  • Just a quick update... figured I'd get this out of the way before moving forward. I can't thank you guys enough for the supportive comments and crazy amount of likes that my last video has gotten. They truly, truly mean the world to me.
    Edit: I now have a Patreon / lazypurple

    It's hard to summarize the thoughts and feelings of three years. I lost my creative spark when Valve stopped supporting replays, and I couldn't get on my feet again.
    I never saw a dollar that my channel generated, and I was too young to understand how much of an opportunity it is to have an audience as great as you guys. I hope I can make it up to you by trying my hardest.

      @Crosshill 6 років тому

      honestly lazy, you should maybe think about why it takes so long, i think other creators managed to get more videos out more frequently, even with editing. i dont know the first thing about it, but i think the first step to reviving a channel would be finding better ways to edit it, so you dont burn yourself out. maybe there's someone who has great advice or whatever
      take care my dude, ill go on a spree of your old content

    You were literally one of the two channels I used to just- grind every single video out of. aprox three to four years ago, I would used to watch it secretive in class Just to die of laughter seconds later, for example. Your video's are a piece of work, it's top quality stuff and it left a very good impression on me. As a fan, i'm telling you, Just don't stop making vids. I would love to make these times memorable with your videos. Oh, and welcome back. :)

  • @einsteiner311
    @einsteiner311 6 років тому +310

    Lazy let me just say, you were one of the magicians. Back in the day when tf2 was hot shit and everyone loved the whole hat community, there were a few people who pulled something out of the game that we never could. A refreshing sense of fun that inspired others to try the tactics and usually fail at them(although succeeding was highly rewarding). You were one of those people. From the music backgrounded replays of different classes, to your voiced birthday shananigans I loved it all. Even the side stuff you did on sleeping dogs and deus ex. When you left us for a few years i was kind of disappointed but i understood. With valve not supporting replays it became a lot harder to create the some of the stuff which made you great. Though your channel still existed, your servers were still running, so i kept hope. I am so glad that you have returned and unlike so many of the magicians haven't turned your back on tf2. I love you man, keep doing what you're doing.

    Don't know about other people, but I'll be sure to stay here and watch your content no matter the game.
    Good luck, Purple, and I sincerely hope that you can make it work out.

    And since I'm asking, what other games DO you play right now? :) Again, keep up the good work and keep making it fun for you! If YOU are having fun, I'm sure it will come across in your videos, and we will love it.

    It'd be unreasonable for anyone to be mad at you; depressive slumps of self doubt can be the worst thing to happen to anyone who likes to make things. I can sympathize easily with a 3 year hiatus. But regardless, your content is genuinely entertaining and very obviously made with care and attention to detail. I look forward to seeing what you make over the next 6 months, and if you need help creatively, in-game, or with just motivation - you know exactly where you can turn.

      Learning the ropes, and exploring a game as vast and endless as TF2 for the first time is just a magical experience...
      And the community, the TF2 gmod and SFM videos, the memes, the wonderful community servers....
      TF2 is a timeless masterpiece indeed. :)

    When I first subscribed to you, I saw your It's Raining Men video and I aspired to become as skilled as you. Three years later, I have racked up 3 thousand hours with positive results: I've been learning from your style of gameplay, along with a combo of other TF2 players, but the main goal was to be a great soldier like you. I can't really market garden via rollouts like you can, but I have been practicing and I just want to thank you for being there. I was patient: I didn't forget you. I waited and waited for more videos, while knowing that you had a busy life. No...*WE* are grateful for someone like you to be back. This truly is a holiday for us. Thanksgiving moved three days early, I guess!

    I have to say you do create some of the highest quality content on youtube. Your video about TF2 being a timeless masterpiece was a masterpiece in itself, never seen such great editing. Glad to see you are back and are putting so much effort into your videos. I think any of us can relate to the unmotivated feeling, I'm sure almost everyone gets it at some point and it makes total sense how it would hinder your ability to make videos, especially when it needs so much creativity, that is the hardest thing to do when you have lack of motivation. We all understand LazyPurple, and I'm pretty sure we are all glad you are back :D

    you might wanna stream if you want my recommendation. you could stream an hour or two every now and then to help you out while you work for quality videos.

    • @sumofalln00bs10
      @sumofalln00bs10 6 років тому +27

      I recommend this too. Although streams aren't the place to show off quality it is the place to share a community. You could have video editing streams where people can see you during the editing process.

    • @Archimo
      @Archimo 6 років тому +4

      tbh he could do anything at all while streaming just hanging out with people and have the donation feed and whatnot open. Just as a side thing while he works on quality stuff.

      ACTUALLY! No, I don't think you should stream! Streaming is easy, like *way too easy.* When I started using OBS, I got complacent and killed my motivation to make quality videos.

    Welcome to Lazy Purple's channel. After three years of taking a break, IT WAS WORTH THE WAITE

  • @Veptis
    @Veptis 6 років тому +265

    Here is a catch for you.
    Overwatch is less accessible then tf2 just on the price basis.
    And a big chunk just know it by watching people, like Muselk fans. The minority plays it themselves alot, or tried it.
    So some jokes might not work when you don't play it yourself.
    I personally prefer tf2.
    It's most important that you enjoy the think you do. Dot get burnt out by doing too much editing and forcing yourself to a schedule of videos. This happens to often.
    I don't know about others, but don't become a stream - please. It's far less effort to do a stream, you get more content and probably more money as well.... But it's less accessible, you could lose some viewers due to timezones becuase nobody is going to watch a vod.
    Your videos have to possibility to become timeless masterpieces, like the legendary STAR videos.
    If you feel like it, you could split your videos, not 50/50 but a fraction. Do a weekly video where you just show up and talk, like the time when berry made his story show and bring your quality releases every few months, when ever you are ready.
    During the writing and editing of a video, those weekly updates can help you to get feedback and a conversation with your viewers an might be a vital part of your production if you put up a few questions or a poll to the comments for data.
    And adding a video to talk about the reactions a few days later, like this very video is one of the best parts of some UA-camrs.

    • @lawrencebermudez

    • @DigiveeMHF
      @DigiveeMHF 6 років тому +1

      Overwatch arguably has a larger playerbase than tf2 currently. Its done by blizzard, and everyone knows blizzard makes good shit, its well established in the competative scene, it gets updated often, it gets people to keep playing.
      The big problem with tf2 is that updates, while good almost every time, take months, even YEARS to make. The yeti set for the heavy was made in 2014 for scream fortress, to get an idea.
      While tf2 is more accessible, overwatch is more sustained and groomed by its dev team.

I don't think I'll ever have a reason to stop playing or change to a different video game. thank you for being my inspiration, I really look forward to more uploads!
