My opinion on Jay

I have been a fan of Jay since 2014, never missed a video. So before anyone starts, I have been a hard core fan of his but I'm just giving my thoughts for the off chance he sees this reddit or anyone else agrees with me.

Over the years, Jay has made a handful of videos talking about wanting to do better with his content, being the best he can be as a creator, etc etc.

What confuses me is that his actions never match his words. I have never gotten over him not finishing Pheonix Wright or Persona 5. I specifically enjoyed his Persona playthroughs and was extremely excited to watch him complete the 5th installment of the series but to my disappointment, he failed to finish it and didn't give any explanation.

I am a content creator myself, and I know first hand what it's like to get burned out and unmotivated at times. Jay has also mentioned having a short attention span which I can also relate too.

In my perspective, it's not the lack of motivation or the short attention span that bothers me. It's the fact that he cares more about getting demonitized on Youtube (Not making any money from his videos) than actually listening to what his audience wants!

I firmly believe that Jay cannot be the best he can be if he is constantly ignoring his audience's feedback. He will never be the breakout Youtube star because to me, he simply does not care about his fans/supporters.

I would be lying if I said I didn't feel neglected and viewed as a dollar sign to him, rather than a loyal fan of 10 years. For him to constantly talk about the money he wont be able to make off of a video rather than just playing for fun and for us is what makes his previous videos about wanting to be the best he can be so contradicting.

The fact that he deleted so many nostalgic videos that myself and many of his fans loved because they got demonitized is completely ridiculous to me. There was a point in time where Youtube didn't pay creators anything to create videos and thats when we had true, authentic content! Now everything is about money, even to go as far as to private and delete videos over not making any money from said video instead of caring about how your audience would feel about that decision only further proves my point.

Also, for those who might say "Unsubscribe and unfollow if you don't like it" "It's his channel". I will never unsubscribe from Jay, even though he has his flaws he has been my go-to comfort person and I'm thankful that he hasn't completely quit like the rest of the OG Youtubers. Also, I don't think giving constructive criticism as a fan should be seen as a bad thing, some people don't know that that are doing something wrong unless someone else points it out.

I want nothing more but for Jay to grow and flourish online and offline, there's absolutely nothing wrong with growth. Hopefully he sees this and if not, I hope who sees this can also add to the conversation and give their point of view as well.
