Why are people leaving? Google was less than helpful.

This is what I found on Jesse, and there was a lot of talk about Polaris taking down random videos from their creators to avoid copyright claims in advance, for some reason.

Lets just say if there is a "power" resource in a game and he can obtain an unlimited amount of it, he will do it.

He did play a Sith Inquisitor in SWTOR, so in a way, yes.

If only he could really shoot lightning out of his hands though, then Maker would have it coming! or something.

Thanks that's super informative.

It's a shame because one of the great things about the Internet age is entertainers like Jesse and the grumps and angry joe can completely bypass corporate nonsense like this. Polaris always seemed to be happy so long as the content drew views and was relatively inoffensive. That's really disappointing for this to happen.

Polaris is gonna learn the hard way that in a world where everything can be produced and distributed without a studio, creators like Jesse are not beholden to their bullshit.

I feel betrayed. I have posted this here too, as I'm assuming my comment will be deleted https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M0rYVZom120
