I'm okay with less episodes

At this point, he has made soooooooo many hours of content to watch, that I'm really not mad about the less often uploads. There ARE a lot of bad games on various consoles that I can think of that he hasn't done, but honestly I kinda like the direction he has been going lately. He has been doing what can only be described as video game oddities, and he still does the occasional traditional episode (Darkwing Duck, Beavis and Butthead, etc.) and I also like his other stuff. I don't get why people want JUST AVGN and nothing else of his...even though they do because the other stuff gets plenty of likes and views. He's a likable guy, and that never really went away. Just quit your complaining and appreciate all the guy has done. At least he's not Doug Walker

I think because when AVGN was at its height he was releasing a new episode every two weeks and was completely focused and dedicated to the show. That meant more consistency in the writing and characterization because he wasn't taking breaks from it. His whole worklife was producing AVGN. Once the movie started production and his child was born, time became scarce and so did the episodes. But because of the schedule he kept at the show's height, that's what a lot of his fans wanted and expected all the time. . Obviously that's not entirely realistic for a guy in his 30s because life eventually gets in the way and compromises have to be made.

I'd rather he keep it going with a new episode every now and then exploring new *beep* that comes his way. He's covered pretty much all the major *beep* from past decades and it's nice to have it come back when it does. Better than just deciding to end it because with the concept of AVGN there's always going to be content to explore that doesn't require more than a couch and a camera.
