The clip of Quin screaming beyond my ears capability to hear compared to the clip of Ben lightly whispering to his stream showcases the true dichotomy of POE players. Beautiful.
Not always. Some fairly big channels that do it and sit there being worthless. Providing no commentary or insight. Often enough I click a react vid on some channels and go straight to description to go to original video tho
I could name so many youtubers that i started watching because asmongold reacted to them and nowadays where i cant watch asmon anymore because hes a political andy, I'm still watching like 20 youtubers i discovered from him.
I love drama content, the more pointless it is the funnier it gets. At this point I don't even watch normal poe content, I just binge drama reactions from the same ~10 people and belly laugh whenever they make the same three mildly vaid points.
"The reactors." Are there any pure reactors in PoE? I mean, you've done reaction videos, but they are sandwiched in between your original content. Every big PoE creator, that I'm aware of anyways, is doing original content with occasional reactions thrown in.
Sometimes I watch reaction videos because I'm curious to know how one of you guys felt about this particular subject. Sometimes I don't feel like it and I just don't watch it. It's not because you don't like something that it's bad.
watching a reaction is basically get the content you want, narrated by the person you want. having the reaction of ppl is genuine more entertaining. its like movies are more entertaining when watched in a full cinema etc.
There is plenty of parasitic react content, where the reaction part is negligible, and it's really just a reupload of someone else's video. However, that doesn't apply here, as most of the reactions in relation to PoE 2 content contain maybe 20% of the original video, so it's obviously a completely valid critique, and not a shameless reupload of someone else's content.
Exactly! React videos ARE parasitic and shamelessly profiting off someone else's work, however POE2 is not a large enough sub-category to demonstrate this clearly.
@@AnDr3w066 Doesn't matter because copyright law recognizes a transformative work as a new work and the original is not *legally* entitled to any payment, nor is permission required. What @natiixLP is talking about is the abundance of "shorts" where it is literally someone pasting their head in a corner and making faces, or "what do you think about this" at the beginning or end, and even the TV/Movie clips that have some lame music over them and nothing else. Those do not qualify as transformative, and at best are derivative. However the ones that do things such as pause it and discuss their opinions, make corrections or counterpoints, etc. are all primary examples of a transformative content production. Under copyright law, the *resulting* work is entirely copyrighted by the transformer. Thus to claim the money from the secondary video would be a direct violation of copyright as you have no legal authority over that work. YT policies include risk of account termination for false claims, especially repeat ones. Under the DMCA copyright owners have a legal obligation to ensure their claim is legally valid, and can face penalties. Courts have upheld that failure to take into account legal defenses against the claim, such as it being transformative, qualifies as having misrepresented the claim.
@ yes and transformative work has some distinctions. You can’t include the entire original work and call it transformative regardless of how much you add on to it as you as providing a direct replacement to the original content. There is a reason why reactors only react to youtubers and not other media. They tried it and it didn’t go well
UA-cam and Twitch is just people begging for money in a roundabout way. If you agree, great. If you disagree, you are incorrect. Reacting to other peoples opinions/thoughts is the lowest form of this. The majority are guilty of this and should feel bad that they are milking peoples time. I can't wait for people to say something along the lines of "They are providing entertainment" and/or "Why are you here/commenting on this video" as if that disproves my point in any sort of meaningful way. Take literally 2 seconds, re-think that thought and realize you are a dumbass for ever thinking it. If you're unable to come to that conclusion then you need some help. If you managed it, congratulations, you should now spend a lot less time on youtube and doing more productive stuff with your limited time. Life is a ride that will inevitably end, stop wasting it here.
"Reacting to other peoples opinions/thoughts is the lowest form of this." So, your comment, being a reaction to other people's opinions;/thoughts itself qualifies. Note that I am not saying anything about whether you should be commenting, nor am I calling you names for doing so. I am merely pointing out that your rant applies directly to your own comment, and it appears you already know it does and did it anyway. What you offer is merely an opinion, nothing more, no matter how you describe it.
the argument that a react video 'steals' organic views from the OG creator is just not true as much as they want to believe it. I think it only might be applicable if they already have a similar audience and audience size. also your vid has more views in 1 hour than his vid has gotten in 24 xdd
If someone only ever uploads react content, the viewers will either stop watching that person, or know what to expect and be there for it anyways. That is especially obvious looking at people reacting to music or others videos. As long as the quality of the reaction content itself is not as high as the source reacted to (pausing, filters, cut, ...), people will have ample reason to watch the original if they think it deserves to be watched (or not in case of RageGaming), OR already watched it and that is why they look up react content in the first place (especially obvious in the case of music reactions). Reaction content works because there is a demand for blind reactions or opinions, as Lily said, but that is no guarantee for success on it's own.
As long as they're not like Sniperwolf style of reacting and actually use a brain cell to deliver their own insight and opinion, I'm fine with react content. Hell, YaBoyRoshi is one of my favorite channels and they are mainly a react channel, to movies and shows, but the premise is still the same. I think people hate react content because it is everywhere and feels like a plague. It has been the meta for forever.
Yeah so I have been playing PoE for a couple years now. Play fairly casually. Around 200 hours a league and then stop. During the “off season” I rely on people like Ben and Ziz reacting to things to get the most up to date information. So yeah
What % of her streams are her doing react content? I think she add a pretty good insight to the stuff she comments on. If it's not for you then it's best to just avoid it.
It is the only type of PoE2 content that comes up in my feed. Though I guess there isn't anything else to make vids about currently with the lack of new content.
It is a throwback to original UA-cam which had the "reply to this video" feature where you replied via video. It was called something like "Video Response" and the intent was a video thread instead of a text comment thread. However, it got low engagement and they dropped it in ~2006 as I recall. The rise of "react" videos might suggest the feature was merely well ahead of it's time.
My thoughts. React content is great if it can be talked about by the reactor on a level which adds or provides more information on the subject or allows horizontal ideas. Or if you just want to enjoy more time with your favorite content creator. I like Lilys takes on things in the POE space so hearing how lily reacts to certain things happening video wise or tech wise im all ears.
I love watching Reaction Videos and hear the Creators opinions on the Content. But if the Creator is just sitting there eating, what is the Point of the "Reaction"? The sad Truth is that a lot of People use Videos made by other Creators to fill their lack of Content on Stream.
As a typical ds lily hate-watcher, I am truly glad you reacted to this video. The lack of eating and yawning was enraging, but I expected nothing less. Thanks for the video, will rage again next time.
Certain creators have blown up specifically because of people reacting to their content. This is such a nothing burger of a complaint. This dude is just farming or he only based his opinion on an emotional response versus actually doing research.
The guy's an uninteresting clown. Nobody's mad, they're just laughing at a guy trying to defend a content creator who makes videos about chancing Temporalis just because they have over 1m subs and gave him a shoutout.
Theres a reason I saw this video in my feed without ever knowing about the original. Because I trust this creator, and always I will go watch a video thats being reacted to if that video seems good... but in this case it's clearly a waste of time. I wouldn't want to give more traffic to a butthurt ragegaming simp who is diluting our PoE content with trash videos.
I want endless leveling or a paragon system. The Paragon system could be something cool and new. Imagine a league where you get a wisp or soul that hovers at your side and said soul eats/drains ever rare monster you slay to grow a microscopic level stronger but it has a endless level of growth. Or it can be that you can feed it gear (something like phantasy Star where you feed your mag but endless growth) its not like poe is a pvp game with a bunch of nerfing crybabies.
It's all about the nuance here. If I make a PoE video it's for the PoE community. Creators are a crucial part of that community. React content outside of these content creator niches are just straight up degenerate, lazy, and counterproductive. Providing insightful commentary about a video you have expertise in isn't the same thing as broadcasting an entire documentary without the creator's permission. We've just become so detached from the value of the media we consume because of how ubiquitous and cheap it has gotten. As for this guy? Yeah he's a joke. Complaining about PoE community content creators reacting to PoE videos is insanely dumb. None of them have original content, they all steal their content from a video game so who cares if they watch another creator's video? If those creators cared they'd just file a DMCA take down request, but they don't. It basically never happens.
They don't file DMCA takedowns because they know that a properly transformative work establishes a new copyright work they do not have rights to, and that filing false claims puts them at legal risk under DMCA. Also, it puts them at risk of TY shitting their channel/account down. They may have tried once and got a warning from YT, or they talked to someone who knew it and told them, or looked it up themselves.
React content can be good or bad. If you don't really add much to the video, you shouldn't do it. And you also have to be someone who's opinion is valued, or you need to be funny, or both. This is why Asmon is so good at it, he is funny, and he also makes a lot of good points himself that are relevant to the video.
honestly even though you've clearly started making react videos to ride the wave of interest in poe 2, i 100% respect the hustle, get your bag. you're an important part of the original POE community and you should continue telling these blowins to crawl back into their holes. frankly it would have been better if poe 2 was only open to existing poe 1 players so we didn't have to deal with these losers and their shit-tier opinions using our community to collect views for their own channels. but that was never going to happen so it's good we have reaction videos from established poe creators instead.
Personally, I can't be bothered watching more than a handful reactions a year. Sure, most like it, but I have only that much time because I rather play than watching someone talking about someone else.
Reaction content is fine, we like to have the trash people like rage gaming put out parsed, it can also help us meter where we think our favorite creators stand on things that we might disagree with. This dude is just slurping rage gamings dogshit info. This Lily and RageGaming thing reminds me of the situation between bloomsie and that southpark AI content creator that pretended it was fine, they even defended it the same way.
Never interacted with any yt content about poe2 so far, but you do a great job at posing your criticisms (+ or -) in a well-constructed and rational way. Through yours, I've been able to educate myself a bit more about poe2 and not fall into some misinformed manner to do stuff in game, so thanks. It's now obvious to me that there is some legitimacy for some content and less for some others :). You fall into the 1st category and that guy in the second, obviously, on that matter. Reactions are useful, see? 😁
The people watching a reaction video are watching for the person reacting. The content that is being reacted to is secondary. Now, when the thing being reacted to is good, most people who watch the reaction are either aware of the original, or watched it, and at least a small portion of the reactor's will go to the original. Those who don't, can't be considered "stolen" because they likely wouldn't have gone to the original video in the first place. The ideal situation, in my opinion, is it's reasonable to give the original video a week to attract the audience. Basically being considerate and charitable to the original maker. Also editing out bits where there might not be much input by the reactor, but that's going an extra mile. TLDR; you can't consider the views a reactor gets being people who *now* won't watch the original, because it's more likely they never would watch the original. That's how content logically works.
what you are failing to consider is that you can watch this all you want on twitch but then you upload the same shit on youtube for an extremely low effort content. and that is fine, i love watch tons of react streamers but atleast have the decency to clip out the vod from stream rather than showing all of the original video in consideration
While react content might not be destroying Poe, that's far fetched. What react content is, it's the most lazy content a creator can do,it requires zero effort,you just ramble and watch a video,prove me wrong please 😂
His video made it seem like only path of exile streamers do reaction videos lol😅. Reaction videos are exclusive to poe. I'm not even sure what he was going for with that video but he missed every mark 😂. Careful guys 2025 will be the year path of exile dies not because of devs but because reaction videos and the algorithm. Rip
@@dslily getting paid in attention is nice but isn’t really “fair” for the entire source video being used. There is no doubt that value is added with reactions but for the original creator to get 0% of the revenue generated from the reaction isn’t entirely fair.
@@dslily snark aside. 1) arguing that the video has lost the juice further down does not automatically grant you right to use the video in its entirety which isn’t fair use. You still don’t own the right to that content as you wish. Neither does arguing that the original creator gets some benefit magically grant you ownership to again reupload the entire video with your input. 2) there being a demand for reaction content does not automatically justify it either. There is a reason why reaction of this type only occurs to youtuber content in that type of format (literally having the entire source video play). Its not that serious and I don’t expect you to argue against something that benefits yourself either. My points are strictly for reactions that include the entire source video.
Cause reaction videos killed Poe1 over the last 10 years people were making reaction content 😂 hes just upset he got a bad reaction to his content cause it was trash
You’re the minority bud. It’s completely human to share our opinions of things with each other and talk about things. You just want to live in your bubble :)
I can't even bother watching this and I'm sure this video is stupid but to be fair I'm sick of react content in general but I don't really have anything against it since if I actually care about the topic I just click on the react video and than click the link in the description to watch the original video. As long as that link is there I don't see how reaction content can really be a problem.
Reacting content is in some way a wide variety by itself, some are jokes other are very serious analysis and so on. Some ones can work as a clickbait but it simply that a fraction of the whole amount. A high viewers account only pumps the view of a lower viewers account. Agreed, this is only a rage bait video of this "content creator". also i am pretty sure he want free publicity baiting and that makes him a clown by himself.
One day Lily's glasses will finally make their escape.
Needs one of those neck attachments. The glasses leash.
She's very beautiful one day we will see her with no glasses ❤
Ok, the guy did get one thing right. After watching this I have no interest in watching his original video.
You can't anyway, the video is already privated.

Creators properly credited always benefit from Reaction content. Always Symbiotic and Mutually Beneficial.
Taking the gloves off for this take - react content only works if you've got a personality worth watching and an opinion worth hearing.
I lack the personality and it still works lmao
@@dslily I would argue that gives value to the react since it sounds more messured compared to someone personalitying all over the video lol

Dexykai is just radioactively rehashing DarkViperAU video "The True Harm of Reaction Content" which is actually a good take on the problem.

holy djephixa 🫡 I used to blast ur music 24/7 playing minecraft now I gotta check out that video and ur newer music
Cheers, I followed your crossbow build at launch.
I like the react content, I just wish Lily would yap more. I'm usually more interested in her thoughts on the subject than the video itself.
she had amazing symbiosis with dexykai in this one
The video aparently is gone, so reacting to the video also killed the video!
Is rather chance ingenuity belts all day and make multiple mirrors then watch this gremlin parasite react to quin or ben stealing them contents.

LMAO, i wanted to go downvote the video you're "reacting" to.

I'm just here to watch Lily get stuck in trades in the least convenient and time consuming ways imaginable.

So the video you made this about folded quicker then a lawn chair and is now private. Does that make you majority share holder of said content now
yes and I will be bringing it back bigly, it'll be the best content you've ever seen
People have forgotten about the magic word called NUANCE. Reaction in itself is not evil/bad, bad actors and content stealers are though.

honestly even though you've clearly started making react videos to ride the wave of interest in poe 2, i 100% respect the hustle, get your bag. you're an important part of the original POE community and you should continue telling these blowins to crawl back into their holes. frankly it would have been better if poe 2 was only open to existing poe 1 players so we didn't have to deal with these losers and their shit-tier opinions using our community to collect views for their own channels. but that was never going to happen so it's good we have reaction videos from established poe creators instead.
Personally, I can't be bothered watching more than a handful reactions a year. Sure, most like it, but I have only that much time because I rather play than watching someone talking about someone else.
POE2BAD
reaction content is lazy...but the bigger problem is that poe is in such a bad place, that reaction videos are needed for filler
His video's gone, can't seem to find it on his channel. Bro got omega cooked
Reaction content is fine, we like to have the trash people like rage gaming put out parsed, it can also help us meter where we think our favorite creators stand on things that we might disagree with. This dude is just slurping rage gamings dogshit info. This Lily and RageGaming thing reminds me of the situation between bloomsie and that southpark AI content creator that pretended it was fine, they even defended it the same way.
imagine how these days will be remembered before full release
I mean given reaction content is litrally the MOST popular genre of gaming content on the entire platform by FAR imma say he's completely wrong
Stealing other people's content is not parasitic, says the person who steals other people'S content.
Never interacted with any yt content about poe2 so far, but you do a great job at posing your criticisms (+ or -) in a well-constructed and rational way. Through yours, I've been able to educate myself a bit more about poe2 and not fall into some misinformed manner to do stuff in game, so thanks.
It's now obvious to me that there is some legitimacy for some content and less for some others :).
You fall into the 1st category and that guy in the second, obviously, on that matter.
Reactions are useful, see? 😁
leeches are parasites so reactors are parasites bruh. but watching them is still entertaining
What, you are telling me, that words have an actual meaning? and simply dont mean what I want?
The people watching a reaction video are watching for the person reacting. The content that is being reacted to is secondary. Now, when the thing being reacted to is good, most people who watch the reaction are either aware of the original, or watched it, and at least a small portion of the reactor's will go to the original. Those who don't, can't be considered "stolen" because they likely wouldn't have gone to the original video in the first place.
The ideal situation, in my opinion, is it's reasonable to give the original video a week to attract the audience. Basically being considerate and charitable to the original maker. Also editing out bits where there might not be much input by the reactor, but that's going an extra mile.
TLDR; you can't consider the views a reactor gets being people who *now* won't watch the original, because it's more likely they never would watch the original. That's how content logically works.
what you are failing to consider is that you can watch this all you want on twitch but then you upload the same shit on youtube for an extremely low effort content. and that is fine, i love watch tons of react streamers but atleast have the decency to clip out the vod from stream rather than showing all of the original video in consideration
hmmm no actually lily is entitled to that content because reasons
y tho?
it sounded like for 25% of the video you were fighting back a burp
holy shit, reading his stuff at ultra speed.. do you see the world in slowmo ? 😂
While react content might not be destroying Poe, that's far fetched. What react content is, it's the most lazy content a creator can do,it requires zero effort,you just ramble and watch a video,prove me wrong please 😂
Destroying it? No. Is it bad content? IMO, yes.
Based on his voice it's satire
His video made it seem like only path of exile streamers do reaction videos lol😅. Reaction videos are exclusive to poe. I'm not even sure what he was going for with that video but he missed every mark 😂. Careful guys 2025 will be the year path of exile dies not because of devs but because reaction videos and the algorithm. Rip
React content is more closer to commensalism than symbiotic IMO but can lean either way.
Sure whatever but you dont get expressed permission im assuming which is the most important factor to consider
And the original creators don’t get paid for the use of their content
both of these comments are addressed in the video
@@dslily getting paid in attention is nice but isn’t really “fair” for the entire source video being used. There is no doubt that value is added with reactions but for the original creator to get 0% of the revenue generated from the reaction isn’t entirely fair.
@@AnDr3w066 this is addressed in the video try watching it
@@dslily snark aside.
1) arguing that the video has lost the juice further down does not automatically grant you right to use the video in its entirety which isn’t fair use. You still don’t own the right to that content as you wish. Neither does arguing that the original creator gets some benefit magically grant you ownership to again reupload the entire video with your input.
2) there being a demand for reaction content does not automatically justify it either.
There is a reason why reaction of this type only occurs to youtuber content in that type of format (literally having the entire source video play).
Its not that serious and I don’t expect you to argue against something that benefits yourself either.
My points are strictly for reactions that include the entire source video.
Cause reaction videos killed Poe1 over the last 10 years people were making reaction content 😂 hes just upset he got a bad reaction to his content cause it was trash
Oh its the copypasta Dexykai bro, why am I not surprised....
Wait WHAT?! What the actual... you DONT PLUG INTO USB?!
I watch lilys content because she has just the right amount of the 'tism
React content is destroying UA-cam lol.
You’re the minority bud. It’s completely human to share our opinions of things with each other and talk about things. You just want to live in your bubble :)
@@stu.chainz React content is effectively stealing content, not sure what you're yapping about
You aren't an authority on it. Stop having an opinion on stealing something that isn't able to be stolen
@@ThickRedPaste i dont need to be an authority to realize that, just takes 1 brain cell to do so.
@@tiltingart9276 intellectual property doesn't exist. Online property certainly doesn't exist
I can't even bother watching this and I'm sure this video is stupid but to be fair I'm sick of react content in general but I don't really have anything against it since if I actually care about the topic I just click on the react video and than click the link in the description to watch the original video. As long as that link is there I don't see how reaction content can really be a problem.
Reacting content is in some way a wide variety by itself, some are jokes other are very serious analysis and so on. Some ones can work as a clickbait but it simply that a fraction of the whole amount. A high viewers account only pumps the view of a lower viewers account.
Agreed, this is only a rage bait video of this "content creator". also i am pretty sure he want free publicity baiting and that makes him a clown by himself.
