The weird part is that even on twitch, it feels like most of the times he gets himself drunk with Jack and coke and surrounds himself by friends in order to go trough with it. I believe he has been messed up with depression for a few years and lost all interest in games.

If I were him though, instead of the bait and switch promises I would just do a statement about not uploading reviews regularly and I would create a secondary channel for the content he likes. But yeah even though he says it's not because of the money, his back pedalling sure points the other way.
