MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE. We have been working HARD to condense the entire year into one highlights video for you all. This is my final video of the year, and I hope everyone enjoys it. A massive thank you to my editor Cloe for working on this throughout 2022. This year has been my absolute favourite for making content, and I hope you all enjoy the highlights. Thanks as ever for supporting what I do, and I'll see yous in 2023
Hey RT. Please start putting mid roll ads in long videos like these. I don’t think most of us mind listening to a woman say random things for half a minute if it financially supports you.
RU-vid really needs to fix themselves. All of RT's content is a masterpiece and will always be a masterpiece. There is no reason why his videos should be getting age restricted and demonetized.
let's be real for a second: YT has certain guidelines for a reason: advertisers. Nobody can make money on this platform without them. The fact that they change the policies, apply them retroactively, don't cite the violative content until you appeal, and then don't allow you to fix the content and have the video restored (because that would be a "second appeal") is bananas! Whether you think it's a 'masterpiece' is irrelevant. The problem here is how creators are being treated in regards to policy enforcement. It's hugely disrespectful and fully illogical.
I got so emotional watching his video talking about this video getting taken down, RU-vid has no right to do this to him. He is such a great person, and honestly none of his content is even remotely concerning enough to be so ruthless with his videos.
I mean, annoyingly youtube have every right to do so. But it certainly does raise the question of whether they should employ those rights in these ways. Goodness knows they are taking the p**s with it. I sure hope we get a viable alternative to this nonsense someday, if only for the creators sake. Imagine having something like the old youtube back, without that nonsense algorithm where you can actually discover new creators. wouldn't that be something... 😮💨
@@rtgameclips5779 youtube doesn't feel like its good enough anymore basically. There isn't really anything wrong with RT's content. And he's not the only one being f**ked over by this either. RU-vid just doesn't give a dang about its content creators.
Hey RT, not sure if you're reading this, but I just saw your most recent video about YT basically demonitizing your whole channel. You're my absolute favourite content creator on RU-vid. Your voice is constantly coming out of my headphones while I do chores, work assignments, sitting in public transportation etc. and you've truly made me laugh and replay certain parts of your videos so many times this year. You put a smile on my face so often, even when most days were gloomy and depressing. I just truly want to thank you for being here and entertaining the world. It is obvious that you're doing this out of passion and put so much hard work into everything you do. Shoutout to your cutter/editor as well (wasn't Chloe her name?) for putting all that work in to bring your stream content to this channel. Take a well-deserved break for your mental health, just as you announced. What's my favourite comedian without a healthy mind? I'll be looking forward for when you come back. Don't feel rushed, take care and try to keep a positive attitude, even though this year started so poorly, it's still long and can only get better.
This channel is a part of my blood at this point. So many fond memories of watching this chaotic man do funny things while playing games after school whenever I have time. It just makes me so happy to watch this man, and I know it makes y'all happy too.
RT really bringing out the best in his community right now!! I’m so happy seeing how members are reaching out and in support of Dan! All of us wish the best for you!
I cannot imagine RU-vid as a platform without RT. He has given me many sleepless nights full of merriment and given me a deeper appreciation for creators through his content and collaborations he participates in. I recognise that we can only hope that RTGame as a channel is not wiped out but It's good to hear he notices us. All the best, Rumble Tumble, Daneshiro, Drift King Daniel, and hang in there.
This should not be age restricted and RU-vid is dumb. Amazing work RT, you really did play everyone's favorite games this year just like you promised. Really proud of your work.
It may sound corny, but there’s been days where watching your videos felt like coming home from a long, tough day. Just sitting there, turning RU-vid to watch some of your videos, and playing them expecting nothing but you and your play-throughs. But once those 30 minutes of highlights passed by, I always felt afterwards like everything was going to be okay, no matter what. So no matter what, I’m sure you will find a way to get through all of RU-vid’s unfair decisions, because I believe in you, Daniel, and I believe in the amazing work you’ve done during these recent years. And I’m sure I ain’t the only one who feels this way; just look at all the amount of people who enjoy your content up to this day! So my best wishes, Dan, and here’s for another great year for you and your channel. You’ve got this man, and cheers!
I don’t comment a lot but hearing about what’s happening I want to, this year has been so difficult and these videos have helped me so much it’s crazy. These videos have brought a smile to my face during the hardest times of this year and I’m really grateful for your content. honestly RU-vid is just being a little cow for doing this. Thank you for always uploading amazing content and being yourself.
All of these streams were super memorable, and it sucks that the very act of preserving these moments are met with so many unfortunate rule changes. We love you Dan, you deserve a break after all this!
Hi Dan! Just finished watching your demonetization video, and I have to say, it’s very hard seeing you in emotional distress. My sister and I have been watching your videos for years now. We used to skip school just to watch your videos in the morning. You have gotten us both through many tough times in life, and I’m sure you mean the world to your entire community. We all love you, and we will follow you wherever you go ❤️ Stay strong Dan!
I got to watch the video shortly after you posted it, and it was the biggest nostalgia trip ever reliving the whole year once again, remembering things that happened to me during the year. Honestly this channel has been accompanying my life for a long time, I really really love it and I hope you can manage to get back all the hard work you've put this past year, and all the ones before that, you deserve it, and I truly mean it
Here to show my support. I have chronic illnesses as well as depression/anxiety. Your videos have kept me sane during some incredibly painful and lonely times. Hearing you chat and seeing your gameplay is like chilling with a friend. Depending on the game you're playing, I even watch your content with my two 7-year-old kids. You're a wonderful creator, and the YT power trip is so wrong. Sending positive vibes and silent cheers for you!
It takes so much love and care to make content every week, to upload videos and to enjoy what you do wholeheartedly. To have that passion and love ripped away from someone is just plain cruel. We're all rooting for things to go better than they have been and if 2022 was the best year for you, it was just as amazing for us. We can do this if we all work together.
This video is a masterpiece and it makes me super sad to see the effect of it being age restricted... I hope RU-vid will fix these completely unfair guide lines soon, I am so sorry that this happened to you! You are one of my most favourite content creators and it just wouldn't be the same without you. Much love and support from all of us!
i love this channel so much the mixture between banter with chat that isnt relevant to the video game and dan actually caring about and being genuinely invested in a game's story and gameplay makes each video so satisfying to watch
Policies can also change and no matter how bad a situation looks there’s always a way around. I do agree that the policy is stupid. But don’t lose hope, we’ll find a way to fix it. It might take awhile though.
I never comment on videos but I figured since the whole issue with content restriction has been set ablaze, this is the least I could do is express my support. RT you have been my favorite content creator since I started college, and now I'm graduated (6 years later) and with a full time job. I've watched your content through one of the most brutal transitional parts of my life, became an adult, and I used your content as a safe haven for some of the worst years I have experienced. There are playthroughs on your channel that I can click on and remember the exact era of my life in which I watched every single one of those videos. My life unfortunately has been riddled with trauma, but this channel alone got me through almost every single one of those horrible moments, brought a smile to my face during those times of extreme suffering. Back then I watched your videos from my lonely apartment, now I watch them in the comfort of my new city home with my partner, even my new kitten sleeps next to my computer when he hears your voice. Your videos are a source of joy, laughter, happiness, and so much more to so many people, even some cats out there. If you choose to leave RU-vid, I will absolutely gladly follow you and your content wherever you choose to go. From the bottom of my heart and soul, thank you, thank you for everything you have ever done and will continue to do and create.
RT is one of the youtubers that i watched more than most other people, his videos have helped me through so many tough times, thank you so much for everything
I first found this channel back in 2019 alongside my sister. You were a source of comfort and stability during some of the worst years of our lives back then, and we can't thank you enough for everything you've done and will continue to do.
I have no siblings but I agree with this sentiment, I haven’t missed a single upload since I stumbled on one of his videos by chance during that time! Really a place of comfort to wind down from the day
Hi RT, I seldom leave comments on videos, even when I really enjoy them. I’m not always vocal on this platform that I use practically every day, but your issues with RU-vid have given me reason to. I don’t have much to say, all I have to say really is that; You’ve gotten me and many others through hard times, depressed times when all you needed was to turn off your brain and laugh. You’ve inspired me, inspired me to want to create videos myself, to not take myself too seriously, and given me myriad ideas of ways to engage with my audience. I hope more than anything you stay here, that you’re able to, because you’re one of the few RU-vidrs who comes up with fresh ideas, genuinely loves the platform, and loves gaming. I hope you see this in this difficult time and I hope I brought you the same kind of hope you always bring me. We’re all in this together Dan, we all love you.
❤❤ what a great compilation of some truly memorable times! I truly appreciate the community you’ve built! I found your channel while going through some hard times a few years back. Been watching it ever since. Your content always manages to bring a smile to my face even when dealing with the darkest of situations. Sending so much love and well wishes! Cheers to 2022!
This whole situation is miserable, and I hope it gets resolved soon. Your content has helped me cope with my depression while I'm studying away at university. I play your videos pretty much 24/7 while I do everything. I've had to prove how old I am to keep watching your content which for anxiety and paranoia is a terrifying experience even though I'm an adult. I can't simply put how incredibly uplifting and reassuring your content makes me feel, and how much (over the past however many years I've watched) enjoyment and genuine happiness you've given me and many others through your content, especially younger viewers (not kids). When i was younger and started watching, this was the only cope I had with my issues, and to know other young adults (or those who don't want to prove) may not have access to your entertainment genuinely hurts me, because then I wouldn't have had this to help the worse parts of my life. People don't realise how much a voice in the background can help with loneliness or anxiety. RU-vid is treating someone's livelihood as a game and playing with it; shockingly inappropriate. I really hope this gets fixed soon so that many other viewers, and myself, can experience those moments with you again and again.
After seeing your video about your content that got restricted I am so happy to still have this video suggested to me on my front page. I love everything you port and I try to regularly participate in your live streams. I hope this issue will get resolved eventually! much love and appreciation!
This is my first real time commenting on…really any YT video, mostly out of just a fear of lacking transparency, but your restriction video made me want to say something. Just…thanks. Thanks for being one of the most consistently fun and entertaining content creators I’ve followed. I started watching around 2020 after a funny build project for a mall filled with beautifully morbid shops and I’ve been watching since. Your jokes, reactions, banter with chat, and everything is consistently enjoyable while never feeling forced. It was weird yet fun watching you coordinate a mass Minecraft reconstruction of our planet, spend hours hunting a sheep only to use it to mow down the entire Pokémon league, ruin cities and skylines with spaghettified junctions, press an entire party of people into wine, show of the Drift King legacy, and so much more great content. You managed to get me invested in new series and ideas, watching you become such a tyrannically wonderful king, conquering the ocean with a penguin, tackle plenty of wild indie and smaller games, shank the spire, herd slimes for the sake of capital, and plenty more new interests. And it was so invigorating when you checked out a series I loved so much. Proving you were a lawyer with a badge, dealing with dubious beverage blockades in Hollow Knight, creating the ultimate product empire of Pelican Town, discovering the horrors of Kirby, doing…about the average things in Miitopia, and most recently, overthrowing god. And after seeing what’s happened to you and plenty of other content creators, I’m so sorry you have to deal with this. I can’t properly watch the video, but I did manage to see the first half before it was blocked, so I don’t feel ashamed in giving this the like it deserves. Again, thank you, your editors, collaborators, and everyone else who’s helped bring this channel to life: even chat. I know there isn’t much I can really do other than spread the word, but if the best I can do is to show you’ve reached some people, then I’m happy to help. Thanks for making these past years happier, for me, and I know darn well plenty others. We’re here for you.
I genuinely felt so emotional watching your 'demonetisation' video... RT, I've been loving your content for years, it's often the best part of my day and I hope one day I can bring just a small amount of joy to others that you - and this huge cursed family - bring to me. Many of my friends feel frustrated and annoyed that their content doesn't grow quickly because they want to get money from it, and I'm proud to often use you as an example of someone who, through just doing what you love, have been able to entertain so many people and have made a big difference to the online community and even many charities
Leaving another comment after watching the update on the whole YT situation. I speak for everyone when I say that you made this year amazing with your content, and absolutely brought so much joy into all of our lives. We hope you are doing well and await your return to content :) Thanks for making this shitshow of a year incredible!
@@stebex5052 I know,,,, you can tell dan puts so much love into the content he creates for us and it's gut wrenching to see him treated this way. Hoping things start to improve on this :)
Thank you for making content that has filled me with laughter and joy over the months of 2022. I wish this unnecessary problem alleviates itself and we can continue on our merry way. Best of luck Drift King!
I've been a lurker for 4 years, I never really comment on yt videos either but I'm appalled at how RU-vid has handled this situation. Dan, you've been my favourite creator on here (and twitch!), I get so excited for every single upload notification I get from this channel. Hours of high quality laughs from a high quality man, I am so appreciative of your work and what you do. You and your team have been one of the wonderful joys of my life for so long and I am sad and angry and so disheartened but also, furiously supportive of whatever you decide is best for you. You might not be allowed to swear but I'll do it for you: fuck this bullshit. Much love :^)
I’ve been silently watching RT for about four years now. RT has helped me genuinely through some of the worst times in my life, I truly enjoy his content, and I am so bummed to see how RU-vid has treated him over the years. If RT decides to leave RU-vid, or wherever he decides to go, I plan on following! He’s such a blessing in a chaotic package
I have also been watching RT silently for a few years and he makes the best content i have ever seen, if he has to stop i will be devastated, he really is the best.
Really terrible stuff that is happening with the age restrictions and all. RU-vid started off this year terribly and I feel really sorry for your situation. All the support in the world for you RT!!!
Just finished watching the stream vod of the watch-along. What a fun time and an amazing year, sorry to see youtube act this way and restrict so many from a great video. Your content and perseverance is an inspiration, thanks Dan.
This is one of the more wholesome channels on RU-vid. It's unbelievable the type of stuff this platform does to its creators. Hopefully the increased attention to the fundamental issues of RU-vid as a platform will result in some sort of positive growth. RT, I hope you get your issues resolved and are able to have fun doing what you do best! Thanks for a great 2022!
You're hands down one of my absolute favorite content creators on this platform. Thank you for this year. You're a huge part of what made my 2022 bearable, and rewatching this year of content is genuinely such a joy. Thank you, Daniel. Thank you for an incredible year of memories.
love the content, heck the bullheck guidlines. Saving this to watch later cause i dont have 3 hours rn but cant wait to see all the amazing moments of your wonderful content from the last year!
Rt, I don’t comment much on RU-vid but genuinely you are one of the only RU-vidrs I’ve consistently been watching since 2020. You’ve helped me though heartbreaks, career changes and everything under the sun and I wouldn’t have it any other way. Many many sleepless nights, many days of stress and a lot of happy moments have all been lived with you and your videos, and I am truly sorry this is happening
After seeing the update video it's crazy how fast my schedule opened up to play this on repeat all day, and of course I shall be attending the twitch watch party tomorrow. I hope to see many others there as well.
Always loved watching your content through out the year on both Twitch and RU-vid thank you for making 2022 a better year with all these lovable enjoyable moments
I truly believe that 2022 has really been a game changer for this channel with the amount of people’s favourite games RT played this year from Elden Ring to Persona and got to experience all of it while modding for the channel for over a year with all of it coming back to that one time RT watched paint dry. Looking forward to all the exciting and terrifying things planned for 2023!
Your content this year was absolutely fantastic, I never truly discovered you until some of the ABSOLUTE BANGERS you put out. So so proud of you and wishing you nothing but the best and that RU-vid treats you as you deserve (so much better!)
Coming over from Spitting Brit mentioning you, actually never heard of you before but be glad to have found you this way, best of success in the future! :)
Back again after seeing that this got age restricted, sucks after all the work and time y'all put into this! This was a great look back on the year, and reminded me how many videos I put on my watch later but never saw. I know what I'll be watching in the limbo space before new year's
Thank you for making so much content for other people to enjoy. You're videos and streams helped me a lot and made me forget the problems i had for a little bit and gave me an opportunity to just relax and calm down.
I keep rewatching your Heavy Rain playthrough over and over again, and I just love your content. I am so grateful for the compilation videos on youtube cause they are easier to focus on for me
I watched this already when it came out and I'm back to say how amazing it is and is just sucks what RU-vid has done here. RT you're amazing and appreciated for all the amazing moments you've brought to us to enjoy! Thank you for all you do and I hope things get better.
I’m so sorry about what is happening RT. You, out of all people, deserve the shit that’s happening to you the least. I hope that RU-vid stops being an ass.
Ever since I found your channel back in 2019, you have become one of my great source of entertainment and joy in my life and the first ever content creator that I genuinely try and catch livestreams for as well. I hope the issues your channel has right now will get fixed soon and hope 2023 is good to your well-being and your channel. Thank you so much, RT!
Thank you for all of the wonderful content this year, RT. I found your channel back in 2019 with the Scribblenauts videos and have been watching ever since. Your content always makes me laugh, and I'm excited whenever I see a new upload. I hope that everything gets resolved for you on this platform for the year ahead and I wish you a restful break.
Rumble Tumble Games has always had the most humble and meaningful content that I watch, it is so heartbreaking to see that RU-vid moderation is just this bad. This kind of thing seems to happen to all big content creators nowadays and I hope RT comes back even stronger ❤
My girlfriend introduced me to you rt, but over the past year I've binged all i could of your channel, often times having you on my laptop as i fall asleep to help with my tinnitus rather than my boring rain sounds. From the bottom of my heart thank you for all that you do and the lulls of this year you've filled in many peoples lives. This year was greatly increased in quality for me having a new community and catalogue of content to go through, I and many others can tell you put your heart and soul into this. I hope your break is well and that you take it easy as much as you can. We all love you RT.
Bless you, I've had tinnitus since childhood, and have just had to grit my teeth and bare it. I mentioned this problem to my current doctor, and the dumbrass said, "The only people I know of who have tinnitus are those who are losing their hearing." My hearing has always been better than average. So, some nights the tinnitus keeps me awake, and other nights the sound of my refrigerator running keeps me awake. So, hang in there! Btw, have you tried whitenoise sound generators?
Here to support RT!! I'll share your video with as many others as I can! I'm so proud of you for all your work and I recently found your videos BECAUSE of the videos you put out in 2022. Your Link Vlogs... Sorry Lil' man vlogs was so hilarious in wind waker and others you made that year got you a new subscriber! Keep going, man! You will do great!
sadly didn't catch this one before the age restriction but i did catch the entire watch party livestream and had an absolute blast. hope 2023 (and YT) starts treating you better RT, this video is awesome and the amount of work put into it really shows and never fails to cheer me up
Sorry for what's happening man. No one can understand your pain better than yourself, so take care. I love your content and your humour, it made my day a little better when your video pop up in my feel. You as a person made your content entertaining and wholesome, take a rest from RU-vid, you deserve it. Thank you for your hard work, and wish this get blown over soon.
I'm here after the video you just released. I have to say, your voice has been one of the better parts in my life throughout all of 2022 which by all means was the worst year of my life. So thanks for all the things that you make.
I think my single most favorite moment is when Dan realizes that Sebastian being called Sebby is canon. He sounds so confused and distraught at the idea of his silly nickname being real. This was definitely my favorite year of watching your content and I can't express in words how excited I am for 2023 as a whole.
Returning from your content restriction video to reiterate: what you do (and have done) on this platform is a source of enjoyment and happiness for so many people, and I sincerely hope you do what's best for yourself in the long run.
Thank you for every smile and happy moment you've both shared and given this year! While as fans many of us don't talk to you directly, I feel as if you are building more than just a community, but a group of friends and confidants. Thank you, again, for an amazing 2022, and I think we all look forward to an even better 2023. Remember, you come first. It may be disappointing to some of us, however it would bring us more pain to watch you push yourself beyond reason, so take your time, and enjoy yourself!
I wanna try to save this for tomorrow's watch party, but still send my love and appreciation for every laugh and smile you've given throughout the years of me watching ^u^ Hang in there, I and many others are willing to follow wherever you end up, as best we all can. ❤🧡💛💚💙💜
Thank you for being so entertaining and spending the time putting this video together. I enjoy watching your content and hope to for many years to come.
This video is legendary, I've been here since 2018 and it just keeps getting better. You got me through highschool Dan! I'm in college and now obsessed with pokemon again and unafraid to express my other interests because 2 million and some other people laugh at the same things. If you do leave RU-vid, please know that this channel helped a young girl grow up and stay motivated through out the worst of her life.
I'm not someone who comments regularly but RT, this year has genuinely been one the most stressful years of my life. Your content is one of the few things I had to fall back on, and I cannot thank you enough. Hoping that you get some well-deserved down time during your rest. Take care 💚
Hey Daniel, I see your situation and wanted to tell you how much all of your content has meant to me. I’ve been watching your content for over 3 years now and have adored every bit of it. Your humor always lands and your channel has always been such a safe, comfortable space for me. You seem like a very genuine, passionate creator and that is what makes you special to me. You are one of, if not my favorite creators of all time. You make it very clear how much you care for us as viewers and despite your popularity have always made me feel like I’m appreciated and having fun along side you rather than watching a product of someone who has grown from a person to a brand. You remain humble and I have and will continue to forever respect you for that. Nobody has entertained me like you, and this video is truly a grand piece of work. Thank you for being the best creator I have to pleasure of watching, and being one of the most humble and genuine creators I’ve seen on this platform. I hope it all works out, I’ll follow you to any platform you decide to go ❤
