Why Everyone Is Quitting Their Job To Play Call of Duty

It’s a good film, however, a lot of his logic doesn’t line up. If he was to accurately portray the concept of video games filling a competition void. He should have mentioned how subjective that was to the individual, and how all humans seek out competition in some form such as a sports, debate, video games, etc.

[@megaslayercho]

This video snuck up on me like Randy Orton,like I didnt even have time to "watch out watch out!",before I found myself on the ground overwhelmed by the ammount of DAMN TRUTH that was pooring like a water fall from the screen. I dont even play COD and this is the first video I have seen from this channel. Been a gamer all my life and have seen PLENTY of gaming related content over the years,but lately I havent really been watching that much gameplay related vids(other than some sc2 esports). Most of the stuff I watch lately is stuff related about economics(like Currency vs Money a series by mike maloney,would greatly recommend to anyone),AI or "non authoritative sources of news information" like China unsensored,that help me get a better idea of what the powerfull agents in the world are actually busy doing,while the major smoke bomb distraction that is covid 19 is THE ONLY thing in the minds of 90% of people. So this video snuck up on me and it turned out to be 3 hours some of the most intelectual,most inspiring,deep ,well put together commentary I have seen in a while. The fact that all this epic revalations were beeing shared on the background of dank COD killstreakery,just blew my mind :D

Holy fucking shit. I have spent over a decade on KZbin watching videos, more than any average person would. If I had to estimate, I have probably viewed over half of a million videos on this platform and spent in excess of 10,000 hours consuming it’s content. I have watched videos on more subjects than I could count - gaming, politics, geography, cars, art, engineering, science, news, philosophy, history, nutrition, exercise, culture, instructional, motivational... I could go on forever. Not once have I found a video as important, engaging, and thought-provoking as this video was. This is a fucking masterpiece. This video has literally changed my world perspective and has helped me to realize not only how broken our system is here in America but also how it IS possible to improve it. Not to mention every other great point this video touches on in regards to humanity, philosophy, mental health, etc. Though there are some minor flaws in logic and reasoning here, the main points are nearly irrefutable. Cheers to you sir. I will forever be a fan after this. I hope that I can share this video with everyone one day. This is THE best video on KZbin I have ever seen.

[@gerthunderlord]

A beast of a video, with so many things to talk about, it is difficult to pick just one. The MW2 days were THE DAYS, no doubt about it and to this day, there has not been another game like that and it is a great starting point to explore the other themes of this video. Almost all things you said in regards to society and economy ring true outside of the US as well, like in Europe for example, the West as a whole actually. One point I can 100% confirm for myself is the productivity guilt you mentioned, the feeling of enjoying something, like a game, not being enough anymore, because it could also be content for a video, something more productive than playing a game exclusively for myself. It is made worse by KZbin punishing inactivity like there is literally no tomorrow. Kinda even more concerning, considering that this (KZbin) is already the preferable option to wage slavery in a job outside of my control. I think many other KZbinrs can relate, doing YT is often not just more fullfilling, less draining in terms of time and energy, but also better paying than a lot of the normal jobs available. We live in weird times and this video, above any other one addressing those topics, sums up why exactly.

Ansonsten sehe ich für unsere Generation und auch die aktuell kommenden Generationen sehr schwarz. Ich kann es von den Leuten in meiner Community total bestätigen, fast keiner weiß mehr was er mit seinem Leben konkret machen will, die Schule trägt 0 dazu bei, sich fürs tatsächliche Leben vorzubereiten oder zu orientieren, kaum wer hat Perspektiven etwas bewirken zu können. Die meisten machen halt irgendwas, was sie halt aktuell so machen können, aber zufrieden sind sie damit nicht und wie wir 2020 gelernt haben, ist unsere Gesellschaft, Wirtschaft und öffentliche Ordnung sehr fragil, während unsere Politiker teilweise komplett überfordert sind. Was am ende dabei raus kommt, ist eine Politik zugunsten der großen Firmen, während kleine Betriebe durch die Krise reihenweise kaputt gehen. Das Problem ist bei uns genau das selbe wie in Amerika und was machen die Leute dann? Zocken, auf YT, in irgendwelchen Streams oder Netflix rumhängen. Genau so ist es.

Es ist ein bisschen verzweifelnd zu sehen, wie diese Themen irgendwie schon jedem bewusst sind, aber die wenigsten das Gefühl haben, irgendwas dagegen tun zu können. Ich befürchte, vorausgesetzt die Boomergeneration lässt bis dahin unsere Erde halbwegs intakt, dass sich erst etwas ändern wird, wenn es in der Politik einen demografischen Wandel gibt und unsere Millenialgeneration die politischen Entscheidungsträger stellt.

However, as Bdobbins pointed out, the way it is designed is utterly horrible, and often ends up handicapping a students motivation and self-identity because we want to fit in with everyone else.

Jesus christ I've never watched anything as nostalgic, sad, funny, scientific, intelligent and adrenaline-filled astrofuck with brigdes between topics that are longer than Golden Gate yet make perfect sense. I completely zoned out watching the video on one take. This just might be the best video on KZbin ever.

My friend recommended me this video about a year ago now. I put it off for so long thinking that it was just a boring 3 hour video on the idea of bored and lazy people giving up. I wish I saw this video then... The drive I have now to create my own path but also smell the roses along the way. I know what I want to do and I know the difference it's going to make. I hope everyone can understand even a fraction of this video and come out a better person from it. Thank you for this master piece ✊

I started this and ended up watching the whole thing in one sitting as the commentary was gripping and enthralling with tons of good bits, stories and anecdotes, and interesting psychological facts. I love the self expression here and hope everyone expresses themselves with truth and realness like that as I saw myself and my friends in the stories in this video. I love the fervent passion in it and hope that I can take that into my own life and pursuits

idk how many times ive watched this over the years, just such a solid 3h of hyper relatable commentary

[@willsmith5935]

To be as open as I've ever been on the internet, I'm 15, a freshman in high school currently. The long hours of relentless nothingness and painful hours of schoolwork, along with the nonexistent amount of joy and excitement I feel from completing it, have completely demotivated me from doing anything in high school. Not to mention my interests lie in things other than school, I want to one day become an independent game developer and then build a company atop that, I want to do this to bring others joy and because I revere the prospect of being the hand of god, if only it be in a virtual space. All my life I've been a grade a student, near if not always top of the class, but I feel as if now I am learning nothing but abstract and oblique concepts genuinely no one cares about nor will care about in 20 years. I know I can succeed if I apply myself, but the process is wholly and staggeringly unenjoyable. Now a days I seriously spend time contemplating either leaving school, or fluking and just completely losing all cares I "should have," like doing well in school and such. I have for a long time also considered just getting a job, because there at least it doesn't feel like your life is stalling, you make people happy and you have an inherent objective; survival. Now, think of all that I just said about why I hate life. Video games have no problems accomplishing these things. This is why I feel so much more... right, spending my time majorly playing video games. Maybe I'm actually depressed instead or I have some other mental condition I am unaware of, but even If this was the case, me playing video games makes my mind no longer suffer and dwell in those dark places. I never seriously consider just dying instead of experiencing more of this when I play a video game. I am dead serious when I type, "I would rather do anything then continue going to and participating in school right now," because I really, REALLY would just rather not participate in that horrendous chore. You know what is not that by all margins? Games. Fun and fulfilling things. Videos like this that expand my knowledge into things I and the majority of society either do or should care about. Videos that help me get one step closer to achieving my aspirations. School, or at least all the ones I have access to, do none of that. I already know what I want to do in life, society and law just literally will not allow me to do so. And you know what prevents me from thinking about these things that bring me hate and spite? You know what serves as a reprieve from these garbage things? Video games, and I apologize to those who would call it better for me otherwise, but I trust my self more than anyone else, and this trust tells me that the best thing to do this to optimize my life to be as happy as possible. School is not an optimal thing in this equation, however gaming and watching videos are optimal, so I call to replace one with the other. And I trust myself to have chosen the optimal outcome. Edit 1: 9:40 really resonates with me.

[@jacobastien3163]

You're a smart kid

[@jamiemb17]

Bro, just get yourself through school, get as good grades as you can putting in as little effort as possible, enjoy what you can of it (hopefully you have friends there who you have fun with). Don't go to college if you don't know what you want to do career-wise (and don't just tell yourself you want to do something just because other people tell you you need to have a long-term plan.) And then you can make all your own choices once you're out of school.
