This, plus she has money and doesn't have to worry about food. She's able to make and eat whatever she pleases with high-quality ingredients and not have to worry about paying the bills, and she can take all afternoon to make her everything-free meals. Very few people have that luxury.
I don’t think this is a fair statement
some women / people just don’t want to go through childbirth for a multitude of reasons. It doesn’t always necessarily mean “I don’t wanna go through the pain”, but that’s a fair statement and nothing wrong with that.
He took a break to go see his family, I think, and given there wasn't much new playable content March/April/May that was probably a smart time to do so. A lot of Sims Youtubers seemed to do so around then, after the very tiring and unprofitable fiasco that was the My Wedding Stories pack.
I think it also had something do with the lockdowns in Australia. Melbourne [where Deli used to live] was the most locked down city. Deli then escaped to Sydney to stay with James and was essentially blocked from coming back until they were allowed by the government. If I had enough disposable income to have two places, I would. If the place where I was staying was locked down, I'd GTFO and go somewhere else. I also think the Sydney place is like a vacation place to them, that just so happens to be James's old apartment. Who knows, James might own the place and doesn't want to get rid of it. But yes, he is a smart man, keeping his old place incase something happens.So he can ESCAPE. Smart man
Oh, yeah, I don't doubt that's part of it. I just like being a shady witch and sayings it's all to escape Deli
We just all know he can do betterOh, yeah, I don't doubt that's part of it. I just like being a shady witch and sayings it's all to escape Deli
And, to be fair, if he didn't love her he'd leave. It may not make sense to any of us but... If he's happy, I guess
Still gonna joke about it all though bc I'm salty
but if he is happy than so be it hahah.
They’ll definitely start hammering Patreon, there they’ll be able to continue doing the bare minimum but get paid for it (Steph0sims being the best example).Uh oh, it's going to get rocky in the Youtube sphere. Just got word from a 2 million subscriber channel [Meet Kevin] that Youtube is expecting ad revenue to crater and advertisers to buy less ads. How do you think this is going to affect the big simmers? I'm expecting more to flock to Twitch and beg people for money, probably more Patreons will be created and shadier sponsorships. I'm also expecting some simmers to stop making content because it won't be worth their time. Looks like the good times are quickly running out.

People have to have money to give it to you on stream and on Patreon. Not trying to pull current world events into this but Twitch is trying to change their split with big creators from 70% to 50%. Youtube is telling their big creators to expect less ads. If companies with huge budgets are pulling back, how do you think regular people are going to react? If we go in to a tumultuous time, the first thing to be cut is luxuries and throwing bits and subs at streamers is definitely a luxury. Good luck to the creators who just bought overpriced houses. Lots of people got screwed in 2008 and this time doesn't look any different. We'll have to wait and see but it doesn't look good for the "beggars."
Nope. Good times will still be had, bc people will have to watch the small simmers who dont just throw out garbage for money (bc they cant monetize or they dont make bank) and we'll FINALLY get reccomendations for peoole other than the same 5 craps channels we have now.Uh oh, it's going to get rocky in the Youtube sphere.

The vibe I get from SatchonSims is that he is trying to play every single field on Youtube. He talked about EA ruining the game, then talks about how good some packs are, then talks about game changer kickback codes, then he's doing kooky challenges, then he's covering IMUV, Disney's Dreamlight Valley and Roblox. PICK A FREAKING LANE! I guess the best word to sum it all up is try-hard.
Most every creator has some sort of viewer drop off. I would say from episode 1 to episode 2, that is a somewhat normal drop off. Lots of people will come to watch the first episode and decide if they want to continue watching. Episode 3 to 4 is not. Is that when people began to notice she was cutting out important stuff? Overall, a 60% reduction in views is not great. Considering Deli's past viewership, unless she clickbaits the heck out of her videos, she'll bottom out at around 30-40k views. I'm interested to see how that 1 hour and 22 minute video performs long term. I imagine that long of a video is going to shave some more people off the series. She might even dip into the 20k range.
I think it depends. She capitalizes on new stuff, because she knows it is coming ahead of time. Rags to Wellness came out when the Spa Day pack refresh came out. Also, considering Rags to Riches is James's thing, she probably hijacked some viewers from him. A whole bunch of people came to see what the refresh was about, saw what the refresh was about in episode 1 and then bounced. I don't know how you'd create a whole series around the Spa Day refresh but she chose to do that. I think it was a poor decision but what do I know? I think her viewer decline is a combination of things. Poorly thought out decisions, uninteresting content, her history of dropping let's plays, her decision to start her videos with an ad for her merch, lack of editing etc. Her biggest problem is uninteresting content. People will put up with a lot IF you give them something interesting to watch.
