It will never be the year of Spoony

He could still make a career making fun of LordKat

Is it really that hard to turn on a camera and ramble about D&D?

He's such a master storyteller
Turning his back on the world and then coming back when they need him most in the 3rd act, just like Han Solo
>>
>>221248395
He could have come back at any time if he just stopped crashing out at his audience.

>>221248500
nah spoony is too real for the modern internet
he's fucked in a world of influencers with soulles video products dominating everything
>>
>>221248514
The only difference between his shit and more contemporary critikal or pyrocynical shit (I'm not saying they're good) is that you actually need to somewhat know the subject you're covering. The latter gets dressed up the only thing that became faux pas is skit comedy. He proved incapable of covering stuff he didn't grow up with, like his infamous crash-out at the Fallout 2 tutorial. He's just a dick and couldn't control or get medicated for it.
>>
>>221248612
spoony was never any good at livestreaming, they're all shit
he needs to put thought and preparation into it or his bipolar takes over
>>
Dude was once king of the internet, now his suicide note struggles to get retweets. It is what it is.
>>
>>221248633
There are still people focusing on actual videos and not just stream highlights. I really think it was just that he finished all the games he gave a shit about with Ultima 9. I remember reading he plagiarized D&D stories for that one series he did eons ago, so he really just dried up along with not getting medicated.

>>221248679
He's on bluesky. Nobody gives a shit about anything on bluesky unless it's some meme leftwing politician or "influencer" crying about dead trannies, ICE, or a black guy getting arrested.

My autistic norwegian friend once bought merch from him, some sort of spoony final fantasy shirt, like 15 years ago. That's how "big" he used to be.

>Video production was all I was ever any good at. It was all I ever wanted to do. And now I can't even face getting in front of a camera anymore
He's such a tard, just don't be in front of the camera then, you can still do "video production".
>>
>>221248741
>He's on bluesky.
Making himself even more irrelevant. It's like bad decision makers just keep on piling on the bad decisions. Next up: getting a face tattoo.
>>
>>221250224
He wants to be an actor in mainstream movies. but is still too pussy to admit it. Typical Gen-Xer

this is the year bros, I can feel it
the year he kys himself that is
>>
>>221248791
>Baits about maybe making a return to being on camera but only if he gets loads of nice and supportive comments
>>221248395
I guess it didn't work. Maybe he expected that video to get like a million views or something.
>>221250314
You obviously don't remember when he tried to get on Jimmy Fallon or whatever dumb TV show to do exactly this.
>>
>>221248395
>Uh, yeah, guess I really am done
Wow, so glad people waited for you to come back, asshole. Thanks for nothing.
>>
>>221251486
He did post this ok bluesky to be fair so he must know that only about 20 people would usually see it.
>>
>>221248791
This Let's Play was fucking legendary.
Spooney genuinely had talent. He could be genuinely funny with relatively little effort, and he was fully able to hold the attention of an audience.
That's what makes his long, drawn out crash-out even more "tragic" or at least more dissatisfying than it should otherwise be: He HAD the chops for this kind of content-creation. He outright proved it with how huge he got. And then he just stopped so he could instead spend all of his time just being miserable.
>>
>>221248759
Even based brad? The algorithm changes on YouTube made these people so irrelevant. I don't know if any one them except Lindsay Ellis can clear 100k views anymore and arguably she doesn't even count since she fucked off to nebula after getting criticised.
>>
>>221248759
Yeah, exactly. Like everybody says: Only irrelevant people use it.
>>
>>221248395
Internet is still full of content creators doing "funny" reviews of pop culture.
I don't even know if their views have gone down or up but I still see them on YouTube
>>
>>221251536
Lindsay was in the right group post guy with the glasses. Contrapoints used to go to parties with google/youtube execs so that group of leftist youtubers she was friends with got pushed hard.
>>
>>221251536
Even Bradakin, he uses it the same as he uses twitter and his other socials just to advertise. He's kept his crashing out contained to his alt.
>>
>>221251598
Totally derange view of modern history.
>>
>>221251536
I used to love Brad Jones but he eventually started putting so many unwarranted leftshit political references in completely unrelated videos that it turned me off to his content after watching him for years.
He'd be watching Anthropophagus or some shit during a scene where a kid gets eaten or something and he'd be like "Teehee, this is what those sexist anti-abortionists think abortion is like!" or some shit like that. He also even legitimately got triggered, on camera, over things like an in movie person being critical of the morality of homosexual drug addicts or shit like that. It always came across as not just annoying, but extremely petty and effeminate.
It was the kind of stuff that just put a bad taste in your mouth when you were watching something that was supposed to be full of just humor & good vibes. There's zero justification for injecting that sort of shit into your script when what people tune in for is a good time watching you review Nail-Gun Massacre or Super Hornio Bros. or something. I don't want to be reminded that transsexuals and BLM exist, let alone if how much you apparently love them, when you're in the middle of a fucking jokey review.

And that was 10 years ago now, just BEFORE the TDS nuclear bomb completely exploded all over the internet's content-creators. I can only imagine how much worse he got it /how much worse he became in the interim between then and now.

>Spoony
>king of the internet
Lol, lmao even. He was just another of the Nostalgia Critic's buttbuddies along with the Lightbringer and Peeved Pedro.
>>
>>221251650
Spoony was the only other creator that was getting views on par with AVGN and Nostalgia Critic at the time. The three of them were sort of the Holy Trinity of goofy-ass high-effort internet reviews.

He was by no means "king of the internet" or anything, but he was certainly an anointed member of a very exclusive and privileged royal family.

This, and it should be noted that at his peak (however fleeting that may have been) Spoony demonstrated significantly more talent, comedy chops and social aptitude than those other guys.

For a few years half a lifetime ago, Spoony really was the best to ever do it, and it wasn't even close.
>>
>>221248679
He was never even 1/10th as popular as James

>>221251535
i rewatch phantasmagoria every few years. i wonder if it's just nostalgia of being a kid finding all this shit online to watch that makes me think it's good but it still holds up for me, though the lets play sort of drags on after a while but that's because i find the story/imagery of the game a bit tiresome at the end. the mundane office setting is more fun to me. anyway, the funny thing is find all of the other comparable content from that era has aged a lot worse than that let's play. the only thing other than spoony i dare to watch anymore is avgn's early hardware/console review episodes

>>221251768
Nah it definitely still holds up; it lacks the excess of cringey skits that reviews later turned into, and Spoony is genuinely engaged with the game and not focusing on being a wannabe AVGN (which I'd argue his FF8 review was, and it doesn't hold up as well).
>>
>>221251830
He was more of a wannabe MST3K for video games, but neglected to note that the skits were the worst part of MST3K

spoony is literally one of the few people on the internet I ever found entertaining to watch. his ultimate warrior routine made me laugh gut bustingly hard.
It's sad because he could make money literally playing videogames if he wanted, but he's just a shattered guy. people give him shit but sometimes that's the cards you get. the same BPD brain that made him funny made him depressed and anxious.
anyway, I still watch his rare livestream stuff. and I already can tell he has a bunch of nerds telling him they love him because that happens every time he posts shit like this. in 40 years if he's still around he'll still be getting replies.
>>
How did he go 10 years doing absolutely nothing and not becoming homeless?

>>221251898
also I've said this before but angry joe and nostalgiachic getting rich and famous while spoony struggles to pay rent is proof there is no god, or there is and he's laughing at us.

Lives with his brother. I'm sure Spoony's chronic depression and his brother's PTSD from killing a Mexican in a gunfight makes for a cheerful pair of housemates.

>>221248395
I feel bad for him, he literally just threw away a solid career as a youtuber/streamer due to depression and impostor syndrome. He just had to go live, and talk about random shit, video games, a new movie he watched, hell, even start doing effortless reaction videos like tons of fags do on youtube. No script, no editing, just turn on the stream and his thousands of fans would have tuned in. He would have made a living easily.

Spoony's got rich parents and a caring brother at least

>>221252109
people used to be super obsessed with him

SJWs hated him for rape and gay jokes, chuds hated him for his conservative hate, autists hated him for shitting on their favorite game/movie
there was constant drama surrounding him

LordKat kept his career alive for a decade, mostly talking about him and his drama
Spoony is the only reason anyone even remembers LordKat.

The crazy thing is he has 140k subscribers on youtube lol. Like you can't pay for an audience that big.
He used to tweet like 100 times a day, if he just read those out in a video he'd do fine.

>>221252144
yes, but he doesn't have a dedicated hatedom like James has
people are just being sad over his fate for the most part

subs don't really even mean shit atp and rarely are representative of the individual video viewcount, which is what matters

>>221252181
or he is just comparing two very different things which makes it REALLY hard to agree with him

I don't understand why anyone fucking cares. This kiwinigger gossip shit is mental poison. Get away from it or kill yourselves.
Oh noes, some guy was making YouTube videos and now he isn't making them anymore, what a fucking rabbit hole. Honestly, being an e-celeb in the first place sounds horrible, you always amass a parasolical insane audience including dedicated haters who dig through your trash. Especially nowadays where zoomerscum is digging through people's porn stashes (so many acc hacking, leaks, doxxing shit happening constantly) and trying to accuse everyone they don't like of being a pedophile if they find even a single porn pic where the anime girl (literally everyone jerks off to mainly anime nowadays) is merely seventino and a half or some shit. Reminds me how leftists were accusing everyone of being a nazi. Sick shit. If I was Spoony I'd find it relieving that I am no longer relevant. Being relevant in the current climate sucks.

I'm not a zoomer. Zoomers are in fact the largest consoomers of kiwinigger gossip shit, like the "rabbit hole video essays" and other garbage like that. They unironically get their whole moral compass from garbage like that, which is why so many zoomers are passive aggressive sadists and psychopaths. Kiwinigger generation.

I use bluesky for R34 because of really good feature of custom feeds. They should just rebrand as a cartoon porn site and purge the DNC shitlib shill accounts.

You have to understand what he means by "video production", that is being a superhero reviewer who is very funny and right about everything and who everyone loves.

Noah isn't about to start staring at FCP for eight hours a day for some funded channel putting together their essay on the importance of Polly Pocket to the rise of feminism in South East Mudhutland.
