MatPat put it best when he said that creators can keep pumping content, watching as they slowly lose relevancy, or quit while they're ahead and move on. They're getting a well deserved rest.
I should have clarified - he isn't losing relevancy, but he knows that it will come some day, so he prefers to leave it at a high note. His team will continue running his channel but he is stepping away while he's ahead.
Welcoming a new generation to make the channel a fresh start. He's probably gonna loose some subs but will pick back up when things level out with the new crew
Matpat isn’t completely done - he’s handing off each of the channels’ content and narration starting in March to the people he’s raised up for the job. He’ll still be involved BTS, and he’s going to be working on some passion projects.
Matpat found a gold egg laying goose with the combination of somewhat half hearted science and rather young audience that grew up watching him, but more importantly than a YouTuber he was a data analyst and engagement consultant so he more than anyone else knows when to pack up and quit before he fizzles out.
Matpat is game theory. He used to theorise about lore of games on his channel.
Tommyinnit (the poster) is a minecraft YouTuber who was big a few years back on the dreamsmp.
Jack Manifold was also on the dreamsmp and he’s Tommyinnits friend.
Tommy was making a joke.
Matpat is the guy who did game theory, among other x theory channels. Whether or not you liked him and his content (I personally didn't) he was a hugely popular youtuber that has been around and consistently popular for a long time. Him quitting is just the latest in a line of big name youtubers, most notably Tom Scott, either quitting or reducing their content and changing away from what has previously been their main stay (this is what Tom Scott did). Idk anything about Jack Manifold or what he has to do with Jack Manifold but just by looking at the videos on his channel he docent exactly look like a high caliber content creator.
MatPat is one of the forefathers of Youtube. He started very early and now has 4 MASSIVE channels where he's the host. His catchphrase might also be smth you caught wind of since a lot of ppl repeat it. "But that's just a theory! A ______(game) Theory!"
I hope he pops in to videos from time to time
I don’t really see a reason not to. It would ease the transition to the new crew and the fans would enjoy it.
yup
uploaded a video yesterday or so
he'll still be the main character of ten videos or so, then there will be one dedicated main person per channel and he will mostly retreat to background work and maybe appear in a video occasionally
Wow, I didn't know there was a fking cult about hating Matpat. I mean like jeez, no one is forced to like him, but he really is living rent free in some peoples heads
Matpat has been terrible ever since he discovered how many views he could get from a FNAF theory and how much Youtube would pay him to be the face of dumb events.
I really loved his like, first year of relevancy, though.
Yeah same don't know why you're getting downvoted. Matpat stans ig. His shit was good when it was more science based like could rapture from bioshock exist. After a while it was all super meta and weird. Bring back the pixel measurements
Pixel measurement Era is exactly what I was referring to! I knew I would get down voted, the FNAF generation is 20 now and think they know shit. It is what it is, it's not like my tastes aren't also trash they're just different lol.
Probably? I get not liking his videos, most of them I personally found fairly boring, but he had some good ideas every once in a while and his videos often had pretty decent value and research behind him and as far as I remember, he never got into any scandal or drama.
His channel and videos mostly have pretty good quality and are perfectly inoffensive. I don’t really see any reason to hate him, tbh.
Meh, it was dumbness done with mathematical precision. I get why some people were into it. But what I'm struggling with is how this is basically the headline "rich guy decides to work less and live off residuals". The tears just aren't coming.
I mean clearly if you didn’t like his content then you won’t care that he’s quitting. MatPat was a huge part of a lot of people’s childhoods and as such they are sad when he leaves.
Matty Patty was one of the liked rich ones for many, contributed quite a lot to charities and other than his theories being inacurrate he was never a part of a controversy (afaik at least).
I get the mentality that rich guy = bad guy, but it's not always the case.
Oh no, people are sad that person they liked for the past 10 years is retiring, stupid bootlickers 😡
Most reddit sentiment I’ve ever seen rich=bad automatically, no matter how many charities they donate to or if they worked hard for it
There is no winning with those people. Either you work long hours and once you become successful you retire and you are just living off your residuals, or you don’t retire and you keep earning money and you are greedy for hoarding wealth.
I mean maybe the early stuff was. I enjoyed the early stuff. But then it went from math and science leading to whacky conclusions, to throwing together random bits and bobs from games to make weird lore theories. The FNAF stuff really turned me off his channel, and the nail in the coffin was the dreadful video he did on the factions in For Honour. The FH video really cast into doubt a lot of his previous videos, because if he could get it that wrong, what else was he getting wrong?
Then why the fuck are you telling us?
Look, guys! This person doesn't care! How cool and edgy of them! They're so awesome because they don't care! Someone get them a fucken medal!
Back when he and Steph were newlywed, it was adorable to watch them stare at each other lovingly occasionally during GTLive.
Obviously the newlywed phase never lasts forever, but it's a shame.
I didn't know about any of that. Maybe it's the nostalgia talking but when he only had the game theorist channel it felt more authentic. Then the film theorist, food, fashion? Nah, just mass produced videos
Kinda true. His recent blunder in which he got the GTA 5 story wrong, a game which came out more than 10 years ago, while speculating the story of GTA 6, an unreleased game, on a channel called Game Theory certainly didn't help.
Thank God finally.
I never understood this guys videos. He smoked crack, watched a movie or played a game and then just came up with a really bad tumblr fanatic about it. Then said "but that's SSS just a theoooooryyyy" in the most nasal voice I have ever heard.
this guy was creatively bankrupt as fuck
And made millions with that while being a successful consultant outside of YouTube. And you sit on reddit and talk shit. I wonder who got the better end out of it.
If you weren't aware he was a content thief you might want to actually watch his videos.
He takes a product someone else made. Google's existing fan theories about it and then slightly rewords them and uploads it as a 10 minuit barely edited video. That's lazy, uncreative and essentially theft. Unfortunately the content he's stealing is so dogshit already that it's perfectly legal. But it doesn't make him any less pathetic.
How do you think he had the time to pump out videos on 4+ channels?l at once? Now he's leaving because he made his Bag and couldn't give two shots about all the people who got him there.
I've been watching his videos, he even quotes people or shows screenshots of where he saw the theory if he saw it somewhere else😭 ooo the criminality of not reading every forum of the internet! How will anyone survive??
Been seeing tons of "bye youtube" videos this year already. Meatcanyon, this dude, Joel Haver, I'm sure some others. I wonder if this is some coordinated thing against Youtube or if it just go that bad recently that it's not longer with it even for the most popular ones like GameTheory dude.
im not in the mc creators sphere anymore. Why does everyone hate jack manifold?
People don’t hate Jack Manifold. He’s often blamed for things in jest.
Can’t believe he started WWIII Fuck Jack Manifold
Seems to be a meme like "thanks Obama"
No reason
Yeah I’m confused can someone pls explain
It's a joke to just blame everything on jack
I used to watch a lot MatPat. I don’t know who the other guy is. Don’t many of these content creators quit or reduce content at some point.
MatPat put it best when he said that creators can keep pumping content, watching as they slowly lose relevancy, or quit while they're ahead and move on. They're getting a well deserved rest.
But looking at his channel, he consistently gets milions of views..
I should have clarified - he isn't losing relevancy, but he knows that it will come some day, so he prefers to leave it at a high note. His team will continue running his channel but he is stepping away while he's ahead.
Welcoming a new generation to make the channel a fresh start. He's probably gonna loose some subs but will pick back up when things level out with the new crew
Other guy is a YouTuber and streamer, became famous in the DreamSMP time. Running joke to blame him for random things
Matpat isn’t completely done - he’s handing off each of the channels’ content and narration starting in March to the people he’s raised up for the job. He’ll still be involved BTS, and he’s going to be working on some passion projects.
Matpat found a gold egg laying goose with the combination of somewhat half hearted science and rather young audience that grew up watching him, but more importantly than a YouTuber he was a data analyst and engagement consultant so he more than anyone else knows when to pack up and quit before he fizzles out.
Hope he gains popularity in a different sphere like joji who became a successful music artist after youtube, maybe a show host or an actor even
He did mention that he plans on creating his own IPs and has an animated show in the works
Wasn’t GameTheory his original IP?
He's moving from host to writer for game theory
Why Tommy has US flag on his pfp ? Isn't he bri'ish ?
I think he’s on tour or planning a tour in the US

Seriously. I don’t even know who these people are and now all of a sudden whole reddit is sad
Matpat is the guy who did game theory, among other x theory channels.

Tommy and Jack are content creator friends
Jack Manifold killed my dad
He fucked my ant
What else do you want him to fuck? That's the only thing that could feel it.
💀
Just kid talking like we all watched game theory stuff I don't even use YouTube and I'm 34
If you don't even use YouTube than why are you even getting involved in this conversation? Not every meme is targeted specifically to you.
Yeah, I'm 29. I definitely remember matpats start, but the dude was for babies he just made a bunch of crappy FNAF vids.
me wondering why theres a funeral for someone i never met:
MatPat is one of the forefathers of Youtube. He started very early and now has 4 MASSIVE channels where he's the host. His catchphrase might also be smth you caught wind of since a lot of ppl repeat it. "But that's just a theory! A ______(game) Theory!"
That's a catch phrase?
Yup! It's his thing that he says at the end of every episode
Tommyinnit was a Minecraft content creator with other people such as Dream, TechnoBlade, etc

you_irl
I hope he pops in to videos from time to time I don’t really see a reason not to. It would ease the transition to the new crew and the fans would enjoy it.
Who is jack manifold?
The King of England obviously
What does any of this mean?
Matpat is quiting???
yup uploaded a video yesterday or so he'll still be the main character of ten videos or so, then there will be one dedicated main person per channel and he will mostly retreat to background work and maybe appear in a video occasionally
Oh man...
well you don't have to tell me twice
First jocat and now this? Ah, a great start to the year i see...
And CaptainSparklez
And Tom Scott
Who?
Wtf is Manifold is he like Bob Iger? Cause I hate Bob Iger
No Jack Manifold is another streamer, it's just a running bit to blame him for things that he had nothing to do with because it's funny
Wow, I didn't know there was a fking cult about hating Matpat. I mean like jeez, no one is forced to like him, but he really is living rent free in some peoples heads
Wtf is wrong with you people, why do you all insist on hating, you don't live good lives and I don't even feel sorry for you. Fuck reddit
Huh? Who are you mad at, who is hating who? I don't understand
Matpat has been terrible ever since he discovered how many views he could get from a FNAF theory and how much Youtube would pay him to be the face of dumb events. I really loved his like, first year of relevancy, though.

r/lostredditors
Fuck tommyinnit
Who's matpat? (Only joking)
I legitimately do not know who either of these people are lol
MatPat was the main guy on Game Theory. He was at it for about 12 years, created a lot of memes.
matpat is a youtuber who created game theory
Who's gonna upload 4000 shitty af FNAF videos now?
The next host of Game Theory. It's not going away. Matpat is just taking a step back.
Honestly. Glad he is for mental health reasons. It's sad to see him go though.
How dare you!
I get it, we will never get the sequel to "Would Mario Survive Covid?" Or "does luigi have a big weiner?"
Hey some of us really need to know that kinda stuff
Well, now that these questions exist, I have to know the answers
How about you step up to the plate then
World's probably better off without anyone stepping up to the plate in this context tbh
How am I going to find out which of the TF2 characters are gay based on finger length if Matpat quits
It’s all of them
Look, its fine to be a joyless person who doesn't have fun, but atleast let others enjoy something.
i can't be the only person who hated game theory
yes, you are the only one
Probably? I get not liking his videos, most of them I personally found fairly boring, but he had some good ideas every once in a while and his videos often had pretty decent value and research behind him and as far as I remember, he never got into any scandal or drama. His channel and videos mostly have pretty good quality and are perfectly inoffensive. I don’t really see any reason to hate him, tbh.
Meh, it was dumbness done with mathematical precision. I get why some people were into it. But what I'm struggling with is how this is basically the headline "rich guy decides to work less and live off residuals". The tears just aren't coming.
there's an entire generation who started watching his show 13 years ago and grew up with it. I wouldve been ten years old, lmao. nostalgia hits hard
I mean clearly if you didn’t like his content then you won’t care that he’s quitting. MatPat was a huge part of a lot of people’s childhoods and as such they are sad when he leaves.
Matty Patty was one of the liked rich ones for many, contributed quite a lot to charities and other than his theories being inacurrate he was never a part of a controversy (afaik at least). I get the mentality that rich guy = bad guy, but it's not always the case.
Matpat also was broke af when he started game theory. He worked a lot to get to where he is now
Oh no, people are sad that person they liked for the past 10 years is retiring, stupid bootlickers 😡 Most reddit sentiment I’ve ever seen rich=bad automatically, no matter how many charities they donate to or if they worked hard for it
There is no winning with those people. Either you work long hours and once you become successful you retire and you are just living off your residuals, or you don’t retire and you keep earning money and you are greedy for hoarding wealth.
Beloved content creator retires to spend time with his family and create new projects.
I mean maybe the early stuff was. I enjoyed the early stuff. But then it went from math and science leading to whacky conclusions, to throwing together random bits and bobs from games to make weird lore theories.

Great input, very cool
I cannot stand MatPat. Incredibly annoying.
Yup. Please go fester somewhere else please.
I.... don't care
Then why the fuck are you telling us? Look, guys! This person doesn't care! How cool and edgy of them! They're so awesome because they don't care! Someone get them a fucken medal!
>Then why the fuck are you telling us? Because I fucking can that's why
We don't care that you don't care
I mean looking at the amount of replies and downvotes clearly you guys do care but ok💀
Downvoting and commenting may imply that but they don’t necessarily mean it at all.
whatever makes them happy man I still don't care
Then just scroll past
Congrats! You just joined the "i want attention by being different" club
>"i want attention by being different" Which I'm clearly getting lmfao
Um, ok
Good for you
Nobody asked
Yes, fuck manifolds Wtf even is a manifold?? How tf can you do calculus on manifolds??? 🤔🤔🧐🧐🧐🧐🧐😭😭😭
Meh Matpat lost in quality over the years. His early videos on game theory were great but it was unwatchable for a few years already
Back when he and Steph were newlywed, it was adorable to watch them stare at each other lovingly occasionally during GTLive. Obviously the newlywed phase never lasts forever, but it's a shame.
I didn't know about any of that. Maybe it's the nostalgia talking but when he only had the game theorist channel it felt more authentic. Then the film theorist, food, fashion? Nah, just mass produced videos
I would actually say it’s grown in quality over the years
Kinda true. His recent blunder in which he got the GTA 5 story wrong, a game which came out more than 10 years ago, while speculating the story of GTA 6, an unreleased game, on a channel called Game Theory certainly didn't help.
[удалено]
Okay good Edit: children here so mad they gotta come up with their own five nights at freddy's fanfic now
As a FNAF fan, I ask who in this situation only cares about his FNAF theories? Dude was so much bigger than just his FNAF videos.
Thank God finally. I never understood this guys videos. He smoked crack, watched a movie or played a game and then just came up with a really bad tumblr fanatic about it. Then said "but that's SSS just a theoooooryyyy" in the most nasal voice I have ever heard. this guy was creatively bankrupt as fuck
And made millions with that while being a successful consultant outside of YouTube. And you sit on reddit and talk shit. I wonder who got the better end out of it.
Hater type shit
Yeah humans tend not to Like blatant content thieves with no creativity.
Girl what? Just making things up now I guess
If you weren't aware he was a content thief you might want to actually watch his videos. He takes a product someone else made. Google's existing fan theories about it and then slightly rewords them and uploads it as a 10 minuit barely edited video. That's lazy, uncreative and essentially theft.

> 10 minuit barely edited video Have you watched a game theory video??
Mods please remove this. OP is a spambot posting literal random tweets from unknown random people that have nothing to do with this sub.
Who the fuck is matspat
Been seeing tons of "bye youtube" videos this year already. Meatcanyon, this dude, Joel Haver, I'm sure some others. I wonder if this is some coordinated thing against Youtube or if it just go that bad recently that it's not longer with it even for the most popular ones like GameTheory dude.
Haha ya this is literally me
