Also from the description:
"Relic abilities! A word we have not heard in a long time! We break down in this video what is the current status of Relic Abilities and whether they are still happening or being cancelled. We also discuss the purpose of relic abilities appears to be to monetize reworks to give them an incentive "
100% clickbait
Current status is exactly the same as in December.
Still happening or being cancelled is a complete unknown, just as it has been all year.
Relic abilities to monetize reworks is a complete guess and nothing has changed since December so there's nothing new to speculate on in June.
But ok.
I also think the idea of monetizing reworks via relic abilities is a solid idea.
Bottom line is that content creators used to have more to discuss or show on a consistent basis because CG was producing things more consistently. This past year content creators are struggling to show things in videos as there hasn’t been much going on, so they are resorting to more speculation and having to get real creative just to produce videos.
On the contrary, MSF content creators are working overtime as there’s so much going on over there consistently.
I’ve made 22 swgoh videos since June 1st, not including live streams. I have a huge backlog of video requests or other ideas I haven’t been able to get to because I don’t have any additional time to pour into it. And I don’t even have an account over 2 mil GP. And there are a ton of other small YouTubers who are currently on the rise right now and growing at an exceptional rate. It’s less about lack of content from CG and more that some creators are getting exposed for how reliant they were on test servers to make videos.
Interesting take on it and I’m sure there’s an element of truth in it. How many of your videos are reliant on other peoples accounts that you use as basically test servers?
Atleast they are actually videos about how to play the game better now, not speculation based on news from 9 months ago. Who cares where the footage is from.
While I agree just about any bulldog video is more useful and informative than any speculation video by Ahnald, I was responding to Bulldog’s assertion that content creators are being exposed now for their reliance on test accounts in the past.
A lot of Bulldog’s videos rely on other people’s account, basically test accounts for him.
Not to put words in his mouth, but to me it sounds like some other content creators are just lazy and willing to make a useless video for a quick buck, rather than put in effort to get footage from other players and inform the community of teams and strategies they themself cannot test.
A quick search of various content creators for videos put out the last week.
Using your words:
- put in effort to get footage from other players and inform the community = 2000 - 12000 views
- lazy and willing to make a useless video for a quick buck = 40000 - 70000 views
Seems quite clear the community has decided which they prefer.
What incentive does he have to change?
None, but that wasn't the point here at all.
Interesting side note though, relative to followers a 3 day old bulldog vid about GAS beating Kylo has over 1 view per sub, but the Ahnald clickbait vid in question only has .3 views per sub.
