PewDiePie has turned off the comments on his videos, and hopeful 10 year old Minecraft lets players have their dreams crushed, Gadgets and Khajiits reports. This is somehow newsworthy.

It's important in life to maintain a broad palette when it comes to culture and the arts. Hideo Kojima agrees, as he continues to use video games like Death Stranding to introduce people to music and other elements they might not otherwise discover.

Mojang has partnered with Merlin Entertainments to build the world's first Minecraft theme park in the UK.

A three-episode live-action adaptation of the first two Yakuza video games will debut Tuesday, March 17 exclusively IGN. Each episode is about an hour long and will stream on IGN.com and IGN’s YouTube channel.
I can't believe this guy became so famous, he's like the Justin Bieber of gaming. But is deactivating comments really newsworthy?
I hate PewDiePie. PROFIST!!!
How he is the most subbed person on YouTube is beyond me..
I dont have to care much , i just dont watch him beyond the initial curiosity of "WTF he was" a year ago .
Sure he'll pop up as a surprise in a few videos , to my dissmay .. but remains fairly avoidable . More so than his annoying mainstream music counterparts , wich you wont avoid in car radios blasts or in shops and malls .
He's turning off the comments because he didn't communicate and develop his fanbase when he had the chance. When you're starting out, the first thing you want to do after posting a video is reply to the comments. Thank those who praise you, laugh off those who troll you, and talk to those who give you legit criticism. That "ignore the comments" stuff is garbage; you WANT to develop the comment section properly. That way comment sections don't start becoming angry cesspools.
But he's so popular now that there are too many comments and fans to approach. There's no way he can talk to all of them, so he has to settle with whatever he has, which is leading him to just turn off the comments entirely.
I think that's pretty dumb, censoring the good just to quell the bad, especially considering that this entire thing could've been avoided had he just developed his fanbase more directly.
