xQc Reacts to 'Why Ricegum's Channel Died' | SunnyV2

[@rookiemaster4318]

Reason of irrelevancy is that he really stopped uploading videos to his channel, he eventually started streaming again on twitch during the pandemic averaging 15-20k live. At the end of the day, the man just doesn’t care anymore as much as he used to.

[@Shooottta]

Yeah when he streams he average 15 to 20k live so the thing he dont even stream

[@Polyrux]

I have to say I appreciate XQC actually linking the content he reacts too. A lot of people think that saying in the video which video you're watching is enough but it really isn't. It helps click-through rate much like a CTA is effective. Having the ability to click once and be there is so much better than a viewer googling the video. That % of viewers who check the original content is going to be so much higher. While "react" content certainly has it's connotations and downfalls, I do think in a video streaming platform that actively encourages it... Linking is the LEAST you can do to actually help the creator. And I don't even like SunnyV2.

On the the gamba take, we’re taught about gambling from a young age. Arcades are gambling to earn prizes, but even if you’ve never been to an arcade you’ll find gambling in supermarkets, Walmarts, etc. All those claw machines are legit gambling and it could be argued there close to scams. The first dollar that goes in almost doubles the cost of the stuff animal you have a shot of winning. For people to watch a gambling site that’s 18+ and compare it to this scam mystery box it’s just incorrect.

Getting old comments at 12:00 make little to no sense, as always, chat is dumb as fuck. As you get older your body doesn't require as much energy and regeneration as it did at your peak. Considering that X doesn't do anything, doesn't work and is basically a living potato since he started streaming full time, I'd say his peak was in his late teenage years, which is when he supposedly slept less than he is sleeping now. So if he isn't lying and he really did require less sleep when he was active, then it's true, he has some sort of problem now.
