Hey everyone!Will be dropping new videos soon, getting onto recording and resuming the LPs.I am taking a short break from Streaming (besides the game days) to get back on track here. I just wrapped up the finale to one of the FFXIV Expansions so it's a great place to pause before starting the next.To be transparent, I've been honestly feeling very low and depressed lately for a variety of reasons - a few things going on and didn't want low quality videos while feeling so drained. I've had a physical medical issue mixed with not much sleep, a busy schedule, and I just feel pretty shit about myself overall lately, so it's just been a process.On top of that, I also got a bit caught off guard by emotions surrounding Destiny's end of service (and to be a little selfish here for once haha), I have absolutely been enjoying a bit of "brain off" gaming, not focusing on recording or doing commentary but instead been spending time recovering from my low energy vibes with a game that I have played over the last 12 years and put a significant amount of love into. It's sad to see it go, I know Destiny doesn't have a huge presence on my channel outside of streaming three of the expansions but I appreciate this time to try and recharge a little.I appreciate your patience with this unexpected gap and kind words about relaxing. As always I communicate with a feeling of guilt as I don't wish to leave people hanging on for content for too long, I didn't plan on the break but I just kind of hit a mental wall. Back to regularly scheduled programming soon <3

Hey mate, hope you feel better soon. I haven't done a recording myself in almost two months from being sick. And as much as I hate it, I totally get what you mean with playing a game without recording for a change - I've been replaying Dark Souls 2 just for myself and it's been kind of cathartic 🤣 take care of yourself and don't let the world get you down.

We appreciate the honesty, take all the time you need! The end of service for destiny really sucks

Do your thing man. I think sometimes you punish yourself with the sheer pace of things. Keep your health in check especially. Mental and physical. It's not a problem to us.

Ben

Take all the time you need. Will still be here and your health takes priority. ❤️‍🩹

Mapo, the last thing you should feel is the guilt. You create amazing content and created one of my favorite channels on the platform. As much as I anticipate new Splinter Cell episodes your well being comes first. Sometimes we all need a break to switch off, reset or recover. I could hardly call it a break when I can see you streaming FFXIV daily. Take more time off, do a complete reset where you don't need to think about putting new content and rather focus on yourself. We will be here and will continue to support you and your channel any way we can. But we need you to be in a good shape, physically and mentally. That's non negotiable. If that means a longer break - it's ok. We will wait. Take a good care about yourself and thank you for all the hard work and love you put in you channel and building a community around it.

Take the time you need, we’ll be here when you get back! We’d all much rather wait for a happy Mapo, no question.

Burn out is real and it sucks. You’re doing the right thing and taking a break. Touch lots of grass, talk to lots a great people, and play with lots of dogs

Freddie

And we'll be here as always letting you know it's okay and that we want you to take breaks like this if needed, we are people first and content creators or whatever second. Trying to push through when you're health issues usually just leads to bigger problems so take care of yourself. Besides it's much preferable to see you having fun and enjoying doing lets plays, and not forcing yourself to do it.

a bit of solo travelling might do you good. always does the trick with me. seeing the world has a way of reinvigorating us

Simone Seguin

No one is as hard on you as you are, Mapo! Please treat yourself with kindness.

Jake

I figured you hit a wall and needed to take some time. No worries. Get yourself right!

KhadaRagnar

I can't count the amount of times I saw comments saying that your videos helped someone through bad moments, or that made their days. Don't worry, take your time and rest. We don't go anywhere. Trust me when I say we all want you to feel better ♥ Take care

Jordan

Sending you big love from Japan, whether you want it or not!

violet

no worries mapo, a break is needed every once in a while!! and hope you are feeling better soon! you're the best!

Jessie Hephner

Awesome. Ive been a watcher of yours since you started you channel during the covid pandemic Im glad your playing Chrono trigger, its such a legendary game. Just wait till you go to the ocean palace

Sebastian Krüger

Listen up, mf'er. I want to make the following crystal clear: if you don't chill tf out, I'll book the next available flight to huntsman spider country and make you chill. I'd go as far as poking you with a pointy stick, if that's what it takes for you to motherfudging rest once in a while. Got that? I guess I'm talking for most of your following, when I say that we rather have a quarter of the content you put out, if that means you can relax and be in good health and spirit. Sincerely, please take care of yourself. G'bye

James McCarthy

No worries Mapo how you feel up for more gaming soon. You are between games i am interested in at present so i just check back occassionally but keep the funding going since i love what you do. Hope you feel better soon (:

DeviousDoggo

Sheesh, this guy worried about us? You dont owe us any of this honestly , I enjoy anything you put out at any time. You've become my favorite youtuber for many reasons and Im here for it.

Alicia M.

mapo 😭💖💖💖 sending you the biggest biggest hug, friend. you take all the time you need. ive recently been able to get back on a med that assists my anti depressant and it was like coming out of a fog I didnt know I was in. I really hope you are able to catch up on your rest and enjoy the gaming that's just for you. your health is more important than anything. love you, big dawg!

Sean O'Neill

It’s all good Mapo, no need to feel guilty, you don’t owe anyone anyrhing. While I’m bouncing off the walls waiting for the next Chrono Trigger drop, I understand that burnout happens and sometimes you just gotta take some time off to recharge and get your head straight. We’ll be here when vids start dropping again, in the meantime I hope you’re doing better and feeling better.
