is the last episode gonna be called ERROR AH not found - 404?
it better be
It will now
Please it's ah, even at their cleverest they wouldn't do that
**sobbing** *damnit barb…*
Lol such a great title
Geoff must be so proud that they're continuing his long tradition of naming their project something really stupid that they're going to still be regretting years later. 😂
Haha yup
i mean, geoff says its stupid, but its not. it was originally based around getting achievements. so the name made perfect sense. if i see an account with the title of what i am looking for, like, "dark souls education" or some shit and i am looking for information on darksouls, thats the one im clicking.
@@DefiantMe He's more referring to calling a company 'Cock Bite'
@@DefiantMe Yeah at the time it made sense, it's just the fact that it very quickly morphed into something that had basically nothing to do with achievements, which lasted 15 years, that made it seem stupid in hindsight. And of course we know he still hates the name Rooster Teeth too. And readily admits he f**kfaced himself by naming his podcast F**kface. 😄
If nothing else, it's amusing to me that 404 is the last episode. Let's hope they don't lose it.
I hope it's not the LAST episode and they continue Off Topic after AH goes.
It's nice to see Michael especially kinda follow in Geoff's footsteps with growing and branching out from where he started.
I knew it was gonna happen as soon as he donned the facial hair. Mikey Boi is all grown up.
Is he gonna end up hating the name dogbark the same way Geoff hates achievement hunter?
@@kingen411 that’s most likely their criteria for the name, yeah.
To be fair, he did that with his work as an electrician.
He's really leaned into the marketing mentality while still being a prime contributor, I'm honestly super impressed in general
AH has been part of my life forever. I just turned 27 and AH is a huge reason I am who I am. When I was younger, a dream of mine was to work at AH. AH is the reason I became a content creator. Thanks to everyone who has been involved with AH.
I'm with you mate. AH and the Smi77y/Terroriser crew were the entirety of what I watched years ago, and both have been expanding out over the years. Super excited to see what DB goes without the gaming/streaming constraints they've dealt with
I'm really happy these guys are moving on to something completely new, Achievement Hunter will always be important to me as it makes up a solid 50% or so of my entertainment throughout my teens and early adulthood and i enjoyed all of it but it's clear that the format just hasn't worked as well these last few years in terms of bringing in new eyes and keeping the old fucks like myself around.
Much better for everyone for these dudes to go build a new thing they are actually excited about than it would be for them to stay latched to the classic content forever as it's relevance just bleeds off.
To be honest that is why (while not excited) I am slightly hopeful for it because tbh I can probably count on my fingers how much AH/roosterteeth I have watched in the past year or maybe even two. I am hoping that this might bring new love and life to something/people that were my teen years
I really wish these weren't ending
I loved the break from mundane videos, to see what was going on in everyone's lives.
If they're ending Off Topic that was like, the last good long running show after Bernie and Gus left the RT Podcast
@@Narcoanalysis Burnie saw what he caused and got out. Dude slammed so much money into his passion projects and sold the company off to keep the money coming, and then left.
@@Fyre11 oh I know. That's exactly it.
@@TheOnionKnight1depending on who you ask, Off Topic is the cause of AH’s downturn. They’d argue Podcasts took away from the conversations during gameplay, and Sunday Driving should have been the one to stick around. Everyone has their opinions on it.
@@PolarBearTC I absolutely believe that Off Topic killed AH. Once they started Off Topic, they stopped talking in the games to save it for the podcast. Then it brought the calamity of the never ending bits to fill in the dead air. They stopped being "friends who play games and happen to be recording" to the "yes and..." crap because they had to save all the chill couch banter and talking to the podcast
Bittersweet might be an overused term but it really is. Geoff's explanation was something I needed to hear too. I lowkey hope y'all test out a rehash of Ready Set Show at Dogbark
I moved in the middle of high school and failed to make any new friends. I was very lonely for over a year. One day, some people saw me watching AH at school and they introduced themselves. 10 years later, the people I met through AH are still my found family and one of them is my soon to be husband! We've been dating for 7 years. AH brought us together. I think you guys do amazing work and it's beautiful that we grow
the most important thing to me is that these wonderful folks have fun!! the best thing about achievement hunter over all thirteen years i've been watching has always been the laughter! i'm with these rowdy people forever 😁
AH, the memories. Pun intended.
April 2013. Towards the end of my first year of college, Boston Marathon bombing happened and I needed to take my mind off it.
Stumbled onto Geoff and Michael playing Saints Row the Third.
Now it feels like going to a funeral shortly after celebrating an anniversary.
All I can say is thank you, Achievement Hunter, for everything.
20:43 I'm so glad he said "demented wiggles." The first time I saw the preview video for Dogbark I immediately thought it was like an adult swim wiggles vibe. I'm excited to see what comes up next. Obviously sad about AH ending but it's probably the best move in retrospect.
2011-2017. From my first year of college to my mid 20s, AH has been there for me. With so many laughs and happiness that I’ve gotten, it’s sad to see this ending. But I hope dog bark is successful and you all have fun with it. Thank you again!!
Honestly, thought AH would only die when Michael did.
All jokes aside it’s a sad day for someone who grew up (was literally like 10 when I found AH and now I’m getting ready to graduate college) with AH and while I’m nervous for this new chapter I’ll happily give it a chance despite how utterly devastated I am with the ending of so many things. I’ll save everyone the emotional rant so I’ll just say: Thanks for everything AH!
had a feeling this was coming for about a year now as ogs left controversy kept showing up but it still feels unreal to me ah has been a huge part of my life since 2013 i wish these guys all the best with dog bark and will defiantly be checking out dog bark thanks for making the last decade better then it would've been without yall!
Ill give it a chance but..... the trailer really didn't make me want to. As long as you guys are happy and having fun creating what you want to❤️
Reading the comments and I like it. Many people are accepting, embracing, bittersweet at it. AH was fantastic, and thanks to them I follow a lot of good streamers like Jeremy and discovered my love of podcasts like F***face, AMNA, Tales from the Stinky Dragon and that. Really fun stuff, I wish them best at it, they are going forth in a new path.
I'm really excited to see the future Dogbark content! Seeing these guys excited and passionate about making new things and having that creative change makes me happy for them. I think the fun and good energy they have about Dogpark is going to come through in the content! Can't wait to go on the Dogbark journey 💛
I've watched since 2010/2012. I will always at least give it a shot if it's from you guys. I'm happy you're giving yourself a large amount of room to grow. Can't wait to see what absolute chaos spawns from this, and good luck!
Demented Wiggles is an excellent way to describe that trailer.
Same, been watching for so long that it's make me sad that AH is ending but happy for them to try new things I will truly give it a try.
@@independentlego I'm happy they're doing it now, when it's still a joy that they can end on good terms. Nothing would be worse than watching it degrade as they lost interest and happiness in it. In my eyes, this is the biggest respect they could have paid the memory of AH. That it was quality, in some capacity or another, all the way to the end.
Ill admit ive been watching since the horse and pig videos, and took a break from the content post the 2020 stuff except for like the randomizers. Its a bummer to see AH go but at this point a change was necessary. Good luck with dogbark guys, ill give it a shot
I had wondered what was going to happen to the "Let's Roll" series, and am a little sad that it's going to end (was hoping that it would move over to the "Let's Play" channel), but will enjoy what's left to come.
let's roll is probably my favorite current series on AH so i hoped it would just get moved someplace else... maybe we might get some tabletop gaming on dogbark though
Glad to close the chapter on RT with the end of AH. Been hard to keep interest, with things after the past few years especially. I wish the best for your endeavors. It really was a lot of fun until the OG crew started dropping off, and the corporate buyout. Bittersweet for me, but a long time coming for everyone. Cheers to you all. Godspeed.
I've been here since the early 40's of the Minecraft series, and it's awesome to see the new guys taking the torch and doing something different with it. Even if I'm not super active with Dogbark, I wish nothing but the best for the crew.
Yknow most of us that are still here after all these years just want to see you individuals do whatever you want to do because youre funny.
Love you guys! Been here since almost the beginning, and I can’t wait to see the next chapter.
I remember reading Geoff’s post on the RT site announcing AH back in 2007 or so, and thinking ‘who wants to watch someone play a video game?’ Shortly after that, I remember rolling laughing at the awful WW2 game Jack had to play for Forced Enjoyment.
from the earliest days, to now 10+ years later. all I can say is thanks so much for everything so far, and good luck with everything in the future
Dog Bark is going to be awesome and I can't wait...love the squad, so it will be great
I grew up with you guys, im going to be growing old with you guys
With Achievement Hunter Ending, Can we at least get that Gears of War Judgement BOT Video Lol
'Don't cry because it's over, be happy that it happened.'
I can't help but hear that in the back of my mind watching this Off Topic, even as all the videos I've laughed at flash before my eyes, from Plan G, to Between The Games, to Cops and Crooks, all the way to Minecraft 500, and Bunnyman 2.0.
It's been a hell of a ride, and if I could discover them all over again, right from Plan G being my introduction to AH, I would do it all over again in an instant. I'm going to miss seeing the latest shenanigans from AH, but I think this 'Dogbark' could be a new dawn, and a great way to reinvent themselves.
Edit to add: hearing that they're going to try new videos, new formats, I'm half hoping they bring back The Morning Show Show/Ready Set Show. I absolutely loved the loose, internet-challenge-type format they had in the early episodes, and I know Jeremy won't move back to Austin, but Gav definitely seems to be willing to be a guest. They could do an R.S.S 2.0 with Treyco and Fredo, and it would be a hit
How are you guys going to talk about Dogbark and not include it in the description?
yeah wow... rip.
There’s a hashtag - works for me.
But there’s nothing on the channel besides the trailer, and won’t be for weeks.
Plus, this is *Achievement Hunter* - they still have to plug AH stuff coming out (and uncensored on the RT site). And if you want AH merch, these are the last few links to that stuff.
Despite not watching content for a few years, this is bittersweet to me. I am so happy to see what they do next, while also feeling emotional to see something that shaped me since 2009 come to an end. I know when that final video comes out it will probably bring even more of those emotions.
I personally feel like AH and honestly RT as well was formed on small groups of friends making each other laugh with their own ways. They split into their own things and yet stayed apart of each other like they are doing now. I wish them all the best in the years to come, and honestly will find it easier to follow more of the content I want to enjoy.
Memento Mori AH, the memories and impact will be forever.
Also the trailer turned me off hard but i am still going to give it a shot cause i am not read to let this all go yet. Hopefully this really takes off and doesnt crash and burn.
AH has always been that content that reminded me of how fun it is to play games with friends. Sad its ending but I feel like I've felt this coming since 2020. Good luck to the AH boys
I cannot even begin to describe what my childhood would have looked like had I not been able to watch AH content since damn near the beginning. Thank you for making my day growing up with all the content you guys made and I look forward to what is to come.
i do kinda wish the off topic podcast could continue just as its own channel or something, that and lets roll are most of what i watch on this channel. I am hoping i enjoy dogbark but ill miss some of the stuff from AH none the less
Poor Michael man. The guy has seen it all fall apart piece by piece
I really hope DogBark has the 2016-2018 style of live action that Achievement Hunter had before they had COVID and all the constraints put on them.
Covid was terrible, but it gave me WFH, which I adore. The biggest lose is the 30-45m commute of using that time to listen to Off Topic. I might use Dogpark's podcast as inspiration to mix that into my work routine where it makes sense
I wish you guys all the best with dog bark! Sometimes change can be hard but also exactly what you need to keep moving in life.
TL;DR Please reconsider putting the new podcast behind First...
I've been watching Rooster Teeth and AH since around 2011 and I get it, nothing lasts forever and Off topic ends with AH and that's perfectly fine. I stopped regularly watching the video game based AH content somewhere around in the middle of Sky Factory. I ended up having less time to watch the video game content from AH but always kept up with Off-topic, it was my only real way of keeping up to date with the current events of AH. I always enjoyed the chemistry, the banter, seeing jokes be born and eventually fade away, I enjoyed hearing what wacky stories that were told and in general shit that happened in some video or in and around their lives.
The statements in and around the announcement that the new podcast is going behind First really rubbed me the wrong way. After close to eight years of Off-topic, the podcast is now going to be behind First. From what it sounded the new podcast behind First will be very much be like Off-topic is now, personal stories, current events, etc.
Even if the Dogbark trailer was at supposedly fully on 100% which they said most videos wont be at, the content doesn't look to be for me. In the end, from next week onwards I'll just loose 100% of Michael, Alfredo, Joe and Trevor and that fucking sucks.
I really hope you reconsider the choice of putting the new podcast behind First.
Kind regards, from someone who isn't "supportive" enough.
I’ve been involved in Theatre my whole life and the idea of Dogbark really peaks my interest! I love exploring and trying new things so I am excited to be along for the ride!
Good night, sweet prince. On to the next adventure!
I wonder if Dogbark will last 15 years like AH
It hurts to see you guys go, but this is for the best.
good luck with Dogbark, and thanks for the childhood
Thank you all for the years of free comedy. I really appreciate it. I will miss you all! RIP AH
I wonder what Gavin’s last Off Topic credits bit will be?
This time it was “Dogs Are Barking”, lol.
Excited for you guys to be more free and try new things, ill be there for it.
I hate to see AH 😞 go but I'm excited to see what's to come I've been an AH fan an rooster teeth fan in general for a long time since RvsB... looking forward to what's to come...
Congrats on the start of Dog Bark, I was hoping there would be a final Off Topic, Bittersweet though as Off Topic has always been my favourite podcast for years, I guess Facejam will have to take the number one spot now, R.I.P AH 💚 and long live Dog Bark 🐕
Gonna miss watching these.
The end of an era. Looking forward to their next chapter.
I choose to see this not as an end but rather a transformation. An evolution. Becausecat it's core AH is people creating content with passion and entertaining people along the way. Dog Bark is a rose by any other name as it were
Man AH has been with me since middle school. Now im getting up for work finding out it’s ending 😢. Love you guys.
With the things Trevor said about the burnout video I think Ima shed a few tears
I'm glad you guys are excited for Dogbark, I'll give it a chance but respectfully I don't think it will be my cup of tea. Maybe I'll be wrong though? Either way, best of luck and hope it goes well for you!
So what I am hearing is AH got big and added alot of structure and now it isn’t that big anymore and the structure is restricting those remaining
my heart can't take it i wanna cry, BUT i trust you guys, i mean you have changed my life so I o u and everything will be in our hearts, but michaels right, everything has changed... life.
Trevor describing his shit like attack on titan makes me not want to wait for more DogBark! Ive never even seen attack on titan but that whole monologue was amazing.
Honestly watching Michael be genuinely exited about the content again is what is making me hopeful for dogbark
Sad about AH, but I'm excited about how excited you are for Dogbark, which is really important
I didn’t think off topic would die with AH, that sucks I hoped it continued with dog bark
My recommendation is that in your finding the format of Dogbark period you stick with it for a while, because getting the first outside influx of viewership takes a while. Also you obv already know but shorts are really good for discovery on YT
If dog bark turns into some Tim and Eric style garbage im out
I'm here for it, the weirder, the better
giving up a million+ sub channel for a channel with only 30k as of now is kinda crazy. hope it works out for you all
a million+ that don't watch the content. look at the views for what they make, sub counts mean nothing. same with RT, over 9 millions subs and most of the videos in the last 3 months have less than 30K views
ive been watching AH for 10+ years now and it was always such a huge parte of my life. I cant even express how happy I am for these boys right now!
Feeling creatively saturaded is such a bad feeling and I am really excited to see what else they can put out. It surprises me how much I feel and care for the whole crew as if they were my friends, even though I dont know them personally. The corage it must have took to take a leap like that is impressive and I honestly feel proud, always happy to see one of them running after their dreams 🤧💞 I could never comprehend people who hate and curse as if these content creators owned anything to them. I just hope they feel accomplished and find their audience in whatever they feel like making, and also that that includes me or else I am going to feel so much saudade (unfortunately cant translate that 😂🇧🇷)
Good luck boys, be happy! Longlive DogBark!! cant wait for the premiere 🧡🧡
Definitely the right move to start anew. You don't want to carry the old baggage while trying to start something new and different
Like many people, I’ve been following AH for years (coming up on 8 years). I knew it couldn’t and wouldn’t go on forever. As sad as that may be, I’m happy that these guys found something to be passionate about that makes them so happy, I can’t begrudge them that. Thank you for all the joy Achievement Hunter, my heart was yours until the very end! 💚
Excited to see what you have at Dog Bark ❤
The Four brothers have decided to fly the coop and set out on their own while still remaining part of the family. Honestly, I'm really excited to see these guys go out and create freely what they want to. Michael one of the first talents of Achievement Hunter that shaped Achievement Hunter and the progression of rooster teeth. From rage quit to the big brother of Achievmet Hunter, to the oddball of Liveaction and podcast, Michael has been a constant nucleus for Achievment Hunter that has kept it centered. Trevor a member of the second generation Lads, who had to overcome a lot of adversity as a new face especially after oldfaces began to wane. Trevor became a wacky idea man who brings joy, entertainment, inquiry and innovation into each project he involves himself in. Alfredo a member of Achievement Hunter who is hard to place, it feels like he's been around for ever, but also like he's a new addition. A wildcard, a mastermind, a fresh perspective, for a while when I checked to see in my busy schedule which video I wanted to watch when I got a break his face would be the first I'd look for, A dynamic that fits so well with every member of the rooster teeth family. Then there is Joe, the young blood, the youngest brother, and newest face, and honestly, the quickest accepted cast member of Achievement Hunter since the original cast. Joe is a bit like an amalgamation of the other three with a younger more reckless perspective. It's been great seeing how he soared in Achievement Hunter to stand toe to toe with the members who have been there for years. Each one of you brings something great in their own right and have each been my favourite at different stages in my life, but it is together that you guys shine and bring perfect entertainment. I've been along for the ride of Achievement Hunter since I was 14 and Rt as a whole since I was 9 and I'm excited to see where you all go. Thanks for Achievment Hunter I'm looking forward to Dogbark.
This sounds like a more polished, permanent version of Unus Annus, where you're just kind of doing whatever your heart wants and making the best of it. I don't know how I feel about skits - mostly because I find improv to be pretty cringy - but I love your guys' brand of chaotic humor, so I'm willing to give it a try. Good luck, my dudes!
I was introduced to Brandon Sanderson through the wheel of time book series Robert Jordan wrote most of the books but died before he finished so Brandon finished it. I have also read Warbreaker and the Mistborn series.
I grew up watching this channel but had fallen off in the last couple years. I can't wait to see the future of Dogbark and cheers to some incredible years! ❤
Sounds like they are locking a bunch behind a pay wall... least before they had a podcast and the first extra podcast, you got the main content, and the first was just a little small extra love. Thus, it sounds like a full on your going to miss full shows behind Paywall.
Had a great run.
I guess I can catch up and binge everything I’ve missed since nothing news coming out
I hope the last off topic has Geoff, Jack, Gavin, Ray, Jeremy, and Matt. It would be a beautiful way to wrap it up
I doubt Ray or Jeremy will make a appearance, Jeremy due to being so far away from texas
I’ve been a fan of AH and RT for a long time, ever since the first AH minecraft let’s play and I dabbled RT with RvB even before that. I know there’s a lot of AH hate going around recently and a lot for AH as well and I just kind of wanted to vent my thoughts about dogbark as a whole. I still love a lot of RT content and I still sub to AH and let’s play too. I think that as they’ve grown their content has become a lot more varied and I understand that not everything RT is for every fan nowadays. I don’t think that's a problem though, necessarily, because it allows for a much wider audience. Where before I would watch every single video from RT and see the same dozen or so people and the same comedic style in every upload there is now a bunch of different types of humor video styles within the RT brand. So even if I can’t click any RT video and love it immediately, there are still always the ones that really hit home that I love. I think the original RT style is still in a lot of videos, there are just more styles also, enough that most people won’t love every single upload that comes out. When it comes to dogbark though I have so much faith in Michael, Trevor, Joe, and Alfredo to make incredible content that I can’t wait to see what they bring out next. I mostly started watching AH because I liked RT humor but with a more videogame-centric concept but I’m going into dogbark because I like AH so much that I don’t care if the content is videogame-centric, I still want to watch it.
Well, it was fun while it lasted...
Goodbye Achievement Hunter, I'll never forget you.
I really think the great flood of 2023 was the real push that ended AH somehow. Like it rang the bell of "hey, this stuff you worked for? It isn't permanent, it can easily go way in like a flood, try new things" in the heads of AH in a way.
At this point I only watch videos that feature michael+britishguy or michael+homeless donut eating man. Maybe a halo laso. Dogbark seems interesting, and I'll definently try it out. And I don't mind the name, i think there's plenty of brands that prove the name isn't important, but either way i like dogbark, it sounds cute.
i dropped AH when jeremy left and as others were let go just gave no reason for me to come back. im watching this cause im curious of what and why but the name of dogbark doesnt pull me back in. i guess its just not for me.
im gonna be honest im here for the lets plays, lets rolls, some podcasting, but not sketch comedy, i will give it a shot but damn not what i want at all.
*Let’s Play* is a different channel. That’s not ending.
@@PolarBearTC yes I’m aware, but they still signaled that they very clearly are not going to be apart of it the same way they are now. Which sounds like it will be a shell of what it is now, but I hope I’m wrong.
@@GavTheWookiee They haven’t announced who will be helming that channel. There are plenty of rumors, but I won’t get into that beyond we already know them and should be excited.
@@PolarBearTC yes it’s all speculation beyond “familiar faces” which to me sounds like a reduced cast which sucks regardless of who it is.
@@hangmanjangojames8146 oh no, instead of spamming on every video “who are these people” “bring back Minecraft” “wish you’d hire that Matt guy”, he’s being a supportive and positive fan! Burn him!
Welcome to the cosmere Trevor!
I'll watch dogbark. Very upset Achievement Hunter is over with though. Been watching y'all for so long... I hope dogbark is a hit and to be entertained by it
I'm excited for Dog Bark!
Makes me feel old to see AH going RT podcast now Off Topic Im an old man now time to pass the torch to the next generation I guess
The dogbark trailer looked horrible. Hopefully its just an unfortunate trailer or this is gonna be rough
It just feels like the comedy is for no one. It's a weird mix of adult swim and the wiggles.
Yeah, DogBark is a live action variety show, 4 videos a week.
@@PolarBearTC I never mentioned let's play. I just Said dog bark looks like garbage
After 12 years of watching AH it's sad to see it end, I know it's been a rough couple years among AH and RT, but I'm looking forward to see where it goes from here.
I already know that Dogbark is going to be my new favorite show ❤
I had grown away from AH. It has a special place in my heart but no longer what i was into. I am definitely gonna check out dogbark because that sounds like what im into now!
Does anyone else think micheal looks like hes got jaundace. I dont know if its a tan or something but he looks really yellow
37:16 The Euro truck simulator video with michael was a favorite of mine from the last year
Awesome that Trevor has joined the Cosmere of Brandon Sanderson
1:29:30 yeah I’m one of these fans that Michael talks about, for me i started back when minecraft ep CloudDown came out. I’m so excited for the DogBark
wait i just noticed, if next week is going to be the last off topic, then it would be episode 404, which usually stands for technical difficulties, so its probably going to be crazy and them destroying the set. if i had to guess
I loved this podcast and listened off and on since the pilot, excited to see the new stuff on dogbark, but sad to see AH go
ONE LAST RIDE!
So the last episode of Off Topic is gonna be 404? ngl that's pretty funny.
Also, it sounds like they're trying to recreate the old office vibes, where they're all just in a room like 'so what do we want to do today?' and one goes 'Well, I got this moonball....' and just go with it. Which I am all for. Definitely going to give a chance, especially since I've lost interest in their gameplay videos anyway.
