1) Would you let a larger filming company continue 863 with you and your team again? 2) If you could turn the key (not an 863 reference) on every single channel that was part of the studio era and have them back to what they were, would you? 3) What happened to MEGADESK? 4) Were the ghost videos all just an elaborate bit or actually real. 5) Were did those GoPros go? I see this video as the last page of a book, its like the ending to Harry Potter, where you can see that everything is good and everyone is happy. (NO the Cursed Child Play doesn't count) Thank you Matt for allowing me to see that creativity is very important regardless of what age you are whether it's you (35 i think) to me just being in Highschool. You've touched so many lives on you many different channels and the impressions you've made are priceless. Thanks again and God Bless you, your family, and all you have employed.

[@bear6830]

I personally don’t think he would just hand 863 over to a major film company simply because well we all know what happened to Star Wars. Cool idea though.

[@jinxysaberk]

@@bear6830thing is even retirement doesn’t mean we won’t see it again anyway. It seems like what he’s saying is he will be uploading for his pleasure. I’m sure if matt has more ideas he just has to get out there involving 863 then we will see it again. Truly it depends on matt and i like that. If he is just running something for money then it will never be as good. Hi5 always had a good balance between trying to do the content they wanted while catering to the alg. Who knows what he’ll be doing in 5 years time things are constantly changing 🤷‍♀️

[@obi-wankenoli6073]

Was there ever an answer to these?

[@ArtistTics]

Mad respect, man. The way youtube pushes you into a hole is brutal. It’s a desperate grind of trying to stay relevant and uploading a bunch of content on a consistent basis that you might enjoy making, but if you try to switch things up for some other ideas you have, you will get less money because people expect the same thing out of you over and over again. I have been watching you since i was a kid, and you’ve inspired me so much over the years. Can’t wait to see what you decide to do next! ❤

[@miltiaspogfrog9684]

I’m just stunned that Matt ended the video with hi-5 ing the camera like very old videos. Absolutely nostalgia there.

[@freefalldominoes2872]

In an old Hi5 vlogs video you once said the only constant in life is change. It’s awesome that you are moving on and looking at all you’ve learned from the studio era and I’m excited to see what’s next!!

[@Funnyguy291haha]

Hey Matt! Been a fan of yours for around 6-7 years now, you literally made my childhood! So heres some questions I have: 1. What was the reasoning behind the name change from Hi-5 to Spellbound? (You may have answered this in a previous video) 2. What was your favorite moment throughout your youtube career? 3. Do you have plans to appear on Joey's new channel anytime soon? 4. This is my most important question: How has your relationship with God changed/grown over the years of content creation?

[@L-GINanimations]

Hey Matt! I guess I got a few questions. 1. Is Matt and Amanda still gonna come back once in a while or do you prefer not to vlog anymore, cause that's fine, it's been a while since there was a completely normal family vlog channel on youtube lol 2. How do you feel about making some good ol skits? I've watched you for a decade and some of my favourite most rewatchable content that you have made would be the skits 3. If you don't mind, are you guys and Markiplier still in touch?

[@edwinisawesome]

I have a few questions: 1.What made you realize that you wanted to let go of Spellbound/Hi5? 2.What happened to all the stuff in the studio? Was it given away? 3.Will you ever post in matt & amanda? 4.What happened to the channel M-tech? 5.Any Thoughts on Bailey working for Smosh? Thank you so much Matthias!

[@andrewreasor596]

Hey Matt. I just have two questions for an overall idea of what you’ve had to navigate through over these last few years: 1) Can you give us an overall timeline (without intruding on your privacy of course) of all the key events and big decisions you’ve had to make over these past few years? 2) How have you encountered Christ throughout this and did the big decisions of the past rock your faith? Thanks, brother.

[@HotshotTek]

Glad to see you’re making content you enjoy and retiring as a happy man. I’ve been following the channel for a long time, and my question for you is: Was it worth expanding your business to multiple different channels and hiring a lot of employees? Is there something you would tell your past self to do differently, or was it all perfect? I’d like to know if there is anything you would have done differently, or if you would have preferred to keep it small and focus on one niche.

[@lezlo_12]

I always kept this fun fact but the day i discovered you was the same day Luna was born and I have been a big fan since then. I remember finding the matt and amanda channel and being so confused on why you didn't upload a video recently and come the day you announced it, was the same day i started watching. I am about to turn 20 this year :). I would say that I love this new decision because as a viewer I also go through phases of what i was interested and hi5 and spellbound did so well in trying new things and just keeping my interest with anything you guys put up. Thank you for these last years.

[@tclary9942]

I grew up watching your videos and all of the different channels. After the 863 series ended I couldn’t find any answers to what was going on and where everyone went until literally today. So happy to see that you’re still around! Stumbling across this video brought back the nostalgia and made my day!

[@Silverion26Gaming]

When did you know Hi5 needed to transition to Spellbound and what made you close down the studio? Did it feel weird to see the studio slowly empty out and close? Can’t wait to see your future content!!

[@tessaclaire1152]

I love how open and honest you are! It’s refreshing to see when a KZbinr is kind of done with an aspect of KZbin instead of grinding it out until inevitably the engine dies out instead you change it up and are open about that. I will still be here watching your channels because wether its you being goofy and looking at products or talking about your faith I find it all interesting and fun to watch. Hope you have a good time with this new chapter!

I know you have mentioned having different ideas for different stories and I'm just wondering how you're planning to turn your ideas into videos (I know we all loved 863 so I know we can expect some great ideas from you). It sounds like a super fun idea and I can't wait to watch!!! congrats on the new begining :)

[@mikeee95]

You're the reason I got into film making. The reason I've started a career in film and storytelling. Just wanted to say thanks

[@out_of_the_BOX]

I've been watching you for maybe 10 years now. That was back when I was 7, I'm 17 and almost an adult now, by a few months. I really want to say something profound with some deep reflection on change. Maybe like, no journey has a finish line, just the starting line to something new (cheesy/overused, I know). But I don't think I'm wise enough to make reflections like that, yet. So instead, I want to ask you a somewhat silly question, and if you answer it, hopefully, it will lift you off of some of the more profound questions in these comments. What I want to know is, when writing, how do you start a book/story? It's easy to say that a new journey starts when one ends, but sometimes I feel it's hard to know how to start in the first place. You've made pretty great stories over the past few years and lived a few yourself too. Whether you answer this question literally, or maybe take a figurative approach to it, maybe relating to life, is fine by me (I've struggled at writing books because I start poorly, and I feel lost being just graduated, so any approach on this question helps!). Cheers to the fun times we've all had Matt, and to more to come on the road ahead.

Question - What is something you are most excited about filming in this new era?

[@hammermachinimas]

It’s been a crazy ride. Been watching since the early Team Edge days. 863 is probably my favorite thing I’ve ever seen on this platform and it was great getting to be part of the story. You have been a big part of me wanting to get into content creation and telling stories. I do have a few questions - Are you still working on Battle Universe? Feels like the last update was forever ago - Is 863 fully done or are there plans to tell smaller scale stories in that universe? - Not at all related to Spellbound but I know you’re a Star Wars fan, thoughts on Bad Batch now that it has finished airing? Can’t wait to see the content you make moving forward, I’ll be here to support. May the force be with you

I always stop watching from time to time and when i always get back you guys are doing something different and something is moving forward. When i first came back dope or nope became a trio rather than a solo review. I binged and watched for months then stopped again and comes back with woods being the 3rd guy, came back again and now I’m invested in overkill character. I came and now the whole mystery of the office became a series, i came back and now dope or nope is gone when but i do get to watch steak review, then when i finally get back again, i searched every channel and then i saw this. The days had moved more and more and now I’m an adult.

I, myself, have never been a fan of KZbin content created by studios. They always felt forced and overproduced, and the whole concept of it is very 2014 KZbin. Plus I don’t have a connection with the random people employed by the studio. It was always the videos made by just you that were my favorite. I could listen to you rambling about anything for an hour without getting bored. I loved the stuff on The Exec channel for example.

Im curious how there was such a sudden shift of going from all of the hype around these new stories you were going to tell, to shutting it down and deleting videos surrounding it. Was it because the $10k series wasnt successful? Or was there more going on behind the scenes?

[@EnigmaMaster]

It seemed like midway through 863 everything got kinda chaotic. Content output slowed down drastically. They kept shifting the tone of the content . Lots of promises of consistent uploads that never really happened. BTS content promises that would start and then just end with no explanations. And then tanner and woods left and within a couple months there was barely any content at all. I think Matt got sick and then all content just stopped all together

I'm glad that all that stress and the lessons that came from it brought you to a place where you feel more empowered and where you are more supported to do what you want to do. I know our paths haven't been as close recently with all the changes and other factors but I am excited to continue this journey with you and be here to support you through the changes. And yes pls upload here more I like the more personal, just sitting having a nice time content. Support to you all always 🫶

Just to ask, is this why the r/matthiassubmissions subreddit is locked? (Edit: i asked this like the first 10 seconds of the vid, i fr thought you were fully retiring)

There is no reason to have it. With downsizing of the company means moderation can't be easily accessible. So to maintain integrity they are privated till Matt jas the need and time to moderate them.

​@mrrainbow8638 no worries. I wanted to make sure it got answered if he didn't get to it. ❤
