Retiring

After 13 years, I think it's reached the point where it's time to wind down the Minecraft gameplay content here. If you still enjoy watching it, there will be plenty more on @CaptainSparklez2 that will continue to go up.

Thanks everyone for the kind words. It's difficult to not get a bit of impostor syndrome reading through some of the comments, but I'm happy the Minecraft videos over the years were enjoyable to many of you. I'm excited to possibly try some new things in the future. In the meantime I'm still going to try not to die immediately in the hardcore series O_O

Dont downplay your impact on the minecraft youtube community. 13 years consistently making high quality content while having an incredibly likeable personality, never having any negative scandals, never having to do anything vulgar to be entertaining and thus having a more broad and accepting community than is the norm with youtubers nowadays. In my eyes, easily top 3 minecraft youtuber all time

Do what makes you happy 😊 we all love you captain 🫡

[kalesalad.]

Being 21 now and thinking back to when I started watching you 12 years ago is crazy for me to even wrap my head around. Thank you for being part of my childhood

[AntVenom]

Wishing the best for you man! Looking forward to seeing how this channel evolves over the coming years!

[RubberRoss]

Best of luck man. Do what feels best for you!

[kritikill]

I started watching you when I was 5 years old, I'm 19 now. It's been a wonderful journey and a supreme honor Captain!

[ARGaming]

End of an era. Hopefully this means more opinion pieces!

[blockland]

Started watching you at 9 years old back in 2011. Im 21 now. This one stings. Best of luck to you Jordan

[CavemanFilms]

I know what you’re feeling. I hope whatever you decide to do next goes well!

[ezrakyle]

It’s crazy to see that this will be the end of the Minecraft era on this channel, I started watching you when I was 7 years old (I’m 20 now) and while I may not have seen every single video you have put out or in all honesty in recent years any of your videos I never stopped being a subscriber to you and I still will always be here.

We love you Jordan ❤️ and we are happy with whatever decision you make

[Spifey]

Proud of you man, you paved the way for so many of us!

[vfeuer]

The end of an era, you were the last true honest survivor of what our generation grew up on. I have watched you since I was a true child and now as a fulltime firefighter I get to watch you retire peacefully. I have continued to watch and keep up with you and I have never been let down by what you do and have done. Thank you CaptainSparklez for what you brought to our generation and hopefully what you'll continue to bring to the next. From the OG call of duty content to now, we thank you.

[ElRichMC]

Thank you for all the years of free content on the platform. Big hug from Spain!

[cassidyk]

Captain, I started watching your content in middle school, I'm now 25. What an incredible community you've built and maintained. It's been a hell of a run. Godspeed.

[tomgretzky]

I am 22 now and I still remember when I was young, entire classes of kids singing your songs, talking about your videos like the lets plays and even now I can talk to any of my friends about CaptainSparklez and they have nothing but respect. You were a big part of millions of lives including mine, you deserve everything you have and more.

[MCJams]

Thank You Cap. You were very kind to me in the begining. I will always be greatful for your help. God bless you!

[Cringility]

One of the few MC YouTubers who still came out to be legit. Stampy retired a few months back, and his reason was similar to yours: Audience had grown up with you guys, can't do the same thing forever, gotta move on to a new chapter in life. These are all very understandable, and we have only so much time in our life. I'm glad to have come across a content creator such as yourself Cap, we will continue to support you until you truly retire 😎

[runikvarze]

Dude, you've done a lot. Enough, many would say. You deserve a chance to rest and enjoy your life. You built a music brand, a youtube channel, an animation studio... you're good, bro. Take a rest.
