NGL.. when he said "Are you really at the back of the line if you turn around and face the other way? Now you're first in your own line!" That hit deeper than I expected
I see Jon finally freed his family from the dungeons of the RAID devs only to have them immediately captured by the Dislyte devs. He truly is the Liam Neeson of RUclipsrs.
@@glipglop1412 I understand that everybody needs money, that is fair and i'm not against Ads. But it just looks like he makes videos because he getting sponsored (Last year or so). And this last video is just a big Adv.
I've seen a rise in the autoclicker/automated genre and I've seen games brag about it as a SELLING POINT "you can idle and level your characters!!!" why would I want to play a game (tm) that doesn't require me to play it? It's not even a game at that point.
@@jaayse Quite a few. Admitted its best years are behind it at this point and it's dropped off the top 20 most earning games on the store but it's still making a pretty penny off the existing player-base. Like most gacha games the tactic is to pull as many people in, in your first year with a shit ton of ads and then rely on milking your long time customers for as long as possible before closing the game. Of course some games like Fg/o and Genshin break that trend and seem to pull in new players constantly. But most gachas like Raid follow the above.
I feel like if Jon started a Patreon he probably wouldn't have to worry about finding sponsors- Specifically worry about finding sponsors who require you dedicate an entire video towards their product that approximately two people will actually download and play.
@@oceanfan7880 I wouldn't consider it "sucking money from people". You only need to support him if you want to. I support a few people on Patreon not because I feel _obligated_ to, but because I really like their work and I want to support what they're doing so that they *don't* have to rely on things like Raid: Shadow Legends being slapped on everything everywhere and taking up almost two minutes of their videos. Plus, he could do perks like early video access, shoutouts, behind the scenes stuff and maybe even an exclusive Discord or something like that. It would be a cool idea.
At the very least he still did his best to make this a legitamtely entertaining video despite it having to be a dedicated ad vid. Does suck that he has to do so many ads but he makes the best out of what he's given
I remember when ads started becoming a thing on RUclips and everyone would hate on content creators and call them sellouts. ...I never thought I'd want that back.
JONTRON! Jon, we need your help, she’s back, Gwyneth Paltrow, she has made another Netflix show, it is titled “Love, Sex, and Goop” we need you to send her back to the pit from where she came
@@MoeMoon I was going to say the fiery pits of the nether world or Jontron’s sespit mentioned in the goop lab video, but nowadays, with Amphibia ended, and Owl House on its way out, that might be more fitting for someone who is evil enough to spread misinformation for their own benefit
Jon I am with other comments. I think most of us would directly pay to a patreon or something along the lines to help support future uploads. Thanks for the content over the years
This is pretty shameless and his recent videos aren't generally good enough to warrant a Patreon I think. Goop 1&2 we're funny but kid nation, boating licence, etc weren't that great. I miss the old game and movie reviews Jon is somewhat based, but this shameless money grubbing is going to ruin that and he'll wind up like every other "content creator"
If it meant he'd go back to the content he made before the hiatus, I would GLADLY support his patreon. You can really tell when he went "It's not worth spending months on a video just to get demonetized, so I'm gonna stop putting effort in"
@@fazori You're right of course but I doubt TC was talking about being burned financially but by losing subs. Jons been on a slow downward spiral of subs since the start of the year because people see him as greedy and only making content for the sake of money. This video definitely doesn't change that perception. In the short term this ad is going to bring him a lot of money but if he continues down this road he's going to lose subs and worse he's going to lose views. *tl'dr* - It's that old folly of focusing on the present rather than looking at the long term. See the current US inflation issues for a pretty blatant example.
@@kashsmith6181 it's less about the length of the video than the length of the ad. Most ads are only for like, a minute. This one is 7. So either he went above and beyond for this ad or they paid a TON
He's done videos like these for years, the only difference was it used to be for big name/popular games like Smite and Far Cry Primal. Because of his politics/controversies related to politics he isn't able to do sponsored videos for games like those anymore. Hell even for the "less contentious" content creators I see all they're able to do anymore for sponsors is also either mobile games or things like Raycon earbuds, Ridge Wallet, etc. Also shouldering the responsibility of a Patreon is probably something he would rather not do if he can help it. If you're already well-off and also getting paid decent sponsor money for brief ads for some mobile games like Jon probably is then he's not going to do a Patreon unless he was really hurting. And without a Patreon he can do videos at his leisure and not be beholden to promises offered for tiered patrons and so forth. RUclips is a different place than it was when JonTron was peaking as a content creator (when he did reviews of video games, when he had that intro, Jacques as a side character), as were his relations with other creators and his audience before...things happened, and the content he chooses to do now is also different (while retaining his characteristic personality). In short, everything has gone to complete and utter shit. But Jon is maintaining pretty well I'd say. And his videos are still good. So that counts for something I think.
With the type of game this is, there's no way Jon actually plays it or the multitude of other similar games like Raid and other shit mobile wallet drainers he's peddled.
So, this is essentially a massive ad for Dislyte and Jon on some form of chemical that induces viewers to be hypnotically induced into watching him. I have no idea where this was going, or meant to go. But I loved and hated it all together. What an emotional video.
I love JonTron with all my heart... but dear God I wish these shitass mobile game companies would put half as much of their budget into their trash games instead of advertising
Ehh, he made it entertaining. I'm fine with it. Though if he's doing sponsorship deals in separate videos, it's a little annoying to also have to put up with them in-between the videos themselves, too, but whatever. It's not like I'm turning off my adblocker for him, I'll deal with it.
the amount of anger and respect i felt simultaneously when it turned out the entire skit was a mobile game ad i don't think can be achieved anywhere else
I have to say, them Dislyte folks better have paid Jon one fat cheque for this one. I don't know any other RUclipsr who has gone this far for just one ad read. The creativity on this one is actually worth more than any game out there right now!
I still think Jon is funny as hell, but his newer content really does feel like too much of the focus is on production value instead of really solid writing/jokes.
@@MouseGoat that's because back then he wasn't a full time youtuber and RUclips itself was better. Now you gotta have a sponsor take any amount of money. And the sponsors suck most of the time.
I love you Jon-you’re hilarious and charismatic-but you just duped me into watching an ad disguised as content, and that seems to violate some implicit agreement between creator and consumer. Start a Patreon!!
I guarantee that if he starts a Patreon he won't get shit. I've seen so many creators try to do just that and all the people asking don't donate a cent. Jon isn't that stupid, and people don't know what they want and will break a promise that won't effect them. I'd rather Jon do this and get reliable payment than expect degens on the internet with no job to give him 5 bucks a month just so he doesn't inconvenience them with an occasional ad. He needs to support his channel the way he sees most fit, would you trust strangers on the internet to put food on your table?
@@pearlysplayhouse7761 could you give examples of creators (of similar size to jon's) trying patreon and not have it work out? your guarantee isnt really saying much. If Jon was able to provide some form content on patreon then it seems pretty likely that there would be some income generated from there, especially if he posted stuff there consistently.
@@connor5982 no, cause at the end of the day I don't like fans telling content creators what to do, because none of us know his personal life and connect with him to even deserve the right to give advice. He wasnt your real life friend, you just like his art
@@pearlysplayhouse7761 @Pearly's Playhouse well I understand where your coming from, but in most cases stuff like this is more of a suggestion. Currently, a lot of the complaints from fans seem to be more related to Jon's upload schedule. Don't you think that some people would appreciate extra content whether that be updates or behind the scenes?
I like the duality in the comments. The people who haven’t finished the video yet celebrating the upload frequency and the people who have seen the whole video and are pissed off that it’s just a big elaborate advert.
Wait was this literally just a giant ad? I don’t know if I’m impressed at how easy he can get that money or if I’m disappointed he tricked us into watching an ad.
JonTron's ads for these mobile game sponsors are so thorough in their passive-aggressive snark and not-so-subtle shade that I'm surprised they still keep throwing money at him.
Isn't it weird games use 'addicting' as a positive trait in advertising? I don't go "yeah these meds are great, they're so addicting" or go "yeah I have a shopping addiction, it's great"
The only thing I can think of are those old cigarette ads back in the 40s and 50s before smoking was seen as a bad thing and regulated by the government.
@@HiGlowie It's kinda sad too because when mobile games started there was this excitement about them being the next big thing, and now the biggest games are glorified casino games. If anything describes itself as having "addictive gameplay" I see it as a big red flag, cause they're not there to help you have a good time, but to keep you there as long as possible.
"Are you really at the back of the line, if you turn around, and face the other way? No. Now you made your own line" Is a surprisingly uplifting quote lmfao
@@Apudurangdinya Did you really want to follow that line? Or is the end of that line merely where the world wanted you to be? Do you go your own way despite the new arrivals following the metaphorical line disliking you for it? Or do you follow what other people want you to become?
Kudos for not turning the comment section off. You know what you did and what you'll get for that. Thats right. A one or two fuck you Jon. But we still love you, Jon. Just trust yourself and give us what you think is funny. We sure think its funny too. Start a patreon and go nuts. We dont care about post production. Fuck that. Go with the flow!
It's probably too much ask, but I want to see Jon actually PLAY the mobile games he keeps getting sponsored by, if only because it means he'd be doing a game review and that he'd be contractually obligated to bring Jaques out of retirement.
@@bianchi2425 It's sad to see him drift towards just watching random stuff on the Internet (a few are notable though, for example flex-tape and that one series with children building their own little society). I thoroughly enjoyed him playing weird obscure retro-games and commenting on low-budget movies/series... at least those videos are still up and the good moments are forever in my memory.
Come on, man. You can't possibly be happy with this. I know you care a lot about your work. I'd gladly pay 5 bucks monthly on patreon if it meant never seeing this bullshit again.
Dislyte feels like if genshin impact and raid had an illegitimate child Aggressive advertising plus "hey!!! Do you want to pay 100 dollars for a cardboard cutout of a hot guy or lady???"
Dislyte actually isn't like the trailers. It's a typical turn based gatcha yes, but with plenty of its own unique style with graphics that are really appealing. It's vibe is music and the summon screen let's you be a, "mini DJ." It's got its quirks that keep me playing for now. I don't know if I see much playability for a long time though. I recommend giving it a try though
So accurate - get hooked on by the title, slowly gain interest in the subject, peak at something that gets teased halfway, only to never get the desired resolution as the second half drowns out what you wanted to know more about before.
To be honest the "if you're at the back of the line turn aroundand become the front of it" idea is honestly straight out of kamina'a mouth Edit: i figured all the GL fans would like this... I was right!
The TITs talk actually made me optimistic and excited about the game, since you can see pretty cool art and concepts for the game in the slides. Then I saw gameplay and went right back to being sad.
Yeah it’s just another mobile idle rpg game with a gatcha system that will more than likely push the player to want to spend money once the spectacle of flashy skills and characters wear off like most do.
Simple fact about the internet, if a game developer has to pay content creators to promote its game, it's probably because the gameplay isn't attractive
If ya want a decent gatcha game try Sdorica, nice art style, music, and the characters and story are more than surface level, and the gameplay is more engaging than watch your guys fight.
Today I had one of the worst sleeps I've had in a long time, with super weird dreams that made absolutely no sense. This vídeo was like a continuation of that.
It honestly is concerning how many people in this comment section are so married to Jon in there own minds that Jon could literally take a dump in there morning cereal and they would probably still like it. I enjoy jontron as much as the next guy but there’s a difference between making a video that has an add in it and making a video that is an add and I think a lot of people are either unwilling or unable to see that
Man this guy nailed the ted talk intonation and tone, the redundancy of concepts and phrases, reducing complex concepts in simple one step process. Perfect he analysed it well. The self deprecating jokes and quirky gait and science-y jargon
Jontron I miss when you would review shows and movies, I’d love another goosebumps/are you afraid of the dark special again and I love when you did old scary games!
I have come to appreciate the not so consistent uploads. We are spoiled in current times where you can watch a whole season of your favourite show in one night instead of having to wait for a certain time on a certain day of the week on a certain channel. There was a time when if you had a favourite show you would have to stop what your doing at 7 pm on a Friday and get home to watch the new episode of your favourite show and Friends and family would meet up and watch the the show together. My point is we are in such a live in the moment time in history, some times it’s good to have something to look forward to even if it’s just the little things and ti me the waiting makes it that much better experience wise
Just so you know what you're getting into: - 1% to get legendary characters - There's a special elemental affinity that has its own pool too - 120 pulls for pity breaker - Gear with unique stats (korean grinding) - There are some espers that only appear in ripples (raid like instances in the chat, channel locked) that only have 20 entries, and said esper is actually top tier for most content. - It's published by Lilith Games.
Chapter 15: The Realization And in that moment, Jon looked at himself in shock of what he had become, he stood there silent, with the realization of his head, he truly became what he opposed - in his eyes, he became what he tried to slay, he became the enemy, he became the harbinger...of shitty mobile games. He truly lived long enough to see himself become the villain
The end times are upon us. I remember when Jon used to upload frequent masterpieces, now and entire vid is just an ad? I know how reasons why but something like this is discouraging to one of his biggest fans. Also can't wait for the next one to come out 3 months from now rip
Advertisers usually want to see their sponsored ad reads before they greenlight them into videos. Imagine if this was just an elaborate ploy to have them sit through the longest ad read for review before greenlighting it.
@@Lanoman123 so I gave it a chance, I played it for at least 2hrs and MY GOD. It was a god damn snoozefest, the gameplay is uninspired and overused, the story is bland, the character design look like knockoff League clones, the only thing it has going for it is its artsyle, which isn't even that good.

So, this is essentially a massive ad for Dislyte and Jon on some form of chemical that induces viewers to be hypnotically induced into watching him. I have no idea where this was going, or meant to go. But I loved and hated it all together. What an emotional video.
It puts roller coasters to shame really
I'm ashamed how far I made it into the video before I realized the entire thing was an elaborate advertisment.
And I still enjoyed ever second.
I feel the same way Ralphie from A Christmas Story felt when he realized his favorite show was just a commercial.
I watched a 7 minute ad for no reason other than it was Jon. Whatever Dislyte paid you, it wasn't enough.
"Be the front of your very own line"
That literally sounds like something an actual motivation speaker would say!!! 😂😂
Clap at the person in the mirror.
Lol
I know a particular German speaker who moved an entire nation that Jon would probably love /watch?v=abQ9wvPLKEY
I love JonTron with all my heart... but dear God I wish these shitass mobile game companies would put half as much of their budget into their trash games instead of advertising
Sadly that will NEVER happen... The money they make from the sorry souls that feed THOUSANDS per person will never stop.
True story
Hey man, Chinese malware ain't gonna download itself.
capitalism
@@mayathepsychiic If you think that's all there is behind this Chinese spyware with colossal advertising budgets, you're wrong.
Should have been “I will literally never recover from making this video.”
Thank you Jon, very cool! I will literally never even think about Dislyte again after leaving this page.
based
You just know that he hid under the desk at the end because he's fully aware of the flak he's going to cop.
Ehh, he made it entertaining. I'm fine with it.
Though if he's doing sponsorship deals in separate videos, it's a little annoying to also have to put up with them in-between the videos themselves, too, but whatever. It's not like I'm turning off my adblocker for him, I'll deal with it.
that's probably where the racism is kept too. /watch?v=abQ9wvPLKEY
the amount of anger and respect i felt simultaneously when it turned out the entire skit was a mobile game ad i don't think can be achieved anywhere else
racists do some pretty dumbfounded things huh? /watch?v=abQ9wvPLKEY
how is it that watching this a 2x speed still feels like an hour long of torture
I have to say, them Dislyte folks better have paid Jon one fat cheque for this one. I don't know any other RUclipsr who has gone this far for just one ad read.
The creativity on this one is actually worth more than any game out there right now!
I do agree with you, dislyte is a incredibly low bar to pass lmao
and tarnishing a pretty spotless reputation while doing it! hope that was a big bag!
Well matpat just did a whole video on an ad read lol. Still love Jon though.
"worth more than any game out there right now!"
aight chill lmao
You're right! Now I'm going to go to JonTron for all my commercial-watching purposes! JonTron makes the funniest commercials out there :)
I love how Jon is like”don’t worry … everything is fine” after pointing out the constant upload
Then he goes on a 6+ months hiatus
@Don't Read My Profile Photo I will respect your wishes
@Don't Read My Profile Photo Ok.
@Don't Read My Profile Photo great minecraft tutorials glad i checked
@Don't Read My Profile Photo i ain't gon read nothin!
E.
This guy went from being an angry retro game reviewer to the best smartphone shovel ware peddler. What a journey.
He also did that quirky lil wh!tə $uprəmacy bit a few years ago too.
I will occasionally return to the dai katana video
So true, but im confused why hes content has become so soul less and shilling.
Is this prehabs a cry for help? :U
I still think Jon is funny as hell, but his newer content really does feel like too much of the focus is on production value instead of really solid writing/jokes.
@@MouseGoat that's because back then he wasn't a full time youtuber and RUclips itself was better. Now you gotta have a sponsor take any amount of money. And the sponsors suck most of the time.
I love you Jon-you’re hilarious and charismatic-but you just duped me into watching an ad disguised as content, and that seems to violate some implicit agreement between creator and consumer. Start a Patreon!!
I guarantee that if he starts a Patreon he won't get shit. I've seen so many creators try to do just that and all the people asking don't donate a cent. Jon isn't that stupid, and people don't know what they want and will break a promise that won't effect them. I'd rather Jon do this and get reliable payment than expect degens on the internet with no job to give him 5 bucks a month just so he doesn't inconvenience them with an occasional ad. He needs to support his channel the way he sees most fit, would you trust strangers on the internet to put food on your table?
@@pearlysplayhouse7761 could you give examples of creators (of similar size to jon's) trying patreon and not have it work out? your guarantee isnt really saying much. If Jon was able to provide some form content on patreon then it seems pretty likely that there would be some income generated from there, especially if he posted stuff there consistently.
@@connor5982 no, cause at the end of the day I don't like fans telling content creators what to do, because none of us know his personal life and connect with him to even deserve the right to give advice. He wasnt your real life friend, you just like his art
@@pearlysplayhouse7761 @Pearly's Playhouse well I understand where your coming from, but in most cases stuff like this is more of a suggestion. Currently, a lot of the complaints from fans seem to be more related to Jon's upload schedule. Don't you think that some people would appreciate extra content whether that be updates or behind the scenes?
@@connor5982 would you work harder at your job if someone asked you to without extra pay?
I like the duality in the comments. The people who haven’t finished the video yet celebrating the upload frequency and the people who have seen the whole video and are pissed off that it’s just a big elaborate advert.
thing is, there never was an upload schedule. It is just JonTron being paid and making a TedTalk about it
For sure. Would have liked more of a lampooning about the “inspirational” over abundance of shallow Ted talks rather than… the 90 percent advert
Video is still funny
Spoiler alert!
Still the best elaborate advert on youtube
No one sells cheap chinese mobile games like the master himself JonTron
I guess racism is viewed favorably in China /watch?v=abQ9wvPLKEY
Wait was this literally just a giant ad? I don’t know if I’m impressed at how easy he can get that money or if I’m disappointed he tricked us into watching an ad.
This really was just an ad to get more filthy money.
I mean. I giggled. Not gonna play the game. Glad Jon's getting paid tho.
Well he said we would not recover, at least the machine is honest in its manipulation
disappointed for sure.
And the worst part is Dislyte is a worse game than RAID. Lol. Shameless.
4:03 was the moment I understood what the entire purpose of the video was for…. And I’m sadly both “am” and “am not” surprised.
JonTron's ads for these mobile game sponsors are so thorough in their passive-aggressive snark and not-so-subtle shade that I'm surprised they still keep throwing money at him.
they don't care if it's ironic. they only care for the numbers
Isn't it weird games use 'addicting' as a positive trait in advertising? I don't go "yeah these meds are great, they're so addicting" or go "yeah I have a shopping addiction, it's great"
The only thing I can think of are those old cigarette ads back in the 40s and 50s before smoking was seen as a bad thing and regulated by the government.
That’s interesting, I didn’t notice that, but I’m glad you did. Kind of a sad state of affairs we are in regarding shit mobile games today.
@@HiGlowie It's kinda sad too because when mobile games started there was this excitement about them being the next big thing, and now the biggest games are glorified casino games. If anything describes itself as having "addictive gameplay" I see it as a big red flag, cause they're not there to help you have a good time, but to keep you there as long as possible.
@@MisterDutch93 oh absolutely, when they'd talk about the "addictive flavour" or a cigarette
I never understood it either. I feel guilty when I don't wanna do something else to play videogames instead :v
"Are you really at the back of the line, if you turn around, and face the other way? No. Now you made your own line"
Is a surprisingly uplifting quote lmfao
But... You won't be in the place you want to be, and new people arrived for the line will asked, excuse me, what the hell are you doing ?
@@Apudurangdinya Did you really want to follow that line? Or is the end of that line merely where the world wanted you to be?
Do you go your own way despite the new arrivals following the metaphorical line disliking you for it? Or do you follow what other people want you to become?
Kudos for not turning the comment section off. You know what you did and what you'll get for that. Thats right. A one or two fuck you Jon. But we still love you, Jon. Just trust yourself and give us what you think is funny. We sure think its funny too. Start a patreon and go nuts. We dont care about post production. Fuck that. Go with the flow!

The master has spoken.
Eww that's rough.
@Don't Read My Profile Photo ok
It's okay Jon. I didn't plan on recovering, even before watching this video.
I am so sorry
This may have surpassed Jack to the Future as one of the videos of all time
It's probably too much ask, but I want to see Jon actually PLAY the mobile games he keeps getting sponsored by, if only because it means he'd be doing a game review and that he'd be contractually obligated to bring Jaques out of retirement.
It would be nice to see Jaques again
Holy shit Jaques. Haven't heard of him in FOREVER. Is he even alive still?
Jaques died prolly
I honestly forgot he even did game reviews before. It’s been so long
@@longsnoutpug7248 I've really been wondering that myself... /:
All it took was the economy to tank and the threat of mutually assured destruction to get Jon to upload more than once in a year.

no more mean tweets though

@@bianchi2425 It's sad to see him drift towards just watching random stuff on the Internet (a few are notable though, for example flex-tape and that one series with children building their own little society). I thoroughly enjoyed him playing weird obscure retro-games and commenting on low-budget movies/series... at least those videos are still up and the good moments are forever in my memory.
Come on, man. You can't possibly be happy with this. I know you care a lot about your work. I'd gladly pay 5 bucks monthly on patreon if it meant never seeing this bullshit again.
Ditto
I'd rather pay 10 a month then ever see mobile trash again

Dislyte feels like if genshin impact and raid had an illegitimate child
Aggressive advertising plus "hey!!! Do you want to pay 100 dollars for a cardboard cutout of a hot guy or lady???"
Dislyte actually isn't like the trailers. It's a typical turn based gatcha yes, but with plenty of its own unique style with graphics that are really appealing. It's vibe is music and the summon screen let's you be a, "mini DJ." It's got its quirks that keep me playing for now. I don't know if I see much playability for a long time though. I recommend giving it a try though
Jon unfortunately needs that money, been advertising Raid and other games since a long time ago. I can understand it I guess.
At least Genshin has actual gameplay.

The TITs talk actually made me optimistic and excited about the game, since you can see pretty cool art and concepts for the game in the slides. Then I saw gameplay and went right back to being sad.
Yeah it’s just another mobile idle rpg game with a gatcha system that will more than likely push the player to want to spend money once the spectacle of flashy skills and characters wear off like most do.
Simple fact about the internet, if a game developer has to pay content creators to promote its game, it's probably because the gameplay isn't attractive
@@ninjaqade879 I mean, advertising is important, but I see what you mean.

If ya want a decent gatcha game try Sdorica, nice art style, music, and the characters and story are more than surface level, and the gameplay is more engaging than watch your guys fight.

It honestly is concerning how many people in this comment section are so married to Jon in there own minds that Jon could literally take a dump in there morning cereal and they would probably still like it. I enjoy jontron as much as the next guy but there’s a difference between making a video that has an add in it and making a video that is an add and I think a lot of people are either unwilling or unable to see that

The title did not disappoint
It was a solid TED satire, despite being a satire filled with ads
I have come to appreciate the not so consistent uploads. We are spoiled in current times where you can watch a whole season of your favourite show in one night instead of having to wait for a certain time on a certain day of the week on a certain channel. There was a time when if you had a favourite show you would have to stop what your doing at 7 pm on a Friday and get home to watch the new episode of your favourite show and Friends and family would meet up and watch the the show together. My point is we are in such a live in the moment time in history, some times it’s good to have something to look forward to even if it’s just the little things and ti me the waiting makes it that much better experience wise

- 120 pulls for pity breaker
- Gear with unique stats (korean grinding)
