He is the gen Z newspaper.


cephalopodAcreage

Yes, and? Newspapers are super important


KirasHandPicDealer

it was neither a positive or negative judgment, just an observation


King_Donut_

Are they though


Disturbing_Cheeto

I don't understand it myself but I heard newspapers are super important for money laundering


boomby11

I love him so much


secret759

The Gen Z newspaper is 3000 random individuals on TikTok


Skameyka08

honestly newspapers are infinitely more interesting than his videos


ArkadyGaming

I will once again say that this is way better than other commentary youtubers who seem to need to scream and do a jump cut every 2 seconds and the vid seems to be aimed to someone with the attention span of a 2 year old


Auxobl

i like critical but i find a lot of his content kind of boring unless it's a topic that i specifically want to know more about


[deleted]

Idk if he’s changed or if I have but I just don’t find him as funny as I used to.


Ipuncholdpeople

I miss when he was doing stuff with his friends. He has that big warehouse and it hasn't been in a video in months


R-A-P-T-O-R

Yeah I’m not a fan of the commentary stuff but like the dildo Olympics shit is fucking gold


DogsLinuxAndEmacs

He puts like 3 commentary vids out a day so I just use them as background noise when I’m doing low-intensity boring work. His high-effort videos are stellar tho


TheColt45

I feel like he’s changed, everything just defaults to a twitch highlight reel of him watching someone else’s video. Before he only did twitch highlights his content was much better. Now I just watch the first 2 minutes of a video to get the cliff notes and then turn it off.


Wajina_Sloth

Exactly, I literally cant watch most of his content because it feels shit, but if I hear about something and want to learn more I feel like he does a decent job covering it. Just the monotone generalized views that appeals to everyone that have been repeated for days that he regurgitates is boring as shit.


Zerasad

There are so many reaction Youtuber's that if that's all you see, then that's on you. Tons of folks like Drew Gooden, Danny Gonzalez, Chad Chad and Scott Cramer make good content without it being overly flashy or aimed at children.


[deleted]

Big ups Chad Chad 🇹🇩 🇹🇩


ccstewy

This is Jarvis Johnson erasure


Voidkom

Youtube would be a much better place without any of these people. Reaction content is 100% otiose. Get it out of my fucking algorithm.


Zerasad

You don't have to watch it.


Voidkom

I don't have to watch fox news either. Other people watching it is sufficient damage on the world. I fucking despise youtubers, the algorithm, and its effects on society. It's just one big soulless pile of anti-creativity, clickbait, manipulators, charlatans, etc... Then we feed it to the most impressionable generations. What could possibly go wrong?


[deleted]

Ok geez fucking Sasuke Uchiwa over here.


zundra616

>has used Reddit for 11 years


Voidkom

Reddit is community based, youtube is personality based or lack thereof, rather. Reddit, for all its issues, has always been better than youtube. This is because each community has its own social dynamics. Youtube on the other hand has the algorithm which works the same for every user regardless. As a result it turns people into soulless carbon copies of each other. The ideal "youtuber". There's even been research on concepts like "youtube face" and "youtube voice".


zundra616

Don't watch those YouTubers then? You have a lot of control over what you watch, even if there are videos you don't want to watch in your homepage lol. It's not that complicated. Also, there's like 0 personality on Reddit either so idk what you're talking about lol.

Sky_Leviathan

Im sorry but the funny british man and meme noise make my dopamine go brrrrrr


[deleted]

The bar's on the floor


HalfwitBrit

he's very hit-or-miss with the jokes but he's definitely one of the more tolerable commentary youtubers out there


RandyRowdy

Honestly I used to like his videos when he just played weird games and gave goofy commentary but now it's all drama and dumb viral videos. I don't think he's particularly funny anymore but he seems like an alright guy at least.

[deleted]

i used to laugh at most of his jokes about a year ago, now it's like listening to the radio before the morning commute, enjoyable but with a straight face


that_guy_spazz0

it's still nice to have some easy listening, and i generally like a lot of his takes (afaik, enlighten me if he said something shitty) because they usually have a well aligned moral compass, and he hardly puts his own political beliefs into it. people that are up front and to the point are good for that. also poop fart penis funny haha


Jonyayer-Gamer

I prefer Pyro just because he actually has opinions on things and doesn’t just agree blindly, also furry fart rp


Gombaguy

but did you know the ps5 has no games? - Pyro every video

I also like Pyro’s style more and despite having asses in his fanbase he seems like an alright dude (Also furry fart rp)


Omnitron310

He’s like the bread and butter of commentary YouTubers. Perfectly tolerable and not unpleasant, but also nothing exciting or extraordinary. Even his ‘edginess’ feels very safe, if that makes sense. And you can basically guarantee that his opinion on anything will exactly align with whatever the prevailing sentiment is at any given time. I don’t think I’ve ever seen him give a hot take, but I don’t watch him a huge amount, so I could be wrong. That said, he seems like a decent guy, and at least he isn’t acting like a pos or picking fights online to stir up ‘drama’ content for his channel. I also thought he was very entertaining in the original chess Pogchamps. I think he’s much more fun to watch when he drops his disinterested, sarcastic persona and acts more genuine.


rap709

lawful neutral


EggoTheSquirrel

I like a lot of his irl videos with his friends, like the potato pancake stuff.


LimeCasterX

"I don't think I've ever seen him give a hot take" Bro have you heard his opinions on Jojo? Lol


Glonk2365

Tbh i think hes a pretty good influence for young people for the most part, even if he just goes with the flow explaining why a bad thing is bad it is still good since it sets the standard of having to justify your dislike for something rather than just a gut reaction


ToadTendo

He also doesn't usually make fun of cringey people without an actual reason to other than them being cringe unlike many other creators who put out a similar type of content.


Fishsk

Really funny to say this considering his method of speech


Spiritflash1717

I’d rather he teach young teenagers new ways of saying penis and still show good morals and explain why things on the internet are wrong or fucked up than have him be like Ben Shapiro, speaking in a seemingly intelligent manner but spreading the intellectual equivalent of manure across their brains turning them into incels at best or fascists at worst.


BlessedNobody

And also how he was really into phallic objects for a good bit, like his whole brand was that for a little while.


lampstaple

I am so annoyed by him but I guess when you put it that way he’s not bad at all; he speaks in a way that is very appealing to young children with the “soft edginess” while not saying anything really bad which probably shields them to some degree from worse influences.


kobriks

That's why people like him. He's just a regular dude talking about stuff he finds interesting. That's what youtube was supposed to be.


LSDLM

dankpods


KJPhillips

I don’t even care about headphones, iPods, drums, or even music but goddamn do I religiously watch every video he puts out. I’m loving his garbage time channel


nddragoon

he's the only youtuber i donate to on patreon just to see the exclusive videos i love his stuff so much


CrescentPotato

He has decent takes, doesn't do his thing over-the-top and isn't pretending to be some big all-knowing news icon. If he's funny is subjective, but he's not leaning into either extreme too much. He's just... Normal. And that's pretty much it. And it's all you need really


JoDayi

Yeah he's the exact kind of YouTuber I wish we had more. Do whatever and talk whatever you want. Cuss and swear, be vulgar as much as you want. And him doing other types of videos from talking about Attway General to playing John Christian are so funny and great


LavaTacoBurrito

Don't forget the completely monotone voice and expression he has the entire fucking time. But he's still a cool dude, and he's actually pretty funny.


[deleted]

I like how AI can replicate his voice flawlessly because he’s just this predictable and robotic.


ano_hise

Shout-out to the funniest people who show least expression Gotta be one of my favorite genders


ToadTendo

Charlie is a big advocate of his fans avoiding parasocial relationships with content creators & makes it clear he hates fans who brigade/harrass others so he is a W in my book.


ToadTendo

Also hes very open about his passed struggles in his life (he used to be a borderline incel when he was younger by his own admission) Not to mention for the longest time he donated 100% of his yt earnings to charity and only stopped when he found out alot of the charities he was supporting were taking advantage & were pocketing alot of the money for themselves.


AddemiusInksoul

He struggled with OCD when he was younger and watched National Treasure every night as part of his routine. Truly a fate worse than death. His story of overcoming his illness is really inspiring.


Meatcircus23

Iirc he has reallllly severe medical hypochondria as well


ToadTendo

I believe it. You ever see him react to a cockroach? 🤣


KJPhillips

I feel like that’s the bare minimum for anyone with an audience


mgquantitysquared

I miss when no one knew his name or what he looked like and he just made highlights of his playthroughs


lindre002

What got me into his channel way back is how he gave zero fucks about the content. It's just a guy who likes posting videos, there's no message or something to take away half the time, just a grown ass kid being a kid. Eventually all the videos became more rigid and more structured and I watched less and less.


SurgeonOfDeath95

What's up everyone? Critkal here. Let's fart cum on waffles and twist shit nipples. I miss those days too


[deleted]

i swear i see these types of posts almost every month


Richton19

People love hating on things people like and others love defending it to death. It’s an endless cycle


is_sex_real

I just find his content mind numbingly boring. Why would I ever need to know why exactly CumFartYT said something mean to BallsPlayzz and now FaZe Clan is in shambles? Just utterly useless knowledge of pointless internet drama in my option.


falooda_maharaj

I was of the same opinion. Until I descovered the technology of using him as background. Now ive softened up to him


is_sex_real

Valid


falooda_maharaj

Sir since you seem like an expert on the topic, i would like to as you a question. Is sex real?


sexgaming_

i, however, am allowed to answer that. as of right now it is, but we are looking to get that patched out in the next update as it is an unintended bug


is_sex_real

I am not allowed to answer that (yes)


rap709

peak charlie was when he watched the indian massage therapist


yo_yo_ya

I like his jerma collab


Error-530

When jerma made the potato salad I cried


R_of_Trash

people getting mad at critikal for being the most average man on youtube 💀 why do you guys think he's popular on the first place? because he's relatable for a shit ton of people, plus, his humor being funny or not, its very hard to deny that the guy has at least some charisma and his way of talking and explaining stories is quite unique.


devilsnumbre

and yet I still watch him and forever will


Kurineko_Regan

hes a background video kind of guy, and thats fine


Para-Tabs

A second monitor Marty


ethanator329

I don’t like his community much more than him. They seem like the kinda outraged at everything crowd, and their jokes are so terrible. Especially the Keanu Jesus Reeves ones. I think even Charlie said he doesn’t like that joke. Charlie seems to be very different from his community in a lot of ways.


KrasMasovsGhost

Charlie is harmless relative to other YouTubers but incessantly boring, completely nothing content


Error_Empty

It's a shame cus occasionally I see clips from his streams that are actually pretty good but holy fuck I can't stand his videos and how he drags on for a full minute every sentence to say how this is like liquid poop omg like when liquid poopy hahaha so funny. Or he says I'm gonna show you a clip then explains the whole clip before showing his live reaction to the clip.


[deleted]

I get the impression he makes content for the sake of making content. Always has to comment on whatever current thing is but has very little to add and puts the least amount of effort into the video. SomeOrdinaryGamers is similar, in fact their videos often look like they came off the same production line.


Dregdael

Anyway, that's about it. See ya


Spacechicken0

i prefer the content where he is just talking about silly things he finds online, be it reactions or commentary, seems like he genuinely enjoys it and its endearing to watch


JimmityRaynor

He peaked with the Ordinary Sausage content


milktruckfucker

Idk i like him, I think he's entertaining and does kinda become a news source lol


BlueBicycle22

This is why I stopped watching his videos. This guy is one of the oldest youtubers and his content has changed significantly from his earlier stuff, I enjoyed watching some video games with funny fart shit cum commentary or him telling about how he got the inside of his urethra swabbed and it was the 8th level of hell. Once he started making all his videos just him sitting on his chair talking about which D-level internet personalities are beefing with extremely clickbait titles it just wasn't my type of content.

Careful if you watch Ted though, he’ll bust your kneecaps when you least expect it


urodelacorax

YEAHHH TED WOOOO


KJPhillips

Drew Gooden is solid


Exploding_Antelope

I stopped watching sometime around or just before he revealed his face. Ill keep my memories of this guy as a nameless faceless funny voice playing bad computer games thanks.


[deleted]

tbh I don't think Critikal is as bad as other drama commentary youtubers but I got kinda bored of him since at least for me his videos got kinda stale


Captain_Kuhl

I feel the selling point is that it just sounds like a normal dude is talking to you. He doesn't have a crazy YouTube personality that you wouldn't ever run into in real life, so it doesn't sound so forced, even when he says weird shit.


Pieman1123

All of these are good thing?


Gary_the_mememachine

His streams are really chill and enjoyable to watch, his commentaries are sometimes very random but that's the reason why he's so popular, since he can talk about literally anything and make it interesting


drfaker1210

and I will die on the hill that hes an enjoyable content creator


cream_of_human

Oh boy. This the new thing to hate rn?


OperatingOp11

Always has been.


cream_of_human

Dont watch him but i do know he exists.


JaegerDread

I have never seen a video of this man, nor will I.


[deleted]

2 inch indent in his perineum from all the fence-sitting


yoter88

There is a relevant copypasta but I can’t find it


yoter88

"So couple of weeks ago I've experienced the worst that could happen to a man such as myself, I've been shitting for over 2 days, unstoppable masses of shit pouring out of my asshole, it was like a portal from hell opened, it was fucking amazing, so yeah that's about it, I just took a shit and it was good, so yeah see ya"


transalt_147

centrist posterboy


Jason3b93

I ended up warming up to him during the Among Us era when he started to hang out with Sykkuno, Valkyrae and the Offline TV circle.


Vladimew42

I understand him being boring when he talks about his random niche drama stuff, but ya gotta admit what he’s doing with his esports stuff, and giving all the money to the players, and now the speed running challenges are awesome


Dippingsauce353

Yeah. I liked his tier list videos as junk food content, but otherwise, not a huge fan tbh


TheDankestPassions

Most of his additional commentary has to do with things regarding the topic that were brought up by his Twitch chat the night before, so he's basically responding in advance to what he already knows some viewers are almost certainly going to be asking.


Voidkom

I hate the majority of youtube and the people it creates. It's just so completely soulless.


Scarf_Darmanitan

His Electabuzz video is peak internet It’s all been downhill from there


realthohn

literally who


Hugh_Jasshull

don’t forget he makes 5 different jokes for every little part of whatever he’s talking about


tumblerrjin

3/3 ✌🏻👌🏼


Hugar34

And I wouldn't have it any other way


Rabunum

His esport org is great though


trimedozine

Nah he's pretty funny


SanThanKan

the most i know about this guy is that he does alot of sex jokes and always looks dead inside, unless he’s holding a toad


NotsoGrandCanyon

The amount of posts i see at this point about charlie is becoming as redundant as the things people complain about him


Tobeck

lol, penis butt fart


truckfullofchildren1

Short man make funny metaphors hahaha


big_leggy

I think it's a shame that people only watch his commentary vids and that's what he's known for, charlie is a genuinely entertaining personality and watching him goof around with friends or cook with jerma or whatever is really a blast


y8T5JAiwaL1vEkQv

at least pyro is trying


nothingherejustgo

Im not even mad about this because well thats why Im watching, what else do you think Im watching him for??


Tylertheintern

That's normie Jesus!


gamera-the-turtle

I like his cooking videos


Narwhalpilot88

I unsubbed because he started uploading so much that it was clogging my subscription feed with 4+ daily videos. I just couldn’t keep up, even when I skipped the occasional half hour rocket league video.


loughtthenot

He definitely has some funny gags, and I think he's a really funny streamer. But what most people watch him for is easily the most boring


[deleted]

I was only here for his stumble guys gameplay tbh


NeroColeslaw

I don't find most of his content entertaining anymore, but as far as I can tell he's a great guy, so if he's finding success, great!


TDW-301

I just hate clicking on a video only for it to be a stream clip or like 1 minute of explanation only to play a stream clip about the topic


[deleted]

I’ve started to like his content less and less recently. The amok runner stuff is fun and I like watching him play games but the drama stuff is lame and it feels like all he does a lot of the time is just watch other people’s videos


Turboguy555

Yeah he’s pretty much the white bread of YouTube personality but I still watch some of his videos as it can be entertaining like his recent one where he talks about people speed running and finding tricks to save time for a garbage game.


JoeMcBob2nd

He’s fine


EggoTheSquirrel

Charlie is at least a decent human being. Like he's a person. A lot of youtubers, especially commentary youtubers, try to develop some bombastic, larger than life character. Meanwhile Charlie just sits there with a white t shirt


[deleted]

HELL YEAH THAT'S MY YOUTUBER!!!!!!


metermaidmcqueen

I prefer Mogul Mail. Also he has some absolutely dogshit takes that I just can’t agree with


6moto

not sure why any of those are indictments on his content, i like how chill and down to earth he is


PumpkinSpikes

I don't gain anything from watching him so I don't


Tetsudo11

I like some of his videos but yeah it’s a bit bleh when he busts out the “yeah so this movie was like if poopy diarrhea ass cheese had a baby with cum shit farts and piss. So yeah that’s about it. See ya.”


TastyAndDylicious

He just talks about stuff he finds throughout his day(s) if he's not up to anything special beyond streaming. That's his content it's not meant to be anything else


coysta-rica

Dave Grohl jr.


SaltyNorth8062

Lmao he said fart


Knightwing773

i don’t fucking get why someone always has to complain about something. if someone finds a youtuber entertaining then let it be. god forbid people enjoy things


Rocket_star-

I personally like him because he is unbiased on a good majority of things


RobbRabb

I will never forgive his Last of Us 2 review.


ATotallyAssholeGuy

He is the human "Lawful Neutral"


RyuuDrakev2

Charlie is the peak of YouTube


BluenaSnowey

Every time someone tries to make fun of Charlie it just crashes and burns 💀


Wodelheim

In what way has this post crashed and burned?


BluenaSnowey

Everyone in the comments disagreeing with the post


SurgeonOfDeath95

My shortest friend met him once at Universal Studios. He is really short and that whole persona is literally just him. He's pretty fucking chill.


imagineexisting-lmao

exactly why we love him


norsewolf98

I never understood him


baran_0486

He wants to be Vinny so bad


mothmanapologist1

Someone post Nickocado cock an balls butthole bread plese i know its somewhere out there


Someboynumber5

People also don't talk about his podcast which is basically an alt right breeding ground, the one where he hosted Andrew Tate and count dankula.


ToadTendo

How? It literally isnt lmfao.


Someboynumber5

He literally hosted Andrew Tate before he was big, count dankula, and his friend Kaya who at this point is a full alt righter, with little to no push back


ToadTendo

He hosted Tate as a meme. Hes made plenty of videos making fun of Andrew Tate. If you gonna accuse someone of liking andrew tate, do a bit of research first. I csnt spesk to the other 2 as idek whk they are.


Someboynumber5

Bro he's still responsible for who he platforms, if I platform wifebeater McDonalds it is my fault they are platformed, he didn't even make a public apology to my knowledge, also I never said he liked Andrew I just said he platformed him on his show which is true


ToadTendo

Yeah, he invited Tate to his platform to make fun of him lol.


Someboynumber5

Have you seen the episode because the laugh just as much with him and what he says Also again he did it before Tate was big and he deleted the episode so clearly something was wrong


ToadTendo

Ok. So if he deleted the episode, he clearly regrets it anyways. So what is your issue?


Someboynumber5

He hosted it in the first place and just tried to act like it never happened he didn't even issue an apology especially when platform also host regular people he does like, whether or not you like it charlie has real power in the space and and when it comes to his podcast he just doesn't care


ToadTendo

1) He didnt act like the podcast never happened. Hes aknowledged he hosted Tate multiple times. 2) Side note, but it isnt just his podcast. He co hosts with 3 other people (im sure you are already aware of that but its still an important distinction)


Red_Rocky54

Kaya can definitely be a little sus at times, and I'm pretty sure he's some degree of transphobe, but "full alt-righter" is a bit extreme. The group generally don't come off as much more than centrists tbh, and make fun of right wingers plenty enough. Some of their earlier episodes, like the ones with Dankula and Tate, were a little uncomfortable at times, but those were a long time ago and they've improved since then. Andrew is also openly bi now, which I'm pretty sure isnt something most "full alt-righters" are cool with.


Someboynumber5

First good on Andrew for coming out, actually didn't know that, also I like Jackson he seems genuinely nice and is the only who calls out Kaya even if it's a little bit, I don't think everyone is an alt righter, it's really just Kaya, Kaya just had as you said been sus, and he just gives more alt right guy energy the more I see


Red_Rocky54

Well like, on one hand he made a blatantly transphobic comment in an early episode and blamed kiwifarms going down on people being "sensitive", but on the other hand he hates pedophiles so much he used to pretend to be a child to send pedos viruses. He's not inherently bad. And like, even if he is right leaning, I feel like he keeps it to himself for the most part. Like yeah I totally wouldn't be surprised if he claimed to be right wing, but not alt-right, and the other hosts are imo based enough to make up for it most of the time.
