>Hates the hobby>Refuses to let it go
who?what?
>>98214466Traditional games?
>>98214493e-celeb cocksuckers are so weird, man. they all assume that we watch the same slop they do and know who they're talking about.
>>98214466It would be easier for him if you'd stop to watch him
>>98214631It's a form of main-character-syndrome by proxy.
>>98214466>>Hates the hobby>>Refuses to let it go/tg/ in a nutshell
>>98214602->>98214728
People like that don't care about the hobby, they care about drama that's gonna give them clicks. One step above /tg/ who just get mad at things for free. Don't know what that is btw but all sloptubers are the same
>>98214466From the thumbnail I assume this is a youtuber who started working with videos about some aspect of /tg/ and is now burnt out of turning his entertainment into a business instead of having a big boy job and doing fun things for fun. Sucks for him, should've listened to dad and gotten a real job.>>98214702>main-character-syndrome by proxySo OP is like a hype-man, living his entire life in function of other people's fame and renown, just there to go "he did not just say that" or "that's the man right there".
>>98218116I used to watch him way back when. He USED TO have a big boy job as a software engineer and decided to trade that with being a gaytuber. He’s from Minnesota so I don’t think he was getting paid “Silicon valley” level of stupid amount of money but it’s still one of the coziest and easiest fucking jobs (I am one). Specially compared with the stress of running a business hinged around making youtube videos.
>>98218289>software engineerShit, isn't that kind of job reatively easy to keep doing, even remotely, and still be able to have a fucking youtube channel (albeit slower) if you absolutely must engage your hobby that way? Sad to see I'm right about this kid, I almost resent youtube for feeding these kinds of illusions to kids.
>quits big boy job>expensive home studio renovation>not good enough. Rents studio space>expensive build out in studio spaceGee why am I not making money.
>>98218403My dad was a IT specialist that worked for a company that did contract work for various manufacturers and businesses with downtown office spaces. He was home 90-95% of the time. WIth the other 5-10% literally being "Hi, hello. Remember me? I'm just going to do some IT work here today while getting in the good graces of everyone that works here." Very rarely did he have to go in for emergency IT situations
>>98218681And mind you, he did IT work for Ethanol plants and other similar businesses. So it wasn't some mom and pop type IT work either. But for the days that he was home he usually spread out his work over the 8 hour period. Walked the hound dog whenever the weather was good, mowed the lawn it needed to be mowed, went to the store for things like getting stuff for dinner or buying new tools for his hobbies, fell asleep on the couch if he had gotten stuff done earlier than he expected, went out to the woodshop to make furniture, etc.
For the life of me I will never understand people who make their hobbies into full-time jobs. Wtf did they expect?
>>98214466Who?
>>98214631>e-celeb cocksuckersHow about you suck this e-celeb cock, stepbro?
>>98214466>>Hates the hobby>>Refuses to let it goMany such cases
>>98214466>>Hates the hobby>>Refuses to let it goOne of us, one of us!
>>98218681>>98218697Sounds comfy AF, are you close to him? I miss when hobbyists were just family men that had a different interest than the rest of the world, and sometimes talked about it with other like-minded people. Imagine if your dad ever tried to make a career out of making furniture on youtube.
>>98214631You'd be surprised how many e-celebs actually come to 4chan to bait post about themselves to read unfiltered shit with narcissistic fascination.
>>98214466Well it's how he makes money and he has no fall back.He was a software engineer but he has been out of the game for like ten years. He isn't employable anymore
>>98214466Who is this? What is he talking about?
>>98218697This is what they took from us.
>>98219899those jobs still exist, just probably rarer. i know, i have one
>>98218630I think a ton of people got psyop'd by a period on youtube where there were so many hundreds of millions of bots that channels were seeing explosive growth for several years. That lead people to believe that they needed to full-time invest in being youtubers because they'd be able to make even more money because being able to dedicate all their free time to the channel would improve quality, turn-around time on videos, payout from sponsorship deals, and so on. The fact that this was going on during covid for a lot of youtubers allowed it to go unnoticed, because the metrics just looked like everyone staying home was watching more youtube. So when a video "went viral" and a new channel went from 5 to 1 million subs in a week, that mostly made sense to youtube. In reality, it was scammers amassing legitimized accounts. By making these dummy accounts look like they had authentic behavior, subbing to random channels, leaving comments, etc, they were less likely to be flagged by youtube, which meant they could turn around and sell viewbotting services. When youtube finally developed ways of tracking this behavior and cracking down on it, a lot of those accounts were banned by youtube or abandoned by the scammers running them. So people who thought they were guaranteed eternal growth and increased payout for youtubing suddenly found themselves with 1/1000th of an audience and far less money than they needed to keep LARPing as a proper business.
>>98219804This would be quickly ended if we stopped the retarded nonsense of "blue boards" and 4chan went back to being a free for all and everytime one of these e-celebs posted their dumb faces someone tributed it and posted a picture of their picture with a thick juicy nut all over it.
>>98214466Worst hobby youtuber ever. He doesn't shut up complaining about the hobby, frequently tells his audience how he does everything becsuse algorithm says to do it, not because he cares about or likes it, is an adult man with disgusting facial piercings. Failing couldn't happen to a more deserving person.
>>98219296Youtube kind of killed creative hobbies because rather than other hobbyists at similar levels as you (i.e. normal people) you primarily are interfacing with the top 1% of talent in the community. I do a lot of model cars and I quit watching videos about it because wow my cars looked like junk compared to these youtuber's builds. But if I go to my local hobby shop Ive got the nicest ones there, because everyone at my local shop is regular people with regular levels of skill.
>>98220688this is fascinating. Is there anything or anywhere I can read more about? Maybe even something more technical/
>>98220860I have mostly stopped online gaming due to that too, only really play with my friends on closed lobbies. Post your cars btw anon, now I'm curious, I don't know much about model cars so I'm sure I'll like how they look.
>>98221072Its more suited for /wip/ but here ya go anon.
>>98221072>>98221537
>>98221072>>98221547
>>98221072>>98221551sorry about the image spam folks
Who?
>>98221566dont apologize, man love rally cars. the display is really dope
>>98221537>>98221547>>98221551>>98221566
>>98221763RIP Jeremy
>>98219296>Sounds comfy AF, are you close to him?My dad? Yeah, we've always been close. He's busy being a grandpa to my nieces while also working on his furniture making hobby these days. He always brings the hound dog with him wherever he goes because she gets extremely upset whenever he leaves the house without her>Imagine if your dad ever tried to make a career out of making furniture on youtube.He'd never be interested in that. He just wants to refurbish furniture and make cabinets for himself and me and my sister. He made a glass paned sliding door for his sunroom about a year back after they got new windows and an exterior door for the sunroom. I ended up replacing the ceiling fan and electrical outlets for that room>>98219899You can still be an IT specialist. Mind you, it took him a few years and some personal connections through friends made while working in the local IT industry to be in the position that he eventually found himself in, but you don't need to work for a big company to do what my dad was doing for 20+ years. The company he retired from only had 10 people working for it max and the business address was the owner's home address. >>98220860>Youtube kind of killed creative hobbies because rather than other hobbyists at similar levels as you (i.e. normal people) you primarily are interfacing with the top 1% of talent in the community.Hobby channels are at their best when its just people showing off what they've done and what they're currently working on. The whole mass produced crap that's infected Youtube hobby channels is partly why I don't watch them anymore. Hobby-adjacent channels were never capable of supporting people's livelihoods unless they became professional e-beggars forcing their viewers to donate to patreon or whatever and I think the "professional" side of Hobby Youtube channels are starting to realize this
Scott taking L's constantly was amazing.>Accept commission for Blood Angels army>Take like 10 years to get it to the guy>Accept commssion for Imperial Knight>take like 7 years to get it to the guyScotts definitely a douchebag.>Get requested to paint some HH minis>Paints SO SLOW that he has to offload the work onto someone else at his own expense>arrive at event>post pics to instagram that leaks GW ip>get kicked out>whine about it on youtube>Next up, the last space marine I'll ever paint>average views IMMEDIATELY dip>Introducing Other Games April >post NO other games and abandon it in all future years>Start Dark Eldar Army vs. Jay from Eons of Battle>be SO SLOW that the goalposts get moved multiple times while Jay absolutely mogs himMy favorite of course>Enter Jon Ninas>Hunts down Scott>Uses him to speedrun his own youtube career>if he hasnt yet, is rapidly approaching him in subscribers because he's willing to actually paint some fucking minis.>wins a golden demon, something scott will NEVER do.>Scott has to sit there, and seethe at this guy he personally built up, that is now better at him at his own game on his podcast>Resort to refurbing your mee-maw's furniture.>fuck it up
>>98214466he'd fit in with people here.
>>98220811That is why I am glad there are blue boards, go be a faggot somewhere else
>>98222189>Enter Jon Ninas>wins a golden demon, something scott will NEVER do.is this guys channel worth checking out? he always looked like a clickbait slopper so i never bothered
>>98222543Every so often John will actually put out a good video. Unfortunately he's a fucking shill with every other video about junk you dont need.
>>98222189Me and my mate have a running joke where Jon is a psychic vampire attached to Scott. We don't watch all their content but will send each other thumbnails from the feed to keep tabs and build lore.Pic related: the paintjob that 1 shot Scotts competition painting career. He was so insulted he didn't medal with this piece he basically refused to enter another event. Which makes Jon's growing GD collection even funnier.
>>98221537That's a good car.
>>98220811The moment I see this nerd's face would kill it for me
>>98221946Unironically happy you have a good relationship with your dad, man.
>>98221946>Hobby-adjacent channels were never capable of supporting people's livelihoods unless they became professional e-beggars forcing their viewers to donate to patreon or whatever and I think the "professional" side of Hobby Youtube channels are starting to realize thisHopefully there will be a (forced) shift away from professionals towards actual hobbyists in the future again.
>>98223308>He was so insulted he didn't medal with this piecewhat competition did he enter this in? please do not tell me he entered that for golden demon as a serious contender
I just wanted to let you guys know: Northern Exile is the lamest warhammer youtuber I have ever seen.He gives really shitty life advice instead of talking about warhammer, and he also gives advice to his incel audience on how to get girls? It's massively gay.
>>98223808How is getting girls gay?
>>98223817
>>98223817You misunderstand (On purpose?).Getting dating advice from a söytuber is gay. Getting it from a warhammer video is mega gay.
I just like kind of painting desk videos where they show you some miniatures. But they have to look and sound acceptable.And Snipe and Wib, they have some filler videos but Codex Compliant is brilliant and Wib is very talented.
>>98223538It was for crystal brush. Around 2019 if memory serves.
>>98224106that's just as delusional honestly
>>98224430He talks about it in a video called>Im a loserJon won in his category, and Scott lost to a buncha space marines lmfao.
>>98224556has he taken it down? no results for me when i searched his channel for "loser"
>>98224797My bad its called "Falling Short Of Expectations" from 6 years ago.
>>98224430That’s miniac in a nutshell
>>98222543He can paint well but every video is wrapped up in some clickbait title where he tries a "new" technique or tool. In a world of soulless sell outs he stands apart from the others in just how much he is willing to sell his soul and shill anything. Particularily outrageous to me was his recent kickstarter for some cards with color scheme suggestions.
>>98225059Miniac
>>98225108So nobody.
>>98225122Hey man, You asked, I answered. I don't know who you would consider "somebody". It would be helpful if you could provide a list.
>>98214466>>Hates the hobby*Hates Warhammer but is not allowed to let it go because people don't care about any other miniature game
>>98223808Northern Exile has a wife and children, something (You) will obviously never have
>>98225460Anon, warhammer IS the hobby. Wargaming is too broad a category to imply a shared interest across. I dont give a shit about historicals, nor any rpg garbage. I care about the warhammer IP and so thats what I'm interested in.
>>98225557>coomsuming is the hobbyBrainlets like you are the problem.
>>98223308Dat face thoAdd to the collage.
>>98225779Wait, I thought I was in /wip/.
>>98214466I only watched like two of his videos and the gay as fuck outro he does made me drop it
>>98225846His outro has always been to me a good reminder of how fucking gay American heavy metal is
guys don't forget, if you're planning on painting a cheesecake coomer mini you need a ask the permission of a woman first so she can absolve you of the sin of being a straight man
>>98225460Then don't be a bitch about it. It's not like he seems to have any real passion for other games, such that he would paint their models regardless of views.
>>98226532He talked a lot about the Game of Thrones game, made a bunch of videos about it, but it never got the views Warhammer content does
>>98219160Unironically what kind of freak actually watch this weird trannys videos?
>>98221771He's got early-stage prostate cancer, which is hardly a death sentence
