Why do I not play games?
Why?
Does
Poopeepie
Don't play
video games?
"I don't watch PewDiePie but I keep seeing thumbnails for his recent videos and does he play video games-?"
Does Pewdiepie even play games anymo'?
"Does PewDiePie even still play real video games or he is just trying to be
rANnd0m
and funny by saying offensive
shit"
" 'Member, 'member when poodiepie
used to play good games"
Oh, Last Guardian wasn't good game for you?
Oh I'm sorry
"I miss the old poodiepie.."
"I'm heavily disappointed in poodiepie.."
"I missed when you used to play games."
"I miss poodiepie playing games!"
Where the GODDAMN GAMES!?
GOD FUCKIN DAMMIT!
Heyheyheyheyheyheyheyheyhey ccjccjcjjc
(pewds beatboxing?)
Shhhghdfhgshut th fuck up
Calm down.
In 2016
We played some fuckin' awesome games
Inside-
uh..
Uncharted 4-
uhh..
Walking Dead Season 3-
Uhhh
Fire- Firewatch-
Yeah? That was one episode but uh
Last Guardian-
*Sexy chair spins*
*thinking over life choices*
Yea I think that was abou-
BAYONETTA!!
Yeah, that's right
We played the games eheh
Ok?
Okay, well if you want games so fucking badly
You just have to fuckin' scroll down here....
Click here...
And..
Oh my god.
There should be a couple thousand videos for you there.
You're welcome
OOH UNDERTALE
We played Undertale-
Three-thousand four-hundred and eighty-one videos--
I'm pretty sure
There is plenty of gameplay for you out there
Actually,
Before I start this video, I just want to say thanks a lot
That sounded very sarcastic.
But I actually meant it.. (god damn it)
Thank you guys so much
For all the support on my last video,
about forced positivity.
It was kinda like a
"Sensitive topic"
I don't...know.
but
Whether you agreed with me or not
I really appreciate it.
The sensi-sensibility
sen se--
Yeah.
From you guys.
I didn't really expect it to blow up so much.
I... I ...
It was literally just a topic that I...
I thought a lot about...
I guess you can say
This video
Kind of be like a part 2 of that...umm
Because games...man
Fuckin'
GAMES
Basically one thing that I brought up in that video was that
I used to kind of fake that I was really enjoying a video game
Because I thought more people wouldn't enjoy watching it that way
And so I would play a shit ton of games that I couldn't care less about
Just because I knew it would get me views on YouTube
And that's pretty much...I think...I think that's pretty much Happy Wheels for you
these like, super popular games
Like, no one is playing Happy Wheels in 2017
And actually enjoying it
I...I refuse to believe that and I think it's same with Minecraft
Like, these games were- they're just so popular
So people play them, regardless if they enjoy them or not
And I thought I was at a point where I'm like
Okay, well, I shouldn't have to do that anymore
And I think people...people see through
Like, that's another thing I didn't really mention/talk about in the other video as well is that
I think you guys are smarter than that as well than I think you can tell
If I'm not really having a good time playing a game...you can see that
So that's why I don't play a lot of games that I used to play
And my fans are kind of pissed off at me for it
There's just no way to win
If I play, I lose; If I don't play, I lose
So I might as well just go, and be selfish, and think about me
Because yes, it is my job to be - to entertain - to entertain you guys and if you guys are entertained with me playing Happy Wheels
Then maybe I should just shut the fuck up and do it
But I also think you guys don't want a fake version of me
I...I...think at least
erm...
I think you guys want me to be honest
I think we all...everyone on YouTube
Kind of put up a fake version of themselves
...or a different version of themselves
Like, literally every YouTuber I've met speaks differently to you
rather than to a camera
I think th-that's pretty normal...but...it's fucking true
to everyone
I think that's fine but I also feel like I wanna- when I talk to you guys
I want to be a version of me that feels genuine at least
I don't want to go "Ah Happy Wheels!"
BRAHHHHHHHHH
Even though it will get me more views
and I know...and I know no one is gonna believe me when I say this...
I don't think views is everything
-Nasal Chuckling-
S-stupid...stupid lie
-Chuckling-
I think Happy Wheels is kinda like...okay, it's so...such a funny game
Don't get me wrong
But like all the gore and all that shit
It's funny for a while
But then its like...the same joke over and over and over
and its just, like, okay- well, it's clearly not funny anymore
and if you still think it's funny then you're clearly faking it
and I think it's the same thing with like, FNAF, and I think that's why I hate that game so much is because
yeah, the first game was really good and really scary, but it's the same fucking jumpscare
over and over and over
and...if you-if you're still playing it and still enjoying it
I think y-you're clearly faking it for views
'Cause it is such a repetitive game... like, you get the jumpscare
and, okay, if you enjoy it for like the
the gameplay or the story or whatever I think that's fine
But people...people want to see me play FNAF just so that I can get scared with the jumpscare
But I refuse to fake a fucking jumpscare because it's so fucking stupid
and the game is absolutely not scary whatsoever to me
and then I played it on YouTube
and I took the video down because people got so pissed that I wasn't scared while playing the game
So I told- I'm telling you guys, you want games, but at the same time, you don't want games
So what the fuck do you want from me?
Alright? I'm not a monkey, alright?
You can't just scream "dance" all you want
but I won't dance...I won't fuckin' dance fo' shit
I'm gonna be honest , I don't even play games that much
by myself anymore
I used to play so much fucking games
I swear to God I have like uh...more than 365 days
Spent in World of Warcraft. -Laughing-
I've got fucking 2000 hours in Modern Warfare II
-Chuckle-
This is so embarassing
I don't even know how many hours I spent playing Tibia
I wasted so much time...playing those games but I fucking loved it
It-I have some of my favourite memories playing games
So don't get me wrong
I don't know...something has changed.
I don't know if YouTube killed games for me,
but I, there are so many games that I genuinely want to play like Overwatch
But I refuse to play them because I just know I've been there before
I had the experience
I played the game, HOH- it's fun
Fuck, I don't know where I'm going with this
-Laughter-
Goddamnit
I feel like I had the experience with games before
and I don't wanna just keep- I wanna experience other things, ok?
I want to experience the things that my parents told me
When I was little instead- while I was playing video games
"Hey Pewdiepie, why don't you play an instrument?"
They called me PewDiePie when I was a kid.
"Hey why don't you read a book?"
"Hey why don't you just go out and play with your friends?" -Chuckle-
Like, all those things
I genuinely want to do now, instead of playing games.
Like, here's a list of games.
I made a list
that I...haven't played yet
but I know I will fucking love
Hyper Light Drifter
The Witcher 3
Fallout 4
Zelda Windwaker HD
Dark Souls 3
I didn't finish it.
Doom.
Overwatch.
Dishonored 2.
Samorost 3.
Stardew Valley
Owlboy
Battlefield 1
Metal Gear Solid...Okay,
alright, you get the point
and that's just last year
I really want to play these games and I know I will fucking love playing them
But at the same time, I haven't played them
And I think the main thing is time.
It-It's like I know I could spend the time playing the game
and I know I would fucking love them
and I know everything would be great
but it's like I've been down that road before
I'm talking like I'm an addict
I think I might be
I think that's why I'm talking like this
-Chuckle-
-Laughing-
I think I just realized that...I'm-I'm addicted to video games. -Laughter-
Now...I think I'm past it
I think I'm... I-
I want to experience other things in life is what I'm trying to say
and least in my spare time
and I don't know if YouTube is the thing that ruined it for me
but I ri-I don't know. I know it sounds crazy but I'd rather just read a book
I'd rather just play an instrument
all these things my parents told me to do
I am now. Doing them.
Deliberately. What the fuck?!?
What is wrong with me?
What the fuck YouTube? You ruined it for me!
You ruined games for me, YouTube. Goddamnit
I don't know, I'm 27, I'm not that old
I will-Here's the thing, I know I will always love video games.
It's just one of those things
but I think I wanna tone it down a bit
just to do other things as well.
I want to try out different things
and uh... it's just not for my channel
it's also kind of personal
I know, it's sad, it's just sad
this conver...this whole convers...this whole video is just sad
another reason I haven't been playing video games as much on the channel is that
I feel kind of limited whenever I play a game
Iike, if I have a different tone than what's going on in the game
that's really annoying... I find that very annoying
Uhh...When there is a mis-mitchmass
like it-it's a sad moment in the game and I was just going like,
HARRRRRRRR -Laugh-
that's my...my own..uh-my impression of myself by the way
I'm kind of limited to what the game is doing,
alright? I gotta follow the flow of the game.
If I'm just recording whatever other video, I have so much more freedom!
I can do whatever I want and I'm really enjoying that freedom.
What I've been doing is kinda just waiting for games that I know will make sense for me to play
and just focusing on that,
thats why I will always keep playing games on this channel
But I'd rather just space them out a little bit
I have to enjoy it, you guys have to enjoy it
uhh...
can't be too short, can't be too long
Like, I would like to play Persona 4 but that game is so fucking long
So it wouldn't work on YouTube
It has to be somewhat interesting for people to actually want to watch it and click on it
Like, there was this game, This War of Mine, which looked amazing
and I really wanted to play it but I know, like, no one would click on a game called "This War of Mine"
and I-and then that's the thing like, well, I should just play it anyway, right?
'Cause I really want to play it and so what i-if some people don't watch it
but at the same time if people don't want to watch what I put up on YouTube, then why don't I just play it by myself?
-Straining- Th-this struggle just keeps going on
I don't know. It has to be a match, it has to work,
and there's not that many games coming out that fits
and it's kind of fucking hard
and if you start a game and you never finish it
then you still gonna hear people...bitch about it for years!
"Felix, where's Alice in Wonderland, why you haven't finished that game?"
Well, it's been s-four fucking years!
Jesus Christ! I got bored!
-Dramatic Pause-
I'm sorry! I'm fucking sorry!
There are games coming out
I just need you guys be a little patient, ok?
I think that's the best way to do it
So, meanwhile, I'm just gonna have to put up these fucking comments about
-mocking voice- "Why does PewDiePie not play games?"
"I thought it was a gaming channel."
I think 2017, for me, is the year where I'm just gonna be painfully obvious
and one thing I know for sure
is people don't like honesty, even if they say they do.
-Chuckle-
and I think thats why I got in so much trouble lately
with all the drama a-and all this fucking shit
because I haven't been censoring myself as much...
as I probably should
but I've been really enjoying it personally
and I think I'm at the point...uhh...In my YouTube "CAREER"
Where I can afford...to be honest and maybe lose a couple people
and have the people that watch me appreciate at least
that I'm true to myself
In a cer- in a- in a way at least
that isn't too
dishonest.
Does this make sense to you? I don't- and I can't really tell.
I-it's kinda weird for me to make this video
But yeah, either way, if you did understand...what the fuck I was saying
Thank you
and thank you for supporting me and watching my videos
I've been loving these past weeks
Even- despite like...cut out all the drama that's happened
It's been some of my favourite weeks on YouTube ... I'm having a lot of fun.
Games are coming, just be patient, I promise
-Kiss-
I would never ignore you, I love you.
So yeah, thanks for supporting me, it means...it honestly means the world to me,
and uhh...I'll see you in the next GAMEPLAY video!
Check it out here, if you haven't checked out another video
Meanwhile, this is going on, I'm going to do the BROFIST
So see you, s-se-see you next time
this is PewDiePie, see you next Wednesday.
