i saw that you said you were ancient, nah, you're teenager age, maybe. i've been watching the captain since 2014. if you're ancient, im just dead at this point.
okay, it’s time. here we go:
A Comprehensive List of the MCYT Generations
Pre-2010: The Elders
Cryptids. Elusive. Probably more into the game itself than the content creators, but still remembers watching youtubers that have long since faded into obscurity. You remember the very first appearance of Herobrine, and either adore or struggle with the newer updates. You probably really liked the Pewdiepie minecraft series in 2019, because you could relate to his wonder at everything new.
2010-2014: The Golden Age
Most of us at least dabbled in mcyt during this period, but very few were truly pulled into the fandom. You know all the big names: Bajan, Jerome, Sky, Captain, AntVenom, ihascupquakes. A very prosperous time that has been made even brighter by nostalgia. You remember bopping to Revenge and shedding tears over Fallen Kingdom, truly believing that minecraft parodies were the greatest achievement of man. The true test of courage, though, is whether you made it through:
2014-2018: The Lost Generation
The entire mcyt community salutes you if you survived this period, but especially if you joined during it. It shows great personal strength and individual thinking, cause very few channels were much talked about here. You remember some very obscure channels, and likely follow a good mix of old mcytbers and the new mcytbers. You’re accustomed to cum jokes in block games, but would probably cry if Jerome swore on stream.
2019: The Renaissance
You remember watching SMPLive when it was actually live. You remember waiting for new episodes of Pewdiepie’s minecraft series, and crying about Sven. You remember looking forward to monday every week, and watching a6d beef with Keem on twitter. You remember watching Techno breach 1mil, the pure bliss of MCM6, anticipating SMPEarth, wondering who tf the TommyInnt is. You’re the bridge between the Golden Age and the Modern Age, and likely hold more nostalgia for the first age of Youtubers than those from:
2020: The Modern Age
You’re here for the friendships, don’t pretend otherwise. You joined in the age of the Sleepy Bois, the Dream Team, MCC and L’manburg, and you’re living for the family dynamics. You’re accustomed to the power of the twitter stans, and can’t understand the struggle of getting into minecraft when it was less celebrated. You’re probably younger and don’t quite understand all the nostalgia, so have made some stupid mistakes about mcyt lore in the past, but your enthusiasm more than makes up for this.
which age are y’all from? did i get it right?
