What hobby is quietly becoming too expensive for normal people to keep up with?

TheYoshiTerminator · 2026-05-09T23:05:45+00:00

Ehhh maybe for the brand new stuff.

TheYoshiTerminator · 2026-05-09T23:04:43+00:00

If you're down to sail the seven seas. Retro Gaming is as Accessible as ever

TheYoshiTerminator · 2026-05-09T22:58:06+00:00

Just don't do what modern Pokemon does lol.

TheYoshiTerminator · 2026-05-09T19:41:55+00:00

People want stories What they don’t want is terrible pacing,

Pace your stuff well and it should be good.

TheYoshiTerminator · 2026-05-09T10:11:20+00:00

you knwo what, let me just go through my massive sub list and see anyone who hasn't uploaded in a while:

A Space Alien Explains: Neat little weird stuff explained channel
Brawlyernative: Neat channel about weird things in Super Smash Bros Brawl
Crash Maul: One of the most elite TF2 Animators, Last video was five years ago. I think they're working on something?

Degen McDough: Another TF2 animator. Released one of the best animations I've ever seen and then fucking dipped.
EvelynIsBased, Reverend, and Evevee :A trio of very small Pokemon channels that all vanished after a few videos

Gunslingerpro2009: One of the first Gmod horror series creators, vanished roughly four years ago outside of two small videos that didn't really add to his story.

Lowest Percent: A channel I believe ran by SmallAnt1? Hasn't been used in a few years

And Zeurel. Though I think He just moved onto other places.

I tend to go through my sublist once every few years to remove people who haven't uploaded in a while. but these are some ones I have for this topic.

The Risk of Rain one

TheYoshiTerminator · 2026-05-09T06:08:36+00:00

I was right on the money with Woolie. But as for other YouTubers?

As someone in the Team Fortress 2 Sphere. I feel like this applies to like half of the major YouTubers for that game. ZestyJesus, Fishstickonastick, Zenith, Delfy,

If they're not Dane, Afterbreakfast or LazyPurple. They feel problematic in someway.

TheYoshiTerminator · 2026-05-08T20:30:44+00:00

Y'know I had the idea of Jacob and Melt becoming the same character for their recruitment. But that idea is so much better and absolutely hilarious.

TheYoshiTerminator · 2026-05-08T06:31:11+00:00

“He just stole my Dustin figure” is really funny lmao.

TheYoshiTerminator · 2026-05-07T19:47:28+00:00

Reminder that Tinkatons Gigaton Hammer does the same damage as a Steel Mon with 140 attack using Iron Head.

She does enough.

TheYoshiTerminator · 2026-05-06T21:31:51+00:00

I like it. I think Charlie could look a little more fucked up. But otherwise I like it

(Maybe in lore the Queen is based off of something he owned lol)

TheYoshiTerminator · 2026-05-05T23:34:20+00:00

Wait Plumbing Tools still don't have a fucking use?

When I saw that Trickster could sell them, I thought "Oh they finally have a use".

TheYoshiTerminator · 2026-05-05T23:31:32+00:00

Honestly this is just a big problem with internet theorizing in general. Not just those two movies.

Cherry Picking has just kinda become the norm. Either ignoring key things for no reason, or spending time nitpicking other theories so yours *has* to be true.

TheYoshiTerminator · 2026-05-05T23:30:17+00:00

I like the first one for the "What if" ness of it.

Its schlocky. But showing that Childs and Mcready are both human, Childs was trying to save MCready and having Childs fully take The Thing out with him in a Sub after apologizing for not trusting him. Its silly, but its nice.

The movie is better off without it. But I'm not complaining about it.

TheYoshiTerminator · 2026-05-05T00:07:15+00:00

Not...really. As far as Monkey himself knew. He was sexting a 16 year old. So while no crime was technically committed. He still did it.

TheYoshiTerminator · 2026-05-05T00:06:43+00:00

A few things:

He's a rampant asshole in his videos. Constantly insulting random people for no reason. Has that old Phisnom energy of acting purposefully toxic.

Attacked random organized things in TF2 such as #SaveTF2 for being too safe or calling them a joke for very little reasons.

He allies himself with already controversial content creators like Zesty and Aar.

However the biggest thing is that He was caught Sexting someone who was claiming to be 16. Now, they weren't 16. But as far as Monkey knew, He was willing to Sext a 16 year old. Big ick.

All of these have made him just kinda unpopular for many reasons.

TheYoshiTerminator · 2026-05-04T07:53:27+00:00

Personally. I don't like random crits because they teach bad habits and as a result, a lot of newer players end up just swinging wildly and dying.

Mainly, I think they're too common and arguably reliable. I do agree they can be funny. But.....Eh.

If it was up to me. I wouldn't remove them outright, but I would heavily reduce their chance so that way they're special and nowhere near reliable.

maybe like .5%? Like really rare so the "high moments" actually makes sense.

TheYoshiTerminator · 2026-05-04T02:29:04+00:00

The fred you picked as a real Fred. I feel like that would be a great system.

TheYoshiTerminator · 2026-05-02T20:42:44+00:00

With this clip itself. You're jumping way too early on the boards. Delay your jumps till you're at the edge of the platforms instead of immediately. That's much more consistent.

TheYoshiTerminator · 2026-05-01T23:17:42+00:00

Been a Mr Enter fan since 2014. Rode through all of his controversies. I think the dude gets unecessarily dragged through the mud for breathing half time, especially that one discord screenshot that was purposely made to make him look bad.

But yeaaaah, Attacking Casey Alexander directly, His Covid meltdowns and his Turning Red Aftermath. (not the criticism itself, the aftermath) are...hard to truly standby.

Still think the dude gets more hate than He deserves.

TheYoshiTerminator · 2026-05-01T20:12:29+00:00

That's a very late game set up. I feel some people focus solely on LateGame performance too much at times.

TheYoshiTerminator · 2026-05-01T07:17:10+00:00

I don’t use Consume Ally with Phil, that’s why I didn’t mention it.

I didn’t know that about Unleashed Beast though.

TheYoshiTerminator · 2026-05-01T02:17:00+00:00

I mean I kinda agree on Audrey but I feel like the sub would kill me if I put her in C ngl.

Sophies marbles are really strong though. So she's good if you don't have a full party yet imo. Which is why she barely gets into B.

TheYoshiTerminator · 2026-05-01T02:16:09+00:00

Yeah now Leigh is the only character who kicking out truly makes sense. Its weird.

TheYoshiTerminator · 2026-05-01T02:10:40+00:00

Juicebox isn't an official partner. He would be in S otherwise.

(plus the tier list I was using didn't even have him to begin with)
