Playing this game for 18 years, I was 14.. the only game to bring me to my current GT. I swear to god. 😂! Ngl I find A LOT of people who play Gears are definitely the same. Emotionally attached. I’m glad you spoke out on it. Nice to see a pros insight on their feelings towards the game growing up.
Considering the fact that I play a lot of fighting games that can be frustrating as fuck. Gears is the only shooter that makes me angry when I play. Hell even when I'm winning I still be mad 😂
everyones the same on gears 5, no individuality with how easy it got so theres not even an incentive to improve. especially when there's not even a normal ranked mode to climb
Gears 1 for many years was the pinnacle of a pvp shooter, for very good reason. A lot of us grew up on gears and love it for similar reasons as you. Great to hear you give your thoughts man. Much love. Keep it up
Thats the whole point of the video. Its not a game, it was his job and how he paid the bills. Its like he got unemployed because of someone else fault One could say just get another job, but spending almost 2 decades, being the best, and then just walking away I guess its not easy That being said, maybe look for help, being angry at the state of your life because of a situation that is out of your hands might not be the best
With how TC treated this game, I wouldn’t be surprised. I love Gears of War. They released Gears UE and released 4 shortly after and abandoned UE. Gears 5 launch was a mess and going radio silent for YEARS was insane. This game will always hold a special place in my heart. Bonding with my brother in the campaign and meeting awesome friends during my teenage years. It’s sad seeing how Prescott of all people would’ve treated this series better than TC. Sure hope they manage to pull it off with E Day. Maybe idk, eh
It’s not just gears the mortal kombat comminoty is in a similar situation, unless a new character is dropping nrs is radio silent , and only listens to one pro, but the decisions and story they make leave a good portion of the community scratching its head, the pro tour numbers show it with low registration numbers
I would love to see E-Day go back to being a slower, heavier feeling game like Gears 1. I don't see it happening, but I would love it. I've played every Gears game for years, except 5. I quit 5 after about 2 weeks. It's a bad game when compared to previous games in the series and anyone that says otherwise is in denial. I really hope E-Day is a return to classic Gears style.
Gears5 is just too much I think less is more gears2 and 3 were so fun and even with less the skill ceiling was still high. Idk hope EDAY really changes directions.
Bro…. They pussified “Gears” after 2 between gameplay and in game animations.. You had to EARN to right to play Every game EARN each kill, the og’s know this. Bringing back Gears of War like it should be will seem like bringing back bullying lol
i never understood why people sleep on icy, whenever i hear people talking about you, they typically compare you to people like avexys and other pros or really good players, and they always mention "movement"
Love your content it never felt like you were angry just frustrated with the state of a franchise that you hold dear to your heart. You are the reason I bought gears 5 after not playing a gears game since 3 when I was a kid. Can’t wait for the E-day content.
we play mad cause the game, no franchise used to be a staple in homes alongside halo n cod... and now we got watered down gears.. praying eday goes back... I PRAY it goes back.
Hi Icy, hold on there, E-Day is coming soon and you will need to make up new videos! also gather a strong roster and compete in Esport, I'm sure we all are waiting for it..
I dont understand why you guys have hopes for eday when the same people who botched gears 5 are working on it. Think they'll learn from their mistakes? Look at the track history. Bet you're the same type who buys 2k every year.
Ngl I love the movement in 5 despite being unable to do anything other than normal bouncing but He's so right gears in its current state is a almost no skill game unrecognizable from previous title. Switch a few binds around on controller and you can move crazy with no effort.
Icy boy you the last living legend hold this game dont leve to died love you icy boy one day if found you on some lobby i gone to say love you icy and thanks for everything you done on gears franchise
Some things change for the worst Icy we're getting older also and so lets not put our feelings first for what the game has become, just maybe E-Day is the answer ggs Icy Much Love brother animo rey!!!!!
So i don't comment ever but i watch almost all your videos and i understand completely where you're coming from. I've been playing gears since the day it released. I can remember the commercials before it's release with "mad world" playing. The hype i had for this game was unlike any game ever before. I'm still pissed TO THIS DAY that i never got my seriously achievement despite having over 12k kills on gears 1 lmao Yet gears 5 is what made me stop. It's a shallow shell of what cliffy envisioned. The coalition need to take responsibility for the bag of dog shit they've created. I hate it. But i doubt they ever will. It's sad and depressing. I've shifted over to Apex where I'm top 30 in the world with my legend and dealing with the same shit i left gears for. Games in general are losing their identities to corporate greed and misplaced trust. I fear most will never return from it but just stay true to yourself and do what you feel is best for your future and don't let this or anything else dictate your life. Stay blessed my boi
How do you feel about them tweaking the camera angle to make it more like gears 1,2 ,and maybe smaller chunk range . With maybe a small stun if you brick someone ?
no game pissed me off like this one did i remember when i was grinding for #1 on the control lb i was there for like a week almost 2 and i was just losing my mind i couldnt stand it anymore i just uninstalled
16:04 it's absolutely disgusting when people that way! Everyone plays the same, the ones that made it about speed ruins the game. I'm an old gears of war player... I can never see myself playing the way. Either way, I do miss playing gears, but never gears 5. It's also funny that the way people play the same way... Always wall bounces with the character facing the camera, and or in place smh NOTHING NEW🤮🤮
Real talk I’ve taken about 6 months off. I wanted to play gears again before e day and try and stream again, should I start up here soon or wait till next year?
U are you a thousand percent correct every time u complain…. No lies …. I competed mlg and have been playing maybe longer than u and most …. To me all the games had bs this game had alot of bs with it so its hard to kind of disagree but thats why i dont get too mad cause its just a diff variation-of same shit ….. but u are correct this game has no soul everyone plays the same ….i don’t necessarily blame the game for that …. TH-cam and they dumb all games down nowadays…. Remember gears with no hit markers? Hes 2-3-4 pointed was the terminology….. u had to know shit cause u played not cause game helped u …. I agree wholeheartedly icy i disagree also if that makes sense …..
Actually I feel the same way as you when I sit and play this terrible game for hours, but is it true, why don't you change the game? Actually, I would answer you because it is not the same essence of Gears as other games. I understand you very well and I hope that Gears E-Day is good and brings us back to the old days.😢
Maybe I feel angry or even throw the game controller, seriously marking you at 85% or 99%? but you're right, the people who made this game were just looking for a job, we love gears and it will never compare to any other game.
Hard to play a game that’s trash and it’s unfortunately the current game so people are going to play it, it’s also hard to avoid hackers in the older games so gears 5 is the only choice at this point
I hope you keep doing what you are doing 🫡💯🤝 i have been playing since the beginning i am 44 now . I understand how you feel about 5 i really hope the new gears E day brings all the franchise back and make it a masterpiece 🤝🙏💯🫡
Not angry just exhausted
been a long love/hate relationship with gears
my life has been so much better since I stopped playing gears 5😭

Peace of mind brother.
Don't let a game break you down in anger.
Thats the whole point of the video. Its not a game, it was his job and how he paid the bills. Its like he got unemployed because of someone else fault
One could say just get another job, but spending almost 2 decades, being the best, and then just walking away I guess its not easy
That being said, maybe look for help, being angry at the state of your life because of a situation that is out of your hands might not be the best
Just comes with being a competitive person
Played Against You , Your A Beast Bro RESPECT 💯☑️

No other game brought out anger like gears of war, idk why lol closest to that was trying to beat ninja gaiden 2 last boss with no health items lmao
Mw2 easily the maddest I’ve ever been at a game

i never understood why people sleep on icy, whenever i hear people talking about you, they typically compare you to people like avexys and other pros or really good players, and they always mention "movement"
0:02 that's me! New question icy, would you play overwatch?
Love your content it never felt like you were angry just frustrated with the state of a franchise that you hold dear to your heart. You are the reason I bought gears 5 after not playing a gears game since 3 when I was a kid. Can’t wait for the E-day content.
I love how as you're talking about being a big part of the community every single match someone is like "ICY!
Dude I love the fact that youre playing Gears ! Your channel is awesome and I'm a new sub. Keep up the great work brother !! Gears for life
No matter what bro, you always keep it real with us and we all respect that about you❤️
we play mad cause the game, no franchise used to be a staple in homes alongside halo n cod... and now we got watered down gears.. praying eday goes back... I PRAY it goes back.
yeah not a pro player but still feel your frustration man. this is what we get in return for loving gears 😭
Ur channel found me before other gears channels not a coincidence
With how inconsistent the gnasher is, you’d think they would fix it? Instead of making an 83% bloodspray. Absolute joke of a game
Hi Icy, hold on there, E-Day is coming soon and you will need to make up new videos! also gather a strong roster and compete in Esport, I'm sure we all are waiting for it..

@@marioramirez6741why wouldn’t you have hopes for one of your favorite franchises just can’t let it get to the point of delusion
Ngl I love the movement in 5 despite being unable to do anything other than normal bouncing but He's so right gears in its current state is a almost no skill game unrecognizable from previous title. Switch a few binds around on controller and you can move crazy with no effort.
Icy boy you the last living legend hold this game dont leve to died love you icy boy one day if found you on some lobby i gone to say love you icy and thanks for everything you done on gears franchise
You got “passion” for the franchise Icy. I’m kinda the same way with the Destiny franchise.
Some things change for the worst Icy we're getting older also and so lets not put our feelings first for what the game has become, just maybe E-Day is the answer ggs Icy Much Love brother animo rey!!!!!

Just make an icy intro for all your videos that show all your accolades in like a small 10-12 second clip including your championships
I feel like the ones asking that same question over and over are the same trash teammates I get in ranked that don’t have a brain
How do you feel about them tweaking the camera angle to make it more like gears 1,2 ,and maybe smaller chunk range . With maybe a small stun if you brick someone ?
we love u bro

I thought you weren’t doing claw anymore? How are you holding down X and tapping A simultaneously?
I know people have been talking about this. But is it 100% confirmed that gears e-sports is done? Or just up in the air?
Why did this hit home🥲
U are you a thousand percent correct every time u complain…. No lies …. I competed mlg and have been playing maybe longer than u and most ….

Haha before watching I think it’s a rage inducing game.
Hard to play a game that’s trash and it’s unfortunately the current game so people are going to play it, it’s also hard to avoid hackers in the older games so gears 5 is the only choice at this point
How are you rank 5000 when im rank 800?
Because you play more than me
just do what slaughtems does, play the older games
Since gears 5 sucks, Gears 3 is still somewhat alive why don’t you just play that?
🔥
🤜🤛
Why are you always so salty 😮
I hope you keep doing what you are doing 🫡💯🤝 i have been playing since the beginning i am 44 now . I understand how you feel about 5 i really hope the new gears E day brings all the franchise back and make it a masterpiece 🤝🙏💯🫡
Respect for keeping it honest and raw bro
