Why I'm Taking a Break from Destiny 2 (But Not Leaving for Good)

Channel update for my subscribers. Some things to talk about. Thank you for your support!

[CoolGuyGames]

Thank you for watching. Appreciate all of you.

Dammit Coolguy now I'm gonna have to test pulse rifle recoil directions shooting the wall in the back of the enclave by myself

[XxHUNTRNTRxX]

I’m glad you’re being honest about taking a break from Destiny and not making this another “I quit Destiny” video. We’ll still be here whenever you feel like coming back, CoolGuy.

I never played Destiny 2, so I discovered you after the Groot guide. It's clear that you are a well seasoned video creator and your cadence, attention to detail and fresh take on the game has been awesome to see. It shows that you've been making content for a long time, and I'm happy that you're finding a fresh and positive atmosphere with this game. Good on you for pivoting when feeling a little stuck. I'll keep watching!

I miss your Destiny Weapon reviews dude. No one else does it like you; the absolute GOAT

[ogLenas]

I read a crucible guidebook thread the other day and I've never seen people lament the "loss" of a creator as much as they did you, CG. Glad you are doing well, hope to see you again soon.

[WACDEATH]

I sure do miss your weapon break downs in destiny. They are great. Looking forward to you coming back.

I know it’s silly but you got me choked up a bit at the end of your video talking about your health concerns. I’ve been playing Destiny 1 & 2 since they released and have always appreciated your thoughtful content throughout. I switched to m&k when I moved to PC about 6 years ago so now you are the only controller player I still watch consistently because you have such helpful insights into game mechanics and strategy. Funny enough, I’ve been enjoying marvel rivals a lot lately so it’s serendipitous that I get to keep watching your videos! Keep it up and get well, my friend.

I miss your D2 videos, but I’m happy to hear things are going well. Take care good man and good luck on the treatment!

[ballclawguy]

Your Groot guide literally inspired me to main him. The way you broke down the character and showed use cases for his abilities I didn't even think about gave ne so much motivation to put time in to get good at him. He's my favorite tank and the character I use to climb, and none of that would've happened without the Groot guide.

[davidcintron]

Have to say I've been missing your D2 weapon breakdowns your vids are pretty much my guideline for what I actually keep in my vault. Glad the break is working well for you, I've found taking breaks from D2 is almost borderline mandatory for continued enjoyment of the game. Hope your health issues are improving.

[TubeYouTricky]

Sorry to hear that you've had a medical scare for over a year. I'm new to your channel from Rivals and I find your guides very helpful. Not for nothing, but you seem like a super nice person and I hope you have a speedy recovery!

I played destiny for about 2 years and grinded it out so much until eventually I realised that the endless cycle wasn’t leading anywhere and they would always just release new things that were slight variations of what had come before. I was glad to play final shape and have that as my end point of my (quite frankly) addiction. That being said I was so glad when I got recommended your Groot video, because what I always loved about your content was the concise and easily understandable breakdown of what I always thought were quite deep dives compared to other content creators. So glad that you are now bringing your talent and content to other games so that more people can benefit from your wonderful videos. Keep up the great work!❤️

[henrikjonsson]

Been watching your content since that Hopscotch pilgrim review in year one. You’ve always been amazing at what you do and a shining light in this community. Best of luck in your future endeavors and stay healthy!

[GuardianCell]

Just happy to always support whatever content you put out.
🤜 💥 🤛

I took a break, too, bro. Currently on Warframe and loving it! Hope you and the fam are well

[acdrew]

Thank you for the update on your content and your health. For me, it definitely sucks not having your perspective on new weapons and interesting perk combinations (I still have a battle scar in my vault because I got the "Cool Guy roll" and I enjoy that memory). I'm glad you are doing well and having fun with Marvel Rivals.

[hackyzack]

I’ve been playing new games and watching guides for them on YouTube for years. I’ve seen hundreds if not thousands of guides on many different games from many many different creators. You are by far my favorite, I’ve never respected anyone’s opinions and ideas as much as yours and it’s because you clearly take the time to figure something out before you make a guide on it. So many guides just regurgitate the same advice you see everywhere and it’s good to know that stuff but your videos feel like the masterclass for whatever you are making a guide on. I loved watching you break down destiny weapons and I’m loving every hero guide you are putting out for Marvel Rivals. Thanks for being such a cool guy

[johtohoennfan]

Thank you for the update, CoolGuy. Truth be told I think you're one of, if not the best gameplay Youtubers I've ever seen, no exaggeration. I've watched your videos since around the drop of Forsaken and I've always felt that you were always the MOST on the pulse of the game and how to play it. Your analysis is measured and thoughtful, and your passion is always palpable.

Judging by the reaction from the Marvel Rivals community and the viewcounts on the new videos, it seems like they very much appreciate your skills and your brain. They are SO lucky it was Rivals you chose to make content on.

I haven't watched any of them, nor have I played because I'm not huge on the type of game that Marvel Rivals is (it looks great though, much more appealing to me than other games like it) but if I ever pick up the game I know whose channel/videos I'm beelining towards. Glad you're making headway with your health, I'm wishing nothing but the best <3

[Silencers]

You will always be a pillar of this community, a voice of calm and reason. Appreciate the heads up, and please enjoy the break and have fun in other spaces. Even if no one else will, I'll be here to greet you when you come back.
