Yeah I prefer it with the old format, but I think they should keep this one, for some reason when people put Minecraft on these videos they just do better.
Yeaaaa, I also prefer the older format. The background games just distracts me, and next minute, I have no idea what the story is about, cuz I was so focused on the background lol
the issue is NOT the background footage, sure the minecraft background footage is better, HOWEVER, the issue is that you COMPLETELY changed the editing style to the TIKTOK style, it is designed for those with low attention span, if you are watching long videos you do NOT need it, and the captions just add insult to injury, *everyone* wants you to go back to the old style, not a single person likes this new style more than the old style. It will only hurt your channel more and more, please, listen to us and go back. At least one official statement.

Please, please leave out the gameplay footage. Please just show the posts. It is sooo much calmer to read. I love to read along the posts but this is really stressfull.
Just gotta chime in with everyone else saying that the old format was better. I literally scrolled down to not see the video so I could listen in peace.
Noooo, you guys are so interesting! You don’t need the folder, the same formatting as videos to try to keep you entertained while telling boring stories!
I always watch emkay videos because the ones with minecraft/subway surfers make me nauseous/dizzy when watching.. kinda sad that emkay is now turning into the exact same as every other reddit thread video🥲
Alright, review. The Minecraft parkour gameplay is less distracting so good job making a change but that wasn’t what we were asking we said to get rid of the subway surfers Your content strayed away from other askreddit UA-cam channels, this channel has a human voice actor who adds their opinion to the post, has good editing and is way better than other askreddit channels with their text-to-speech bots and clickbait thumbnails. Maybe the background changed because you guys got less view’s when it didn’t partake in common mind numbing UA-cam practices? Maybe it was just an experiment? Well whatever it was this type of content is not favored by your channel’s community, I’m sure you get the point after so many comments but this is genuinely upsetting and turns me away from the ask emkay channel A blank background can keep my attention and will let me have interest in the actual post than the mind numbing Minecraft visuals of which distract me But I am proud you made a change
Woo! Love the confession videos, so incredibly interesting to hear what others have done. Or want to get off their chest. Also please revert to the old format No gameplay, seriously.
Why isn't anyone from Emkay actually reading the comments... Please just stop with the background games, everyone is saying it. And it's not better just because it's another game, people who genuinely love this channel want it to be back to the original format, it was so much better before!
I wonder if forgetful sister struggles with remembering dates in general. I do and one thing i hope my loved ones know is that i do love them and my forgetfulness is mostly outside fo my control and not cause i dont care. Im glad the OP reminded the sister as it sounds like she cares a lot about the grandma too and probably would have been upset at herself for not coming over if she hadnt been reminded.
As a linguistics student, and as someone who has done subtitling assignments, I know most people can read up to 12 characters per second. Anything more than that and most people will just get tired trying to follow along. And above all, the subtitles aren't needed. The format with the lines of the reddit post being revealed as they were told was perfect.
Please for the love of Slazo go back to the original format. I love reading along to the narrators reading the posts. I don't need subtitles in front of Minecraft Parkour, Subway Surfers, or other types of gameplay I could easily look up myself as well as a second of the actual Reddit threads!
the minecraft is an improvement, but not better, tbh the shorts format is BETTER than this (the post and replys are shown the whole time not just popped up and then quick subtitles)
I tried but couldn't make it even four minutes in. I fully own it up to personal health problems. The Minecraft bg is dizzying, the subtitles make it hard to follow along and process anything, and the whole video is just too much going on at once. And again, I know that's on me because of my own health problems. I miss the old style with full posts and chill background. Doing that was what made y'all stand out and be a relief to tune into. Narrators still rocking it though!
i much prefer the minecraft over the subway surfers, but please return back to having the full text on the screen! i am a visual person and trying to keep up with the fast text is difficult. most of the time i like to read it and then hear the narration or read while the narration is going,,
Minecraft is... better than subway surfers? I miss the simplicity though... Just text and words, far easier for me to pay attention to and follow along with, and much better for having on casually, less distractions is good for me!
I would really REALLY love it if you didn't assume that the problem was the game being used in the format and not the format itself... Please just revert to the old format of showing the whole story.
Guys, I give it a week. But if the gameplay background stay, I don't think I can. Just too distracting. And the text on top? Either skip it fully, or just show the post. Must even be more editing like this compared to the old format.
Go back to the old text format, I don’t care if this lets people watch the videos longer because they’re forced to listen to the whole thing, it’s more convenient to be able to following along and expect what’s coming next.
as someone with dyslexia, this style of video is really hard to read. i rely on captions for comprehension, but the word by word ones don't translate to my brain well. ):
askemkay PLEASE dont give into urges to put subway surfers, minecraft, HECK even a clip from a family guy episode i know some of us have low attention spans and we need something to distract us once in a while but PLEASE dont put gameplay in the backgrounf of episodes
this is getting to the point where ima unsub now. you guys were one of my favorite channels bc it gave me a break from that overstimulated feel of other videos and that was hard to find. I mean at least the main channel isn't like this.
I understand where everyone is coming from on the “I liked the original formatting! Please go back” because yes, it’s easier to follow. But I usually listen to these in the background, so it doesn’t bother me as much! Everyone else, you’re allowed to have your opinions!
I always have your videos in the background. Flat background makes it easy to focus on the thing I'm doing, these hurt my eyes and make it hard to focus on what I'm doing. Please, go back to the original format... these hurt everyone's eyes.
The Minecraft parkour gameplay is a little better, and to be frank I watch *ugh* shorts with it in the background quite frequently, but this inherent laziness isn't what I've come to expect from Emkay. Sure, the Subway surfers was worse, but this is hardly better. Just go back to the old editing style.
If you guys have to put gaming in the background, do something more hardcore than parkour. Bloodborne boss fights, Blasphemous, Grime, Hollow Knight. Shit, even Tony Hawk lol at least that would be enjoyable, but a lot of us would prefer you guys go back to your old style videos
I don't understand why everyone is losing their minds over the gameplay in the background. I mean, i get it, people liked the original format more, and they're entitled to that opinion. I personally prefer the new because on the off chance I'm not listening in the background it keeps my eyes busy while i listen to the stories. It's better this way than me having UA-cam windowed while I'm on Facebook watching some dumb 5mc video to keep my eyes busy

DID THEY THINK THE ISSUE WAS SPECIFICALLY SUBWAY SURFERS??? 💀
another misstep
Changing from subway surfer to minecraft is a small step in the right direction, but we just want the original format back, no gameplay
The Minecraft parkour is a little better, but I would much prefer if you guys went back to the original format please.

Actually, all the videos since background footage was introduced (although I haven't checked this video yet) have less views. Which is good to me.
please, dont bring background gameplay videos to the main channel

I hope they will change next time and if they doesn't well guess I'll just unsub.

shorts
with it in the background quite frequently, but this inherent laziness isn't what I've come to expect from Emkay. Sure, the Subway surfers was worse, but this is hardly better. Just go back to the old editing style.

The moving background kills any mood to even view the video. Please go back to the old format.
to be honest, im fine with it just being something in the background, but GET RID OF THE SUBTITLES
If you insist on gameplay, please keep the story up instead of word for word captions.
I don't like the Minecraft gameplay but it's okay not as bad bad
Hi
JUST GO BACK TO THE OLD STYLE
No more gameplay background!
Minecraft is better than subway surfers, but pleeaasseee change back to original format!!
Maybe dont do text over the video? I prefer the old style, this new style is overwhelming
this ain't it chief
Can you either please calm down with the games in the background or not keep them at all they’re really distracting because of the outstretch
GET RID OF THE DAMN BACKGROUND
finally a new background perfer the old format but this is okay thanks for listening to us!
yay im like 69, lol
anyone else get dizzy from the tiktok style? genuinely this is so overstimulating
I don't understand why everyone is losing their minds over the gameplay in the background.
I mean, i get it, people liked the original format more, and they're entitled to that opinion.
