I love how everyone is doingthis style of video now but niko is the only one who actually has a meaningful message that is interesting and not just a copy of what everyone has already heard a bunch of times
its a very therapeutic style of video to be fair. i highly recommend it! even if you don't have the most amazing insights into life its still your experience which holds some value.
niko, in the current state of youtube, social media and just the internet right now, thank you for these videos. a change from the fast pace, heavy edited videos with obnoxious sound effects and overuses music. i love your videos dude and they've gotten me through so much, thank you again. :)
I usually don't comment on videos, but man I've been watching this videos from the first one and what you post is just amazing !! I'm always thrilled when I see you posted a new video ! Thanks for the joy you bring me mate
Man this came at the right time. Been feeling depressed these past days especially today and I felt like I just needed someone or something to connect with, and this video did just that.
These videos are so therapeutic. Just having a person playing an old version of minecraft, unedited while giving advice or telling relatable stories feels so calming amongst the noise of nearly everything else on the internet.
this has nothing to do with the theme of the video, but I just wanted to say that the fact that your channel sparked a new trend of people just making these chill videos makes me really happy, idk if you know about them, probably yes, but after I started watching your videos, 3 or 4 more channels like yours appeared in my homepage, and some may think that they're unoriginal or they're just copying trying to get sucess or whatever, but idk man, I haven't gelt this much joy watching a minecraft video since 2013 or 14, I think that's what we really needed on youtube rn, my homepage was always filled with political stuff and other nonsense, but these chill commentary videos and also the people that play on beta minecraft really made me relax while watching a video, and idk, just have fun and stuff, but anyways, thanks for making these videos
I had a bad day today. I woke up and felt super depressed (first time in months). I went back to bed and woke up at 8 pm. Thank you for making this it made me feel much better and I felt comforted. Thank you niko.
Honestly lately most of my bad days are direct and clear as to what's causing them. Almost entirely from a home improvement project my dad's been working on, which is splitting a room in two so my brother has his own room. He worked on that this _entire_ last weekend, from Friday to Monday. I struggled, a lot, and couldn't rely on my mom to help personally since she was trying to keep the house clean. But I do think theres one good thing that's come out of it. Its the fact that when my dad's at work, when he _isn't_ working on it, I feel so...calm? Somehow, that stress has mostly erased my stress and general dislike of college. And even when its hard work, i feel so much more confident than when i had/have to deal with the construction work. The bad days are probably not gonna be looked back on with much joy, but they do give you a different frame of reference thats more grateful for the days that are mundane or even slightly irritating.
hey, i know it might not be helping you that much but i just wanna tell you that this is going to pass and that you are going to be fine again!! keep going
Bro you I hope your yt blows up bc what you talk about is so real. In the current state of social media where being genuine is rare, this channel is so refreshing. started watching when I was recommended your popular video on relationships and have been watching every vid ever since.
Your videos are so cathartic to me. I’ve been struggling a lot recently with my mental health and when I watch your videos I feel a sense of ease that I don’t feel with much else at the moment. So thank you for being so down to earth, you’re doing a great thing for both myself and a lot of other people who feel the way I do
I just thought sometimes were scared to have a bad day or negative emotions but that can make those days appear worse than it really is for the sheer fact that we dont want to have a bad day lol
I don't usually comment on videos, and you'll probably not see this, but. Thank you, truly. Your video really helped me. I've been having rough times recently, and this was really nice to watch
i actually have a heavy headache right now, and i’ve just stumbled upon this gem of a video. no overstimulation, no upbeat music, no fast paced edits, just a person playing Minecraft and being real about his experiences. thank you, Niko, for not only preventing my headache from getting worse, but also helping me learn new things about life every time you upload.
I was having a bad day today, infact currently my week is not the best. I was going through youtube and seeing you came up in my recommended, it was like you were speaking to me, Thanks niko. Wishing you the best of luck.
I swear man you don't miss with the videos, it's like having a safe space to just let loose and feel comfortable. Keep up the videos, glad to see your channel is growing
super relatable experience! putting out a message like this really helps people feel less alone and i cant wait to see more videos from you in the future!
I've been trying to find RU-vid videos for months. I was scrolling through videos and found one of yours. It was entertaining and amazing. Seriously. Thanks for this niko! Your videos make me smile, Thanks bro
you always upload these in the right moment, i've been commenting on a few of these, i finally took the decision to break it off a month ago, im talking with someone and ive been going through some bad days but, it does get better and sometimes days like that just happen, it's nice to see such a human content creator go through relatable things
thanks you so much niko. your other video, about relationships really helped. entering high school and had just been broken by someone i loved a lot. you helped me through it. thank you. i find myself having bad days now that i know she isnt in my life anymore, and this helped a lot. keep at it
Hi Niko, i've watched all of your video's, and they have been really helpfull. I'm going trough a period of my life that i wouldn't call "joyfull", but these video's have helped me a lot. So, thank you for starting this channel!
hey man I liked your content of having deep talks and it's very soothing while i'm busy doing my school work and I hope to see more video's from you. yeah just wanted to say keep it up since it makes me relaxed while having no one in the house with me and makes me feel less lonely :]
Man, I love you'r videos, they might not make me laugh at times but its always conforting, I love you man and I can confently say that we all love and care for you. 💟
hey niko, your style of videos literally saved me, like i only open youtube just for your videos, especially when something bad that happened to me, and you instantly fix my mood, don't stop the amazing work. love you man
I'm not even kidding right now, I needed this today. I have a friend who's a josh too.He'll go quite, won't even say hi some days. That's fine for sure. But unfortunately, he seems to specifically treat me like shit on these days. Cussing, yelling, just generally treating me like shit. You cannot know how much these videos mean to us, your an awesome person for making these.
I love this so much. Would love if you talked about breakups and stuff like that again, I’m sure people would find that super helpful. Thanks for being you
Came three months late and everything but not only are some of these commentaries kind of relatable but he’s even legit playing Minecraft like it’s not even a pre-recorded video legit Minecraft gameplay during a commentary.
i loved the content from the first sight i love the vibe i love the style of 2012-2015 kinda videos i love everything i would love to see more of you playing peaceful minecraft and talking
I straight up made a Minecraft rant style video and saw a video talking about your channel. I went to watch your channel and instantly enjoyed this style keep going man!
I wish this video came at an earlier time, I'm having a similar experience except I just completely closed myself off of certain people in my life that didn't deserve it. Thank you for sharing.
Hey, first I want to echo everyone else saying how this makes me feel comforted in a really special way. I really relate to the roommate you described in the video, sometimes I just can't keep up the goofiness anymore and crash for a week or two. I also would like to see that 'off' video of yours, maybe you could upload it unlisted and put a link in the description?
I really do appreciate your style of videos & just the way you are in them, they've got a nice sense of flow to them, & even if they're a deep or serious topic I like that you can still crack a bit of a joke between your points & it doesn't feel forced or even cringe you could say! But also I do like the look of the entrance to your house so far btw!!
I could relate to josh so much. You can be the most optimistic person in your head. But if you hear the most unhinged stuff people say behind you. I feel like i wanna shutdown.
Eu gosto muito dos seus vídeos, eles são meio que terapêuticos e gosto de escutar seus pensamentos em certo assunto, continue por favor❤ -finalmente agora uma parte do telhado está feita 🙏
These sorts of videos are what got me into youtube all the way back in 2014. Seeing someone just ramble on and on about life and their personal experiences while playing a silly game, whether it is building a badass house in minecraft, or shooting things in Overwatch or Counter-strike, it all made YT that much better of an escape. I used to go to youtube to wind down, to have something relaxing to listen to while I went about my business. But nowadays it's the opposite. Most forms of content are so fast, bloated and attention grabby that it just overloads my brain even more and doesn't give me anything intelligent to think about. Thank you for bringing back what made RU-vid RU-vid - the ability of the single person to express themselves unprofessionally to a wide audience of other folks all throughout the world
I somehow can relate, as an autistic person with depression. I just wake up after 7 hours of sleep and feel like everything is shit, but actually it's getting better? But I don't feel like that tho. So I just have a bad day, and then the next one is bad too. And maybe another one is a good day, sometimes happens... It feels good to know that other people feel the same sometimes. I'm still having trouble to accept that, but videos like this help a lot.
i mean first of all thank u for doing this like i love ur vids but honestly even if ik ur right i still blame myself when i wake up feeling bad cuz i have no real reason to be like that and i start feeling bad for closing myself off even if i shouldnt
niko's house in minecraft is like life, it starts not so well but it has to be ugly in order for it to be pretty and big, so this journey that niko is going through is also the journey the house is going through. idk if this made any sense since english isn't my 1st or 2nd language, but I hope someone got the idea
