    I don't think you guys understand, this is incredible.

He's slowing down streaming, and returning to the original reason many of us loved him so much, while chasing a few of his own dreams in the process.

He's not going anywhere, we're not getting rid of this germ so easily.

    • @oacmd282
      @oacmd282 9 месяцев назад +11

      ⁠​⁠​⁠@@test-tl8dtI think it’s how he phrased it as “soft retirement” for me. It’s not just altering his modus operandi, but slowly increasing the interval between the content released. It feels like a build-up towards a full retirement, and this announcement is the first step. Jerma definitely deserves the rest he needs though and he has already been in the industry for so long. I’m happy for him relieving his burden but also can’t help but be a bit poignant? I don’t know the correct word for this

But also I think the way he's phrasing it is a bit, incorrect? I think the word retirement or soft retirement is a bit too strong for what he's actually doing. Hes still making content, just not his usual streaming content. Its probably gonna be a long time before he goes away for good.

  • @fermiLiquidDrinker
    @fermiLiquidDrinker 9 месяцев назад +36

    It's funny, like 6-7 years ago he semi-retired the original Jerma985 channel to stream, and now he's going to focus on the Jerma985 channel. Jerma's streamed _at least_ once a week or so for a decade, which I'd imagine gets pretty stressful after a while, and now he's got a stable (and probably pretty good) source of income that isn't a bunch of weird chat members. I hope Sus Guy gets to spend the rest of his career just having fun and doing what he likes doing.

  • @pixelsamuel
    @pixelsamuel 9 месяцев назад +35

    A few thoughts:
    - It feels a bit wrong to use the word "retirement" at all here, even in the phrase "soft retirement", because it's so far away from what retirement usually is. It evokes a feeling of finality that just isn't going to be happening here, as Jerma has made it clear that he will have *some* online presence for the foreseeable future. Jerma's age is a long-running joke in the community, but really he's a very young guy who is a good 20-30 years (give or take) from a 'normal' retirement age, which is part of why this feels so off-putting. If anything, maybe this should be rebranded as a switch over to a non-professional management of the channel since it won't be a primary income source anymore.
    - This wasn't mentioned in the video, but in the post-stream chat, Jerma indicated that there is a real, likely possibility that he may stop streaming indefinitely after a few years from now. This gives me conflicting feelings because it seemed like he genuinely enjoys streaming... and unlike other forms of work that one might enjoy, it doesn't seem like the sort of thing he'd ever have to stop doing outright (no major health, cost, or career conflicts if done on rare occasion). I can't help but wonder whether he truly enjoys doing the lower-energy "chill" streams, or if it's only the higher production acts that fulfill him in a meaningful way. I sincerely hope it's not the latter, because I would absolutely hate to find out that he has spent the last few years streaming as a means to an end rather than as a genuine passion of his, even with the understanding that it is a job and has been for quite a while. Whatever the case may be, I just hope that he will be honest with himself and the community, and not feel the need to keep streaming for the next few years for our sake if it's no longer a real passion of his.
    - On a brighter note, I'm incredibly excited to see where this next era of Jerma leads to! He has always had such a talent with video making, his older RUclips videos still really hold up to this day and are some of the best on the platform, so I can't wait to see what comes next. Honestly, the lower-budget "special" videos on the old channel such as Dork Cube, The Photos Are In, Castle Griffinsteed, and the original Jerma Rumbles all rival some of his larger Twitch productions in my mind. As entertaining as the Dollhouse, Baseball, and Carnival streams were, I don't feel myself itching to rewatch those the same way I do with the YT videos, and a huge part of that is the format difference between the platforms, with video production making it possible to highly edit and perfect aspects that you never quite could with a livestream. So no matter what content he decides to make, I know I'll be in for a good time!

He's shown himself to be an extremely creative person and by working like this, he'll be able to pour all of that into whatever the hell he wants to, rather than needing to work it in around an existing schedule.

    Shift away from Twitch and back to RUclips feels like a "this isnt as much fun as it used to be, imma go back to the old thing and hopefully that'll rekindle my enthusiasm". I totally get tha mentality because ive had similar experiences with hobbies and projects ive been involved in, but " going back" rarely rekindles the flame like I ever hoped it would. More often than not it makes me realize ther *is no going back* to how things used to be, and thats OK. We all change as does what we love and enjoy.
    The past few years its felt like Jerma has been increasingly looking for reasons to keep being a public facing "content creator" and has been finding fewer and fewer reasons to stay as one. TBH i would not be shocked if he had a formal retirement from public stuff in a few years time. We'll all miss him, but more than anything I just hope Jerma can keep whatever loves and passions he has going strong in his private life ❤
