Game Theory: Why YouTube Will NEVER Fix Rewind (YouTube Rewind 2019)

KZbin Rewind 2019 came out and most people were left unimpressed, some even angry - though not as much as last year. I watched it myself, hoping to see the KZbin rewind of yesteryear, where it felt like a celebration of the Creator community. Alas, no. This year was so disconnected from that concept, more a top ten list than a recap of our platform's milestones. Why though? Why has this become KZbin's new norm - and yes, this is now the norm. KZbin is sending us all a message with this rewind, and all of its responses to the recent changes on the platform, that it is not one of us Creators.

The Game Theorists: *"Critiques KZbin Rewind; in order to be Better"* KZbin: *I'm gonna pretend I didn't see that..*

[@neutralplayeroflol5722]

I think he had planned something: After his interview with the CEO, their will be a probability she'll look at his channel and she might see this very video. Slapping some sense with words not cash

[@anibhima]

They even put it on trending lol

[@terrinich1377]

Get it trending, MAKE THEM SEE IT

[@xPhantomxify]

KZbin can never fix KZbin rewind, because KZbin is dead. The original KZbinr creators that made KZbin a great platform to watch videos on, are starting to leave or have left already. The passion and creativity has been drained by money and greed. KZbin is no longer a hobby, but a business. All that's left is money and clout chasers that act as corporate shills and disguise themselves as vloggers, bloggers, make-up channels, etc. Do you honestly look forward to rewinding people like David Dobrik, James Charles and other disingenuous people? In the end, what is there to rewind...? If you read all of this, go do me a favour and watch Nigahiga, one of the last original KZbinrs that gives actual meaning to the word.

[@cloudedarctrooperdtq3532]

Maybe we should boycott KZbin. I mean, What good is a platform if nothing gets built? No videos get watched, no outrages are had, etc... We fight fire, with fire.

[@Keese26]

Part of me thinks she thought that gamers were being treated correctly, but she was just ignorant. If she did know what she was doing yeah she sucks, but honestly ignorance is people’s fault but not always. I do agree that gamers weren’t treated correctly, and I think that it’s either Susan’s fault, the people below her’s fault, or no one’s fault, they are just ignorant and didn’t figure out that that alone was disrespectful. Heck, I didn’t realize it either, I don’t even know if PewDiePie realized that, so if it was ignorance, then maybe the CEO OF THE COMPANY should take things into consideration and think about them more...

[@avtfol]

Her tone was totally passive aggressive.

[@electroninja7419]

She might have tried to be optimistic, and lie to herself. She generally seems to care about youtube and its creators, but there might be larger forces at play some how or another. She might be trying to tell herself that what she is doing is for the good of everyone involved, but is not facing reality.

[@maggot216]

I watch a lot of AniTubers and none of them are on the list either. MistyChronexia is getting shut down and mods aren't taking care of the problem at all! Face it creators are just a means to an end for KZbin and not something they actively try to protect. Demonitizing or age restricting LGBTQ videos just because...

[@mandybennett22]

It jumped out at me since when I saw top games I thought that they would go into top gaming creators, so I was excited to see jacksepticeye, Markiplier, and game theorists potentially on that list and then it didn’t happen. Like I watch a lot of gaming videos on twitch and KZbin so I paid more attention after gaming popped up.

[@Totally_Baked]

I've been hoping a new platform will surface and replace KZbin.. I love youtube and have grownup on it but it is getting worse every year. I dont see youtube being replaced anytime soon but I hope they either pull themselves together or get replaced.

It'd be like saying the Russo brothers no longer cared about making Marvel movies but they still will. They stopped after Endgame because they care about what they create. KZbin doesn't care but continues to push out something which is why it feels so cold and why this will probably hit a lot of people.

As of rewind; I never watched any; I seen last year one indirectly coz of so much backlash and videos about it. I'm on KZbin for many many years and before that I didn't even know KZbin had rewinds. It is just not what I'd care about. But yeah I hope KZbin community doesn't die coz of KZbin itself lost personality in order to survive for us.

They're not exactly living for nothing, they're just trying to shift over into the realm of movies and talk shows that TV is beginning to slip up on. The World Series was sponsored by KZbin TV. Jimmy Fallon shows up in everyone's reccommended even though no one actually watches him. Random movies you might like starting at 1.99 USD. They're just the platform, and they're trying to slide out from under us onto the more stable footing of professionally scripted "entertainment", despite the fact that the only reason they exist is because we're still watching. They will move in order to live for nothing, but will die to the nothingness they have embraced.

All I have to add to this conversation is there are different kinds of platforms to build on. So I postulate what strata does "the Platform" consist of? Foundations and where they are built play key roles in engineering and building structurally sound architecture. Building on granite is completely different from building on sand. KZbin should inspect their foundations. Thank you Matpat.

KZbin can never fix KZbin rewind, because KZbin is dead. The original KZbinr creators that made KZbin a great platform to watch videos on, are starting to leave or have left already. The passion and creativity has been drained by money and greed. KZbin is no longer a hobby, but a business. All that's left is money and clout chasers that act as corporate shills and disguise themselves as vloggers, bloggers, make-up channels, etc. Do you honestly look forward to rewinding people like David Dobrik, James Charles and other disingenuous people? In the end, what is there to rewind...? If you read all of this, go do me a favour and watch Nigahiga, one of the last original KZbinrs that gives actual meaning to the word.

Agreed. I feel that the company picked the one underpaid disgruntled jaded editor who works in a dark closet and told them to just create a "Watch Mojo" mashup of the most popular videos of the year to pass off as a rewind. Not to appease the masses, but to give them the finger for last year's dislikes. I understand it's probably difficult to get that many content creators together in a collaborated, amazing video showing off what KZbin is (*cough* 2015) but the company has billions of dollars to make it work regardless. 2019 just seemed like a careless, passive throwaway that made the content creators just do the work by themselves.
