Arin Hanson / Egoraptor / Grump - "Hey I'm Grump!" of Game Grumps fame, hypocritical SJW doxer, shat himself recording a let's play

The vid basically felt like watching one of Arins cartoons from the late 2000s which does not hold up for todays standards. His core fanbase grew up and better talented animators came into the spotlight while he was messing around with Gamegrumps for 10 years. You dont dick off playing videogames for 10 years and then expect to get back into the animation scene with the same level of animation from your Newgrounds days.
Arin didn't animate or seemingly write it. He produced and voice acted for it, and that seems to be it.

You are correct on that as this animation was credit to someone else in both the description and the credits.

Arin didn't do shit in his own production and I am not shocked it turned out shitty because it still was his terrible jokes and VA work
 
Hello retards, just made a Farms account after years of lurking so apologies if I am shit at posting,

I'm surprised this hasn't been mentioned yet but Ding Dong recently divulged for about an hour about how awful he was treated at the Grumps office.

It's really sad to see him like this, you can tell even 5 years later this is hurting him. I genuinely hope the best for him.

edit: whoops my bad, i forgot to literally look back one page, i am retard

Can't say I disagree with his assessment of Matt. Ding Dong may be neurotic as fuck, but at least he's honest about his autism. Matt (and maybe Ryan, I don't know or care) definitely changed for the worse at some point and it's sad to see.
I love that apparently Ryan said to DingDong he remained silent for his career because he'd rather be an LA lets player than back in the midwest stacking shelves. Imagine being so sociopathic, pathetic or stupid that being a let's player living in LA is like youre charles foster kane type story

Being in LA just to let's play sounds like the most monumentally retarded thing that you can do. Why do these fuckers feel the need to live in Hollywood for their YouTube careers? You can do that shit anywhere!

Because they don't just want to Let's Play, you see. They want to "branch out" - movies, TV, vidya, the works, and, unfortunately, CA is still where a lot of the big names in entertainment are.

You could just be like Red Letter Media and live in a random midwestern city where celebrities fly out to see you because of the good work that you do.
But no, I'm sure your let's play show where you say dick jokes is getting the attention of every major Hollywood producer, so you gotta live in LA.

The money's good I'm sure, but I would never make a career out of a hobby like playing videogames.

View attachment 4143300

Now the views are a little all over the place there, but I'd say that averages just about 300k. He couldn't even get the grumpers to show up in full force for this video.
300k for a Game Grumps video involving Aron shows that the glory days are not just over, but the Era of the Manchild is running thin. I know SMG4 videos that gain a million to two million views on YT, and their humor has gone towards the safe side in recent years.

And the insane thing is that they use GMod textures as if Team Fortress 2 is still popular, while also adding anime memes to show you how much of weebs they are.
 
Hearing Ding Dong talk about this again, and through my own personal experiences, I think I have a better idea of what actually conspired.

When Ding Dong was shown the Dream Daddy build by Matt, he obviously had some grievances with it, and after seeing how miserable it was making a lot of the employees working at Game Grumps, he decided to say something in an attempt to help after some urging from both Julian and some of the employees.

This is when the employees used Ding Dong as a guinea pig, allowing him to take the first step and test the waters before they spoke out as well. When they saw what happened with him getting doxed and blacklisted from the industry, the employees backed down. At best they would get fired, at worst they would never be able to get a career again.

It sucks, but when push came to shove, the employees chose their jobs over their friend. I know Ding Dong said there is a recording of him explaining everything, but here's to hoping we never actually hear it.

As for Matt, it seems like he cares more about his image than Ding Dong. But if he truly wants to be friends or make it up to him, be an adult, sit down in person, and have a conversation. Will it be awkward? Of fucking course. But after everything that has happened Ding Dong is still trying to make an effort to be friends, either reciprocate it or don't.

And for the members of Game Grumps who blacklisted Ding Dong. Fuck you. How fucking petty do you have to be to ruin someone's career because they spoke negatively about your visual novel game? Eat shit.
I just went back and watched Dingdong's original stream about Dream Daddy and it's funny because he actually says over and over that his major problem with Dream Daddy (aside from it being shallow gay pandering) was the way the "team lead" was handling it in the office, and the team lead was Vernon Shaw. I also have some personal experience with people in their sphere having an industry-adjacent job at the time and I've heard from multiple people that Vernon Shaw is a weasely little piece of shit and that everyone hates him lol. He quit the internet shortly after Dream Daddy came out and I just now put together that part of his flounce had to be because of this drama with DingDong and Julian.

The drama seems to have boiled down to Arin choosing Vernon as a friend over any of the OneyPlays people, probably because Vernon worked on their tours and then brought them a game they knew they could cash in on by baiting gay kids on tumblr into buying it, lol. Vernon had more monetary value to Arin at the end of the day so he was the obvious choice, I suppose. This was interesting to me because I hadn't really connected all of those events until now.

I can’t blame any of them completely for not shit talking a product made by their boss/company. All it takes is one autist to get an autistic bee in their bonnet and ruin a career. What’s inexcusable is not immediately shutting down the d.oxing, harrassament, and even just being a good friend and reaching out after a blowup.

Matt and Ryan’s “awesome friend lol so random super chill funni bois” schtick is well worn out.

You either die Edd Gould, or live long enough to see yourself become Erin Transon :heart-empty:

LA is where people go to branch out then commit sepukku when they fail, unless they're lucky. No one mentions the last part, though.
 
>In an old animation livestream Arin has admitted to having to "scream Nigger" after meeting a black person to "get it out of his system". Because that's what all normal people do, right?
>Yes, the Game Grumps doxed a guy. Isn't that our job? For such proud SJWs Dan and Arin can't keep their mouths shut. On a playthrough of Sonic Adventure for Dreamcast Arin needed a walkthrough read out to him (lol), during the Knuckles stages the walkthrough begins to frustate Ego because it doesn't tell him where the collectables are [archive]. This is due to the locations of the emerald pieces needed to beat the stage are randomly decided, Arin doesn't understand this and begins insulting the walkthrough maker because he didn't predict in 2004 that some retard almost a decade later would need help beating a fucking Sonic game. Dan then reads out the IRL name of the guy that made the walkthrough, then tells the people watching Game Grumps to send messages to him right after both of them talk shit about this walkthrough he made when he was twelve.

i still maintain these are both hilarious fucking bits

Hate to defend the Gramps here but i hardly believe Dan foresaw that the author of the walkie was still "around" and that the Lovelies would get to him.

I also remember they had to delete one of the Mario Maker episodes because Dan was spewing hate on Germans, only thing left after said episode was that he apologised in a... i think Monopoly episode not long after?
