I miss the old Retsupurae... The Let's Play with Youtube thread changed my life. We need to start our own Retsupurae 2.0. Who is in?

New Retsupurae is also dead.

The old stuff died out because everyones consoles now record games/stream so this content isnt uploaded in 6 minute snippets to youtube but instead on streams nobody watches or even knows exist.

And the name is, uh, bad

So what is your 3.0 proposal?

I mean, the 3.0 is kinda Slowbeef's Visual Novel Book Club or the Fight Palace.

I think we can reuse Twitch content on Youtube. We might be demonetized. We can do a twitch invasion NWO style.

I feel like these are fun but not retsupurae necessarily. I like the concept of virtual novel book club quite a lot, and thought it was a good move on Slowbeefs part but no idea if it was successful or rewarding for them.

I feel like this loses the magic a little as a large part to me of the charm was basically heckling the laziness to upload a poorly captured video that demonstrated no skill, insight, or comedy, and then unceremoniously dumping it to youtube with the video ending in the posters panic as they realize they are late for work.

Theres also an extremely fine line between making fun of something lazy and something that is a person just experimenting and trying stuff out or uploading solely for their friends enjoyment and I feel like part of the reason they stopped doing that format is because it got harder and felt meaner.

goons will say that you're "terminally online" because you're a firm believer in Juche ideology but they will also read/watch/listen to someone else making fun of someone else's playthrough of some stupid japanese computer dating sim nobody gives two shits about.

Once it stopped being about mocking terrible LPs it stopped actually being Retsupurae.

It was usually pretty good. I occasionally go back to watch some of them like the MuscleBomber one. The fat guy who wanted people to draw him in MUGEN was one of my favorites:

Can’t find the second one where he does the Haruhi dance though. :(

But you’re not allowed to make fun of people on the internet in the year 2020, so I think we’re supposed to be “above” them now. Sorry OP

On closer inspection it appears the Dahir Insaat videos are not, in fact, nuked any more. Good news there then.

Back in the day it was a lot harder to track people down and harass them about their lovely videos unless they mentioned their own username in the video itself, but now it's as easy as reverse image searching any frame from the video and you'll get the original source. That plus how annoyingly vicious people can act over incredibly minor infractions like "made a bad let's play" means its time has passed OP.

Also a number of the super old lovely let's plays that got RPed were posted on SA where people could make fun of them anyway (like Deceased Crab), but that doesn't really happen anymore.

I find it amusing they built a brand for years off a throwaway joke, and a really stupid name that's super hard to spell. Youtubers were flipping their poo poo, they were so mad at being laughed at by 3 cackling goons. Then Retsupurae channel got banned, they remade it 'Ret's Pray' (which would have been better as it's easier to spell.) It was just a crazy wild fun time on the SA end.

The problem was, at first they were just two random dudes making fun of really bad let's plays. Once you start getting a fanbase, it really quickly becomes the big guy picking on little kids.

I do not want it to come back for the same reason I wish MST3K didn't come back. The people who cared stopped caring and moved on. Also the name is racist and really does need to be changed.

Also YouTube changed its ToS along the way where even if they wanted to make fun of a large man eating dozens of pizza rolls, Youtube wouldn’t allow it.

I liked some of Deceased Crab, he did an lp with a lady he married (madam luna), of Shadowgate... it was pretty good! I'd be very curious to know how some of those that were RP'd felt, if they were harassed. That's yea, not cool.
