I was actually going to make this thread before the event.

I have a few channels that have stopped producing content, but I still thoroughly enjoy.

1- Hot Pepper Gaming

About the only way I can watch a video with EgoRaptor. The guests eat a hot pepper and review a game, and they don't get the milk until they finish the review. Wonderful schadenfreude. I like it when they get all cranky and emotional.

2- Scot Scran

This might be a parody of cooking shows.
 
I used to watch SpaceHamster a ton, he was a mostly gaming focused channel that did a lot of videos about fan games, rom hacks, and bootlegs, including a lot of top 10 videos about other things related to games. Apparently he stopped making content to focus on streaming and he isn't interested in coming back to YouTube, but I really liked his videos a lot and I still go back to them every once in a while. I haven't heard a ton about him recently because I don't really watch twitch streamers that much cause I usually find most live streams to be kinda boring most of the time. I just really want him to come back to YouTube at some point even if I know it's unlikely.
 
I didn't have inactive YouTube channels that I like, I just like random interesting videos and I don't follow anyone in YouTube. Because when you get overly attached to a YouTube channel, it's hard to let go and it'll cause the creator to lose passion. It's a lose-lose situation when you want to move on when the audience wants you to do the same song and dance resulting in stagnation. YouTubers, just like celebrities come and go. Just like when real people come and go.

What only matters is legacy or breaking the mold when it comes to content creation.
 
I liked John Wolfe for his indie horror games. His channel is still 'active' but it effectively died to me when he stopped the shorter horror videos.

I understand why and I support his decision. He had a child and it's not so easy to edit together videos anymore.

I watch for both specific content and the creator personality. I wish I could say I was somebody who follows a YouTuber no matter what they do, but often that's not the case for me.

He also has a channel where he plays games with Peanut Butter Gamer called PB and Jeff.
 
Acapellascience's songs carried me through my studies so I hold this channel dear to my heart.
 
MrGSTAR321. He played a lot of cool video games, like Mortal Kombat and House of the Dead. But he also played some indie games, like Banned Memories: Yamanashi and Puppet Combo games. I miss his humor and commentary.

I also miss Sorrow TV. He had a lot of funny Reddit videos.

I watched a game reviewer as a kid that went by BarlogtheMaster. I loved his enthusiasm for Nintendo and his videos (even his bad ones) had a lot of love put in them. His channel kept going back and forth between uploads for years until he made a finale livestream and quit making content altogether. From what I heard he got too busy with his full time job and relationship and decided it was better to quit instead. Sadly even his Twitter is inactive now.

There was another one I watched who went by The Tree's Apprentice. She did video game top tens. The jokes in them were really bad, but I found the videos entertaining and they introduced me to a lot of game series. She kept going back and forth between keeping her old videos up and deleting them. I believe the entire channel is gone now.
 
FilthyFrank yoooooo. (His content is questionable, as a warning). I fully understand why he quit but it's still a sad end of a legacy. He left when the internet needed him most haha. I'm very happy (and surprised!) that he rebranded himself so successfully.
