Why Dakotaz' Career Died

At one point in time, Dakotaz was one of Fortnite's biggest streamers. He peaked as the 9th most followed on Twitch, and had no problems gaining over 30,0000 concurrent viewers during his Fortnite Livestreams. However, in recent times, this number has dropped to an average of around 1,000 concurrent viewers, while his KZbin channel has lost around 200,000 subscribers since its peak in early 2019 over 2 years ago. Was the cause something more than the simple decline of Fortnite's popularity?

I watched Dakotaz briefly in 2020 and every time I watched his stream he would literally respond to every message. He was so damn wholesome with his fans. Unlike others who get angry, he would always keep a chill vibe. Only reason I stopped watching him was because i was never a Fortnite guy. I actually thought he blew up with Among Us, as I often saw him in massive lobbies with Valkyrae, Disguised Toast and OTV. Like I genuinely thought most people liked him during the Among Us phase and things died down when the game died down. Had no clue people felt he was just hopping on a trend. I dunno. He was or pretty great at Among Us and was enjoyable to watch. All I know is, he is a really good dude. He has a killer “radio voice” and it would be such a waste if his career ends. He deserves the success :/ I really hope he continues to stay strong with his mental health and his viewership grows eventually.

He’s really rude and smug sometimes. I got blocked on his stream for “defending” a hater when all I said was “it doesn’t really make sense to stoop to his level”. Then dakotaz proceded to block me and call me a piece of shit. I only said what I said because both him and his chat mocked and shittalked this “hater” on his stream that said something along the lines of “you’re boody at this game”, which is a dumb troll comment that should just be straight up ignored. I realize trolls and haters are annoying but I found it so offputting how dakotaz and his stream proceeded to mock him and make fun of his channel and channel name, left a really bad taste in my mouth. This is a man in his thirties that has been streaming for 10 years, he should know how to control his temper and not respond like that.

10:46-11:03 That speech right there hits really hard, it's very deprecating how these trends pratically control the algorithm on modern KZbin and how it forces content creators to constantly change even if they're not ready or no willing to, thus having to risk their revenue if they decide to stay out of it. When I was a little younger I dreamed of becoming a content creator and showing the world what I enjoyed, in search of maybe a community that would share the same tastes, but perhaps that dream was left behind alongside the time KZbin actually followed their slogan: Broadcast Yourself.

As someone who only knew about DK from Among Us, I really disagree with the notion that he didn't care for the game and only played Among Us because it was the "popular game". You could tell in the morning lobbies that he really enjoyed the game and all of the people he played with. I think the big problem with his Among Us content is that while he was absolutely hilarious, he wasn't particularly good at the game and mostly tried to be funny rather than play seriously, so often ended up making really good Among Us content for everyone else in the lobby. DK being hilariously wrong is great for a Disguised Toast, Hafu, or 5up video, but isn't that appealing as a Dakotaz video.

Anyone else remember when they found out fpsrussia wasn't actually russian?

[@bludfire01]

I've never been one for watching streams and stuff but me and my friend always used to watch his fortnite snipe videos. Some sick plays. Seemed like a proper cool guy.

[@henrypola2951]

Hey mate, keep up the great vids, was one of ur first 100 subscribers after we copped a dub in fortnite couple years ago

[@kingofxanax]

i will always love dk, such a genuine guy. loved since the beginning of fortnite

[@timmyturner999_]

Still love dk he might not be as popular as he once was but he still streams and his positivity is still there such a genuine guy and the old memories of his early days in fortnite as Wolvezz will always be remembered as part of my childhood

[@zimkhithamdekazi612]

You are very entertaining man thanks

[@JRBeast-nw3xg]

This morning i went to his account because I randomly remembered him and man his content is miserable what happened to him. Sad to see such a cool stream fall like this. Mental health is something that should be discussed more honestly shiz sucks

[@Lightwaverable]

I don't know about everyone else, but I watch more Dakotaz than I ever have in my life thanks to Among Us and the group friends that he played with. That's when I discovered his one of a kind humour and awesome personality.

[@blizyon30fps86]

You’re probably the only one as most of his among us vids don’t even reach 100k views

[@GeneaVlogger]

Dakotaz was by far my favorite gaming streamer and he was always my go-to when for live-stream when a new fortnite season came out, before fortnite went south. It was always a good video when he would play teams with Ceez and HD. So sad to see him have so many troubles, but after watching this video I want to go watch some DK.

[@quantum_w]

This makes me wanna cry man, dk was a hero to me in middle school and to think he was suffering just to make content for us

[@cell2179]

No he was making content for money Not for you

[@quantum_w]

@@cell2179 I mean that’s every content creator you downer

[@R.K_Chalkboard]

Damn, that hit hard. It wasn't like the Ninja documentary, where you felt bad for him, but forgot about it in a few minutes. I actually feel like I might remember this doc, and I don't even know this dude.

[@ElliYeetYT]

Hey guys look on the bright side, he still hits those.

[@MilkmanCR]

1:42 just wanted to say Warz isnt a battle royale game at all. Just a zombie survival game. It was mostly garbage but I LOVED it. Miss the OG 2013 Warz

[@danespilman8213]

Back like 2-3 years ago he would stream in the morning and I would watch him basically daily before school on twitch. Dude used to make me happy to wake up, sad to see him in this sad state

[@krissalv8583]

My man still thriving bruv

[@alex3016]

1000 viewers is still p good he can at least support himself even if he's at a low point

[@SackVegasAnime]

He posted a video today after a year long break. Usually on these fall videos the creator makes terrible choices or does messed up things. This was a good guy battling his own personal problems. Send your support if ya see this.

[@trashcanjoe4902]

It’s a trip to be surprised about what you reminisce over. I very strongly remember always seeing a dakotaz segment in every fortnite clip video I’d ever watched, always hitting some amazing snipe and yelling “we hit those!” And to be honest, I personally wasn’t super into his channel. But man, seeing something so present in the community completely disappear, hits me right in the feels thinking about it. Probably has more to do with missing the feel of the old fortnite than anything but same difference I suppose

[@jive8690]

Aye let’s go I love seeing how much internetajay has grown

[@whatwhowhyhow]

Dakotaz seems like an amazing person. Hope he can live a better life from now on

[@rifledragon8133]

He is my comfort streamer. Whenever I felt down, his streams always cheered me up. He is my favourite streamer by far. He deserves so much more.

[@xiiiskrrt]

Crazy to see Sunny and Ajay collab

[@Devils_Advocate423]

As someone who has been watching DK for years his highs and lows were so obvious to me. When he first returned from France he was so negative…I’m not knocking him at all because I know it wasn’t intentional. But I was suffering from major depression and watched him as an escape. I had to stop watching him for a while. When you suffer from depression, instinctively you hide it. You try to appear to happy and “normal” but it had gotten to a point where he couldn’t hide it anymore. Early 2020 my recovery from major depression started and at some point his did to. I am so proud of him and where he is now. He seems happy and fulfilled and he has the right mindset. As long as he focuses on what makes him happy he’ll be okay. I’m truly happy for DK…
