(I dunno if it's alright to talk about this through an ask but I want to voice my opinion too sorry... I think the problem with MatPat making jokes during his theories is that it takes out any actual development and replaces it with fans that aren't there for theories at all. Making a reference to his Undertale mess isn't funny at all, and I was almost going to seriously think he was going to go in that direction. It also gives him an "excuse" to make multiple parts so he can get more views.)
The fact that my blog has now become an outlet for people to rage against MatPat makes me fucking thrilled
Thereâs a guy I watch named Night Mind, and Nick Nocturn explained it best in this post. I highly recommend you read it in full, but hereâs the short of it:
âIf you want to see the phrase âBiting the hand that feeds youâ in action, look no further than Game Theory. MatPatâs very direction for Five Nights coverage has gone from biting the hand that fed him to actually eating it for the sole purpose of hurting Scott Cawthon while still making money off his work.â
And while specifically about FNAF, this post implies a much larger issue: greed. There was literally no point to splitting up the DDLC Game Theory other than more views, more money. The references to past theories appear to be pandering to the majority of the fanbase that blindly follows him. MatPat doesnât try to be informative or make sense because he doesnât have to. People will watch him and parade his word as gospel and he will make a lot of money.
Also Iâm done breaking up the name so that it wonât appear in the tag because if it shows up in the tag I donât fucking care.
