@micahreid5553 4 дня назад

@@MidwinterMinis I thought you handled that video really well personally. You clearly brought up points that newer players might not recognize about if they want to get their group into BA or other historical games and didn't seem to be passing judgment either way to me. The fact that people can look at a video like that and have the reaction they did is horrible to me. I completely agree that the behavior shown in the comments of that video has no business anywhere but I commend you for waiting until you were in a headspace to not lash back to address it. Love all your videos and can't wait until the deathmatch series starts up again whatever form it takes.

as a generic wargamer i'm going to quickly jump on the historical wargame shenanigans, i play as the germans in a wargame called "flames of war" now i quite honestly don't feel comfortable playing as them usually, but im in love with the unique german combat doctrine and the looks of the models, but i don't think it's justified to harrass a innocent... guy, its honestly disguisting what people are capable of and i feel really sorry for anyone who has fallen victim to all these... mindless individuals who think their actions don't have an effect on the people they harrass in real life! i really hope everything is going okay now since you're my idol! my whole warhammer carreer is thanks to you and i know this might sound weird, or look weird but im really thankful for opening my eyes to warhammer and everything else!

@ajollyduck 5 дней назад

As someone who has developed "thick skin" against others opinions, as long as you don't let them influence you they hold no power, but if you enjoying playing as a frankly distilled version of the Wehrmacht that's fine as long as you recognise their actions for what they are.

@MidwinterMinis 5 дней назад

@theandf 5 дней назад

Hey Guy, jumping in on that last part, the "historicals controversy": as a historical wargamer, I think you addressed valid points. Goonhammer last year put out a far more scathing article on the topic (which was similarly received, I guess), and the reality remains: some people in the Historical community don't want to hear anything even slightly critical of some aspects of their hobby. I can give tons of examples about this, so many I feel confident in saying it's one of the community's blindspots (namely, reading a mild critique/analysis and automatically jumping to the conclusion you're calling them nazis). It worries me that you think you "messed up" just because you got 50% split on likes/dislikes. That's not a fair metric. Whenever you put your opinions on a controversial topic, you'll get dislikes. If it ruffles some feathers, you'll get many dislikes! That's the reality of life whenever saying something that isn't bland and uncontroversial. Finally, I'm appalled that you got death threats. I knew about the speculations on your personal life, and that's none of anybody's business. But death threats? People are deranged.

@Spicy880 4 дня назад

Your second paragraph hits the nail on the head. Sadly, the life of a RU-vidr means making videos that are not just viewed but that have an excellent ‘like’ ratio. And as a consequence, RU-vidrs are incentivised to avoid topics that generate actual conversation or put out videos containing nothing but the most milquetoast opinions. I’m not advocating for Guy to ignore this fact and stir debate with potentially polarising takes because I appreciate that this is his living. But it irks me that the bargain that one must make is ‘keep your head down or be buried by morons’. Such an ecosystem will naturally tend toward blandness. Regardless, MWM is such a good channel that I have faith that Guy has the talent to succeed in navigating this puzzle with engaging content nevertheless. Anyway, good job telling the ball bags to eat it at the end btw Guy. Much love xxx

I'm sorry you went through that, Guy. I felt that the video, for me at least, was exactly what you described as the intent.

I think you're a champ, and we love you.

Your battle reports are some of the very best on RU-vid; I'm always excited when one comes out. The deathmatch was fun to watch and coincided with my introduction to the tabletop game.

The voice over, editing, narrating, and overall aesthetic quality is top notch.

I’m now sitting with a 1000 points American and 1000 points of Germans and I’m actually really glad to have started exploring outside the GWverse. While my Americans are based more on the boys in the movie Bridge over Ramegan, I went with the pretty blue uniforms of the German Luftwaffe field teams for the others. If you ever touch back into Bolt Action again, I’d love to see your take on that as well. Of course, I’ve been working on some Finns as well, which is a great way to kitbash German and Russian stuff together to make your own unique army. Anyway, thanks again for getting me into this hobby!

Glad to hear your housing situation is sorted, for now. I'm not really into 40K any more but I did enjoy your Start Collecting series and will probably watch the new format. It'd be nice to see some AoS content from you, especially with the new Spearhead gameplay, it seems the smaller, faster matches would be right up your street, I'm jus not sure how you feel about Fantasy. I'm not weighing in on the content of the Historical Wargaming video but Kudos for standing up for yourself, you're absolutely right, that kind of behaviouor is reprehensible.

I like you Guy, youve been fun to watch over the years, Hatty is infectiously fun to watch and ive never had any complaints with your videos (your post production has grown so well over all this time)...as a normal person (almost sane) i have no concerns with you, your promotional advertising (i thought the ship ad was inline with historical gaming) and i have no issue with working with other companies such as your spray paints...i say kudos to you good sir, in my mind teaming up with a well respected company is an achievement to show that other companies see and view your channel as something important to the community. As just a simple plebian I was never aware of the insanity you faced from the Bolt Action video...i remember watching a bit of it going "meh historical isnt for me" and that was it. But apparently there are scumbags out there who have to make themselves feel important by bullying or hurting others. But just as you saw with the family who won your butthole tank, theres normal fans out there who are very appreciative of your work. Thank you for your time and effort and your teams hard work and effort in supplying us with the entertainment that you all do so well. I wish nothing but good things for you in the future as I excitedly continue to watch you grow. As a viewer from the states if your primer ever comes here, i would love to grab a can of yours and Peachy's just to own them and put on my shelf as a fan.

The Start Collecting Deathmatch plans sound great to me! Those videos are some of my all time favorites on the channel, but it's not specifically because of the Start Collecting sets, it's because the small scale battles are easier to grasp and your battle reports are BY FAR the best on youtube

The way catalyst treats their customers is why i went ham on their most recent battletech kickstarter. It's night and day from how GW treats customers (victims). The rules for battletech are, while dense, extremely well written and intuitive so its eay easier to learn than the convoluted slop GW puts out.

Great video Guy. I have been a really long time subscriber and your Blackstone Fortress videos way back got me into my favourite standalone tabletop game. The Bolt Action video was a learning experience I suppose, but it was clear that a large portion of people used that to further prop up their assumptions of you and your character after a very personal situation. (My partner left last year, I stayed with the kids so I know how sensitive this situation is). Anyway, keep on doing what you do. It is clearly working as you are on your way to 40(0)K!

I just love the good vibes, the nerdy geekiness, the incredible creativity, the smooth editing and you guys' general tremendous positivity. Feels like a warm bath. That said, I am very sorry to hear you had to go through all that bad shit. Some people just don't seem to understand there are real life people on the other end of their mindless threats.

@benscerri6472 4 дня назад

I think the 500pt battle report idea is a solid one! Also, side note: as a PoC who has been in the hobby space since I was 4 years old (32 now), I can honestly say you said nothing wrong in the historical wargames video. There are a lot of players who _do_ deserve side-eye for their "enthusiasm," whilst there are also some really good reasons to play those games. The thing is, the same is true for 40K (though to a lesser extent, of course), with even particular armies garnering those vibes. There's a reason I've never met a Maltese Black Templar player, for example :P I'm glad to see you take such a strong stance against the vitriol. Keep up the good work, Guy.
