    I still can't wrap my head around the idea that so many people watch the reactions INSTEAD of the original, because I like reaction videos, and that goes entirely against the whole reason I watch them. They're fun because I like seeing other people's experience with something I've already seen and enjoyed. I'm literally here right now because someone I follow reacted to it and I thought "I should go watch the original and come back if I'm still interested".

      Yeah, I agree. I'll always watch a video to get my own thoughts on it *before* watching a reaction to it. But I don't really watch much reaction content at all. I'd have to already like the youtuber doing it, or just really want to see people react to a certain video I already like because seeing people get hyped about something you also love is cool.
      I don't get the appeal of watching a bunch of random, uncredited tiktoks with someone in the corner just ocassionally pointing out whats on screen and giving inauthentic reactions, like sssniperwolf does. That sucks.

    • @zgama6511
      @zgama6511 Před 5 měsíci +1

      I'm late to this whole thing but reaction content (for the most part some CZcamsrs like oompaville do it right by adding genuinely funny or entertaining bits on top of funny edits) is the laziest most scummy kind of content out there and I feel like no one really cares about that? I mean watch a show/movie with your viewers I doubt anyone cares about that million/billion dollar company losing out on a few grand but most of these guys are just hijacking views that would otherwise go to actual content and not this lazy nonsense that every CZcamsr does nowadays. Even CZcamsrs I still watch do it and it's genuinely kinda disgusting to watch CZcamsrs go "oh ha funny" then move on without adding anything whatsoever to what they're watching. I don't think it's helped by the fact that these same CZcamsrs seem to think they're gods and that their opinion really matters when all they do is laugh, say some buzz words then move on. Best example of this I can think of rn is jacksepticeye saying mr.beast ruined CZcams when bros videos are almost all reaction content now and when he does make actual videos it's full of so much self righteous bullshit that you don't even wanna watch his let's play. The fuckin ego it takes to say someone who puts so much effort into their videos ruined CZcams when all he does is look at his screen and laugh is actually fuckin braindead. And I'm someone who used to love jack but my god is he up his own ass the last couple years. I don't even really like Mr. Beast and I realize he also does reaction content but at least the man actually still makes content and isn't just a reaction andy that makes occasional content. (This kinda turned into a dig on Jack that wasn't my intention but my point still stands. There is so many CZcamsrs/streamers that do mainly reaction content that have such big egos and act like they do anything of value when all they do is steal other people's content and it's sad as fuck to see.)

    Doctor Hope's Sick Notes reacting to Cells At Work is, hands down, the BEST react content I've ever seen, by a country mile. It isn't just reactions, he'll spot something interesting, pause, rush off to grab paper and markers, and just do a really cool microbiology mini-lesson. He's engaging with the content more fully than his audience otherwise might, and taking the opportunity to dramatically expand upon what the original content was showing. It's breathtakingly great stuff.

      You might enjoy "The Charismatic Voice", quite similar but with music. Overall, my bar is quite a bit lower to accepting reaction content as "good" (as long as the people or person seem genuine interested, are actively commenting and discussing), but I can't deny that I do appreciate and respect people more for pausing and even skipping parts of the original content, where it makes sense. Where regular "good" reactions are toeing the line of transformation through entertainment, live commentary and post discussions, the pausing and skipping leaves no room for doubt about the transformative nature, and creates a completely new experience.

      We are social creatures. The reason people watch reactors is the same reason we send funny videos/pictures to friends and family. To see and/or hear their reactions.
      Right now, I'm watching a youtube channel named Aliciaxlife because I want to see how she reacts to the one piece anime and to rick and morty. I continue to watch because I love her reactions.
      Reactions, good and bad exist. Don't hate the fact that reaction content exist, hate the fact that their are bad reaction content that are basically theft content.

He makes huge money and simply dont give a fuck, he keep saying that he's that big that his 'reacts' give the video enough attention and without him there would be way less views on that video.

I love when streamers or YT creators call their audiences out for this type of behavior because if they want so badly to see the uninterrupted original content, they can do their part in the reaction cycle by correctly using the reupload as a medium for expanding the original video's audience and GO SEE THE ORIGINAL CHANNEL THAT POSTED IT

      @@Badookum Not only that, he used to be against pronouns and politics in the past but not only politics is all he does now but he also pretends he supports LGBT for dopamine twitter interactions, somebody exposed him of his hypocrisy on twitter and his defence was "out of context" when that's what he literally did 2 days ago to AZ.

    Lots of times when I want to find the original video (because I am just not a fan of reaction videos, but think the original might be interesting), I just can't find it with the search. All I get are reactions.

    The Daily Doug is an amazing react channel, he’s a music composer and he reacts to subscriber sent music and explains with theory in some detail. It’s cool watching him Analyze so swiftly. There’s also a guitar teacher who does something like this but I forgot his name.
