- all credit to @nikoyaps for inspiring me (I basically used his style for the video & thumbnail lol).
I think RUclips is changing for the better, and that's by bringing us back to what content used to be in the past. Before flashy editing and over-the-top personalities, content used to be simple.
People have wanted it for so long, its no surprise that RUclips has started recommending more authentic and simplistic content from creators like Niko and flowstate.
Now, old school RUclips is going viral again, and I'm really excited :)

all credit to Niko for his style of storytelling which I obviously copied here.
I don't know if this video will do well, but if I inspire atleast 1 person, I call this a win :)
EDIT: I can't even keep up with all the amazing comments on this video. Just know I read all of them when I can. All of you being inspired makes me so happy 🙂
you inspired me.
Thanks
Inspired here got a small channel (started to worry that my style would not work well and learning as I go) one of few videos I watched and was rather really good and you just got a new subscriber
come on bro. just 200 more.
you have inspired me. i dont know when i will make videos again, but this shows me i can just play and show what i play. (my biggest problems is me not wanting to talk inside my videos.)
Im extremely glad that people are picking up again on the old style of videos, im tired of thumbnails with 10x saturation, and videos with 100 sfx per second, memes non stop, text flying all over the screen.
Same
It's literally been like this since 2014
Yes and I’m one of them I feel like I’m top of the skyz.
I see your point but I’m pretty sure you just described the mlg era.
@@C0astinG4mer to be fair MLG was a meme. Its not like in that time you would watch a normal minecraft survival video and everything would be MLG.
MatPat once said in an interview that he would alternate styles every 3 videos; 1 video for the algorithm, 1 video for himself, and one video for his audience. This always was a really weird quote for me because the more interested that the audience is, the better the algorithm should perform. I think that this video was the point where I finally understood what he meant by this and I would just like to say thanks for that!
Audience already subscribes, while algorithm recommends videos to new audience. What your audience wants all the time is usually more of the same, which might not be trending and is not good for expansion.
@@GnidelI've got over 200 subscriptions. It could be more but every so often I remove creators who stopped making videos, who I got bored of, or whose style I've outgrown. How do you avoid that?
Do a variety of videos. One for the audience is giving me what I came for to begin with and maybe I'll get tired of it and maybe I won't. One for the algorithm gives me a video that is in "style" and maybe it's what I'm looking for today and holds my interest while giving me a break so I don't get tired. One for YOU is something you are passionate about and that's the video that is most likely to make me go "Wow" and then I go back and watch other video's that maybe I skipped over in the past.
@@johnchance7836How do you keep up with 200 subscriptions?
If you have a link for that interview id like to check it out thats a really interesting way to tackle the algorithm
Minecraft is the perfect look into this much larger issue both on RUclips and across every content sharing platform. People used to be passionate about the content they were making, not the potential revenue they could get from it. Videos had genuine personality, and you really felt like you were sitting with a real person watching old RUclips. There was so much authenticity when people created for the sake of creation. I know we’ll probably never go back to that with the mass monetization and corporatization of the internet, but god do I miss it.
Yeah
That's definitely a big part of it. In the early days, no one started a RUclips channel with the intention of making money. Nowadays, that's a big reason a lot of people get into it. Even if it's not the main reason, it's usually a reason. Passive income? Hoping to quit your job? That's basically doing it for the money.
RUclips is also a career of sorts now. When it's your literal career, you can't get overly experimental and take risks unless you wanna risk missing rent. And RUclips already basically forces creators to play to whatever "meta" the algorithm prefers.
@@urphakeandgey6308 Yeah exactly - I don't have that worry due to personal reasons, so my RUclips Channel is mainly used as an art space, for content I want to make - and one of the first things I wanted to do was to offer people something I felt was lacking lately, a channel where you don't have to worry about monetizing, memes flying left and right, and clickbaity thumbnails and videos - just videos I want to make myself!
We can go back, it’s just certain things in our system that need to be reformed. Don’t give up
there is a video hosting site that has that but youtube does not allow its name to be said. it auto deletes my comments when i mention it. its BC.
Can't remember where I heard it from, but someone said that the next era of youtube will be the authentic era, and I can already see it.
Yeah, I remember seeing a few RUclipsrs or RUclipsr gurus mention it.
Storytelling as a whole will be the next biggest meta on RUclips. Creators like Ryan Trahan are proof of that.
you could be an OG of the Sulij channel
I’m glad to hear that, I have a second channel that I’m trying to put more time and energy into, that’ll eventually evolve into gaming/movie reviews featuring skit comedy with me as it’s host. Kinda harkening back to that absurdist humor era of RUclips, and all my favorite content creators who did skit comedy with their content.
Just being able to express myself and my creativity freely on camera without a mask, and making people laugh like I’ve always wanted to is a big dream of mine.
I agree, but RUclips could easily prevent this from happening if they go too hard on censoring spicy content. I feel like current demonetization, algorithmic demotion, and shadow banning are big reasons as to why RUclips started to feel so corporate, standardized, and inauthentic. It's hard for people to be truly authentic when the algorithm is constantly helicopter parenting their behavior.
You can thank the new RUclips CEO for this btw.
He reverted Susan Wojak era bullshit. Videos are recommended based on their content/engagement, rather than viewcount.
Thats why Charli Damelion type clowns have next to zero views, while random videos balloon up with thousands.
Its really great IMO.
You’ve inspired me. I think that Minecraft should revive its old days and I think that we should return to the 2013 type of videos. I’ll keep this in mind for when I upload future videos
I think its already starting, its just up to content creators to keep the momentum up.
There are so many upcoming creators that are giving authenticity a revival, not just in the Minecraft commentary space.
I think if we could combine old textures and some nostalgic ideas with new features and original game style that would be the best thing ever for Minecraft.
We should claim from what elsagate and content farmers took from us!
Glory to old RUclips and old Minecraft content!
I dream at one day Mojang rollback to 1.8.9 and rethink all updates again.
@@kaiotellure I dream that Microsoft will stop ruining everything they touch and let go of all their acquired properties
Interesting to hear that people still want to watch old style videos (and i’m glad), most people these days feel like they are forced to created content that has to be 100% audience retention, that has to the the best thumbnails and editing etc…
That’s why it’s good to see when people are able to break free from that mindset, and yeh, like you said, hopefully the algorithm pushes more content like Niko’s to the top.
Exactly. RUclips is changing for the better, for sure.
I just hope people are inspired to try out RUclips in 2024, the algorithm is very promising now
@@FizzyBanger So... new ceo of RUclips changed a lot?
It's because of MrBeast 😉
i like how this style of commentaries is coming back, but not with bedwars gameplay
RUclipsrs nowadays are like coded people. They are getting into shape to shape just to keep the viewer focused like puppet. They might think this is a good thing but honestly they don't even feel human. When the content creator is more natural they feel more like a friend and known person than just a youtuber. Which is a better tag to have to me... I love this idea.. Good luck on your upcoming career, i support the hell outta this
Issue is it's about money lol RUclips isn't about making stuff you're passionate about. Everything has become a monetary gain everything is made for money and nothing else
@@Hshshdfb Everything's fun until you start making money off of it
The Beastification of youtube content has probably helped a lot of people make their passions a career but I miss videos i could keep on in the background or just enjoy at my own pace. I miss the peace my mind felt. I've been finding channels big and small who still have that feeling and luckily they are pretty apparent due to their thumbnails. Im happy to have stuff like your videos on this platform. Thank you.
rekrap2's 2nd channel (rekrap1) has been doing this with speedrunning background and it has also gone relatively viral
thats true!
I actually watch a lot of rekrap1. Very nice stuff I usually have on in the background while editing or playing Minecraft.
@@FizzyBangerfrfr. hes mixing the new and old and making extremely entertaining content while just being a genuinely nice guy (and hes rlly good at the game)
I remember he commented on one of my old Minecraft Survival let's plays years ago. Definitely a down-to-earth Minecraft RUclipsr :)
@@FizzyBangerdamnnnnn thats so cool (gj on 100k btw)
This video made me teary eyed, mainly just out of joy that this type of content is getting more appreciation, amazing video and i rly hope this style of content becomes more well known in the platform 👍
wow, I'm really happy after reading this comment.
I definitely felt fulfilled after uploading this video, because it gave me all the memories of making videos for fun.
If all goes well, and this style truly takes over in 2024, I'll be sure to make more inbetween my other content :)
@@FizzyBanger really happy that ur making content you enjoy, ur video really did motivate me to make a couple of videos, I cant thank you enough for that
This is what i needed to hear, i felt like being your true self was lost in all the flashy tittles and trends. i have been stressing on what content to make...and now i know that i wanna be part of this wave to bring this kind of content back.
Wtf i got inspired by a comment
❤
@@bysanx6557 Glad I can help 😌
Bro this was insanely refreshing you are literally showcasing what you are talking about while doing it! Anyways let’s hit 100k man!!!!!!
one of the most meta RUclips commentaries I've ever created :)
I'm so glad to see this laid back style of videos coming back. I've really missed seeing them and to see more and more people coming back to it is just so amazing and warms my heart.
I totally agree with you, every video nowadays is just so high energy and LOUD. I'm so glad that older style videos with minimum editing are becoming a thing, it feels more real and geniune. Awesome video btw! :) subscribed!
When i started watching minecraft youtube videos as a kid i personally didn’t want to see “amazing” gameplay, memes, funny moments and the stuff you find nowadays, i was more interested in the conversations and stories the youtubers had to tell. I’d laugh, smile and emphasize with the people in the video and not care about gameplay or something that would create a dopamine rush or something like that. I’m glad i found your channel and Niko thanks to you and I’m also glad that there are still people who do content like in the old days. Keep up the good work and i’d really like if you’d continue with this video format.
Its not really old minecraft but ive been enjoying this series called UHC generations. The concept of having a ultra hardcore world where when you die you pass it on to another content creator is so fascinating. I would encourge others to check it as the videos are short but full of storytelling and originality. Fizzy per usual Im glad this video came to my subsction feed. Ive been trying to reduce my shorts scrolling and i hope we as youtube viewers/creators can encourage more authentic original content.
I haven't heard of that, I'll definitely check it out.
Hopefully I can make content that everyone will enjoy. I've been doing a lot more Shorts recently, and they've been successful.
But bringing together a Shorts audience with slow-paced long videos like this one is an almost impossible feat. Maybe I'll just work on the two types of content separately.
@@FizzyBanger Definitely do as the videos are great! Flaming Moai started the world (he also has the full Playlist on his channel) and Code Neon currently has it. I don't dislike shorts I just wish they weren't as prominent or addictive on RUclips. Anyways have a great rest of your day and thanks for putting out top tier content.
one of the appeals of youtube originally was the authenticity of the content, and now that youtube is more commercialized with higher production value now that authentic content was mostly gone that market which people are still interested in was empty, and these content creators are just filling it
I feel like nostalgia is playing a huge factor into this. Minecraft today is not what minecraft used to be. I still love minecraft, but the music and the blocks just bring back specific memories I really enjoy
Nostalgia is a truly powerful thing. Minecraft has been around for long enough that even some of the earlier release updates could be considered nostalgic.
Theres a bit of the old yt that has survived and im glad its back. Theres this guy, thewafflegalaxy who ive watched for many years, even during the minecraft dark ages or whatever the heck its called. He doesnt tell stories or such more is a good comentator and he does simple yet refreshing comentary, he is also one of the few lets play channels ive found that is still kicking it and hasnt evolved. Glad mc is coming back to simple content like waffles.
This was a breath of fresh air, especially hearing you talking about how optimizing for retention can be so exhausting. I've also been doing some reflection about what I want out of doing RUclips and I'm going to try to start making content that I want to make, and therefore people like me would want to see, instead of what would appeal to the broadest audience. Great video!
What I love about these type of videos and channels is it’s like a podscast and video into one. You don’t need to watch the video or gameplay to still get the same message. It’s what I love and the simplicity. I started making my own videos thanks to Niko and Martin. Best of luck to all those channels who started off them. ❤
It's frustrating; I feel like ONLY channels trying to capitalize on "OMG old RUclips is back" are trending for this, not RUclipsrs who are *just doing that style* because that's what they've always wanted to do/have done. Makes it feel more like a superficial, fleeting trend rather than an actual paradigm shift.
I myself feel like ive been filled with all this noise to the brim. And so i started watching old videos from youtubers i loved back in the day. It felt so refreshing, no editing, no ovethyped personality,just pure content for the sake of it. I absolutely love and encourage everyone to return to this style. Its just better and cooler.
damn i love fizzy and old youtube
Me too :D
introvertedmadness was my first intro to this kind of video. it’s nice to feel heard or seen in a way. it’s nice to have someone vocalize and put into words the things we’re afraid to. I loved how imperfect his talks were; they were non linear and didn’t have a narrative really. it felt like those 3am discord gaming sessions where you just talked to yourself or your friends just to feel less lonely and to be perceived. each person has their own internal monologue and it’s refreshing to hear authenticity.
*We're making it back to 2010 with this one!*
that gravel texture just gave me probably the biggest rush of nostalgia, but videos of people just having fun with a game is always refreshing
to this day i still watch a lot of old yogscast youtube series cause its relaxing and they are just being them selves
I'm a very big fan of the Yogscast too. Watched the Voltz series many times at this point. Probably one of the more underrated ones is Hole Diggers, I remember watching that series recently and loving it.
Woah this is so relatable. I have thrown away quite a few videos, that were planned out kinda well, just because I thought the editing was pretty bad/too simple. Ty for making this!
Im glad to see this kind of content returning! I grew up with this kind of content with simple Minecraft game play and having fun. Hope it can be a major part of RUclips again :)
The style I want to do is to create a modded Minecraft series where it tells a story about a villager who decided to leave his village to face the unknown.
It is true I do edit my videos quite a bit, but I don't go overboard. I believe a slower paced, story driven video is better for stimulation.
I used to have a youtube channel. I made videos for two or three years, but deleted it after a friend from school made fun of my ten subscriber special. I absolutely regret deleting it, almost every day now. I had so many good videos. My most favourite ones were my rocket league and steep clip compilations with ncs music on top of it. It was so much fun making the videos on imovie with my school ipad, and it motivated me to have more fun in video games. But my stupid teenaged brain was so embarrassed by a little bit of friendly mockery that I deleted it all without even thinking about it, or saving a single one of the videos. This video kinda motivated me to consider trying again, so thank you.
I love youtube's old style it's pretty good actually and there wasn't any brainrot
I think niko is a pretty good guy
I agree, its much more relaxing. Hopefully Niko gets to 100k subs, I genuinely think his content deserves it
All the gory content I miss it
what?
@@FizzyBanger i agree with you people need to take a break from brainrot i hope he achieved his deserve subscribers
@@pupucoverYou aint lookin.
Heyo! Do you have any news on the Lowlevelnoob case? I used to watch his content A LOT when I was younger, one of them even introduced me to my now favorite game franchise! (Portal)
So if you find anything new can you please keep us updated? Thanks!
you know this is like pixar on innovation era rather than cow milking era. its kinda relaxing with no memes and just slow down nostalgic. i know nostalgic gonna be gone by years pass .but let's just breath in ,relax and be happy that it happens. bcs early gen z (2004 till 2014) is the best generation said my father
I am 2003.....
@@Finalizor well your kinda the same
Only 1 year older
I picked up making videos last year in like october or something, super slow growth as my vids arent that good in all honesty.
Ive found that being offline still has a bunch of noise. But online the noise is so abundant that it bangs on peoples walls.
Ive found that the more i watch smaller channels, with storytelling as mentioned its more interesting, funny, and authentic.
Hopefully a Renaissance of content comes again, we all need it.
I love how this old content atyle is coming back because it is the type of one I enjoy. Yes it may sound wierd but most flashy and highley edited video is not in my interest and while I do occasionally watch some of those videos theese ones are more appealing to me.
I really loved the video, thank you so much for everything in the video especially your speach, I’ve been really missing the old youtube and how it used to be so simple backthen to make people enjoy, it was so calming to see someone who feels the same
It gets a lot more niche and historical than this. Brahkie does these crazy authentic satires of mid-late 2000s online culture, and I mean every part of how old videos were from the subject matter to the personality to the aspect ratios. It's one thing to be minimalist, but her unwaivering dedication to historical accuracy is what makes me passionate about online video again even when the UX is doing everything in its power to push me away
Hey, I can’t thank you enough for making this video. You led me to watching some of Niko’s videos and both of you pushed to try making similar content but with a Pokemon twist, in hopes of inspiring others. I’ll see if it works, but it makes me happy to be making something I enjoy more, stay awesome and I’m happy this video is doing awesome : )
I’m a music major, and something I’ve learned about the music world-or life in general-is that we eventually maximize in one area so much that we eventually have to go back to basics; a return to form. Simplicity. This is what these old videos and the direction I believe RUclips is heading, people are starting to get tired of wanting to be in the spotlight and maybe want to take a step back.
A return to form. That's a really elegant way of putting it :)
yo thank you for pointing this stuff out, the old things really need to come back now. videos now adays are everything they can edit and overwhelming a bit. great video man i enjoyed it
This inspires me, I’ve had ideas about a RUclips channel but I’m so inexperienced, plus with how RUclips is now but I might try to make it a reality
Go for it! Go with your inspiration and never regret it. If people like it,then great. If not, then at least you are doing something you love.
I definitely get you dude. If you go to RUclips in an incognito tab, the amount of brain rot on the home page is ridiculous. There's people that put years into growing their channel and it doesn't go anywhere but brainrot like Cocomelon gets hundreds of millions of views after a couple days of upload. Yes, I do like edited videos but they've become way too commercialized and "kid friendly". Flashy edits, sponsors, merch plugs, and a jump-cut every couple seconds feel like sensory overload at some point and it feels like I'm watching an action movie instead of a dude trying to survive a parasite apocalypse.
THE UPLOAD SCHEDULE IS SO FIRE NOW I LOVE IT
I LOVE IT I LOVE IT
ALSO CONGRATS OM 100K BROOO 🎉
I really loved this video and really put the content I push out into perspective. I have always loved the simplistic storytelling style that flowstate and niko does and I can't wait to see RUclips become what it used to be, a place where unique people can share their unique thoughts and videos instead of the high paced editing and overwhelming information all within the first 30 seconds of the video.
Omygosh thanks for talking about this, I only discovered Niko about 3 weeks ago but honestly it's like he tapped into a crazy nostalgia that I haven't experienced in a couple years tbh.
Honestly, as someone who’s been enjoying creating videos and keeping it simple by making my videos feel like it’s just some friends playing on the couch, it’s hard not to feel that pressure and cave in the editing thumbnails etc. This really inspired me to just keep it simple and enjoy making videos how I do instead of trying hyper optimize my content. I like to keep it genuine and how we experienced it. Thank you for this :)
i agree. often i would put videos while doing tasks and i cant anymore, because they are so fast and so incredibly polished i cant look away from the screen for a moment without losing understanding of it.
It's not vintage RUclips until you record it with an unlicensed copy of Bandicam and upload in 360p max.
Love the content man! Not a daily viewer but I realized I was subbed to you already and was not disappointed. Ever since RUclips went corporate these types of videos were inevitable especially with further censorship and the “Ad-pocalypse”. Nice to see you take a break on having more natural content that you just can let it out. But yeah, it’s with the times, WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME you saw a “Let’s Play” title on RUclips’s front page. I know some good ol gaming RUclipsrs who still are relevant doing just pure live commentary but the scene is heavily saturated with what is trending and getting numbers. BUT MAN, just nothing, nothing, can beat that Pewdiepie Amnesia Let’s Play. Even a couple years ago Pewdipie dominated RUclips when he went against T-Series. Now, just like him, I pretty much moved on from his content and in general life. Still will probably watch RUclips until I die. Just post what you like and feel, I’ll see if I can tune in!
I really miss the old Let's Play days. Obviously I can go watch them at my own free will, but its not the same as waiting for new episodes to come out.
My favorite is still the Yogscast Minecraft let's plays. I have ultra nostalgia for those videos. Minecraft now just doesn't compare to those early Alpha days, in my opinion.
I didn't realize what I was missing about older youtube until you pointed it out. Thank you.
I really hope this goes viral because I love this video format.
I’m only half way through this video and it’s everything I needed to hear. Subbed.
"Less is More"
Couldn't have been said better.
Congratulations for 100k❤
videos like this are just so relaxing, and it actually sounds like you care about what you're talking about. It's kind of why I just can't watch hermitcraft anymore, it doesn't feel like these people are having fun it reminds of how on the news they joke and banter like they're best friends. Anyways it just feels like fake forced fun. I just wanna watch people have fun playing a game I love.
thanks for this video, i really needed that
ive been watching vintage story playthroughs for that gentle exploration vibe. has a lot more meat on it, feels like an alt universe minecraft that stayed indie, humble, and clever in its expansive mechanics
There's this channel that plays GTA IV, and it's recorded by someone just doing youtube for fun. One of the better things on RUclips currently.
Congrats on 100k my man!
I just realised you're back. You and your channel IS gold!
I tried RUclips years ago when I was a kid and saw no success. Success obviously doesn't have to be the goal, but it was very disheartening at the time. Maybe I should pick it back up this year and try something simple and real. Something that hopefully resonates with people.
Authenticity really is making waves on RUclips, and I am so here for it
Ive been feeling the nostalgic ache from missing the authenticity of old RUclips, it’s no longer RUclips its capitalist tube. The old barely edited dance videos, the makeup videos filmed in someone’s room in the middle of the night in 720 p, and yes the unedited Minecraft longplays. I’m so glad you’ve reached this decision, new sub here
this is sooo needed right now! great video, all the best ❤
Thank you for bringing this.
and like all other forms of art, content creation has for the first time come full circle. I don't think the return in of itself is particularly interesting because it *is* the trend of all art, but what I do think is interesting is the way it's changed within the cycle. Despite returning to some of the beloved simplicity of old content, some things are still different. The stories being told, the clean aesthetic being intentional rather than just what was thought of first. It's simplicity post-experimentation, refined in a new way. I'm very excited to see if this really turns into that paradigm shift.
Wow made me realise it was those old videos that encouraged me to make content on the platform ! It was very touching, I had the chills and related a lot (even being french and with slighty different youtube trends)
Ive been thinking about this too recently and decided to start a lets play like the old days. I miss old minecraft youtube.
Thank you, for giving me hope again
That was really awesome to watch. I think it’d also be awesome to see this kind of content moving forward.
This is refreshing to see and hear about, good on these channels!
"Less is more" is the general style of content I usually like best. It's the type I aim for. No over editing, no hyper analytics focused content, etc. It's very refreshing for me to see others also following the same format.
I think people are tired of disingenuous, hyper edited content. People are finally realizing that constantly optimizing our videos is not the thing we want. We want a break!
This is my favorite video of yours yet. I love your honesty, and I loved hearing your story that many of us can relate to.
Its amazing how many people really resonated with this video (more than I expected).
Just saw some of your videos, you've definitely lived up to "less is more". I'm hopeful that more people will make their way to the nostalgic side of RUclips, especially with how the algorithm operates now :)
Great video, you really made me think about my own channel and the direction I want to follow with it
3:53 wow not gonna lie, that's kinda deep if someone start their own journey with youtube
yeah, RUclips can really kill your creativity if you let it.
better to focus on the audience rather than the algorithm. eventually, you realise that the audience IS the algorithm.
always has been, so focus on who you want to watch you, rather than chasing views from everywhere.
This is exactly the video I needed just at the right time, I hope too see more content from you as well as others 👍
It's refreshing when I watch one of Niko's Video. You needed that sometimes
I have definitely started to see this again recently especially with hermitcrafts, chill just chatting streams and Vodskall which is iskall85’s second channel has gotten 100k in 2 weeks. It is basically just no editing, messing about with the other Hermits. Great video :)
thanks man, you gave me the little impulse i needed to start something that i've wanted to do for so long now, love the video S2
This video put a smile on my face. We need more videos like this
100000 subs! Congrats man!
a chill tone down, without all the extra noise is great honestly, and minimal editing
I started to make RUclips videos last year, but mostly for airplane and train content. I got burned out pretty damn fast with no real goal in mind. After watching this video, I want to start again but with the goal of to just have fun. Thanks for this video, Fizzy Banger. It hit my algorithm just at the right time like Niko did for you. Cheers from New Jersey!
i'm so happy to see this kind of content getting more popular again, i hope people start making vlog videos the same way as well.
I have never seen your channel, but youtube delivered this video to me. So i was deciding to watch this while having my lunch and i really liked it!
I totally support your idea of relaxing the pressure on your own content, for the means youtube has laid upon creators for monetary interests.
Your thoughts reminded me of Mark Fishers Philosophy. According to him nostalgia has some sort of political dimension to it, because it embraces refusing changes that are laid upon us externally. Simply saying no to the evolution of youtube as a medium and going back to times before certain changes, making alternate futures possible again.
It feels like we are slowly going back to being more genuine as content creators. Which is genuinly nice to see. Its not just Niko, a lot more people are doing this as of late with a lot of other stuff. No big edits, maybe highlights yea but overall just gameplay, fun and chill vibes.
Even Hermitcraft is doing this more and more again. Where its no longer a rush to the end to bring us bombastic stuff but instead do fun interactions, pranks and more where you can tell that they are actually having fun.
I love making videos I’m passionate about, and don’t really care about the clicks as much as how I enjoy making content. I’m glad people are realizing how important it is to do what you enjoy.
I'm starting to get more comfortable with the idea of prioritising the viewer, rather than chasing clicks now.
The "algorithm" mentality is kinda coded into me now, so it'll take a while to readjust haha
i can relate, i used to upload every other day awhile back but with minimal editing cause i felt it was more authentic.. i ended up kind of stopping cause i got sick of trying to keep up with the latest editing trends and so on.. i like keeping the editing to a very minimal style and like a cut com style. But, with the editing ways of everyone else and doing all the super over the top effects, i felt like my kind of content was no longer needed or wanted so i just kind of gave up in a way.. i have thought about rebooting but i dont know anymore haha
Gives me hope that maybe this is my year to get ahead on here finally after over a decade.
It’s interesting to see this becoming popular again. Makes me think that retention style editing will eventually come back eventually.
Bro, this is inspiring, lately I've been feeling nostalgic and watching old yt stuff thinking "I want this back", and thinking "I want to upload videos, so why don't I try something like old yt?" , and I think the world recommended this video as a signal for me to do it
Recently watched Nerdcubed again. Last time i watch him is maybe 2016 on the just cause 3. His new video estate agent is a classic
a fellow NerdCubed enjoyer?
he was practically the reason why I got into RUclips years ago. I did see some of his recent videos, but I usually go back to the classics like his GTA challenges, or that really long Euro Truck Simulator road trip.
Great video man. Inspiring stuff.
Damn back from school and Fizzy just uploaded. What else Do I want for the perfect monday!
aw thats awesome!
I hope to upload a lot more consistently, so you'll always have stuff to watch haha
@@FizzyBanger haha yeahh. Do not rush it tho! You doin great!
yooo congrats on 100k
thanks!
Thank you for reminding me that being genuine is better than video editing out the wazoo
Thank you for this video, I feel validated for not wanting to follow the current trends of video making on RUclips, and I'm glad to know there are some people with simple and relaxing videos doing very well on this very platform and on this very year.
It makes me feel inspired to keep going. I'll use the necessary stuff to make my videos watchable if I ever feel I need, but not in a way that goes against what I think makes a good and entertaining video.
Keep going you as well! 👍
I'm new here, and I really enjoyed this. I'm 100% here for a change to calm, real authenticity after all the noise we've put up with for so long.
