I know CE hates this guy for no reason but it's still a pretty big deal in internet culture. Pretty much half of the modern big content creators were inspired by him.

I mean normal people can find the reason in the topic title. That's the point of the topic title.

But I guess you're a little slow.

Youtuber who does videos. His biggest series is this one, Game Theory. Theories about various aspects of video games that started out with things like "Sonic is actually slow" and then over time turned into "Here's how this scene explains the secret plot of this game."

He also does the same thing for food, film and style. But those videos aren't as popular.

He's retired after 14 years and some British guy is taking over

He said there might be a FNAF ARG.

Bunch of FNAF fans found a resturant they thought was a part of it and called it hundreds of times between them to ask a confused resturant manager about childrens video game lore.

Mat had to publically go out and tell his fans to not call random businsess

That's the only negative one I can think of

Unless the guy is massively anti-LGBT and pissed about Mat's charity work and giving undertale to the Pope.

Harassing other Youtubers (the big, and most random one, was when he made a theory about PewDiePie and their two audiences clashed for a while), making bunk theories that caused his fan base to harass real people (such as the already mentioned ARG), and just generally not being a particularly nice person IRL.

Wasn't an insult, dude said he didn't understand what a topic was about until after reading the opening post. I just pointed out that near everyone else can tell from the topic title, that's kinda why topic titles exist.

Wasn't even over MatPat lol, it was about topic titles.

So you're wrong twice on a one sentence post. (With no punctuation and poor grammar)

Want to try for a third?

It's good when people that have a greatly successful show or channel decide to call it quits when their hearts are still in it...

I think we saw with AVGN it is better to take time off and refresh and take care of your personal life instead of pushing on with a show when your heart isn't really in it. Recent AVGNs are... fine... but the Screenwave era was awful. If James had just come back and was doing the current AVGN videos people would understand they aren't going to be as good as the originals, but they wouldn't be mad at him for the awful Screenwave era either.

I don't hate MatPat.

I just don't like him.

I watched a couple of his videos when he had topics that were relevant to my interests, but I found him to be any annoying twit.

I was curious as to why he called it quits, hoping it involved developing standards, but in any case I'm not going to miss him.

Coffeehouse crime and dire trip actually give one another shout-outs every now and then in the comment section for their videos, and there is times when both have covered the exact same case. Extremely high chance that you will definitely enjoy dire trip's videos since both of them have that chill vibe and at the same time talk about the victims just as much as the criminal.

He's cringe. He gave a copy of Undertale to the Pope and told him to play it. He also tried to clickbait about a game named Heartbound without giving it any credit titling it "IS THIS GAME THE NEXT UNDERTALE?" and only gave credit after Tobyfox got mad at him. And he was practically pissing and shitting himself because Toby was disappointed in him.
