Its why ive started to favor the "100 days" format over the episodic lets play, and singleplayer content over multiplayer. They just dont make it fun anymore. Not to mention, IMO, alot of modern minecraft youtubers, like Grian, Dream, Technoblade, ETC just use their SMPs as an excuse to avoid making actual content. The wait-time for a new manhunt or bedwars video is far too long. Techno uploaded more consistently when he was in COLLEGE. All he does is the occasional 3-hour stream with some overly cinematic fanart as the thumbnail, in which he does absolutely nothing but walk around with ranboo. Thats nothing. Its non-content. They make up this stupid story as they go along to keep it "Interesting" but end up killing the vibe. No one wants to play on a server with a bunch of dramatic manchildren acting like a music disk is a nuclear superweapon. Its just an excuse to milk a series and a minecraft world as much as possible to get some cheap views. If you want genuine views, subscribers, likes, followers, ETC, Make real content! Its not a hard thing to make! Edit the video, make it fun, cut the fat off, mine for something, get a new item, start a build project, Grian wasted like 70 episodes until he actually finished the exterior of his fucking house in hermitcraft! The lengths they are willing to go to built this phony suspense is unreal. Hermitcraft, Scicraft, 3rd Life, and the Dream SMP are all poor excuses for content that fail to entertain, fail to impress, and generally just fail to captivate.
