I made this video quite a long time ago. It has never failed to make me laugh.

The TL;DR version of this is in my comment that is on this video.

Hello there.


First of all, I want to apologize to every single one of my viewers. I made a promise in which I will be able to upload every 2 or 3 months in my previous videos, yet not only did I fail to stick to my own schedule, but I didn’t update any of you guys about why it was taking such a long time to upload them. This is all purely my fault, and just a bad habit of me biting off more than I can chew. I am sorry if you have been expecting a video from me ever since I made that promise. If you are still expecting another AH Shenanigans video from me soon, then I have bad news I’m afraid.

I will not be making anymore AH Shenanigans videos, and it is also highly unlikely that I’m going to continue making videos at all.

When I started making videos back in 2013, I enjoyed it quite a lot. Was it tiring? Yes, it definitely was. Either way, I found it fun to make videos back then. However, as time passed, my mindset started to change. I started to dread the time I spent making videos more often and at times would actively try to avoid it. I started to find making videos more of a chore than a hobby. Even at times when I have finished up a video and go through it, it was difficult for me to find value in any of the videos I make other than those that subscribe to me enjoy it. This wasn’t the only issue, however.

When I was editing my videos, I always wanted the texts to be perfectly in sync with the audio. Hence, I started to become more paranoid when it came to editing. As time went on and I edited more videos, this paranoia started to bleed into my personal life. I ended up reading texts slower, and would constantly have to reread texts multiple times in my head even when I have understood it. Paragraphs that would normally take me 10 minutes to read before could end up taking me up to 30 minutes to finish reading completely. This also applied to me watching videos as well. It was frustrating during that period of time, to say the least, and it was starting to affect me really badly. I have been recovering, but it’s safe for me to say that I would rather not experience it again. There was also this terrible guilt that I felt whenever I was not working on a video. I always felt that those that subscribed to me are always eagerly waiting for a new video and for me to not deliver the content that they want on time pained me. Combine this with the dread feeling of having to work on a video and you can get quite the ping pong match of depression and anxiety.

Another thing that was affecting me due to making videos was my increased dislike for the Achievement Hunters. Editing their videos and having to constantly hear what they say and what they sound like started to infuriate me. I ended up actively trying to find faults in every Achievement Hunter member and could not stand what they did or how they acted like in videos. It is nearly impossible for me to enjoy any of their content nowadays. I have completely stopped watching any AH-related content ever since then. Please note, however, that I still think the Achievement Hunter members are still good people overall, and that their dedication to their work is amazing, but my sense of comedy or whatnot has just changed over time.

Either way, that’s the gist of it. As for how I have been doing, I have been improving mentally ever since I decided to completely stop making videos. As for whether or not you will be seeing be around, most likely not. Since AH is such a large part of Rooster Teeth, I will most likely be avoiding most Rooster Teeth related social networks.

I’m sorry that this channel has to end in such a terrible way but I hope you have a wonderful day/night ahead of you regardless. Heck, maybe you can create videos that are similar to the ones I make too.

Thanks for all the memories guys. I wish you guys the best of luck for your future.

The following video and audio shown is from the Machinima video:

Due to Youtube having a character limit on descriptions, I can't put the rest of the song here. Ah well. Even a hundred thousand disbelievers couldn't keep me on the ground.
so.

The song is Anything from Hedley as most of you guys already know. The reason why I picked that song is because of the video Deductism made of Rooster Teeth using this song inspired to start making videos in the first place. I don’t regret and I never will regret making the videos I did just so that I can put a smile on your face. Always remember that.
I will see you guys around. :)
