He got hustled by TFGM.
That seems really random.
while really sad, this also makes me a bit angry. I mean it’s free content, we enjoyed DAYS of video entertainment, but as part of the reason what maked his project grow I kinda demand a proper explaination as he will leave a big gap behind. doesn’t need to have all the details or something, but at least more then that confusing babble would be appropiate. also it seems awkward that he doesn’t mention what happens exactly to CC / CC Live / Adventures etc. Either that’s not decided yet, because it’s an urgent situation or there are simply no plans.
Just putting it out there, Renic did hint this phase when talking about the Gootecks situation. He says that there are “Bigger Forces at play” that we don’t know about. Gootecks did say in his goodbye that he is looking to expand to other areas, and taking a break from the FGC. If i were to guess it could be MLG. I cant really buy if he really is going to be going to twitch, or even own3D unless I am proven otherwise. But, if you noticed lately MLG drawing in or recruiting some of the Fighting gamers from the community like Art. Connect that with what triforce was talking about how there is more money in MLG then at tournaments. Though obviously there is more to this then I think any of us knows.
oh of course the fuck you was for perfect legend, triforce, and art. Though honestly I feel art didnt really stir the pot but I am a stream monster and I wasnt there for myself. heh joined the FGC right as shit hit the fan. We know Drama.
scarlet spider is the real spider man btw. according to the one comic i bought when i was 13. peter parker is the clone.
“FUCK YOU”- Gootecks.
I lol ed
What does Perfect Legend or Triforce have to do with any of this? I don’t know anything about what happened at FR. I assume you mentioned Art because of the Mike Ross/Jago cell phone stream thing?
uh, yeah you do.
It’s called “Labor of love,” its grinding through the hardships and the headaches for something you love – but once it becomes something you no longer enjoy, its just slavery – and at that point, people quit. Folks do it all the time. they spend years doing something, even something as simple as playing an MMO, and there comes a point where people or just the monotony of the activity itself saps the fun and enjoyment out of it and it becomes time to just move on.
Where is LI Joe? We need someone to get to the bottom of this.
I allready have something like this behind me as well, but his farewell doesn’t show any of those symptoms nor did he mentioned it. and by “greater force” I don’t think he means his own amusement level…
So i just heard Complexity fired him but I don’t know why? Fired from the very thing he created?
There is just waaay too much drama in the FGC now. There are so many changes and things happening right now, that things are just going in a completely different and unknown direction.
I guess he’s taking time off to perfect his stick throwing technique
I’m not acquainted with this person or what he does but I hope what ever he choose to do will leave him happy with no regrets.
Shots… fired.
Too soon?
Some shit definitely went down, it sounded like it well before the “f you” shout out. Sucks
Check the tags on the VOD. It says “Ultra” “David” “fgc”.
who cares? I am however interested to know why he quit. lol Mike ross making some deals with other guys to earn that money and gootecks got cut out. Since he can’t make money winning tournaments and he’s not making money doing other things, I guess he’s out. Wonder if he’ll quit fighting games too? It’s not like anyone will notice his absence if he does.
yea I think gootecks was pissed about that. but yea I link you what happen between Perfect Legend and Triforce situation with Mike and Ryan.
You need to stop thinking so hard/looking into this too deeply.
There may or may have not been some incident at FR, I almost gurantee you though it isnt the sole reason he is leaving… maybe tipped him over the edge but this was coming sooner or later. I gurantee you over the next 3-5 years (assuming the FGC stays as active as it is) you will see the original personalities from the 09 boom slowly start leaving too and moving on with life… they will all hit that age where hitting buttons just wasnt use to be and they need to start looking at other things that life has to offer.
Then again we are all suppose to die on December 21st this year because the tin foil heads say so… so above could be a moot point.
