't think I've commented on one of your videos yet until now. Anyways, love you kliky philips. Have a great 2024!
14:47 don't worry kliksphilip, we do understand, the minimal change we had of having the video segmented into parts again made less of a negative impact for us than it had positive impact for your channel, all we had to do was click off if it was something we'd already seen. Seeing as you've had struggle with youtube, I don't think we'd mind what you had to do as long as you remain passionate about your channel, that's why I watch your channels. I don't know that much about computer components and I'm not that interested in Counter Strike usually, but the way you talk about it (mixed with the music choice) always manages to engage me and have genuine intrigue. Thanks for another year of content. (also nice Caboosing inclusion at 15:11, this channel wouldn't be the same without Caboosing)
Ive been watching your channel for almost 10 years, please keep up the good work man would love to see you make more videos even if they are lesser quality/shorter. Just with i could see more content from you.
Hello kliksphilip. I think you are one of the most unique creators I subscribe to. I watch almost all your videos across your 3 channels. Thanks for the content. Keep it up in 2024. Your work matters and your fans enjoy it no matter the topic. Thanks 🙏
❤ happy new year, loved the video, always enjoy your content on all channels. Looking forward to the next! Continue to enjoy your content and in time the era of business on youtube will pass and the creators will once again push back to more loving content for passion not money. 🎉
Hey Philip, thank you for the year 2023 and for the entertainment you've given us. I personally don't really care about CS2 the game, so I am one of those viewers who watch mainly your niche videos on 2kliksphilip or this channel. If it helps, I am a viewer who likes videos about the technical aspects of CS2 and the Source 2 engine rather than playing the game and that's my reason for still watching a few 3kliks videos. But I think I've seen almost every 2kliks video just for the fact that it's intereseting to me, the same way it is to you. For example, I again don't really care about Starfield as I don't think I would play it, but I am fascinated by the world generation and you did a great job covering it. Lastly, I have also seen every video on this channel, because apart from the technical topics, I like you as a person and your insights into your personal life make me compare your opinions with mine. As you mentioned, today's RUclips is flooded with companies and studios making content, so having you still around helps me appreciate RUclips the way I did 10 years ago, when I started watching you in my teenage years. So, thanks again and good luck in 2024!
I once told a friend about an old animated film, that one famous director spent many years and tens of millions of dollars on, only for it to die in production hell, because of the perfection the director demanded. The friend then said that they should have simply spent more money and time on the movie. He then questioned why all animation shouldn't be 60 FPS, if you love your job you would want to make it as good as possible, right?
I love you and your videos, Phillip, but I gotta be honest - as a layman, I never really notice the difference between the videos you spent 4 hours or a month on, even though I watch 99% of them. If I were to give an objective, third person view of your content and why I like it - it's that I like seeing you talk on random topics I never thought about, but seem interesting in retrospect, you make the most mundane stuff interesting to listen to. I'm not into graphics cards or processors, but hearing you talk about this stuff is educational. (maybe I just like British accents, I watched the entirety of Hilda because everyone had cute accents)
So I personally just want to see you passionately talk about random stuff you find interesting, making me find it interesting in turn. Don't know if this helped, but I wish you well anyway.
Was this that film that turned into the Thief and the Cobbler?
@@CorkScrewDood
Yeah, I think that's it. I might not have described the production issues entirely correctly, it was a long time ago, didn't even remember the movie's name.
as for someone who is into processors and graphics cards, i like watching phils take on them, because it's different, interesting, and refreshing. It's much more in line with my taste of hardware than anything.
It's also just generally very interesting.
Sounds like Thief and the Cobbler, animated almost entirely on ones (so at 24 FPS, not 60), and the painstaking agony those poor animators went through really shows in the Recobbled Cut. Which is a shame, because the movie's plot and pacing isn't that good, but it's still worth a watch.
There is a Russian fellow, Yuri Norstein, who has taken 42 years to make an animated film called Шине́ль (the Overcoat). According to Wikipedia he finished 30 out of planned 65 minutes as of 2007. His animations are absolutely beautiful but they are so intricately made they take an absurd amount of time.
Apparently he also is quite selective on who he accepts money from, only taking a few boxes of lightbulbs from Aardman (people who made Wallace and Gromit, Chicken Run, ETC.)
love you philip. Your channels are a monolith of content. I dont watch every upload but typically ill sometimes see a video in my notifications and I'll watch it and it'll send me down a path of watching tons of videos I've missed. Hope to keep seeing you pop up in my notifications periodically for years.
Dude 100% the same. Every now and then I'll get a notification, and go down the spiral of binge watching his videos for like 1 hour
The "content" is confusing. What's the theme? Rants and vlogs?
literally me... one of the first things i ever bought online is his csgo music kit
@@ruskyhusky69 No hate to you, but its not "bench" but rather "binge". Have a great day and hope this will be helpful some day! :3
@@LotusTheWise thanks man, I fixed it. You have a good one too!
I'm happy you don't see the Audio Crime 2 video as a failure, despite the low numbers. I find your best videos to be the ones where you just talk passionately about something you made and this one was absolutely no exception.
The music in Audio Crime 2 will be used all over the place, I didn't make it for youtube and don't judge its success from the youtube views. It was a great success for me to get that out, I haven't felt 'weighed down' by these unfinished songs, but now they're out I feel lighter
@@kliksphilip That's beautiful, man. I'm really really happy for you to feel that burden lifted; the burden of incompletion.
What I want from the kliks: Klik3:high effort cs2 patch notes videos. Klik2: Digital foundry but good. Klik 1: How to eat like Philip
@@Heyheyhey0475I’m in for the how to sleep like Phil but I can see where you’re coming from
@@kliksphilip they are still amazing and I still catch myself listening to 1HP from time to time
All I can say is that your videos are my favourite on RUclips. For some reason the style of the videos gives me an odd feeling of nostalgia which I deeply crave. Never change
the music is probably what gives me that feeling, although i suppose at this point i've just been watching these channels for long enough so that they're nostalgic by their very existence
The joy of the yearly Klik Empire Analysis for me is so unprecedented that I have returned to the comment section once again to say thank you for this entertaining and informative introspection.
Your videos are very insightful. I hope to one day reach your level of self reflection.
I personally switched from watching 3kliksphillip because I liked counter strike, to watching 2kliks and kliks original flavor, because I like you. I care more about some niche thing you noticed than a cs2 map update.
Yea I have moved away from cs but philip hasnt which is fair cus he uses it as his medium, but I am much less inclined to watch updates about a game I don’t play anymore.
Same for me. I like his interests and way he talks about his life! :)
hell yeah brother, i owe a lot to phillip and his videos for helping me become a more organized and useful person this year. his video on the hedonistic treadmil really changed my perspective on my work and my hobbies and made me want to work on it to be better overall. also now i supersample the games that i play just for that added definition! thanks phillip!
When I moved to the U.S back in 2014 (I was in middle school), I couldn't speak a word of English. However I did love CS, and would try my best to practice my english playing it. Part of it was watching 3kliksphilip videos to practice my english, so all the 3 channels are very especial to me. As you have said on the video, there is def a difference in between a video that is sucessfully "professionally" and successfully "artistic" I would say. I love when you cover different games, that Hitman video was one of my favorites when it comes to different games for example, and I feel like the people who did watch really enjoyed it. But sadly, views are views on a video, and the "quality" of the view isn't what puts the bread on your table at the end of the day. I hope you can still make really good quality videos on different games on the future, even if it's a lower quantity so it doesn't take as much time, especially since I don't play CS anymore as much, so I've been enjyoing 2kliks videos more hehe. Anyways, happy New Years Philip!
the real question is can you pronounce "hell of a lot of"?
Was very excited for this. And the announcement from Tom was definitely a shock, I will personally miss him.
There’s very few British channels I actually like on this website.
So cool to see that both Pilps and I are kliksphilip fans haha
He's not going anywhere, he's just uploading less frequently on his main channel and is still doing other projects!!!
Tom literally warned everyone a year prior that he was gonna stop on 2024
Tom is still on his lateral podcast if you want to keep listening to him
Please don't try too much to change what and how you're doing just to grow. I really love your refreshing videos that are different from most else on RUclips. There is already not enough originality on RUclips. I will keep insta-kliking every of your videos that come up and even though your videos are sometimes weird and chaotic, I'm never disappointed!
I think out of every video you've made, the one I adore the most is the video on you having a walk at night through your neighbourhood. For a while, it did a lot to motivate me to do so - I would even bring my father along to explore nooks and crannies never before seen by either of us. Thank you for your years on this platform, I hope you get the fulfillment you seek in 2024
That video is pure magic
I must've watched that video a million times by now. It's so comforting
No matter what you put out, it's always entertaining. I hope you stick around for at least another few years.
I watch every single video of yours. And when i say "every single", I really do mean every. single. video. (1)kliks, 2kliks, 3kliks, i watch them all. I've probably watched 9/10 videos you've uploaded since 2015. I've even chatted with your dad on twitter about his music and listened to each of his albums. I was 11 years old when you uploaded the game making journey, and that inspired me to start making my own games, which was the start of me using a computer to do stuff i enjoy. Thanks for that.
2kliks has been my favourite channel this year. The graphics card videos I love, especially those about intel arc. I thought your videos on starfield and hogwarts legacy were good too (especially the latter) but it's a shame that starfield isn't the game I wanted it to be. My favourite videos on 2kliks is about graphical stuff, HDR, DLSS, aswell as AI. For 2024 i'd love for you to make even more videos about/using stablediffusion, maybe even tutorials, but I don't know if you like SD that much. But, for example, a video on Midjourney V5 vs V6, or stable diffusion v1.5 vs SDXL 1.0, that would be interesting to me even though I use the software every day and already know a bit about these topics.
3kliks hasn't been disappointing, I especially love all the videos on CS2. But I can't say that I'm not shocked (or perhaps, a little disappointed) that the old-school experiment-type videos didn't come back. I expected videos on smokes, where you designed maps in Hammer2 and tested how the smokes reacted in different environments. Do they go through doors? How do they work underwater? How do they work in tunnels? I expected more videos on hammer2 too. But the vids on CS2 have been interesting and I'm glad to see the videos doing quite well.
I know exactly how you feel about passion projects vs success. I'm currently studying engineering. It's okay, I don't hate it but I don't like math too much and have no real interest in becoming a project leader (likely my job post-graduation). I chose it because the money is good. If I were to follow my passion I would study graphic design, in which there is little money to be had. Luckily I'll major in machine learning, which is right up my alley with the AI stuff, but my bachelor is of little interest to me. My only motivation is knowing what's ahead (machine learning) and just focusing on getting good enough grades to have an exchange year in Kyoto. I don't know why I started ranting about myself, but at least you know that you are not alone in your struggles.
i didn't mean this comment to be a "here's what i liked and disliked and here's what you should do in 2024" because whatever you upload I will watch. You and I have a lot of similar hobbies, perhaps because my early years of learning technology were so heavily influenced by what you uploaded. Like I said, I tried making games because you did. I tried making csgo maps too, and music, I even tried learning excel when i was weirdly young to learn excel just because I wanted to make graphs like you did. And so, each video you upload either is interesting to me or will likely become interesting to me. For example, I had not used AI to make pictures before I started seeing your AI videos. Now that is literally all I do when I'm not studying.
So, all in all, thank you Philip for these 9-something years of content. You've thoroughly changed how I am as a person and I honestly have no clue what I would be doing today if it wasn't for your videos.
You predicted the smoke video I want 3kliksphilip to make! I'm not sure why I haven't done it just yet. Seemed too... niche? But I can't wait to fill silly shaped places with smoke. You sound like some one who enjoys everything I make which I greatly appreciate, and I'll try to make MORE for you to watch this year :)
@@kliksphilip I certainly do and thank you!
I come to Kliksphilip's comment section for the most nichely-wholesome comments on RUclips. It does not disappoint!
To offer some unsolicited advice to a stranger on the internet - don't underestimate the diversity of roles open to you with an engineering degree! I'm sure you'll figure out something you enjoy, be that in machine learning or elsewhere. Until you see the day-to-day of a range of actual jobs (first hand or around you) it is really difficult to judge whether you would actually enjoy them or not.
@@armadillitoThank you dearly for the tips! ...One year later. Honestly, Ive just found a dream job in esports (working part-time) and i might have the possibility to continue with it after graduation. The future seems bright!
I do have to say. Every year I watch these I always realise how many of your videos I watched and rewatched.
With most RUclipsrs I watch them in cycles and sometimes just don't want to watch them at all. Not with you tho, I might not watch every single video of your's, but I've still been watching you continuously for years.
You've inspired me to start a RUclips channel were I make high quality videos. Not sh*tposts like my commenting channel lmao.
Never have i ever enjoyed listening to a youtuber just talk about themselves like i have with your channels, Philip. At the end of the day, i just figure you enjoying what you're doing is better then anything. Keep making whatever you want to make, and i'll keep showing up. GG
Thanks for another yearly analysis, love watching them every year :)
I think Beyond the Edge in Starfield was the most impactful video I’ve ever watched from you. Similarly when I was playing the game I felt a bit down about it. However your exploration of the planet map disproved some assumptions that I had on how the map generation worked which actually got me much more engaged in the title. That video has inspired a few hundred hours of gameplay that I have enjoyed very much. I thank you for that!
Thanks! I never know how much of the adventure a video conveys but there's something very 'full' for me about venturing out into the wilderness with a goal I've given myself, and I come across sights and discoveries where I wish there was somebody stood behind me for me to be able to share in them with :) Thanks for being that person
You may have seen me write similar comments before, but you are actually a part of my life, similarly to how an author whose books I always read is. I first saw a video of yours at 13 and have been watching you since for your humor and creativity and for the occasional insights into your life. I have seen you grow as a creator as I have grown into an adult and I think that sort of relationship is so cool!
You’re a true individual Philip. I love hearing your insights in these videos and can’t wait for the 2024 review.
I found your channel(s) this year before starting playing counter strike myself and I must say, I love them.
It's a breath of fresh air to see someone like you covering other, more technical topics of the game and its graphics rather than exclusively shitting on valve for not immediately making a perfect game and covering all these other topics everyone else covers already.
As a commenter said on atomic amnesia:
I've never seen anyone so hardworking and willing to keep 3 channels going all by themself while also making music and what not.
You're an incredibly talented person and I must say that you've inspired me and influenced the few videos I make on my channel including writing and editing.
You have incredible insight and seem so down to earth and relateable despite being nearly 20 years older than me, not calling you old here of course!
I've always been interested in videogame technicality and history so your channels provide me with just that itch, and kliksphilip's a great bonus.
Although you don't seem to currently be at the height of your career, just know that your videos still inspire and entertain many folks.
Love your videos Philip, here's to a good 2024 !
Thanks! I quite like having lots of things to maintain and would feel locked to having just 1 thing to focus on
@@kliksphilip Yeah that's completely fair- and quite enjoyable for someone like me!
Been waiting for this! Always love the analysis videos! - Vertical slice was probably my favourite video you made this year btw!
Regardless of the statistics and the drama, thank you for the videos this year ❤💕 Some of your best content has come out this year! Vertical slice was my favourite ❤️
I really hope you wont lose your love for youtube and for creating Videos ... I subbed to all 3 of your Channels and watched most Videos over the last few years... you are a truly unique content creator and it is really nice seeing your youtube journey!
Also I have met you at ESL One in Cologne like 6 or 7 years ago and you were such a kind Person
I've starting watching you since your Hammer map tutorials. You've been a constant "anchor point" in my youtube watching and in an odd way, my life. Just wanted to say how much I appreciate everything you do and how transparent an pationate you are about what you do. Truely wishing you all the best and a good 2024!
i deeply appreciate you & your content philip
I like watching these and hearing you talk about your experiences. You are very knowledgeable about it all and has such a unique experience with 3 channels all by yourself. Heres to 2024!
A new year is not a new year without a Klik Empire Analysis for sure!
Happy new year and good luck with 2024, RUclips has sure become a harsh and different place :\
What I enjoy about ur content is the random and at times out of context humour, the informativeness of an analysis of some kind, and the existential trips down a rabbit hole of thought. Even if these things are simply touched on in just a slice of life of some trip, walk, or outing you went on. I like the way you think I suppose, so however you express that is fine by me. All the best Philip, may you never return to a daily grind.
I won't lie I watch this video series even in the years when I've barely seen your actual content
Been watching for... I don't even know, coming up on a full decade for sure. Your content is something I seriously look forward to every year. It stands out from crowd, and always has, you have a very unique style. Here's to 2024 and whatever may come! 🎉
Your voice is calming to me to just have on in the background. I think i love your almost child-like wonder that leads you to answering questions that many of us would have, but then bat away as they would be unfeasable to answer, and often leading you down an almost spectrumy level of detailed research and presenting it all in a very entertaining way.
your music is always gonna be one of my favorite projects to come from you
the office fire extinguisher video was my favourite of yours this year, there's a serious market on youtube for extensive deep dives into seemingly minor or uninteresting subjects.
I've been subscribed for years and I didn't get most of your videos in my feed this year. I would've watched them had I gotten them there. Wonder how many others can relate. Suppose I should've hit the bell, will correct that mistake now. Off to watch all of them now!
Nevermind, apparently I have hit the bell and still didn't get the notifications...
Thanks phillip for 2023, i watch some of your video because i find it very unique tone wise, your videos just feels quirky and relaxing in some way, which one of the reason why i watch your videos, it's very unique to me.
I appreciate your video despite having low count view. It's unfortunate that your's high effort video doesn't get the attention that it deserve.
That said, Thanks Phillip, you're one of the best youtube channel i've watch this year.
I enjoy your content in all forms ! Thank you for your dedication to detail and I hope 2024 is a wonderful year for your professional and personal life !
seeing these videos pop up each year is a brutal reminder of time passing
thanks for all the content and introspective thoughts
I always love watching your content! It's often a must click when it shows up on my feed. However, over the last year I watched RUclips a lot less due to being busy which caused me to miss a few videos.
I definitely want to thank you for making the content you make. It's always a great time investment to watch them and I love the information I get from them. It's a unique view at games from other channels and that makes it fun to watch.
Thank you Philip!
this year totally had some banger videos, a couple of my all time favorites without a doubt. i wish i had some good advice or words of wisdom to share but i just enjoy the content and i hope u don't stop uploading
I love you'r out of the box thinking for some videos and how detailed every video on you'r 3kliks truely is.
As time went on i began to love the your passion itself for example from the new source engine. Becouse it's amazing how sometimes previous though uninteresting videotitles can be so unbelievably interesting by just how passionate a person is by making the video, becouse it seems like you're explaining things and find new stuff out for yourself.
I am very thankful for your content and i appreciate it a lot!
Thanks for all the videos this year!
Looking forward to new videos in 2024!
Always enjoy seeing your content across all channels when they come out. As you say they are often made to be educational but you always manage to make them entertaining and in many ways humourous which together is what makes your channel amazing.
Can't wait for 2024 empire! love you philip!!!!! ❤
Love you, I’m glad I’ve been watching anything you post for years. Often it’s binge-y; not right after you upload.
You were my favourite RUclipsr this year, thank you for all the great content man. Keep up the good work!
"Quantity has its own quality". damm that's such a good quote, that I will casually start using it in conversations now.
I just sant to say that i have enjoyed your videos so much over the years. You’re the one RUclipsr I always watch. If it has been a while since you’ve uploaded, I notice, and search all of your channels to investigate. You are a big part of my RUclips. Whatever that means. I struggle to fully articulate the thoughts I have and what I really want to say to you, and how much I just enjoy everything you put out. I will always watch your videos and you will always entertain me. Atleast..
I'm very happy you do these every year, really inspiring to be more retrospective about my own life and goals. I hope you have a good 2024
I love your videos, especially the niche in-depth analysis. They somehow feel really comforting.
Happy New Year, Phillip! I'm proud of how far your channels have come, and thank you for the inspiration.
What you have said in this video can and will bring some people further ... Thank you :)
Truly words worth to be listened to
I will always klick a Klik Empire video the moment I see it. Whatever direction you take your channels in I will be on board.
Amazing. Keep up the great work. Most transparent and thoughtful creator that doesn't succumb to the pressure of social trends or align their content to the momentary wants of the viewers. Even then, as you have emphasized it yourself, you create such content more as an experiment or a learning exercise. Very respectable and honest.
Ahhhh the LEGENDARY Klik Empire Analysis. I sure love the looking back at what worked, what did not, conclusions and plans for the future! :)
I liked your videos for years and still do. I'm happy about every video in my feed even when i'm not interested in every topic you cover.
Small creators are important, keep going please.
I think that Audio Crime was a massive success because those who wanted that level of content, Really enjoyed it! I loved it and already of all the songs on spotify and love it. You are such a wonderful youtuber and don't let youtube tell you otherwise.
i’ve been silently lurking and consuming ur content for nearly a decade at this point. just wanna say i love you and your content! i’ll always support you no matter what!!
I have always continued to watch your content because I enjoy your take on things. It's just informed and unique.
I just sorta started watching your videos in the last third of the year. I really enjoy listening to you go super in depth on random things even if I just have it on while I execute tasks. I usually klik on your videos whenever I see them on my homepage and I’ll go back and watch the 3 videos you mentioned on 2klik. I am usually a lurker but I guess it might be nice to hear from a silent majority person rather than a small upset group once in a while :-)
I almost never miss a video of yours because I find the combination of your voice overs and the music you (and your dad I think?) made to be really relaxing. It doesn't hurt that most of the things you cover I already have at least a passing interest in, but even if you make a video about something I'm not that interested in I'm likely to click on it because it just feels wrong to miss any videos from you at this point. I think I've been watching since 2016 if I remember correctly.
I've always semi watched your channel, but this year I've watched almost every kliksphilips video you've released! It's become a comfort thing for me. Love your stuff, and really liked the random topics video you made! Really interesting idea
I literally didn't even realise you had more channels until today. I just watched 2kliks and was contempt.
But this has 'opened my world' massively and I subscribed to them all lol
Incredible as per usual, quality content will always stand the test of time. The fact that you are so reflective and mindful shows your commitment to this.
Been watching you since the Bat Sweeper development videos, always hyped for more behind the scenes on game development. Thanks for all the great content trough the years and keep goin!
i used to listen to your videos to get through my 8th grade english class. now i’m going into 12th grade and i’m so grateful for the influence your videos has had on me throughout the years. i always have and always will appreciate the content you make; take care of yourself
you are the most real youtuber ever. thank you always for your wonderful videos
I find your breakdown videas very interesting. Hope 2024 is good to you
I think RUclips literally hasn’t shown me a single video from you in 2023.
I’m gonna ring the bell cause I haven’t see you in ages.
Also, I’m excited to hear your album is out! I’m gonna listen to it!
On behalf of the LGBT+ community, you didn’t deserve that.
I refuse to support anything JK Rolling profits off.
But you shouldn’t be harassed for liking it either.
Every time you release one of these videos is when it finally hits me that another year has passed, even though it feels like I just watched the last one. I don't have any input or suggestions to offer, so I'll just say I've enjoyed what you've put out this year.
I haven’t really watched this channel that often until this year when I found myself waiting for videos to come out. Found your channels becoming some of my favorites not only because of topics but just the way the content is made, I could watch an analysis of paint drying by you. Sad to see youtube making the game tougher to individuals who’s videos aren’t company projects but rather solo projects with personality. Hope 2024 is good year for you.
Always excited for this video to come out, so please keep doing it :)
your channels are a catalogue where everyone can find something to enjoy. I love listening your ramblings on random topics with your music,it brings me a sense of calm. On another note i would watch the hitman video but right now playing through it and don't want to spoil the game for myself
I love all of your videos philips, and I really like this series. Always super interesting to listen to, eye opening at times.
Always look forward to this video!
No one gives insight like this, you're a one in a million content creator
Love you channels and all ur videos Philip. Hope u get a better year and stay happy
I love these videos so much. Yearly tradition that i love. Growing up over these past years with your channels have been amazing. I am 20 now and have been watching for atleast 5 years (i think). My favorite comfort youtuber that I always return to. Every upload of yours is a treat. I dont even play CS anymore and I still watch 3kliksphilip hhaha.
I usually comment to throw my opinion into the ring on these videos of yours, but I think you got everything exactly right this time. I hope you manage to balance things out, and that you have a fruitful year ahead because I enjoy your videos :)
Thank you Phillip for 2023!
I really appreciate your effort into making those videos, it such a thing that great to watch. It's a shame that you're high effort video doesn't get the amount of view that it deserved.
For that being said. Again. Thank you Phillip ❤
Personally, and I dunno if this comment will be useful or not, my favorite videos of yours are the ones where you just...talk. Talk about yourself. Talk about your life. The video where you talked about taking walks every day is one of my favorites of all time. I may have started watching your videos for your CS content, but I grew to enjoy listening to the person behind the videos as well. I'm not sure how well these videos do in the grand scheme of things, but I personally enjoy hearing about your history.
Something that I've always appreciated, even if this is minor and doesn't translate to views or youtubing success, is the amount of honesty and transparency you put out and how you thoroughly describe your state of mind at this moment in time. I find it very valuable and so... Human. Specially in the landscape that the Internet finds itself in. What you do is very rare and barely seen anymore.
I hope that whatever endeavors you choose to partake in going forward (RUclips or not) you carry the same amount of heart, honesty and passion you always have shown to have within. Thank you Mr Kliks!! :D
At the end of the video I noticed how long ago some of the videos you show were uploaded. Specifically the ones uploaded 6 years ago, which I remember watching when they came out. It really does not feel like I watched those 6 years ago, but here we are. I can't believe I've been watching for so long.
I love this channel because of your off beat insights with your opinionated persona you are, with the little and big reflexions you do in each video. I watched every covid video for that reason. Your commentary is Gold.
Reading other comments and realized that I’ve been watching your videos since I was 10 or 11 and now I’m about to graduate high school. I’ve watched almost every single one of your videos from each channel since I’ve subscribed.
This series is how i keep track of time
i watch every single video on every of your canals and always find them interesting
As a statistics nerd, these videos are what I look forward to at the start of each year. Thank you for doing what you're doing.
and please stay glass half full I very much appreciate the videos you put out, regardless of type, lenght or content, im here for you, not specificly the topics you cover. Stay juggling
I was writing a bunch of stuff but decided to make my words brief. I enjoy you and your videos.
this channel in particular is the one I love the most, as it's the most YOU one.
I loved your videos on covid and on seeing places in UK. as a fresh immigrant I find it easier to accommodate thanks to your content. I can't wait to see more of these, you are one of the most interesting and inspirational people I know of - the dedication to produce top tier content and the variety of it is just impressive.
thank you
RUclips is definitely shifting, and I completely understand why you might have to shift your content to adapt. But I just wanted to say how much I've enjoyed your videos and music over the years. They genuinely hold a close place to me, and regardless of what happens in the future that will always remain.
Thanks for making these analysis videos! They're super insightful and interesting.
I believe I discovered your 3kliksphilip channel in 2019 before shortly after finding the second and third because of my growing interest with not only cs:go but computers and graphics. Always had a pleasure watching your content, from the technical aspects of things to all the really silly topics. Im here for it all. I don't think I've commented on one of your videos yet until now. Anyways, love you kliky philips. Have a great 2024!
14:47 don't worry kliksphilip, we do understand, the minimal change we had of having the video segmented into parts again made less of a negative impact for us than it had positive impact for your channel, all we had to do was click off if it was something we'd already seen. Seeing as you've had struggle with youtube, I don't think we'd mind what you had to do as long as you remain passionate about your channel, that's why I watch your channels. I don't know that much about computer components and I'm not that interested in Counter Strike usually, but the way you talk about it (mixed with the music choice) always manages to engage me and have genuine intrigue.
Thanks for another year of content.
(also nice Caboosing inclusion at 15:11, this channel wouldn't be the same without Caboosing)
Ive been watching your channel for almost 10 years, please keep up the good work man would love to see you make more videos even if they are lesser quality/shorter. Just with i could see more content from you.
Hello kliksphilip. I think you are one of the most unique creators I subscribe to. I watch almost all your videos across your 3 channels. Thanks for the content. Keep it up in 2024. Your work matters and your fans enjoy it no matter the topic. Thanks 🙏
❤ happy new year, loved the video, always enjoy your content on all channels. Looking forward to the next! Continue to enjoy your content and in time the era of business on youtube will pass and the creators will once again push back to more loving content for passion not money. 🎉
Best of luck into the new year and beyond! 🙌
GET IT GOIN KLIK!! 🔥YAL KEEPS IT UPS 4 THA FAM!!!!!🙏💯
how delete youtube coment 😔😔😔😔
I only really realize how quickly the year has passed when I notice the Klik Empire Analysis video in my subscription feed.
Hey Philip, thank you for the year 2023 and for the entertainment you've given us. I personally don't really care about CS2 the game, so I am one of those viewers who watch mainly your niche videos on 2kliksphilip or this channel. If it helps, I am a viewer who likes videos about the technical aspects of CS2 and the Source 2 engine rather than playing the game and that's my reason for still watching a few 3kliks videos. But I think I've seen almost every 2kliks video just for the fact that it's intereseting to me, the same way it is to you. For example, I again don't really care about Starfield as I don't think I would play it, but I am fascinated by the world generation and you did a great job covering it. Lastly, I have also seen every video on this channel, because apart from the technical topics, I like you as a person and your insights into your personal life make me compare your opinions with mine. As you mentioned, today's RUclips is flooded with companies and studios making content, so having you still around helps me appreciate RUclips the way I did 10 years ago, when I started watching you in my teenage years. So, thanks again and good luck in 2024!
