Game Theory... What Happened To You?

By far my *FAVOURITE* video on this channel!
Happy 10th Game theorists🥳

"That is not an exaggeration; I have officially been out of the closet for one, whole, year!"
-Matpat, my favorite out-of-context line so far

Editors : let's make the thumbna-
Mat : DARK SECRET

"YOU NEVER LEAVE THE CLOSET STEPHANIE, THE CLOSET NEVER LEAVES YOU"
-MatPat 2021

Seeing just a few images of Ronnie's edits hit me hard. I always enjoyed his cartoonish and colorful editing style.
Rest in peace, Ronnie. We all miss you.

I cant stop laughing at the "Child who believes 4AM is a perfectly good time to wake up everyone" part. That's like litterally every toddler ever.

I love the thought that the editors had to edit themselves saying how hard editing is

never ever change the cutout picture of you MatPat
its the signature of the channels
we all love it

Mat and Steph: Having an emotional moment
Austin: AND ME AUSTIN!!!!

Austin looks like he wants to be the mean and loud character but he's secretly sweet and wholesome

MatPat celebrating the best editors on KRplus is the energy we all needed.

I think that this video explains really well why Mat Pats leaving 😭

10:04 "IT'S FNAF" hilarious always gets me

Matpat: turn up the camera exposure.
Camera: it only goes to-
Matpat: TURN UP THE EXPOSURE

Why am I happier that steph was actually answering the emails rather than Matpat... She may not be the face of the channel, but she is the perfect wife for Matpat...Congrats Mat, you got a good one.

"He still thinks he's import- I can't even say that!"
MatPat: Listen here you little-

I'm sorry but even tho MattPat is trying to shoot a scene of "this is real and kinda miserable" and can't help but smile as his son grabs onto him to try and play absolutely hit my heart.

“He composed a lot of the cringy parodies we used”
*Proceeds to show Psychic Friend Fredbear, probably one of the best songs that came out of Game Theory*

i missed seeing steph on gtlive and i occasionally go back to the old ones to see her again but i didnt realize just how much she had to do. Taking care of a kid, doing all the stuff mat does and more and meeting with merch companies, lawyers, etc,etc. i understand now why she had to leave, but we will always miss her.

Despite all the creativity it works so well together that you don't even noticed it's made by a deiffrent person. Everyone does SOOO WELLL. And Steph is like the mom not only in real life but she likes a mom to the team.

theory: this is steph's channel, she just used a voice changer and found a dude who sounds close enough to what the changer sounded like

We all know Mat Pat really starts his day with “Wake up babe, new FNAF lore...”

19:36 THERE'S A FACE BEHIND DISORDERED "Food Theory" LOGO, IF YOU SLOW DOWN THE FOOTAGE AND REVERSE COLORS YOU'LL SEE IT ON CENTER

This video has a whole different take now that MatPat is retiring

PLEASE NEVER CHANGE THE CUTOUT OF YOURSELF THAT YOU USE FOR THEORIES 😭

"We give him about 10 minuets at the start of each shift. I don't think most people even pay attention. Is it productive? No, but it makes him feel better." You have such a nice team haha.

Let's be honest, as long as there are mystery questions about ANYTHING, this channel can't die. This guy is a genius, UNLIMITED CONTENT.

"Jayson is pretty much my boss right now..."
Oh, how the turned tables!

Can we give Stephanie an award for hardest working KRplus Mom? Is that too much to ask?

Matpat meeting the pope was the weirdest flex in those 10 years

"Boop Boop Beep. I edited."
Has me in tears, Steph is an amazing person!

THREE EDITORS WORK ON THE SAME VIDEO I HAD NO CLUE. EVERYTHING IS SO SEAMLESS GREAT JOB LOVE THE VIDEOS.

"child who believes 4AM is a perfectly good time to wake up everyone"
my dog: "Well, of course I know him, he's me."

The mention of Ronnie broke my heart. His editing was a big part of why I fell in love with game theory. RIP Ronnie
Time stamp: 19:08

And here's to another decade hits real hard right now

10:55 it's like MatPat's trying to open up something... and 2 years after this video released, here we are. MatPat's leaving.

*”Child who believes 4AM is a perfectly good time to wake everyone up.”*
Another thing I noticed on the whiteboard was:
*“Is my dad”* connected to *“my stepdad?”*

I like how his kid literally plops in to faceplant on the bed at the very start. He's so cute XD

I cannot express the serotonin!!!! I love seeing the dynamics of everyone on the show!

27:30 ~ 28:00
is my favorite part, got a bit of Vine/TikTok/YTShorts energy

Ollie face-planting in the background, perfectly timed, was by far the best part of the video. I can't believe he's already two years old.

My heart broke when Steph said she sometimes has to use Mat’s email to be taken seriously.

and now, after all this years, matpat finally got the holiday he deserves. we'll be WAITING for him to pop up at times, of course

Wow that's a lot of stuff MatPat and Steph had on their plate, even with the help of such a big team. I'm still sad that they won't be a big part of their Theory Channels anymore. But after watching this video, I'm impressed that they were able to have this kind of routine for 13 years! I mean, doing double the amount of videos needed in order to go on vacation sounds so sad! 😢 I hope you guys don't have to work so hard in order to enjoy your future vacations. 💖

I CAN'T STOP LAUGHING OVER THE FACT THAT HIS COMPUTER SLEEP SCREEN SAYS "SANS IS NESS"

this is the most insane behind the scene video i have ever seen and i love it

"Here's to another decade ahead"

You are the best, MatPat

The fact that you're meeting a lot of fans at home depot speaks to your demographic

In all honesty, abt 80% of that wheel should be FNAF. In all seriousness, this video makes me appreciate the whole theorist team a lot more, thx for the videos guys!

I’m sensing a pattern with all of these past MatPat content right after he decided to quit. I get it KRplus, I totally get it, everyone is in tears but *holding back my tears* the show must go on.

I feel like Matt is the guy presenting the video and Stephanie is the person making sure it isn’t on fire

Is everyone really gonna overlook the fact that one of MatPats potential theories is "Is Scott Cawthon my Dad"?

If there’s one thing I’ve always noticed about these theory channels, it’s that the thumbnails are always eye-catching and are actually pretty great! Thanks to the whole theory team, the work and effort you put in is obvious and appreciated! 💜
Also, Ollie is _ADORABLE!_ 🥰💜

Its insane how well he used to edit the 2d cutout moving like a real person. Gonna miss him.

"This is Steph. She's the only person who knows FNAF as well as I do" "Only because I can't unsee it" Same Steph. Same.

I just want to imagine that MatPat says “Hello internet. Welcome to Game Theory.” when he wakes up.

I've never realized how much work goes into your videos, I've considered it but seeing stuff like this makes me appreciate it so much more, thank you all for all your work, every upload makes my day and I always watch to the end to try to satisfy the algorithm as well.

Matpat has inspired me to make my own channel I don't know much of how to edit or animate anything yet but I'm trying hard to learn to be able to be like him and have my own channel though i appreciate all his hard work and everyone else's. Thank you so much for the many many years worth of hard work to educate and entertain us

The way the rest of team talk about mat it's like he is there little baby brother XD

6:15 MatPat: Steph are there to make sure I didnt publish something inappropriate
Steph: An episode about fake bo0bs on video games? This will be fine.
😂😂😂

Austin was the best random surprise in this video

I can't believe he called the Physic Friend Fredbear cringy, that song had been stuck in my head for longer than I care to admit

This really puts into perspective that Mat is the FOUNDER and the VOICE/FACE of the Game Theorists. As he's really the only one you see on the channel, I can see lots of people thinking he literally does everything

14:25 “I Have A Problem”😭

I have been watching game theory for half my life and it’s one of the only channels that always releases bangers thank you to the whole team

You’ve gotta love how multiple parts of the video are just Matt having a mental breakdown about something and everyone else just being there like “yeah this is normal”

I love that Jason is actually the boss of all things and everyone is actually dancing to HIS tune.

When you come back to watch this a year later and realise that this was simultaneously a "now hiring" spot for Style Theory, as well as an ad for selling the Theorists Channel and ensuring that the entire team is a package deal.

best part of the video:
“while a videos being edited-“
“*AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA*”

You haven't been ruining childhoods, you've made them better.

You guys are amazing!! I love insider videos on the process behind channels and projects, so this was just wonderful!

29:42 He won’t be here for long 🥲

I love everyone treating Matthew like an unruly toddler XD “we don’t actually have spreadsheets on that I just tell him something to make him feel better”

Austin gushing over Matt and his excitement for fnaf was just too adorable for my heart to take

Saw this come up on my feed, the title really hits hard after the "Goodbye Internet" video.

Dartboard, is accurate, but the back of the board that it's stuck too, the wall, the floor, and the ceiling are also fnaf.

13:42
"I've officially been out of the closet for one whole year" - Matpat

I love how mat is treated like a kid and the ‘I just say this to make him feel better.’

13:52 Favorite part

1:10 that was one of the best scenes

Matpat is the Michael Scott of the Theorist team, loves his job, drives his employees insane, and makes the weirdest requests

If there's anything that I learned about MatPat from this video, it's this: *_HE USES LIGHT MODE FOR KRplus_*

Cheers to Lee and Amy. Don't know why but I feel like they've got more in store!

R.I.P. 1st Editor Ronnie. You were amazing.

“The internet will understand” The famous last words of 99% of public figures

Jason,dan,Steph,Amy, we love you for the work you guys do as well as the whole writer and editor team thank you for making these episodes funny❤️❤️

you've literally been such a huge inspiration for me at such a young age I remember seeing you pump to the FNaF 1 theories and I've loved supporting you since. I hope one day that I can do the same stuff as you but as for now. I'm starting off like how you did, just recording on a laptop in my basement. Thank you for everything seeing how much effort this is but you still manage to do it is shocking. I wish you good luck in the future

Gonna miss you SO MUCH matt. Rewatching this after your last theory you made, it makes me sad but proud. ☺️💚❤️💛🩵

“ it took me 9 year to FINALLY get out of the closet “ -MatPat
(I have never gotten this many likes thanks so much)

I know it’s a bit but Matt being an excited dad and gushing about Ollie using the potty is honestly so wholesome and I love it

Woah, at 19:38, that's Luke! From Barats and Bereta! I've been wondering what he's been up to for years! Great to see he's on team theorist! :-)

Never thought only 2 yrs later, the legend would actually retire.

Wait, I swear Ollie was a baby just a few months ago, how's he running around and jumping face first into a bed? Time's flying all over the place

No one:
Austin - "AnD mE, AUSTIN!!"
3 cheers for you mate.

This video is HILARIOUS, and I love it. Totally adore all things, it's professional and personal and it's nice to see how far this channel has come. Totally above the mid-tier influencer level.

Found food theory a few months ago and I LOVE this channel series! LOVED this video, thank you! It helped me tackle a stack of dishes I’ve been too depressed to wash for a few days and I learned a ton of things I’ve always wondered about when enjoying allllll the theory channels and videos. Even teared up a little in the end, so cool! Thanks for what everyone does to produce these episodes, they’re really fun and comforting - and interesting!

“I’m not saying it hits me in a sexual way but Sedge’s accent definitely takes me to places I’ve never been.”
I love the team

"The internet will understand its a joke"
... That one didn't age quite so well

He's used that image of himself for so long it's lost it's definition to me. I see it and my brain can't accept it's a real 3d photo of him in a real position, it just looks fake now.
