To be honest, every Minecraft UA-camr before 2015 has most likely: 1. Die out. 2. Had Drama that made them look very bad. 3. We just grew up. 4. Actually Survived.
EggsAreMeh * I know but it’s not the same pat kinda replaced Jen with eleni and they both should go there separate ways bc if they don’t they’ll end up sad there entire life cuz they don’t know how to interact with each other there no the same anymore
I think I started watching them a while after they hit 1mil subs, but I stopped after their divorce as I realized I was only subbed to them because of how much I *used* to watch them
Watching the early stages of Pat's career just brought a smile to my face, just for me to remember his inevitable fate. This guy was literally my childhood, I feel terrible for the fate of the channel.
Me too and it’s good that Jen has a kid now but it kinda feels like all that was just a dream because both of them are just gone now having their own lives
I remember the smile he used to have that said to the audience “I’m happy because I love what I have and I love making you guys happy” that smile was when he was with Jen. I’m sure that same smile will come back, but who knows when it will? I’m still supporting him after the Eleni controversy that just started on Instagram and stuff, but this makes me even more concerned for Pat.
He's been through a lot. Especially for a girl who even had the guts to manipulate him just to be famous. What hurts me is that he just says "I'm alright"
It’s super sad how Pat’s situation got 10x worse in just the 2 years after this video was uploaded… His life is literally going through a downward spiral.
And to this day, he still makes videos and tries to connect with his audience, giving them the best performances he can give. He's honestly a really great guy who built my childhood, I can't help but feel so bad for him after all of this
All us teens are coming back to defend him tho lmao. As a 19 year old, I can say I havent watched him in a while, but I came back right at the breakup. And now I'm helping by putting my support on the table for Pat. Eleni- ugh, not even gonna say anything.
Elena doesn't deserve Pat. She never did. I'm glad they broke up. I think she just used him for views and subs. Makes me sick to my stomach just thinking about it
Imma be honest, popularmmos was why I started exercising and playing sports, and made a cringy YT channel (I'm sure most of us had that one). Pat seemed to have so much joy in his life and it made me happy a happy 9 year old. Good times, screw highschool. It's also kinda funny he's a huge buff guy who likes cats.
@@Ixe2077 oh no. I lift too much to give a crap about a woman. Dumped my only GF so I could practice my guitar more without her nagging me about my amp being to loud over face time.
I know I am very late to comment but who else almost cried when watching this. They were a huge part of my childhood and many others as well. So sad to see how their life changed so fast.
Even though pat didn’t want kids, he and Jen both helped raised 17 million of them. Edit: Some of y’all need to chill, I didn’t steal this comment from anyone, and if you think I did, how about you tell me where?
I know they broke up they still make vids together your sad for yourself. But pat and Jen broke up. If anything you should be sad for them. But they are still happy and for a fan that all that matter!
To be honest, he probably doesn’t need the money from his channel as is. He could probably live out his life with the money he has but I feel really bad for him with the things that have been going on. This guy shaped me as a kid and he shouldn’t be getting hate for trying to move on. I want the best for Pat and I hope that he comes out happy and not like some other people who have hurt themselves because of a toxic online community.
I’m sure he’s made plenty from UA-cam and probably still makes decent money, but if the divorce was messy or there were issues with the division of assets (since Jen definitely has a right to some of that theorized six million dollars in UA-cam money), he might be worse off than we think. It might even be a big part of his growing stress and worsening mental state, unfortunately :(
@@katiehass5980 actually he has like 30 million plus so even if gen got a good chunk of it they both still have a shit ton of money plus his videos are still doing 800k-1 million views.
It's actually heartbreaking to see that his first marriage didn't work out, his second girlfriend turned out to be just a drama fest, he got arrested (I've heard twice), and now if you look both he and Jen haven't posted a video on either of their channels in almost a year. This might be the biggest abandoned channel I've ever seen.
None of them deserve hate. They’re not harming anybody, they’re just staying with who they’re happy with and separating from who they’re not happy with.
BorealisBoy69 while I agree with the sentiment the channels backbone is pat and Jen together not separately for a lot of people. Tbh they were much stronger than the sum of there parts. So when the divorce happens and they still made videos together it just doesn’t hit the same for a lot of people. I never grew up on popularmmos (was never in the popularmmos/stampylonghead camp for Minecraft. Was more into Jerome/captainsparklez/ssundee stuff.) but as someone on the outside looking in I understand why the audience would be sad, confused and upset. No one deserves THIS much backlash but it isn’t surprising in the least.
While they don't deserve hate over simply wanting better personal lives, they do deserve criticism for stuff like putting "Ex-Wife Jen" in the title, not realizing how weird that is and how much of a sore spot it can be, then proceeding to act like its the community's fault entirely.
I understand people feelings though. When I heard Pat was dating someone else after their break up. I was uneasy. I guess I was not ready for them to move on and find someone else since I was little bit sad over their divorce. Though understand they have their lives and can make their own choices. I want them to be happy. Not the viewers.
it broke my heart when this popped up on my fyp because i was there growing up and saw this entire process happen, every video update, and seeing this summary makes it really hard not to cry because it’s so difficult to rewatch my childhood videos now :(( i’m really happy for jen’s life now, but i hope pat’s life looks up eventually,,
I felt like I outgrew him a while back and I disliked the direction he went for a while, but it’s sad to see where he went. It’s so upsetting to see kids who don’t understand divorce at all think that they know what’s best.
I kind of stopping following once he fell more clickbaited with videos, but I still respected him because it was one of those channels I watched when I was younger.
I know they broke up they still make vids together your sad for yourself. But pat and Jen broke up. If anything you should be sad for them. But they are still happy and for a fan that all that matter!
PopularMMOs was essentially my childhood. I would come home every day to watch his videos. I still remember binge watching his Epic Proportions series and I remember the exact video in which I caught up with the series. It really is sad to see what's happened to the channel over the past couple years. I suppose all good things really do need to come to an end. I'm glad I got the enjoy the channel in its prime. I'll always have those memories.
@@aperson.a I loved Ssundee so much. I loved his old content and how he basically made catchphrases and recurring jokes for himself. Now he just cranks out among us kids content. I also liked his intros and the music and how he was more soft-spoken back then. I’m a little bothered by how much louder he is now
@@Sterling-cn1fq I honestly agree wholeheartedly. I was a huge ssundee fan especially when he made cops and robbers, skyfactory (1-3), pokemon series, and trollcraft. I miss when he did content with crainer, the constant jokes Abt pen and paper, wheelchair, and especially derp ssunde. Now that all he gives out is among us content with different mods every day with nothing new I can't even bring myself to watch him without cringing heavily and reminiscing about how great he used to be.
The sad part is that he knows that his channel is going downhill, yet he still smiles through it all after all the shitty events he’s done through. He really doesn’t deserve it, he’s such a nice guy :(
This is... truly devastating. Their entire channel was everything to me as a kid. It’s not just that they played a role in my life or our lives, it’s that we the viewers are also important. I could feel that when Pat was talking in his recent videos, he was sad, stressed and other things like that. He’s in a deep time of need and we should be there to help him. Especially being in a time like this with a virus going around. It’s hard to believe that Pat and Jen are getting a divorce, after all these years. Those two were the people that created an even more fun life for his viewers. Most of us have grown out of his kind of content, but I feel it would be nice to kind of take a trip down memory lane, or just be there to provide emotional support in some way.
Pat is amazing for all the right reasons. He tries his hardest to entertain his fans without it affecting him. And despite his problems, he handled them by being a mature person. He didn't publicly cry about, but he publicly explained and apologized. He always smiles, laugh and manages to share that with people without him even knowing. Even with the break up with Jen. He handles it with absolute maturity and didn't cause a scene throughout the entirety of his career. Even Jen handled it like an absolute champ. Sure, both of them were great together and their decision to get a divorce was hard for them and for us, they tried their best to stay calm, collected and cool for everyone else. His target demographic is mostly for kids, yet ironically he doesn't like to have kids of his own. But beyond his knowledge, he has raised millions of us, and even though we have forgotten about him, we are more than thankful to be apart of his community
You gotta give it to him, the man is STILL playing Minecraft. Most people from his era have already moved on long ago, but he still sticks to the same game that literally made his career. I hope to be able to play one of his modpacks with my girlfriend so we can replicate that experience.
I feel so lost when I get reminded of these guys. Pat and Jen were like my parents for years upon years of para social interaction… and they never did anything to mess that up, we all just grew apart. I grew up, Jen wanted to start a family, Pat wanted to continue with his passion, and no one did anything horrible, no one cheated, no one embezzled, everything just faded…
It's the sad truth, but we can take comfort knowing they were both accepting of what happened and never pinned the problem on the other, remaining good and happy friends.
I will always remember the days I spent watching his Minecraft mod videos, especially the mob battles and lucky block challenges. This man was a good chunk of my childhood and I will forever be disheartened at how his channel, and he as a person, turned out.
I have been watching him since early 2014 when I was 11 years old. I'm 17 and still watching him and he is the only minecraft OG UA-camr that I'm still watching
I remember my sister showed me the video of them breaking up and at first I didn't believe it. I couldn't believe it. I was coming up with every excuse to get away from the fact that they indeed broke up. Fk its hard. Lifes hard.
when it was posted i was with my friend, al i said was "pat and jen broke up" and he was like wait what. i didnt know that watched them too but we were in shocked about it. ofc we made our jokes but it really hit us cause they were our childhood
I remember watching them since 2013, it was amazing, they got a little less motivated once they broke up, then Pat brought Ellie, (Elaine?) idk her name, don’t watch the videos with her, she just doesn’t have the same spark as Jen. But it’s not the same. Something just seems missing. When that break up video came out, I remembered so many things, the video where he introduced Jen, when they got married, all the amazing times they had together, just flooded through my mind. I actually started crying. 😔 I miss the good old days.
It’s not just that their channel ended that is sad… it’s that it ended it tragedy! Stampy just kinda drifted peacefully away while Pat’s channel came crashing down in a burning fire. After he broke up with Jen it just wasn’t the same and everything fell apart after he got his new girlfriend. Poor dude I hope him and Jen are doing alright wherever they are today.
@@samakiraroyjanssen6326 I don’t know any real detail about Jen or Elina being abusive but in may of 2021 he and Elina were arrested and both released on bond
Yeah with pat it’s nice kind and a chill dude but with himself alone I didn’t truly feel populermmos until Jen came to camera then we had funny kind heartfelt and just overall cute and fun to watch their bonding but it just slipped away into the mud of the downfall of populermmos
Yeah it was a mistake to include her into the channel. It wasn't a gaming channel anymore it was just some reality relationship channel like the Bachelorette and that set him up for failure.
No matter where he ended, that man and that woman were like another set of parents to me, they helped form my childhood Edit: thanks guys for 2k likes 🥺
If pat is going through some things now I hope that he finds something in life and can be happy again. Everyone does things in their own ways. I really miss him and I hope the best for him. I just really really really hope he knows that he was part of all of our lives so many of us. And I’m so grateful for him being part of my life.
Well duh it’s a divorce it’s not suppose to be happy or fun it’s something important that a lot of couple go through. We should be there for him giving him support instead of hate
FernandaIsMe what? i didn't give him hate! i just think that jen has been getting on with her life and is doing well while pat seems to be in some sort of a depression. i'm just worried about him, not hating.
BUT NOT WITH ELENI I STARTED WATCHING THEM WHE I WAS 5 NOW IM 12 WE WANT JEN BACK AND AGAIN ELENI DOESNT EAVEN NOW HOW TO PLAY MINECRAFT HIS MAIN GAME MINECRAFT ELENI DOESNT NOW HOW TO PLAY IT 😖
They don't sound like they're trying to be happy even though they're really sad/mad, so they are either really good at acting, or they genuinely broke up on good terms and didn't want this to affect the channel. I understand how awkward it is to watch as a new host joins a show after their predecessor was so iconic, but they all seem to still be good friends they don't deserve any of the hate they got.
@@uncivillotus354 1 it was a joke, and two, no one knows what goes on behind closed doors, and there is no need to try and argue that people do know other then the people involved
The most memorable thing for me about this channel was a series called something like "The crafting dead". I remember loving that series when I was younger.
@@hart.6230 yea I remember that one of his friends who plays a major part of his channel was convicted for sexual abuse against a younger girl or something like that
Dantdm, popularmmos, stampy, and squiddy were your parents who fully loved you. Dream, grian, Mumbo, and George were your stepparents who still loved you but never cared as much.
Honestly so sad, I watched him every single day for years on my tv downstairs in the living room with my brother, younger and older sister. We’d watch his old modded Minecraft survival series with Jen, and also his arena fights or mod showcases. It was awesome I remember watching them building the treehouses and also the classic Jen house, with the heart and the trees.
@@mayhulk7514 yeah its the same with stampy i cant get the feeling i felt when i was watching his videos when i was little but now when i watch him i dont get that feeling anymore......
This is going to make me emotional. Lucky block battles were the best! I would also watch them every day. If I having a bad day that wouldn't matter because I could always go watch another lucky block battle video. Now it's just not the same. I wish pat and Jen the best but damn their breakup hit me differently.
It's really sad to see the hate hes getting. His channel practically raised me and shaped me as a person. He doesn't deserve the hate he's getting at all. Even after Jen says she's fine with it, he still gets attacked by these toxic viewers. I hope that he can turn his channel around before its too late.
@@hunterst6321 I seen the comments. It was so bad. When Pat uploaded that video where he talked about the ex wife in title, people deleted their comments because they got caught and regretted it. It's just shows that whenever Pat isn't looking, they can get away with toxic behavior
He's been one of, if not the first English speaking UA-camr I've been watching regularly and he's been one of the reason I wanted to start making content for UA-cam. Thank you.
Ok y’all Pat and Eleni did date, but they broke up and now she is being mean to Pat and spreading hate. Soooo now people are mad at Pat. Edit: Ok so Pat made another vid. The Eleni problem just got worse Edit 2: lol he made another video
PopularMMOs is definitely a cemented nostolgic rollercoater for all of us. Most of us grew up with this as a part of our childhood. It was sometimes something we left but ocassionaly came back to, reliving the nostalgia. I don't know when I started thinking this but when Pat and Jen had gotten married, I got a foreboding feeling. I told my younger sister, almost jokingly, that it would be so awkward if they broke up. Looking back, I knew the reason why I stopped watching was that it got repetitive and that I was waiting for the shoe to drop. Those two looked and sounded so happy. I was quite pessimistic back then and everytime I thought about PopularMMOs, I always thought about what would realistically happen when they're not filming a video. It felt like a ticking time bomb, either Pat or Jen would give in and it would all collapse regardless. Ranting aside, it's nice to apprieciate the memories and joy we've experienced from their channel. Bittersweet, but that's life. It feels like another piece in growing up and moving on. I hope that Pat and Jen continue on with their own lives and are happy, best of luck to both of them.
@@mikaylakaylaa true,but it’s seems like when they do make videos together, it seems forced and a bit awkward, it’s obvious that they only make videos to appease the fans, and the magic of the channel is gone do to the fact that they’re videos together are a lot more forced.
Late to all this but these videos give me a strange nostalgia for an era I never really was a part of. Computer time was something earned in 5 minute increments at my parent's discretion so I rarely spent time on UA-cam when my limited time (could be as little as 15 mins a week if I was acting up) could be spent playing a game online. All the same, I feel for those who did get to enjoy the heyday of all these creators who helped build their childhoods. It's unfortunate how fast that period came and went for all of us.
He was such a genuinely great guy, literally he started off trying to help people find great games to play. He got screwed over so much and it's a shame since he seriously raised an entire generation of kids. Hope he does good in life.
It’s kinda ironic that you mentioned that they raised a generation of kids. Jen wanted kids and he didn’t, but in the end they were the fun parents to LOADS of kids
I had liked him as a pre teen, one time teacher wanted me to make a poem about someone i had idolized, i choose him, when i went to print his picture, the kid who used the printer knew the UA-camr and asked me, "you watch him ??" I said yes, now i can't even imagine his divorce
I’m going to cry myself to sleep tonight. This is actually the saddest thing I have ever heard, I never thought it would come to this, I haven’t been to their channel or watched a video of theirs in years, It’s sad to see them break up. My childhood is crumbling.
Bro I come from your time I am 11 but know popularmmo and stampstampylonghead and other stuff and the way I know because I was born in 2009 and watch this stuff and then I went away I know how you feel
I remember watching the channel as a kid. Then remembering it years later and having a look to see what changed and the first video was their divorce. Absolutely floored me
It is not fair for him he devoted his life to UA-cam but everything came crashing down on him I just hope one day he will become his old self again and get back with Jen even if it is just as friends
I miss waiting for videos of that one series with Pat and Jen with that one zombie apocalypse series (Edit) it was the Crafting Dead, it took me a bit to remember the name.
@@sloud471 i know, I just miss when i was a kid and i would watch them everyday. I'm not sad that they broke up, I'm sad that time went by too quickly. I miss his intros.
For some reason Jen's voice and energy is a lot differnt she isn't as talkitive as she was before so I do believe that it has changed Jen alot that's why I don't watch them as much
This dudes' Minecraft series was a big part in my childhood. It's pretty sad seeing the couple break up too. I knew his UA-cam channel would come to a end one day. That's just life.
I remember watching these with my cousins when we were younger. They were obsessed with Jen and Pat, and we bonded together in the time we spent watching. I haven’t thought about them in so long, and I’m so sad to see everything that has gone down and declined. These two are so nostalgic to me, and it hurts to see that special old part of my life fading. Seriously, I still have an old message from one of my cousins talking about a parkour video by Popular MMOs. I wish them all the happiness and prosperity they deserve, and I’m thankful for the memories they brought me and my cousins.
One important thing I feel you didn't mention was his viewerbase also matured and grew up. And how we weren't interested at the same things we were when we were kids, able to watch 30 minute videos without getting distracted by other things in life. I started to lose intrest even before the breakup or anything of that sort. The videos started feeling repetitive and we realized this.
Pat loved Eleni so much, but when Eleni didn't need Pat anymore she pretended that they were never together. And Pat definitely misses Jen a little, "Me and Jen never had drama"
This video almost made me cry because my childhood was defined by popular mmos and stampy and seeing both of the fall apart feels like ripping my childhood away
this actually made me sad like this channel was my childhood so sad to see them fall off i legit cried and i never cry to movies or any sad situation but like this is just heart braking
16:45 Ironic. He would date the woman who is now trying to ruin his life by doxxing his actual address and posting about a potential arrest on his head. Meanwhile, his ex-wife is the one coming to his defense, believing that he's being treated unfairly.
@@maxthecharacter1296 l loved this channel but stop watching bc I could him and Jen didn’t fell happy. Btw did he and that new girl break up if they didn’t they need to if this is still happening
@@ironmickXD I heard both of them got charged for a similar crime. I don't remember what it was, but it was bad enough to say that neither of them sees eye to eye anymore.
It really hurts to see the channel like this. These two were like second parents to me they made me laugh when I needed it and they were my image of my ideal relationship. When they broke up I tried to keep watching them bc I wanted to support them no matter what but the vibe of the videos just seemed off. I could feel this vibe months before the breakup video it was almost like an ingenuine feeling like they were hiding something. I don’t hate Eleni I’m sure she’s a nice woman but she feels like a replacement of Jen. And pat looks like he’s about to snap it actually kind of scary. I really hope he can get out of this and start to get the views he was getting before but with the way his channel is going that’s very likely not gonna happen.
Hats off to him for trying to stay professional. Everyone in his comments wanted him to crack on camera like other UA-camrs but he didn't good luck to him
I think I have come back to this video the most out of any of SunnyV2's video's, its just so well made and PopularMMO's was thee thing from my childhood that I would always just love. Pat and Jen's break up was the saddest thing to learn about from my childhood creators, same goes for SkyDoesMinecraft. Its heart breaking but I hope that they will one day find what makes them all happy.
Dude, Pat is a Good guy ngl, he Doesn’t Swear, He smiles all the time when he has webcam on, For a masculine Guy he is so pure. Seeing him smile even tho everything’s falling apart i can’t do that lol. I hope he will recover from all of that crap he’s been too.
Pat is a saint, he's not even mad that the channel is pulling less and less, he's always happy it seems, i hope he has a new spark and his Channel skyrockets again, best of wishes pat, best of wishes
If he brought back some abandoned series like mob battles and epic proportions it could sky rocket again, although the last time he did a epic proportions like series was playing modded minecraft upside down, and it simply means people wouldn't find it as fun so the 1st episode of it got over 1 million views but the second one only got over half of episode's 1 views and not enough likes to continue the series, I see mob battles skyrocketing their channel again though and if they do a proper epic proportions that could skyrocket too.
The big thing for me was while most every other minecraft youtuber would collab and merge so it looked like they were one happy community poppularmmos was always Pat and Jen. I aged out of them, having been part of the early crowd that went on to games like destiny. When I recently came back to watch them it was no surprise that things went downhill. Every famous person from my childhood has gone downhill with the exception of CaptainSparkles. The thing that kills me though is that Pat was clearly very happy to do youtube and he did it with someone he truly cared about. I think by the time they made the divorce public things had been sorted out and they were happy to be friends but the gf conflict caused problems.
It's so weird to watch people who primarily present with their voices try to present on camera. His voice says "energetic and excited!" but his eyes say "d e a d i n s i d e."
I watched this guy since I was a kid, I freaking hate to see him suffer like this, he doesn’t deserve it, having to sit here helplessly watching him slowly die really impacted me..but the fact he has the same smile in almost every video no matter the topic really shows, how strong he is (idk what I’m saying, can’t phrase properly.)
@@nope.7392 I have been here since early 2014 and the secret base mod showcase video is really what introduced me to modded Minecraft, and I can say that it is one of the things that kept my childhood from falling apart for as long as it did, I may not be in the greatest place now, but hopefully I can keep going strong
Holy guacamole this is by far the most requested video I've ever had, this is for all you fellas who were asking for it. Enjoy boys.
man like sunny
Hello
SunnyV2 they recked they’re brand by making it kid sentric
Hey man have a good day
To be honest, every Minecraft UA-camr before 2015 has most likely:
1. Die out.
2. Had Drama that made them look very bad.
3. We just grew up.
4. Actually Survived.
atleast it was a clean divorce, they seem to still be friends.

It felt so nostalgic because I recognised a few of the videos
his videos sometimes appear in my recommendation and they make me tear up because of what happened to him

People in 2020: *sad nostalgia music*
yes
I’m concerned for Pat, he does so much and after what’s happening to him he still has a smile, but it doesn’t seem like the smile we remember
I remember the smile he used to have that said to the audience “I’m happy because I love what I have and I love making you guys happy” that smile was when he was with Jen. I’m sure that same smile will come back, but who knows when it will? I’m still supporting him after the Eleni controversy that just started on Instagram and stuff, but this makes me even more concerned for Pat.
MGF tbh, he is in a shit situation..
now with the Eleni situation, things are slowly falling again.
He's been through a lot. Especially for a girl who even had the guts to manipulate him just to be famous. What hurts me is that he just says "I'm alright"

Fr I remember him being one of the youtubers I used to watch when I was young I feel bad man he dosent deserve any of this
Imma be honest, popularmmos was why I started exercising and playing sports, and made a cringy YT channel (I'm sure most of us had that one). Pat seemed to have so much joy in his life and it made me happy a happy 9 year old. Good times, screw highschool.
It's also kinda funny he's a huge buff guy who likes cats.

I know I am very late to comment but who else almost cried when watching this. They were a huge part of my childhood and many others as well. So sad to see how their life changed so fast.
It’s also sad since Pat hasn’t uploaded anything in a year
I was thinking the same thing. My childhood. The music doesn't help setting an even sadder tone.
:(
Yeah, I used to watch them every day for hours on end
I felt heartbroken 💔
Even though pat didn’t want kids, he and Jen both helped raised 17 million of them.
Edit: Some of y’all need to chill, I didn’t steal this comment from anyone, and if you think I did, how about you tell me where?
Underrated
True I'll miss em tbh
Thanks, now I’m crying...
tbh Pat and Jen helped me through tough times, when my parents fought, and I'm so thankful for that
I know they broke up they still make vids together your sad for yourself. But pat and Jen broke up. If anything you should be sad for them. But they are still happy and for a fan that all that matter!
To be honest, he probably doesn’t need the money from his channel as is. He could probably live out his life with the money he has but I feel really bad for him with the things that have been going on. This guy shaped me as a kid and he shouldn’t be getting hate for trying to move on. I want the best for Pat and I hope that he comes out happy and not like some other people who have hurt themselves because of a toxic online community.
I’m sure he’s made plenty from UA-cam and probably still makes decent money, but if the divorce was messy or there were issues with the division of assets (since Jen definitely has a right to some of that theorized six million dollars in UA-cam money), he might be worse off than we think. It might even be a big part of his growing stress and worsening mental state, unfortunately :(
He also has a degree in psychology i think a master
Katie Hass he has a net worth of over 30 million they were and are fine
@@katiehass5980 actually he has like 30 million plus so even if gen got a good chunk of it they both still have a shit ton of money plus his videos are still doing 800k-1 million views.

Fr bro if u played bo2 and below, madden 17, 2k16, and Xbox 360 with faZe. There is a lot more games but those were just good days
Ahh yes the office one of the most enjoyable shows ever made
It's actually heartbreaking to see that his first marriage didn't work out, his second girlfriend turned out to be just a drama fest, he got arrested (I've heard twice), and now if you look both he and Jen haven't posted a video on either of their channels in almost a year. This might be the biggest abandoned channel I've ever seen.
I thought he got arrested 3 time (the most recent being when he ran across the field of a Jacksonville Jags game)
I mean, Jen had a baby, so it makes sense that she’s focusing on her family instead of her channel rn :)
Apparently both Jen and his ex Eleni have said on Twitter that he was pretty abusive to them
@@dragonwings123456789 nah Jen didn't
he just made a community post
None of them deserve hate. They’re not harming anybody, they’re just staying with who they’re happy with and separating from who they’re not happy with.
Moon101 I agree with this so much, like god damn, it’s not your business who he dates and the choices he makes. Just be happy
BorealisBoy69 while I agree with the sentiment the channels backbone is pat and Jen together not separately for a lot of people.
Tbh they were much stronger than the sum of there parts.
So when the divorce happens and they still made videos together it just doesn’t hit the same for a lot of people.
I never grew up on popularmmos (was never in the popularmmos/stampylonghead camp for Minecraft. Was more into Jerome/captainsparklez/ssundee stuff.) but as someone on the outside looking in I understand why the audience would be sad, confused and upset.
No one deserves THIS much backlash but it isn’t surprising in the least.
Yeah they deserve to be with people better suited for them but unfortunately when they broke up it really hurt their channel
While they don't deserve hate over simply wanting better personal lives, they do deserve criticism for stuff like putting "Ex-Wife Jen" in the title, not realizing how weird that is and how much of a sore spot it can be, then proceeding to act like its the community's fault entirely.
I understand people feelings though. When I heard Pat was dating someone else after their break up. I was uneasy. I guess I was not ready for them to move on and find someone else since I was little bit sad over their divorce. Though understand they have their lives and can make their own choices. I want them to be happy. Not the viewers.

it broke my heart when this popped up on my fyp because i was there growing up and saw this entire process happen, every video update, and seeing this summary makes it really hard not to cry because it’s so difficult to rewatch my childhood videos now :(( i’m really happy for jen’s life now, but i hope pat’s life looks up eventually,,
I felt like I outgrew him a while back and I disliked the direction he went for a while, but it’s sad to see where he went. It’s so upsetting to see kids who don’t understand divorce at all think that they know what’s best.
Yea i kind of disliked the very childish content and roblox videos, I missed the old serious mod showcases and stuff.
We grew up, but we can be happy that there's a generation of kids still watching him.

PopularMMOs was essentially my childhood. I would come home every day to watch his videos. I still remember binge watching his Epic Proportions series and I remember the exact video in which I caught up with the series. It really is sad to see what's happened to the channel over the past couple years. I suppose all good things really do need to come to an end. I'm glad I got the enjoy the channel in its prime. I'll always have those memories.

I feel you man. (Don’t feel sad that it’s over, feel happy that it happened..)
@@aperson.a I loved Ssundee so much. I loved his old content and how he basically made catchphrases and recurring jokes for himself. Now he just cranks out among us kids content.
I also liked his intros and the music and how he was more soft-spoken back then. I’m a little bothered by how much louder he is now
@@Sterling-cn1fq I honestly agree wholeheartedly. I was a huge ssundee fan especially when he made cops and robbers, skyfactory (1-3), pokemon series, and trollcraft. I miss when he did content with crainer, the constant jokes Abt pen and paper, wheelchair, and especially derp ssunde. Now that all he gives out is among us content with different mods every day with nothing new I can't even bring myself to watch him without cringing heavily and reminiscing about how great he used to be.
Him and DanTDM were who I watched(I still remember the video Dan made talkin bout his name change from DanTheDiamondMinecart to DanTDM)
"Hey guys, it's Pat, and welcome back to another mod showcase!"
"Hey guyyys!"
Brings a tear to my eye everytime.
The Good Old Days, in a happier time atleast for me.
Ah yes the good old days
I wanted him to do the mob battles again! Those were the best videos to watch, anytime, anywhere.

This is... truly devastating. Their entire channel was everything to me as a kid. It’s not just that they played a role in my life or our lives, it’s that we the viewers are also important. I could feel that when Pat was talking in his recent videos, he was sad, stressed and other things like that. He’s in a deep time of need and we should be there to help him. Especially being in a time like this with a virus going around. It’s hard to believe that Pat and Jen are getting a divorce, after all these years. Those two were the people that created an even more fun life for his viewers. Most of us have grown out of his kind of content, but I feel it would be nice to kind of take a trip down memory lane, or just be there to provide emotional support in some way.
Can't say more
Shmooat Same,I used to watch them everyday when I was younger
@@JzJamin same
omg same
I can agree
Pat is amazing for all the right reasons.
He tries his hardest to entertain his fans without it affecting him. And despite his problems, he handled them by being a mature person. He didn't publicly cry about, but he publicly explained and apologized. He always smiles, laugh and manages to share that with people without him even knowing. Even with the break up with Jen. He handles it with absolute maturity and didn't cause a scene throughout the entirety of his career. Even Jen handled it like an absolute champ. Sure, both of them were great together and their decision to get a divorce was hard for them and for us, they tried their best to stay calm, collected and cool for everyone else.
His target demographic is mostly for kids, yet ironically he doesn't like to have kids of his own. But beyond his knowledge, he has raised millions of us, and even though we have forgotten about him, we are more than thankful to be apart of his community
We all are all feeling you bro, pat, stampy, skydoesminecraft, danTDM and a few other will always be regarded as our second parents/family

What makes it worse is that almost all his fans warned him about her..
You gotta give it to him, the man is STILL playing Minecraft. Most people from his era have already moved on long ago, but he still sticks to the same game that literally made his career. I hope to be able to play one of his modpacks with my girlfriend so we can replicate that experience.
I'd watch that
what i want fr

Yeah it hurts man knowing that someone you know pretty well and grew up with could be hurting it’s hurts more knowing you can’t doing anything

I feel so lost when I get reminded of these guys. Pat and Jen were like my parents for years upon years of para social interaction… and they never did anything to mess that up, we all just grew apart. I grew up, Jen wanted to start a family, Pat wanted to continue with his passion, and no one did anything horrible, no one cheated, no one embezzled, everything just faded…

Now Jen is pregnant so she started her goal (check her instagram if you want to see)
It's just really goes to show how time just has a way of fucking shit over.
It's the sad truth, but we can take comfort knowing they were both accepting of what happened and never pinned the problem on the other, remaining good and happy friends.

Just crumbled
I remember watching them since 2013, it was amazing, they got a little less motivated once they broke up, then Pat brought Ellie, (Elaine?) idk her name, don’t watch the videos with her, she just doesn’t have the same spark as Jen. But it’s not the same. Something just seems missing. When that break up video came out, I remembered so many things, the video where he introduced Jen, when they got married, all the amazing times they had together, just flooded through my mind. I actually started crying. 😔 I miss the good old days.
It’s not just that their channel ended that is sad… it’s that it ended it tragedy! Stampy just kinda drifted peacefully away while Pat’s channel came crashing down in a burning fire. After he broke up with Jen it just wasn’t the same and everything fell apart after he got his new girlfriend. Poor dude I hope him and Jen are doing alright wherever they are today.

Yeah with pat it’s nice kind and a chill dude but with himself alone I didn’t truly feel populermmos until Jen came to camera then we had funny kind heartfelt and just overall cute and fun to watch their bonding but it just slipped away into the mud of the downfall of populermmos
Yeah
Yeah it was a mistake to include her into the channel. It wasn't a gaming channel anymore it was just some reality relationship channel like the Bachelorette and that set him up for failure.
touched my heart, I remember couple years ago I would always search pat and jen because Popularmmos was to hard for me back then

PopularMMOs is definitely a cemented nostolgic rollercoater for all of us. Most of us grew up with this as a part of our childhood. It was sometimes something we left but ocassionaly came back to, reliving the nostalgia. I don't know when I started thinking this but when Pat and Jen had gotten married, I got a foreboding feeling. I told my younger sister, almost jokingly, that it would be so awkward if they broke up.
Looking back, I knew the reason why I stopped watching was that it got repetitive and that I was waiting for the shoe to drop. Those two looked and sounded so happy. I was quite pessimistic back then and everytime I thought about PopularMMOs, I always thought about what would realistically happen when they're not filming a video. It felt like a ticking time bomb, either Pat or Jen would give in and it would all collapse regardless.
Ranting aside, it's nice to apprieciate the memories and joy we've experienced from their channel. Bittersweet, but that's life. It feels like another piece in growing up and moving on.
I hope that Pat and Jen continue on with their own lives and are happy, best of luck to both of them.
Well put.

Late to all this but these videos give me a strange nostalgia for an era I never really was a part of. Computer time was something earned in 5 minute increments at my parent's discretion so I rarely spent time on UA-cam when my limited time (could be as little as 15 mins a week if I was acting up) could be spent playing a game online. All the same, I feel for those who did get to enjoy the heyday of all these creators who helped build their childhoods. It's unfortunate how fast that period came and went for all of us.
He was such a genuinely great guy, literally he started off trying to help people find great games to play.
He got screwed over so much and it's a shame since he seriously raised an entire generation of kids.
Hope he does good in life.
He and jen made my entire childhood
It’s kinda ironic that you mentioned that they raised a generation of kids. Jen wanted kids and he didn’t, but in the end they were the fun parents to LOADS of kids
@@Juju-nw7dp same
yeah, pat gave me the talk
i miss 2018 my dad and me and my brothers would sit in a room watching there content i miss pat and jen :(
I had liked him as a pre teen, one time teacher wanted me to make a poem about someone i had idolized, i choose him, when i went to print his picture, the kid who used the printer knew the UA-camr and asked me, "you watch him ??" I said yes, now i can't even imagine his divorce
i dont like your profile pic but i agree
Reminds me of a horror game...
*DDLC*
The word poem reminds me of ddlc now, *I can't escape*

I’m going to cry myself to sleep tonight.
This is actually the saddest thing I have ever heard,
I never thought it would come to this,
I haven’t been to their channel or watched a video of theirs in years,
It’s sad to see them break up.
My childhood is crumbling.
When u say this it reminds me of the kermit jumping off the building
Bro I come from your time I am 11 but know popularmmo and stampstampylonghead and other stuff and the way I know because I was born in 2009 and watch this stuff and then I went away I know how you feel
Same
I’m 30 and i too feel like my childhood is crumbling. Sigh, guess it’s time to move out my moms house 😢
@@fatimaorendain bruh I was born in 2007 I'm so ebick 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓😎😎😎😎😎
I remember watching the channel as a kid. Then remembering it years later and having a look to see what changed and the first video was their divorce. Absolutely floored me
The same thing happened to me, it hit me like a sack of bricks
Every time I hear that "Hey guyyys!" it brings back memories...
That makes me cry
It is not fair for him he devoted his life to UA-cam but everything came crashing down on him I just hope one day he will become his old self again and get back with Jen even if it is just as friends
I miss waiting for videos of that one series with Pat and Jen with that one zombie apocalypse series
(Edit) it was the Crafting Dead, it took me a bit to remember the name.
Same I feel you
Indeed
“I’m with my girlfriend Jen” *cries in heartbreak*
Dont be sad that they got divorced, be happy that they were something special in your childhood
@@sloud471 i know, I just miss when i was a kid and i would watch them everyday. I'm not sad that they broke up, I'm sad that time went by too quickly. I miss his intros.
For some reason Jen's voice and energy is a lot differnt she isn't as talkitive as she was before so I do believe that it has changed Jen alot that's why I don't watch them as much
@@Roxxie_ig agree :c
Yeah I couldn’t watch this without crying from 2015 to 2020 had a bad downfall. Us fans really hope 2021 will be a good year for him
This dudes' Minecraft series was a big part in my childhood. It's pretty sad seeing the couple break up too.
I knew his UA-cam channel would come to a end one day. That's just life.
Everything comes to an end
Remember the crafting dead evil Jen pickle sword honey boo boo
I remember watching these with my cousins when we were younger. They were obsessed with Jen and Pat, and we bonded together in the time we spent watching. I haven’t thought about them in so long, and I’m so sad to see everything that has gone down and declined. These two are so nostalgic to me, and it hurts to see that special old part of my life fading. Seriously, I still have an old message from one of my cousins talking about a parkour video by Popular MMOs. I wish them all the happiness and prosperity they deserve, and I’m thankful for the memories they brought me and my cousins.
One important thing I feel you didn't mention was his viewerbase also matured and grew up. And how we weren't interested at the same things we were when we were kids, able to watch 30 minute videos without getting distracted by other things in life. I started to lose intrest even before the breakup or anything of that sort. The videos started feeling repetitive and we realized this.
Yeah😔it's still terribly sad tho
Yep.
thats so true, I used to love watching their videos when I was younger.
Its so sad that there channel died like that
Because people wanna blame Fortnite for everything
I don’t know why I stopped watching but it gives me nostalgia.
Maybe cuz you grew up and moved on to other creators? Atleast that’s what happened me
I changed this so you don’t know why I got 110+ Likes
Exactly. He was the second place in Minecraft influencers for me
Same
@@rq3246 me to
Pat loved Eleni so much, but when Eleni didn't need Pat anymore she pretended that they were never together. And Pat definitely misses Jen a little, "Me and Jen never had drama"
Fetal position intensifies
Tbh i thought Eleni was the new person to make Pat happy again but nope.
This video almost made me cry because my childhood was defined by popular mmos and stampy and seeing both of the fall apart feels like ripping my childhood away
I still remember how fun those arenas were with modded bosses and lucky blocks, good times
Some of the best times indeed
The classic challenge games
Specially mob battles fun times indeed
Me too
It gave me true happiness
I remember wanting a popularmmos and stampylonghead crossover for so long.
Oml sameeeeeee
DanTDM
Bro Dan and pat would be such a good collab, imagine them doing lucky block bedwars together!
Yo me to. Also with dantdm
Now both are falling down
"PopularMMOs?"
*takes puff of cigarette*
"Haven't heard that name in years"
Hahaha
@@lilteachr ._.
Anyone remember the hide n seek?
The hunger games lucky block challenge?
The epic poportions? S8 was the best.
this actually made me sad like this channel was my childhood so sad to see them fall off i legit cried and i never cry to movies or any sad situation but like this is just heart braking
16:45 Ironic. He would date the woman who is now trying to ruin his life by doxxing his actual address and posting about a potential arrest on his head. Meanwhile, his ex-wife is the one coming to his defense, believing that he's being treated unfairly.
Yes
Wait what the hell
@@ironmickXD Shocking, I know. But it happened.
@@maxthecharacter1296 l loved this channel but stop watching bc I could him and Jen didn’t fell happy. Btw did he and that new girl break up if they didn’t they need to if this is still happening
@@ironmickXD I heard both of them got charged for a similar crime. I don't remember what it was, but it was bad enough to say that neither of them sees eye to eye anymore.
It really hurts to see the channel like this. These two were like second parents to me they made me laugh when I needed it and they were my image of my ideal relationship. When they broke up I tried to keep watching them bc I wanted to support them no matter what but the vibe of the videos just seemed off. I could feel this vibe months before the breakup video it was almost like an ingenuine feeling like they were hiding something. I don’t hate Eleni I’m sure she’s a nice woman but she feels like a replacement of Jen. And pat looks like he’s about to snap it actually kind of scary. I really hope he can get out of this and start to get the views he was getting before but with the way his channel is going that’s very likely not gonna happen.

Pat and jen are literally the reason Why I started playing Minecraft
Yup :(
they recomended me to play and so i did
Captain sparkles for me
SAME no one talks about this. popularmmos, little carly, little kelly, all of them was the reason I played minecraft.
For me it was dan. I found Dan first and later found pat and jen
You can tell Jen really loved him as she kept looking at him during the videos, while Elani kept looking at the camera
I just realized that PopularMMOS has more than twice as many views as Mr Beast.

Hats off to him for trying to stay professional. Everyone in his comments wanted him to crack on camera like other UA-camrs but he didn't good luck to him
Everyone on whose comment? In which video?
@@kasid4759 his comments, like Jen’s gone, move on
@@chilldoc9638 is that the name of the video?
@@kasid4759 no, just any videos around the time eleni came and Jen and pat broke up
Also, kinda sucks seeing people hating on his new gf when he is trying to move on with his life.
I think I have come back to this video the most out of any of SunnyV2's video's, its just so well made and PopularMMO's was thee thing from my childhood that I would always just love. Pat and Jen's break up was the saddest thing to learn about from my childhood creators, same goes for SkyDoesMinecraft. Its heart breaking but I hope that they will one day find what makes them all happy.

Damn, that memory is pushed so far back into my brain and I don’t know why I remember that-
I dont know why the minecraft music makes it more depressing.
Probably because Minecraft music is depressing.

Nostalgia plus NOSTALGIA equals depression
Why does the new girl look and sound bitchy and how she blinks when talking 😠
Cuz it’s nostalgia
Dude, Pat is a Good guy ngl, he Doesn’t Swear, He smiles all the time when he has webcam on, For a masculine Guy he is so pure. Seeing him smile even tho everything’s falling apart i can’t do that lol. I hope he will recover from all of that crap he’s been too.
Pat genuinely feels like a happy person who always finds a way to be happy, I hope he's happy now.
Watch pat vs the world where he eats a habenaro
Pat is a saint, he's not even mad that the channel is pulling less and less, he's always happy it seems, i hope he has a new spark and his Channel skyrockets again, best of wishes pat, best of wishes
What do you mean "for a masculine guy"? Does a guy need to be a sissy to be a decent human being?
If he brought back some abandoned series like mob battles and epic proportions it could sky rocket again, although the last time he did a epic proportions like series was playing modded minecraft upside down, and it simply means people wouldn't find it as fun so the 1st episode of it got over 1 million views but the second one only got over half of episode's 1 views and not enough likes to continue the series, I see mob battles skyrocketing their channel again though and if they do a proper epic proportions that could skyrocket too.
The big thing for me was while most every other minecraft youtuber would collab and merge so it looked like they were one happy community poppularmmos was always Pat and Jen. I aged out of them, having been part of the early crowd that went on to games like destiny. When I recently came back to watch them it was no surprise that things went downhill. Every famous person from my childhood has gone downhill with the exception of CaptainSparkles. The thing that kills me though is that Pat was clearly very happy to do youtube and he did it with someone he truly cared about. I think by the time they made the divorce public things had been sorted out and they were happy to be friends but the gf conflict caused problems.
It's so weird to watch people who primarily present with their voices try to present on camera. His voice says "energetic and excited!" but his eyes say "d e a d i n s i d e."
Same, I keep noticing that
he doesn't look happy and his voice doesn't seem as bright
he's always looked so happy and it makes me feel sad..
Glad his channel isn’t entirely dead tho. He still gets a decent amount of views.
Yep, it’s definitely picking back up
Yeah the views are picking up for sure especially with him bringing back og stuff let’s just hope stuff gets better
Some views lol. His channel isn't dead at all, it's just not at the absurd heights it used to be, like most channels who are around for that long.
His tik tok is booming
Now that he is returning a lot of his series, I think it's definitely getting revived.
I watched this guy since I was a kid, I freaking hate to see him suffer like this, he doesn’t deserve it, having to sit here helplessly watching him slowly die really impacted me..but the fact he has the same smile in almost every video no matter the topic really shows, how strong he is (idk what I’m saying, can’t phrase properly.)
I understood what you were trying to say no problem despite what you said at the end but also I agree with this comment
I have been on his channel since 2013 and I won’t stop watching Patrick
@@nope.7392
I have been here since early 2014 and the secret base mod showcase video is really what introduced me to modded Minecraft, and I can say that it is one of the things that kept my childhood from falling apart for as long as it did, I may not be in the greatest place now, but hopefully I can keep going strong
@@crumbug5504 dude I started on challenge games. My favorite series is the Sad panda tho
@@nope.7392 yeah the lucky block challenges or reviews and burn it were the best
