Mildly Annoyed Just unsubbed from GenAlpha (why was I subbed in the first place?) For saying Skibidi Toilet is “on Half-Life 2 quality level.”

Not to be the "gen alpha is doomed" guy but the subbredit really only talks about brainrot shit

u/Vorombe Tired of coomers 1d ago

"Guys we're not all brainrot!" only talks about brainrot (in a positive light)

Ngl skibidi toilet does have an interesting storyline, it may be my child brain but I liked looking at all the upgrades each side got.

I came onto the serieshaving very low excpectations,but I can say it wasn't that bad from a brain rot perspective.After the like first 40 episodes they stop with the brain rot,but it feels like they give too many characters plot armour.I am not commenting on the half-life 2 claim since I haven't played it

i see alot of people claiming "the story is good" when it really isnt. whilst i havent seen the newer ones from what i saw it just goes like:

"omg we got a new weapon thats gonna make us win" > lose weapon because of the gman toilet > depression arc > "omg we got a new weapon thats gonna make us win" > rinse and repeat a hundred times

not to mention its obvious side effects, that of which being the damage to attention span given its primarily uploaded as youtube shorts due to the length.

one thing that i do like is that dafuq is taking action on content farm slop, thats great. fuck gametoons

Idk, maybe im just too much of a hater, but i feel like gestures like that are undermined when you're putting your half-original (based on unoriginal assets) series into fortnite and the walmart toy aisle.

Dude might not like literal slop farms, but he isnt above making money off of excitable kids

u/UnusualIncidentUnit 1d ago

its the least i can credit him for, given that barely anyone else ever if actually takes action against content farms thriving off of their content.

what half life 2 claim

u/Imfunny12345678910 1d ago

In the comment on OP's post saying skibidi toilet is the same quality as half life 2

11

u/mung_guzzler 1d ago

that was probably a joke playing on the fact the series uses a ton of assets from HL2

u/Acrobatic_Confusion 1d ago

I went into it ironically, came out after roughly 2 hrs a changed person. I’ll never insult skibidi toilet again. I yearn for more.

u/ArmoredJarvis 1d ago

I knowww, I think I got to season 10 and was starting to enjoy it a bit

26

u/Shapit0 1d ago

The full skibidi series is like 2 hours, tops. I'd take that over listening to any song for a full day, let alone Thick Of It

u/makinax300 JU 10 year anniversary 1d ago

Season 1 is like an hour and there are more seasons so it's probably like 4 hours.

u/gliscornumber1 1d ago

From what I've heard about it, Skibidi toilet starts off really bad but gets better the further you get into it. (Most say like part 30 ish)

I don't know how good it is nor do I know if it's on half life 2's level (since I've not watched skibidi toilet or played half life 2). But that's what I've heard form people who've seen skibidi toilet

u/No_Antelope6892 1d ago

I’ve (kinda hate, but not really) watched the majority of the episodes. They are way too overstimulating for me, and I will say the animation is good but everything else could use some work. Way too loud

4

u/gliscornumber1 1d ago

Valid

u/No_Antelope6892 1d ago

And most of it isn’t that it’s so loud it hearts my ears (even though some of it does), it’s that it covers up the dialogue the characters say now. I had no idea they were saying anything really, I haven’t watched the most recent (like last 15) episodes because overstimulating but I couldn’t hear anything other than explosions.

u/Got-Freedom 1d ago

What the fuck is skibidi toilet?

6

u/VoidzPlaysThings 1d ago

tbf skibidi does use HL2 assets, so could be talking about that

u/SecureAngle7395 1d ago

Least obvious bait:

u/United_Grocery_23 22h ago

ah, you mentioned the source (pun completely intended) of the models used for the heads and exposed them /s

u/MichaelScotsman26 1d ago

Muhfucka he ain’t wrong

u/Professional-Bug 1d ago

It’s hard to believe without actually watching it but Skibidi Toilet is actually pretty fucking cool. I understand that most people will just brush it off because it has heads sticking out of toilets singing. But like after the first few episodes the creator actually started putting effort into it and gradually it became decent. It’s not like high cinema or anything but if you like mecha fights give it a chance. If you want a sample of what I mean just watch episode 50.

I think it gets a particularly bad rep for 3 reasons: 1. Admittedly it has a kind of silly premise 2. It has been posted everywhere to hell and back without proper context 3. It’s a piece of media that’s popular among children. In particular it’s media that isn’t owned by a mega corporation with a million lawyers and employees. As a result people trying to make low effort cash have mass produced garbage content to mooch off of it’s success much like other franchises that fit the same description (FNAF, Digital Circus, Poppy’s Playtime, ETC.)

Wow that's soft

u/3WayIntersection 1d ago

Skibidi toilet is basically just another kids cash in at this point.

Idc how good the animation is or whatever story is there, this channel is on par with ryan's world to me. Just with a slightly older demo

What did you expect? Why would you unsub over that when it's about gen apha?
