Came from the Forever Winter vid, thought of you like the forever winter guy but I liked the style, I watched some more vids and now I just enjoy seeing your vids in my recomended. Don't try to avoid being labeled, just be yourself, that's how you got me. Congrats on 100k!!!

[@cdntl]

This was my experience as well

[@quavious..]

it’s been awesome finding you on tiktok a long time ago making tarkov content and then finding your youtube channel with great longer form videos. you’re super well spoken and articulate and a great writer. you deserve all of the success you get!

[@christmasspiritakagatekeep2308]

Hey man, i just want to say i find your content amazing to watch from multiple different perspectives. On one hand the games you talk about and the style in which you do talk resonate with me. I love games like Hunt, Tarkov and learning about subjects like NVGs and realistic ballistics but have fallen out of actually playing these games, and your content reconnects me to things I love. You also talk about games I'm extremely excited for, bringing a unique perspective on them that i just couldn't get else where as well as broadening my own knowledge on what those games are actually going to be like. On the other hand I just recently graduated with a Bachelors in Film, with a primary focus in audio recording/mix and editing. Watching your edits and listening to the work you put in with your audio is amazing. One of my favorite things about your videos is the little audio ques or transitional noises that go along with your edits and each and every one reminds me why i love audio and that effort going into video production is so satisfying. I'm also having a relatively hard time finding a purpose, and your videos remind me why i want to do what i went to college for, and watching you make videos on things that you think are interesting reminds me that whatever i find for myself, it doesn't need to be some crazy thing, it can just be what i find interesting or fun and that I'm capable of doing that. Also we all get Imposter Syndrome, don't put your own efforts down on these videos, each one is a work of art in it's own right, each one is a piece of you that you have shared with the world. They are works of art just as the video games that they are about are and your videos have their own stories to tell. I can't tell you the amount of times I've come away from productions and thought everyone else put in so much more work, and I honestly still believe they do, and I'm just riding off their coat tails. I understand the feeling. But your work is amazing, and don't think that the art you make doesn't deserve its spot. I'm Gates, and I'm here to watch your content.

[@kenny1509]

I really couldnt agree more with this, Its quite the funny that you finished a BA in film, because thats exactly what im doing ( just more to do with cinematography and color grading), maybe riloes artistic approach resonates more with us film kids

[@TheStratRat]

I appreciate you making this video, Riloe. I was debating starting to make videos in a video essay style since those videos tend to take off a bit more than other types. Thanks to your video, I know that I shouldn't do that and should continue trying to hone my skills on videos I actually want to make. My strong suits are having fun, humor, and being real which are not suited for video essays anyways. Congratulations on 100k!

[@riloegaming]

Those things you enjoy could totally be great ways to bring your own flavor to video essays if you wanted; there’s no one correct path! Good luck and thank you 🙏

Cheers And getting that "lucky" break from a video that put your channel onto so many people will hopefully allow you to share the value you've pulled from the games you've played and help spread that appreciation. Can't wait to see what comes.

[@CRDubU]

It's so validating to hear that when it comes to making videos, everyone else is just as worried about the exact same things. Just before the pandemic I started, and I made a bunch of videos on Arma 3 goofing off with friends. Luckily they took off, and I deleted/unlisted what I made before. I was actually _happy_ when my name was included on the "Armatuber" list in someone's video, because I thought that I had finally "made it." Problem is, eventually I didn't want to play any more Arma. When I stopped making vids on it, I went from tens-of-thousands or even hundreds-of-thousands of views to hovering at 20K, and these days I'm lucky to break 5K views on a video. I went from an early-to-mid-20s dork making goofy vids to now a late-20s narrative-based writer, working on starting a studio for some independent writing projects and joining a friend's channel to make video essays. I'm finishing a final video for this channel, then I'm logging off this account and never returning to it. As I work on video essays for a new channel and try to improve my writing for some personal projects, it's genuinely comforting to find your video and hear someone else say that they worry over whether or not I'm going to be typecast all over again. Thanks, man. Looking forward to whatever you make next, particular subject matter be damned.

[@BoltActionCat]

I truly do like that text you cited at around 15:10. To me, it feels applicable to not just KZbin but life as a whole, and is an interesting thing to think about in my perception. Ultimately, its all just a gamble in the end. I truly connect with your topics, content creation style, and the way you convey the information.. and could probably sit and just listen to/watch you talk about something. I really do think that you stand out from the crowd, and you won't stop growing. Cheers! (I watched till the end.. ha..)

[@ChubbsterBrown]

I’m glad to hear Riloe not wanting to pigeonhole himself into his early video subjects. I can’t remember the very first video of his I watched but I thought it was solid, professional and all round engaging to watch but when I delved into his catalogue of largely tarkov and tarkov adjacent themes I was kind of bumbed. That’s not really a world I circulate. Seeing now he is branching out and getting to hone his skills more excites me. He has a unique flare in just about every aspect of his presentation that I can’t wait to see more of. From this video, Riloe seems to be quite analytic and smart and blends bias/preference and facts-of-the-matter well. Congratulations on the milestone. Cheers, sir.

[@christophercarrera7486]

A couple months ago I immediately subscribed after just one video because I truly could feel the love and passion put into these videos and sharing not information but a true story. Even though the tone of these videos are typically very serious and focused. I can always feel the little giggles inside of excitement, feelings of love and admiration towards the subject. It’s inspiring to see the real art of the script and story telling that can share a new perspective on these subjects. Cheers man! I hope you can keep the passion alive

[@lordruzki]

I’ve been watching you for the better part of a year now and dude you’ve come so far. I’ve never took you as the “*insert game* new guy” but rather someone like me who just loved talking about cool games. You deserve everything you’ve gotten. Don’t stop grinding at it but don’t make yourself feel like this isn’t something you did yourself

[@hunter7896]

Cheers, I first found you via the Forever Winter and without that I might not have learned about the game and it has quickly jumped to one of my most anticipated games this year. I think you have done a great job at self reflection on your strengths and I really enjoy the long form content you have done on top of the uniquely "yours" style. I often find a lot of long form content on KZbin boring as the videos themselves feel too much like a podcast of sorts or just edited content from a stream but you are one of the few content creators whose videos I watch from start to end. I suppose the TLDR of this comment is just you are doing a great job carving out your niche I'll keep watching your videos as your authenticity really does shine through your work.

[@riloegaming]

@@hunter7896 thank you! Appreciate it

[@britishskeleton777]

I think the best step at the moment you're in is honesty now, I'm not nearly as knowledgeable about content creation. But one thing i definitely appreciate and many others is that honestly not everyone will come and watch all your videos hell i subbed because of one of the vids you mentioned expecting more like it and not much thinking after that and hearing you clearly state where you want you're channel go makes us both be on the same page which i appreciate so thanks dude. No one has ever pleased everyone You can only make yourself happy

[@YoDastardly]

One thing I love about your videos is how they are edited. It’s like a beautiful blend of analog/digital presentation and seamlessly discussing a topic while showing artistic clips/still frames of the game. Even if you change the style you’ve proved that you can create a style.

[@riloegaming]

@@YoDastardly thank you! I’m still held back by my lack of skill but there’s lots of places I’d love to push the editing style

You put in that work, got nothing but respect for that. Your video showed up randomly and I’ve watched all of your stuff today based on how clearly you speak, how you walk the line with your opinions and how your videos are put together visually.

[@StellarGale]

I was brought to this channel a little bit earlier this month and iirc one of the first was actually a GPNVG video, but the way you present the information was so good, I wanted more and if anything, you got me interested in GZW, but I would probably watch anything Riloe, while also if I would want something about GZW, I would want it to be by Riloe, because it's Riloe, and not GZW guy. Cheers, Riloe, who talks cool about cool stuff.

[@jackpine3585]

cheers. The last two new games you've covered are already in my library(gzw), or on my watch list for waiting on their release(forever winter). I feel like one of the homies, and a lot of the likes and interests you approach these videos from, are ones I also deeply enjoy. It reminds me of the fond memories of watching the original GitS film with my dad years ago, and how my now late mother as of december, would always tease him about his love of 80-90 adult anime. You talking about the things you like, is why I will always be a viewer, and I will continue to support you here with my sub and likes. Seeing your work also encourages me to keep going on my own tiny channel, and making videos of the game I enjoy playing with friends. Hopefully in the near future, I can start making content on more of the creative projects we've been working on narratively in our writing community. And know, that your insight has been a big point of thought around details of many of said projects. Thank you for taking those inspirations of your passions, and inspiring us with them as well.

[@ianray8823]

Your night vision goggles video popped up in my feed. Interesting topic got me to click right off the bat. Turned out to be quality viewing, so I went to your channel and sorted by old videos. Binged and by the 5th video, I was subbed. You have a distinct style and thorough coverage. But not reading a decent Wikipedia article, I just like how you say things, how you process thoughts. I like channels such as yours on the up and up cause it's like finding a relatable podcast guest or random stand up comic, and instantly vibing. By all means, you can Grey Zone all over my face

[@logintoview2949]

I've followed your TikTok, Twitch, and KZbin. When I initially came across your TikTok earlier last year, I immediately loved what I saw. As much as I enjoyed your Tarkov updates, I was equally excited for GZW information as well. Speaking for myself, the content wasn't what gravitated me to your videos. It was the sense of self. You speak honestly and openly addresse when you're speaking from a place of opinion. I find myself excited to see a video from you, regardless of the subject matter. Congratulations on the 100k.

[@katyushaarty9342]

Cheers Riloe. This has helped me gather thoughts, ideas and a plan to how I want to approach creating content on KZbin.

What i’m trying to say is that i really love your content.

It’s frankly absolutely breathtaking. I’ve done the same thing you’ve done since 2010 other than the actually posting content. I’ve analyzed so much content and have been wanting to be a creator for awhile now but my biggest issue is finding what specifically I wanna do and you’ve literally just described what I fear most which is being typecasted. I love your content for the reason that you are the artist not for the reason of the subject you are talking about. So just wanted to say at least for me as a viewer you’ve shown exactly what you wanted to show. Keep up the fantastic work.

[@Kafinated.]

I found you through the first Forever Winter video, it was such a great video that I immediately went to look for more videos on your channel. I was surprised to find out the very small amount, I legitimately thought you were an already established creator with hundreds of videos in a backlog. I think you are exactly right when you say that while you weren't taking notes all these years while you watched YT, you were definitely still seeing the patterns, and the proof for that is in your amazing growth, whether you want to take credit for it or not. I came for a decently long video as background noise while I played OSRS. I now watch every upload because you have me hooked and I want to hear what YOU, Riloe, have brought to me to talk about this time. Congratulations on the success, can't wait for the next video on a topic that interests you, whether that be a game or concept you've already covered or something completely new.

[@sarven5974]

Cheers for the honesty and transparency. I think that's the main reason I want to watch, actually watch, all your videos from beginning to end. I don't want to discount your experience, skills and values that obviously have a huge impact on the final cut but I think that might be the biggest part for me, feeling like I can trust you and catching your excitement for a game. I've noticed that transparency is something you've praised game devs for with your forever winter and beautiful light videos. I also hear the impostor syndrome thing coming through, and while it's understandable, it's a burden you shouldn't be carrying. You aren't a game dev? ok . . . (most) game devs don't and can't do what you do, the footballer isn't a sports commentator. We are all standing on the shoulders of giants and while I don't need video games or to learn about them, I appreciate both a hell of a lot. Keep it up, I appreciate you :)

[@oioioioioiMV]

It's so cool that, as a CG artist myself, I can 'sense' your artistic context in your videos. You are basically an artist creating videos for other artists and giving full credit to the artists who made the game you are featuring (very confusing, I know, haha)! Super cool! Thank you.

[@riloegaming]

I always try to highlight and credit the art in games, as I feel it gets swept easily under the rug.

[@RoNPlayer]

You trying to offer something insightful with every video definitely shows. The reason I've been glued to every one of your videos is because they're everything but sludge.

[@MorpH2k]

Your first video on Forever winter was the first one I saw and the combination of your very genuine enthusiasm for the game and the fact that it might be the most appealing game concept and world I've seen in years, if not ever, has me hooked. Then I watched a few more like your quad-tube NVG video and the PMC Gray zone video and loved them too. They also happen to be right up my alley of weird semi-niche intersecting interests, even though I never played or even heard much about GZ, and never playing Tarkov. I'm happy that you're aware and actively trying to avoid locking yourself into a specific game, because while I never played Tarkov or GZ, and never liked Cod beyond the first two, I feel we that we might still share a lot when it comes to our taste in games. Your artistic and research work really shine through as well. Keep up the good work, I hope to watch a lot more of your content in the future, just take care to not burn yourself out. Take the time you need, there are always other stuff to watch while waiting for the next one. :)

[@Bolockaye206]

Riloe- Consistently the best videos I watch on KZbin TikTok etc. great work. Great job explaining your thoughts successes and failures. Truly you have a gift and I can see you going SO so far.

Damn dude!! You're killing it! It feels like only a few weeks ago I saw you in my tl and now you're doing even better. I appreciate your sincerity with sharing your story and path. Cheers bro!

[@ItsMinoAgain]

Crazy how quickly you blew up man, I remember finding your short form content/news in 2023 and following you. You're editing style is very unique and your story style videos are captivating :)

[@riloegaming]

@@ItsMinoAgain glad you’ve come along, cheers!

[@StinkyMonkey8U]

Cheers. Your style and format is amazing and refreshing. You do a great job having a unique style that captures attention while still maintaining pace and providing information. Reminds me a little of game theory videos and why I liked them so much. Don’t overwork yourself too much!

[@soda_arcade]

cheers, riloe! i can't pin down what it is, but i feel like i could watch through anything you put out. do what makes you happy!

[@duckierwolf]

Honestly found one of your vids via the algorithm, loved the editing, tone, voice, etc. ended up sending me down a rabbit whole that I’m glad to be in. I just watch you vids now cuz why not? Honestly had no clue what forever winter was until your video on it, and I hope you can bring that truly Riloe experience to everyone.

[@samkerski]

Cheers, man. Feeling like people show up because you are riding the coat tails of another's art sounds like a complicated feeling. But if those people STAY, it's because of YOU. I'm one of those people. I really enjoy how varied your different flavors of content are, because through all of them your enthusiasm always shines through. Can't quite put my finger on it, but your style of presentation hits just right. Looking forward to see where you take your content!

[@wesleygibson575]

Cheers! Thank you for this insight into your process and the develpment of this channel. The Video that you hated is the one that made me notice you and the video about the Forever Winter is the one that cemented my interest in your content.

[@TangoIndiaMike144]

Cheers Riloe. Here for all of it. Keep up the great work man!

[@freshglizzy3763]

The right man in the wrong place makes all the difference in the world. There's a ton of opportunities ahead of you, and I'd like to see what you make of it with your platform.

[@dragon_1gaming756]

I see an incredible amount of potential in your content, may you soar far past 100,000

[@iNarga]

i thoroughly enjoy watching Riloe talk about things he thinks are interesting 👌 whatever videos you end up making in the future, I'll be around. cheers.

[@ACOGG-1]

Hi I’m ACOGG and I like to listen to you talk about things you think are cool, because I think they are too. Cheers :)

[@FUZE_313]

i cant put it to words how good of an video this was. Really made me think about my own future and what im trying to do. Nice :)

[@_nomad_of_novac_9884]

You got 100k because your put passion into your video in a way that's not boring, you deserve the 100k with how good these videos are.

[@hazonku]

Cheers. Came for Forever Winter, stayed for the rest. Not often a single video is so good that it immediately makes me interested in whatever else that creator might have. You've absolutely nailed your writing, tone, pacing, and editing. Immediately caught my interest and kept it.

[@jannejaakkola5836]

Still the best gaming related channel out there, glad you're getting some recognition for the hard work! I'm sure you have thought about it quite a bit, but I really think your essays that cover genres, trends, psychology around the gaming, etc. that are not specific to one game are the way to go for you to retain your freedom and flexibility going forward. They will appeal to people from a wider audience without tying you to a specific title. Whatever you end up doing, I'm sure to keep following so congratulations for the first of many 100ks to come!

[@rudged]

I got recommended your banger "anti-shooter" video by the algorithm pretty early and I hoped it was going to blow up. Came back to check a few days later and it did, well deserved.

[@DLetang100]

You said you feel like you don't deserve the subs because your work is based off of someone else's art. You got my sub after the first video I watched because you turn the subject matter into art of your own. I've been watching gaming videos for I don't know how long. Your voice, perspective, and style are unique to this platform. It's fresh and engaging and that's why people watch.

[@MissinginAction]

as someone whos been around since the near beginning, I think you totally deserved it. you're a great content creator, thanks for the news and the great videos

[@doughboy3920]

This video is a great example of why your videos are great. It wasn’t about a popular game, or even a niche one. It was just about you, and it was still incredibly captivating and enjoyable. Can’t wait for more, cheers! ❤

What hooked me was the quality that I could see existed through the editing. All the fancy editing or writing skills in the world won’t substitute the physical content and information, it just delivers it in a pretty box. “Video Essays” tend to leave a sour taste in my mouth because they’re typically written/edited to pad video length, assumes the audience has grade school intelligence, or the author themselves isn’t knowledgeable enough to address the topic. What I see in your videos is passion, wisdom, and knowledge in your topics, in a market oversaturated with glittered up noise. From there it’s left to chance for good content to be shown to enough people to begin picking up momentum in the algorithm
