At first I was like "huh, this guy is actually competent at the game, if a bit dull. What's the catch, slowbeef?"

Evidently, that was the catch.

Also, how much good does getting likes and subscribers actually do? Someone that does videos tell me what you gain from each like or each subscriber, because the desire for each like and subscribe I see from many Youtubers (including some that don't suck) confuses me.

Also also, I'd be down with replacing Pewdiepie with Uncle Pennybags. At least then he'd have an actual justification for being that successfulnote . Better content, too.

Anyone who assigns themselves loads of character tropes is someone to be worried about.

I guess more likelihood for Partnership, or revenue if they're already partners

Which wouldn't pan out though since its Mario, right?

Likes and subscription means bigger presence which means more youtube fame which usually means more youtube money which means gravy train for life. Not that Mario is worth a gravy train ticket at this point, but that's the modus operandi.

Also, somehow 3000 dollars is less than I expected for an obvious cash grab of this nature. Although how he expected to get away with charging 500 dollars for a skype call I have no idea.

I hope this video is the start of a side series based around making fun failed of indie go go projects.

So, here's the deal.

Likes are calculated in You Tube's search algorithm. (Fun fact: so are dislikes) So basically, the more likes and dislikes you have, the higher your video appears in search. That leads to more views, so it actually does help a You Tuber to like their videos.

Subs... I've always heard subs don't do anything, but I noticed this weird-ass spike around the time we hit 100k that I can't explain. (We took two weeks off and lost the momentum, though.) So I don't know if subs help; I think it's possible at certain milestones, You Tube bumps you up, but I'm not really sure.

I like how the newest House of Horrors doesn't even involve anything supernatural or really demented; it's just really really bad safety regulation. In any case, I love these videos.

I actually liked how it wasn't yet another toy/game/some other shit being possessed by an ancient Sumerian deity/pissed off dead kid/malevolent otherworld forces/Rutee Katrea back and pissed off. Instead just some comically inept or corrupt toy makers.

I'm just picturing a market research study for those toys, where one of the survey options is to rate on a scale of 1 to 7 how fatal the toy seems.

a vague pitch for an old-timey steampunk chinese cartoon journalism-themed shmup with rpg elements. It's like someone made a funding page for one of those ~unpublished story~ on darthwiki.
