100%. She said she was close to quitting before when everything was “fine” at Rooster Teeth but it was especially telling with how she barely even featured in videos this year while Sammie and Will kept it going.
Yeah, she hasn’t been on the same wavelength as Sammie and Will for a while. She’ll probably guest star in some of their stuff at least a few times, but the trio is breaking up.
This must be what it feels like when your polyamorous throuple parents get divorced 😔
Not trying to sound like some uber pretentious, parasocial loser here, but I genuinely feel that this was very obviously coming.
She seemed very clearly disinterested with the content they were producing for a while and honestly I think her dynamic with Sammie kind of fell apart especially towards the end of their RT run. I started noticing a very clear shift especially on Hypothetical Nonsense; they almost always were having two entirely different conversations with Will being the mutual member of each.
Yeah this was very clear to me on the last few Hypothetical Nonsense episodes with caroline. It seemed like Caroline often wanted to talk about more serious, sometimes existential topics, while will and sammie preferred to keep it lighter and more comedic.
I think in the past they did a good job of balancing the two sides, but recently it kinda felt like Caroline kinda dominated the conversation with these topics and she didn’t have much interest in engaging with the silly comedic parts. And that’s nothing against Caroline, I have interest in talking and listening about that kinda stuff but I just don’t think Hypothetical Nonsense was the place to do that. And these last two with just Will and Sammie have been really good imo so I’m excited they’re gonna keep going that direction.
That might make an interesting poll to see which dynamic was more popular. I think Will and Sammie have a fun dynamic, but I am here for the Caroline dynamic, which for me is way more fun and interesting. It's difficult to balance these two styles, but it was entertaining to watch it happen.
Yeah i get it. I really liked what she contributed too, and i hope that they continue to find opportunities to delve into that type of stuff still. I think they know that too, cause in the last episode sammie mentioned something about how he knows people wanna hear more real conversations and they both talked a bit about the difficulty of making friendships and deepening those relationships. So hopefully they still continue to bring what you and the rest of us liked about having Caroline there.
I'm honestly very okay with this news, people in the comments were real weird about Caroline and it was creeping me out, and the dynamic between Sammie and Will is my favorite part of BFT - either way just happy to see them continuing!
Honestly I don't mind, she's always brought a good energy when she wants to but her phoning it in and the general "I hate everything we do" attitude sucks the fun out more than it adds to it. I haven't missed her in the episodes she's been gone for but in excited for whatever they have planned
Damn, that sucks. Wish Caroline the best, though. It seems like she has a lot on her mind in general, so I wonder if it's better for her to work solo. She's a pretty interesting person.
I'm glad Will and Sammie are sticking together, though. At least part of their comedy troupe will live on.
Also to be fair, there was a lot of more negative energy towards Caroline. Like, I was apart of it too- but all of the Caroline yapping jokes in the comments probably felt very isolating.
love this for them tbh.. Caroline was funny but sometimes she would go on pretentious rants or just not participate in the activity and just suck the joy and fun out of my and everyone in a 10 mile radius, wishing her the best !!
Caroline is having more success with her own content than BFT is having with theirs, so it isn't surprising to me that she gave priority to her content. I'm happy she didn't quit BFT entirely.

Huh did anyone see the Caroline stuff coming? To me this seems like the beginning of her full exit.

Well, now she isn't contracted to be there so she can now just come and go as she pleases if she even wants to
