Thanks for all the support over the years! But as mentioned in the video, the channel and the team are still here to stay, I'm just heading off on my own little adventure. So make sure to stick around for LOTS more awesome content, especially since 2023 is a BIG one for gaming! - Alex / Arekkz
Ngl, I’ve seen this coming for a while. That being said, I’ll definitely miss your MH videos. Being honest, your voice on the voiceover was the best for the brand. I would still recommend deepfaking it if possible.
Aye yo imma miss you and your epic voice and epic beard. Your voice is so iconic. From your content your voice ensures trust and stability...you helped me master 9 monster weapons and helped me when I was too frustrated to press my ps button. I'm not loyal to a channel really. I'm loyal to character and creators that help with genuine care and experience to the growth of others. Sorry to see you go. But your amazing and clearly a massively influential icon. Thanks arekkz. Gaming or other wise you made a difference and an impact.
Still remember making my start with that Division video we made together. Been a huge journey and I'm thankful for all the advice and friendship you've given me. Not sure what your next steps will be but I'm sure you'll absolutely crush it, as you always do. Best of luck mate
Thank you so much bro! I still remember those Division collabs fondly, and catching up at events! The God of War trip was still my favourite one, haha! It's been fantastic to see you grow over the years too and I'm so happy to see where you are now! Thanks for the support and hope to catch up with you in the future!
Alex... For us you've been both an inspiration, as well as a mentor especially when it comes to content creation. You've helped us out so many times when we struggled and for that we'll always be greatful. To hear that you're leaving youtube and the MH community as a creator is super sad but at the same time I can also understand you. This job is a challenging one, especially after so many years but if anything you've been pushing this channel further than most men could have ever done. You're a legend and that's why I'm 100% confident you'll soon find your new exciting adventure and you'll be fantastic at it, as always. Thanks for everything you've done for us and the MH community and thanks for being a good friend
Thank you so much Chris, really appreciate that! It's been amazing to see you and the team grow over the years too! And I'm excited to see what you guys continue to do. I'll just be able to enjoy it as a viewer/subscriber now 🙏 - Alex
i 100% agree with team darkside. i fully believe it was because of you two that helped monster hunter get to where it is now. it was a rare gem of a game that many never heard of and two two helped so many people find it
I remember you being my go-to-guy when MHW and MHWIB was still at its peak. Dunno If I would've enjoyed it as much without your guides on each weapons, events, and of course monsters. Wish you all the best on your new journey Arrekz. Edit: Nice to see I wasnt the only one who had the same experience with Arrekz's videos in MHW/IB. Lets wish him good luck on his new adventure. Happy Hunting Arrekz!
You will be missed Alex, your MH videos are one of the few things that brought MH to the mainstream audience and increased it's popularity. Thanks for all the years of great guides and opinions. Wish you well in your endeavors 🙌
I clicked on the recent Arrekz Gaming' videos on the Monster Hunter Wilds videos and looking forward to hearing your voice again. Found this video afterwards.
During Monster Hunter World and Iceborne, your videos were absolutely crucial. Thank you and the team for your efforts in producing such amazing content.
I’m really gonna miss the “ yo what’s goin on guys, it’s Arekkz here”😢 I’ve been around this channel for years, it’s really not gonna feel the same without you here.. but I do hope that whatever you decide to do from here on out, that everything goes in your favor! I wish you all the best my man!
Your early MH:W videos convinced me to dedicate the time to what is now my favorite gaming experience in the past 20 years! 1000 hours later, I owe you and your team a great deal for all the content throughout the years.. Glad you're making a change for your mental - burnout is real, even in the things that we once loved most. Wishing you the best on what's to come!
This is like saying goodbye to your favorite teacher in school. Thank you so much Sensei! I would have never been able to get a good grip on the monster hunter games if it wasn't for your indepth tutorials and guides. Weapon workshops were must see videos before mastering any new weapon in MH. I really wish you the best in whatever future endeavors you will be doing!
Thank you for all the awesome content throughout the years on the channel, Arekkz!! Your videos got me back into Monster Hunter after being away from the series for a while and they have helped me enjoy MH even more. Wishing you the best in your future endeavors, I know you will succeed in whatever it is you choose to pursue!
It won’t be the same watching monster monster hunter vids not hearing your voice “hello guys, Arekkz Gaming here”.. Good luck in your future endeavors!
Exactly! It was a running joke within the group we played MHW with. If someone asked about a specific weapon, we'd immediately say "Watch the Arekkz video". Definitely going to be missed. Nothing against the other guys, just don't enjoy them as much
We love you, man. We know you'll do great things and we know the channel is in good hands with 267, PC, Vest, Toxi and everyone else. Best wishes from Mathalos.
I wish you luck on any of your future endeavors! I’ve always loved the MH content and I won’t lie I’m sad to see you go. As someone who has also made content for a decade I understand the relentless drain but we all support you in the end!
Its going to be so so weird not hearing your voice talk about all the different games and whatnot, but you gotta do what makes you happy and fulfilled man. Wishing you all the best!
Damn that sucks, I've been watching since mh3u, and your voice has been the one I associate the most with learning new movesets. We're glad you're moving on without drama or hardships, but it won't be quite the same without you
Man I remember watching your MH4U guides on Christmas after getting the game, so many memories thank you for all the amazing content over the years much appreciated and so many good memories.
I subbed to you during the MH4U days and have watched, shared and enjoyed your content ever since! Your weapon tutorials for 4U were one of the reasons I was able to get into Monster Hunter and enjoy it so much. You've helped and inspired so many gamers over the years and I, for one, am eternally grateful for everything you've done. Yourself along with the rest of the Arrekz team, Gaijin, TDS and all the other content creators have all helped create a fantastic western Monster Hunter community!
Really loved your videos over the years been watching since MH4U. You've done so much for the community alone and I'm thankful you've been apart of it. It's always sad seeing someone exit a space you've shared/enjoyed together. It's sad you won't be here anymore but we understand and wish you well in further endeavors.
I was drawn to the channel due to your MHW content. Hearing "Hello, everyone! Arekks here!" sparked a number of positive emotions. The content produced by the channel has always been quality. Thank you for your time devoted!
Yo Arekkz! Always stuck with ya since your guides in Monster Hunter 4u. You and Gaijin Hunter were my main sources for that type of content and then followed through the years for all the information and news. Sharing it with all my friends with the excitement of new releases, information and or techniques. As an SnS Bro, you're one of the greatest too. Most importantly is that like you said, you gotta take care of yourself. Arekkz Gaming will still remain a fantastic source of information for me and my friends. I wish you the best in your endeavors Arekkz!
Thanks Arekkz. I’ve followed you for almost a decade and I’m so grateful for the years of content you’ve created that’s been so entertaining and educational. Your love for games always shone through and your genuineness and authenticity was always a joy. I totally get you on your decision and support you 100%. This new age of content creation is far too unsustainable in its insatiable demand to always be creating. It’s not healthy and I’m so glad for you that you’ve made the tough choice to get off the hamster wheel and take care of yourself. God bless you brother.
I remember when I was a lot younger, just sitting there with my 3DS and listening to and watching your videos for MH4U and MHGEN, and all the changes that have come along since then. Thank you so much for everything you've done for us!
Been around since the early MHW days. You helped me get through quite a lot of stuff since then. I never really commented much but I figured I'd wish you well. It's sad to see creators leave but at the same time I'm always happy for it. Good on you for taking such a huge leap into something new and unknown. You did a lot of great work here, helped hundreds of thousands of people, and I've no doubt you'll continue to do so in whatever comes next. Carry on with pride and good luck on your new journey!!
Crazy man, hope you get whatever you need from life going forward. You are one of the most genuine people on youtube and people really don't realise that. Always appreciated/will appreciate you buddy, good luck!
Actually have a lump in my thoat. You all gave me the break I never thought I'd get. Without you, TwoSix and the rest of the gang I wouldn't be where I am now in life. Thank you so, so much for eveything. ❤❤
It's going to be sad to know you are leaving Arekkz. I've been following you since mh4u back in the day and I remember how different you were back then! It was a fun journey and I appreciate that you were one of the first UA-cam personalities that really help grow my love for monster hunter! I hope whatever things you decide to move on to next will be great and God bless 🤙🏽
Your Monster Hunter tutorials are crucial to the point of being integral to playing the game, and frankly should be included with the game. I associate your voice and cadence with cracking the impenetrable shell of MHW and opened it up to one of my favourite ever game experiences. Thank you for that
I’m really happy and honored that I was able to play with you and the others once on a stream a few years back in MHG, one of the best moments in my life that I could never forget ❤
Thank you for everything Arekkz! You've been one of the first big names within the MH community that I spoke to back in the days and it's been an absolute honnor to know you and play Monster Hunter with you and the rest of the team these past few years! We've had lots of fun and incredible moments in game and you've given me many opportunities to be part of this channel's amazing content - for all of that, thank you Arekkz, it's been great fun! Best of luck for whatever comes next!
Proud of you big man 🙏 I appreciate everything you and the boys taught me over our time together, and I wish you all the best. Excited to see what's next for both Arekkz and Arekkz Gaming
Thanks for al the awesome videos over the years. My favourite video of yours of all time has to be God Of War 2018 when you went to the Sony event in the snowy wastes. That was so beautiful made and shot. I've gone back to it several times over the years as a reference point for amazing content. All the best for the future!
I usually like a channel for the person speaking, how clear their voice is, how confident they are and how welcoming they seem, I’ll definitely miss having you do the videos but I’ll be looking forward to see who takes the seat, hopefully they can fill the throne you have left them, GL on your journey my friend 😊
Man, I've been watching you since the Destiny 1 days. But I'm happy to see you're doing the things that make ya happy. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with in the future! Very best of luck!
A bit saddening but also happy you’re moving in a direction that you want to head into. Thanks for being apart of my MH journey and all the hard work you guys put into the world tutorials. It made me really enjoy a game at its core. Good luck to you and the remaining team!
You (and your Team) are a legend. And stopping now doesnt change that. Thank you for teaching us weapons, bringing the news and good times with your content in general. Nothing but respect for you.
You've been incredibly kind and helpful to the monster hunter community and I'm sure we'll all never forget that. Watching your old monster analysis videos was my fav thing to do in my spare time during high-school and I think it's also thanks to you that we all became so passionate about the game. Thank you agan and wish you the best Alex!
I just wanna say that your guides was my only friend back when i just started MHW. I had no friends to teach me the ropes, so i mainly play solo. Your videos helped to become a good hunter and ultimately enjoy the best game ever made. So thank you for your dedication for this community. I salute you Arekkz
Wow! How time flies. I still remember watching your vids on MHW back then. It won't be the same without you. I support your future endeavors and hope you have enjoy the next step of your journey!
Man, I've been watching you since way back in Monster Hunter 4U. You and Gaijin Hunter really helped me to master that game and ultimately contributed to Monster Hunter being one of my favourite franchises of all time. Whatever you choose to do next, I hope you have a wonderful time.
Quite unfortunate that your channel fell off the algorithm but wishing you all the best on your new journey mate and for the future of the channel whatever happens to it! Thank you very much for the 6+ years of dedication you have given us from all of these amazing game reviews, gameplay and guides. Thank you so much Arekkz o7.
@@lostark-pvphighlights7111 Thats how unfair youtube algorithm is, not sure how entirely it works but to tell you the truth the last vid I watched from Arekkz was 4+ months ago about MH sunbreak but after that I stopped getting notification this video I just saw by chance from refreshing my homepage, I honestly believe that if your channel fell off the algorithm you don't get recommended again to all of your viewers even if those viewers are subscribe to you and got all the notification turned on. Really really sad and quite unfortunate.
@@MrNeegsafro when a channel is not in the algorithm, generally this means that videos from that channel won’t be pushed to viewers, show up less frequently in searches and overall performance of the channel in terms of views and interactions drops quite substantially.
I found this channel when I first played the MH4U Demo. This channel along with Gaijin Hunter help me with getting into the MH Community. Thank you for all the work you guys put in though out the years. Arrekz, I wish you luck in your adventures going forward.
You will always be "the who taught me how to use my weapons in Monster Hunter World", and what an amazing journey it has been. I wish all the best Arreks, as a content creator myself, I understand what you are talking about. Be happy my fellow hunter 😉
Found this channel coz of MHW, and had a blast with MHW thanks to all the guides & videos from this channel. Thanks Arekkz for all the funs and wish you all the best in your future endeavors! :D
Your monster hunter videos always taught me something, 3u, 4u, gen/genx, world/iceborne. Thank you for all your amazing content and being the voice of those videos. I look forward to what the future brings, but you will also be missed.
Much like others here, its sad to see you go but we are proud and excited for your next journey. Your content has always been a haven for MH, Tales, FF, and other RPG fans. Personally, I started watching you during the MH3U or MH4U days and till this day, you have been a pinnacle of the MH community along with Gaijin Hunter. Thank you for shaping me into the gamer that I am today and for making games all the more special!
Thank you so much for everything, Arekkz 🙏!! I first came across your channel when I first started playing MHW. You're practically the first ever mentor for a lot of us MHW players. I really appreciate all your entertaining and informative videos!! I wish you the best of luck in your future endeavors, Senpai Arekkz 😃🍀!! You do what makes you happy 🤗. You have my support 100 pawcent!!
One of the biggest interviews we've ever gotten on our small South African gaming website, Alex was extremely humble and down-to-earth. Wish you all the best on your future endeavours, man! You've been a huge part of my Monster Hunter UA-cam journey.
Arekkz… thank you. Thank you for being my go-to for Monster Hunter guides and videos. You were my main recommendation for MH content and guides for anyone I brought into the franchise. Hearing your voice get just as excited as I would when talking about MH was comforting. Thank you
Destiny 1/2 - MHW I/B - tons of other games. Your channel has always been the pinnacle of quality and correct information for anything related to the games you guys cover. Thanks for all the help. Wish you well in your next endeavors.
TLDW; doesn't have quite the same passion for gaming now as a decade ago, been feeling burned out more and more often for the past few years, want to move on beyond UA-cam and try to find something fun to do IRL (i.e. finding a "regular" job). Ty for all the great content!
I discovered your channel right when ER was released, and your tips and thoroughly videos really helped me a ton on advancing in my first playthrough. Amazing channel, cheers to your current success and future success as well.
Than you so much for your years of content creation. You helped me soooooo much as a new MH player in World. Your weapon workshops in particular were invaluable to me! You helped me master the Charge Blade in record time, along with other weapons too. Wish you the best on your journey!
I only can imagine what time and effort you and the team have put into all the great content but as being self employed as well I know how these kind of things can pile up. I’m a viewer from back on in the time of “welcome to another division video” and saw you all grow. Amazing times. I hope you’ll find the next chapter of your career and it brings you joy ❤best wishes friend!
Definitely won’t be the same without you, but I look forward to what the channel evolves into. Good luck in whatever you do next man, you’re a huge reason I’ve gotten into the monster Hunter franchise.
I'm happy he wants to grow as a person. Unfortunately anytime anyone's left their channel to someone else and they say it's not going to change, it never has that same spark. Thank you for all the work over all the years. You definitely made MH easier to understand for someone who came in during World
Thank you Arekkz for your passion and love you bring to the gaming community, you made such a big impact on me with your Monster Hunter content, you made me love gaming again after a period I wasn't doing so good. You are an inspiration and a living legend. Thank you for everything you have done. I wish you all the best!
Good luck Alex! It's been a pleasure watching over the years. Thank you so much for all your effort and time helping me through games! I wish you all the best!
You’re an inspiration for me and I truly believe you were a huge reason on the success of monster hunter world. Without your weapon workshops hundreds of thousands of fivers would not have learned to enjoy the game as we do now. That is me included. Hope the best for you going forward!
If and when more Monster Hunter content comes out, promise you'll pop in for some gameplay every now and then? It's always fun to see you guys play as a group!
I found your channel when I started Cyberpunk 2077, you were and have been my go to guy/channel for games we share/play, thank you so much for everything you have done for us and I wish you the best in your new adventure.
Wow...I still remember when I came about this channel. I was still in the Air Force and sent for my first time overseas to S. Korea. None of my stuff had arrived yet, so I was bored out my mind on youtube burning through data. That's when I came across your weapon workshops for Monster Hunter Generations. I never knew about the series before then and loved how weighty the weapons seemed move. Like all your attacks mattered and button mashing was discouraged. I immediately took a cab to the nearest store and bought a N3ds and Generations(still have no other games for it). Since then I've been hooked on Monster Hunter and loving it. Thank you for the now 6yrs of enjoyment you've brought to my life. I wish you the best.
usually when you see a video titled like this you get a sinking feeling that something bad happened but it's good to know that you're leaving out of your own volition and not some drama. I wish you the best in whatever career you take up next and thank you for all the MH tutorials and guides you did over the years.
You've been an inspiration to me since Monster Hunter 3. There are countless videos I've watched numerous times to help me learn and thrive in my own gaming environment. Your voice always brought me joy and I'm truly sad to hear you're leaving. I know how hard it is to run a channel like this and I'm looking forward to your future personal content, if any. Thank you for all that you've done, Alex. -Ryan
I just want to say big thank you for all of your hard work though out these years on this channel, I was sticking with you almost since the beginning of it and it was a wonderful time. I wish you everything best in future job/jobs, and also well deserved rest :) You are the best !!
man i will forever remember being a naive lil 13 year old looking up Mh4U content and builds and your channel helped a lot cause i always made full sets as a kid cause it looked awesome and then got into optimizing my damage or making fun builds thank you for your service and amazing content i look forward to the teams content as always but obviously it wont be the same without you
Sad to see you go, but happy that you're looking forward to starting something new. Arekkz, know that without you, I wouldn't have found my love for Monster Hunter World and games onward the way that I did. You will be truly missed. Cheers to new adventures!
I remember watching your MHW weapon workshop vids. I don't have a job that time, don't have my own consoles too. Now Im enjoying the game and been watching your videos still. I can say you've been part of the journey. Thank you Arekkz! Goodluck with your new adventure!
Truly an end of an era. Things will be really different without your voice on the channel. But I applaud your decision, it takes a lot of courage and gumption to step into the unknown and I know this because I've done the same as well. Thanks for being THE trusted voice of the community, and I'm sure everyone will be rooting for you no matter where you land.
I tried doing UA-cam seriously for half a year and it was immensely stressful and unenjoyable - definitely a grind that puts MonHun / MMO grinds to shame. You should have left earlier when it started affecting your health! Please take it easy to make up for the decade you've given to the community!
Thank you for all that you have done for the channel! You guys have been a leader for youtube channels for so many of us. I've always enjoyed your content and you guys inspired me to make my own channel. Thank you so much for everything! Wishing you the best Arekkz!!
Thank you for all that you’ve done, Alex. From Destiny, to the Division to Monster Hunter and more! I’ve been here for much of the journey and you will be absolutely missed. Thanks For the Memories!
Even though I’ve been playing since MH3U, your MHW videos are what made me go from a player my friends had to carry, to being capable of carrying them when they were in a tight spot too. It’ll be a bummer not to have you, but I’ll definitely stick around because the content your team has produced is fantastic. Best of luck in your new endeavors!
I found this channel back with the first Division game, and I've been hanging around ever since. Its been a great time seeing all of your work and the teams work. Hope you do well man. Good luck, and thanks for all the great content over the years.
Can't forget how much you and the others helped me through my monster hunter journey through your guides and for that I am very much greatful and you almost got me to switch from a Dual Blades main to a Sword and Shield main
Thanks for all your content! I'm glad you are moving on and doing what's right for you. I'm definitely looking forward towards the new monster hunter and more build videos.
nooooo the "yo whats going on arekks here" is going to be EXTREMELY missed :( as a fellow (small) youtuber i can understand though, this job is hella hard. And people who dont do it say its easy and you get free money by doing nothing all day, wich cannot be further away from the truth. I can understand your struggle, and i can positively say you will start enjoying life once again now! We'll miss you though, but i'm happy to know the other guys on the channel are here to stay. Thanks for all you'we done, especially for monster hunter content. I've always associated MH content with your voice!
Sad to see you go. I remember when I first stumbled upon one of your videos 6 years ago. It's been a pleasure watching your guys' videos. In some ways you were an inspiration for me to start my channel. So thanks for all the good times. And I wish you the best in your new endeavors.
Thanks for all the support over the years! But as mentioned in the video, the channel and the team are still here to stay, I'm just heading off on my own little adventure. So make sure to stick around for LOTS more awesome content, especially since 2023 is a BIG one for gaming! - Alex / Arekkz

He definitely was. Him and this channel were who I watched out for exclusively when looking for new MHW and Iceborne content.
Same here MH was when I found this channel and Sub.
He was my master when I was still learning all the weapons. I would listen to the tutorials as I rode the bus to college.
Same, when MHW came out and I grinded like mad, this chanel was my go-to for tips and guides
Same here.
You will be missed Alex, your MH videos are one of the few things that brought MH to the mainstream audience and increased it's popularity. Thanks for all the years of great guides and opinions. Wish you well in your endeavors 🙌
I clicked on the recent Arrekz Gaming' videos on the Monster Hunter Wilds videos and looking forward to hearing your voice again. Found this video afterwards.

I was like, tf that doesn't sound right.
I'm here now coz I just found out
Same
Ditto. Doesn't feel the same now for me.

Damn that sucks, I've been watching since mh3u, and your voice has been the one I associate the most with learning new movesets. We're glad you're moving on without drama or hardships, but it won't be quite the same without you
Thank you for your work on this channel, Arekkz! Good luck on your next adventures!
Man I remember watching your MH4U guides on Christmas after getting the game, so many memories thank you for all the amazing content over the years much appreciated and so many good memories.
I subbed to you during the MH4U days and have watched, shared and enjoyed your content ever since! Your weapon tutorials for 4U were one of the reasons I was able to get into Monster Hunter and enjoy it so much. You've helped and inspired so many gamers over the years and I, for one, am eternally grateful for everything you've done. Yourself along with the rest of the Arrekz team, Gaijin, TDS and all the other content creators have all helped create a fantastic western Monster Hunter community!
Really loved your videos over the years been watching since MH4U. You've done so much for the community alone and I'm thankful you've been apart of it. It's always sad seeing someone exit a space you've shared/enjoyed together. It's sad you won't be here anymore but we understand and wish you well in further endeavors.
I was drawn to the channel due to your MHW content. Hearing "Hello, everyone! Arekks here!" sparked a number of positive emotions. The content produced by the channel has always been quality. Thank you for your time devoted!
Yo Arekkz! Always stuck with ya since your guides in Monster Hunter 4u. You and Gaijin Hunter were my main sources for that type of content and then followed through the years for all the information and news. Sharing it with all my friends with the excitement of new releases, information and or techniques. As an SnS Bro, you're one of the greatest too. Most importantly is that like you said, you gotta take care of yourself. Arekkz Gaming will still remain a fantastic source of information for me and my friends. I wish you the best in your endeavors Arekkz!
Thanks Arekkz. I’ve followed you for almost a decade and I’m so grateful for the years of content you’ve created that’s been so entertaining and educational. Your love for games always shone through and your genuineness and authenticity was always a joy. I totally get you on your decision and support you 100%. This new age of content creation is far too unsustainable in its insatiable demand to always be creating. It’s not healthy and I’m so glad for you that you’ve made the tough choice to get off the hamster wheel and take care of yourself. God bless you brother.
I remember when I was a lot younger, just sitting there with my 3DS and listening to and watching your videos for MH4U and MHGEN, and all the changes that have come along since then. Thank you so much for everything you've done for us!
Been around since the early MHW days. You helped me get through quite a lot of stuff since then. I never really commented much but I figured I'd wish you well. It's sad to see creators leave but at the same time I'm always happy for it. Good on you for taking such a huge leap into something new and unknown. You did a lot of great work here, helped hundreds of thousands of people, and I've no doubt you'll continue to do so in whatever comes next. Carry on with pride and good luck on your new journey!!
Crazy man, hope you get whatever you need from life going forward. You are one of the most genuine people on youtube and people really don't realise that.
Always appreciated/will appreciate you buddy, good luck!
Actually have a lump in my thoat. You all gave me the break I never thought I'd get. Without you, TwoSix and the rest of the gang I wouldn't be where I am now in life. Thank you so, so much for eveything. ❤❤
It's going to be sad to know you are leaving Arekkz. I've been following you since mh4u back in the day and I remember how different you were back then! It was a fun journey and I appreciate that you were one of the first UA-cam personalities that really help grow my love for monster hunter! I hope whatever things you decide to move on to next will be great and God bless 🤙🏽
Your Monster Hunter tutorials are crucial to the point of being integral to playing the game, and frankly should be included with the game. I associate your voice and cadence with cracking the impenetrable shell of MHW and opened it up to one of my favourite ever game experiences. Thank you for that
I’m really happy and honored that I was able to play with you and the others once on a stream a few years back in MHG, one of the best moments in my life that I could never forget ❤
Thank you for everything Arekkz! You've been one of the first big names within the MH community that I spoke to back in the days and it's been an absolute honnor to know you and play Monster Hunter with you and the rest of the team these past few years! We've had lots of fun and incredible moments in game and you've given me many opportunities to be part of this channel's amazing content - for all of that, thank you Arekkz, it's been great fun! Best of luck for whatever comes next!
Proud of you big man 🙏
I appreciate everything you and the boys taught me over our time together, and I wish you all the best.
Excited to see what's next for both Arekkz and Arekkz Gaming
Thanks for al the awesome videos over the years. My favourite video of yours of all time has to be God Of War 2018 when you went to the Sony event in the snowy wastes. That was so beautiful made and shot. I've gone back to it several times over the years as a reference point for amazing content.
All the best for the future!
I usually like a channel for the person speaking, how clear their voice is, how confident they are and how welcoming they seem, I’ll definitely miss having you do the videos but I’ll be looking forward to see who takes the seat, hopefully they can fill the throne you have left them, GL on your journey my friend 😊
Man, I've been watching you since the Destiny 1 days. But I'm happy to see you're doing the things that make ya happy. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with in the future! Very best of luck!
A bit saddening but also happy you’re moving in a direction that you want to head into.
Thanks for being apart of my MH journey and all the hard work you guys put into the world tutorials. It made me really enjoy a game at its core.
Good luck to you and the remaining team!
You (and your Team) are a legend. And stopping now doesnt change that.
Thank you for teaching us weapons, bringing the news and good times with your content in general.
Nothing but respect for you.
I am Sad
Honestly man you guys are legend. I wish you luck in what you do!
You've been incredibly kind and helpful to the monster hunter community and I'm sure we'll all never forget that. Watching your old monster analysis videos was my fav thing to do in my spare time during high-school and I think it's also thanks to you that we all became so passionate about the game. Thank you agan and wish you the best Alex!
I just wanna say that your guides was my only friend back when i just started MHW. I had no friends to teach me the ropes, so i mainly play solo. Your videos helped to become a good hunter and ultimately enjoy the best game ever made. So thank you for your dedication for this community. I salute you Arekkz
Wow! How time flies. I still remember watching your vids on MHW back then. It won't be the same without you. I support your future endeavors and hope you have enjoy the next step of your journey!
Man, I've been watching you since way back in Monster Hunter 4U. You and Gaijin Hunter really helped me to master that game and ultimately contributed to Monster Hunter being one of my favourite franchises of all time. Whatever you choose to do next, I hope you have a wonderful time.
It's indeed a time for new beginnings. Good luck sir. Thank you for the guides and content. You're a gentleman and a saint.
Thanks for the great vids you gave us man. Really appreciated every help you gave me over the years. Hope you go on to good things. All the best.
Quite unfortunate that your channel fell off the algorithm but wishing you all the best on your new journey mate and for the future of the channel whatever happens to it!
Thank you very much for the 6+ years of dedication you have given us from all of these amazing game reviews, gameplay and guides. Thank you so much Arekkz o7.
"Vulkan" 's channel has fallen off the algorithm as well. He just hit 100k and suddenly no views !
@@lostark-pvphighlights7111 Thats how unfair youtube algorithm is, not sure how entirely it works but to tell you the truth the last vid I watched from Arekkz was 4+ months ago about MH sunbreak but after that I stopped getting notification this video I just saw by chance from refreshing my homepage, I honestly believe that if your channel fell off the algorithm you don't get recommended again to all of your viewers even if those viewers are subscribe to you and got all the notification turned on. Really really sad and quite unfortunate.
UA-cam seems to love punishing their creators, quite shameful really.
Can anyone explain why its so bad in lamens terms. Whenever i search its just get rich quick videos about how to increase views
@@MrNeegsafro when a channel is not in the algorithm, generally this means that videos from that channel won’t be pushed to viewers, show up less frequently in searches and overall performance of the channel in terms of views and interactions drops quite substantially.
I found this channel when I first played the MH4U Demo. This channel along with Gaijin Hunter help me with getting into the MH Community. Thank you for all the work you guys put in though out the years. Arrekz, I wish you luck in your adventures going forward.
You will always be "the who taught me how to use my weapons in Monster Hunter World", and what an amazing journey it has been.
I wish all the best Arreks, as a content creator myself, I understand what you are talking about.
Be happy my fellow hunter 😉
Found this channel coz of MHW, and had a blast with MHW thanks to all the guides & videos from this channel. Thanks Arekkz for all the funs and wish you all the best in your future endeavors! :D
Same!
Your monster hunter videos always taught me something, 3u, 4u, gen/genx, world/iceborne. Thank you for all your amazing content and being the voice of those videos. I look forward to what the future brings, but you will also be missed.
Much like others here, its sad to see you go but we are proud and excited for your next journey. Your content has always been a haven for MH, Tales, FF, and other RPG fans. Personally, I started watching you during the MH3U or MH4U days and till this day, you have been a pinnacle of the MH community along with Gaijin Hunter. Thank you for shaping me into the gamer that I am today and for making games all the more special!
Thank you so much for everything, Arekkz 🙏!! I first came across your channel when I first started playing MHW. You're practically the first ever mentor for a lot of us MHW players. I really appreciate all your entertaining and informative videos!! I wish you the best of luck in your future endeavors, Senpai Arekkz 😃🍀!! You do what makes you happy 🤗. You have my support 100 pawcent!!
One of the biggest interviews we've ever gotten on our small South African gaming website, Alex was extremely humble and down-to-earth. Wish you all the best on your future endeavours, man! You've been a huge part of my Monster Hunter UA-cam journey.
Arekkz… thank you. Thank you for being my go-to for Monster Hunter guides and videos. You were my main recommendation for MH content and guides for anyone I brought into the franchise. Hearing your voice get just as excited as I would when talking about MH was comforting.
Thank you
Destiny 1/2 - MHW I/B - tons of other games. Your channel has always been the pinnacle of quality and correct information for anything related to the games you guys cover. Thanks for all the help. Wish you well in your next endeavors.
What a legend. One of the most positive personalities on UA-cam. You will be so missed brother.
TLDW; doesn't have quite the same passion for gaming now as a decade ago, been feeling burned out more and more often for the past few years, want to move on beyond UA-cam and try to find something fun to do IRL (i.e. finding a "regular" job).
Ty for all the great content!
I discovered your channel right when ER was released, and your tips and thoroughly videos really helped me a ton on advancing in my first playthrough. Amazing channel, cheers to your current success and future success as well.
Than you so much for your years of content creation. You helped me soooooo much as a new MH player in World. Your weapon workshops in particular were invaluable to me! You helped me master the Charge Blade in record time, along with other weapons too. Wish you the best on your journey!
I only can imagine what time and effort you and the team have put into all the great content but as being self employed as well I know how these kind of things can pile up. I’m a viewer from back on in the time of “welcome to another division video” and saw you all grow. Amazing times. I hope you’ll find the next chapter of your career and it brings you joy ❤best wishes friend!
Definitely won’t be the same without you, but I look forward to what the channel evolves into. Good luck in whatever you do next man, you’re a huge reason I’ve gotten into the monster Hunter franchise.
I'm happy he wants to grow as a person.
Unfortunately anytime anyone's left their channel to someone else and they say it's not going to change, it never has that same spark.
Thank you for all the work over all the years. You definitely made MH easier to understand for someone who came in during World
The weapon workshops are timeless resources!
Thank you Arekkz for your passion and love you bring to the gaming community, you made such a big impact on me with your Monster Hunter content, you made me love gaming again after a period I wasn't doing so good. You are an inspiration and a living legend. Thank you for everything you have done. I wish you all the best!
Good luck Alex! It's been a pleasure watching over the years. Thank you so much for all your effort and time helping me through games! I wish you all the best!
You’re an inspiration for me and I truly believe you were a huge reason on the success of monster hunter world. Without your weapon workshops hundreds of thousands of fivers would not have learned to enjoy the game as we do now. That is me included. Hope the best for you going forward!
Didnt see this one coming. Crushing just like the WTF1 news.
Yeah I know...
If and when more Monster Hunter content comes out, promise you'll pop in for some gameplay every now and then? It's always fun to see you guys play as a group!
I found your channel when I started Cyberpunk 2077, you were and have been my go to guy/channel for games we share/play, thank you so much for everything you have done for us and I wish you the best in your new adventure.
Wow...I still remember when I came about this channel. I was still in the Air Force and sent for my first time overseas to S. Korea. None of my stuff had arrived yet, so I was bored out my mind on youtube burning through data. That's when I came across your weapon workshops for Monster Hunter Generations. I never knew about the series before then and loved how weighty the weapons seemed move. Like all your attacks mattered and button mashing was discouraged. I immediately took a cab to the nearest store and bought a N3ds and Generations(still have no other games for it). Since then I've been hooked on Monster Hunter and loving it. Thank you for the now 6yrs of enjoyment you've brought to my life. I wish you the best.
usually when you see a video titled like this you get a sinking feeling that something bad happened but it's good to know that you're leaving out of your own volition and not some drama. I wish you the best in whatever career you take up next and thank you for all the MH tutorials and guides you did over the years.
You've been an inspiration to me since Monster Hunter 3. There are countless videos I've watched numerous times to help me learn and thrive in my own gaming environment. Your voice always brought me joy and I'm truly sad to hear you're leaving. I know how hard it is to run a channel like this and I'm looking forward to your future personal content, if any. Thank you for all that you've done, Alex.
-Ryan
I just want to say big thank you for all of your hard work though out these years on this channel, I was sticking with you almost since the beginning of it and it was a wonderful time. I wish you everything best in future job/jobs, and also well deserved rest :) You are the best !!
man i will forever remember being a naive lil 13 year old looking up Mh4U content and builds and your channel helped a lot cause i always made full sets as a kid cause it looked awesome and then got into optimizing my damage or making fun builds thank you for your service and amazing content i look forward to the teams content as always but obviously it wont be the same without you
Sad to see you go, but happy that you're looking forward to starting something new. Arekkz, know that without you, I wouldn't have found my love for Monster Hunter World and games onward the way that I did. You will be truly missed. Cheers to new adventures!
Og, Arekkz should go on a hunt with the boys when wilds drops.
All the best with what you want to do in the future
Thanks for showing me the ropes with Monster Hunter World/Ice Borne
You've been synonymous with Monster Hunter World for me and those memories will never go away. Thanks for all of that content! It was incredible
I remember watching your MHW weapon workshop vids. I don't have a job that time, don't have my own consoles too. Now Im enjoying the game and been watching your videos still. I can say you've been part of the journey. Thank you Arekkz! Goodluck with your new adventure!
You will be missed as content creator, but I wish you all the best for your own way and your future! Thank you for everything you have done so far.
Truly an end of an era. Things will be really different without your voice on the channel. But I applaud your decision, it takes a lot of courage and gumption to step into the unknown and I know this because I've done the same as well. Thanks for being THE trusted voice of the community, and I'm sure everyone will be rooting for you no matter where you land.
Wtf, I’m losing my monster Hunter guru
I tried doing UA-cam seriously for half a year and it was immensely stressful and unenjoyable - definitely a grind that puts MonHun / MMO grinds to shame. You should have left earlier when it started affecting your health! Please take it easy to make up for the decade you've given to the community!
Best of luck Alex. From someone who shared a room in London for the D2 beta event. I’m sure you’ll be fab at whatever you choose to do.
I need weapon tutorials from you for wilds tho 😭
Thank you for all that you have done for the channel! You guys have been a leader for youtube channels for so many of us. I've always enjoyed your content and you guys inspired me to make my own channel. Thank you so much for everything! Wishing you the best Arekkz!!
Thank you for all that you’ve done, Alex. From Destiny, to the Division to Monster Hunter and more! I’ve been here for much of the journey and you will be absolutely missed. Thanks For the Memories!
Even though I’ve been playing since MH3U, your MHW videos are what made me go from a player my friends had to carry, to being capable of carrying them when they were in a tight spot too. It’ll be a bummer not to have you, but I’ll definitely stick around because the content your team has produced is fantastic. Best of luck in your new endeavors!
I found this channel back with the first Division game, and I've been hanging around ever since. Its been a great time seeing all of your work and the teams work. Hope you do well man. Good luck, and thanks for all the great content over the years.
i can't get used to not hearing his voice
Its just not the same without that voice 😢
Nooooooooooo leave the beard with us then 😢
Thank you for being a mentor in MH over the years. Good luck on your new endeavors, Alex. Have a good one mate.
Can't forget how much you and the others helped me through my monster hunter journey through your guides and for that I am very much greatful and you almost got me to switch from a Dual Blades main to a Sword and Shield main
Arrekz leaving Arrekz?
you will be missed
I had a feeling, in the last few videos I could hear a sadness in his voice. Best of luck to you mate.
Thanks for all your content! I'm glad you are moving on and doing what's right for you. I'm definitely looking forward towards the new monster hunter and more build videos.
nooooo the "yo whats going on arekks here" is going to be EXTREMELY missed :( as a fellow (small) youtuber i can understand though, this job is hella hard. And people who dont do it say its easy and you get free money by doing nothing all day, wich cannot be further away from the truth. I can understand your struggle, and i can positively say you will start enjoying life once again now! We'll miss you though, but i'm happy to know the other guys on the channel are here to stay. Thanks for all you'we done, especially for monster hunter content. I've always associated MH content with your voice!
Sad to see you go. I remember when I first stumbled upon one of your videos 6 years ago. It's been a pleasure watching your guys' videos. In some ways you were an inspiration for me to start my channel. So thanks for all the good times. And I wish you the best in your new endeavors.
