Look man, I'm not a subscriber but I am a regular viewer for like 3 months now. I watch you for your excellent skills in risk and great insightful commentary. I don't care if you take 2 weeks to upload, just as long as it's good content. And yes, you do overthink. Way. Too. Much. So take it easy, enjoy it as we are, and keep being healthy and lively :) P.S. hope you fix whatever's worrying you IRL🎉
@@CGPlays hey man I've been watching for a couple months and have watched every single video you've released since then, if you need a break then take a break man :) I don't know if it's rude to suggest getting a therapist or not so I'm sorry if this offended you, but I think it's helpful, and it may help with your overthinking! I overthink pretty bad, sometimes to quite irrational extremes and therapy has been helpful for me though it isn't always for everyone it's also not free unfortunately... Have a nice day CG! Hope I was somewhat helpful. If not, sorry this was probably a bit of a nothing burger read.
I'm very happy with this kind of content! I mostly like your videos as background noise, with a small video playing in the corner. This kind of chill, medium-low energy hits that perfect blend of a coherent thing to follow and occasionally tune into while not being stressful or demanding constant attention to follow. Obviously, do what you need to do for you but be aware that a lot of us enjoy just hanging out while you play a casual game or two!
Watching you play risk makes me feel exactly how you do when you play CG! In life lots of things happen, especially nowadays, but just sitting back and enjoying a good old risk gameplay let's you fade out of your hustles and bustles that take place in your everyday life
PLEASE play more of that garden game I loved it a lot, it was chill af and very fun, 1 hour videos of this game I would watch them till the end without pause
When someone asks "Why", can you reply "Why not?" - If you no longer enjoy a game, it is better to stop playing it. If it becomes too much of a chore, you will not create a good video either way. So it is better not wasting your energy on that game in the first place.
i get the waves of depression too and this will absolutely sound overused, take an hour or 2 out of your day if you arent to sit outside and soak up some sun, its incredible for your mental imo. but hope things get better, been watching your risk content for wind down and sleep lol, def a comfort youtuber for me. thanks so much for what you do
@@Indian0Lorethe game does nit work like that you lose more troopd the more troops you attack wuth for example 4vs1 the macuim you an lose is 1 but 30vs1 you can lode more
i appreciate the videos u make cg, you should just record whatever you feel like recording, dont stress too much about what would provide the most content
before i took my break, i could barely stand to watch myself as i edited videos. i feel you SO hard on how mental health can just drag everything down. ❤
Hey, just to add to my comment on the last video I think you should also add your second channel more CG plays to either your descriptions in the video or you could put it under the more channels section of your UA-cam channel. And then you could post your variety accountant over there to see how good it does with a new audience. or you could make a new channel and do the same thing good luck with everything going on with the channel and outside of the channel
As a viewer, I definitely do *notice* what kind of place you're in mentally, but it doesn't actually make the content in any way worse. If I had to give one 'complaint', I would say that you're more irritable and self-judgmental at those times, but you're still perfectly entertaining and charismatic, and I personally enjoy it when I see you play a game while worn thin and find it genuinely fun. It's also perfectly reasonable to be tired or worn out or burnt out from this whole mess. You said you're doing 50 to 60 hours of work a week? The average job is 40 hours, and there have been a lot of discussions around if even that is too much. Also, as someone who works from home with no scheduled hours, I definitely also feel it take a toll knowing constantly that I could be working. I could be making money. I could be doing *more*. At that point, burn out isn't just expected in the long term, it's nigh inevitable. So you looking to give yourself some space by recognising when you're tired/stressed and accommodating for that sounds quite reasonable in maintaining a healthy work-life balance.
what a great game, gotta love the triple kill. And honestly i watch your videos less because of the game and more because you play the amazingly, would love to see you play more games, would be fine to watch you if low energy
Hey CG. I noticed you're overthinking a lot. Many youtubers usually take a break for like 1 or 2 weeks. I wont be bothered by that if it makes you feel better. Also i mostly like your content because of the voice and commentary. Hope the best for you
It's been 6 months from this comment since you posted this & felt this way. I hope you're having better days!! Love your content & you seem like a great person. Smile. It's probably a beautiful day outside & if it's not we still woke up to see the world today! Stay strong. That goes out to everyone that needs to hear this. 🤍🌻
Permission granted to feel this way & express it. At least on my end man. You don't need anyone's permission but it's awesome you took your viewers into account about the way you were feeling & being self aware about it possibly affecting your content. No one's perfect :)
I played a capital conquest recently and someone was set up in the bottom like how you were and I was in the uk area I ended up getting second I think but the person who was playing for south Europe got annoyed with the time and full attacked me making me lose
you do variety, please, for your sake, do low energy, it really does help to just relax some days, you can still do things, but you dont have to put a ton into it, plus, you're who i like to watch as like a "chill out" youtuber
Idk why but whenever I see a good player in one of cgs vids I just wanna go sweat some risk for no reason I'm a beginner and move faster than the average player and I'm on phone
CG youre overthinking again mate, just have fun playing the games and the viewers will enjoy it, about the energy you're right, if you didn't point it never would of picked it up.
"Some days I have low energy and depressed. Everyone's like that from time to time." Not according to my psychiatrist. Apparently the majority of people don't have lulls like that where you're so sapped of energy you can do anything.
Hi, I've been spam-wathing your videos since a few days ago and gotta say, your documentary and amazing thoght proccess got me to download it ^_^ As someone who has a lot of stuff happening online, day in and day out, I'd recommend you allow yourself to *not* make videos during designated times of your day, if even more an hour inbetween filming, bc you my friend sound like you're burning out rather quickly. It's hard to balance things in life, but you'll be able to get to your goal if you pace yourself more evenly 🫂 Idea: get your newer series into smol clips on shorts, that way the algorithm will recognize it sooner! You can make longer filmings into smaller videos and make seasons too 😊 If all else fail, just make a 2ndary account and yeet all the different games there, so it reaches a new audience easier. I hope this helps you!!

Keep up the vids. Just upload whatever makes you happy.
