    This channel needs to blow up because this content is almost as good as game theories. Please remember me when you blow up.

    Fun fact: Mojang, Minecraft's devs, put a crown on the pig on Minecraft's launcher, as well as a possible phrase "Technoblade never dies" on the game's main title screen

    The way that Techno’s fanbase all rallied around his father after his passing always warms my heart. We could have all just wallowed in our parasocial grief, but we saw a man who’d lost his son, a son who’d barely been allowed to be a man (Alex was only 23 when he passed), and we all decided to support him, even gave him the nickname Technodad.
  • One of the worst feelings is hearing one of your most beloved youtubers pass, rewatching their videos is always bitter sweet.

    I remember seeing the “so long nerds” video 2 years ago. I hadn’t cried like that in like 10 years. It had such an impact on me. His famous phrase “technoblade never dies” was never meant for his physical life but for his legacy that will never die. This was a great video. Would love to see more videos like this one

    Don't forget that not only did Google tribute to techno, but so did Microsoft. The Minecraft Java launcher, for about 2-3 months after his death, the pig on the launcher had a crown on.

    Why does every video feel like Matpat is dying… he’s just working behind the scenes.

    What makes game theory so different from everyone else is that he’s basically a father. so many kids grew up looking at him play games or theorize about them, almost made memories with him. only wholesomeness comes out of that man. when/if dantdm quits, there’s going to be the exact same response. they both raised a generation.
  • The ending section with Techno, it reveals that he’s at this point the embodiment of “You may have killed the man, but you cannot kill the spirit/idea.” His influence was felt across so much, due to his skill, dedication, and overall care for anything he put his hands on. I’m sure when he was around, he was the greatest friend to have. And to this day, there’s still tributes to him, as he deserves. He shouldn’t be forgotten, ever.

    That technoblade section hits hard man...so long Techno
  • “So Long Nerds” might be the only video on YouTube I have ever fully cried on. I started watching him so long ago I don’t even remember. I watched him for so many years, from the very beginning. Nobody was more fun to watch than him.
  • @Bunny_Bill
    Damn the techno part made me cry. I wasn't even subscribed to him but he was just so influential

    If EDP would have gotten the Chuck E Cheese job he would become the real life William Afton

    The techno bit about made me cry. I was at a summer camp and I came back to see “so long nerds” had been up for a day. I clicked on it thinking maybe he was taking an extended break to deal with his illness, but as soon as I saw his dad in the chair, I knew what I was about to hear. It’s a lesson to me to live my life to the fullest, because I don’t know when something could happen to me. Technoblade Never Dies!
  • @Ruii.Ruicha
    the fact youtube even made a video about techno definitely says something about the impact of his death
  • @nardsxc7010
    If you're sad about matpat being gone think about it like this, instead of being the star actor of the film he is now the director, because that is exactly what happened, he's not gone like he quit, he's just gone like off camera gone, because he's behind the camera directing the videos

    with jenna, a lot of us didn’t forget what she had done, but we saw how genuine her apology was and how she wanted to better herself and we moved on from it.

    For Dream, what went wrong with the face reveal was probably more to do with his faked speed run controversy with the Minecraft community. It created a massive crack in his reputation and created a grumble of discontent. The face reveal was merely the catalyst that allowed for his general audience to complain rather than his face being… disappointing? (It’s usually weird for face reveals to go wrong.)
  • I never really watched techoblade but the actually made me tear up. Having such an amazing personality to where you have zero haters (besides trolls) and show love to everyone. He set a bar that i dont think anyone can reach or even wants to reach. Rest in peace
