I personally have only seen a few of his videos, but i don't really understand why they have so many views or why he has so many subscribers. Why so much hype over this guy?
Can anyone explain what it is about him that apparently makes so many people watch?
-
Well, there are some people who just like him cuz he's a pussy when he plays horror. Also, in the past, he had a LOT of fan girls! So probably, all the views are the past fan girl's views (also his subs.)

Edited by bip: 5/3/2015 8:56:48 PMIt's a mix of a lot of things. -People wanting to see reactions to horror/rage games -Peer pressure, AKA subbing so you know what your friends are talking about -Him speaking English but also having lived in multiple countries gives him more coverage in those areas. -Long videos released frequently -Constantly recommended by YouTube -Actually being genuinely funny, just not the funniest. -Plenty of colabs under his belt -Supporting indie community -Donates to charity, garnering more attention from those who would normally never watch his videos -Word of mouth -Arguments about him like in the comments of op garner even more attention from people who would normally never watch his videos Overall, his rise to fame is very similar to that of indie games such as Minecraft and FNaF. Even though they're not the best things ever, they manage to garner more attention due to being a way to get into its genre/medium. There's a Game Theory video further elaborating on this, you should check it out. JK ITS OBVIOUSLY FAKE SUBS

Idk man... One that baffles me is Smosh. They regularly get hundreds of thousands of views every video. I can feel brain cells die when I watch them trying to understand it.
-
Because he over acts everything he does. Americans find this amusing.
-
I bet over 70% of his subscribers is also subbed to stampy.

It's because a lot of kids use YouTube.

Because he's video proof that Swedish people are actually real

The same reason so many people play Call of Duty. They just don't know there's better things out there.

Dude he's hilarious, if you don't think he's funny you're an idiot

Stockholm Syndrome

Because he's a funny guy and he is the definition of a true gamer.
-
Well, he used to have quality, but around 20mil, he became what he currently is

Apparently the way to riches is just to scream and/or overreact to everything you encounter.
-
Dere creativity is at a all time low and they should have a thumb up der ass?

Because kids these days are idiots.

Robbaz or roosterteth is better.

I actually wonder this for all of the "let's play" youtubers. I just you know...play the game myself? Maybe I'm just a dinosaur. An old skool rebel that refuses to change with the times. But seriously, can someone explain this phenomena go me?

All youtubers are shit hacks who will have 0 friends in real life. He's an adult trying to be popular amongst 13yo's... Thats about it.
