What happened to Pasky?

Post by HueSaturation »

Both his YouTube page and his Twitch are cleaned out. All my favorite 1cc vids of his that I added to my personal playlist are at least still there, but set to private. He was a fantastic 1ccer especially on Neo Geo and also introduced me to a lot of awesome exotic 90s arcade games. He also orchestrated the 1cc Marathon on Twitch as far as I know.

It will be a serious loss if this is permanent. Even his recording methods were top tier, with crisp 60fps image quality at the right aspect ratio. I’m already jonesing badly for his King of the Monsters 2 playthroughs among others.

He's one of my favourites too. I hope everything's alright.

His Twitch shows as having streamed 5 days ago, but all content such as avatar and prior clips are gone. Very odd, whatever's going on is recent. :/

Maybe someone was the last stream and can chime in. Never heard of them myself but this seems abrupt.

He's taking a break to focus on work and other stuff.

Since when does "taking a break" require deleting all of your Youtube videos though?

I dunno but I believe the videos are de-listed and private, not deleted.

I wonder/suspect that he's doing a re-branding of his channel. Either way he's a cool dude so I hope everything works out for him.

This guy seems to just straight-up disappeared from the scene altogether.

I don't fully understand the situation, but this isn't the first time this has happened. He's deleted his Twitch videos in the past, and after some of whatever drama went down involving the 1CC marathons years ago, he seems to have specifically requested all of the videos of his runs from the marathons deleted from their channel.

There must be a script that will run your playlist through archive.org

He's been streaming one of the recent Doom games quite regularly, makes me motion sick trying to watch because he's speed running it - no mic, I think he's quite tired of social media etc.

Youtube-dl would be ideal for this, maybe. It's just an ordinary playlist, so it should be supported [so just 'youtube-dl [favorites url]'].
I dunno if it'd choke or not on 7000 videos though.
Come check out my website, I guess. Random stuff I've worked on over the last two decades.

Just had to say the he brought his YT vids back, thank god.

Now, smoke up this fine 1cc of Riding Fight while you can. Very likely the best playthrough of it on YT.

Really enjoyed his streams and his choice of games, though the wife would often complain about him swearing too much :lol:
