I once told a friend about an old animated film, that one famous director spent many years and tens of millions of dollars on, only for it to die in production hell, because of the perfection the director demanded. The friend then said that they should have simply spent more money and time on the movie. He then questioned why all animation shouldn't be 60 FPS, if you love your job you would want to make it as good as possible, right? I love you and your videos, Phillip, but I gotta be honest - as a layman, I never really notice the difference between the videos you spent 4 hours or a month on, even though I watch 99% of them. If I were to give an objective, third person view of your content and why I like it - it's that I like seeing you talk on random topics I never thought about, but seem interesting in retrospect, you make the most mundane stuff interesting to listen to. I'm not into graphics cards or processors, but hearing you talk about this stuff is educational. (maybe I just like British accents, I watched the entirety of Hilda because everyone had cute accents) So I personally just want to see you passionately talk about random stuff you find interesting, making me find it interesting in turn. Don't know if this helped, but I wish you well anyway.

Sounds like Thief and the Cobbler, animated almost entirely on ones (so at 24 FPS, not 60), and the painstaking agony those poor animators went through really shows in the Recobbled Cut. Which is a shame, because the movie's plot and pacing isn't that good, but it's still worth a watch.

There is a Russian fellow, Yuri Norstein, who has taken 42 years to make an animated film called Шине́ль (the Overcoat). According to Wikipedia he finished 30 out of planned 65 minutes as of 2007. His animations are absolutely beautiful but they are so intricately made they take an absurd amount of time. Apparently he also is quite selective on who he accepts money from, only taking a few boxes of lightbulbs from Aardman (people who made Wallace and Gromit, Chicken Run, ETC.)

When I moved to the U.S back in 2014 (I was in middle school), I couldn't speak a word of English. However I did love CS, and would try my best to practice my english playing it. Part of it was watching 3kliksphilip videos to practice my english, so all the 3 channels are very especial to me. As you have said on the video, there is def a difference in between a video that is sucessfully "professionally" and successfully "artistic" I would say. I love when you cover different games, that Hitman video was one of my favorites when it comes to different games for example, and I feel like the people who did watch really enjoyed it. But sadly, views are views on a video, and the "quality" of the view isn't what puts the bread on your table at the end of the day. I hope you can still make really good quality videos on different games on the future, even if it's a lower quantity so it doesn't take as much time, especially since I don't play CS anymore as much, so I've been enjyoing 2kliks videos more hehe. Anyways, happy New Years Philip!

I watch every single video of yours. And when i say "every single", I really do mean every. single. video. (1)kliks, 2kliks, 3kliks, i watch them all. I've probably watched 9/10 videos you've uploaded since 2015. I've even chatted with your dad on twitter about his music and listened to each of his albums. I was 11 years old when you uploaded the game making journey, and that inspired me to start making my own games, which was the start of me using a computer to do stuff i enjoy. Thanks for that. 2kliks has been my favourite channel this year. The graphics card videos I love, especially those about intel arc. I thought your videos on starfield and hogwarts legacy were good too (especially the latter) but it's a shame that starfield isn't the game I wanted it to be. My favourite videos on 2kliks is about graphical stuff, HDR, DLSS, aswell as AI. For 2024 i'd love for you to make even more videos about/using stablediffusion, maybe even tutorials, but I don't know if you like SD that much. But, for example, a video on Midjourney V5 vs V6, or stable diffusion v1.5 vs SDXL 1.0, that would be interesting to me even though I use the software every day and already know a bit about these topics. 3kliks hasn't been disappointing, I especially love all the videos on CS2. But I can't say that I'm not shocked (or perhaps, a little disappointed) that the old-school experiment-type videos didn't come back. I expected videos on smokes, where you designed maps in Hammer2 and tested how the smokes reacted in different environments. Do they go through doors? How do they work underwater? How do they work in tunnels? I expected more videos on hammer2 too. But the vids on CS2 have been interesting and I'm glad to see the videos doing quite well. I know exactly how you feel about passion projects vs success. I'm currently studying engineering. It's okay, I don't hate it but I don't like math too much and have no real interest in becoming a project leader (likely my job post-graduation). I chose it because the money is good. If I were to follow my passion I would study graphic design, in which there is little money to be had. Luckily I'll major in machine learning, which is right up my alley with the AI stuff, but my bachelor is of little interest to me. My only motivation is knowing what's ahead (machine learning) and just focusing on getting good enough grades to have an exchange year in Kyoto. I don't know why I started ranting about myself, but at least you know that you are not alone in your struggles. i didn't mean this comment to be a "here's what i liked and disliked and here's what you should do in 2024" because whatever you upload I will watch. You and I have a lot of similar hobbies, perhaps because my early years of learning technology were so heavily influenced by what you uploaded. Like I said, I tried making games because you did. I tried making csgo maps too, and music, I even tried learning excel when i was weirdly young to learn excel just because I wanted to make graphs like you did. And so, each video you upload either is interesting to me or will likely become interesting to me. For example, I had not used AI to make pictures before I started seeing your AI videos. Now that is literally all I do when I'm not studying. So, all in all, thank you Philip for these 9-something years of content. You've thoroughly changed how I am as a person and I honestly have no clue what I would be doing today if it wasn't for your videos.

That video has inspired a few hundred hours of gameplay that I have enjoyed very much. I thank you for that!

I found your channel(s) this year before starting playing counter strike myself and I must say, I love them. It's a breath of fresh air to see someone like you covering other, more technical topics of the game and its graphics rather than exclusively shitting on valve for not immediately making a perfect game and covering all these other topics everyone else covers already. As a commenter said on atomic amnesia: I've never seen anyone so hardworking and willing to keep 3 channels going all by themself while also making music and what not. You're an incredibly talented person and I must say that you've inspired me and influenced the few videos I make on my channel including writing and editing. You have incredible insight and seem so down to earth and relateable despite being nearly 20 years older than me, not calling you old here of course! I've always been interested in videogame technicality and history so your channels provide me with just that itch, and kliksphilip's a great bonus.

Hey Philip, thank you for the year 2023 and for the entertainment you've given us. I personally don't really care about CS2 the game, so I am one of those viewers who watch mainly your niche videos on 2kliksphilip or this channel. If it helps, I am a viewer who likes videos about the technical aspects of CS2 and the Source 2 engine rather than playing the game and that's my reason for still watching a few 3kliks videos. But I think I've seen almost every 2kliks video just for the fact that it's intereseting to me, the same way it is to you. For example, I again don't really care about Starfield as I don't think I would play it, but I am fascinated by the world generation and you did a great job covering it. Lastly, I have also seen every video on this channel, because apart from the technical topics, I like you as a person and your insights into your personal life make me compare your opinions with mine. As you mentioned, today's KZitem is flooded with companies and studios making content, so having you still around helps me appreciate KZitem the way I did 10 years ago, when I started watching you in my teenage years. So, thanks again and good luck in 2024!

Reading other comments and realized that I’ve been watching your videos since I was 10 or 11 and now I’m about to graduate high school. I’ve watched almost every single one of your videos from each channel since I’ve subscribed.

I usually don't comment often, but seeing this video and how the youtube trends have been, I just thought I'd say you are probably the most interesting, insightful and entertaining youtuber I've ever watched. It's a shame the modern youtube landscape has changed so much into something I don't appreciate too much, but all good things to do come to an end. But just know that I'll stick with the klikempire until the bitter end, you've been the one of the best youtubers I've ever watched even when I started watching all the way back in 2017. I'm glad you finally got around to finishing Audio Crime 2, I've been a huge fan of you and your dad's music for many many years, "That Night Before" and "That Morning After" definitely being the highlights to me for Audio Crime 2 but the whole album is definitely no slack either.

Dear Philip, I hope you are doing well. I love your content ever since i first saw it, back in 2017. I've watched hours upon hours of your videos. I really enjoy your way of speaking your mind, the script you make, the effort you put in, the music you make as well(i even used it in cs :D). Much love from Brazil! Ps: this is just an appreciation comment. Thanks for the amazing years of content

I just sorta started watching your videos in the last third of the year. I really enjoy listening to you go super in depth on random things even if I just have it on while I execute tasks. I usually klik on your videos whenever I see them on my homepage and I’ll go back and watch the 3 videos you mentioned on 2klik. I am usually a lurker but I guess it might be nice to hear from a silent majority person rather than a small upset group once in a while :-)

Your work ethic and moral backbone always amazes me. Most youtubers your size would settle for Raid ads and churning whatever content they can upload. Yet, your channels have consistent quality that is still improving steadily. I especially like 2kliks "entertainment" content, vertical slice being a great example you've mentioned.

Personally, and I dunno if this comment will be useful or not, my favorite videos of yours are the ones where you just...talk. Talk about yourself. Talk about your life. The video where you talked about taking walks every day is one of my favorites of all time. I may have started watching your videos for your CS content, but I grew to enjoy listening to the person behind the videos as well. I'm not sure how well these videos do in the grand scheme of things, but I personally enjoy hearing about your history.

Thanks phillip for 2023, i watch some of your video because i find it very unique tone wise, your videos just feels quirky and relaxing in some way, which one of the reason why i watch your videos, it's very unique to me. I appreciate your video despite having low count view. It's unfortunate that your's high effort video doesn't get the attention that it deserve. That said, Thanks Phillip, you're one of the best youtube channel i've watch this year.

In my opinion your most interesting videos are in depth videos about small details. Things like a missing texture or something like the chickens in cs:go inferno. Those videos stuck with me the most and is what drew me into your videos in the first place. So I really hope you will be able to mix the passion with more viable smaller videos. Also, I can't wait to see more about destruction Darius 2, as your game making videos got me into your channels in the first place. They are even the reason I started playing Counter Strike. Thank you for all you have already done. And I can not wait what the future holds!

Hey Philip, that part at the beginning about how you were feeling similar to Tom Scott, but then you said all the ways you felt you weren't as good hit me hard. I'm going through a similar thing in music school right now, where I feel like I'm succesful but not as much as my peers. I have to remind myself that my success is measured by my goals and desires, and has nothing to do with others, that sometimes helps.

your "beyond the edge" video was not a waste, its a great research into the terrain generation of starfield thats very imformative, and will be used in arguements for years to come :) (no sarcasm) you are genuinly the most unique and original creator i have continued to follow on youtube, your thoughtfulness really puts a purpose into your videos

Flaming tar barrels video genuinely was super interesting to me. I watched that when it came out and have thought about the festival plenty times since. Ive even mentioned to friends about how cool it would be to go visit the UK and take part in such a thing. Idk how to quantify such a thing but every work has value to someone

I only found out about your channel(s) the past year. I don't play Counter Strike, but got recommended your shorts anyway. I've now watched a lot of your recent videos through KZitem recommendations. I'll check out the non-numbered channel, don't think I got it recommended yet. Looking forward to what you'll come out with next, on any of the channels.

I always love watching your content! It's often a must click when it shows up on my feed. However, over the last year I watched KZitem a lot less due to being busy which caused me to miss a few videos. I definitely want to thank you for making the content you make. It's always a great time investment to watch them and I love the information I get from them. It's a unique view at games from other channels and that makes it fun to watch. Thank you Philip!
