ChunkyNosher – Minecraft Youtube is getting worse, here’s WHY. (Hint: It’s MrBeast)

In this video 200 players 200 Minecraft players 100 on day one I SP in my ish video I said that Civilization videos are the Minecraft equivalent of isekai due to almost all of them being the same but I think I should change that statement all Minecraft content is starting to become

Like isekai if you go into the YouTube search bar and type in Minecraft SMP or Minecraft civilization or Minecraft 100 days and look at the search results what kind of distinguishing features could you find maybe you could note the varying font or the gimmick but when you

Actually start to watch these videos and look at the concept the pacing the structure the editing the tone of voice Everything feels the same compare that to the 2014 era of Minecraft YouTube where there was Sundy and Craner trying to out troll each other out when Craner

Steps on these pressure Place listen to this there’s popular MMOs and Jens playful banter their challenges and let’s plays should I give you the bread since you’re a female wa wa what what what you’re like a professional sandwich maker sex no it wasn’t that was no it’s a

Compliment it’s different I’m not like you’re a bad sandwich maker now that would be sexist there were the modded Adventures of DanTDM and Dr toris no no no no what is going on tros please no please tell me you did not just do this you have not made the Herobrine totem

Please tell me this is not true if you searched for Minecraft during that era of YouTube you could tell which video was Stampy or ddms or Sunday but now that just simply isn’t the case anymore when I started this channel I wanted to make video essays on the unique parts of

Minecraft YouTube and go into detail on what makes them so special but it’s hard to find anything unique beyond the two people I covered already in a game where the only limit is your imagination why why do all of these content creators make the same repetitive videos well

Unfortunately this isn’t just a problem that affects Minecraft content this is something that’s ingrained within the deepest parts of YouTube in order to understand the staleness of Minecraft content now we need to go back to 2018 to the Genesis of a new era of YouTube I need more

Bullets I need more bullets big weapon once upon a time there was a fairly small YouTuber known as Mr Beast who is growing faster than zenit’s Godlike first form by giving away money and doing stupid challenges however Jimmy knew that he hadn’t reached his full potential so he kept firing his synapses

Until he created the ultimate viral video idea giving away money for doing stupid challenges with the last to leave Circle challenges his foundation Mr Beast was able to to her finest talent for verality that would take YouTube to new heights but what exactly is this industry changing Talent a less assuming

Person would just think that Jimmy’s success only comes from the shock factor of his videos but upon digging further the years of research and hard work that Jimmy put into making Mr Beast is simply unmatched well I’m no Mr Beast Jimmy has shared so much valuable information

About making content on YouTube for free which is just further Testament to his generosity however this singular concept that Jimmy created is by far the most integral part to the success of Mr Beast and any other YouTube channel whether it’s a 10-minute video or a 10-hour

Video the first 10 to 30 seconds will always be the most important part of any form of media even before Tik Tok rotted everyone’s brains people’s attention spans were always short before scrolling through shorts people were switching TV channel channels to find something to be entertained by with those said people

Only watching for a few seconds before switching to the next Channel this is always been a constant in the entertainment industry and yet only Jimmy was able to fully capitalize on this according to Jimmy a video needs to first meet the expectations of a thumbnail and then exceed it multiple

Times over which was very prominent in even his earliest videos but not even night eye could have predicted the full scale of the cultural movement that came with Mr BEAST’s success for those that don’t know the Mr beastify content from video games to challenges to Tech to cooking to of

Course Minecraft have all adapted to the same style of Mr Beast similar to how most crustations evolve to look like crabs but instead of these copycats getting called out for copying Mr Beast they all obtained solid amounts of success due to the same reasons that Mr Beast was initi successful and unlike

Some blatant thers as xqc would put it all of these creators integrate the Mr Beast formula into their own Niche rather than just stealing Jimmy’s ideas honestly Jimmy deserves a lot more credit than what he gets for Paving a path of success for thousands of creators to walk on however with the

Seeds of success Jimmy had sown he would inadvertently grow to plants that would overpopulate and infest the YouTube ecosystem in order to understand what I’m talking about we need to be familiar with the hero’s journey a template and fictional writing that a metric [ __ ] ton of fictional stories follow because a lot

Of stories are about how a hero Rises up to go on an adventure to defeat a greater evil now if we relate that back to Jimmy the Mr beastify videos fit into from the constant loud energy throughout the video behind me is one person from every every country on

Earth the incessant need for action and Drama the Motion Graphics that tell the viewer what’s going on lost another 50 people during gymnastics and are down to our last 47 countries and of course the huge mindblowing spectacle that would change someone’s life both of these templates have garnered their fair share of controversy but for complete different reasons while

The hero’s journey could be a useful tool there have been numerous instances where writers have manipulated or straight up defied the hero’s journey just despite the idea of good stories having to follow a set of rules but on the other hand instead of content creators molding the template into

Something unique so many of them just follow it to a te no changes to the tone of voice to the pace of the video to the visuals on screen this is what people mean when they complain about the Mr beastify they have every reason to be mad the quality of content across

YouTube now is higher than it has ever been but it was at the cost of these creators abandoning their individuality to reach that threshold of quality and Minecraft content is one of the largest victims of this sacrifice the main reason that Minecraft became popular in the first place was because of the

Promise that you could do anything with the only limit being your imagination but with the Mr beastify of YouTube that really isn’t the case anymore with Minecraft content is it as soon as a concept Rises to popularity whether it would be a 100 days or civilization or anything else all of these Minecraft

Creators latch onto it and create several videos that are nearly identical to the original tainting the very Foundation of what made Minecraft special but the worst part of this situation doesn’t even lie in the homogeneization of Minecraft content the real tragedy lies in the reason that all

This even happened in the first place people are afraid to do anything Else while this Mr beastify incentivizes creators to make their content like Mr Beast it simultaneously punishes creators for trying to break that Norm and the even worst part is that no matter how loud the complaints are people always naturally prefer the fast High o Ain Mr beasts over the slow and

Collected Pine Le so the only question left is what do we do now well creators should step out of their comfort zone and try to create the next big thing instead of following what already works is what I would say but honestly I’m not so sure expecting every content creator

To be an enigma like Mr beast is just simply impossible to expect and from the content creator side taking risks and giving up the thing that gives you so much security and comfort is a way more daunting task than what people give it credit for at the end of the day it

Would take a movement just as large as Mr Beast to change the way people consume content and as far as I can tell it’s going to be a long journey before we get there however I think I know how we can take that first Step despite this entire discussion revolving around how Mr Beast ruined YouTube I’m going to be even more cont Arian and say that Mr Beast setting the new standard of engaging content is one of the best things that ever happened to YouTube even if others like pinley disagree honestly pinley videos are just

Not my cup of tea his videos play out like the Naruto War Arc where a few Great Moments get sandwiched between so much filler although to be fair nearly every commentary Channel and video essayist is like that in order to break out of these repetitive Norms content

Creators need to twist the Mr Beast template to create something fresh and exciting just like how writers twist the hero’s journey I wish I could tell you how to make yourself unique but I only know a few of the Endless ways to build upon the Mr Beast template but a couple

Of Minecraft youtubers have figured some stuff out flate is a guy with a soothing voice that gives advice and talks about [ __ ] similar to the weekly slap from J schlat with aesthetic modern Minecraft Gameplay in the background I go by lots of names or AG blond combined to text to

Speech voice obnoxious 21st century humor and the complicated nature of modern Minecraft into a genre of video that I can’t even describe you’re just going to have to watch it to understand and finally we have mixtunes he’s fairly new into video essay space but he makes these emotionally powerful videos that

Covered the very same issue that he inspired me to talk about all of these YouTubers still utilize Mr Beast tactics to keep the viewer engaged while still carving out their own unique identity I try to go against both Mr Beast norms and video essay Norms instead of following the long and profound nature

Of video essays I tried to keep my scripts as efficient as possible and integrate stupid jokes and references whenever I can I don’t think I’m done with Minecraft content but I have a lot more ideas that I want to make videos on so maybe you should subscribe if you see

Something that you like in this graphic to all of the content creators watching this video I encourage you to break these Norms as well and create something that’s both unique and engaging after all abandoning your uniqueness is equivalent to dying so don’t make generic videos that follow other

People’s success make the videos that you want to Make
