Thanks for reacting to this man! Apologize for the mismatched content in the Lifesteal segment. I was looking for the most popular videos from the lifesteal era, but I should have specified that more. I hope you enjoyed the video though!
I always respected your decision to not continue making Dream related content after your boat craft video. I remember at the time thinking how you could have easily just jumped on the Dream manhunt hype train but you took a risk and made content you loved (and boy did it pay off). I'm a great example of blindly following the views and not thinking about the future as our channels took very different paths. Major respect!
I think rek is one of my favorite RU-vidrs ever, because of the energy that he brings to every recording. The goofiness and passion of it all is sick a refreshing break from the overstimulation of other Minecraft RU-vid channels. Thanks, rek.
I always think it's amazing when a channel pops off and instead of one, ALL of their videos explode. That just means they always had the skill, personality and talent, but could just never reach the right audience.
This comment makes me want to waste 5000 hours of my life for +1 strength I love seeing content creators comment on other content creators within the same game love both your channels
Yo wait i for some reason remember u in the comments when i was binge watching echocraft vids cuz i thought "why not". Cool to see og viewers on a massive channel
actually, about the unlisted videos just recently i was going through lifesteal youtubers' old videos in order to understand how you guys managed to become so popular and was just a bit confused by you and a couple of others starting youtube fairly recently (
I love your videos! Been here since the start and you’ve definitely developed more overtime and just making the videos better! Thanks for the hard work and the first reaction video was great!
hearing rekrap talking about being crazy about hundreds of views made me smile, because I remember freaking out about those same numbers... now rek freaks out about the tens of millions while I freak out about the tens of thousands.
As someone who subscribed after watching your first armor trim vid I can tell you that the fact you excite to actually play the game, and just experience the new update for yourself is what drew me and probably many more to subscribe to your channel. keep it up man, and just have fun.
I love how I always see rek's content on recommended before I see it on my subscriptions, it's good to see rek's videos being pushed forward by RU-vid. Big props to you man
i feel like the whole message from rek's channel is just do what you enjoy and have passion for and the success will come with it which is super different from just sticking to trends and 'algorithm grabbing' type stuff
I think the Dream boat clutch was the first time I actually started to watch you. I always loved the LifeSteal because you were impossible to trap. You also got me into speedrunning which I am not pursuing at the moment.
My favorite videos that you post are the ones that you’ve created the idea yourself like the armor trims video (my favorite) But I just love how unique every video gets and every idea you have! keep up the great work!
It’s amazing to see how you’ve grown over the past couple of years, man… congrats! I still remember the old days when I first saw you grinding Chronos on Galaxite and wondering “Huh, this guy’s probably famous!” … and looking up your name to find nothing- I’ve truly enjoyed seeing your progression through all these videos, keep up the good work!
when you talked about this guy either getting his alt account or one of his friends to message him as parrot, i do the same thing and overthink most things
3:14 as a really small "youtuber" myself i found this kinda stuff insane too... i remember at like... midnight... one of my videos got like 1-3 views a minute and i was freaking out (i kept refreshing the page and saw the numbers go up lol) The reason why i love rekrap is because he makes the kind if videos i wanna make... i cant help but be so inspired (and a bit jealous lol) by him :D also happy new year lol
i loved this, you pointed out so many things which I would never have even begun to think about. (although I do feel like you *probably* know more about yourself then I do lmao)
Hi rekrap just wanted to say I really love your videos and keep it up your my idol I really love watching your videos thx again for making such good videos
rekrap, you are genuinely just a great guy and very entertaining. You are good at youtube because you're just plain nice and extremely likable. keep up the hard work. keep doing reaction content it was great. I could literally watch you watch ice melt for 10 hours (pointcrow's idea) and still be entertained. Have a great day!
Your optimism was gold! I started watching you for about 5-6 months and I love your content! My first video from your channel that I watched was your homage to Technoblade❤.
I remember watching the echocraft videos and going back to watch vitality smp. I remember how you were like, "I recorded a couple of videos but wasn't happy with them so I didn't publish them." How far times have come!
Dream's boat MLG video was where I first found your channel and you kept making original, entertaining, and fun to watch content. So I stayed as you blew up and became one of the best Minecraft RU-vidrs and a really good speedrunner as well. Looking forward to even more content in 2024!
No matter what I will love your content. I started out watching your dream boat clutch video and then the lifesteal SMP. Through every video I see your personality shine through and I really like the reaction/commentary/speed-running videos. (ps. I really liked the melon series)
I remember being a little kid who watched dream videos and fell in love and I remember the thumbnail of ur dream vid and liking the video and it makes me so happy to remember that.
I love this Reaction Content so much!!! Also because i learn like some things about your history (ok the vid took also a part in that, but i think also in other Videos you would come into some topics about yourself) Its just very nice ❤❤❤ Btw maybe make your webca a bit smaller
Honestly, I don't think reaction videos are all that cool, since there is no interesting editing, no opportunity to add anything engaging into the video. Additionally, it basicly steals content.
@@Keram_urt For the first point yea thats right but this is also only Reks second channel so if you want interesting editing then go watch his main channel And with stealing content its like, rek is helping the original creator to get more attention because he is promoting him with this reaction
Omg i remember watching you BEFORE the dream mlg video! I dont think i have the account on me rn, but i positive that i remember watching you b4 you blew up❤
Just want to say I remember watching a few of your nether survival videos before your channel blew up. I was kind of disappointed I couldn’t go back and finish watching the series.
Hey Rek, not sure if you’ll read this but I wanted to say something. I have been watching your videos for over 2 years now. I came from the Dream boast clutch video but decided to stick around and watch your Echocraft series. Which was such a fun series to watch and introduced me a lot of awesome content creators. Your editing style and energy was so comforting and enjoyable. You and your efforts are what brought you to where you are today. I know Lifesteal brought you lots of new fans. But you brought fans to Lifesteal. I was a fan of Lifesteal since season 1, and I can truly say that you were the reason Lifesteal became so popular, not the other way around. You had already amassed quite a large fan base, of 120k people I believe, meanwhile Lifesteal videos on other channels before you got maybe 3,000 views. Anyway, what I’m trying to say is. You are what made your channel successful. Lifesteal wasn’t a core part of what makes your channel so popular, it was just another server that you got the opportunity to show your personality and high quality videos. And now that’s it’s over, I’m looking forward to some good ol’ Rekrap content. Maybe another server like Echocraft? ‘Cause I really liked that series. But you do you, which you have been. And I know your channel will continue to grow.
You may not be getting as many veiws as you used to but your content and schedule have both improved sooooo much, hope you keep up the great work and I’ll keep on watching (also when next speed running vid)
I haven't even watched the video yet, but rek I wanted to tell u that I got into speedrunning becuz of u and now I have a PB of 1105 after learning the zero cycle and I want to thank u for that ❤.
The first video i ever watched that was yours was the one about the mycelium resistance. I didnt even know it was you until months after i was subscribed from your echocraft content.
I love your videos, and I think ever since you started making content independently it became much more engaging. Your editing is inspiring me to start a RU-vid channel myself. But something this video is getting me concerned about is, reaction videos are not engaging nor all that fun. Please, make more of your amazing videos! Thanks!
I really thought I started to watch you from your dream video but turns out I was an og because I definitely watched that hermitcraft video lol s7 was very good, nice
Great job Rek! I love to see you making more vids. I think that you should unlist the old vids and make more reaction vids. I have been a fan of your content for a long time and I hope that you keep posting new vids. Also, you inspired me to make a channel. I love your content. Thsnkd for reading this.
I think you did a good job with your first real reaction video, maybe try to pause the video when your talking though so we can hear what you want to say a bit better, over all, great video! Love your content and keep up the great work ❤❤❤
I think it would be cool to just have a video of you reacting to past events you have recorded (like reaching 1 mil subs and some unpublished Lifesteal). You might not want to show all of it, but it would be really cool to see that history.
I saw one of your videos long ago about a year ago where you said that you solved a rubix cube under a minute. I just cant believe that someone that learned so fast could actually be really good so fast. As a professional cuber myself that can clock in at 12 second to solve it, I was wondering if you could make a video on that again.
Wow I remember when I first started watching Rekrep. I was watching a lifesteal video that spoke made and I thought the server idea was really fun so I started watching other youtuber's videos on it; and when I watched rekrap's video I was like "Wow... That's really good." And I still really like them.
