    Today's video is deep and personal on many levels. This has been the hardest year of my life. It felt like I just jumped from disaster to another while barely surviving. It has been visually obvious to many long time viewers too. I talk about the home break in, my Dad's botched surgery, quitting Infinite Warfare, losing all my money, getting sucked into conspiracy theories, and all sorts of other crazy stuff. It has been rough, and hopefully by sharing my struggles, you can overcome your own.

      True, I didn’t like the movement
      Aw caused seizures lol, not even titan fall has that much exaggerated movement.
      Bops 3 was a wildcard and has the most broken system for greediest cod.
      Iw was the most generous and had the most realistic future and so much content that could get easily obtained.
      It’s zombies seemed like the only frowned upon thing for being “not cod” everything else was fine. People only cried about leaderboards

      I never played COD, but I still watching COD videos sometimes and it was Drift0r that really got me into it (until I discovered that the culture of the COD community is vastly different from Drift0r personality)
      I still watch most of his videos, including some interesting COD ones even tho COD itself is not really interesting to me anymore

  • @ThoseNonFlyGuys
    @ThoseNonFlyGuys 6 лет назад +95

    Dude I respect you as a person, not just your channel. I've been lurking here since your MW2 videos for almost 10 years now. I can't blame ya. I've seen the way CoD has gone and every new game I would think of you honestly even if I would just tune in to every other video. I've watched your channel grow and seen you as a person do what you enjoyed, and when the game got worst, I honestly wondered what you were gonna do. On top of this whole adpocolypse deal, how you are managing it is mind boggling. What I can honestly say is to maybe separate yourself from the whole CoD thing? You aren't a CoD gamer anymore, your a gamer in general. It will allow you to do what you want instead if being tagged as a CoD gamer which is now seen so badly by the gaming community. Keep it up dude, hope you see this from a fan here in Dallas.

    As a successful person who's very positive in general myself, I know what you feel. This year (just like in your case, entire 2017 plus late 2016) has been extremely difficult for me and my wife due to a cancer diagnosis. Life's a struggle no matter how successful and lucky we think we are, but we soldier on buddy! Be strong, and you will come up on top again. On a different note - love your channel, specifically all your BO3 videos throughout the last 2 years.

    Long time fan. To be honest I always thought your best content was when you went off topic. Your blog stuff, family stories and social commentaries were my most favorite. I never forgot your theory video on how to destroy the evil mirror from that dumb movie, it is probably my most favorite video on your whole damn channel. Keep up the good work and do what inspires you, it is your best content. If you build it, they will come. God Speed brother.

    Tbh I haven't been subbed to you for your call of duty videos for years, not because of you just because I moved on largely from CoD. But my main reason was you as a person, your outtakes on things, your philosophy videos, your personality, your honestly and intelligence etc. If anything I would prefer you to upload more of yourself in the future mate. Videos like this is why I'm subbed to you so keep up your spirits pal with much support from England

    I have absolutely no clue why Drift0r gets any flak from anyone, hes hands down the most honest youtuber out there yet everyone makes his job so hard.

    I have to say that this is my favorite video from a gamer. Your honesty is amazing. Im a recovering addict and I have been their, and its hell, but for someone like you with your popularity to speak about it openly and honestly is amazing. I hope kids listen to this and get something out of it, thanks

    I've recently been tapering down meds I've been taking for over 8 years and it's been a very similar experience.. very hard to describe but appreciate hearing your frank and honest account. It shows one isn't alone at a time like this.. and there is always light at the end of the tunnel! Great vid

    I haven't played CoD in roughly 2 years. I still watch every single one of your videos. I didn't subscribe to you for in-depth, or CoD content. I subscribed to you because of you. People just think of RUclipsrs as machines that just pump out content and don't fully see you as an actual person who dedicates so much time and energy to upload content, they don't feel how you feel when you upload content and they don't deal with all the bullshit that you have to deal with every minute with so many people being so god damn negative just because you are doing what is best for you.

    The fact you had an absolutely horrific year and I never even noticed a change in your demeanor in any of your vids, speaks to your strength of character. I normally hate these "personal" videos and never watch them, but this one I did for some reason.

  • @jlau317
    @jlau317 6 лет назад +6

    I usually watch these videos with my younger siblings, but this one is downright serious. I don't comment much, but videos where you swear that much are rare. Hopefully things will turn out better, later in the year.

    I feel that zoloft struggle. I almost lost the vision in my right eye because of it. There was an abnormality in between my eye and the front of my brain. This was 18 years ago and I'm doing fine. I was also on aderall and abilify and insurance dropped me at 21 and to this day I'll still wake up 3 hours into my sleep completely wired chewing on the inside of my my mouth and shaking wanting nothing more but to kill myself because I just couldn't handle it. I'm going strong and my life is so much better now. Driftor keep on it man I have faith in you :)

    Hey Drift, I've been around a touch; I have watched your vids since ~2011 with your BF3 vids. I got off cod for a very long time so I stopped watching your CoD in-depth videos, but I've been enjoying the new content with PUBG as well as other previous miscellany. You're a good guy that makes quality content. All I got to say is I hope that your health stays good, the views come in, and to not sweat the angry folks. Anyways, just a youtube comment but know that there is a fanbase that supports you and your approach.

    Just as many others are saying, for every shitty fan who turns on you at the smallest change on your youtube channel, there's tons of us who still support you no matter what you do. For the record, I haven't played a CoD since BO2 and I still watch almost all of your videos just because I love your style a lot.
    I'm sorry to hear that you've had such a hard year. I knew that not uploading IW videos would hurt you, but I wasn't expecting it to be as bad. Did you mention that you were getting out of meds in other video? If so, I'm sorry that I've missed it.
    Keep on with yor fantasic work, and good luck on your life man.

I have nothing but respect for you and I wish we could all give you a big subscriber hug. I've supported your vids since BO2 and will continue to do so because I've gotten to see past the videos themselves and I like the dude behind the mic. I like what he stands for and how he does life with his wife and doggos. You're awesome for being so vulnerable and sharing this with us and I wish you nothing but success in the future. Keep doing you, man. We love you for it.

    Drifter, I love you man, I watch all your videos. I don't even play any games that you do except BO3. I don't even like any of the other games you play!! I watch because I love hearing you talk about your life and all. I love your stories and your liveliness and all that. Man, it sounds like you got it hard playing a game you enjoy, while also getting love for the community for doing it. Might I suggest Rainbow Six Siege? If it's not fun to you, don't play it-but pls try it. You might like it and there are a lot of people out there who would watch it. It might not only be a great business opportunity, but also just a game that you enjoy playing. It's just a tip man, but I think you should try it. Also, forget all the people hating on you for what you do or do not play. They are watching for the wrong reasons. Love you man.
