1:22 I can totally imagine kids inheriting their parent's YT channels like it's some kind of family business. In twenty years there'll be a video essay about "The rise of the RU-vid nepo babies"
There are channels that have been around long enough where the parents have kids in their late teens now, most of the time the kids have very little to do with the channel.
15 years?? Wow, I've been on this ride for roughly 13/14 of them, crazy how time flies. I'll never forget back in high school going over to my buddies house in 2010/2011ish and noticed he had on a JonTron video. After explaining normal boots to me, he then immediately showed me a PBG video, most likely a G-Files. I was hooked ever since. Thanks for the amazing content throughout the years PBG, and always finding a way to make me laugh and put a smile on my face!
I still remember my first PBG video, I know it was a top 10 list from Zelda Month. When your intro was I believe a normal boots intro, your black hyperspace background with your pixelated self pumping into your chest 😂. Thanks for all the good times when I was a child man. You really got me through some rough times. Now I'm basically an adult and I'm still watching you, it's crazy. Edit: looked back at the channel it was too 10 Zelda dungeon themes.
MySims Kingdom is still one of my favorite games to this day and had a huge impact on my childhood! Glad to have been with you on your RU-vid journey for a while :D
When I got the notification I had a mini heart attack for a split second as I thought this was gonna be another video about one of my favorite RU-vidrs retiring. Thank god that is *not* the case and it's insane that this channel has been going on for 15 years now. I can't really recall when I started watching the PBG channel but one of the first videos I saw must have been a Zelda Hacking video. However I will say that Austin has been a very prominent part of my childhood and still remains one of my all time favorite RU-vid channels on the whole platform. That's much this channel means to me. Happy 15th anniversary!!
Holy shit 15 years?! I remember one of my friends showing me your Harvest Moon Animal Parade video and seeing the giraffe edit you did with the Xs over its eyes was peak humor to me. Now here I am 10ish years late, thats crazy. Happy 15 years Peebs!
Happy anniversary Austin! And congrats on the glorious butter child ✨️🎊 You made manys childhoods, teen years & early adult years etc Been watching you since my sister showed me your channel back into 2017 or 16, good times 🎉💖
Oh God, I dunno how many times I've seen your hey you Pikachu video, but I've watched it a ton of times because it was my first PBG video. The one video that hooked me on your channel and got me following your content since about 2012-2013ish. I don't remember when I subscribed originally, but it was shortly before the hacking got video. (I remember that video in particular because a coworker and I were referencing it throughout the workday and it was annoying our manager. Lol.)
Man, am a bit late to this video, but I've been a fan of you for almost 11 years by now. If I remember correctly the first video I watched from you was the short review you did for Animal Crossing New Leaf. It convinced me to buy the game. Through a forum of this game I ended up meeting my now husband. In one of our first conversations he mentioned how excited he was for November because one of his favourite youtubers always does a Zelda Month during that month, so I quickly found out he's a PBG fan too. You indirectly brought the two of us together, so if you'll ever read this: Thank you so much for that! And take care.
You were the first person I ever subscribed to on RU-vid almost ten years ago, and I’m so thankful you’re still here and making amazing content. You led me down the path to discovering other amazing creators that have changed my life for the better. Here’s to what’s hopefully another fifteen amazing years!
15 years?! Thats actually crazy to me, since I remember watching you in like 2012 as a kid. I remember coming home from school after having a shit day and watching your videos. My favorites were the Put-Put videos along with the Zelda ones. To be honest I doubt without your videos id still be interested in video games. I don't watch your videos as much anymore, but I do watch whatever the latest videos you release are (I love the fast food toy videos!) and of course go back and watch some classics! Happy 15yrs on RU-vid Peebs! And thank you for making my childhood and posting amazing content!
Crazy to think it's been so long. I remember watching your videos for what, maybe ten years now? First thing of yours I ever watched was your Skyward Sword playthrough. I don't think you'd be very upset if I told you I found it pretty terrible, but I found you again through some Zelda Month videos and your Minecraft Hardcore series. What a journey it's been.
I can't believe I've been watching pbg for over a decade. It's crazy to think that I grew up watching this stuff, considering he's not much older than me. Weird. Congrats tho peebs!
i’ve been watching your videos for 10 years now and i just wanna say thank you for all the great content and fun memories!! i even met one of my best friends because we bonded over both watching your videos lol congrats on 15 years!! 🎉🎉
PBG, been watching you since i was a little kid, im 21 now, and have one thing to say, im kinda sad there was no CDI Zelda games in the video, i feel like we would all love to see some suffering. either way, you are the first person, along with the rest of the normal boots crew, that introduced me to youtube. i can remember telling my friends at school about your videos and introduced my classmates over the years to your videos. I appreciate your content, not to get over bearing, but you raised me in a way too, needed some genuine humor growing up for sure. Congrats to a whole 15 years brother, thank you. -Nino
@@Peebs No worries man! I was just yankin your chain lol i’ve failed to emulate the CDI more than i wish to admit. Best of luck with the new kiddo and i’ll always be here for new stuff!
I discovered you through MatPat actually, so the first video of yours I watched was the worst Zelda items video you did with him 8 years ago, back when it first came out. From then I was hooked. I went and watched pretty much your entire backlog of videos, even back to the stuff that's uploaded on the Austin Hargrave channel and the Hardcore videos on the gameplay channel. It's insane to see how much you've grown while still capturing the same essence of what made your videos great back then. Glad to see you're still going as strong as you have been all this time, congrats on 15 years dude.
I was late to the game, but I still remember my first PBG video well! It was the Skyward Sword hacking video-I kept on seeing that thumbnail with that giant weird face Groose is making in my recommended, just haunting me for weeks on end, and I finally caved and clicked it. Did not regret it for a moment!
The first peebs video I watched was when I searched up “Mario ball toy”. 2 and a half years ago I can proudly say I’m still here and have seen almost all peebs and pbg vids. Congrats 🎉🎉🎉
15 years is a long time! I'm so glad you're still making content, Peebs. You may not upload as often as other youtubers, but you never miss with the quality. You always make me laugh and smile, and I'll forever be grateful for that.
Congrats on 15 years! It's so crazy to think that I've been watching you for at least 10 years, I basically grew up with your channel, and you're a father now! I still remember coming home from school to watch every Zelda month video, now I'm coming home from uni to watch every toy unboxing video
peebs i’ve been watching you for going on 11 years now since 2013. i always look forward to your videos i have notifications turned on and everything. you’ve become one of my comfort channels throughout the years and i love all your content and i cannot wait to see what you’ll do in the future. i love you austin
Damn, 15 years and I still quote your old videos on a regular basis. I can't even hear the word "Carrot" without thinking of the Carrots and Peas sponsorship. Also so so much more, mostly the Harvest Moon videos. Suffice to say, you've impacted my life for the better. Thank you ❤
15 years later and PBG is still around making the amazing content he does. I’ll never forget the day I first saw his Mario and Zelda hacking videos, those were good times.
Hey Peebs! I think I’ve been watching you for possibly 5 or so years at this point- the first video that I saw was your sonic the hedgehog hacking and I thought it was the funniest thing ever. Thanks for being such an important part in my childhood and for continuing to do so. 🥳
Congrats on 15 years! I'm sure many of those views on the Hey You Pikachu video were from me. xD It's my favorite PBG video, and I have watched it MANY times. Keep up the great work! :D
Legit my very first PBG video was the Ocarina of Time hacking, after it was featured on Zelda Universe! I then watched more and haven’t stopped. My friend and I binged the hacking videos on New Years Eve one year, and to this day we will quote the Hey You Pikachu and Ocarina hacking video. Core memories!
My first pbg video was the oblivion daedric artifact collection series. It was only a year old at the time. Thank you for all the happiness and laughs you brought me over the years.
Still thank you pbg for the classic videos of top 10’s, hardcore minecraft, and funny videos 13 years ago now. I wouldn’t be able to find what I was looking for on youtube back when I was fresh high school searching for games on youtube, you’ve helped me alot through introducing minecraft, many culture of games especially what you call life simulation games and my english speaking skills. Long live PBG 2008 - 2023
Peebs, me and my sister have been watching you since your Breath of the Wild hacking video. Thank you for continuing to make us laugh throughout the years! 😊🙏
Man, 15 years on RU-vid, and you're still going?! Mad respect for you. The fact that you're still willing to do this is actually really impressive. I will genuinely be shocked if you reach your 20th anniversary on RU-vid. Wish you the best of luck, and I'll still be watching your content.
