Just as good as ever. Also he is making some nice buck on Patreon ($6k)
The production quality is pretty damn high!

[QUOTE=Rixxz2;52296396]100% deserved I honestly can't believe I'd never even heard of this guy up until a year or so ago[/QUOTE] It seems he's getting the short end of the YouTube algorithm stick. I'm pretty sure a lot more than 300 000 people would be interested in his channel.

Holy fuck thats amazing.
[QUOTE=ThatSprite;52297050]It gets worse when you realise he's been doing this for over [b]9 years[/b][/QUOTE] It's so weird since I was subbed to him around the time he started. After years of very little content suddenly he started to produce more regular videos and now his channel grew so much bigger. I was even more surprised to see someone posting a video of his here when that first happened.
These videos never fail to impress me more and more
[QUOTE=_Axel;52296511]It seems he's getting the short end of the YouTube algorithm stick. I'm pretty sure a lot more than 300 000 people would be interested in his channel.[/QUOTE] The biggest struggle with Captain Disillusion is that his content takes a lot of time. He can only put out a video about every month. The only other I know of to do that successfully is Jontron. It's a shame but content that takes as much time and effort to produce as his does, while it does result in quality, it is (maybe) unintentionally completely fucked by youtube's algorithms. Same goes for animations. That said he does what he loves and he makes a living off it now. Having millions of subscribers isn't what being a youtuber's all about, and having a smaller community can be so much more manageable and personal anyway.
The ways he inserted himself as one of the production crew members were incredible
what's up with the facepaint
[QUOTE=SirJon;52298950]what's up with the facepaint[/QUOTE] So he looks more like a superhero
[QUOTE=SirJon;52298950]what's up with the facepaint[/QUOTE] It's kinda strange but I think he looks better with flesh-colored paint on him. His metal body is a bit distracting.
[QUOTE=SirJon;52298950]what's up with the facepaint[/QUOTE] How dare you say that to someone who has been living as a robot for his entire life
the production quality is higher than many TV shows I recall watching when TV was still a thing people watched, pretty amazing
[QUOTE=kariko;52298956]It's kinda strange but I think he looks better with flesh-colored paint on him. His metal body is a bit distracting.[/QUOTE] It's not really facepaint, it's probably some kind of latex mask. Beakman shows it's elastic.
[QUOTE=SirJon;52298950]what's up with the facepaint[/QUOTE] TBH I love his videos but that gimmick has always been kind of silly to me. Also it's gotta suck doing the makeup every video.
[QUOTE=JCDentonUNATCO;52299053]TBH I love his videos but that gimmick has always been kind of silly to me. Also it's gotta suck doing the makeup every video.[/QUOTE] It's not a gimmick, it's just part of costume to his character. Besides he wouldn't do it if he didn't enjoy it.
Could've done without insulting the production teams at the end but it's a fun video either way.
[QUOTE=ZombieDawgs;52299484]Could've done without insulting the production teams at the end but it's a fun video either way.[/QUOTE] but then it's not disillusioning enough
[QUOTE=Annoyed Grunt;52298987]It's not really facepaint, it's probably some kind of latex mask. Beakman shows it's elastic.[/QUOTE] Ah yes, I forgot about that! 7:03 for what Grunt is talking about, but the whole video is great, as always. [video]https://youtu.be/sT_bTnkwLuE?t=423[/video]
