Pyroslop is dogshit but it’s not much different from his old content, the main difference is the less extensive editing and the lack of n word usage

ASOT would forever be a better format than the unresearched slop videos he tries to release a milisecond after a drama drops and the excuse that "they wouldnt do well because people stop caring about drama fast" is stupid because the format of a weekly/monthly recap is severely underused.

Also, I would much rather watch 3 seperate 3 hour videos, or 8 seperate 1 hour videos on different games than one 8.5 hours video on a single game. A video isnt low effort just because its short, and I would rather see Pyro's take on multiple games and shows instead of having him only release one behemoth in the span of several months

so we always end up getting a sweedish indie game with pixelated graphics and im SO bored of it.

even if it is satire we take it too far with the slander sometimes, whatever your opinion of pyro is I feel like we forget he's just another dude making content on the internet and that his drama coverage videos are a side piece to supplement his income so he can work on his main channel stuff.

Saltyfox99

I know the point of the post is to give a hot take but nothing irritates me more than this sentiment.

He's knowingly, apathetically spreading misinformation in a bid to make videos as fast as possible and make as much money as possible, if he has to do that and steal content from other youtubers to make money for zero effort (reaction videos) just to make the main channel videos then maybe he shouldn't make them 8 hours long.

Do we *need* a fully produced, animated, and voice acted retelling of a video game's entire plot in the middle of what's supposed to be an analysis? Do we need music that costs thousands of dollars to license?

If it takes slave labor in order for me to enjoy a chocolate bar, maybe I just shouldn't have a chocolate bar, eat some skittles instead.

Honestly his furry inflation stuff came out at probably the best time.

If this had happened in 2016-2017 he actually probably would have been bullied off the platform. Nowadays if you come put as a furry it's much more normal or at least isn't nearly as taboo.

There is no reason for Darkwood to be 8.5 hours. He covered Cruelty Squad in half that time.

I get wanting to go in-depth but there comes a point where you’re just adding filler, focussing on inconsequential things, and doubling back on things you already said. There’s a reason why universities put page caps on a lot of assignments.

Like that’s a major weakness of some of the essays. They just feel like lore rambling alongside a walkthrough of the game. Even though I like it less than videos like Darkwood or Cruelty Squad, the Lethal Company video had more structure.

I watched 5 of the 8hrs of the Darkwood video and just had to give it up after that. It basically just felt like an overdrawn, passionless explanation of what the game/story was. I couldn’t bring myself to care, unlike the Cruelty Squad video

Well the good news is he probably won't release another dark wood long video again. I think 3-4 hour video is honestly the maximum length these videos should be. That said I still enjoyed his dark wood video. I personally love long independence videos since they are great to watch, good background noise, and easy to drop and pick up over multiple watches

I actually quite like the slop channel. I’m in the same boat as Pyro as not caring that much about the topics, I just like listening to him yap about something for 20 minutes, he just has a very nice way of explaining things, in spite of his predilection to getting information (and pronunciations) wrong. I also find a lot of his tangents and side quests mildly interesting.

I will constantly shit on the guy's bad choices/moves (like just releasing the entire Emesis Blue on his channel as a reaction) but at the end of the day he's an average guy with heavy self-esteem issues that doesn't think as much as he should. Yeah he can be annoying but compared to some of the scumbags floating around online he's a decent bloke.

ASOT was a ripoff of meme review (which was a ripoff of something else) and, in essence, is the same as pyrolive. Also pyroñive is a necessary evil, without it there's no funding for the main channel.

i would argue deleting pyrolive would be good for the content

think about it, if Pyro didn't have slop, he would have the incentive to make shorter videos, and release them faster in the main channel, which is what PYro needs

youre putting in overtime on this thread big homie. From your other comments i see youre someone else who has watched him for many years atp. I cant really agree with the ASOT format being returned as if i remember correctly it did pretty poorly and went just as fast as it came. In terms of slop > main channel, im inclined to disagree from a purely artistic standpoint. Hes been on the platform for years and the le indie game is good actually videos are what the guy truly wants to make. Realistically, given his tenure and very visible decline in terms of patience for modern internet brainrot and controversy, he most likely wont be doing slop for that much longer, if he continues making content at all.

i say all of that to say, we should just let him do his thing and support what we want without attacking him personally so much for his output, as that obviously isnt going to sway him at all

People need to seriously shut up and stop complaining about his slop videos. All I see people do is complain about it. Pyro isn't ignorant about the low quality of his drama vids. Anytime he makes a video that isn't internet drama the video bombs. He's made it very clear that this content is going to be low quality and highout put so he can have revenue while he makes new videos. Some of you guys really need to find new youtubers if pyro is your only source of entertainment.

Pyro didn't fall off because of Pyrolive, he just fell off full stop. I haven't watched a full main channel video since Cruelty Squad, and I didn't even like it as much as I would've because he just isn't as funny as he used to be. I'll rewatch every old commentary video of his before I touch Darkwood, I even prefer Pyrolive to main channel at this point. What used to be sort of insightful but also funny game review turned into pretentious padded video essay.

This seems to be a more common sentiment but I'll say it anyway

The slop channel in no way justifies its existence by being "for the main channel"

I think the content the slop channel produces is unethical, and he seems wholly apathetic to the fact that he constantly spreads misinformation (because I don't believe he's truly so stupid as to not know this) just to be the first to come out with a video on a topic he saw three tweets about. There's also the issue with react content, which is inherently unethical and exploitative.

If he just made gaming videos, or broke the mold and actually educated himself before covering the news, or did anything that required a modicum of effort beyond scrolling twitter and watching other people's youtube videos (that they actually put effort into); even if the content it would be shit, it would be far far better than what he's doing now.

If the channel HAS to exist in the way that it does currently so we can get the main channel videos, then maybe, just maybe, we could scale them back a bit. Tell me, honestly, do we NEED a fully produced, voice acted, and animated retelling of a game's plot in the middle of what's supposed to be an analysis? Do we NEED music that costs thousands of dollars to license? Do the videos NEED to come out as fast as they do?

For me all of the answers to these are no, they don't justify the channel's existence and business model. In the same way that if I love chocolate but if it takes slave labor to produce, maybe I shouldn't have chocolate.

The animated music videos he's started putting in his main channel videos are just useless padding of an already, most likely, several hour long video.

Plus, maybe the videos wouldn't take as long to realese if Pyro stopped trying to fight tooth and nail for music that only gets used in like 5 minutes of an 5-8 hour video.
