hey guys! I would like to remind you that videos like this can spread hate to the people mentioned and pressure them into quitting, which isn't helpful to anybody! LilMac for example, was making unique stuff until he essentially got harassed out of the community! So you can have an opinion, but that doesn't mean you should make it personal! Thanks for listening to my TedTalk!
I think yall just need a better definition of what a commentary is. Strictly talking about yourself and playing like crane or kaysu did is a more pure commentary. But recently challenge videos and collabs have started to be considered as “commentaries”. So if you aren’t going to draw a line there, then any talking through a topic becomes a commentary. That essentially leaves only 3 categories of video: story videos, event videos, and “cOmEnTaRiEs”. By the definition we have somehow switched to, people like ignacio would be commentary youtubers, and I would argue that potaopie and oficey are commentary youtubers But really, in the end trying to antagonize a category of content is just stupid, watch what you enjoy watching and make the types of things you want to see
Every video where somebody talks is a commentary video, because they are making a commentary of the situation, and even videos without talking if anything appears in chat that is also a commentary smh
no these kinds of videos get old because no one has their own personality and just act like Technoblade except 100x worse + with a clickbait bedwars title and thumbnail, same tonality and everything it's like watching ai generated hive videos nothing wrong with inspo/influence but some of u are just like robots. then it's demoralizing when that gets 50k views over something with actual effort in it
personally, i don’t think there’s anything wrong with commentaries or similar types of content. it would just be nice if there were also creators in the hive community doing more creative and unique ideas, even if less often.
@@Katninja956 I don't wanna seem like I'm promoting my channel, but I am one of those people, my most recent videos such as "I made a crater I Skywars" only got 64 views and my most RECENT video is "Hide and Seek with the random command" only got 30 views, it's kinda sad that people who do creative ideas are noot recognized
@KampMiggy it's ok to promote videos, shh don't tell anyone, but I promote my videos all the time! Since I'm a animator and make animation videos, I can say that I'm a underrated hive animator in comments that is just me talking about something about the topic, while saying about me being as a animator.
i largely disagree with this video on a whole for multiple reasons: 1) hive commentaries are a rising trend because other formats of hive content have their creators mainly taking a break because they take extensive work. thats how youtube works, with such high effort videos people are bound to burnout. thats why there is a spike in hive commentaries because most high effort video creators are taking a break so commentary creators are taking over for the time being, at least thats how i reading the current trends. 2) quantity over quality is not the problem with most hive commentators. not to self promo, but i only upload like once every few weeks and my editing and pacing is not nearly as good as other hive commentators. there is def a skill gap within hive commentaries with pacing, narration, etc. while not extensive of a skill tree as other more elaborate videos, one still has to understand how to keep a video entertaining with minimal editing . 3) sure, commentary videos are taking over but he never explicitly states why this is a bad thing for the hive community as a whole. in fact, considering how they get a lot of views, its safe to assume that they are actually benefiting the community because people are still enjoying some form of hive content, even though they arent as cinematic as other creator's videos. 4) he defines "commentary videos" very loosely. if you look at deffect, the creator he is critiquing the most, his videos are mix between "challenge videos" and actual commentary videos. he seems to define commentary videos as videos that do not follow the traditional minutetech/mrbeast style of content and have more minimal editing. when critiquing a form of content, we need to properly define what that form of content is like and the general structural trends throughout the video before properly critiquing it 5) and in the end, just to quote defectt from this comment section cause he said it really well "trying to antagonize a category of content is just stupid, watch what you enjoy watching and make the types of things you want to see." there is nothing inherently wrong with commentary videos as a whole. did i eventually stop clicking on their videos? yes, i am guilty of that but there is nothing inherently wrong with the saturation of commentary videos within the hive space because they aren't actively harming videos like other forms of media.
at this point the commentaries have become like the pack folders videos of some time ago, repetitive, identical to each other, i miss when there was variety in the Hive community
The problem with hive content is that apparently Oficey isn’t uploading until 2025 (For context he messed up the premiere and it says it’ll premiere in 2025 instead of 2024)
The thing is not about the commentaries, its about why theres so much recently. Sure ignacio and PotatoPie are technically commentary youtubers, but either that the videos were mostly commentaries that were important/original or that there were also yt collabs/challenge videos. And the thing with nibbles is that its mostly a challenge/event video, with some being a commentary. I dont hate any commentary youtuber, but its hard seeing that fans have actually kinda ADAPTED to this commentary style. I made 1 commentary video, with many editing mistakes, and i got MORE views then an actual edited video. Its dumb. It makes smallers TH-camrs (LIKE ME) with a passion in Hive Content, (that arent commentaries) SO MUCH HARDER ITS ACTUALLY CRAZY. I even think some of the most recent youtube ranks on the Hive are commentary youtubers… YOU guys didnt want Officey to move to commentaries, but you can already see why he would do that.
Crazy thing guys, typically, when things to so well, that means that people like them 🤯. Think of Technoblade. The problem isn't commentaries. The problem is people only copying success with lower quality. People call out defectt all the time but I would honestly much rather watch a defectt video than some generic, over-edited hive challenge. It's not lazier, it's just a different type of content that requires less effort for an honestly, more entertaining result.
I honestly believe(or idk maybe I'm just on heavy copium and am hoping) that this drought of quality content will pass because it'll attract people that actually want to make good videos. Right now that's the only reason I'm sticking with still making hive content and just supporting the hive community in general because I see so much potential for it. There's even other TH-camrs doing this like glitchrocube, poggy, ackoof and such and I mean even you became popular because your videos are actually good. I just hope that this trend continues of more and more people pushing out quality content so the gap in between making these videos across different TH-camrs doesn't seem as big so we can prove that the hive deserves quality content.
@@MythicubeYT Some of your videos, (most of them.) do fall into that category sadly. It’s an easy view farm and it gives you easy subscribers, that’s the main reason people like defectt and especially nibbles are as big as they are. Not all of your videos are commentaries but I think mostly all are.
@@MythicubeYT I don’t really know bro sadly, I’m not a content creator, if you check my channel you will see I have no videos. So the best solution is to ask someone that doesn’t do commentaries.
honestly, TH-camrs like Defectt, Avery Doors, Lil Tub Bubble, Nibbles, and FireUltra, also need some support at least for the content they make. Yeah, they do a LOT of commentaries, but we need to support them as MUCH as we need to support Novus, LilMac, and McWMike for their loss. Those 3 make really well-edited and high-quality videos that they just disappeared, and as for the other commentary TH-camrs, they also need some support because they also made these videos for the fans! People have been learning strats and other stuff thanks to the commentary youtubers, and dont get me wrong, the stories they say are sometimes really interesting to hear. Thanks to all of these youtubers, they wouldnt have made the Hive.. THE HIVE!
Commentaries might be the reason why people are quitting or could be the problem but it’s not really the whole reason why. It’s mostly because of the hives community it’s just way too toxic and people are just super rude and just unpleasant that’s why most people leave because of the hate. That’s one of the reasons why I left too. I wish people in the hive can be more nicer and fair
@@Oficey no only that bruh, people gotta shut up in game modes, nobody wants to feel hated or hurt. When I was play skywars some dude I killed in the game said he was going to grape my family and girlfriend (remove the g in grape) I know it’s a joke, but it’s not funny and that was too far from funny.I had to call my gf to see if she okay.
I don't think commentarys are a bad thing as in lots of people enjoy commentarys and getting to know more about what that person is talking about. and not everyone does just commentarys theres also lots of other creators that do other types of content. if you wish to see a change maybe try working on your on content, as in maybe try to start working on your own content instead of name dropping other people and trying to say that commentarys are taking over hive and the people that are making them are lazy. but overall i dont see anything wrong with commentarys.
I think he means commentary videos that don't that don't really have a point, as in ones that aren't really talking about anything, don't have a script, or are just terribly edited.
Honestly commentary videos aren't bad, but they do get very stale and repetitive eventually. It is hard to enjoy them when they are spammed everywhere, and no one puts any effort into them. We just need a little bit more unique content then I feel it would balance it out. Then maybe watching those commentaries every once and a while might actually be enjoyable. 😅
The problem is not with the hive nor the content creators. The decline started when Minecraft bedrock just started sucking. The input lag and the other issues. Many players quit. The lack of malleability in Minecraft makes it more sucking. I cannot create better content on the hive other than repetitive montages and commentaries due to the lack of replay mod and shaders. Thank you for reading my yapping. ❤ Anyways I saw u comment on one of my combos. That was an old clip that I saw on my hard disk when input lag is still not a thing.
commentaries are 100% an issue and hive youtubers who priorotize quality>quantity are litteraly STUCK.. the main reason ive slowed down is cuz commentary yters are getting the same amout or even more views than i do with less than half the hardwork. But now that ignacio has returned, MAYBE this could change.
I'm with defectt I think this video should have gone into more depth with yapping about TH-camr's becoming commentary ppl and As a Hive youtuber who does commentary's it just seems like you think EVERYONE is doing commentarys when its really just avery doors defectt just makes a lot of awesome videos and like never started the commentary video rend I think avery doors did that
The problem I had was time, i made back to back good quality content which was SO much fun and did amazing but very time consuming, I then had a strike of motivation and decide to make commentaries as I wanted to post something and tell people about cool stuff that's happening/happened in my life, I made 2 and they did well considering how long I was gone. But after I made them I didn't want to post anymore, they felt cheap and boring, if I had more time I would carry on making quality videos but I don't so sadly i'm a very inconsistent TH-camr in this community, if anyone misses my content/streams i'm sorry.
I think the problem is not the commentaries,it’s just a lack of hive events and activeness,because what’s better Option 1:Introducing a retro classic video game event like sonic or Option 2:Skywars Classic💀Skywars Lvl 100💀CTF Update Twice☠️☠️☠️
There is still hope! Most of the small youtubers do better videos. We may not have the best pc's or the best editing, but at least we are doing better videos. Even if commentary's take over, in the future, It will change.
im prepearing for starting making content. i am planning to do smth that seems like nobody has done yet in hive community, and i also want to fix the issue of commentary plague
As someone who wants to try and make unique Hive Content in some ways i do resonate with this video. I try and make unique videos but they only reach 7 views maximum. However, I do also understand why commentaries are so popular nowadays and as someone who has made a couple commentary videos (I removed them now) I would say that although it is easier to make, there is still a lot of effort being put into them.
I agree with this video as people can easily get views and subs by doing commentaries! Like the people who do original ideas (like me) barely get views unless they're popular that is (I subbed)
The problem with hive content in 2024 is there is not enough Oficey content… I totally agree with what you say. People that make edits or montages back then would of been noticed but now small montage ytbers gain no subs per montage/edit
This issue about repetitiveness has been around longer than the last about year or so this content has taken over, just that now since it’s absolutely NO ONE that’s doing anything different and is considered a face of content creation it’s presence has increased. Also everyone cares about their analytics too much, are we still wondering why those creators who “quit” as mentioned in the video had quit? They also become an issue because even they don’t have passion for the actual content they come out with when views get into the way. Haven’t seen someone genuinely happy about their work in ages.
I believe in quality over quantity but it doesn’t really negatively affect the community. It just makes content stale. Also there are still some hive content other than commentaries like montages and edits which is what I mainly make but non-commentaries are still really hard to find and is bring drowned out by the algorithm. I dont think commentaries are totally bad. I could see it’s possible to balance it out instead of completely eliminating it.
Good video oficey. I personally think the YTers with commentaries are going well, but thats not good enough. Im trying to be original, but I lack video ideas. So I stick to streaming until a video shows up in my brain. Other YTers like dynams, are doing really well with originality, which caps Hive content. I want to make videos no one has seen before. Commentaries, yeah they all have different topics, kinda just feel like a minecraft school class tbh. So for the rarity of those of you reading all of this, I want to put more work into OG content. Maybe even mixing things up. You will start to see new things from me. So I can help end this issue that Hive content is on its downtrend.
Oficey you probably don't know me lol, but I'm trying to make unique Hive videos that people can enjoy (Not commentaries lol) and if you see this and have any tips or ways I could help revive Hive content, I would love to know!!
@@FerrettMC I’ve seen your videos before I like them a lot! I’d say keep uploading cuz your doing pretty good with your unique content and early congrats on 1k 🎉
I agree I enjoyed lil tub bubble comantarys they really did set the tone at the begging but just waiting to see the next evident dezzew potato pie and danyisdabom hope we find them soon
its ok i will start the Just Build arc of Hive (imma save hive) commentaries ARE good theres just gotta be a balance like this is a commentary with purpose
I completely agree with you hands down , new era of hive content is being copy and pasted . I remember when hive content was actually good i use to be excited now its literally all the same and im glad you made a video explaining about the problem of it to the public.
I get the goal but making one video and talking about it for 5 minutes wont do anything + make sure that the video didnt includ hate since a few of those youtubers arr in in a bad spot like @defectt who has a whole diss track im not joking
Commentary videos by themselves are fine. Its when there isn't any other non-commentary content to watch and the only thing you can watch from Hive content is commentaries is when it becomes a problem.
The thing is that u cant do much different content and new type of videos because the hive has no new updates, no new modes, items, maps, challenges and overall, no new content. Yes, Low effort commentaries are killing the hive content in TH-cam. But showing their videos and channels are so messed up bro. Talk about it but dont say directly to the person that does it.
Quantity over quality is often better because U learn but in this case. Hive is bigger than cube craft now but quality now is just bad and content is not really fun
The type of "commentary" videos you talk about, basically mean that your doing commentary videos, but I like commentary's I get to know the person way more which I can sub to them, (your content is good tho)
i’d agree, with all due respect hive content is now primarily just squeezing out every single seed of content there is. The only problem about this is when people do quality > quantity, it severely impacts their channel as they can’t be consistent. So i guess to commentary creators, its basically a cheat code Id also like to mention another influence could have potentially been kaysu. As from what i seen back when he uploaded, he gained so much subscribers in a shot spac of time before quitting.
imo It's dumb to blame creators for making this type of content because we are watching it if we weren't, they probably wouldn't be making it. (I'm not saying its wrong to watch commentaries, watch what you want.)
Oh great a hive video! Nvm it’s just some kid playing bedwars blatantly trying to copy technoblade with his voice and humor. (IcyNutella,u, and danyplayz are the only hive yts who’s videos I actually watch without clicking off after 3 seconds)
I am sorry I was deffect a 100th sub, he is amazing, he brings humor, he is like technoblade jr, of course not as good (no offense deffect) but is that not what tecno did a lot commentary videos and made jokes
There is no problem with commentry videos, just trying to clarify that here. Anyone can do whatever content they want, and ENJOY whatever content they like. It can put pressure on TH-camrs quiting such as lil mac, but im not hating here. Im just saying every one deserves to like what they like and do what they wanna do 💯👍

Defectt definitely started the commentary trend and there’s also TH-camrs more TH-camrs who switched to make commentaries like Blabi and electrix
Finally 1 year later
The problem I had was time, i made back to back good quality content which was SO much fun and did amazing but very time consuming, I then had a strike of motivation and decide to make commentaries as I wanted to post something and tell people about cool stuff that's happening/happened in my life, I made 2 and they did well considering how long I was gone.
But after I made them I didn't want to post anymore, they felt cheap and boring, if I had more time I would carry on making quality videos but I don't so sadly i'm a very inconsistent TH-camr in this community, if anyone misses my content/streams i'm sorry.
There was a lot of information in this video I never knew about
Heheh but good video :D
Literally
this is so accurate , i watched every hive youtubers (Modern) nowadays and i feel like their videos are the same
real
I think the problem is not the commentaries,it’s just a lack of hive events and activeness,because what’s better
Option 1:Introducing a retro classic video game event like sonic or
Option 2:Skywars Classic💀Skywars Lvl 100💀CTF Update Twice☠️☠️☠️
W CANT WAIT but STOP PREMIERING FOR HALF A WEEK AND AT 3am FOR ME
Bro u gotta wait a year look again😭😭😭💀💀💀
BRO ITS PREMIERED IN 368 DAYS IN 2025 😭
@@crabbiecraig I made this like 5 minutes before he changed it to next year
There is still hope! Most of the small youtubers do better videos. We may not have the best pc's or the best editing, but at least we are doing better videos. Even if commentary's take over, in the future, It will change.
Yo Ik You've Watched Some Of my Hive Videos, now I'm switching to brawl stars content for this EXACT reason, the hive is so cooked 😭🙏
😭
im prepearing for starting making content. i am planning to do smth that seems like nobody has done yet in hive community, and i also want to fix the issue of commentary plague
cool, i want to do something too, but idk what, honestly
Nice can’t wait to see it
0:55 how do you get all those colored backgrounds?
As someone who wants to try and make unique Hive Content in some ways i do resonate with this video. I try and make unique videos but they only reach 7 views maximum. However, I do also understand why commentaries are so popular nowadays and as someone who has made a couple commentary videos (I removed them now) I would say that although it is easier to make, there is still a lot of effort being put into them.
I agree with this video as people can easily get views and subs by doing commentaries! Like the people who do original ideas (like me) barely get views unless they're popular that is (I subbed)
bro if i got a dollar every time someone made a video like this i would be a millionare
The problem with hive content in 2024 is there is not enough Oficey content…
I totally agree with what you say. People that make edits or montages back then would of been noticed but now small montage ytbers gain no subs per montage/edit
This issue about repetitiveness has been around longer than the last about year or so this content has taken over, just that now since it’s absolutely NO ONE that’s doing anything different and is considered a face of content creation it’s presence has increased.
Also everyone cares about their analytics too much, are we still wondering why those creators who “quit” as mentioned in the video had quit? They also become an issue because even they don’t have passion for the actual content they come out with when views get into the way. Haven’t seen someone genuinely happy about their work in ages.
Guys im also making a video about it, but i have only 200 subs 😭 but i still hope that its going to be a popular vid
I appreciate the 4 second lil tub bubble glazing
@@LilTubBubble no problem I try my best
Why do you include your face in every video lol?
Cuz I’m beautiful
@@Oficeydon't listen to him u are beautiful 😘😘😘
@@Oficeywho told you that your auntie?
@@crabbiecraig YOOOO YOUR WILD
I believe in quality over quantity but it doesn’t really negatively affect the community. It just makes content stale. Also there are still some hive content other than commentaries like montages and edits which is what I mainly make but non-commentaries are still really hard to find and is bring drowned out by the algorithm. I dont think commentaries are totally bad. I could see it’s possible to balance it out instead of completely eliminating it.
him: against commentary videos
also him: uploads a commentary video on hive
The problem is that they need more Streamer Ranks
bruh
It's genuinely a really good video. I've been trying to publish good content 👌 but I've just not been finding much success in doing challenge videos❤
Good video oficey. I personally think the YTers with commentaries are going well, but thats not good enough. Im trying to be original, but I lack video ideas. So I stick to streaming until a video shows up in my brain. Other YTers like dynams, are doing really well with originality, which caps Hive content. I want to make videos no one has seen before. Commentaries, yeah they all have different topics, kinda just feel like a minecraft school class tbh.
So for the rarity of those of you reading all of this, I want to put more work into OG content. Maybe even mixing things up. You will start to see new things from me. So I can help end this issue that Hive content is on its downtrend.
Oficey you probably don't know me lol, but I'm trying to make unique Hive videos that people can enjoy (Not commentaries lol) and if you see this and have any tips or ways I could help revive Hive content, I would love to know!!
@@FerrettMC I’ve seen your videos before I like them a lot! I’d say keep uploading cuz your doing pretty good with your unique content and early congrats on 1k 🎉
@@Oficey THANKS SO MUCH!!! Honestly one of the main reasons why I started posting on again is because of commentaries lol...
I agree I enjoyed lil tub bubble comantarys they really did set the tone at the begging but just waiting to see the next evident dezzew potato pie and danyisdabom hope we find them soon
Me getting 346 views on a good video that’s not a commentary: 😭
First i watched defectt and avery now i font whatch them im bored of whatching the same thing
Oficey pls reply
The diversity has definitely been out the door, in which idk if its the communities fault or hive
its ok i will start the Just Build arc of Hive
(imma save hive)
commentaries ARE good theres just gotta be a balance
like this is a commentary with purpose
yeah fr, i hear you. hive and content creation is pretty boring for me because its basically just the same stuff every single time
I completely agree with you hands down , new era of hive content is being copy and pasted . I remember when hive content was actually good i use to be excited now its literally all the same and im glad you made a video explaining about the problem of it to the public.
I get the goal but making one video and talking about it for 5 minutes wont do anything + make sure that the video didnt includ hate since a few of those youtubers arr in in a bad spot like @defectt who has a whole diss track im not joking
2025 IS the problem 😭
Bro is making us wait a year for the vid to premiere
Commentary videos by themselves are fine. Its when there isn't any other non-commentary content to watch and the only thing you can watch from Hive content is commentaries is when it becomes a problem.
The thing is that u cant do much different content and new type of videos because the hive has no new updates, no new modes, items, maps, challenges and overall, no new content. Yes, Low effort commentaries are killing the hive content in TH-cam. But showing their videos and channels are so messed up bro. Talk about it but dont say directly to the person that does it.
Dont worry ignacio is back to make it gone (I hope)
I knew I wasn't the only one who sees it 💀
Quantity over quality is often better because U learn but in this case. Hive is bigger than cube craft now but quality now is just bad and content is not really fun
see yall next year
The type of "commentary" videos you talk about, basically mean that your doing commentary videos, but I like commentary's I get to know the person way more which I can sub to them, (your content is good tho)
Nibbles does actually make good content and not only commentary
oficey ahh premiere
Love❤
New Oficey upl before gta vi is wild
I get bored of commentary videos after a while. I’m subbed to so many channels I’ve stopped watching cos it’s so repetitive now.
Pvz music in da background is kinda nostalgic
this is why i watch my goat oficey with his original ideas🙏
I was making funny videos with friends but ig it didn’t cut it
i’d agree, with all due respect hive content is now primarily just squeezing out every single seed of content there is. The only problem about this is when people do quality > quantity, it severely impacts their channel as they can’t be consistent. So i guess to commentary creators, its basically a cheat code
Id also like to mention another influence could have potentially been kaysu. As from what i seen back when he uploaded, he gained so much subscribers in a shot spac of time before quitting.
I somehow forgot kaysu existed but your right I should of added him that’s mb but your right I agree
Dammit I missed the 2025 thing…
summary of the video: defectt
imo It's dumb to blame creators for making this type of content because we are watching it if we weren't, they probably wouldn't be making it. (I'm not saying its wrong to watch commentaries, watch what you want.)
fair enough
I used to enjoy evident ALOT basically the only one i watched until he stopped doing hive and all his videos are "BeDrOcK vS jAvA"
Oh great a hive video! Nvm it’s just some kid playing bedwars blatantly trying to copy technoblade with his voice and humor. (IcyNutella,u, and danyplayz are the only hive yts who’s videos I actually watch without clicking off after 3 seconds)
I think your attention span is just low dawg
The easiest and Most effective way to fix this is
Just make the other Old big youtubers like ignacio,nerd4berd etc to come back
Ignacio is coming back 😭🙏
@@Oficey yep 👍
I am sorry I was deffect a 100th sub, he is amazing, he brings humor, he is like technoblade jr, of course not as good (no offense deffect) but is that not what tecno did a lot commentary videos and made jokes
Shortest oficey premiere
Fr
There is no problem with commentry videos, just trying to clarify that here. Anyone can do whatever content they want, and ENJOY whatever content they like. It can put pressure on TH-camrs quiting such as lil mac, but im not hating here. Im just saying every one deserves to like what they like and do what they wanna do 💯👍
I agree but too many commentary TH-camrs are getting so repetitive it just looks like they’re copying eachother
Look I love Oficey but I am NOT waiting 1 year to see this >:
Evident, avery, nibbles, server - most popular youtubers, but they're doing loooots of NOT commentaries, lol
