Dang, man what a tragedy. So young. Lost my grandmother to alcoholism a while back, so I know the slide and the grip it holds over you. Please, if you’re going through this, reach out for help. You can beat this, and you deserve to be around for the people who care about you.
Ive been using the phase "This is where the real game begins" for a while, and said it instinctually last night while playing. I legit stopped after, paused my game, and just sat there for a moment staring at the wall. Rest in Peace, Paul.
Being the same age as Paul and previously struggling with drugs and alcohol makes me realize how lucky I am to have made it out alive. Rest in peace Paul, you will be missed
I read about it on the new vegas steam forums today.. only 27.. He brought together many people from all over the world who share a passions for Bethesda games Rest in peace, Paul.
very respectful video, I'm sure paul appreciates this wherever he is now. even if you don't have the biggest following, putting something out there like this means a lot to everyone, so I'm glad you made it and i hope for your future happiness 💙
That "fuck" at the very end is the most genuine feeling ive heard regarding this and thats exactly how i felt when i heard about this. I know too many people who have been down that road longer than he was in earth, and yet they keep on going like they are invincible and people who have the self recognition (even if after a certain point) to want to change just get wiped. In some ways its preventable, yeah. It just feels sone kinda wrong when i look at it and it just reminds me how true the statement "life isnt fair" really is, even when we try everything to make it a lie.
it was just surreal. cause of his break from yt id forgotten about him for a bit, literally found out whilst browsing steam and it was so depressing to see.
Discovered his videos recently not knowing he already died. I love Fallout and his takes on games in general were funny and sarcastic in the right amount. It was through the comments that I realized the bad news. It was very shocking to laugh and have laughed with someone that appeared so joyful and funny, but carrying deep internal problems just like everyone else. Rest in peace sweet prince.
i had no idea Paul was 27. I’m 27. this shit hits hard. been playing skyrim for weeks and probably won’t stop for a while. thanks for such a heartfelt and respectful video. rip paul, this is where the real game begins.
his vids kept me company right when covid broke out and i was working at one of the few places still open. miss you bud, tysm for the tribute :,-( i'll miss grandma sparkle and the real gaming beginning.
I never knew he was battling addictions...i just remember watching his New Vegas videos. It sucks. Seeing his last post saying hes not dead only weeks before his passing hits harder. His last video being if you can beat New Vegas while being addicted to chems is just crazy ironic. I hate it. May he rest easy now. I could only imagine what he was going through in his final moments. I just want to hug him. I dont even know the guy. This sucks.
Now, here I thought this Christmas would be boring as it usually is with Paul alive and kicking... but no apparently. Rest in peace Paul, taken away too soon.
RIP Paul. I never watched his videos and didn't even hear of his channel until the news came out, but he seems like an amazing person and I'm sorry to see that he's gone.
Rip rest in peace mitten squad. Fly high my dear friend. I am very sad knowing this since mitten squad was one of my favourite gamers plus i am also subfive uggo like him and also i was getting bull ied mockedat and laughed at because of my una ttractiveness.
Poor mittens let the demons win …. I bet he debated so many times with fate begging to go home to play fallout sober …. God I can’t even play fallout 4 today it hurt hurts knowing what happened…. Anyone who used before knows fallout on drugs is something special and it just hurts me to see mittens never got help… drug/alcohol and fallout is therapeutic for depression in a sorry kind of way but to much is unhealthy and is just a mask for bigger issues poor mittens
Sooo maybe it sounds disrespectful but did his body surrender to the alcohol abuse or did he decide that he had enough of this life? In any case I can totally understand him, i can only imagine what his past looked like. Never forget, depression and mental health related things have many sides and everyone copes different with it. Curious how the news of the death of a pretty cool guy thst didn't even knew me still hits, I legit thought 1 week ago "huh what is MS currently doing"
I mean it is disrespectful. But to answer your question, no one knows exactly how he passed. His family haven't even made a statement to my current knowledge. So let's respect his family and their privacy, by just acknowledging that he is gone and many are grieving. I agree to your sentiments about mental health and addiction. I pray any going through hard times and/or addiction are inspired to pull through and seek help before it's too late.
the most respectful video i have seen thus far about mitten squad
i still cant believe he's gone. surreal. :(
I agree! Pyrocynical did a great and extremely respectful video about him.
R.I.P Joseph Wilson, "Paul".

Finally someone who made a proper commemoration vid instead of tryna ride the wave like everyone else. I love this, big ups to you.
Rest in Peace man. You brought joy to an entire generation!
He was the best. The content never felt formulaic or forced.

Paul was an amazing and wonderful creator and I wish I could have known him as a person. Thank you for devoting this to him.

MGS3 thumbnail, now thats a good respectable fitting thumb nail
This is indeed where the real game begins. Rest easy Paul. We'll miss you.
"I have no arms, yet I must dab." - Mitten Squad fallout 4 all limbs broken challenge.
He will be missed.
i had no idea Paul was 27. I’m 27. this shit hits hard. been playing skyrim for weeks and probably won’t stop for a while. thanks for such a heartfelt and respectful video. rip paul, this is where the real game begins.
I was hoping he would beat his alcohol addiction but he didn't but he attempted and that's what counts R.I.P Paul/Mitten Squad
his vids kept me company right when covid broke out and i was working at one of the few places still open. miss you bud, tysm for the tribute :,-( i'll miss grandma sparkle and the real gaming beginning.
I subbed dude keep it up and great tribute to Mitten Squad man

Rest in peace Paul, taken away too soon.
I really hope that in any future games from bethesda have a easter egg for Mittens. I know we all will love that.
I am schizophrenic and this resonates deeply. I am 11 years older than Paul but I would not be where I am without the mental health system.
RIP Paul. I never watched his videos and didn't even hear of his channel until the news came out, but he seems like an amazing person and I'm sorry to see that he's gone.
Damn he was the same age as me. Alcoholism is truly a horrific disease.
Well said brother.
He was a good man.
In less than a month we lost Matthew perry, AKA Benny in NV, and now Mitten Squad, a sad period for the fallout community
He helped me get through some tough times. Rest in peace paul you'll be missed
RIP Paul I will be on my way to the bar to meet up with you! My fellow Michiganian!!!
Fly high King, the real game starts now
Grandma Sparkle finally glitched the man out of existence. Gonna play some Fallout 3 and get my revenge!
Rest in peace, Mitten Squad
You really deserve more subs.
Damn ... I was seriously pulling for him. Hopefully, he got right with God.
Damn rest in peace buddy
The world is a bit worse now, and the wasteland has been changed forever.
Rip grandma sparkle and MittenSquad

Rip rest in peace mitten squad. Fly high my dear friend. I am very sad knowing this since mitten squad was one of my favourite gamers plus i am also subfive uggo like him and also i was getting bull ied mockedat and laughed at because of my una ttractiveness.
