Idk how many RoosterTeeth fans are on Tumblr, but watching the final livestream rn I'm getting so emotional. This company is what got me into video games, got me interested in the entertainment business, was the catalyst for my brother and I connecting as teens, helped me make friends in college, and made me into (I would like to think) a compassionate adult. Most importantly, I can now spell achievement correctly... most of the time.
I know they've had their rough patches, but there are so many wonderful creative people at RT who I wish the best in their future projects <3
Watching the final stream and I wanted to write out a personal thanks to EVERYONE at Rooster Teeth as i sit here in tears, gently clutching my RvB book and Sarge minifig, because without RT I'm not sure how I'd of turned out...
I first found out about Rooster Teeth when I stumbled upon Red vs Blue s9's trailer in 2014. I sat down one day and binged all the content in its entirety and was instantly hooked. Life was hard, four years previous I'd lost my mum to cancer, I struggled even then with it and I'd been on a mental decline since, I was barely happy, didn't leave my house, and life was full of therapy and meds. But Red vs Blue made me laugh, and through it I discovered Achievement Hunter, the RT Podcast, RWBY, and I'm sure a bunch of stuff I haven't watched in a long time. Rooster Teeth helped me find happiness in a time I was struggling and helped me onto the path to getting better.
Since then I've gotten better, and discovered much about myself. And this (in the least corporate way) family of people have impacted me so much, I took a character's name as one of my own (Dexter), I still have merch in my room and I continue to put on the Podcasts or Let's Plays while I draw. Hearing the news of Rooster Teeth shutting down hit like a gut punch,I knew they were going to crumple soon, but being taken out by Warner Bros feels like a kick in the teeth. RvB Restoration's on the horizon and final live stream was today and my tears are bittersweet sadness. It was a bucket list item to go to RTX one day, and while that won't happen seeing all the stories of other peoples trips makes me so incredibly happy. EVERYONE at this company helped myself and so many other people's lives.
Thank you Rooster Teeth, from the bottom of my heart, thank you so much for every memory and every laugh. I would say goodbye, but I won't, because as long as I don't... you just aren't here right now. ❤️💙
