    As a Jake Baldino fan, I learned of you and your channel through the FPS Podcast. And since the podcast lives on your channel, my algorithm naturally started feeding me your videos, and I couldn't be more grateful. My Watch Later playlist here on UA-cam is always full of stuff to, you guessed it, watch later. But when I see a SkillUp video drop, it is always my top priority to watch it as soon as possible. You are truly a master at your craft, and I love everything you and your team does here.
    Although I'm relatively new to the SkillUp fam, I'm so proud of you for hitting 1 million. You may be thankful for the fans, but I think I speak for a lot fans when I say we are just as grateful for you and your dedication to your channel.

If you like the more podcast / freestyle format I’d also recommend Laymen Gaming that he did with his brother, it died when he left as naturally SkillUp carried it but some of the reviews and news videos were really good content with a nice bit of banter mixed in. I frequently go back and watch videos from a few years back like on Anthem & Fallout 76 just to get a really good barometer for where things are now and how things have changed (or not).

    Congrats Ralph, you are legit one of the best game reviewers on here. What I love about your reviews is that regardless if I agree with your opinion of the game or not you always do an excellent job of putting in context how you got to your conclusion/opinion/score and is a pleasure listening to you talk about those games. When I found your channel I really didn't like the longer videos, I was used to and actually still prefer to watch 10 to 15 minutes reviews. Yet somehow you managed to become one of my favorite game reviewers and one I always look forward to hearing talk about a game (I was bummed you didn't end up reviewing BG3 but I understood when you explained why). Also when you started doing these Week in Videogames video they immediately became one of my favorite videos to watch every week, back when they would drop on Tuesdays I knew I had a good video to watch during my break or lunch at work.
    Even the FPS podcast is the only 2 hours plus podcast I listen to, if a video or podcast is longer than 1 hour or so my chances of watching it full decrease by a lot. But I'm here for your content I'm excited to see what else you have up your sleeve, so far you haven't disappointed

I hope you never lose this passion and I wait for the day that I see your team hosting your own game awards (or at the very least, being a larger part of future gaming). Thank you.

    I don't do comments, but this one is special for me and for you. I started watching you in your division days, at the time where you were a channel I watched because I wouldn't bother check every vendor each week. I appreciated what you did, but I didn't love it.
    Then you made an announcement, you said : "Hey guys, I don't wanna do this anymore." I though this was ballsy and I wanted to see what would happen next.
    Now, over 7 years later, I watch every video that comes out not because I'm bored or I wouldn't bother checking on reviews myself or reading/watching video games news sources, but because I truly love your way of doing it, your style, your content.
    This is one of many comments but I'm glad I stuck around and I hope you are too. Many thanks.
