https://www.youtube.com/user/PewDiePie

So if your lurk in Youtube at all, you should know who this guy is. He's been around for a while, and is probably the most subscribed channel for gaming related videos on the internet in general (that's not a community channel). From what I recall, he makes around a million bucks a year off of Youtube and his partnerships, all just for recording himself playing silly games.

Personally, I unsubscribed from him a while ago for filling my feed with videos about games I don't care about. The drama that surrounds him is pretty annoying as well. Though he was a funny and entertaining guy when I did watch his videos.

But what do you guys think about PewDiePie? Is he a sucky Youtuber who makes bad videos and whoever watches them should feel bad? Or are you currently subscribed to him and enjoy the content he puts out? For how long have you been subscribed to him, or for how long have you disliked him?

Tell the Protaku these things.

He's a pretty cool guy. I'm subscribed and I like to see his vids from time to time.

PewDiePie fans are even worse than PdP itself. Btw, I don't like him and I unsubscribed. Shit and overrated.

I used to be subscribed to him but unsubscribed for the same reasons as you, really all I cared about was his The Last of Us play-through because I was unable to play it and his videos were the highest quality. Plus he lowered his energy for the game so it was actually quite nice.

He sucks. I don't know why he is so popular. Maybe I should be obnoxious black guy who makes video playthroughs while using slang and spouting racial epithets. Maybe I will become a millionaire too.

I feel you bro. I was subscribed to him for The Wolf Among Us playthrough. Though I did watch some of his videos after it ended, he just put out too many irrelevant videos about games I didn't care about for me to stay subbed. I'm not a fan of indie games, really.

I think he's overrated and unfunny, but I don't really care enough about him to hate his guts. The vast majority of his fanbase on the other hand... Well, I liked the dramatic reading videos of their comments at least.

I've watched a few of his videos. I did find his Happy Wheels montage funny. But yeah, I still don't get why he's SO popular. I know many channels who are way better than him. I'm guessing he gets so much hate cause of his rabid fanbase, which quite honestly, is horrible.

He is ok.
Doesn't seem to know a lot about a lot of things in the video games he reviews. Like day to day objects characters use.

To be fair, pretty much every fanbase is rabid and obnoxious. Even hanging around forums or chats where people share my same interests only ends with me disliking the majority of them. Openly obsessing over anything is just...ugh.

He blows and most of his fans are up there with Justin Bieber fans. I don't recommend him for gaming coverage.

I have no opinion about him.

And the reason for that is because I don't like his stuff.

I thought he was funny for a while, but his style and the types of games he plays get boring and repetitive after a while. I bet he's a nice guy irl, but his videos aren't for me.

His voice makes me moist. That and I like the fact that he takes..most of his Let's Plays seriously. He rarely sabotages his progress just to make a joke (Though the chair thing in Amnesia was a tad annoying).

Also, his irrational fear of mannequins makes me laugh nonstop.

He's also quite the hardworking, driven completionist if he sets his mind to it.

i know that but like... It feels so forced. You know like good acting and shitty acting and stuff.

I remember watching him before he was cool (fuck yes I'm a hipster) and his videos didn't feel so fake, his reactions were genuine, his commentary was aight. Now it's just... FAKE AS SHIT

I think hes annoying and always clear video history when his vids are in the recommended section

I only go on yt to laugh at stupid videos and avoid the youtubers who create those obnoxious customised preview images for every video with click bait caps lock titles

He's a genuinely good person who's really contributed to charity often. As for his channel, I used to like his content, but I soon grew tired of the ridiculous humor he tries to make out, like randomly flicking his tongue. His fanbase doesn't even consist of gamers, they consist of... well, you know.

I just hope he's not portrayed how he is in his YouTube videos.

Tried watching once one of his videos. Barely managed to get through half of it. All of his reactions seemed over-exaggerated, forced or fake. Can't really understand how people find him funny, but hey, to each his own.

I subscribed to him in, I don't know 2011, 2012 something like that. Back then he was very interesting to watch, was funny, no repetitive humor, not trying hard to be funny. But over the time his jokes became repetitive, the screaming became annoying, and his videos became dull to watch. I don't have anything against the guy, he's awesome in fact, he donated to charity a lot and is overall a nice person. People hate him a lot, because they watch some of his annoying videos of today and assume he is this douche who got 30 milion subs undeserved, it's true that he does not deserve all these subscribers with the content he makes today but he also does not deserve all the hate. My view on Pewdiepie is, he was funny, not anymore today, but I still have him subscribed.

You may have just grown out of his style of humour. I used to watch him a fair bit back then too, and I'd say it's kind of the same

It will change nothing. I can assure you that there are just as shitty or even shittier replacements for the Number 1 most subscribed youtuber (or at the very least, gaming channel) out there that the masses are willing to establish. Eliminating pewdiepie will change nothing.
