You will always be my favorite youtuber and I and all of your other fans are lucky to have you. Yay Johnny is back and feeling good!

[@LordShade1]

Johnny, you’ve been going for damn near 15 years with no major breakdowns. You deserve to step back every now and then. Your health is important and we understand we need you in tiptop shape to provide more comfortable content. We as a fan base care. Thank you for being honest and wholesome with us

[@garhdogoesgeek]

You have nothing to apologise for Johnny. Mental Health is important and sometimes everyone needs to take time for themselves. The fans who care will be here eagerly waiting when you return, and will understand any time you need to take off. I know as someone who struggles with my own mental health, often as a result of my own content creation and my self-imposed deadlines when combined with a demanding day job, that sometimes we all just need a break.

[@shadoke]

I have to say, Ariem is a great pun for a Dream related character

[@rizuzechocolate]

I haven't been much into Sonic lately so when this game came out and I heard it was an Apple arcade exclusive, I just brushed it aside. All I knew about it was that there was a new character. I didn't put it together that her name was a pun on REM until I heard Johnny say it and saw how it's spelled lol. Also makes sense that's she's a sheep! I'm glad for reviewers like Johnny because I get to see how Sonic is doing game-wise. I hope this game is ported over to other consoles because it actually looks pretty fun to play.

[@Woodenfan]

@@rizuzechocolate Agreed, if this was on the switch or PS5 or something, I'd 100% play this.

[@Geneolgia]

Hardlight has a lot of potential as a developer, Dream Team is a solid game for being a mobile title with a more limited budget. Also I love seeing more characters come back and join the gang, having Cream and Rouge back in action is so cool. And I'm glad you're doing better Johnny. Take care, and if you need a break, it's all good.

[@NickonPlanetRipple]

Thank you for keepin' on keepin' on, but moreso for taking care of yourself. Consider it's been 17 years since we had a 100% 3D mainline game, or even a half-3D mainline game where Sonic's friends were playable (spinoffs like Boom or racing games are another story). More than half the series' total lifespan without these things that people actually liked... and now they're back. Just like that. I'm so amazed by how quickly Sonic's friends have been normalized, and all it took was a few games (and Frontiers' DLC) within a couple months. Turns out it was just that easy!

[@DURANDAL1007]

Pretty cool to see you here, I love your books.

[@arkspine]

With all the youtubers quitting as of late. It hit me that I hadn't seen anything uploaded from you lately Johnny. I thought I was missing something, but it was a surprise that the last video was still Sonic Superstars. One thing we viewers take for granted is the availability of content to consume on KZbin. And that these content creators are just always gonna be here, making videos. I had no idea how much you were struggling with behind the scenes man. You take your time feeling better and I hope you find a better work life balance.

[@SimplyColin]

I first came across this channel back in 2010 when I was 10 years old. Back when it was SGB Reviews and before all the Johnny Vs stuff. I watched on and off up until 2012 where I truly became a fan and watched every new upload. I would get excited when a new upload would go up, I remember being hyped when the mega man marathon happened as an 8th grader just getting into the series. But no matter how old I got, I still continued to watch this channel. I still liked the videos, and the channel was just getting better and better. But it made me realize, that I have been following this channel for almost 14 years now. Regardless to say, there is a plethora of channels I used to watch but don’t anymore. But not this channel, and truthfully these videos have helped me out during some pretty dark days. Seriously, whenever life feels like too much I’ll throw on a Somecallmejohnny playlist (in chronological order) and just let it play out in the background, and it’s help. It’s comforting, and it’s gotten me through those rough days. Anyways, I just wanted to leave this comment and express how much you mean to me and how much you have unknowingly done for me. Legitimately one of my biggest aspirations in life, not just as a “content creator” but as a person. Thank you for all you have done

You do NOT need to apologize for anything Johnny! While I admit it I missed seeing new videos pop up like every few weeks from ya; your mental health is MORE important than anything!

I know we're all just randos on the internet but your videos mean so much to everyone watching, never apologise for taking time away for yourself when you give us all of your content, thank you John.

[@roiitzkovich4545]

Dream Team is one of those "yeah t's good" kinda games. It's basically the Sonic equivalent of Super Mario 3D Land. Nothing about it is flat out amazing or even great, but it's a well-crafted and enjoyable time. For a mobile game, it doesn't have to be more than that. If Hardlight were to be hired to make mainline games alongside Sonic Team, I think they might be able to make an honest-to-god banger. Let Sonic Team work on their open-zone games, while Hardlight make more course-clear Sonic games. You're offering the new playstyle, while still keeping the old playstyle. Sounds like a winning recipe IMO.

That's actually not an bad comparison. As someone who also enjoys 3D Land, this was an nice break for Sonic and what they did was overall good. Sure it's no Adventure 1 & 2 levels of deep & experimental game. But it doesn't need to be and for an mobile game, that's cool. I would say Dream Team is my 2nd favorite 3D Sonic game next to Generations.

Your words at the 24:00 mark really hit home Johnny. I haven't commented or interacted since I became a fan way back during shovel knight or the Mario maker video....one of those ones. As I never really feel I had anything important to add but I think im gonna start making more of a effort to change that. Your Story with your struggles and words of advice for up and coming creators was perfectly timed since im about to start my channel doing videos on personal review/retrospective of a game with some humor but transcribing and playing a song or two of the game. Its been alot of work and the imposter syndrome is hitting hard but your message does help in me just shutting that noise down and just doing it. So thank you for the inspiration, the words.

After that concert, I told my band mates that I’m gonna take a sabbatical leave until January 2024. I’m glad I did that, so I’m happy that you took a break before your job took you over. Love you Johnny. Keep up the good work

[@NanaKyoto]

Now that you mention the idea of freely switching between characters, it makes me wish for a new Sonic Heroes, but as it currently stands, one can only dream. As for that closing statement, I can honestly relate to that, losing the vision in passion projects is a terrible thing, it's okay to take a break should things reach a breaking point.

[@VonFirflirch]

I'd love to see a Heroes 2, where you can pick the individual members of your team or something. And more polish, that gameplay style is so fun and unique once you really grasp it... it deserves more, damnit x)

[@DarkFrozenDepths]

It's not just Heroes.... Sega needs to revisit quite a few of their old ideas cause the concepts can still work. In fact, I honestly liked the Werehog, but they also didn't fully take advantage of that system, especially on the platforming side. Yeah it lacked on the fighting side too, but I honestly appreciated it more when i didn't level up the werehog (although it's sad you need to avoid a mechanic to enjoy another one better). And no need to explain P06.... Just need to see that and it explains itself

[@JustAguy006]

​@@DarkFrozenDepths Combine the flair of Sonic Frontiers combat and the combos/basic moveset of the Werehog combat together for the ideal Sonic combat. But make that shit speedy as hell, I don't want Sonic Frontiers or Werehog levels of slow combat (ugh).

[@DarkFrozenDepths]

@@JustAguy006 well, that's where the "headgehog may cry" mod comes in. because it speeded up sonic's combos by a lot. main reason the combos were slower for unleashed and frontiers anyway was to make it more cinematic, but sega slowed it down TOO much for most people.

[@JustAguy006]

@@DarkFrozenDepths but it makes the enemies tanky and the combat slower even if the moves are much more fluid. I don’t want to fight a meat shield in a Sonic game, that’s counter productive.

Been watching your videos for legit 6 years. Which is insane to me. Thank you for it all. You deserve all the time in the world to prioritize getting right. My life is better bc of what you do, it doesn't get more valuable than that!

[@DoctorMinjinx]

No need to apologize, Johnny. Mental matter matters above all. Glad you’re doing better these days.

[@shadow111d]

do what you have to brother, noones bulletproof, we got your back

[@DJGlaceon991]

And we’re back!

[@Logster4202]

Johnny really is an OG. Love coming back to watch his content

[@DinoDave150]

Gosh, Selene's gotten so BIG since she first appeared in your Dark Souls review.

[@TheOldYoungOne]

You’re the best Johnny, please don’t think you’re letting fans down by not posting as often or keeping us in the loop with how the “next upload” is going, we appreciate all the work you’re doing and have done and just want the best for you. Been a viewer for a long time and check out the streams on the regular and will continue to support you no matter what you decide to do! Wish you, your family and friends all the best!

12:03 Wow, You had to play the audio clip from Batman Forever did you? Also 12:11 Good grief that facial reaction cracks me up.

[@WestSky1994]

I hope you have a fun break you deserve it. 😊 Good luck

[@squidapple9662]

It's been like an entire month or more and I only just now realize when you're saying "Ariem" it sounds like "R-E-M" aka Rem sleep, god damnit

[@justsimon4196]

I’ve been watching your videos since 2011. I was 9 years old. I’ve lived a whole decade watching you talk about games. And I don’t regret it. Never ever apologize Johnny. Whatever time you need, please take it cause we’ll still be here for you no matter what. It’s always worth it man. And I’m glad you noticed where you were at mentally and took steps to make things better. Thank you for all you’ve done for us 🧡

Not the store itself but every now and then a game that was stuck in there gets ported to something else and it usually ends being way better than i thought. Jenny LeClue is a recent one for me it's a nice experience.

[@zikilovesgenesis]

Love you Johnny, take care of yourself. Any content you give is a blessing and I'm happy to watch whenever is best for you to upload. I've turned to your videos in some of my darkest times, your personality has always been such a comfort for me.

[@esmooth919]

I tell everybody i know, as someone who suffered from depression more than once: *_TAKE CARE OF YOU FIRST!_* Your mental health (as well as physical) is MUCH more important than trying to hurry up and finish projects on time for some seemingly demanding customers. Those who actually appreciate you, will appreciate that about you, and will care as a result! Johnny, I hope you get/got all the rest you need/needed, my man.

[@sleepysupra]

Been watching since the end of month of sonic 2, and you've always delivered chill, funny, and quality videos. If you need to take some more time for yourself then go for it. I'll support you all the way

[@Ubritoons96]

At last, the chad has returned from his temporary hibernation. Super Mario Wonder review or not I’m glad you’re back Johnny. XD After Review portion Edit: If I had known what you were going through before I made my innocent jokey “In The Moment” comment, I would’ve worded it better, so apologies on that if it came off as selfish. I’m SO sorry you had to go through so much mental baggage behind the scenes by 2023’s end dude. But yes, you are allowed to take a break whenever you need one John. PLEASE don’t feel ashamed about not making video content if you’re not up to, ya know? We love you dude, keep being awesome and remember, your health is WAY important then getting videos out, we can wait after all. Have fun and take it easy..👍❤️

[@Diego-lr6xe]
