      @@jabob1588 The funny thing is, when it comes to the Venn diagram of these communities, I think I might be the narrowest sliver of all. I know of The Yard because of Ludwig, who I know of because I've been watching Hasan since he was around 500-1000 viewers, and then that intersects with all of the various communities Hasan's connected to (from OTK to OTV and all of THEIR branching communities like Peter and Leslie and the entire Southeast Asian supercommunity), and I've known of Dimension 20 for a year or two now, which also intersects with Critical Role and the other big TTRPG/"actual play" communities. So that's Lud, Hasan, D20, OTV, OTK, CR, and about a dozen other communities.
      And somehow THIS is the weirdest intersection I've seen. I never once would have thought The Yard would have anyone from the TTRPG section of the internet on.

      And dude, the Twitch revenue is the smallest part of that empire. Like someone else just said here, their fanbase shoots money at them through a t-shirt cannon. They split that revenue AT LEAST seven ways (8-9 considering the crew to be a partner of sorts) and they're still GUARANTEED to all be millionaires at this point JUST from CR, and that's not counting their very, VERY successful voice acting careers. I mean holy shit, look up any of the seven cast members and you'll see something you probably know, but some of them (like Matt, Laura, and Travis) are actual juggernauts.

    • @fictionmyth
      @fictionmyth Před 4 měsíci +12

      @@T0NI_ The only thing even said about CR during all that I can remember was xQc saying, "Hey, look! It's number 1!" as Matt and someone else from the group were on a red carpet for something. I guess due to them being kinda insulated from the rest of the whole Twitch ecosystem of creators made them seem less relevant. When you're Mizkif, for example, it's easier to shit talk Hasan's income or place on the list when they're a person you know and speak to regularly, rather than seven extremely polite and entertaining people you've never met. Not only is it much easier to mock and joke about your friends it's also more likely that your friend already said something about you and that gives you permission to return fire.

      We need a D20 campaign with Ludwig, Will Neff, Rae, Hasan, Asmon, and Lilypichu. Just the weirdest melting pot of energy. Have Brennan run DM and have Aabria support on creation/set design. Just the weirdest nonsensical campaign. Somehow it would work perfectly.

    • @RabidDogma
      @RabidDogma Před 5 měsíci

      Wait...make the campaign with Lud, CDawg, Hasan, Ironmouse, Will Neff, and QT. It's a superweird group but they're all connected through at least one or two points (even Mouse is connected through Ludwig tangentially, and Connor's like her best friend in the world). They all have such different energy that it would be incredible. The only problem would be getting Hasan off of his phone for more than two hours at a time.

      ​​@@josepeejoestara typical turn is like 5 minutes per person mixed in with everyone else's dialogue and gameplay, including the DM.

    For my demo this is a perfect overlap- the Yard/Ludwig Extended Universe and Dropout are side-by-side, head and shoulders above any other content I consume. There is absolutely a lot in common. Both are silly-funny (not mean, not too cool) not clout chasing, genuinely connected and loving of each other, people-first, indie in a way, etc. Lud talked about making Mogul Moves a worker's coop, and Brennan Lee Mulligan could talk with him about that for as long as Ludwig wants. Their content is for people who want to be secure and kind and not take themselves seriously and be silly and have fun while being very committed to the integrity and quality of what they create.
