So Rag Tagg is quitting apex

Kinda sad that a lot of streamers and content creators are giving up on the game.

I quit this game fully since the beginning of the new season but I still watched a few content creators and Rag was my favourite, an average player who made great narrative content what was fun to watch.

Now he's quitting too.

In my opinion it just reflects that this game has nothing new to offer, and how the mentality of the player base has poisoned what's left

  • That sucks.  Ragg Tagg is great, very funny dude. 

    This game can be really bad for some people that way.  If the game makes things worse for him emotionally, then he should quit.

    Tbh I kinda saw this coming when he first switched from daily videos to a long format single weekly video release and then soon after they turned into normal length videos.  Besides his own specific personal problems, notice that almost all of the YT Apex creators who I follow have dramatically reduced the amount of content they are releasing.  One obvious example: Rich (iTemp) went from hitting two years without missing a single day of a video release to focusing on his COD channel and only releasing Apex videos a couple times a week.  Clearly it's not a great time to be an Apex CC.  Most of them have occasionally talked about how skipping even just a day or two a week leads to the the algorithm reducing their visibility, leading to a significant drop in the number of views their new videos get.  Something's done changed.

    Rag Tagg is my favorite streamer, I generally can’t stand any other streamers 😂. I will be sad to see him go, but I know it’s for the best, everyone needs change in their life. He has my best wishes and my views if he ever decides to come back, to any game. Truly the greatest gamer, no matter what he says in his videos.

    "One can only handle getting owned so many times lol, even the gutter tier."

    I used to get a kick out of his stuff, and I'm sorry he's giving it up... but if that guy was "gutter tier" I shudder to think how anyone would describe me.

    @reconzero Don't you know my friend, they are the newest pro streamer here at the boards, who can't quite control their words and are worried they will get banned from the game before they become famous.

    They are also, I assume based on behavior, 12. Maybe 14 max.
  • @Renegade_Prime86 While I have not been famous like him. I can completely understand the taking a break.

    While being famous might seem like it's all fun. It can actually be extremely draining mentally.

    Hoping we'll see him come back in the future. He's a great content creator and a great person to watch.

    @Renegade_Prime86 meh ea is ready for playerbase dying off... Add few heirlooms, 1 new champ or smth and call it apex 2. * blizzard did it and it worked cause people are easy like that...
  • @Renegade_Prime86 I just don't like that Apex is BR only, especially considering too that Respawn's record as a studio is pretty clean in the AAA FPS space. Look at the controversies surrounding ActiBlizz, Ubisoft and Riot Games for instance as a comparison.

    I WANT people to leave Apex UNTIL Respawn gives something for the non-BR fans and encourages them to step away from spending upwards of $50 every year or two on CoD just for non-BR.
