How did i watched that ffVII video of yours about just one dude being salty and another one losing all of that spare time, the things i end up watching.. still pretty cool videos
Dude, take as much time as you need. Those are seriously heavy life-changing ordeals that you had to deal with. The most I've ever had to deal with was kidney stones. I can't even imagine dealing with all that you had to go through. It's nice knowing that you're okay though.
After your sly retrospective my man, take all the breaks you need to make sure high quality content like that goes out consistently, seriously man we love you
B 2018: Damn, I gotta make that Spider-Man video B 2019: Damn, I gotta make that Spider-Man video B 2020: Damn, I gotta make that Spider-Man video B 2021: Agghhh, my eyes, kidney, big fart, new home, getting fit! Still, I gotta make that Spider-Man video
I'm sorry you had to go through all of that, it sounds like an absolute nightmare. I'm happy that you're doing better now though, and I can't wait to see what videos you have in store!
Jesus H Christ. Not gonna lie dude. I was worried because you were pretty quiet. Just thought that you were dealing with your eyes like you had mentioned last time and thought "Oh that must have slowed him down".... You had to get your eyes, your jaw AND your freaking kidneys?! And you ultimately shook the medical field go their core? Christ man I am so so sorry that you went through that and I'm elated that you're on the mend and you're starting to go to the gym and feeling better. I mean, I related to you from this because my years been vaguely similar to yours. My own visions went to absolute shit (genetic issues). I'm now negative double digits and can't actually see all that well. And I started getting retinal migraines which literally blinded me (Temporary blindness when you're crossing a road is fucking terrifying). And I also had surgery in terms of Wisdom tooth removal and I fainted after the surgery. So.... I absolutely know where you're coming from, am elated that you're on the mend and I seriously hope you're continuing to get better mate. And admit it, that Marvel video is just a cover for a Richard Elson appreciation video where you tell people to read Sonic the Comic via Morbius the Living Vampire.
Ugh. I had a rough wisdom tooth removal as well. That is no fun at all. And I also had a major surgery during COVID. It sucked so much. I'm glad you're doing better now. Looking forward to seeing what you'll be making next. But please don't feel compelled to rush. Health comes first!
Vision problems can be super depressing even if they're not very serious. There's just something about not seeing the world "properly" that is inherently distressing. I obviously have nothing as bad as you, I have a fairly light prescription for shortsightedness and an astigmatism in one eye and my prescription hasn't changed at all in the last eight years which I'm happy about. Thing is, I first realized my vision wasn't right during a lengthy period of unemployment in my early 20s, so I couldn't afford to do anything about it for like six months and of course once you realize your vision is bad it's all you can think about and you just want to fix it. Even KNOWING that once I had money again I could just go get glasses and everything would be fine it made me super fucking depressed. I can't imagine the uncertainty of "is this even a thing that can be fixed." Glad you're on the mend.
That sounds like you've been through quite a lot this back half of the year. I'm glad things are doing better for you now though! Hope your recovery continues to go smoothly as well!
Yikes man, glad you are doing better now despite all the shit that hit your fan this year. Do you think you can join Shammy and them on their podcast to share some of those comic store stories? It would be awesome to hear you on it, and it sounds like you got some great stories to bring.
I never comment on anything on here, but I have to tell you this: I have gotten into the habit of watching your Sly Cooper-series once every Christmas (Sly and Jak are so damn Christmassy for me), and I have to say it is the best critical review/retrospective I have ever watched, read or listened to. You've got a gift, for sure.
Trust me, sh*t happens and I'm just glad your taking care of yourself. Both sides of my family have Glaucoma and I can also attest to the need for pre-emptive screening. Have a good holiday break. There are honestly few people on UA-cam who I think can do quality video essays and I'm glad your still doing them.
Sounds rough on top of rough on top of rough, buddy. The closest thing I ever had was impacted wisdom tooth on one side, and TWO wisdom teeth (of different type no less) on the other.
I am just happy your doing better. Your content is so rare because of the quality alone. Plus you have a very soothing speaking voice. I look forward to all of your work no matter how far apart.
I was going to make a sarcastic comment in the vein of "B-Mask Lives!", but considering the near constant state of medical malady you've been in, it does actually seems surprising you're alive. They will pay.
Your FF video is one of my favorite YT videos ever! So glad that you're recuperating and looking forward to more videos soon. Horary for universal healthcare, I suppose!
The Crash Bash loading screen music court me off guard😆! Well done for being able to have a sense of humour while talking about the shit you have been though.
So i haven't watched it but apparently you went through a rough patch. Just wanted to send you good wishes for now and maybe i'll comment more in depth later Good luck with everything
Are you saying that 3:54 is not normal nighttime driving? As someone who had enough eye operations that the doctor said there was no tissue left to work with before starting the first grade and then two more after that without getting rid of the issue I sympathize. While I don't have keratoconus (I've got strabismus) any light on eye conditions is good. Best wishes going forward.
glad to hear you're doing better man! your FF video really made me a subscriber, would love to finally see your comics guide for those guys once you're back into the groove of things
Man sorry this sort of stuff happened to you happy your better tho ! Also on a side note have you ever considered doing a rayman video ? It's one of my favorite game series of all time and it be so cool to see your opinions about it ! Take care :)
i was wondering where you went, i just started watching you a year ago and i watched a bunch of your stuff so every few months i would go and check if you had uploaded something, i was hype when the mando video came out
It's almost like we were living the same life cept instead of my eye I randomly woke up with uvulitis and couldn't breathe for a while. Sorry you had to deal with that B, I wish great health on both of us and I hope you have a great holiday and great break as well.
Take your time dude, as much as you need, it's holiday season after all, I'm sorry 2021 has been hellish to you, I can relate to that feeling, and hope this next year things will be a lot smoother. Really curious about that marvel project of yours, especially with how you've been hyping it up, and looking forward to the psychonauts 2 video, it's a franchise I've been meaning to get into for a while, so this might be the final push I need. But again, everything in its proper time, relax for now, and work on your health.
Glad you are feeling better, but you should still take some more time to rest. You went through some rough times and I want you to be at your best when you decide to return.
Holy shit, dude! What a constant stream of craziness! I'm glad you're back, but take your time with everything for sure. You're consistently my favorite channel for pumping out content that I'll always watch even if I've never heard of it before just to hear your thoughts on something. Again, super glad you got through all of that.
Just wanted to say that I find you really inspiring. Started getting eye problems almost four years ago from one day to the next and even thought it was keratoconus and got it tested (sadly costs around 150€ in Germany just to do that). Since then I've had several tests done and my dactors believe it is caused by my TMJ which is caused by sleep apnea that I didn't know I even had until a few months ago. As a content creator myself trying to go full time it's good so see someone going through something similar trying to be positive and actively do something. Because as you probably know, being uncertain about your health and if or by how much it's ever going to get better/worse is pure depression fuel. Really hope your vision will improve as much as it possible can and that new procedures can someday take you the rest of way.
Sorry to hear about your medical problems, I'm glad you're doing better now. Considering your situation it's absolutely understandable why you took this long to upload content, and I don't think any fan of yours has it against you. Very much looking forward to your Psychonauts 2 video regardless of your position in it. PS: I did like your old thumbnails, but the Mando one is also cool
So sorry to hear of everything you've been through with your health this year. Really glad you're on the mend! Congratulations on your new apartment and your gym progress!! Merry Christmas Eve xx
I’m so excited for the future of your channel! You’ve been through so much and I could not be more excited for your new stuff (especially the guardians video!)
Now you have me worried about my eyes... Time to see an Optom! But glad to hear your on the mend, really excited to see where you go and what you put out in 2022! Enjoy your Christmas break 😊
I just came back to the channel to rewatch your video about Sam & Max and was shocked to hear all the stuff life has thrown at you this year. I'm glad to hear that you're recovering and have had some good things happening in your life. I look forward to seeing more of you around but until then, take care and take it easy.
I'm going to be honest; my own problems with vision and wisdom teeth are now giving me more anxiety but to be fair, you did warn us in the beginning of the vid. Plus to hear that you're doing much better now is a great relief! You take ALL the time you need for yourself, your finished products always make themselves worth the wait! ❤️
Glad you’re doing better, at least in some regard. Been watching a bunch of your older vids and I can wait as long as it takes for you to be comfortable and happy with your work. Stay safe and healthy and take your time. I love your work and am super excited for what comes next.
Oh boy, similar year in hospitals and I feel ya. Love your content, love your getting back into things at your own rate. Merry Christmas and best luck 🙂 Cheers to next!
What you went through was really a lot and it must've been truly awful. Glad to hear you're fine now and doing better :) And of course take all the time you need to enjoy the holidays and come back when you're ready. Your wellbeing takes precedence over videos
Ooof. That does not sound like fun. I've had eye infections stop me from doing anything for like a month and it was enough to make me super paranoid about anything that might happen to them again, so I can't even imagine what this must have been. Well, glad you're better now at least, and I wish you better luck for this next year. I wish all of us better luck for 2022.
you are one of the only people to make me hyped for any new video you put out regardless of the subject. found you through your sam and max video and it actually got me into that series with it now being one of my favorites. eagerly anticipating anything you put out from here on
I'm glad to hear you're doing well again, all that stuff sounds like it was a real bother. And I'm looking forward to seeing your videos pop up again. Mando was a cool video!
Damn, that's a lot of shit to go through in one year. Glad you're feeling better, looking forward to your next vid.
How did i watched that ffVII video of yours about just one dude being salty and another one losing all of that spare time, the things i end up watching.. still pretty cool videos

After your sly retrospective my man, take all the breaks you need to make sure high quality content like that goes out consistently, seriously man we love you
still hoping to see a video on thieves in time though :)
I had a disability arise for 9 months this year that ruined my life basically. I feel you B. Take care od yourself bud.
B 2018: Damn, I gotta make that Spider-Man video
B 2019: Damn, I gotta make that Spider-Man video
B 2020: Damn, I gotta make that Spider-Man video
B 2021: Agghhh, my eyes, kidney, big fart, new home, getting fit!
Still, I gotta make that Spider-Man video
I'm sorry you had to go through all of that, it sounds like an absolute nightmare. I'm happy that you're doing better now though, and I can't wait to see what videos you have in store!

Sorry to hear what you've been going through with the eyesight problem, do whatever pace suits you.
And also, *FISH PEOPLE*

Glad you're on the mend.
Glad it sounds like things are on the mend for ya, B-Mask. Hope you have a happy holiday and we'll see ya when we see ya next!
Just when the fish people needed him most, he returns.
FISH PEOPLE
Man. Body and genetics are a bitch! Glad you're getting better. And props on you for the awareness. Get well soon and Merry Christmas.
That sounds like you've been through quite a lot this back half of the year. I'm glad things are doing better for you now though! Hope your recovery continues to go smoothly as well!
Yikes man, glad you are doing better now despite all the shit that hit your fan this year. Do you think you can join Shammy and them on their podcast to share some of those comic store stories? It would be awesome to hear you on it, and it sounds like you got some great stories to bring.
How do you spell the eye condition you have? I have eczema around my eyes and I want to tell my eye doctor to look into it at my next checkup
Dude take all the time you need to get better don’t stress yourself out! Get well and happy holidays!
Damn my man you have several years worth of life in one year, glad you're recovered/recovering.
God you have so many problems but you are still working hard hat off to you
Never forget to take care of the B- Man behind the B- Mask! It’s the only one you’ve got!
Next year will be better to you, I promise!
Don't be sorry for not putting out content, man. Take all the time you need. We all love you bro
Nothing remotely to apologise for, boss man. Easily my fav UA-camr. God rest ye, merry gentleman!
Your Mando video got me to watch it and I'm glad I did
Sherry, Mask? Take all the time you need with your videos. You're the Frasier of video essays.
That sounds incredibly rough, but I'm glad to hear that after all that your health is improving (or at least no longer actively deteriorating).
Take it easy man. Your videos are always a treat
Welcome back! Glad that you are and I hope things get better for more and more.
I never comment on anything on here, but I have to tell you this:
I have gotten into the habit of watching your Sly Cooper-series once every Christmas (Sly and Jak are so damn Christmassy for me), and I have to say it is the best critical review/retrospective I have ever watched, read or listened to. You've got a gift, for sure.

Sounds rough on top of rough on top of rough, buddy. The closest thing I ever had was impacted wisdom tooth on one side, and TWO wisdom teeth (of different type no less) on the other.
Damn... I'm glad you're feeling better! Happy holidays man. Also : FUCKING JAZZ JACKRABBIT MUSIC? YES PLEASE
I am just happy your doing better. Your content is so rare because of the quality alone. Plus you have a very soothing speaking voice. I look forward to all of your work no matter how far apart.
I need Marvel Restropective
Was literally doing some work on the script today- hope I can get it done for you this year bud!
If you could use some thumbnail inspiration, I highly recommend thorhighheels
First time in years since I've heard B-Mask's voice. Remember you from the days of Cheshire Cat Studios and I'm wondering: DID YOUR VOICE GET DEEPER?!
Glad you're doing well. Waiting to argue with you about spider-man. Happy holidays.
I was going to make a sarcastic comment in the vein of "B-Mask Lives!", but considering the near constant state of medical malady you've been in, it does actually seems surprising you're alive. They will pay.
Please Stay strong bro 🙏🏾 praying for a healthy life bro you are an amazing person 🙏🏾
Your FF video is one of my favorite YT videos ever! So glad that you're recuperating and looking forward to more videos soon. Horary for universal healthcare, I suppose!

You're fantastic four video was enough to hold me over until your next video

I'm glad you're doing better, buddy. Cheers.
Dude I wouldn’t put it against you if you disappeared for years, this shit is crazy
That was a series of unfortunate events back to back. I don’t mind waiting a while for content so take your time 😊
endlessly mad about fish people but always end up glad they’re around
Yeah, sometimes an illness just blindsides you and fucks up your life.
Man sorry this sort of stuff happened to you happy your better tho !
Also on a side note have you ever considered doing a rayman video ? It's one of my favorite game series of all time and it be so cool to see your opinions about it !
Take care :)
So sorry you went through all of that. I am happy to hear you are doing better. No need to rush your marvel video. Take your time.
i was wondering where you went, i just started watching you a year ago and i watched a bunch of your stuff so every few months i would go and check if you had uploaded something, i was hype when the mando video came out
It's almost like we were living the same life cept instead of my eye
I randomly woke up with uvulitis and couldn't breathe for a while.
Sorry you had to deal with that B, I wish great health on both of us and I hope
you have a great holiday and great break as well.
I'm looking forward to what you produce in the future.
13:10 Please make videos about the people described in this video it would be hilarious
Hey I’m just glad he’s ok. I was thinking maybe he died
Take it easy and get well man, seriously that's really really harsh.
Take your time dude, as much as you need, it's holiday season after all, I'm sorry 2021 has been hellish to you, I can relate to that feeling, and hope this next year things will be a lot smoother.
Really curious about that marvel project of yours, especially with how you've been hyping it up, and looking forward to the psychonauts 2 video, it's a franchise I've been meaning to get into for a while, so this might be the final push I need.

Soldier on mate, if you can get through all the shit 2021 threw your way than 2022 will be a walk in the park

Why didn't you switch your kidney and eye?
We love you B-Mask. Move at the pace that you need to man. Recuperating after a hectic time’s only natural.
Whoa gosh that's a lot to go through and makes me wish Healthcare in the US was like it is in the UK
Hey, it’s been almost a year! How are your eyes now?
I hope you're feeling well man
Probably the best video you've made.
This is on par with my year.
So glad you’re ok!!! Take care of yourself!
Merry Fishmas B-Man.
Good luck bro! Crazy year, but big respect to you for moving forward through it all!!!
I'll be looking forward to your next videos!
Good to know you’re doing better buddy 🙏🏻

Жду Психонавтов.
Can't wait to see your next video about the Thunderbolts!
Best of luck on your road to recovery and personal project endeavours
Good to see you back my dude, enjoy your holidays and take as long as you need. Heck, we can wait a bit longer for regular videos to return lol.
I'm glad to hear you're doing well again, all that stuff sounds like it was a real bother. And I'm looking forward to seeing your videos pop up again. Mando was a cool video!
