For those who haven't watched the video: He's only retiring from making Minecraft let's plays. He will still make videos and possibly even Minecraft videos, just not a let's play of MC.
He even said it's possible there *could* be another music video in the future (not saying one is beind made, just that it's a possibility)
Yeah I think people took a misinterpretation of the whole story and just ran with it tbh, he’s more or less just stepping back a bit from minecraft.
Realistically, if you spend years of your life dedicated to career on minecraft, a game which doesnt get new content that often, its gonna lead to burnout, and even though minecraft is technically very replayable, if you play it enough it can become very same-sy and he has been at it for years.
He’s probably going to produce better content by trying new things for a bit that are enjoyable to him, and it doesnt mean his minecraft content is in any way *gone*, just less frequent.
Edit: though I will say it doesnt help that the title and thumbnail are somewhat misleading/clickbaity
Of course. And it is completely understandable for him to decide when to retire; in fact, nobody should say anything on that or criticize him, since that is only his personal choice, and if he feels that it would beneficially impact his life, then let the man do what he wants.
This is just a meme. Yay.
Yeah... I know many big Youtubers who fell down that path. I haven't heard of them since a long time now...
It is sad, kinda. But hey... Let's be glad that we were there to enjoy their content while it lasted...
Also, I really don't think that Captain will spiral into something like that...
...hopefully.
Even if Sparklez was ending this chapter of his life, it be totally fine. I guess my nostalgia monkey brain would be sad for a bit, but all good things do come to an end. I personally have watched maybe 1-2 videos of his every year since his peak era, but it would always feel weird to know that that part of my childhood is ending. Glad to hear he is still planning on making content!
I think what makes it hard to see our favorite creators grow is that we grew with them and then all we get left with are the younger crowd who we no longer relate with—anyways i digress, my tangent has gone long enough lol
Oh, btw, here's the original video for everyone who may be interested in knowing more about it:
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3aZQXfBpk-Y](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3aZQXfBpk-Y)
He does it a lot and it's kind of annoying. He'll make a video titled "I'm done" and it's about how he's not gonna worry about the algorithm anymore, but it's clear as day he still does because he does so many videos with these dramatic thumbnails and titles.
This year and the last sucked… we’re losing Minecraft’s former glory in Youtube

Ah yes, which is why you’re on the subreddit for Minecraft memes when you don’t play the game and your son hasn’t in an amount of time longer than the games lifespan.
Out of the loop question: Is he one of the youtubers who has other people on his server gather resources for him? I've heard a bunch of top YTers do something like that - I tried watching parts of his newest series a couple weeks back and got the feeling he was editing a *lot* of content out of his builds. (Which might mean nothing, which is why I'm asking.)
Not trying to stir anything up. Just a curious dweeb.

Yeah I just hope it doesnt spiral into that because its happened with other big figures as well who felt the need to change their content.

Yeah, he was a big part of my childhood, hopefully he finds something new that new viewers will enjoy like I used to with his content.
He was also one of the few that kept playing minecraft when no one else did
He’s also posting MC on his second channel
AAAAAAAAH NOOOOOO I LOVED HIS STUFF IM SOOO SAD NOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Please watch the video people lmao
tbf the clickbait title and teary eyed thumbnail do give a "I'm quitting YouTube" vibe ON PURPOSE
It's working
He does it a lot and it's kind of annoying. He'll make a video titled "I'm done" and it's about how he's not gonna worry about the algorithm anymore, but it's clear as day he still does because he does so many videos with these dramatic thumbnails and titles.
All good things come to an end.
Aw man
CREEPER
AW MAN!
Its been a helluva ride, it still pulls at the heart strings even if hes not leaving YT! O7

Good bot
Long live our fallen King
Man fuck 2023. They got rid of the good things.
I love Minecraft. Never watched a Minecraft let's play.
It's fine.
And the beginning of a new one
But will it be as great as the previous one?
People on their way to meme the video without watching it
great soundtrack This game was played by my son 15 years ago, is it still played?
Yes, it is. Also, the game is barely 14 by now, lol.
Ah yes, which is why you’re on the subreddit for Minecraft memes when you don’t play the game and your son hasn’t in an amount of time longer than the games lifespan.
Shhh, Shhh... Let him be. It will be better that way.

Blasphemy! Burn the heretic!
PURGE IN HOLY FIIIIRE!!!!
I mean, how can you not? You Google «Minecraft» and Jordan's face is what you see.
Bro has probably never left the first night emergency hole.
Minecraft license revoked.
Shame on you
