Five years ago today we launched RKG.

It was a daunting proposition. We were leaving wonderful jobs, working with people we loved, to do something on our own. But instantly you made it all okay.  Actually, you made it incredible from the start. So we just wanted to write a short post to say ‘thank you’.

If you're not an RKG patron but love what we do, thank you for watching our videos, supporting us with your precious time and positive comments.

If you are an RKG patron, thank you for giving us the freedom to make the things we want. It’s an immense privilege for any creative person to have that opportunity once in their life. You’ve given us that for five years. So whether you’ve been here since day one, supported when you could, or joined more recently, thank you – your support has been behind everything we’ve achieved so far.

But the truth is you’ve made being an RKG patron into so much more. You haven't just funded our videos – you’ve formed a uniquely compassionate community around what we make. We see it every day in the comments left on Patreon and the interactions on Discord, where you support us and each other. We couldn’t have a better audience.

Thank you for not only believing in us but continually motivating us to be better.

Love from,

RKG x

john winchesman

Finding you guys on PTT all those years ago was an experience I will never forget! While I may support you here I cannot tell you how much support your videos gave me during the Covid years working 7 days a week for months on end. Here's to hoping for many years to come!

Sarah

Thank You! I'd surely have lost my mind by now without you boys! Sending love to the legends as always 🍻💗!

Alexis Van Swearingen

No lads, thank you. You and the community you’ve fostered have really helped me over the years with my depression. Here’s to many more years filled with sluggy fun!

Dean

You guys are the absolute best. Heres to another 5 years🍺🍺🍺

Chase Lipp

Congratulations, boys! We love you and all you do to make RKG what it is!

Andrew Beeken

Can't believe it's been 5 years! First watched you guys on the DS3 PTT as that was about the time these games finally clicked for me, and your Let's Play style is exactly what I needed in my life. Been lapping up your content (particularly your souls game runs) since then and it really makes me smile to see how you've been able to make RKG work. Raising a Roni to you three lovely lads!

Barney and The Wilf

Congratulations guys, still get excited on a Saturday morning when retry notification pops up on my phone. Here's to many more years of RKG x x

Conall Jennings

The best thing I've ever been a part of! Thank RKG and Slugs!

Phil Haynes

I think I speak for all of us when I say REEEEEEE

Linda Kelley

I'm a very old primal slug who found you by accident during a very tough time in my life. Your the grandsons I didn't know I needed. Whenever things get dicey I just rerun an episode and the sound of your voices keep me company while I go about my day. THANK YOU!!!!!!!!

Chris Crowe

Some people build homes, some people educate others or choose to heal the sick… you guys make and share joy for everyone. I am forever grateful to you guys for creating this perfect channel. It is priceless (although ‘early access’ tier is a good place to start)

Dan Kilrea

Been with ya since day 1 and I plan on stickin around to see the rest. You lads are truly special. Thank you

MKFreigeist

I tell people about RKG and the community around it all the time. You guys (and by that I mean the boys and the whole community) have been with me through a lot by now and I am very grateful for all the fun, support and ultimately sense of belonging I keep receiving here and I remain a proud slug to boot! To the fools!

Beardmask

Love all you boys! Keep up the great work.

Pasci

Love you guys!❤️

Bryer Rose McGregor

Been with you boys since the beginning of PTT and it's been worth every second and dollar. Congrats, lads! Here's to 5 more years and beyond 🍻

Lee Taylor

Love you chaps for being the genuinely beautiful souls you are. You've got a lot of people through some hard times including myself, here's to the next 500 years 🍻

Karine Bélair

Thank YOU, lads! Cheers to many more years!

Adam Cools

Love you guys thank you all for this incredible community, for all you do for us in the worst times, for the incredible content and giving every slug basically a new language to embrace just made from all the wonderful years together

Christian R

I remember the first time I watched a playthrough of you three. It's truly been a great journey and I look forward to see where it goes. 😀

Jesper Hansson

Im fairly certain I speak for all of your followers when I say: "No, thank you!"

stonedognz

You guys are great. I am binge watching everything RKG. Thankfully there is a lot of content and the banter bus is full of gas! Thank you!

Holly

Thank you for making such cool stuff, you’re one of my go-to comfort tv watches 💖

Will

Thank you guys for the years of laughs! Hope for many more!!!

The Cooks (slugs 4 life)

You guys are honestly the best. We even incorporated a little bit of ptt/rkg into our wedding!

Patrick Soliman

Thank you so much for your comfort and company in times of uncertainty. You will never understand the joy you bring whenever it's just you guys talking about whatever. Please continue to do what you do and we'll be sure to always support you until the end.

Sabine Pescheck

I’ve only known your channel for ca 1 1/2 years but I’m so glad that YouTube recommended the first demons souls episode to me one day! I became a patron a few months later because I really appreciate the quality of your work. I find a lot more value in this than monthly payments to some large corporation. Hope you have a great 2024!

Andy Crowder

Been around since the first Episode of Prepare to Try and you guys just keen getting better and better. Glad to be a Patreon. Keep up the smashing work xoxo

Grant Tunell

I cannot express how much I appreciate you lads. Your content is a bright spot in what is the rough existence that we all eke out on the daily. Thank you for all that you do. Keep up the great work! To the fools!

Tommy Baker

Congratulations, and thank you all so much! 💙💜❤️💛

Carl Jackson

Thank you so much for what you’ve created, both with your videos and for the wonderful community you’ve help create. Your videos and this community are always a bright ray of sunshine of a gloomy day. Thank you and here’s to many more years to come! ❤️

Brad Barrett

Always a bit terrified these sort of posts are “…but we’ve decided to stop and do something else.” I’ll take however many years you want to keep doing this because it is a hell a lot of fun and the extra content for Patrons this year has been the best yet. Looking forward to 2024 with you. See you in Elden Ring!

Chetan Gairola

Congratulations to half a decade Boys, that’s a major accomplishment. Thank you for sharing your camaraderie with the rest of us, most especially with the Souls and similar games. Cheers to the boys and their slugs!

Jon Goodridge

Cant believe 5 years have gone already. Thank you guys for the amazing content you have given us and for making this amazing community. Here's to another 5 years 🍾

Paul Mitchell

Congratulations guys and keep doing what you’re doing because it is so, so good. You might not see it from the inside, but the chemistry you guys have is truly unique. We can all see the hard work and thought that goes into the production of everything you do.

Daniel Hurley

Congratulations! Y'all have truly achieved everyone's dream- doing what you love with your friends, for a living. I'll always be happy to support that for people that provide so much comfort to so many people, and for myself.

Chad Turner

I remember seeing this IGN UK video called Prepare to Try about some guys trying to get their mate to finish dark souls before dark souls 3 came out. The rest is history. My favourite content creators by a country mile. The best community by a quantic kilometre (yeah I made that up). You guys, and this community, have been there for me through so much, and in genuinely can't thank you enough. I cannot wait to get to meet you guys in person one day and buy you a round. I genuinely love you guys so much. Thank you, and congratulations on 5 years. Cheers to many many more. To the fools! 🍻🫶

Lou

Congrats lads on 5 years and also thank YOU for gracing us with your fantastic, hilarious content!

Charity Gage

It's all because of your Prepare to Try videos that I even touched the FromSoft games, so becoming a Patron was a no-brainer for me!

Kenneth Allsop

Congrats on five years, guys - I can't believe it's been that long already! Here's to many more to come. <3

Matthew Edwards

Congrats lads!! 🥳 A truly incredible accomplishment and I couldn't be prouder to be a part of this community. To the fools!

David Baker

From DS1 to now you guys have only continued to smash it. My inner child has awakened again at the thought of being able to catch the next Ep of ER. Thank you!

William Errey

You slugs are awesome. Praise the sun!

Johnathan Smith

Been watching since the beginning. When PTT first started this girl I liked would sit and watch along with me. That girl became my wife and now if she hears me chuckling with headphones on she will demand I switch to speakers because she "misses hearing the boys." You guys are practically family here. Congrats lads. Hope you all keep doing what you love no matter what.

André Lima Araújo

You guys are model of sustainability, originality and control. You know who you are, what you want to do and you do it with care and craft. Hence an audience that loves you and supports you directly. It's all well deserved. To the fools!

John Roebuck

Happy 5 years! Time flies! I shall continue to support you on two conditions: 1. You continue to make the things you want to make. 2. You stop making them if and when you no longer want to make them. Hopefully I'll be writing this again in 5 more years and beyond!

trfgvb

You boys are absolute legends. I love Let's Plays, and in an era where they're dying because livestreams replaced them, you guys are elevating the format to a fucking artform. Not only is your dynamic and banter hilarious, but your uncompromising dedication to quality is very refreshing and appreciated. I gained a whole new level of respect for you guys when you put the Sekiro LP on hold during the pandemic because you knew it would suffer from not recording together in person. You recognize that your output is not just disposable content, but entertainment people will discover and rewatch for years. You slugs are seriously the best to ever do it.

Phillif

It can't have been 5 years already, can it...? 5 years ago I was in my student flat in munich. Jesus, time flies man. Thanks for 5 great years of fun and entertainment! <3
