Subject: So Machinima might axe Arby 'n the Chief's creator.

It's hard to think Arby 'n' the Chief's only been around for 5 or so years. It feels like so much longer...so many memories. It's strange that something like that can have more of an impact on me than the full-budget crap you see on TV.

I've lost all hope for the Machinima channel now. Other than AnTC and the recent TFS, they haven't released a proper machinima since 2009 or something like that.

Well, I've been economical with the truth.

I honestly still enjoy the show, if they are going to axe him though, at least let him finish the current season.

This world wants to drag you down... And the weight, that guilt they want to hang around your neck, you don’t have to carry it one more step. You think they won’t let you rest, but it’s not up to them. It never was.

There is no limit to how many vids Youtube can host?. . .

I don't see why they would cut him, they are still getting tons of advertising money and views on their channel.


To save money I guess? I mean, his show isn't popular as it used to be, but hardly any of the shows on Machinima ever get over 100k views. Jon's show is within that realm, and there are a ton of other shows they could cut that are far worse imo.
That's only part of it I think. He's had to delay a lot of his videos because of his apparently busy life. A shame really.

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

But that money is all based on views and removing his videos/not uploading new vids means less views Machinima gets and less money they make.

Machinima is just cancer now.
Just absolute cancer.


Remember the last time it uploaded an actual machinima? Like back in 2009.

OT: Maybe this wouldn't be happening if he milked the series, even going as far as cancelling other shows which were also good but reviving arby n the chief too many times.

Seriously, why the hell would you cancel Deus Ex machina 1 episode before the finale but continue arby n the chief after ending the series several times?

Deus ex has an issue with the music used. Something about legalities meant that he could either create the final part without music and be below the standard expected, or just not make it at all.

1. Half-Life 2
2. Mass Effect 3
3. Mass Effect 2
4. Tie between Halo 3 and CoD4
5. Medal of Honor or Spec Ops: The Line

I can't believe people don't like the new plot-centered Arby 'n' the Chief. It still has a ton of humor in it.

I remember how people complained when the show was just dicks and cursing. Now people miss it.

Meh, the show has really gone downhill, same as RvB. Trying to add too much drama to a show that was originally about getting some laughs out.

Also, Jon CJG is an egotistical ass.

Rain, and Jazz.
Halo: Tactical

I'm either a fool or an inteligent man, depending on how sleepy or angry I am.

I originaly made an account on 07.27.2007 but I wanted to link my GT and made this account. Don't forget your passwords!

I've stopped watching it, but I know it had some great moments. One of the reasons why I can't bear to watch it is how he portrays Halo 3 as being something its not.

Funfact: When he first left, Machinima made some -blam!- "LA" episodes and he eventualy returned and made those non-canon.

For those who wish to contact me on Xbox LIVE, my main account is "The 7th Taco", and the one linked with my profile here is only a backup.

No! No, this can't happen! I was looking forward to the upcoming episodes! :(

I've never watched Machinima. They're literally the worst thing you can waste your time on

I don't think you know what "literally" means.

Please come back when you are less stupid.

The main complaint back then was that it was dicks and cursing.

The main complaint now is that it's not dicks and cursing.

I might be misusing irony, I don't know.

I kind of miss it when the show was just random humor. Wedding was my favorite episode.
