Now that it’s official that SWGOH’s Game changer program has officially ended here are my thoughts about it:1. This frees up game changers to make new content. It sounds like part of the agreeement to be a GC is not to make any... Risqué content. I’ll just predict 2. CG did exert some pressure to stop creating some of the Game Changers most popular content example: Meme Videos. (I’ll post an example below)3. Overall it sounds like there wasn’t just one thing that killed the program... it was a combination of many things: negativity when JKR came out, Risqué content in other channels, branching out into other channels, leaks, misrepresenting teams, control...4. Game changers are saying the program has basically been dead since November. It’s like a boss that doesn’t wants to get rid of an employee... the boss just schedules less and less time till eventually they have no hours anyway. 5. I think it’s beneficial overall. The devs can still give exclusives to any content creator now. Game Changerd finally have closure. Anyone else have thoughts?

Does this mean they’re getting rid of Kyno as well?

Found Ahnald’s video very interesting in how CG was handling with MemeMakers and how they responded with MSFIt’s a shame MSF is no longer a threat, capitalism and free market really shines when you have a direct competition

Honestly I think this is good. CG can make their own promo videos/notes if they want, and the Youtubers can say whatever they they want.It just created a strange relationship that didnt serve anyone well. The devs could not manage expectations and the CGs would over-hype not out of malice but because they are fans and would get caught up in their excitement over a particular character. The GG release is the most recent example but its not the only one. (Which by the way the knee-jerk reaction by the forums of oh my god he sucks by 99% of people was wrong anyway and he is pretty awesome).I much prefer the dev insights that they release now. They CAN manage expectations now and then we can all draw our own conclusions.

Seems like some pretty poor PR to me. From what I’ve read and watched and all the information I’ve been able to find, it seems like CG was upset they couldn’t control the game changers and their content, so they discontinued the program. The program works very well for other EA games but CG got tired of the game changers being, well honest is the best way I can describe it, and wanted to use the game changers as their own personal PR department. When they couldn’t, they basically said we’re taking our toys and going home.

That’s just my personal interpretation of this. I don’t think the game changers’ content is going to change much, but it feels like a voice of the community has been taken away to a certain degree. Rightly or wrongly it makes me feel like CG is trying to hide stuff and wants everything to be viewed how they want it to be viewed and anyone who might have a dissenting view just got shown the door.

Again, that’s just how it looks to me on the outside. I could be completely off base. This is just the feeling I got when I read and heard about this, especially knowing that the program is successful for other EA games.
