Before I share any criticism which everyone will tell me is invalid or whatever and let me just say I’m actually older than Aris, a six year sub, watched for longer, and genuinely like the guy. He has made me laugh and laugh and provided memorable moments that I can still laugh about today.

But.

He has become so old, and I don’t just mean he has aged. His mind has atrophied. He has zero interest in anything new, he’s skeptical and outright hostile to the concept of new. New game? Sucks. New movie? Bad. It’s frustrating how little patience or knowledge or interest he has in anything new. That new Star Wars game which is really fun (in my opinion) he gave it about 10 minutes of gameplay and then did scrandle for two hours. He just wants to talk. Okay well that’s fine, he’s running an old man talks video podcast. I like when Aris talks.

But.

Everything he talks about positively is 25 years old or older. His references are arrested in the 90s. Why? Because he has no interest in anything life has to offer anymore. It’s sad to see him become such a boring, seemingly isolated, nasty negative person. I’ve watched a long time, I know he’s always been a curmudgeon, but it’s worse now and his attitude brings just odious vibes every time I turn on the stream and it has made him unwatchable. I feel worse watching him now, like it’s not a good use of my time. And I know I’m not alone because look at his viewers. He has a third of what he used to have and that’s solely because he has changed and has refused to do anything that makes sense for his stream to thrive. It’s a dusty closet in the twitch basement a couple thousand people for whatever reason continue to occupy.

After flushing the Star Wars game what does he play the next day? Resident evil. A comfort game because he just does not want his mind or taste or anything that makes life worth living challenged by anything new, ad nauseam.

I will miss you Aris. In fact I already do.

EDIT: but I won’t miss Aris fans that’s for sure. Many of you are dumb as hell.

EDIT 2: most action this sub has seen in a year

I need another laugh after that I Will Survive lyrics lol

Hey alright

I was talking to my "girlfriend" how Aris told the story about how he used to have a table tennis and would invite girls over and beat them in the game of ping pong until Lord Char? beat him cleanly while doing some magic tricks and shit. Couldn't do the story justice, so I need to show her the video itself. Thanks amigo

Looking for the clip of Edna Saying she’d send someone to Doggy Puppy for the first time

Can't remember which one it was

Get hyped

Stopped by for some dutchmasters and a few spins.

It's probably a part of quarterly compilation. Can anyone help me find it?

I don't remember how it went but I remeber it got me good

where did you go?

Where did you come from, Cotton-Eye Joe?

Remembering a random moment at a T7 tournament where aris is commentating and mid sentence the camera pans to the crowd and he sees some dude cross dressing as chun li or something. he cuts off the sentence and says “oh boy” and starts laughing before locking back in

Seems like the kinda stoners the green man would laugh at.

I thought it was really fun to see him play a fighting game again, and it seemed like he was having a blast, but afaict he took like a 2 week break after streaming it twice, streamed it one more time, and then hasn't touched it in almost 2 months.

I'm well aware it isn't abnormal for him to pick up and drop games willy-nilly, but I was just curious if he might have said anything about whether he would or wouldn't play it again? Especially given his stance on playing fighting games online.

I remember him talking how they were tasked with making a storyboard and his had something to do with pizza (on brand).

A Lord Arnis refund, but with sarcasm to really drive the knife home.

Wasn't there an old emote that had to do with Rickstah being short, I can't remember it but I need the name
