I can't tell if it aged badly or really well. Reckful talking about how other streamers are more toxic than he was then cutting to Josh casually admitting to be a rapist is kind of a perfect moment
Judging by the vote ratio people might think this video is controversial. But Byron wanted us to see all sides of him. If you're going to better understand his situation and people like him you need to see everything and put your best effort forward in trying to understand all of it. We don't know how much he meant in this manic phase/breakdown, but even if he meant all of it doesn't mean he's a bad guy. It's irresponsible to only show the side of him that you think people should see, there's good and bad. That's humanity.
xqc farmed drama to being a multimillionaire and reckful acted in the exact same manner here. It also allows you to be honest and brutal and it becomes just another typical day in the office since people get used to you reacting that way. More intense people react like that too, as well as people sick of pretend and fake shit. I think kids got way too triggered on this video because they're all this "nice guy" stuff. He farmed drama for excitement, was doing what xqc does too; who is another streamer that often gets real and mean, and it's fun and exciting for everyone. Rip. Those edgy niceguy teens were really nesting their shit here. Shows how much they were triggered by his success. He had millions. The realest is usually the most hurt, wish he could've been saved or he saved himself. Just shit...
I'm 35 and I used to crush kids in Quake 1 and Unreal Tournament 20 years ago. Actually it was 19 years ago since Unreal was released in 1999. Those were the good old days. The sweet memories of all my hard earned victories will never fade away. One day I will be great agian and become the greatest FPS'er. BOOM HEADSHOT
remember the cool ball mode to score a goal on unreal tourament ? pass to your team mates or shoot it in yourself, i think 03 or 04 something like that. Man good times :D
Having watched streams every day since 2011 as one of my primary forms of entertainment, I'll say that even though Reckful is a bit of an asshole ... I agree with everything he said about twitch streamers, and it's exactly what I've believed for the past 5 years. It's extremely obvious if you compare how streaming was from 2011 - 2013 to now that 99% of streamers don't give a shit about you and are just out for your money; they will use whatever little sellout manipulation tricks they have in order to get it. I used to watch tons of streamers, but now I can barely watch any because it's so cringe how they sacrifice quality content in order to squeeze every dime out of their viewers ... and the worst part is, the viewers fall for their tricks every time hook line and sinker. It's pretty pathetic, but it's also taught me how easy it is to deceive the general public. If you've every subscribed or donated to any of these WoW streamers: Asmongold, Sodapoppin, Towelliee, Pikaboo, Cdew, and probably many more than you have very likely been deceived. Subscribe because you enjoy their content, don't subscribe because you want them to acknowledge you, or because you want to be a part of their stupid club, or because you want their little overreaction to make you feel better ... because it's all completely fake.
Yeah idk what Reckful was trying to do there. Whaazz won Blizzcon and was destroying everyone, Whaazz was sitting r1 on 8 alts while Reckful was struggling to even make Glad. Reckful was right about streamers not being humble because he lost a lot of friends a year or two before his death for a reason, he treated others like shit and would not admit to being a douche and couldn't stop messing around with twitch/twitter thots that have fucked 50 different streamers.
@@Sobeitxd I beg to differ. I spent hundreds of hours with him, and here you claim that I didn't know him. Ludicrous. Altho I do understand how for stupid people it is impossible to get to know what a streamer really is like off stream.
Wow did Mitch actually ignore drama? Is he like chill again now? I love Mitch when he’s not all wrapped up in drama and talking about it over and over every single stream. When he’s not doing that he’s dope af imo
Phizix at 1 point..He lost it,and surely will loose that spot.Just wait for blizz to nerf fire mage because of this and then ooo boy shall we see who will be rolling fire mage.
shame that nobody was there for him at this moment, someone who would've told him to stop streaming and maybe go out or something, twitch chat just makes everything worse everytime
@@satchelmcleod6040 The internet’s mean comments didn’t kill reckful. The man dealt with severe depression all his life revolving around him and his close friends.
@@chloegpt Reckful treated others like shit while living off his parents money for years, he cheated on multiple girls and lost so many friends because he was such a dick to everyone and had such an ego and couldn't get over himself. He was getting mean comments because he was just showing his true colors over the years and attacked people for no reason and just treating people like shit.
Well he has a lot of valid points tho, kids tend to think that the streamers streampersona is actually how they act irl. Of course most guys are in it for the money, its what allows them to play games fulltime, if they could play games without the hustle to stream and still make money, Most of them probably would because they could chill plenty more.
Of course people are gonna be an actor at their JOB. Just like how bartenders and servers don't really care for you but will play nice with you for your money. Same concept
-Genes- He's cocky because he's a human that excels at a certain activity. Like 99.9% of people. The ones that are "Humble" most often do it for the positive attention that brings them. Deep down they know they're the shit and love it. Be fooled by it if you'd like. Most youtubers are after certain demos. Asmondgold and Swifty for example polar opposites. $ is the primary goal and they tailor themselves accordingly. Also to pretend "not saying you have" any of these guys have the time to care about their viewer's beyond a shout-out after a donation is beyond reality.
Zethrickk Vanhavert LMAO holy shit , so people exist that actually buy into reckfuls bullshit? It’s almost like a cult of narcissists, you people are fucked in the head
@@ThreshyNeonz Nah, Reckful needed help.. He needed people to call him out on his bs and get him the help he needed.. Obviously that's easy to say now in retrospect, but he was full manic here and lashing out at anybody around him. Sadly moments like this pushed people away from him, and it seemed people were afraid to get on Reckful's "bad side." Dude was the best streamer ever, but his demons got the best of him sadly..
Reckful shows a lot of signs of some bipolar condition, or at least on the spectrum. No, I don't mean the "hue hue u r autistic" - I am serious. He's being VERY weird and manipulative with that girl and attempts to (and overdoes it) sound like an innocent child when the girl is clearly upset about something. That they even had that messed up argument on stream is sick.
he was just being real with how the whole streaming industry works. hes not crazy or disabled, he's only a bit sad and tries to get thru by passing thru these truthful sad moments thru manic fast steps to get to a happier place (everyone has one, everyone has mood swings and everyone is either too happy or too sad at times, depending on environment or moment of life/vs expectations)
Current WoW takes way less skill, back in the day before they normalized stats in PvP. It took way more strategy and planning to win games, it's very cookie cutter now.
I heard someone say " thats not why people watch reckful" well what do they watch him for, he is so boring and cringy but people still watch him so wtv. I just wish i understood why
Almost all good players at any game are like that. I raided high end(top 20 world) for a solid 8-9 years and the shit people say behind closed doors is fucked up. Everyone was so elitist in those guilds it's crazy. Our guild even had a recruitment form on the website where our officers would make fun of people that tried to join the guild. Before that I was doing gladiator mmr 3s and 5s, and some people were so elitist on skype like holy shit. If someone made one small mistake some people would rage out on the first loss even if we had just won 3-4 games in a row. I just accept it though, but I feel a lot of people don't realize how it is.
What he's saying about streamers is true they pretend but one of the biggest is asmondold and I feel like he don't pretend at all he's opposite to this he will ban people for disagreeing 😂 I find that kinda funny because he's being real he will just say naaahi don't need this drama and peace out. So being fake won't work being real will
@hyeboi learn to read lmao. The point of my comment is if i was becca i would leave him and people agreed. "People just talk to talk nowadays" wow, back in your days people never talked to talk? Becca should leave him again so he can go back to talking about how sad his life is and how he wants his twitch to be deleted. "Talking to talk"
@hyeboi yeah i definitely posted a comment about some girl who should leave some guy on a random twitch wow clips looking for validation or to be heard, ok buddy 🙃. And does everyone have to think "will someone give a shit about this" before they comment? Fall in line with all of his other white knights.
+hyeboi 1. It's apparent that reckful does care about most peoples opinions since he is a narcissist. That's literally why he is mad in the video in the first place. I also like how you pulled out this strawman when you don't really know how reckful feels either LMAO. 2. It is you that needs validation, when you replied 8 times in this thread, triggered that someone said something relevant to the becca/reckful situation. It does hold weight to alot of morally sound people because it's relatable. But, seeing as how you are socially inept and unintelligent, that it's clear that you are projecting your own insecurities. It's also clear that you very much do care, which is why you wasted so much time, energy etc. replying to OP about.. Nothing. He literally stays in your head rent free. 3. You also make weird nonsensical claims such as "you put it out into the universe for no reason"... Dude, you're entire existence is nothing to the universe, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't live. You can draw certain parallels to commenting on youtube videos or anything that you do. What are these retarded fucking talking points? 4. "just find human behavior to be hilarious this gen". You know nothing of human behavior and i would bet money that you don't know much of anything. 5. Atleast OPs points were relevant to the video, while your points had no substantial importance or relevance, whatsoever. But what do I expect from such self unaware individuals. Dont bother replying to me, as i won't read any of your replies as it would waste too much of my time and energy to someone as worthless as you.
whoever that was talking to asmon about "ANIMAL CRUELTY" that applies to animals' not insects. You're allowed to kill ninja by crushing him but he's hiding in his house so its like a bug in the walls, cant get to him y'know?
So....I am trying to make money by having any sort of donation button on my stream? I am only trying to make money and not be humble? Come on man, I just subbed to him and well now nah I am good.
@@Asamitaka99 Reckful is calling out other streamers for having a donation button and making money while he does the same thing. I know you liked him and he died but don`t be ignorant.
The guy is a man child. He got banned from WoW for good reason and even to this day he still can't grasp that it was his fault that he got banned. Applies to a lot of his life.
alright, I wont pretend that this mental breakdown about humbleness wasnt cringe, but you seriously think that it's fair he is still banned for account sharing (playing paly he never played before for stream fun) 5 years later even though thousands of people are doing it, selling ranks and whats not every f day, even showing it on stream and they are not getting banned? No, that's not fair.
Adam Life isn’t fair, instead of being a bitch about it do something about it. You will learn that the people who do something about it, are successful. The ones who bitch & complain about it, will not be successful, and will always carry that “woe is me, I can’t catch a break” type of guy. Don’t be that guy.
but Cdew got caught selling glad titltes and got unbanned so he for account sharing should just be unbanned, its the fact someone had a grudge against him @ blizzard and purposely banned him on christmas etc
@@estoc9615 Dude! You can't go to a comment from 2 years ago. The clip in the video was about him having a "mental breakdown" and shit talking Whaazz. No one actually realized how bad he had it...
@@fowaz1549 Your petty youtube comments from years ago contributed nothing to Reckful’s death, the people saying otherwise are virtue signaling weirdos.
@@ayo1149 yeah it's a roach but asmon made it sound like he was going to torture the damn thing and if you think he's weird for trying to stop that then you are sick in the head mate
@@estoc9615 No, he killed himself because he burned bridges with his real life friends after decades of severe depression. Petty youtube comments have very little to do with it. Very shitty thing to act as if these people have blood on their hands.
@@chloegpt He treated people like shit for years. This was not something that happened recently in his life at the time. He had a huge ego and could never get over himself while living off his parents money. He couldn't keep a GF even though the chicks he talked to any streamer could marry because of how easy they were/are, he would cheat on them and abuse them instead of being a half decent human being.
I can't believe he went from one of his rants to chat to actually IRL talking shit on Becca. "I wanted to go run for an hour and you wouldn't let me" ????? like what, you are a grown ass man do what you want. It is really interesting to see his descent into complete madness, he really needs to see a professional therapist multiple times a week.
Rekful need some life advice, twitch is a showbis like other industries. If they want to grow with their product, then they need to be "fake". I work in the film industry and it is exactly the same.
It doesn’t seem like too much of a breakdown. Reckful was like that most of the time, but that’s why I liked him. Real all the time. I think that lifestyle he had was just so unhealthy.
It's more the reason behind it that feels bad. They act humble because they know it attracts viewers, not because they are naturally humble. They're acting -- Is what Reckful means (I think).
Jonas Charif please tell whats the point of twitch streamers streaming for... oh right not for views, not for the money. Oh you know what I’m gonna go watch some mentally deranged guy plays WOW and complains about how fake other people are to make money. You guys need to grow the fuck up, youtubers and twitch streamers aren’t the only one. People fucking suck their employers dick to keep their job it’s that there are other people who chose the better way to make money and support.
