Go watch my rant videos blah

You see the title. I've been trying to stay on my video grindset. I'm not that good at it, BUT go watch the videos that I have posted onto my YouTube channel, ICHIGO MONOCHROME. Nya rawr.



The videos are kind of rant rambles about fandom craziness, or whatever. I don't know, I was just going off the top of my head. 

In that first video with the Fairly Odd Parents thumbnail, I was just stunned at the audacity of the stalker mindset. The pure delusion that comes with being so obsessed with a child cartoon character, that it wills you to repeatedly DM and then email the voice actress your unhinged love manifesto. Not a confession towards the actress mind you, an angry message declaring your LOVE FOR THE CHILD CHARACTER, and your offense at her insinuation that said character could love another cartoon her own age.

The other two (1) (2) was true, from the heart, dissatisfaction with the state of horror media commentary. Specifically when it comes to the sloppy, immature way people talk about amateur projects. 

It's so annoying seeing these shitty copy-paste thumbnails on shitty copy-paste videos just dogging on a highschoolers art project. Whether it's a webseries, a video game mod, a fangame, whatever, there is simply no reason to be going AVGN mode in your hobby critique video. Especially not when it's so painfully obvious by the cracking, theater kid voice work, that it was made by a KID.

Like, we get it. one-hit Slenderman monsters aren't original. They aren't fun to play against because there isn't any learning curve. The monster designs are boring. 

BUT... These. Are. Not. Professional. 

This isn't triple A $90 gaming. This is a zero dollar Minecraft mod that doesn't even take 10 minutes of your life. By forcing yourself to make a mountain out of a mole hill for content, you forced yourself to suffer for who knows how much longer just to collect footage. Forced yourself to sit there thinking about it, writing about it, editing a thumbnail for it. And for what? To scrape content off the back of a nerdy child? As stupid as it sounds, it's the dumb things that get under teenagers skin. Mfers will tear them down, call them cringe, say their creation is the dumbest shit they've ever played, all for the chance of a mediocre algorithm bump.

And then it doesn't even work because they're posting low quality content in an oversaturated genre with an exchangeable video thumbnail.

Let the damn kids make their stupid nextbots and fnaf clones. This is the practice run. Let them play.


Rant over. Nya.
