Full honest thoughts on react content: it is easy content, but it is not lazy content on its own. Lazy reactions are those that have the full anime episode while the person sits there and occasionally goes "oh." Your react content is front and center. While I may sometimes grind against your rants because of my own attention span, it is far better than no reaction at all because it proves you're 1) engaged with the content and; 2) coming up with your own thoughts and opinions that you are adding to that original content. I'm the kind of person who, if I already saw something and am watching it with someone else, will be more focused on their reactions than what I am watching. I enjoy the experience of being able to follow their own journey through something I enjoyed, and that is what react content does for me. It gets me to enjoy the original thing all over again because I get to see someone else enjoy it too. While reacting may be easier than playing the thing yourself, you have to bring yourself to the table, which is also one of the hardest things to do as you work on managing your responses. I mean, you yourself admitted that funny reactions can be fatal to you via headaches, that certainly increases the difficulty. So never put yourself down on doing reactions, and hopefully you'll keep enjoying the content we want to see you react to.
I enjoy reaction videos because it makes me feel like I sat someone down to show them something I like, and I get to see their reactions to it. It's especially fun when they enjoy it. Not only that, but you usually have stuff to add as well, instead of just letting the video play and laughing every few seconds to remind us you're there. So not only do I get to enjoy the original video again, but there's also commentary and another viewpoint added in that you wouldn't get from the original video.
This video in of itself shows the bonkers quality Bagger's videos are. 4 videos in a year, with their story/setting "preamble" removed *still equaled 3/4th an hour of max quality footage!!*
Kip, there are so many other react content creators who add nothing to a video, not even reacting to what's going on short of a handful of exclamations. You fully embrace the react, not only reacting to the content but pausing to speak your mind and add significantly to every video, even if I may not catch all of them. And you may be a dingus but you are a hilarious, insightful dingus
I think that your reactions to TheRussianBadger are really good and insightful. You add a good amount of commentary to what Badger is saying. I also really like the way you react, mainly the laughter. I don’t know exactly how to describe it, but Badger is so funny that I want to see others laugh at his bits, and seeing you laughing super hard at the parts that made me chuckle somehow makes it a bit funnier. I remember watching someone else react to the lethal company video, and was a little disappointing when they didn’t even laugh at the parts that cracked me up. Anyways, I wanted to say that you’re doing an amazing job with reacting! Keep up the good work! (along with the other things you want to do)
Badger did an amazing job working on his videos, and I watched him a lot and it has been awhile since life has been draining me lately. So I thank him for making those and Kip, I thank you too, for reacting to RussianBadger. I always find some good laughs
Reaction videos are hit or miss for me but it also depends on who I am watching for reactions. When I watch others they are typically making similar reactions or just going off on their own tangents for a few minutes. But when I watch Kip I get excited because when he makes these react videos he shows his appreciation for the creator and how he/she has evolved over time and that this is what TH-cam needs more of. I can't recall which Badger reaction it was specifically but he gave off so much information about the game Badger was talking about and it got me interested because I did not know that until Kip said so. Kip gives honest reviews, brings in more information on what is being shown, but still keeps those same funny moments from reacting to the video he is watching and it makes it fun for me to watch him. Kip even goes back to rewatch videos he has seen before but gives more to it like said before and makes it better. A perfect example of this being the intro to this video. I will always keep coming back to Kips channel for reactions to anything Badger related or anything that catches my eyes on his channel. Keep going you (completely not at all) dingus
Badger's video is great as always, but your insights were also such a delight, excellent work dude! I'd absolutely love if you checked out the works of Thorgi's Arcade or Popcross Studios. Thorgi's fighitng game content is great and has multiple topics(Build the Roster, Let's Make a Sequel, Fighting Game Retrospectives), and Popcross's blend of speedpaints with full-blown storytelling narration is beyond amazing, and you can start with any of his different series(Multiverse Tales, Vigilants, Starseed Psyche).
I hope that happens because that would be amazing (also since i wanna be a game developer I feel like it’s not a coincidence that my top 3 people to sponsor and have play my games would be Kip, renegades react, and the Russian badger which if you don’t know renegades react also watch the Russian badger and are similar to Kip in the way they talk about stuff and sometimes get off the rails) if renegades react and Kip did reactions or played games together that would be an awesome collaboration
first time in the creek pretty much after it was taken back because i missed the beginning, the team of randoms i was with threw my spawn in the middle of Three patrols with a couple ships on the way. i'm prone in a bush crawling to my old machine gun red bolts flying everywhere like i'm fighting stormtroopers. threw all my grenades, called in airstrikes on top of myself shooting everything i saw. meanwhile the other three dudes were off doing some objective after they threw me back into another swarm of patrols to repeat the process, surviving two 500s i threw near me to get the big guys off of me. and i can see why they called it Space Vietnam cause holy shxt that was intense.
I may have mentioned this in a comment before, but I dip my fries and corndogs in mayonnaise, and everyone calls me weird because of it. Not my fault they don't know what good food combos are.
As someone who actively seeks out reaction content, especially that which i consider insightfull and funny. I feel that me being a part of the 1% of kip watchers from last year (according to yt) speaks for itself. I consider you on par with AliciaXLife/Death (soneone who I hold in high regard), and I think the ONLY reason why you arent as popular as her is because of luck and the obvious still present bias against males in vtubing. Ps: im writing this at 5am, so you know its sincere. And thats also my defence if this is entirely incoherent.
Also I think you'd like "Worst Premade Ever" (similar to soviet womble humour), they released a bunch of '____ of 2024" videos. Although I understand if you don't want more laughter induced headaches to deal with.
Hello. I exist. Also, I feel like i missed something. You mentioned it a few times about if you were asked, you would take down your russian badger videos. I don't know why, but it makes me think that something happened, either with badger or someone else.
@@KipReacts Do not let the trolls convince you that you are not a legitimate content creator. Impostor syndrome hits hard people like you and Badger while most of us just appreciate that both of you exist. Keep doing what you do, react content is legitimate and your commentary is leagues more intelligent than the slop that a ton of react channels do which are just reupload with no commentary or even the bare attempt to break down stuff for the viewer.
@@KipReacts Pardon my language but fuck anyone who thinks that, your amazing and one of the few people I've never met in person that I would be willing to die for.
What Kip said, but also a vague standing """issue""" on if you can or can't react to TerminalMontage videos. It kinda just been the overall topic for the last while.
@@KipReactsyou listen way too much to these people. That’s why they feel that they can “bully” you into certain positions. If you like doing react content then do react content. Any of your fans already know the content you do and that it’s transformative, the people complaining are not your current or future fans anyway. Stop capitulating or even listening to them. Nobody except the very loud and ignorant woke minority cares about stuff like this.
Kip the odds you even read this comment is low but fuck it, it needs to be said. You do in fact do good content man. You videos are transformative, some reactions I've seen had people not even flinch when you hear some ungodly "Out of pocket" shit from badger, muchless some other YT people who go that unhinged like Smi77y, Froggyloch, Bricky, "Emperor has TTS", like you actually react behind your model clear enough that we know when a joke hits you, from the Sprite bit, to the Reddit bit, even when you see some cursed shit in a video like a severely bubba'd gun from a Brandon Herrera cursed gun video. Hell you have taught me some shit before and that's a fuck ton more than some reaction channels (*CoughSniperwolfCough*). You're doing a damn good job man, don't put yourself down kip ya purple dingus. Keep it goin man.
@Kip: you may be a dingus, but you are our positively lovable & level headed dingus!
Over 20 minutes longer than the original (of course already watched and supported the original)? We eating good.
Another yapping session by Kip truly!
I honestly love when you bust out laughing by anything unhinged from Badger's crew
@@the117doctor They're just so funny.
