It's important to watch videos to the end.
I watched the Narc video on why he quit. I expected to hear more than talking points from last summer that have been easily disproven for a while now. I also expected to hear the smug superiority and I wasn't disappointed.
I think the biggest issue is that Ashes of Creation is behind his perceived schedule for his channel and that's creating a conflicting issue monetarily, so he's moving on. This is completely understandable. Luckily the internet is forever and we can find the truth in the end.
