XDefiant is Dying, So What's Next? (Channel Update)

[@Qrayzyy]

Appreciate all the support yall have been showing me over the past few days. Really does mean the world to me

[@mgarcia121752]

Thank you for your positivity. That is the #1 trait that I subscribed to your channel. I will admit, I have never played any Call of Duty games since I was more into fighting genres like MK, Street Fighter, etc. XD brought that joy back even while going through tough times. Keep having that winning attitude bro, it will always propel you higher. Peace.

[@Qrayzyy]

Thank you bro! this comment means a whole lot man

[@MDEGlorious]

I’m here for whatever route you take I enjoy you as the creator honestly I don’t know how often you hear tha🧡

[@Qrayzyy]

appreciate that more than ya know bro

[@greg_one_izm]

I hope we get a spoofed client for xdefiant once it gets taken offline similar to the H2M project so we can at least come back and re-live the glory days every now and then! and Once again (I know im repeating myself a lot but idc) I'm SUPER excited for that subnautica playthrough. As a sidenote, still havent had the chance to play a game with you! Need to get it done before the end, despite the timezone and server differences I'm really keen to join in on a custom lobby one time :)

[@Qrayzyy]

definitely hope we could see something like that! would be great. and subnautica coming very soon maybe even on stream! and bro we’ll definitely get some games in imma run custom lobbies this weekend probably!

[@whiteboikev]

ill b on Rivals too yo. been so hyped for it and was gonna b juggling tht with XD but now we going all in

[@Qrayzyy]

bro i played last night it was so fun! bouta make a video on it today. im really excited to play again

[@COSS.___]

honest positive motivating what a F'ing G 💪🏻 keep it up bro keep grinding and hopefully one of those new games are fun and we end up playing a shiii ton of 🔥 i kinda like shutterline its seems similar to XD but idk about nft's too 🤦🏻‍♂️ i never heard or seen marvel rivals amma about to check your video about it and see 🤝🏻

[@Qrayzyy]

hell yea bro well be alright and land on our feet for sure. appreciate you always sticking with me brotha

[@Dartlin]

I can totally c not posting xd as much it’s kinda burying urself in the algorithm not moving on

[@Qrayzyy]

100% bro. every once in awhile i will but staying consistent doesn’t make as much sense from a creator side

[@ericbrintonmusic]

what i really appreciate about your channel is your content creation is focused on having fun and being competitive, being proud of your snipes and doing a montage, not just focusing on the state of the game upload after upload. Your channel above all others, in my experience, was a nice escape from the toxicity on the subreddit. This channel is what XD content should have been looking like through thick and thin, so thank you for that. I am in a similar boat, I was planning on playing XD for the determinable future but now I have no idea what to play.. Thinking titanfall 2 myself

[@Qrayzyy]

Dude this really means a lot, thank you. I’ve always wanted to enjoy the game for what it is and not just talk about the problems so I’m glad you found it to be like that. Staying positive/optimistic is something I always strive for and it doesn’t change with content. the world needs more positivity so i might as well try and speed it! Really appreciate the comment again bro. And when it comes to games titanfall that’s definitely a good shout. i’m hoping a new one comes out soon that would be dope and i would definitely love it. right now playing marvel rivals as i was a big overwatch guy growing up. honestly it’s been a blast so maybe try that out if you’re into those games! back on XD today so keep an eye out editing todays video now

[@AtZeroDansGames]

It really sad xdefiant now X Dead i really think it could have been the next rainbow six if they just had the right people in charge with support

[@Qrayzyy]

100% bro

[@Potatostationproisgarbage]

Not just that if player count did not drop rapidly and if people spent on the game it would still be alive to be fair but unfortunately that's not the case

[@Jadon1115]

We’re here for you bro, and your work ethic. Posting daily, putting out quality videos, streaming. You deserve all your subs and recognition. Keep grinding. This news is upsetting to all of us, but you never know what will lie ahead.

[@Qrayzyy]

really appreciate that bro

[@waff6ix]

BEST PART ABOUT MAKING CONTENT IS THE IMPACT U LEAVE ON PEOPLE💯🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@Qrayzyy]

real shit.

[@DADDY_DINGLE]

Idc what u post I will always watch

[@Qrayzyy]

love ya dingle

[@JohnCocojr]

I’m gon be here either way

[@Qrayzyy]

that’s means lot bro for real

[@whiteboikev]

Xdefiant 2 is gonna hit. pray i’m here to see the day

[@MDEGlorious]

Gotta see XDefiant 2

[@Minx717]

It will be whatever Mark makes next.

[@solobusiness4320]

There’s not a big enough core fanbase to justify making an x defiant two. However,if they did and fixed all the problems that were there with xdefiant one. It could be potentially successful

[@greg_one_izm]

@@solobusiness4320 Personally I feel if Mark makes his own standalone game with the same philosophies but without using other game's IP it will have more chance to live on. Xdefiant using ubisoft IP is half the reason this game has to die and has no chance of being revived by another company, but I guess it's also half the reason the game even exists in the first place so who knows

[@jasonadersonwedion9874]

Go get a job

[@tzkdragscope6380]

Ok so imo, for what its worth, xdefiant closing down has opened up more options for u and your channel. You could be a variety streamer/youtuber, from horror games playthroughs (make playlists for these kind of things), to ranked matches in marvel rivals, apex legends and much more. Dont stick to one game man, keep things fresh for yourself and for those watching. Either way im still gonna keep watching and keep on liking the vids ❤❤

[@Qrayzyy]

appreciate your feedback bro. i’ve always felt the opposite and try to find a niche at first just to not mess up the algorithm but over the next couple weeks im definitely gonna try out a TON of variety and we’ll see how it goes. definitely excited to try new games tho. Marvel rivals today shatterline tomorrow and probably OG fortnite after that. hype

[@leana339]

Lol Shatterline that dumbsterfire. It's an old game that released originally like 3 years ago on Steam. Then they decided a few months ago to sell their Soul and made it into an NFT Crypto slop game and removed it from Steam and everyone lost their purchases. Then they rereleased the NFT Crypto slop version on Epic launcher only for like 5$. You must be seriously lost to even give that a go.

[@Qrayzyy]

yea that’s what i’m most worried about is the skeemy part of crypto. i’m just tryna game😂 but yes ill definitely be cautious. thanks for the heads up!

[@vizhal007]

Excited to see the evolution of this channel! ❤

[@Qrayzyy]

Appreciate you my guy! I feel the same way bro

[@sk84lyfe1211]

Hate the news but I’ll still watch your videos

[@Qrayzyy]

me too bro. i really appreciate that tho!!

[@beaumilburn351]

What ever you end up doing bro, I’ll be there to watch it

[@Qrayzyy]

appreciate that my man❤️

[@saviorswan4176]

I was playing today after hearing the news really sucks has fun gunplay and stuff just wish it coulda worked out for them

[@Qrayzyy]

yea they need just a bit more time to cook. definitely sucks big time

[@Delbeck99]

Xdefiant was my last hope for the fps genre 😭 i refuse to play any other shooter im a fifa gamer now 😭

[@Qrayzyy]

bro try marvel rivals! trust

[@wrayzur]

It’s def better to move on. It’s sad but it’s the way it is and if you want your channel to grow you gotta be winning to… grow.

[@Qrayzyy]

100% bro. as sad as it is, just the reality

[@jasonadersonwedion9874]

Marvels rivals is here who cares about a dead game grow up

[@Qrayzyy]

appreciate the engagement brotha❤️

[@RonRon0110]

Completely different games don't like that game at all nothing to do with the game just not the style I'm looking for

[@Tsmith_90]

How about poll based challenges? Pick from two games and highest percentage, you play it ?

[@Qrayzyy]

100% i can try that out bro! doing that today kinda with marvel rivals and shatterline tomorrow

[@mik-d5e]

You should try cutting the gameplay footage seperate from your facecam, so you keep more of good plays and so it feels more coherent

[@kplayzxp2376]

We are here for you brother🙏🙏

[@Qrayzyy]

thank you my guy

[@LawsOnJoystick]

did you ever play bloodhunt? i play since Alpha Playtest, they kept the servers open, but dont offer a new pass etc. its cool to go back to, but i think they only have bout 300 players at any time. The game was awesome, but was over looked by many

[@Qrayzyy]

haven’t heard of it but ill definitely look into it!

[@Oddsboy]

Hop on marvel, rivals see what all about :)

[@Qrayzyy]

recording a video on it rn😁

[@garryhowell8400]

did you know all the skins and camo's are unlocked

[@Qrayzyy]

yes i saw. makes me kinda sad man:/

[@KevinKing_aka_StealthBomber318]

😢

[@Qrayzyy]

❤️

[@XHonzo]

I'm x defient creator

[@Krydolph]

I scuff at all the noobs bragging about how much they played with mostly around 600hrs... I have 930, I played every single day.... But I haven't touched it since they said it would be closed down! Maybe if they didn't close down so no new players could join, and maybe if they didn't unlock everything... If there maybe could have been a hope, no matter how small.... But they effectively made it clear, that it is dead no matter what, and they don't even want to leave open the door for it being saved. I expect I will check out season 3 though...

[@Qrayzyy]

yea i hear you on that bro. with no new players it’s sure to be over. wish they didn’t do that. and yea giving everyone everything definitely hurts it more. tough to see bro and i feel ya. didn’t play as much as you but put a lot of time into the game and content so i understand the frustration

[@ShlumpGaming]

Try Delta Force! The Finals is dumb because it has rigged matchmaking, which is what ruined COD and is what XDefiant was against!

[@Krydolph]

It is just a completely different game! They are both FPS, but besides that, they coudn't be more different. The itch XDefiant scratched is not met in any way by DeltaForce, doesn't mean its a bad game, but its not really a substitute imo... Also the monetization is gross!

[@Qrayzyy]

i’ll check it out when controller support comes but i have a feeling it won’t be my type of game. definitely will give it a shot tho

[@XHonzo]

Hello

[@Sfishh]

Just watch the video first. No need to be the first commenter kiddo

[@alhamza4065]

Thats rude

[@Qrayzyy]

hi!

[@aikighost]

For me? Path of Exile 2.

[@Qrayzyy]

A ton of people recommending this. definitely have to look into it

[@aikighost]

@Qrayzyy early access literally went live today.

[@Extirpo]

All good my man. Tailwinds. 🙌

[@Qrayzyy]

🤙💚

[@vepsuu106]

Its just so fucking sad..

[@Qrayzyy]

i know bro…praying for a miracle

[@OuroborosGhoul]

Path of Exile 2

[@Qrayzyy]

a lot of people saying that…ill definitely check it out!

[@joshuahawkins7827]

Try marvel rivals bro

[@Qrayzyy]

i did last night on stream for a couple games. it was so fun! bouta record a video on it today!

[@Meyhem33]

I'm not a fan of you bailing on XD content. The game has only been out 6 months and it has 6 months left to live. Everyone that plays it is gonna keep playing it and obviously wanting to keep watching it. If u guys bail on it now it'll have thensame affect as all the huge creators bailing on it last summer. Please don't throw dirt in the coffin just yet. Promote the petition. I have spent all day pushing it all over YT and social media, I even got a bunch of guys from work to sign it..and they don't even play. Its been 1 day and its already at 2,490 signatures. Grab tight and hold on man.

[@mik-d5e]

Why continue investing content in a game that will cease to exist in 6 months? I think people are rapidly going to stop playing the game with no progression and the prospect that the game is just gonna die. The petition won't do anything, I'm sorry I try to see the glass half full but this is a commercial product from a private company and if Ubisoft doesn't see enough money coming from Xdefiant it doesn't matter how many passionate fans ask for them to keep the game alive, they will kill it. Also let the man try growing his channel, he will never grow his channel making videos about a game no new players can access.

[@Meyhem33]

@milk-ub9zo why do you care about what others do with their time. How does any of this interrupt your precious life? Spend more time worrying about you man.

[@Qrayzyy]

I definitely hear you bro. I’m not 100% bailing but making consistent videos on it like I used to would pretty much kill my channel eventually. I will definitely promote the petition more. i’ve sent it to my discord a few times and signed myself but don’t see it doing much besides showing ANOTHER company that we care. I see no way of Ubisoft themselves bringing back XD as sad as it is. Every update XD makes over the next 6 months i’ll cover in a video but I just cannot stick to it 100%. I totally hear you point of view tho but hopefully that explains mine a bit more.

[@XVenomLordX]

GO PLAY SHATTERLINE

[@Qrayzyy]

will do brotha

[@XVenomLordX]
