tl;dr: Everything changes but change itself.

Okay so I have been playing xbox for a while now, since MW2 came out, and I followed the youtube scene of all the big names. But now I barely recognise anyone famous on youtube for gaming and it seems to be that all the big clans are full of little kids now. It's not just because I am older that they seem younger but I don't remember any of them being squeakers, but that's all you hear now! Just recently Small Beans and Zerkaa quit, and I struggle to find any original players who inspired me that still enjoy xbox, as most have just changed their channel into vlogs or sold them. I guess that's just how the world works and everything ends :/

Small beans leaving video:



I don't know why I wrote this I guess I just wanted to see of others were feeling the same, or if it's just my time to move on, because gaming is just a hobby and you won't be doing it forever.. I could go on and talk about how Call of duty isn't the same and the community etc but I don't think you guys want to hear that.

Thanks for reading guys

Edit: The montages I used to see were all made for fun by likable people with cool personalities, these days it's just kids trying their hardest to get clips to feed the ever demanding youtube community, nobody has fun anymore, and the only reason it's still here is because of habit. That's my opinion anyway :/

You're welcome!! I guess you don't really see many montages these days where the players have fun making them, seeing as it's all done for money/subscribers

I have never been into snipe videos or clans, if I do watch CoD video's it'll be from Woddysgamertag, Hutch or OpTic Nade/Scumpi.

However it's sad to see one of the 'classics' go.

Agreed!! My friends that I play with now would rather practice for their next match then maybe play a fun private match, it's a sad truth

There are still some "oldschool" gamers, which are really enjoyable to watch and get inspiration from.

- Hutch

- SeaNanners

- MrSark

- Tejbz

But you are definitely right, isn't like it used to be..
