Watching lifesteal never felt complete without you, and it never will feel complete anymore, but as someone who would've done the same if I were in your shoes, it really is respectable, and I along with many others will miss your lifesteal content.

[@jordan.rianne]

[@jonathannerz1696]

I’ve been a subscriber since before you had 7000 subscribers, and it is awesome to see how far you’ve come. You’re production value has skyrocketed, but your content still has that same feel and charm as when I first found your channel. Keep up the good work man.

[@xaviersavard6343]

Im watching the echocraft series and yeah, its amazing how far hes come.maybe a return to the roots is warranted?

[@avienzo]

It was your choice, and we respect that. You're great, no matter if it's Lifesteal, Hoplite, speedrunning, No Name, we love you, Parker.

[@andybrewer0]

Just curious, what is No Name?

[@avienzo]

@andybrewer0 it's a small SMP which is owned by SkipTheTutorial! He posts episodes in his alternate channel called Skippy T, and the SMP consists of SkipTheTutorial (Skip), Sandiction (Sand), Rekrap2 (Rek/Parker) (obviously), BranzyCraft (Branzy), JayM0ji (Jay) and Failboat (Dan/Fail)! Warning, some of the content isn't PG. xD

Hey its great that you decided not to recycle the same or similar content ideas and decided to make more wacky, challenging and amazing content with crazy new ideas. It shows your growth as a creator and I cant wait for the awesome new videos where you push minecraft to its limits or goof with friends! Good Luck and keep doing what you do, we love it!

[@kevelle]

You have entertained me for these years and I enjoyed it. Keep up the hard work we love you! ❤

[@Gem_catT]

Lifesteal was something that I remember about a year ago I'd go onto youtube MULTIPLE times a day just to check all of my fav lifesteal youtubers (you included) to check and see if any new videos had been uploaded. It inspired me so much to do better in life and to just be creative with everything that I do. I do agree life is about change and those memories will not be forgotten even though i'm not part of the friends that made it a reality by just having fun. I'm hoping to see were this goes because everything changes as you said before. I think its great having oyur own server and how much you've stuck with the whole project. Thanks for being such an inspiration both irl and just in a sandbox video game it really means alot to me even though we've never talked (and you probably won't even read this post LOL). Keep doing awesome reck its so awesome watching someone's first few videos on KZbin and then watching the newer and newer ones and seeing how they've changed. Its really amazing. Thanks for the inspiration my man ❤

[@Randomwords247]

Duuude its been such a great journey watching your lifesteal videos! And honestly respect your leaving and choices in this, its better to leave a server you're getting burnt out on then try and force content imo. Looking forward to whatever you do next and to the public lifesteal!! :D

[@Orca4135]

This is a really exciting project, and I’m gonna miss your lifesteal videos a lot. I hope you’ll still do some Minecraft videos on other projects or just having fun with friends. It always is a good day when I get to watch you doing some super interesting new idea for a game with Boosfer, or Branzy, or Parrot. Anyways thanks for all the fun times, and life has change as much as I hate it, so good luck on wherever this channel takes you next!

[@oJqmmy]

I thank you for making content on the lifesteal smp. Some of your videos positively resonated with me. One's like the Pancake and Waffle one and multiple others. You had a good run on lifesteal and I'm eager to see what's next! Have a great day! :)

This really hit hard, I had started watching rekrap a couple of weeks before he blew up. It felt new, interesting, story based, the French ideas felt amazing and fun, and... That's when i was starting to go away from Minecraft, but after a while, everything became the same, everyone just tryna please the algorithm to try to get the most 8 year olds to watch there videos, Minecraft was not meant to be this, 1.16 was the peak, then it turned into a cash grab, for Microsoft and the youtubers, now.. I just grew out of Minecraft. I guess this is one of the last times we will play this childhood game.. That's sad. Edit: fresh* 🥖🥖🥖
