      I think what most people didn’t understand originally (because his essay was 40 pages of yammering) is that DarkViperAU isn’t concerned with “fair use” at all. He thinks that anyone who reacts to an entire video of his is technically “stealing his content”. He has zero respect for all reactions no matter how good or bad. To him there’s no difference between someone like Jinx (the guy who used to literally just watch) and someone like Papa Gut who does a lot of commentary. Which I personally think is kind of ridiculous because reactions are a huge part of the online content machine. 😊So I’m glad you explained it all properly in your video.

      In brief I think he has a point about someone like XQC or Hasan basically stealing content while others are more transformative.
      I think the big problem for dark viper is that he is so autistic and monomaniacal in his focus and extreme in his responses that he becomes deeply unlikable and irritating making people disregard his point out of hand.

    I wish youtube would bring back the old response video linking feature they had and repurpose it for reaction videos. They could also use that feature to do some sort of revenue split between the original video creator and the reactor.

      They apparently removed it because bimbos would reply to the video and add nothing but their boobies.
      I reckon these days though, they don't want to further enable commentary channels.

  • @Christian-jg9vv
    @Christian-jg9vv 3 місяці тому +24

    I think DarkViper is right about some things. The reaction videos that XqC and Hasan do are lazy and don't add anything to the original video. I think Viper should focus on those type of people instead of people like Destiny or Cr1TiKaL who actually add to the original video. Almost everyone agrees that Hasan and Xqc react videos are bad but when you go after Destiny or Cr1TiKaL it seems weird because they almost always transform the content and add to it. I think going after lazy reactors rather then all reactors is the best move. It also doesn't help that Viper has been involved in very odd drama in the past and seems to be a lonely person. Having friends in the real world is very important so you don't become terminally online and freak over small internet issues. He should also stop making hyperbolic comparisons because it doesn't seem to help the conversation.

    • @Lazrael32

      the problem is Viper seems to only care about himself. He may reference smaller channels, but they are just a tool to get him what he wants. He has no people skills and has no interest in working on himself it seems. He made an online echo chamber where he is THE authority, and can't understand why it doesn't work anywhere else. He might have a good point here or there, but his own actions and words, when combined without self reflection will never let him get a win. at least that's my opinion.

      It doesn't matter if you are the best reactor in the world if you don't heavily edit your video you're still stealing someone's content people like asmongold is dangerous because he's seen as"one of the good ones" so reactors can get away with stealing people's content. Either heavily edit it or just don't upload it in youtube at all.

    i personally would never watch by myself the things u react to because i’m here for your personality. Yeah i need to be interested in the topic you are talking about but that doesn’t mean i would ever watch it by myself because i don’t find them entertaining, even if i’m interested. Something can be interesting but the way that is presented being boring. On the other hand, if i casually stumble across something that i find interesting and notice that is from someone that i’ve already seen from one of your reactions, im much more likely to give it a chance, and it happened before. In my case at least, u are taking away nothing from others because i would never have watched that thing in the first place, and u are adding that chance that i’ll see something form their channel if something look interesting

      thats pretty wierd and parasocial to need some internet figures personality with you whenever your watching a youtube video.
      also, your a rare case. not many people are like you so your personal experience wont speak for the majority. Just because you like it doesnt justify it. Your enjoyment isnt more valuable than a content creators income. Theres takes in this video i agree with, more specifically the ones directed towards darkviper as a person, but on the arguemnt of reacto content, he has nothing of value. The only reason he believes react content is okay is because thats his income. He cant admit hes stealing other creators hours of work so he can eat too.

  • @private755

    I know this is old now but something I don’t see mentioned is that when the reaction channel I watch mentions a creator often the algorithm will start recommending other videos by that creator to me in my recommendations feed. They aren’t the same videos that the person watched but the algorithm does pick it up and sometimes I subscribe because I’m more familiar with their content due to the reaction channel.

  • @justfitz08
    @justfitz08 3 місяці тому +3

    I thought your suggestion that react content is becoming a partial replacement for the socialization problems created by the internet had some merit.
    But when you started on your "that's just the way it is" arguement, you lost me completely. I could easily argue that, of course, people will often find your resct content more interesting than many original creations. You specifically select for content that is already interesting. Even if your reaction was minimal, the original work could still carry a ton of creative heavy lifting for you. When you do this over and over, your channel becomes a greatest hits hot spot, at least on certain relevant topics. So why would people even bother to search elsewhere for this type of content when they know you'll have almost all of it for them in one place? And even on the off chance that one of your reactions doesn't pop, oh well, onto the next thing. It only took you about an hour to bang it out anyway, often 1/50th of the time it took for the original creator (in some cases even longer).
    It sounds like the same kind of argument anyone who profits on exploitation would use: "Oh well, sorry, that's just how it is. What do you expect me to do? Stop reacting? Sorry, never gonna happen. Benefits me too much. Maybe you're just butthurt that I'm simply a better youtuber than you."
    I would suspect that if asked to stop doing this style of react content, and instead watch videos before hand, edit out relevant segments, write a script, and respond that way, you couldn't. Once you've made your bag through exploitation, it's almost impossible to stop.

  • @pakapasiti

    I use react streamers as a secondary algorithm. Almost all of the content creators that I watch on UA-cam were discovered through react streamers reacting to some of that persons content.
    I also frequently watch a video that I like and then see if streamers reacted to it to see how they liked it and what the audience reacts like.
    React streamers let you be a part of a community enjoying a piece of content together and let you feel like you can engage with it on a level beyond just basic consumption.

    Darkviper acts entitled to other’s opinion, acting as if he has the authority to control how other people think. He’s always so highly blinded by his emotions that he’s unaware how much damage his actions have created. It’s like he’s unaware of the skills/lack of skills he has. This blindness mixed with his entitlement fuels his victim mentality the strongest. It’s as if he still hasn’t learned that the more he tries to hold onto things, like sand in the palm of your hands, those things will slip from between his fingers. It’s kinda sad honestly

    Viper comes off like an unhinged terminally online redditor, but many of his arguments about react content are internally consistent.
    He covered virtually every base when addressing his distaste for the react meta. He may not be wrong when saying that youtube would be a better, more healthy platform without reactors. But as it stands, until some fundamental youtube rule or legal change occurs, it's too tempting to make it. It's easy, low effort content that pulls in viewership by the boat load.

    I mean, the entire crying out about reaction channels is kinda stupid (I would've used harsher wording, but YT is looking)... the percentage of the videos I watch through reaction channels that I would normally watch otherwise is so low, it's literally almost not there... I'm not watching this video for willy mac or darkviper, I'm watching it for papa G. I frankly don't care about the video context other than the commentary and subsequent humour that is offered through it.
    It does happen that sometimes, I'll go watch the original video instead, like I went to watch SPACE KING seperately from nuxanors reaction to it because I thought it was a really funny video and I wanted it without the pauses/commentary... But I'm not a willy mac fan (not to say I think he's doing bad content, he's just doing content that isn't for my demographic naturally speaking) so if papa gut hadn't done this livestream/video, then I would've just lived on without knowing this video even existed. It's literally a non-factor. It's not subtracting anything. If anything, I know a content creator I like supports another content creator - and if that's seen as anything negative or positive, it only really gives me reason to consider willy mac in the future. Even if I've already decided on his content strategy not being for me.
    Edit: that got rather lengthy and ranty, I hope it didn't turn into completely incoherrent rambling... Gonna try and spellcheck it later.

    You could not choose a less meaningful thing to get butthurt over.
    "Why does no one want to play with me?"
    Oh, idk maybe cause you're the type of guy that would start fuming over "go fish"
    I get League, Valorant, or Dota. Those have ranks. You're expected to play good to not drop off.
    But... Among us?
    There's no way you take a silly social lie game THIS SERIOUSLY & think other ppl would want to play anything else with you

    I get sponsors are important, but FUM is literally a 90 dollar metal tube that you suck on. I shouldn’t have to tell you why it’s a dumb scam

      90 dollars is a lot for what it is, but it isnt really a scam unless it doesnt help curb an addiction. I havent looked into any reviews though so idk.
