Hello niche community

[sfosky]

Technolarp is fascinating to me. And more then with him I'm fascinated with how hungry for techno content was the community.

As I am writing this Technolarp is having a stream to celebrate 100k subs, while for compression Larpiplier the men who started the whole concept of larpTubers is sitting at 130k.

Probably an important part of why Technolarp is this popular is because he nails his Techno impression. His voice is almost perfect, and the humor can get really close. The only part he lacks are the pvp /game skills witch is a minore problem even though he can't really use "Technolarp never dies".

But a large part of this popularity comes from how much Techno was missed. Even 3 years after his death I keept seeing new fanarts, people searching all if his old vids and finding "new" clips. When Dream was accused of cheating for the n-th time, one of the most popular videos on that subject was stating that he was using aim assist in the 100k duel.

I remember few months after techno died I tried to find someone "like" Technoblade. He was my favorite YouTuber, and even though his upload schedule was never really accurate, and it disappeared entirely for his finale few months it still felt weird without him. I tried few different YouTubers, I tried Philza since he was often on Techno's streams and was funny there, I tried Redoons since people on r/Technoblade said he's similar, I believed for a while that the guy that dozed a scammer and had a similar voice would be a good substitute(sorry forgot his name). But non of them where Technoblade.

I have been searching for Technoblade in people who weren't him, and wouldn't be him. Even now sometimes when I find a new YouTuber I think to myself "this feels kind of like techno" I give that YouTuber more time to convince me to stay because I just don't want to give up that sense of familiarity.

I miss Technoblade, just like a lot of other people who are willing to subscribe and make fanart of a person simply pretending to be him.,and if I where to guess probably Technolarp misses him too.

Technolarp is not Technoblade, and never will be. But he does fulfill that familiarity so many of us miss. And that I think is enough, at least for now.

Thank you Technolarp for doing your best at capturing what made Technoblade so great.

And thank you Technoblade for all the amazing memories that still stay with us.

the "larptube" trend of people just copying other youtubers means we are worrying close to someone shipping these alternate versions of markiplier and jacksepticeye and causing the entire internet to collapse in on itself

[acephoric]

you guys know the larptube trend? People are making like larp versions of popular creators from 2016 and recreating the vibe, like larpiplier, mikelarpticeye, dailydoseoflarp, larpiuenz0, etc

I had a dream where someone made “larphoric” and was like pretending to be me and stuff and it was really weird
