I went to the hospital for a routine cat scan a few weeks ago, while I was in the MRI machine, an earthquake happened - registering a 4.0 on the Richter scale. I passed out due to fear and adrenaline, but in my forced slumber I dreamed a dream - In perfect vivid detail, I dreamed of this very video, uninterrupted, from start to finish. I’ve spent the past few weeks trying to bring that dream to life - this is that dream.

The absolute balls on this guy to film this in public. The type of confidence we should all strive for.

[@chrisogrady28]

I don't know if it's the case for Renn, but this is the kind of confidence you get when you live somewhere really busy ans stressful and get used to it. Then move somewhere shitty or back home, you just don't give a shit anymore.

I remember when DDR was still big, my local mall had a DDR competition and it gathered a surprisingly large audience. Anyway, my siblings and I came to the mall in the middle of it and the whole place smelled like salty ham and rubber because everyone was sweating their putrid asses off. It was a great afternoon, but not nearly as great as this video. Thanks, Renn!

[@joeldeakin2003]

This video is an entire musical and I love it

[@Wenjo936]

The moment i realized you were slashing beats in time to your voice i lost it. you really go above and beyond. Renn im literally about to go stream some ddr at the Arcade. i just found a local machine 2 weeks ago

[@Wenjo936]

They took the DDR cabinet whenever the AMC movie theater got sold in my town 5 minutes away from where I live. I'm so glad I saw your video in the period between finding it and it getting removed. It really made me appreciate what I had in the devastation of walking into that dead Mall it not hearing the DDR extreme menu music quietly pumping down the hallway over everything else was so so disheartening. Hopefully I'll get to the point where we can Collab. Keep making jokes for yourself keep making content for us

[@limabonne]

Why the ever living fuck isnt this masterpiece getting more recognition. It might be the thumbnail? Idk I just know that this is your best work yet and i really really wanna see you succeed with it!

[@jakovspajic8533]

The reason for low views on this video is because its topic that isnt that interesting to people, because he was making it 9 months and its about simple topic and it lasts only 22 minutes

[@jakovspajic8533]

Also its an average video, I dont see why this is a masterpiece, yes he made a song about every era of rhytm games, yes he put alot work but other than this its just an average video, I would even say its an below average video for renn

[@limabonne]

@@jakovspajic8533 oke jokur

[@joachimjoestar]

I'm coming on this video again after watching it day one and I'm wondering why this didn't make views. Are people too afraid to watch this masterpiece and be dissapointed by the other KZbinrs after that or what ? Anyway, keep up the good work. You're truly one of the best channels in this platform. I'm glad to have discovered you with the Xbox video, your editing skills are legendary.

[@henrydikes6704]

I missed you so much my favorite little boy in the whole world

[@liamsteers7378]

So glad you’re back renn, definitely one your greatest videos so far.

[@sheperinogaming1986]

This is the greatest video yet produced by man. You have single handedly peaked all of humanity's previous content. Nice, bro 👍

[@personman5156]

This is definitely my favorite Renn’s Reviews video by far. It has so much passion behind it, it seems like genuinely one of your most ambitious and creative projects so far. I would dare say it’s even the most so. To come back to it and realize that it has underperformed and has gone unappreciated even by most of Renn’s own subscribers… it just feels criminal. I will recommend this video to a few friends, because to me, this is the epitome of the quality Renn’s Reviews has come to be known for, and I think it would sell this channel if given a fair shake.

[@madcap6438]

A certain parts I was questioning whether what was or was not a green screen.

[@joeldeakin2003]

It's all a green screen.

[@ionian525]

I can't even imagine what it's like to plan these videos out. I don't think I've ever seen you use the same filming location for any shot across your whole channel. You're basically performing in public and interacting with your edits before you've even gotten the shot. It's frankly incredible to watch, it's similar to NakeyJakey but on crack and in public and you make it look so effortless.

[@stevemac6707]

Possibly one of the best & most inventive videos on KZbin, every segment oozes quality. Why this guy doesn't have more subs is beyond me but in a way I am also a little glad that the mainstream hasn't caught on to the sheer brilliance of this channel.

[@i_used_adblock_to_watch_this]

Glad to see you back with another video. You're one of the very select few people on KZbin that I actually enjoy and that doesn't piss me off. You come across as genuine, and your jokes aren't cringy or forced, nor do they insult my intelligence. You are a special breed sir. And I'm glad to be subscribed to you

[@dafunktrunk]

Yo man, wtf?! Why does this only have 9.4k views? It is probably the best video ever made on KZbin

KZbin is poop, it may because of the music. Sense there parodies of other songs. But I'm not too sure, take what I say with a grain of salt lol.

[@Marka301]

I really enjoy the work and devotion you put into your content/editing. Thanks Renn - looking forward to your next video.

[@Joppa399]

Came here after watching your latest VR chat video and I have to say this is definitely a masterpiece. Unfortunately like most masterpieces it appears as though it has been missed by the majority (including me), well at least now you've picked up smoking it'll gain some traction after your death and it'll be sooner than before!
