[@Maskon2Fite]

I feel oldddd

[@justauser8224]

He's now gone. These reactions, these happy emotions, I miss him. I'll fucking miss him. He's dead now..I don't know what to say, but rest in peace. The only things I can say is that, he was one of the people I loved watching. His streams, his reactions, everything about him is what I love about him. Sure, he seemed like he was going crazy over the past few months, but in the end, he was still a human being like us. He's the best and nicest person you can meet too. But, now..He's gone. He's up there, somewhere.... *Rest In Peace, Desmond Amofah.*

[@pip5188]

He looked like he was really enjoying this. You can tell the classic games were nostalgic to him

[@J2ojuiced95]

At least videos like this still exist, to serve as a reminder of what he used to be like.

[@MsTeechar]

Nobody: Etika playing Sonic Mania: *_THIS MUSIC_*

[@Djay_B]

I don't freaking blame him!

[@FFGAir]

Ill miss Etika so much. Reactions, Streams, Directs, E3, none of it will be the same without him. Ill miss my favorite KZbinr, someone I never met but still felt like I knew, Desmond. Im happy at least that we can still watch the content he once made. I dont want to be sad when I watch this content I want to be happy like I was when I first watched this live. R.I.P my brother. You'll be missed so very dearly by me and many many others. Joycon boyz for life

[@sonicgamer178]

I’m so glad these videos are still up. I suddenly had the urge to rewatch this and it made my day

[@Degdreams]

20:08 Etika bro... it really would have worked out...We were all better with you...

zarry mlolpp plus RoboRocket didn't even do any thing he's pointing out that Dhavids comment had no use whatsoever.

[@trinityskitz7929]

I 100%ed Sonic mania with all characters meaning all 7 emeralds on each save file with different characters. I play this game at least once a year on my switch because it's just such a solid and awesome Sonic game, but each time I boot it up I am immediately reminded of Etika. A bittersweet feeling. Still miss him

[@aquashame]

I hope there’s a way to resurrect people in the future, this man was gone too early. R.I.P. Etika.

[@tb.7788]

i hate that whenever he gets close to beating a boss, half of his chat just starts spamming L’s even if he’s doing well and not gonna lose.

[@Narianele]

I'll miss you so much... this is probably one of my favorite set of streams you've done. Watching you play this for the first time really made me happy. Thank you also to the person who uploaded this...

[@joeyboyyy7178]

This Etika brings me a lot of joy. RIP legend

[@Lixoric]

Thank you dude since etiks channel was deleted we cant watch his streams anymore, thank you bro.

[@marlon.8051]

he deletes every stream

[@Jessebonnie]

Yeah because he's dead.

[@spider-boy1962]

What I would give to see this man's reaction to the movies, Frontiers, and now Superstars...

[@jbark678]

I was going through a tough time in Uni when I started watching Etika. Now that I've graduated, it makes my heart heavy to remember. We miss you, man.

[@migfire]

Looking at him in this video, it's so hard to believe he went down the path that he did. It's so heartbreaking. RIP.

[@AgentMidnight]

Etika raving over the music will always brighten my day

[@x-coin6740]

This stream is how i found him when mania first came out.

[@xxpinguxx4467]

Back to relive the memories

[@dislike2657]

Rest in Peace Desmond God Bless your soul 24:09 - Seeing him happy like this to play this game is just so amazingly sad because now he is gone

[@JackTheProJTP]

RIP Etika :(:(

[@Jarrbitt]

I miss you already Etika. You were gone too soon.

[@4etika731]

I miss Etika so fucking much dude

[@BLOODY__FATALITY]

I love Etika! Man this is making me want to back to Sonic Mania. I never finished it. I miss Etika. I wish he was still here with us so we could see his reaction to this new "Switch 2" Direct/teaser next year.

[@Phobie_2008]

This man had such fucking fun energy. So sad I only knew about him after he was gone. RIP legend. #joyconboysforlife

[@nightshadehelis9821]

Man, I just discovered this guy while looking for sonic Mania reaction videos. I love the genuine joy he had for this game. He seemed really happy. I'm sad that this young man has passed away. Can anyone explain what happened?

[@dynastyps]

People mocking him and mental health issues

[@SonicBoss1991]

He commited suicide in 2019 :(

[@CurseKingdom3445]

He suicided

[@playinggames7086]

But why?

[@playinggames7086]

He has so much to live for.. sadly he didn't see the new sonic games :(

[@RenHeng_canon]

Gonna rewatch all I can to remember the good ol' times... You'll be extremely missed, Etika... 💔

[@drewspriggs5677]

But for real though, the person behind the music had his head on straight. Shit was dope af.

[@Pico_444]

5:50 one of my favorite moments

[@GlitchNoobChaotix]

We miss you dude. Even though you're gone watching these videos that you originally made (this is a reupload ik) brings a smile to my face. Nobody was as legendary as you. I didnt watch Etika when he was alive but his "fans" who called him a clown are monsters idc if they claimed they are sad or feel bad about his death you all are lying to make yourselfs look good

[@sppsports2449]

RIP, this was my favorite playthrough of Sonic Mania

[@zyplayzgames9023]

Rest in peace etika.

[@TheWaInut]

God damn. It still hurts

Man Etika vibing to green hill zone act 2 just makes me smile so damn hard, I miss the goat 🙏🐐

I gotta watch all of these again, since this was my favorite live stream series (other than deep web)

[@Jessebonnie]

We will miss you, Etika.

[@JukeboxJaw_]

R.I.P. bruh

[@Meevil1]

Goodbye etika.

[@Legend64Project]

I come back to this play through every couple of months or so. It's wonderful to see Etika's pure joy playing Sonic. He is so missed.

[@jozinek876]

After watching this, I can see why people miss him :,). Also, I had no idea about the drop dash.... I feel so dumb now.

[@AgentMidnight]

A part of me is really glad that Etika got to experience how amazing this game (and especially the music) was

[@kodybutt]

RIP Des

[@krisp923]

He had so much good, and aggressive, energy. It was exciting to watch.. And little did we know that he was dealing with a lot

[@TheSeanlatti]

I remember coming home from School watching this stream, he bought so much joy throughout Highschool for me… RIP Etika 🕊🖤

[@emjg9940]

Man almost two years after his death and seeing this still hits different... RIP Desmond we still all love you and haven't forgot about you king.

[@masterreece1098]

i didnt really know a lot about this guy but I knew he was a major fan of Nintendo, rest in peace man 😔🙏

[@Molten_elite]

I didn’t watch etika too often but every now and then I would tune into his streams and he was just so full of energy. He was such a positive energetic guy and I would never get bored when I was watching his streams. It really hurts to see him gone, this just shows what a massive influence social media can have on people. He was so young too he had such a bright future ahead of him. *Rest in peace Desmond. Joy con boyz for life 💔*

[@DW9427]

I hated how toxic the chat was in this stream.

[@TheShinShoruken]

When he got hype to music it was the best. RIP to a legend

[@XANAA]
