A Discussion about PewDiePie

Tweet

Felix Arvid Ulf Kjellberg, better known to the internet as "PewDiePie" is a famous internet star on YouTube, the most subscribed YouTuber in the world in the world. He specializes in playing video games and "Vlogs" (Video Blogs). He was the first YouTuber I ever watched play video games. I watched his "let's plays" or game play walk-throughs of the first three FNAF (Five Nights At Freddy's) games. FNAF is a horror game in which you play as a night watchmen in a family pizzeria that is comparable to a demonic Chuckie Cheese. I found watching Felix play made it less scary to look at. While I may never play the game for myself to make a comparison, I do know that I personally jump at my own shadow. But I hardly scream in FNAF when I watch someone else play, the same can be said for other games of the horror genre as well. If you don't want to take my word for it, you can try for yourself! Just find someone to watch and watch them play! That said, some people who play games either don't know how to play and take a long time to complete the game, and that's if they do complete it. Others might take longer to complete the game purposefully, by partaking in silly antics that are not part of, or is in any way beneficial to the game play. I find myself frustrated whenever "Pewds" (short for PewDiePie) takes time out of his game play to yell at barrels. I'm not kidding, he seriously does this every time he plays a game and runs into barrels in-game. I don't believe I could watch him play a game that had a castle type setting, it would be un-barrel-able. That said, PewDiePie is a great YouTuber with a large following and was the first official YouTuber I ever watched for the purpose of not just learning song lyrics or other educational purpose. He got me addicted to FNAF and video game horror in general which is now a part of my daily life to watch in my spare time. He has his drawbacks, like the barrel thing mentioned previously. But I cannot discredit him as the start of my YouTube obsession. All in all I would recommend him.
