Imagine the utter confusion I had when Dream SMP rose in popularity. I had whiplash seeing how strikingly similar Dream's mask looked to Cry's avatar.

Dream's basically a both better and shittier version of Cry. Just unlike Cry, there's a lot of people who did this song and dance before, and can tell Dream is obviously a shithead in disguise. He's worse at hiding it but better at capitalizing on his fame and compounding it. Sadly he got an obsessive fanbase of children all the same. Won't be surprised whenever (who knows how long) in the future a video like this is made of Dream.

like 90% of dream's controversies are just him doing dumb stuff, apologizing and learning from that to not repeat the nonsense, or just straight up lies (except internet likes to hate him and straight up forgets about his steps to fix things up or says "PeoPLe Don'T ChaNgE!!1"). not talking about cheating stuff, that was bad fr, but he quit speedrunning because of that so ig it's fair

@@wildmaknae_ It's moreso the character of his person. If you look at all the "dumb stuff he did" and gave halfassed apologies for, it paints a picture of the kind of person he is.

I think it's something to do with power and fame, but on a smaller level We've heard stories where stardom and renown can corrupt people, but sometimes I think that applies to RU-vid stuff too. You get these lonely nerds and weirdoes--or at best ordinary people--who are ill equipped with handling the sudden fame and attention from hundreds of people in their audience, suddenly getting handed this much power You either learn to handle it responsibly, or you abuse it and fuck up. We've had decent big RU-vidrs who dont have controversies at all, because they managed that fame well. But we've also had so much shit like this where Youtubing brings out their ugly side.

Cry isn’t pathetic because he was mentally unwell. Almost everyone is in some way. He’s pathetic because he took his pain and unleashed it on absolutely everyone around him, with no thought to the consequences. I’m not gonna lie, his struggles with motivation and depression and loneliness are really relatable to me but he took it so far without any care about anyone else. The whole situation is absolutely crushing. It hurts so much to know that if cry never existed a lot of people would be a lot better off.

During the "Cryaotic's last livestream/A descent into madness" section, I actually felt really bad for him. It just sounded like someone who had to grow up too early, then found success and a bit of happiness from it, then had everything crumble in his head. I get the feeling of realizing that "success" doesn't heal everything wrong with your mind and how that wrecks you. And then we got to the messaging-kids part and all of that went out the damn window.

I genuinely think Cry was a perfect example of unchecked mental illness and ego. He struggled to accept the way the internet was changing around him, constantly shifting between wanting to embrace or hide his own fame. He is an egomaniac with no confidence, which in itself is an incredibly self-destructive cycle. While it does not excuse his actions in any way, I believe Cry to be an incredibly mentally unsound man. The pride has no ego, the ego has no pride. Wherever he is, I hope he gets his shit together.
@Destroyer120296

Yeah it sucks because i truly believe cry could have gone down a different path and was not a "geniunely evil person". What he did is unforgivable but i dont think he was "Evil" in the sense that he was destined to be that way. He just had deeply rooted issues that put him into self destructive cycles and made him deeply desperate for validation, love and attention. If he had gotten it under control i think he would never have done what he did. Sadly he ultimately made his choices and i wish all who suffered due to what he did have recoverd.

​@Destroyer120296 Yeah, he's still human and it's a harrowing thing to realize that with enough abuse and neglect any of us could've potentially gone down a similar path. Being a good parent to your child is the most important thing you could do for their future, because if you fail, it shapes and molds not only their conscious mind and personality, but also their entire subconscious mind (and by extension, their associations, emotional reactions, behaviors, and habits) for the worse and, in a nutshell, that's how you end up with hurt people hurting other people. It's a cycle and you have the burden of responsibility to find it in yourself to break it if you find yourself there, both for your sake and those who cross your path - especially those who stick around. That's just life, we all have this responsibility, and it's tragic (in many ways) that Cry wasn't equipped to face that fully, and instead did what he felt he had to in order to escape from his shadow for another day. I hope this whole ordeal has shaken him awake to this reality at the very least. People can change and I hope he manages to find a path to actually be a better person, and face whatever demons lead him to this point. Fuck, this stuff is heavy.

The world is a vile place, the internet just makes it a lot more transparent. What trips me out as a 24 year old who has never watched cry, he honestly had a pretty good life compared to what I've been through and to find out the man was a 31 YEAR OLD talking to underage people this way and preying on their insecurities and the fact that they can relate to him instead of doing what he could to give them guidance and a positive role model disgusts me. I can't believe someone THAT OLD would be crying on livestream to literal preteens. Some people man, I hope all the people who's lives he messed up are doing alright now and I hope all the young teens out there take him as an example to deal with their emotional issues and to take responsibility. Letting your issues out on others, especially young people, does nothing but perpetuate these cycles. It's up to us to breake the habits our parents and role models left us with.

I used to be in the Steam Group and I used to watch tons of his videos on RU-vid. But I'll never forget the stream where everyone was talking shit back and forth while Cry was playing some weird eastern inspired war-boardgame and it was so fucking boring, he didn't talk and the others were basically just carrying the stream while Cry was sitting quiet. Then Russ said: "Yo Cry, chat wonders why you're being so quiet." And he just fucking launched into a rant about how he wasn't a puppet dancing for an audience, he was going to play videogames and "have a good time" and that "he was tired of everything." I don't know how, but my brain just went: "This guy doesn't seem like he appears on his let's plays" and then I just never watched him again; it's like I snapped out of a dream or something and realized that he was kind of a fucking asshole towards everyone and it just didn't vibe with me.

But they were pretending not to? Snake was the one who I noticed first then a few of the others. I stopped watching after a few cause I just couldn't shake that feeling.

I'm glad I had something good come into my life from watching his stuff (that, getting better at video editing, getting into Roll20 briefly, and a few other things), but I can't even put into words what I felt watching through this doc.

It’s a different thing when it’s someone you used to watch. So many of the ones who were exposed before were people I had no connection to. I’d stumbled across a video of theirs on occasion, but not people I watched actively. Cry was the first one that I had watched actively, only to be exposed as a problem - a groomer, an abuser, an aggressor. And that made it hurt, because his emotional “openness” in the past had inspired me, as someone with unchecked depression and struggles against a chaotic home life. Felt less alone, felt entertained by his friendship with PewDiePis, felt comfortable. Then when it comes out what he’s done, suddenly you feel alone again, even years after moving onward. Everything falls away, all that good feeling and appreciation, and you just stand there, watching someone you admired fall before your eyes.

Y'know, there's something else I noticed. I share my experience with the deep sense of betrayal and disappointment and all. But as an impressionable preteen, coming from a chaotic and LOUD house, hearing his low voice and general calm demeanor and vibe gave me a real false illusion. Because even when he clearly showed bursts of anger or mental instability, hearing all that in a relative calm tone gave me a false sense of "not seriousness", as in, "if he's saying stuff calm like that, he MUST have a grasp on his internal conflicts, emotions and, most of all, mentality and ideals. Wow, so mature". Because of that I often didn't question anything that came from him and had him in this pedestal of wisdom. If the same things were said and done by a more loud person (as I was used) perhaps I wouldn't have laid so much trust in him

I grew up in the generation where Pewds, Mark, Jack, Cry and the others were at their peak. Cry was my personal favorite, since I liked his "calm" demeanor and I like where his range and taste of games are more than the others. Hearing Cry's voice again after years in this video makes me cry but also gag. I'm around my 20's now, and I still couldn't forget how harrowing it is to see both the rise and fall of your favorite youtuber. As much as I loved Cry (and I honestly and genuinely still weep for him) for the solace and peace he gave me as a teen through my darkest times like many others did, I hope he goes through hell for his actions. What he did wasn't okay and will never be okay. Using mental illnesses can not be an excuse for his shitty actions. I honestly feel for his shitty upbringing cause I also had a shitty upbringing myself as well as two mental illnesses, but I can never vouch for using that excuse to ruin both his and other people's lives. He honestly could have gone down a more brighter and peaceful path if he had just sat and took a hiatus to face himself in the mirror to fix that one, broken inner child. He could have gone to therapy. He could have taken a step back and take a breath and excuse himself so he'll be and feel better. But no. I hope he goes through hell. As much as I have looked up on him and he became my comfort youtuber I could never stand by him. I genuinely hope he's out there getting his shit together, taking in the consequences of his actions, and be so damn sorry. also to those like me who missed Cry but couldn't face his vids ever again and had the itch of it, I swear ManlyBadasshero is such an amazing youtuber. I found out about him right after this whole fiasco (who honestly became my saving grace) and he has the same vibe as Cry's LP's. He's now one of my favorites and he's pretty funny and really, really chill and focuses more on a myriad of indie horror games, which is pretty cool c:

I think most people wouldn't actually understand emotional cheating. I don't think I do either. Like if everyone's being honest, chances are we're not in a relationship with someone who is our idea of peak physical attractiveness, so the urge to do physical cheating is easy to understand. Falling in love with someone else, being honest enough with yourself to realise that but not honest enough to tell your current partner "I don't love you anymore"? That's hard to picture for yourself.

He did some foul, disgusting things and is obviously a shitty person that deserves the negative connotations that come with mentioning him nowadays.

But there was no balance for him to strike, so he built an unstable sphere around him and dove into deeper darker corners to escape and/or find purpose. There's no excusing his actions. But unlike most youtubers turned pedo/abuser, Cry genuinly didnt mean any pedo/abuse or related actions to happen, nor was it his nature to end up where he ended up. Cry is not a bad meaning person. But intention dosnt change anything about the actions one commits. And Cry messed up.

She chose to date someone else, yet it comes off like he felt like he owned her, and she was already his just because he had a crush. That doesn't obligate her to like him back or date him, even if she flirted with him or something. Like I've been there, thinking you might become a thing with someone and they start dating someone else especially someone you're close with, it sucks and it hurts. But she was free to pick whoever she wanted to date. You don't get to call dibs on a person or anything.

Cry went from being someone I could sympathize with to a predator. I disagree that what made him a failure was his inability to do anything with the opportunities he had for success on the internet. I've been there. So depressed that literally nothing could give me enough satisfaction or dopamine to motivate me. A therapist once asked me what kind of life would make me happy if I could do literally anything. I couldn't come up with a single thing. Mental health problems on that level can seriously incapacitate you. HOWEVER, that doesn't excuse his abusive behavior in any way. Especially considering he seemed perfectly aware that what he was doing was wrong and was intentionally hiding it. Severe, untreated (and sometimes even with treatment) depression can make it impossible to care for yourself and be successful in your life and career. It doesn't make it impossible not to prey on others.

It focused more on how to manage my symptoms instead of trying to cure the depression and anxiety. I had always thought that approaching it as a chronic illness instead of as something I could fix would be too much like giving up. Instead, the coping mechanism managed to get me enough peace to actually start making progress. I went from the worst I had ever been to almost normal function for the first time in my life in my late 20s. I'm in my early 30s, now, and I'm excited about my life. I didn't know it was possible to feel like this, and now I know why life always seemed so much easier for "normal" people 😅 TLDR: Keep trying different approaches if you have persistent mental illness. You can be in unsuccessful treatment for decades and finally find something that works for you.

It's his biggest insecurity, especially since his failures are all self imposed. His mind and low self image will haunt and punish him more than anyone ever could. His life is also miserable as he allows himself to be walked all over by others in his life. Plus authorities were contacted so he's probably been living in paranoia.

It's so depressing that those good memories I had of watching his videos are just broken now... such a messed up and unstable guy.

Coincidentally, by then I was very closely involved in the Smash Bros Melee community. It made up most of my friend group. June 20th, Cry was outted. June 30th, countless members of the smash community were outted. Felt like my past and present all shattered at once. I still have a Cry plushie that I used to cuddle with tucked away in my closet, gathering dust. Not sure why I keep it. I refuse to clean it. Just feels symbolic

@AmvReverdedStudios 7 месяцев назад
As much as I kind of hate to say it. The fact it's been as long as it has and no one has said anything in regards to Cry or the situations. He may have "opted out" as they say. He was 31, still living at home, mental health issues, no real friends, no type of healthy schedule what so ever, deep emotional problems. Then he loses the one thing he had, his online life and persona. Essentially being erased off the internet from Twitch, RU-vid, etc. The way he had already been declining mentally and then everything exploding in his face. I wouldn't be surprised if it got to him in the end. I used to watch HELLA cry growing up. His collabs with Pewds were my favorites. I remember so many nights as a teenager going to bed with his let's plays on. He was soothing in a chaotic household I was growing up in. I fell off keeping up with everyone for years after I got out of highschool. One day I thought "I wonder what been going on with these people I used to watch" Everyone like Pewds, Ken, Marikplier, etc were all doing good, having families, getting big on youtube, but I couldn't find anything on Cry and I noticed everyone stopped collabing with him years prior. So I went to his channel and just got side swiped with confusion. Hearing the last 2 videos he had posted, then reading all the comments below, slowly piecing things together, looking up things on Twitter, RU-vid, sort of deepdiving, and my heart sank. One of the youtuber's I found to be most relatable, soothing, funny, and enjoyable to watch turned out to be someone I needed to stay FAR the F away from. I am currently 29 and the thought of someone my current age going after me when I was 15, 16, 17 using their online persona and fandom to gain traction on me freaks me out. I feel so bad for the victims he used, cheated on, lied to, and the friendships he utterly didn't seem to give a ish about at the end of the day. He destroyed all his friendships through lies, and infidelity. There is a part of me that considers with his background, child hood, mental health. That MAYBE there was a part of him at the time that really didn't see what he was doing was wrong, or that he couldn't comprehend the situation he was participating in, but eventually he did, and I think once he realized all of the bad things that happened to him in his youtube career were because of him. There is a part of me wondering if he could even cope with it. Like he tried to continue his streaming and posting on youtube like things weren't as bad as they actually were, or like he REALLY thought his actions weren't that bad cause he never actually got physical with anyone, or whatever the case may be. Him realizing "Oh sh-t it really IS this bad...there are a LOT of people suddenly exposing a bunch of things I said to them... people are connecting dots... people are asking too many questions that I don't know how to answer, if I am honest everyone will hate me anyway, but they seem to already hate me, so whats the point?" I think the pressure of owning up to everyone, everything he has done over the years was just too much. Which is why he never ended up posting a follow up video, or even stream, or anything. He couldn't face ALL the consequences and cries for answers on some serious allegations at once. If he was potentially investigated by the FBI for messing around with minors or what not, that could be another reason we never got an update since. Depending how legit any of it actually was. But yeah regardless... It is really sad to see how 1 person SO many people grew up with and looked up too had destroyed so many lives and affected so many people in ways I am sure still occasionally affect them.

back then it's always Pewds, Cry and Ken. Then Mark and Jack also started to rise.

But Ken still occasionally showed up on Pewds's vids meanwhile Cry seemed distant. Until one time when Pewds was streaming, a guy in chat asked "Why didn't you play with Cry anymore" and he replied "I just didn't hang out with him anymore, some things are better left unmentioned." In which i thought at the time, friendships kinda drift apart over time. until a week later, theres a video about Cry that just blew up. (Oh and this is also sometime around the Mini Ladd drama too)

I think a main reason why so many successful RU-vidrs are eventually called out for interacting with minors is the combination of getting rich young and running out of excitement. When you give a kid millions of dollars, they're bound to do dumb shit, and once they're out of dumb shit to do you'll seek to do things normal soecity wouldn't want you to do, like have sex with a minor, do hard drugs, pay for snuff content etc. It's actually a very very common pattern amongst rich people to suddenly grow very dark tendencies after a while. Once you've obtained what you want in life it might be human nature to be drawn towards things you know you shouldn't have or things you know you shouldn't do. It's a very interesting psychological topic that I would want to learn more about in the future.
@VErisot

Then why is it majority men doing it though? if its human nature you would see all the female makeup gurus and vloggers be as predatory (a lot of them turn out to be shitty people but not grooming minors). Sure there are some female youtubers that have been predatory (colleen balinger for example) but it's just sooooo much more common for male youtubers. I don't think fame or power turns anyone bad it just allows them to do act out their deep desires, it might take some time for them to build up the confidence to do the heinous shit they want to so that's why their behavior start showing after some time. Maybe males are statistically more prone to predatory desires due to socialization or something... idk.

I have screenshots from a search I did at some point after this all went down. I knew Florida was open about bookings compared to other states. I found a mugshot of someone who matched the description the Crew hinted at over the years. Blond hair, bigger guy, beard. The charge was "Enticing a child for indecent purposes". Ryan Daniel Terry, booked on 2/4/2021. I never got any further update on that case, but it was enough closure for me, thinking Snake and the victims really did contact an agency, that there was justice of some kind. It just... came out of nowhere, yet it was so obvious. Hard to describe that revelation at the time, after being a viewer for about a decade.

It feels like it's been a decade since his breakdown and shit hit the fan, but it's only been a couple years cuz of all the wild stuff that happened over the last few years. But yeah, I used to watch him when I was a young teenager, and he seemed so wholesome. When I found out he was pan, it was so cool having someone I looked up to be the same as me, and then he turned out to be a creep. I guess I was lucky that I wasn't the type to DM creators or try to get involved, or I could have been one of his victims.

I remember watching his Cat Lady playthrough and how... _nice and supportive_ he was of the main character, stopping occasionally to talk through heavy topics like self harm, su*cide, depression and _emotionally abusive relationships_ with such tact and care. But I guess that just goes to show that you can have someone who understands or even just parrots good and helpful sentiments but is still themselves a bad and harmful person. Everything he did to his victims was a complete betrayal of what he led his community to believe. Given how easy it was for him to do all that while putting on a supportive or sympathetic face for his audience, I don't think that he could ever or should ever be trusted to come back. (I edited the last line to say "I don't think" instead of "I don't know" because I realised from replies that it sounds almost like I think Cry should come back. To be clear: I do not want him back. I think that due to the constant pity parties he threw for himself and the young people he emotionally sexually abused he should stay logged off forever.)

Most youtubers used their fans as a shield to get away from responsibility even if that genuinely hurt people. I also like how his audience matures with him, like I never seen someone complaining about a Pewdiepie fan. Speaking of his fans being mature, there was this one viral video from Jubilee, his community is the only audience that sympathize for a single mother. Other RU-vidrs' community don't take single mothers kindly from my experience, so they usually ignore her existence and chose a different person to sympathize with even if he lied about some charity. He also chose his lover over his audience and wasn't scared to show her face. Some youtubers don't usually show their lover because it really pressed the audience, possibly causing heated debates from each side. Years ago, I think if was around 2011? I remember Pewd's fans protested how he "changed" and so they tried to blame everything on Marzia. Of course, he defended her a lot. Some male RU-vidrs are willing to disrespect and throw away their SO for fans that never show their face just coz they protest that her presence ruined the content.

I even made a Tumblr account simply because I knew Cry had one. When I think back on it, my fangirling hit me very hard and made up a large chunk of my middle school years. A lot of the horror games I love now are due to watching his channel. Unfortunately, I feel like many of those games have been tainted for me as I can no longer stand to think of the connections to him. At this point, I don't even watch Let's Players because I just assume they will do something stupid and have instead started to stream myself so that I can experience games without a middle man. I hope wherever Cry is these days, he’s haunted by the consequences of his own self-destructive actions.

This was such a hard thing to watch happen in real time, especially given WHEN it happened. 2020 was rough for everyone for obvious reasons, but for me I lost my best friend in February-who had incidentally introduced me to Cry-then my cat that I’d had since I was a child in May on the anniversary of my mom’s death. I tried turning to a presence that had been calming for me in the past and found this whole shitshow going down. Obviously my experience was relatively insignificant, but given everything else it felt like yet another personal catastrophe in an extremely short period

Cry did some terrible, inexcusable things. But, I can’t help but feel empathy for the other aspects of his downfall. Aside from the degenerate grooming/cheating/whatever else, I think a lot of us can relate to feeling stagnant in life. To be a popular content creator with these issues must be a nightmare. I often think about how I would be as a content creator and I’m sure it would be similar to Cry. I’d be inconsistent and unmotivated, unable to commit to the content creation even as a hobby. If I were to become popular, I’d feel horrible for disappointing everyone and spiral. Popularity comes at a steep, steep price and almost nobody is creating content with a goal of staying obscure and not getting paid. If your popularity declines (for whatever reason), so does your mental state - this is true even for small creators with smaller audiences. It just sucks that we have to watch people destroy themselves… that we have to suffer along with everyone else affected in a downfall like this. Of course, like I said, the grooming he did was just unforgivable and inexcusable. But we watched Cry’s downfall in real time. Having felt the same feelings he was honest and real about is what made him so likable… and also what made it so upsetting when he fell.

I would listen to his videos on readings and watch his horror games which a few in particular, I can't imagine watching anyone else and haven't watched since Cry's situation release. But now hearing this.. is just disappointing. I'm 24 now. I still have favorited videos of animations of Cry and Pewdiepie on this account. To see that go into a man, that's inconsolable on a stream? It was like I watched him fall apart and it was on him. It was completely on him. I don't know how to feel. I feel heartbroken for both the victims and the potential lost here. Pewdiepie is literally living his dream life in Japan now with his family, a child of his own. I don't know what Cry is doing but it's crazy how we meet people, grow relationships and then our paths dramatically change. I hope the victims can seek and secure peace. I hope Cry can come to the understanding of his actions and act upon it to fix what he's broken, by at least preventing it in the future. That's all I can hope for. I would have loved to see Cry on the big platform, laughing and having such deep bonds that pull out these wonderful inside jokes for others to hear, but it completely got ruined by very preventable actions done by Cry.

I don't have anything against you liking his content before, I'm just surprised how so many people didn't see through him.

​@@jasonbliss6030 I'm pretty sure cry's voice sounded so low just because he never seemed to be speaking in normal volume, while when one is overwhelmed with emotions, they speak louder and thus more high pitched. Additionally, he could have some sort of disorder that would cause manic episodes, making his mannerisms and voice unpredictable at times, that doesn't mean it's disingenuous. Imho, he was a desperate man trying to be happy but not knowing how, actively chasing the quick hits of dopamine rather than steadily improving his life. Unfortunately for everyone involved, he dragged people with him. (Side note just fyi: trans women don't get a higher voice due to Estrogen, they go through voice training to learn how to reach higher notes. It's also why you can see some cis men pull off really good girl's voices, it's all training, unlike trans men whose voice deepens on Testosterone. Fun fact of the day I suppose?)

@@yotashiprokou7283 Youre right, it only stops the voice from getting deeper so it would have to be used from an early age to prevent a lower pitch, good catch. I still believe he sounds disingenuous personally. I've been wrong before, but his actions make me feel as though I was right this time. We all perceive differently, I just can't hear genuine emotion. It feels too controlled and inconsistent to me. Cheers though stranger

The first red flag was his voice sounding like Mr. Burns.

I haven't watched many analysis or deep dive RU-vidrs as of late, but I must say your video is top quality. The editing, the concise and accurate script, the honest yet factual commentary, even the tone and inflection of your voice. I'll have to watch more of your videos, because even though it was about a shit person, it was actually a pleasant experience.
