If only it was something people were clamoring for in the first place
I've seen this pop up a couple times. Someone throws out a couple paragraphs about a game fleet losing $10k in real money, and it results in a few clickbait articles, always with the implication that the author is working on the "real story".

It never comes out. Because EVE is really about excel.
 
Holy shit that was cringe. Only a retard would think any of this is cool. I can't believe how far Fredrik has fallen. His videos on Terry and the rat experiment were great. Now he is doing gay anime shit where he takes himself way too seriously and is on the cusp of trooning out. How the mighty have fallen.
 
I'm fucking sad now, that guys documentaries are so fucking good. It seems that whenever he's reaching a fucking peak he wants to fuck it all up by going sideways.
 
He's gone down the upset umberto route. He doesn't like the product that put him on the map, and people aren't really all that interested in him.
I liked some of the teatime streams he did early on during lockdown-mania. If he just didn't want to do DTRH anymore I wish he would have done more of that kind of lifestyle streaming instead of just being a gay retard with Jabroni Mike. It's kind of telling that "Semenology" was one of their first collabs.
 
I'm sorry, there's lore for VTubers now? Aren't they just normal content reactors who don't want to use face cam?
Most if not all VTubers have somekind of """lore""" around their character. It means absolutely nothing and never comes into play while streaming. It's the equivalent of flavor text on a trading card. Fredrick and Nick however are probably going to make some awful ARG around though.

Dude, actually shut the fuck up. You've spent a better part of two fucking years doing a rabbit hole video on EVE Online. You took far less on doing a video for Star Citizen despite it having about as much of a rabbit hole of content. You're trying to move on and Astraline is blatant proof of this. If you did more content like Wendigoon then I'd give it a pass, but it became clear after WingsOfRedemption you got hit with Troll's Remorse. You used Farm content. You were in over your head and you wanted to cover not lolcows rabbit holes to cover basis and failed. You could have doubled down and ignored the minority, instead, you gave up, and became something even lesser: a vTuber.
 
In a better, more :optimistic: world, this gay anime phase will only last like a year at most before he cuts his losses and goes back to doing the old shit he used to do.

But he's a Youtuber, and those kinds are incapable of doing that.

He is fucking himself over in the long-term.
I'd imagine that being a Vtuber requires something that he is lacking, an endearing
personality.

Instead of expanding the Down the Rabbit hole team and being a decent narrator producing steady output he chose the "once I hit 35 this shit is over" route.

Lying in bed with his fellow anime wierdos will be the inevitable downfall of him and his penis.

Well I'm sure he's signed a contract with whatever that gay vtuber organization is. There's the sunk cost of how much he's invested into it already, and he's basically got everything set up already. Plus you can tell he's really into the self-indulgent, "smarty smart smart" backstory his self-insert has. You can tell he had a hand in writing it, if he didn't write all of it himself, and he's inhaling his own farts in the writer's room.

So my bet is he gets decent viewership for maybe a month or two, drops off hard, but keeps chugging along for like a year or two before he gives up...or keeps at it and does his Gay Furry Drag Queen Virtual Story Hour streams to 15 viewers for years.

I watched the whole thing and it said during the credits;

FREDRICK KNUDSON
LUCUIOUS MERRYWEATHER
So yeah he wrote all that wank while the merryweather guy told him how to be more anime I guess.
 
Is there something in the water that makes the frog gay? The kid had talent, and now he just want to be fucked in the ass. I really think that we are poisoned by something.

It isn't something in the air or the water; it's the current culture.

The ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle noted that "no excellent soul is exempt from a mixture of madness", and there does seem to be a noted tendency for creatives to suffer a higher tendency towards various types of mental disorders - such as the so-called "fey mood" where one seems possessed by some outside force which compels them to create (or attempt to create) something of great importance to them.

Basically, what I'm saying is that it should come as no surprise that creative types are more susceptible to these sort of aberrant types of behavior.

Content creator's perception of reality: Wow, how entitled of these viewers the expect me to put out the content they started following me for.
Reality: Wow, this content creator really feels entitled to having a mindless drove of retards that will continue to support them unconditionally forever while spending multiple years not putting out a video that has become such an undertaking that its success or failure will determine the the fate of the video series altogether.

I wonder if he'd say that these 1k+ people supporting him on Patreon are in the wrong to think he's given up on Down the Rabbit Hole. Maybe he should change the Patreon to instead read "Fredik Knudsen - pursuing what I want." Seems like a bit of a false advertisement the way it is now if that's his resolution in response to people pressuring him for DtRH.
Ah yes, the slow slow slow sloooooooow death by Patreon. I fucking hate how people enable the greatest of retards due to some sort of estranged loyalty (or not paying attention to where the fuck their money goes each month).
Anyone else seeing a repeat of Spoony? Right down to the mounting expectations of a highly anticipated video that isn't likely to come out.
Oh definitely, I still expect for some hidden lore about getting dumped in there.
The beginning of the end for Fredrik, was nice knowing him.
I'd say the beginning of the end was 2 years ago, we are just watching the final tailspin till he hits the cliff.

So how long till he sells off pictures of his troon hole while high on xannies and screaming "GOD'S PLAAAAN BISH!"?

All else aside, I doubt getting shackled to the character is going to be a big factor one way or another in how this shit-show unfolds. It seems like most of the major Vtuber corpos give their talents short-term contracts of one-to-two years outside of a few notorious exceptions. The two big Japanese corpos, hololive and especially Nijisanji, have both lost some of their talents lately due to the actors just choosing not to re-sign. All of the big western companies have similarly had talents quit on them in the last year - one of them had an entire "generation" of new talents just exercise whatever termination clause they had all at once. Whatever else you might say about Merry and the other twinks involved, I don't see them doing anything other than copy-pasting whatever contract-language has leaked from the other established talent agencies like Vshojo, if for no other reason than Fred and Night Mind both having way more clout than Merry does, and probably having the combined reach to make his life online a nightmare if he tried to pull a Shylock on them.
