His wife's career is growing and he wants to support her. Obviously there are other aspects he weighed as part of this I am sure but that's the main reason given. Anything else, we can only speculate as of now.
@@gellister thanks for the reply! I don't want to contribute to negativity, but I feel like the loss of Kyle and Jones has hurt EZA quite a bit and he might be seeing the signs of a decline for the company too
@@RCade81 I worry about the same; while I wish Ben (and Brandon and Kyle) all the best, what bothers me is that all three are making such a clean break. I don't see why Ben for example couldn't still do reviews remotely, and Brandon do the VO so they've both still got a bit of income while figuring out what else it is they want to do. I hope they're not total strangers, but Kyle has only really appeared in the (very, yearly?) occasional Easy Update or the fantasy game league thing.
I agree fully, and seeing that guy who is now a women, walking with boobs is personally for me disgusting. Its a disgust for me and the ones i like all leave. Easy allies became a joke :(
Gonna miss Ben so much. Not only for his excellent writing but his natural ability to produce interesting discussions. It hurts even more that he won't have a social media presence at least. So long Ben, best wishes!
I'm happy to see that Ben wrote, edited, and voiced this review. I can't think of a better final video than a Monster Hunter review. Thanks for everything, Ben.
Had a feeling this would be a Ben written review. A very exciting surprise to hear his voice. We will all miss you Ben. I hope to see you on twitch from time to time. Thank you for everything Ben!
Obviously, Ben will be missed. I'm very happy to hear his voice one last time here, and I hope this is the norm going forward. As I've stated previously, the new look and feel of EZA was bolstered by 'more personal reviews' where the writer would be lending the VO to their words, and this is the first time I've heard it being done. Ben absolutely demolished this, and I'm confident the other Allies will do the same.
As the throngs of people have been saying; great way to go out Ben. I am happy for you, and I wish you nothing but the best. Yet, as someone who has come to rely so much on you guys over the years to help me through tough times and everyday life. When one of you leaves it feels like losing a friend. However, that's my cross to bare. I really hope we get to see you on with the Allies every now and then, and maybe a solo steam like Kyle. Seriously, you're just a too good at this, to leave it completely =) Cheers Ben, thanks for all these years.
I can already tell Im gonna miss Bens presence in the EZA circle. Hope to see Ben applying and outputting his creativity again, in whatever field he chooses to go next.
I will really miss your reviews and your passion Ben. Truly one of the best in the business. You introduced me to so many different series and games with your thoughtful comments and your speeches about many games. You’ll be missed. Best of luck to you!
Sad to know that this is your final review with EZA, Ben you are among the few in gaming media who I count on for honest and thoughtful analysis and just overall good discussion of video games. You’ll be missed. Best wishes for you in the next chapter of your life.
Interesting that Ben talks about Frame Trap every other week at the end. I'm guessing that means someone will take on the mantle? Great review to cap off your GT and EasyA career. On top of the VO and editing, the way it was written actually felt different than the usual EasyA style and it really added to the effect you were making this one your own.
Thanks for all the insightful, passionate, and poignant words over the years, Ben! What a perfect last EZA review for you to go out on! Miss you already! Good luck!
Selfishly, I wish Ben could at least do EZA part time. Like one review a month and one Frame Trap a month, something like that. But whatever makes him happy makes me happy even if it hurts a little. I literally have been watching/listening to him since he first ever appeared in stuff at GT. We are gonna miss you Ben, thank you for being a part of my life for so long! Love and Respect!
Love you Ben! You will be greatly missed! I didn't think Sunbreak would draw me back in but once I started playing on Sunday I haven't wanted to stop. The loop is just so satisfying. I'm going to TRY to change up weapons a bit to keep it fresh but I love my trusty Hammer so much. 😅
Gotta love Ben's writing style for reviews. Great video and sendoff, the only thing missing was an upload time at actual Sunbreak or sun "Rise" PT haha
Not to take away from any of the Allies but I will be missing Ben's writing when we can finally watch that Xenoblade Chronicles 3 review. Thank you for the years of fun Ben.
Thanks for gifting us with one last banger of a review before you blast off into the sunset! May the legend of the Dragon of Iowa forever echo throughout the history of gaming media!
You are greatly underestimating the impact follower quests/hunts are having on the Sunbreak playerbase, pretty much everyone I encountered have enjoyed them so much that they are demanding they become a stable in all future MH games. It seems to me you haven't dappled in them long enough maybe!?
I love that Ben is voicing his final review but I don't think Sunbreak is a massive expansion and my hunting group found it disappointing and devoid of challenge. Some of the hunts are fun but left feeling much the same as we did with base-Rise and we know it's not going to be as well supported as Iceborne or World.
Never tho will hear your voice on Latest EA review on your final day.. really happy for you! & Good Luck For your next endeavour Ben! You'll be missed..
@@jeffeaston5078 oh bummer, it makes it so much more personal and memorable, EZA reviews quickly became like IGN reviews, I can't remember who did what, who enjoyed what unless I hear them talk about it on frametrap my mind only remembers IGN's Damon Hatfield's opinion on anything
Your choice of words and shots was on point, but your enunciation and emphasis was absolutely stunning. You'll be missed Ben, thank you for years of fascinating insights, great commentary and ever-relevany thoughts and opinions.
Shame that Ben is off on his next endeavour. His approach towards, and expertise on, the JRPG genre is unmatched in the EZA circle in my personal opinion. He will be missed.
This expansion made the game feel like the old iterations by the amount of challenge it added. I now use up my potions, traps, bombs and wild life around the map just to get through the fight. In base Rise, it was admittingly easy but still fun. At first, I almost gave up because of the difficulty but then I just remembered that I was just playing with training wheels prior to Sunbreak. Now I'm all in and loving it.
A few too many base game monsters and not enough new ones for now, but aside from that Sunbreak is pretty good. The citadel map is also already better than the jungle and any of the basegame maps. I'm a little disappointed that female followers acutally have a female walk and run cycle similar to MHW, but your female hunter still walks like a bodybuilder. Wish they gave us the option now. But thank you for all the amazing reviews, streams and frametraps Ben!
Could not think of a better last review for Ben than Monster Hunter. And you did the editing and VO! You went out with a bang Ben. Good luck In Iowa.
Why is Ben leaving?
His wife's career is growing and he wants to support her. Obviously there are other aspects he weighed as part of this I am sure but that's the main reason given. Anything else, we can only speculate as of now.

A fitting send off for Ben, really loved the VO on the review! Good luck in Iowa Ben L&R ❤

Thank you for everything Ben!
What a great game. I'll be playing this expansion for a long time to come.
Thank you for everything Ben, we'll miss you.
Glad you got to edit and voice one of your own reviews before you left, Ben! Nailed it ofc.
All the best for the family and future, L&R.

So nice to hear Ben narrating his own review.
I prefer Brandon to be narrating it to be honest.
@@tropixx_xlr1549 sure, he is better, but this is something new and unique, since Ben is leaving after this.
The Dragon of Iowa
That was such a wonderful surprise hearing Ben on this review :)
If you're reading Ben, that was great. I want to check out monster hunter now
"The world will finally understand."
Thank you for all these years Ben.
I wish you the very best ! Give us some news !!!
It's a really nice surprise to hear your voiceover for your final review Ben, good luck with all your endeavours, we will miss you :')
Going out with a banger! We'll miss your reviews Ben! Stay awesome.
I can already tell Im gonna miss Bens presence in the EZA circle.
Hope to see Ben applying and outputting his creativity again, in whatever field he chooses to go next.
glad this game is done we can finally focus on World 2
I will really miss your reviews and your passion Ben. Truly one of the best in the business. You introduced me to so many different series and games with your thoughtful comments and your speeches about many games. You’ll be missed. Best of luck to you!
Excellent review. Perfect that Ben did the VO.
Farewell Ben, great to hear your voice for this final review too!
Amazing to hear your voice ben on the final review and thank you for getting me into this series!
awesome send off for Ben! Good luck with what life may hold in the future my dude
thank you Ben 🙏
This review is like having a customized Ben Moore dango: triple trifecta writing, VO, and editing. L&R!
Ben Moore, best in the biz
Sad to know that this is your final review with EZA, Ben you are among the few in gaming media who I count on for honest and thoughtful analysis and just overall good discussion of video games. You’ll be missed. Best wishes for you in the next chapter of your life.
The right kind of review for Ben's sendoff.
Interesting that Ben talks about Frame Trap every other week at the end. I'm guessing that means someone will take on the mantle?
Great review to cap off your GT and EasyA career. On top of the VO and editing, the way it was written actually felt different than the usual EasyA style and it really added to the effect you were making this one your own.
Brad is the new host. They filmed his first episode yesterday, but we don't know when it will be going live
Thanks for all the insightful, passionate, and poignant words over the years, Ben! What a perfect last EZA review for you to go out on! Miss you already! Good luck!
What did you kill to craft that purple and black weapon with the eyeball?? So awesome looking!
Great review Ben. Gonna miss ya man. Take care.
Well written review, I am not a fan of the personalized VO. Feels less polished. Ben's opinions are always solid.
It’s because it’s his last review before leaving EZA
Damn , I'm so glad Ben got to review this before leaving
Best in the biz. Fantastic review to leave the EZA with. Going to miss ya man and good luck with your next adventure! L&R!
wow Ben - a review, edit job, and voice work? What a swan song.
Safe travels Ben, you were always great and will be sorely missed. Good luck on your new endeavors!
Selfishly, I wish Ben could at least do EZA part time. Like one review a month and one Frame Trap a month, something like that. But whatever makes him happy makes me happy even if it hurts a little. I literally have been watching/listening to him since he first ever appeared in stuff at GT. We are gonna miss you Ben, thank you for being a part of my life for so long! Love and Respect!
Thanks for all the good times over the years Ben. Cheers!
Love you Ben! You will be greatly missed!
I didn't think Sunbreak would draw me back in but once I started playing on Sunday I haven't wanted to stop. The loop is just so satisfying. I'm going to TRY to change up weapons a bit to keep it fresh but I love my trusty Hammer so much. 😅
farewell, Dragon of Iowa
L&R to Ben. What a great final review!
Nobody does it better than big Ben Moore. This just made me realize how much I'm gonna miss this dude.
Gotta love Ben's writing style for reviews. Great video and sendoff, the only thing missing was an upload time at actual Sunbreak or sun "Rise" PT haha
This was the perfect send off for Ben 🙂👍
Great review, great bloke. Best of luck Ben!
Mr Ben Moore with the perfect parting review! Best of luck in your future, L & R
Great final review Ben.
One more Hunt. Thanks for all the good times Ben. L&R
Moore, Moore, Moore! Way to go out with a bang! Congrats!
Chills man chills. All the best Ben!
Thank you Ben! Going to miss you a lot!
The first & last Ben Voice over! You were excellent Ben! Perfect last review from Ben.
Stellar review, Ben. We'll miss these from you. L&R
Not to take away from any of the Allies but I will be missing Ben's writing when we can finally watch that Xenoblade Chronicles 3 review.
Thank you for the years of fun Ben.
Best in the biz. We will miss you Ben.
Ben VO 🥺 Thank you Ben for an amazing review! Miss you a lot Ben!
Ah man.. Ben, you will be missed, so, so much. Cheers for everything, much love from Norway
Excellent and fitting review. Really going to miss you, Ben!
Thanks for gifting us with one last banger of a review before you blast off into the sunset! May the legend of the Dragon of Iowa forever echo throughout the history of gaming media!
Thank you Ben for all your great reviews over the years!
Sad this is Ben's last review, but I liked him doing the voice over.
Fantastic review Ben thank you for everything, you will be missed.
You are greatly underestimating the impact follower quests/hunts are having on the Sunbreak playerbase, pretty much everyone I encountered have enjoyed them so much that they are demanding they become a stable in all future MH games.
It seems to me you haven't dappled in them long enough maybe!?
Need Ben to just keep doing reviews from Iowa
Thanks for everything Ben
Thanks Ben, for everything.
I love that Ben is voicing his final review but I don't think Sunbreak is a massive expansion and my hunting group found it disappointing and devoid of challenge.
Some of the hunts are fun but left feeling much the same as we did with base-Rise and we know it's not going to be as well supported as Iceborne or World.
We'll miss you Ben-chan 😭
Take care of yourself Ben and good luck with your future endeavours!
Never tho will hear your voice on Latest EA review on your final day.. really happy for you! & Good Luck For your next endeavour Ben! You'll be missed..
Ben! May your voice in the industry live on forever.
Glad the boys are reading their own reviews now, way way way more interested in watching reviews than I've ever been
I believe that was mainly going to be a Ben thing, with Jones still handling the rest.
@@jeffeaston5078 no only if they want jones to do it
@@jeffeaston5078 oh bummer, it makes it so much more personal and memorable, EZA reviews quickly became like IGN reviews, I can't remember who did what, who enjoyed what unless I hear them talk about it on frametrap
my mind only remembers IGN's Damon Hatfield's opinion on anything
So glad the other allies stepped up to voice and edit some of their reviews as well! Oh wait
Oh, boy! I'm gonna miss Ben Moore.
I've never played a monster hunter game, is this a good game to start with, playing only single Player with no friends?
I'm loving this expansion, my brother and I played this all day yesterday.
Your choice of words and shots was on point, but your enunciation and emphasis was absolutely stunning.
You'll be missed Ben, thank you for years of fascinating insights, great commentary and ever-relevany thoughts and opinions.
Shame that Ben is off on his next endeavour.
His approach towards, and expertise on, the JRPG genre is unmatched in the EZA circle in my personal opinion. He will be missed.
Beautiful review to end on! L&R Ben
I'll miss you Ben 😭
Bye Ben, hope to see you stream games in the future.
The dragon’s return is complete
This expansion made the game feel like the old iterations by the amount of challenge it added. I now use up my potions, traps, bombs and wild life around the map just to get through the fight. In base Rise, it was admittingly easy but still fun. At first, I almost gave up because of the difficulty but then I just remembered that I was just playing with training wheels prior to Sunbreak. Now I'm all in and loving it.
Anyone else tearing up at the Ben VO? Just me? Okay
Ben is leaving?? Oh man end of an era
Capcom really dropped the ball by not making Sunbreak a 10 for Ben's final review. #smh
I'm going to miss Ben so much 😞
A few too many base game monsters and not enough new ones for now, but aside from that Sunbreak is pretty good. The citadel map is also already better than the jungle and any of the basegame maps.
I'm a little disappointed that female followers acutally have a female walk and run cycle similar to MHW, but your female hunter still walks like a bodybuilder. Wish they gave us the option now.
But thank you for all the amazing reviews, streams and frametraps Ben!
Gonna miss your voice in the industry Ben.
Damn, i love your voice, Ben :)))
Gotta give this series a go for once
What a amazing review Ben wow ☺️❤️
Ben
I don't get the hate on the followers, they make the solo grind better. Wanted to bring NPCs for years now and now we finally can.
Thanks for all the fish Ben
Farewell, sweet prince.
Thanks Ben
Sayonara Ben!
you kind lost me when you say follower quest isn’t memorable i found it best thing that series have ever added
