This announcement feels really weird for me.
I was first introduced to Matt and Woolie through fighterpedia. From there, I saw the link to the two best friends play Kirby's epic yarn. From those two videos I was completely hooked on their content.
From their enthusiasm when playing games, talking about stupid anime, wrestling, Saturday morning cartoons, and even Canadian cartoons ( I marked out when I heard them make a Beasties reference), they were always entertaining to watch.
As the years went by, I still watched their stuff, but my fervor in enjoying them went down. Like a friend that you just get used to having around. You sort of stop appreciating the company and enjoyment they provide. I found I really enjoyed the side channels much more, and I was always excited when I heard news of any of the members trying to do something more then just continue with the channel.
In the farewell video, Woolie sincerely thanks all of us for everything we gave them. I really hope Woolie, Matt, Patt, and Liam all recognize that what they provided us wasn't nothing. Despite what the youtube comments may say, they put work and effort into what they did. If they didn't, it wouldn't have impacted the number of people it did. For some people it legitimately made their day every day, for others, it was a constant positive that helped us truck along.
I want them all to not feel sad that this is ending, but feel proud of what they all provided us.
I will continue to watch Matt's, and Liam's channels. I hope that Pat is successful with his streams. I will be fervently awaiting the next Kirby Lore from Woolie, and hope to god one day he will continue with his tablelords series.
With that, I will end this with the link to the kotaku article that got me into the first episode of Fighterpedia.
