User blog comment:Western Gen/Speculations for Season 14/@comment-1886172-20160515200602/@comment-1886172-20160515214130

Oh for sure I'll stick around for 14, to be honest I have no intention of ever quiting the series I still hold it dearly. And perhaps it is burnout, but because I still love the series and want to keep watching it, I don't think that's what it is. I just feel the show moved away from it's core when it started Season 9, especially once it got to Chorus. And I won't lie and pretend like it was a masterpiece before, like I said production wise it is a better show, and it's even written far better. It just doesn't hold a candle to the first eight seasons for me. Maybe it is the growing cast, or the fact that character development seems to be thrown away for a quick gag that bothers me.

As for the burnout of RoosterTeeth it's just that they no longer make content that I like. I used to love all of their short lived machinimas, my favorite outside of RvB being either Strangerhood or that PANICS series they had. Their LetsPlays also used to be good, though I find them boring now, around the same time Ray got bored of doing them, I got bored of watching them. RWBY is something that I'm glad is a thing, if only because I know what it meant to the late Monty, but I definitely don't think it's that good. Both the story and it's animation, while unique and sometimes nice to look at, are quite lackluster. The animated adventures are alright I guess, I watch them occasionally and the podcast stopped suiting me once it changed the name years ago. Immersion would still be entertaining to watch if they had the money to produce more of them though.

I can understand why people still love RoosterTeeth, but to me they feel like a bunch of 40 somethings who are still trying to stay in touch, and it's a little cringeworthy to me. It's the same thing as music artists I used to love who are just getting too old, but want to continue what they do.
