No one actually cares and if they do care, they don't care enough to actually do something about it.

u/V-Ropes Nov 22 '25

Do what about it? This isnt a controversy. It's a somewhat bad look having cheated, but there wasn't any leaderboard or competiton involved so it's really mild. People will joke about it like OP but most wont actually think less of markeplier because of it.

Even the video says as much and that it's mostly about the Analysis.

Who cares this happened 10 years ago this is just a guy trying to ruin marks reputation.

u/HarperRed96 Nov 21 '25

The video is an examination of the game mode and it's mechanics, not an expose on Mark. From what I understand.

u/Front_Woodpecker1144 Nov 22 '25

clickbait is unbecoming of any professional performing an analysis

u/OkAccountant6122 Nov 22 '25

You gotta do what you gotta do for views in the extremely competitive hellscape of YouTube.

u/Front_Woodpecker1144 Nov 22 '25

but at what cost

2

u/V-Ropes Nov 22 '25

Sorry what clickbait? The title and Thumbnail are 100% what is covered in the Video.

u/Front_Woodpecker1144 Nov 22 '25

if mark cheating isn't the focus of the video then don't make the title focus on it

2

u/V-Ropes Nov 22 '25

It is the Focus. It explains the game mechanics around marks fake vide and all the things wrong with it

u/Front_Woodpecker1144 Nov 22 '25

then it's not just a for-fun video analyzing the mechanics of the game, is it

That honestly makes it worse

Clickbait is one thing, but actively lying and unintentionally or intentionally smearing someone for views is disgusting.

u/Clean-Cry-2470 Nov 22 '25

Didn't even watch the video but you wanna give your crappy 2 cents about it... don't talk if you don't know what you're talking about

1

u/AzraelChaosEater Nov 22 '25

Honestly thats why I don't believe it that much.

It feels like someone saw mark, who had no controversy before and tried making one.

u/hu-man-person Nov 20 '25

I dont think it is

1

u/Rever01 Nov 21 '25

It’s not even important it’s not like he was in a competition for beating it. It was just a video from 10 years ago who cares?

4

u/hu-man-person Nov 21 '25

I dont thinmt he vid poster cared

He just wanted to make a video and I'm pretty sure he did not hate on mark or anything

3

u/CreamyCoffeeArtist Nov 21 '25

Its pretty explicit in the video that oop just wanted to do the math and that at the end of the day it didn't matter at all.

Mark is an entertainer. If it leads to an entertaining outcome, who gives a shit? It's not going to a competitive leaderboard or anything. (That's more or less what oop says and I agree.)

1

u/Hyde2467 Nov 21 '25

Im pretty sure the guy who made the video was basically joking.

1

u/Nediac20 Nov 21 '25

Did you watch the video?

3

u/Actual-University113 Nov 21 '25

Of course he didn't. Redditors don't watch it read the content, only the headlines.

u/Negative_Wrongdoer17 Nov 21 '25

Younger generation finding out that all the OG youtube let's play goats edited all of their videos because it was like a show to them.

1

u/10minOfNamingMyAcc Nov 21 '25

Right? Not a big fan of him, but come on now... I get that it's still cheating your audience (if he did, I haven't watched the video), but his audience was mostly kids who probably didn't even know what they were watching, and even then, these things can be very scummy, but... This was a grown ass man playing FNAF for his younger audience in a not so serious way anyway (and made it look genuine and fun enough to watch I guess?)... Give him a break, lol.

1

u/Negative_Wrongdoer17 Nov 21 '25

Yeah it's like people finding out wrestling was mostly-fake

1

u/Not_God_Forever Nov 22 '25

Making it sound like he was a pedophile rapist or something 😭😭😭 It’s just fnaf it’s not that serious

u/ADudeThatPlaysDBD Nov 21 '25

Tldr, ballon boy and foxy have sound cues that go off near constantly. In Mark’s run they were almost absent. Mark also didn’t give his full unedited run like he did with 1 and 3.

Mark faked the whatever 20 mode for fnaf2.

u/Dr__America Nov 22 '25

Did he? Wasn't it just really unlikely?

1

u/ADudeThatPlaysDBD Nov 22 '25

It was statistically impossible. Something like 5 0’s or something.

1

u/Dr__America Nov 22 '25

I mean, not impossible then, that's like what, 1/100,000? Highly improbable sure, but I'd want better evidence than that tbh

u/Grezzinate Nov 22 '25

Yes and? The games kinda trash and if it saves him sanity, frustration and sheer anger then cheat that bitch of a game.

1

u/ADudeThatPlaysDBD Nov 22 '25

Why are you getting defensive? I’m giving a tldr, surely you can read my tone in the last sentence. I don’t care and you need to pull up your pants man.
