Aye, Drizzt was a lot better when he was a theorist and just did analysis/discussion stuff too. But he started getting too much hate on his videos around Big Mom and Udon or even as far as back as a WCI stream with Brago and people started calling him "Drag Down" and it got to him I think over time.
First he embraced it but then he decided to take the "Dark Emperor" thing quite literally/seriously after someone made a great meme edit of him with that. Thats when he really started fixating on the negativity although his "Defecation videos" didn't help ofc (thankfully not literal defecation lmfao).
I quite like him as a person but I think with his love for Seinen and especially Berserk by far, its really affected his expectations and thus enjoyment of OP too. Now that Miura died and especially before finishing the series, it such a horrific situation for the fanbase of Berserk to be in so thats probably affecting him too naturally. He really liked Miura too.
If people didn't villainise him so much and gang up on him, constantly making fun of and attacking him it would help. I've seen this mob mentality, group bullying behaviour on streams of other YTers where he is a guest, especially Bragos and Drizzt becomes the desginated villain and laughing stock of it. The fact they left him in the "background" of the last Reverie really pissed me off, he tried to play it off as helping with the "technical side" of it but I'm sure either they didn't want him to "ruin the mood" as he's been accused of doing on streams with others and or he didn't want to deal with being the villain and joke of the community on stream again.
He does great analysis and he is pretty smart too at least but when he started working on a 40 page plus at least, something like 40,000 word plus at least essay I think on the Downfall of OP, even I was thinking that is TOO MUCH lmaooooo! I haven't watched even part 1 of it as I haven't got the patience for it plus such overwhelming criticism and negativity would be too much even for me!
Yeah, I've seen some people become much worse after becoming full time Youtubers. I can't remember who right now but a Youtuber I liked said they were going full time on Youtube now and I was like "oh no....please dont!" hahaha! I rarely know decent full time Youtubers who aren't toxic and dont have toxic communites too and are just chill and such.
Brago really went downhill once his BDA channel started and blew up so much especially, plus watching people donate hundreds of dollars even literally on his streams is really off putting too. I feel Brago has really turned up the wank and as you said repetitive content posting on BDA Law and its very obnoxious and annoying, reminds me of certain other channels too, especially Grandline Review, LegendMac and such.
I heard rumours that Ohara steals theories from Yuderon and the Japanese OP community generally and translate them and acts as they are his own original ones but I'm not sure if that is true or not, there is PLENTY of theory stealing in the OP community for MANY years now ofc, so I wouldn't be surprised either.
I remember when Ohara was around 50k subs and he didn't seem as bad by far. I didn't like him but he was never this bad. He was comparable to Morj but both of them have gotten a lot worse, especially with Ohara who blew up MASSIVELY and I'm not even how! I know one big theory video he did really blew up massively, went viral or so and that was it?
King Recon is the one I constantly see with the most consistent postive comments by other fans in the OP community, not ever seen anything bad said about him I don't think? I know hes one of the OGs, one of the first OP Youtubers or so?
Speaking of which, a certain other one who you mention, KOL ofc, I find him pretty funny but he can be very OTT and his fanbase, the less said the better just like BDAs hahahaha! But KOL is very entertaining and he inspired the best memes in the community regarding the OP youtubers so I respect him for that plus I love that he is such a Katakuri and Enel stan too haha!
Brago is still pretty likeable as a person imo, I had some great laughs and such watching a chapter stream of his semi recently but I couldn't do it regularly I don't think. I just find OP Youtube so insufferable these days, it used to be so much better, especially back in the days when there was a lot of small OP theorists as well as a few big ones and almost none of them at least were anywhere near as obnoxious/insufferable/toxic etc as certain ones now lol.
OP gets milked so extremely hard on Youtube, wanked, worshipped etc so hard and its exhausting. I just look at memes, OSTs and my favourite scenes on there from OP, I stay away from chapter reactions/discussions and such and even I stopped watching Tekking too but I have nothing against Tekking, I think he's great and pretty respectful and such generally.
I used to like the Red Force Podcast guys too, they're pretty cool. Nothing against them too, I just gave up on OP Youtubers pretty much these days.
I turned to Drizzt as I discovered he was the only one openly criticising OP and Oda and doing it unashamedly, despite the sheer amount of hate he got too. It was extremely catharthic for me, it really helped me to have someone who made me feel like I wasn't crazy for not blindly enjoying and consuming OP and seeing the flaws with it currently and such. He is also very funny in his own ways and such too, I enjoyed his memes/jokes/humour more than anything but his analysis was great too.
