Change is the only constant in this world, if you are sad, know that’s your sadness reflects the connection you had with them. No one can know their future and it is worth being alive and present to see how it will play out, however dark it may look to you at any given moment. keep struggling.
Nothing in life is permanent. You enjoyed it and that all that can be left, memories. The channels are still there even though it not the same. Just know that change is important for growth and improvement.
Guys listen memories is nice and all but where are gonna help us? We need the actual, kind hearted youtubers/people to help us NOW we are on the verge of destruction and evil is everywhere. Back then on the 90s 2000s 2010s was simple times with goodness in the world
Like anything theres a begining a middle and a end. An old friend of mine used say this to me a lot "If you ain't having fun,its time to change" For many those creators leaving/passing the torch,is difficult but in my humble opinion,you either quit while you love it or you continue and begin to hate it. This is the end of a era,many more will take their place unfortunately.
@@CamelliaFlingert well then if you ain't having fun,I would highly recommend changing things,you know,changes need to occur inside your mind first for them to be concrete on the outside. Work on the mind
@@CamelliaFlingert let me tell a secret, gaslight yourself to think everything will be alright. In the past I suffered a great deal of depression,that was a way to get out of it,at the time I was super isolated,no friends/family to talk or be close,if I hadn't done self gaslighting I wouldn't be here today. So yeah I'm not gonna say it's the panacea of the mind but it does help. But remember it's a two side blades,if you don't know when to stop doing it, you'll go numb.
@@CamelliaFlingert well then,I think it's time to search for a therapist and spill all the stuff you're going through. Trust me It does work it helps so much. It's what folks call "doing the bleeding", you'll feel better after a while.
I really don't want to grow up man, I'm turning 16 this year and I remember when I was only 6 or 7 watching DanTDM and Stampy with my older sister, it's just sad :(
Just came here from MatPat's Goodbye Video... and man, is beautifull and heart wrenching how time has past. We're all different, we've all grown up... and now we have to say "thank you for loving me, farewell"
Absolutely, I definitely agree; seeing life seemingly deteriorate around you is really hard for everyone and that's what growing up is in essence. Its a hard reality for us all to face that we; arguably the RUclips generation, have changed, grown and evolved by the change in our lives. And I think we can all agree to show endless gratitude for these beloved creators who were always there for us as we grew up. Thank all of you wonderful content creators for being a major positive influence on our generation.
there's also something ironic in the fact that a man who wore colors in his hair until he was in his mid-20s telling other people they need to grow up lol
@@scrublordgamer9636 There's a huge difference between older generations and now, they had a chance at a real life and housing and can live adequately and happily while life seemingly goes to shit around them. Now? We fight, struggle, work, suffer, everything imaginable JUST to have a chance at a very basic means of living and things only seem to be getting worse. Older generations did an excellent job of leaving nothing for the rest of us and all they say is "work harder and longer and you can get a house one day" I could work 15 hour days 7 days a week for 15 years and not be able to afford a down payment on a house.
And then MatPat joined the ranks of legends to leave. We love you. All of you. Stampy, DanTDM, Markiplier, MatPat, all of you. You have all changed so many lives in so many ways. You've helped us to see the bright side of life, you've brought us together with other people, you've created things that we all love, and you've inspired us to create, to become better versions of ourselves. You've given us all so many puzzles and gasps and funny moments and shocking twists. But most of all, you gave us memories. Memories of a simpler time, memories of laughter, memories of fun, memories of you. And those memories will last forever, on the screen, in our minds, and in our hearts. No matter what comes our way, no matter what happens to any of us, we will always have the memories of each other. And that is something that we will never forget. I love you guys. To the creators who helped change us all, and to the ones who were changed. I love you guys.
After watching the goodbye video from matpat, my heart ached watching this. If he's leaving because he thinks he's getting old or he wants to spend time with his family (which is cool, power to him), this means all of our favorites are soon to leave the platform too.
mark's heartfelt speech about creativity hits harder when you realize just how much he's made too. youtube films and now a whole ass movie. it's incredible how far everyone has come as a collective group. us, the viewers, them, the great minds behind our childhood, and the eternal relationship between the two.
I fucking hate growing up. The future and growing up is my greatest fear. I hate saying goodbye, but everyone is now growing and is being encouraged by these people we grew up with to become something great and truly make something of our future. These guys are really giving me hope with their messages. Thank you everyone, thank you for growing up with me. edit: these comments are so comforting, you guys don’t even understand how much your words mean to me. it’s taken a lot of weight off of my shoulders to be told that it’s not too late, that it won’t be as hard as i’m making it out to be. all of you guys are coming together to my comment and saying such hopeful things and it means so much, it’s so beautiful to see. thank you everyone.
I can't agree more, man. Watching your childhood unravel before your eyes can make a mf tear up, remembering them good times when you'd get home from school and pour yourself a bowl of cereal, then just sit down and turn on some good RUclips videos. Growing up fucking sucks, man...
yes, growing up is a scary thing, and the end is inevitable. it is not something to fear though, if unus annus taught me anything, it is to never fear the end, and to embrace change, for nothing is forever.
Ain't that the truth. I want to have a better perspective on growing up. I wanna be grateful for the things I have achieved and all that but man. Life ain't feel so full of hope like it did back then. The world ain't behind me but it doesn't feel hopeful like it did back then. I am older and miserable and pessimistic and realistic and I hate it. Why does it feel like I gotta be this way. I wanna be grateful for the opportunity that I have to get older and go through all the joys and the pains and some days I thank my lucky stars for all that I have but I struggle to get out of my own way, the feelings that it's not enough, that I gotta prepare for more loss and more pain and the cruel world around me, it's just not right yk.
I remember watching them when I was young and was trying to remake what they did and when I realized that dantdm moved labs and stampy moved I was really crying my eyes out. I am 16 but I still remember all the funny videos that they had posted.. And my boyfriend was crying over the matpat vid and I gotta agreed.. We all are growing up and I just want to be a kid again watching all of my favorite RUclipsrs especially donut the dog..
Made me cry, I was going through hard time when I was about 8 or 9 and going through serious stuff. My parents were emotionally absent, so these RUclipsrs, these strangers raised me emotionally. It’s so sad to see basically my emotionally present parents leave. I’m turning 17 this year and I’ve never been more scared, and knowing they won’t be there for that is so scary. I hope everyone is going to have a good new year
Dude, that is so real. I also have mat pat mostly be my emotional parent, because both of my real parents are emotionally absent. I’m 19 and went through the same exact thing. This is a normal thing in life, it’s coping with loss. The best way of coping with it is through crying and speaking to someone about it. I wish you the best, let’s be the best people we can be for mat pat!!
@@yasininn76 oh trust me I know relying on internet strangers for that isn’t healthy 💀 luckily I’ve grown so I don’t have to be that unhealthy anymore.
@@yasininn76its not healthy, but the whole parasocialism concept doesnt really apply when its in the case of kids desperately scrounging for a safe adult to latch to, even if its one they dont actually know. at the very least, kids'll grow out of it with time. or they won't, but that escapism will hopefully morph to something more conducive.
That Mark clip made me cry. I grew up watching his videos, and he's the reason I started saving to get recording equipment so maybe one day I can be the person people grow up watching too.
Ironically, as a kid ive always wondered what happens when youtubers grow old that they cannot continue what they do or when they finally decided "yep, that's it". And not because of drama or cause they're just tired of controversy. Now, I finally got my answer.
I love that you can hear the emotion in their voices. You can tell that they truly cared for what they did on RUclips. Communities were more than just communities for these RUclipsrs, they were friends, they were family. Its been an honor yall
Honestly the fact that these guys are basically encouraging us to grow and embrace the future when so many of us are afraid to is very warming. It really helps my fear of the future that these guys are encouraging us to become something greater.
i started watching youtube at the age of 14. Since then, my life has changed so much. i don’t know what i’m going to do with my life, but I know that no matter what the time I spent watching and growing with my favorite creators was special and it helped shape me into who I am today. Especially Markiplier, Jacksepticeye, and Game Theory. MatPat announced his retirement and it’s hitting me hard, and I have a feeling Mark and Jack will be retiring within the next five years. They’re my rocks right now, just like they were back in middle school. At least we can always look back and laugh ❤ edit: Mark said he won’t leave until RUclips isn’t fun, but I have a feeling Jack will be announcing his retirement within the next few years (at least from YT, maybe not the podcast)
@Tristan1886 Well, now! Nice to see someone who shares the same birthday as me, even though I'm actually gonna be turning 32 this year. Also, I kinda get the sentiments coming from these comments, hell, I honestly miss the good ol' early days of RUclips myself. Oh, how I miss what life was like at being 15....
I just started my history course for this semester and my professor breifed us on Hegel and his study of history, one of the key takeaways being "all eras of history are equally relevant and all sacrifices are equally important". These guys may have just been making and posting videos, but they really did inspire an entire generation of creativity and individuality; the mental growth and development caused by each and every one of these guys is just as important as all the sacrifices of our ancestors and all the efforts of our future generations. I'm just glad I get to live in the first generation who gets to share these things with all these people around the globe, I love you all
One comment I saw about Vanoss and Co. applies a lot to this video: "I've always considered them the Banana Bus crew instead of 'The Vanoss crew' because over the years they've been been getting off at their own stops". And what Jack said is true, we've all changed not just the people we used to watch. Everyone has to grow up and move on.
2023 was a year full of betrayal from most RUclipsrs. RUclipsrs who were exposed for doing such horrible things like being predators, liars, narcissists and just douchebags. And while they tried to come back and continue they’re careers, they simply cannot, because they betrayed our trust. They cannot have us as fans anymore because of that betrayal. However, it is refreshing to have other RUclipsrs like Markiplier, Jacksepticeye, CoryxKenshin, MatPat (have a great retirement), DanTDM, MrBeast and many more being the greatest people on the internet, with they’re kindness and generosity. But either way, it’s heartbreaking to know how many RUclipsrs made apology videos last year, because that’s how many times we were betrayed by them. So hopefully, 2024 will be different. Not off to the best start, but I pray it gets better.❤
I’m scared, I’m afraid, I don’t think I’m ready, but life isn’t a game, you can’t stall things out forever, you can just pause to breathe, you’ll eventually have to grow up, and the harder it will be if you try to avoid it I’m afraid of change, but I understand, it’s for the better Also, break yet add to the sad tone, you’ll now have to add Matpat to the list
The Jacksepticeye one hits hard because of how true it is. I miss how I used to feel watching his and many other of my favourite childhood youtubers' videos. I wish I could go back to that time in my life, but sadly I can't.
It’s the end of an era cuz dan was right we aren’t kids anymore we have all grown up but sometimes we just go back to our childhood memories and watch the classic RUclips videos.
I almost feel like life keeps catching up to me in so many unexpected yet very sad ways. All my heroes are leaving Stampy and MatPat meant so much to me it’s never gonna feel the same. The thing Sean (jacksepticeye) said is very true and it’s scary. I’m now 20 and I wanna go back to simpler times back when everything made sense but I can’t my childhood is leaving me and change is frightening to me. These legends though in this video and many more are just the best to mark, Sean, mat, Dan, Stampy aka Joseph, Cory, Dawko, sparklez, Ian, Anthony, and squid thank you guys all so much you mean the world to me and many others and there’s so many great people on the internet I can’t name every single one of them but they’re out there and you are liked and loved by generations of audiences of various ages so from the bottom of my weeping heart thank you for making memories.
I'm still in high-school dude. I'm not ready to be an adult. I just miss when I was a little kid and came back home to watch these awesome folk. It hurts man...
Dude if matpat would have been there at the end saying thank you while crying, i tell you as a man i would have had waterfalls. LITERAL WATERFALLS in my room rn flooded.
We may grow up, but deep down we all have that inner child. Give the most serious adult an opportunity to act like a kid, and I’ll bet my soul they’ll enjoy every last second. Nothing feels better than those moments of reliving your childhood as an adult. So kids, make as many memories as you can. Before they become too rare to spot as an adult.
My these legends lay to rest to peace, and pave the road that they have made, for new successors to continue it. Good buy old friends and may you live on in our hearts
The amazing thing about this platform is even if you forget you can always attempt to find the video as it’s almost certainly on hear of the channels still up which is always nice if you have terrible memory
I remember watching most of these guys for most of my life. (Still watch Vanoss, Mark, Sean, and Dan). Watching this made me tear up because I couldn't believe it's been this long that I've watched them. I grew up with these men, and I appreciate them so much. Especially Markiplier and DanTDM because I watched them the most. I can not thank them enough for the joy they brought me whenever I watched their videos. I haven't been doing the best lately, so watching them say this made my day so much better. Thank you so much ❤❤❤
Team edge and matpat were and still are my childhood. When team edge announced that they're done I wasn't really sad about it because their videos were getting kinda boring without Bobby. But matpat's goodbye video broke me. He is the reason why I love fnaf so much, the franchise won't be the same without him. I literally cried when I watched his video, the last time I cried so much over a youtuber was with tecknoblades' death, DEATH, and Matt's not even leaving for good yet. He'll still be behind the camera and on GTLive until the summer. That alone shows how much I love him, care about him and appreciate him. I'll miss him so much. 💔
The second generation of the internet is upon us. Edit: I meant to say second generation of RUclips, my bad. Though this is probably the third generation of RUclips.
There are worlds buried under your worlds, your feet rest on Ozymandian sands. There have been eras of internet long before yours, or ours, or theirs. And these all have passed, into the night and into the deep. As ours passes. And the next shall pass, and the next. Ask about the old days, before the internet was video. Before playing games to an audience was real, ask about the old days to those who were there. You will find words greater and more vibrant than yours, in the nostalgia of the old. And now, you're coming to find them in yourself. Congratulations. Time has passed along.
Team edge just stopping hits different. I remember watching them on my mother tablet and just laughing. But we all do have to grow up sometime, and nothing lasts forever
Man, when I was in grade school to my high school years, I used to watch these guys a lot, especially Mark, Dan, the Banana Bus crew (Evan's videos in particular), & Sean. But now Im out of school, struggling to land a good job, & managing a good income so I can go to a tech school. Things really were easier when you didnt have so much to worry about
The way Jack put it hit so hard, because looking at it from that perspective, yeah. That's exactly what it is. I miss going to school with the friends I'd made and then going home and watching all my favorite channels like Dan, Mark, Jack and Stampy. Now I have responsibilities, a job, a wife, and life is harder than ever. But even then I still manage to handle it all well while still getting to enjoy the content I watched way back when.
markipliers was probably the saddest one here. when i started watching him, i was a nobody. i wasnt a creator, or anything. but now im growing up. im almost an adult, i already have a part-time job, im close to graduating high school, and i have over 1k subs. hearing markiplier say that makes me really happy. ive improved in art a lot over these past few years that ive started uploading, and im pretty proud of myself. and hearing markiplier indirectly say hes proud of me makes me so much happier. hes like the dad i barely ever got to have. thank you markiplier, thank you to all the youtubers from my childhood and everybody elses. youve really changed mine, and everyones lives for the better.
its so weird watching these as im still a kid, a shell of one sure, but I'm 14, i was about 5 or 6 in these guys' prime, like they *were* my formative years and still are.
On top of them being older and wanting a life beyond content creation and appeasing fans.. RUclips just isn’t very profitable/enjoyable for the content creators anymore due to in-numerous reasons.
Lot of it is cause they grew up and want to do other things. Some stay and keep doing what they're doing. But, some want to move on and semi retire or do other things.
their all old now.. it’s just a mix of doing it for so long, they all have families now, their probably burnt out and most likely bored.. i couldn’t imagine doing youtube and working so hard like that for like 10 years or more.. they deserve to finally get a break but my heart also breaks
Despite everything, PewDiePie was a huge comfort for me as a kid. His energy and variety in videos was just perfectly entertaining for my 10 year old brain, and the way he engaged his fans made me feel like I was coming home to a friend 🥲

I am 16 but I still remember all the funny videos that they had posted.. And my boyfriend was crying over the matpat vid and I gotta agreed.. We all are growing up and I just want to be a kid again watching all of my favorite RUclipsrs especially donut the dog..
@@Shr00mzy_Edits Dan moving labs has always been really emotional for me.
same here and i would play roblox all day as a 6 year old, now I'm 20... and still play roblox
Made me cry, I was going through hard time when I was about 8 or 9 and going through serious stuff. My parents were emotionally absent, so these RUclipsrs, these strangers raised me emotionally. It’s so sad to see basically my emotionally present parents leave. I’m turning 17 this year and I’ve never been more scared, and knowing they won’t be there for that is so scary. I hope everyone is going to have a good new year
I don't think you need me to tell you that that is not healthy at all
Dude, that is so real. I also have mat pat mostly be my emotional parent, because both of my real parents are emotionally absent. I’m 19 and went through the same exact thing. This is a normal thing in life, it’s coping with loss. The best way of coping with it is through crying and speaking to someone about it. I wish you the best, let’s be the best people we can be for mat pat!!
@@yasininn76 oh trust me I know relying on internet strangers for that isn’t healthy 💀 luckily I’ve grown so I don’t have to be that unhealthy anymore.
You’ll be ok, I have a feeling you will be that person for someone, or perhaps a couple people, one day
@@yasininn76its not healthy, but the whole parasocialism concept doesnt really apply when its in the case of kids desperately scrounging for a safe adult to latch to, even if its one they dont actually know. at the very least, kids'll grow out of it with time. or they won't, but that escapism will hopefully morph to something more conducive.
That Mark clip made me cry. I grew up watching his videos, and he's the reason I started saving to get recording equipment so maybe one day I can be the person people grow up watching too.
markiplier being on the verge of tears almost broke me.
hearing marks voice breaks is the saddest thing for me
They all sound like very proud parents in some ways, esp mark, its weird.
Ironically, as a kid ive always wondered what happens when youtubers grow old that they cannot continue what they do or when they finally decided "yep, that's it". And not because of drama or cause they're just tired of controversy. Now, I finally got my answer.
I love that you can hear the emotion in their voices. You can tell that they truly cared for what they did on RUclips. Communities were more than just communities for these RUclipsrs, they were friends, they were family.
Its been an honor yall
Honestly the fact that these guys are basically encouraging us to grow and embrace the future when so many of us are afraid to is very warming. It really helps my fear of the future that these guys are encouraging us to become something greater.
Man am crying with reading this line.

this one should be at the top, its a good message to take away from the video. be glad for the past but be optmistic for the future

i started watching youtube at the age of 14. Since then, my life has changed so much. i don’t know what i’m going to do with my life, but I know that no matter what the time I spent watching and growing with my favorite creators was special and it helped shape me into who I am today. Especially Markiplier, Jacksepticeye, and Game Theory. MatPat announced his retirement and it’s hitting me hard, and I have a feeling Mark and Jack will be retiring within the next five years. They’re my rocks right now, just like they were back in middle school. At least we can always look back and laugh ❤
edit: Mark said he won’t leave until RUclips isn’t fun, but I have a feeling Jack will be announcing his retirement within the next few years (at least from YT, maybe not the podcast)
I'm 14 right now lol
@Tristan1886 Well, now! Nice to see someone who shares the same birthday as me, even though I'm actually gonna be turning 32 this year.
Also, I kinda get the sentiments coming from these comments, hell, I honestly miss the good ol' early days of RUclips myself. Oh, how I miss what life was like at being 15....

I just started my history course for this semester and my professor breifed us on Hegel and his study of history, one of the key takeaways being "all eras of history are equally relevant and all sacrifices are equally important". These guys may have just been making and posting videos, but they really did inspire an entire generation of creativity and individuality; the mental growth and development caused by each and every one of these guys is just as important as all the sacrifices of our ancestors and all the efforts of our future generations. I'm just glad I get to live in the first generation who gets to share these things with all these people around the globe, I love you all
Pass them down to your children. Never let these names die, never let this fire go. Let eternity know we lived at the same time as these giants.
And now MatPat too. They’re not wrong, we’re growing/grown up. It sucks.
All of this made me sad and cry. I want these channels to stay.😭
Life has to move on. Nothing is mean to last forever. Be great full you have the memories.
@dr.drizzy2 Even though I am sad, I am glad that they made me laugh, and more.
@@AJTheMetalSonic9496 now that the attitude
@dr.drizzy2 Hah, thanks man, hopefully there will be new channels that can bring the same feeling as them.
One comment I saw about Vanoss and Co. applies a lot to this video:
"I've always considered them the Banana Bus crew instead of 'The Vanoss crew' because over the years they've been been getting off at their own stops".
And what Jack said is true, we've all changed not just the people we used to watch. Everyone has to grow up and move on.
When Markiplier started speaking and how it sounded like he was about to cry almost made me cry 😭
I've forgotten how fast my life has flown by... This brought reality back to me.
Now to add to this is MatPat soon stepping down as the host for the Gametheory/theories channels..
This hits harder after watching Matthew Patrick’s goodbye video.
This hit like a freaking airplane bro. Started crying during the Mark section😭
I literally cried because nostalgia hits way to hard for me to handle
"Don't cry because it ended, be happy because it happened" such true words
this hits even harder now that matpat made that annoucement
2023 was a year full of betrayal from most RUclipsrs. RUclipsrs who were exposed for doing such horrible things like being predators, liars, narcissists and just douchebags. And while they tried to come back and continue they’re careers, they simply cannot, because they betrayed our trust. They cannot have us as fans anymore because of that betrayal. However, it is refreshing to have other RUclipsrs like Markiplier, Jacksepticeye, CoryxKenshin, MatPat (have a great retirement), DanTDM, MrBeast and many more being the greatest people on the internet, with they’re kindness and generosity. But either way, it’s heartbreaking to know how many RUclipsrs made apology videos last year, because that’s how many times we were betrayed by them. So hopefully, 2024 will be different. Not off to the best start, but I pray it gets better.❤
mark havent retired yet?
This year doesn't have to be the best. It just has to be the one where we heal and move from the past!
@@EmanuelRrasi Very true.
Yeah I felt sad knowing konekokitten was a bad person all along
Dude you know it’s over when Markiplier cries
Welp, we're getting old doesn't mean it's the end of our inner kid died along the way, I will treasure all of those vids growing up with them.
Damn that is one way of finding out Team Edge is done 😢
I’m scared, I’m afraid, I don’t think I’m ready, but life isn’t a game, you can’t stall things out forever, you can just pause to breathe, you’ll eventually have to grow up, and the harder it will be if you try to avoid it
I’m afraid of change, but I understand, it’s for the better
Also, break yet add to the sad tone, you’ll now have to add Matpat to the list
The Jacksepticeye one hits hard because of how true it is. I miss how I used to feel watching his and many other of my favourite childhood youtubers' videos. I wish I could go back to that time in my life, but sadly I can't.
It’s the end of an era cuz dan was right we aren’t kids anymore we have all grown up but sometimes we just go back to our childhood memories and watch the classic RUclips videos.
Sadness and depression: exist
Mark: Let's change that
Mark: pain doesn’t define you
My right ear has no clue why my left ear is crying
I love this one. Best comment about this.
I almost feel like life keeps catching up to me in so many unexpected yet very sad ways. All my heroes are leaving Stampy and MatPat meant so much to me it’s never gonna feel the same. The thing Sean (jacksepticeye) said is very true and it’s scary. I’m now 20 and I wanna go back to simpler times back when everything made sense but I can’t my childhood is leaving me and change is frightening to me. These legends though in this video and many more are just the best to mark, Sean, mat, Dan, Stampy aka Joseph, Cory, Dawko, sparklez, Ian, Anthony, and squid thank you guys all so much you mean the world to me and many others and there’s so many great people on the internet I can’t name every single one of them but they’re out there and you are liked and loved by generations of audiences of various ages so from the bottom of my weeping heart thank you for making memories.
Markiplier is the father we never asked for, but all most definitely needed
my left ear is crying out all the mucus within it 😭
Well as they said we're all grown up.
i hate growing up
I'm still in high-school dude. I'm not ready to be an adult. I just miss when I was a little kid and came back home to watch these awesome folk. It hurts man...
The new era of skibidi toilet and Smurf cat
Dude if matpat would have been there at the end saying thank you while crying, i tell you as a man i would have had waterfalls. LITERAL WATERFALLS in my room rn flooded.
We may grow up, but deep down we all have that inner child. Give the most serious adult an opportunity to act like a kid, and I’ll bet my soul they’ll enjoy every last second. Nothing feels better than those moments of reliving your childhood as an adult. So kids, make as many memories as you can. Before they become too rare to spot as an adult.
My these legends lay to rest to peace, and pave the road that they have made, for new successors to continue it.
Good buy old friends and may you live on in our hearts
It's the way I got this video on my FYP just as MatPat announces his retirement. Man...
my left ear was so upset to hear this, my right ear has no idea
Love this one
"You aren't kids anymore."
Everyone felt that..
"Know you don't you just miss the feeling you felt watching"
The amazing thing about this platform is even if you forget you can always attempt to find the video as it’s almost certainly on hear of the channels still up which is always nice if you have terrible memory
I meant if instead off of in between hear and the channels
And now MatPat is joining the group, they'll all be missed.
I remember watching most of these guys for most of my life. (Still watch Vanoss, Mark, Sean, and Dan). Watching this made me tear up because I couldn't believe it's been this long that I've watched them. I grew up with these men, and I appreciate them so much. Especially Markiplier and DanTDM because I watched them the most. I can not thank them enough for the joy they brought me whenever I watched their videos. I haven't been doing the best lately, so watching them say this made my day so much better. Thank you so much ❤❤❤
This made me cry.... Mark, dan, jack, stampy, and popularmmos were my childhood and im starting highschool tomorrow....
"well i guess im just afraid" .. "there is nothing to be afraid of time will change and along with it brings new joy"
Team edge and matpat were and still are my childhood. When team edge announced that they're done I wasn't really sad about it because their videos were getting kinda boring without Bobby. But matpat's goodbye video broke me. He is the reason why I love fnaf so much, the franchise won't be the same without him. I literally cried when I watched his video, the last time I cried so much over a youtuber was with tecknoblades' death, DEATH, and Matt's not even leaving for good yet. He'll still be behind the camera and on GTLive until the summer. That alone shows how much I love him, care about him and appreciate him. I'll miss him so much. 💔
We need to add game theory to the mix now.
yup sad to see him go
The second generation of the internet is upon us.
Edit: I meant to say second generation of RUclips, my bad.
Though this is probably the third generation of RUclips.
May it prosper as we once did ✊️
There are worlds buried under your worlds, your feet rest on Ozymandian sands. There have been eras of internet long before yours, or ours, or theirs. And these all have passed, into the night and into the deep. As ours passes. And the next shall pass, and the next.
Ask about the old days, before the internet was video. Before playing games to an audience was real, ask about the old days to those who were there. You will find words greater and more vibrant than yours, in the nostalgia of the old. And now, you're coming to find them in yourself. Congratulations. Time has passed along.

dude ive been looking for this thank you so much!
Team edge just stopping hits different. I remember watching them on my mother tablet and just laughing. But we all do have to grow up sometime, and nothing lasts forever
Im glad theyre aware of their influence
Man, when I was in grade school to my high school years, I used to watch these guys a lot, especially Mark, Dan, the Banana Bus crew (Evan's videos in particular), & Sean. But now Im out of school, struggling to land a good job, & managing a good income so I can go to a tech school. Things really were easier when you didnt have so much to worry about
MARKPLIER CRYING IS JUST… ☹️
The way Jack put it hit so hard, because looking at it from that perspective, yeah. That's exactly what it is. I miss going to school with the friends I'd made and then going home and watching all my favorite channels like Dan, Mark, Jack and Stampy. Now I have responsibilities, a job, a wife, and life is harder than ever. But even then I still manage to handle it all well while still getting to enjoy the content I watched way back when.
stampy, mark, dan, mat, and cory were some of the first youtubers i watched same with vanos crew and h20 delirious and
penguinz0
markipliers was probably the saddest one here. when i started watching him, i was a nobody. i wasnt a creator, or anything. but now im growing up. im almost an adult, i already have a part-time job, im close to graduating high school, and i have over 1k subs. hearing markiplier say that makes me really happy. ive improved in art a lot over these past few years that ive started uploading, and im pretty proud of myself. and hearing markiplier indirectly say hes proud of me makes me so much happier. hes like the dad i barely ever got to have. thank you markiplier, thank you to all the youtubers from my childhood and everybody elses. youve really changed mine, and everyones lives for the better.
I checked out your channel and i gotta say your art improved a lot, it looks dang good. keep it up bro :)
@@dr.paninozzo2421 thank you
1:05 Did someone just understood how am I feeling wtf?
Just because I'm legally an adult, doesn't mean I am mentally...
its so weird watching these as im still a kid, a shell of one sure, but I'm 14, i was about 5 or 6 in these guys' prime, like they *were* my formative years and still are.
Man you... just triggered a whole ride of emotions...
My brain still hasn't processed MatPat's retirement. 😢
Why is everybody leaving ? :(
I mean it's been more than 10 years to some of em, and they now have a life to live. It's time for them to move on I guess.
On top of them being older and wanting a life beyond content creation and appeasing fans.. RUclips just isn’t very profitable/enjoyable for the content creators anymore due to in-numerous reasons.
Lot of it is cause they grew up and want to do other things. Some stay and keep doing what they're doing. But, some want to move on and semi retire or do other things.
their all old now.. it’s just a mix of doing it for so long, they all have families now, their probably burnt out and most likely bored.. i couldn’t imagine doing youtube and working so hard like that for like 10 years or more.. they deserve to finally get a break but my heart also breaks

I love markiplier just something about him that hits home and hes brought the best content, laughs, and just happy moments in life.
Both my mind and body after getting out of middle school have been at a constant fight between moving on and not letting go
This makes me sad, in a happy way.
You’re welcome
@@dr.drizzy2 Thanks ✌️
Despite everything, PewDiePie was a huge comfort for me as a kid. His energy and variety in videos was just perfectly entertaining for my 10 year old brain, and the way he engaged his fans made me feel like I was coming home to a friend 🥲
Bro markiplier got me balling over here😢
Nah bro u cant make an emotional vid like that and only let my left ear listen 😭🔥
YOU MADE MARKI CRY NO
