Why I Left Malayalam Gaming ! Reason Behind

Summary of the video’s main points

Purpose of the video / audience context

• The creator says the video is especially for newer viewers.
• He addresses questions from comments about why he stopped posting gaming content (e.g., GTf/GT, MSD RP, Minecraft).
• He frames the video as an open explanation of what changed in his life and career.

Move abroad and early success

• After completing M.Com in his home country, he moved to the UK (England) for the September 2022 intake.
• He explains that Malayalam gaming on YouTube was growing at the time.
• He claims his channel, Malayalam Techies, was early and successful, and he earned good income from YouTube during the COVID-era peak.

Family support shift

• At first, his family was not supportive of him making gaming videos, questioning what he was “showing.”
• Later, after they saw it was beneficial, their support increased.

Employment/creator contract and alleged scam (Blind Esports)

A major reason for his negative experience is an esports-related contract with Blind Esports.

• How the contract worked (as he describes it):

  • Salary/earnings were tied to streaming hours on Loco, not guaranteed pay.
  • He says the deal required roughly 90 hours per month to receive the payment structure.
  • He mentions a figure like 1 lakh for 90 hours, and after TDS, he expected about ₹2.5 lakh/month.

• What allegedly went wrong:

  • He claims payments were withheld for multiple months.
  • This led to repeated follow-ups and excuses.
  • He says he sent a legal notice, but either it wasn’t received or there wasn’t a meaningful response.
  • He adds that other creators later shared similar payment issues, making him realize he wasn’t the only one affected.

Career decline and emotional impact

• He argues this incident was the worst negative event in his gaming career.
• Withheld money affected his obligations and contributed to a shift away from consistent video posting during a low period.

Financial struggle and recovery after moving to the UK

• He explains UK studies cost about £17,500, which he translates as roughly 17–18 lakh rupees.
• Since his finances weren’t sufficient, he took a loan from a cooperative society.
• After coming to the UK, he says he paid off about ₹19 lakh within two years, calling it a major personal achievement.

How life in the UK affects content creation

• He says daily life in the UK leaves less time and energy for content.
• Unlike in his home country, he now has more routine responsibilities (household tasks, work, and life logistics).
• He also mentions transporting his PC parts during relocation.
• He emphasizes that many viewers underestimate how different life becomes after moving countries.

Why he stopped doing specific gaming content

• He says he doesn’t have the same mindset to chase money through games like before.
• He implies some series (especially Minecraft) require long-term consistency and can’t be done casually with only a few videos.
• He mentions time zone differences (about 4.5 hours), which makes coordination and regular posting harder.

Series/community expectations and creator activity

• For recurring series like MSD RP, he believes creators need to stay active.
• He notes that other creators moving to places like Australia and Germany suggests that maintaining activity becomes difficult after relocation.
• He suggests that current inactivity is why certain content has slowed.

Content philosophy: diversify and grow the gaming ecosystem

• He encourages viewers and creators not to focus on just one game.
• He stresses supporting story-mode and varied games to keep the community fresh.

Current focus after leaving gaming video pressure

After settling debts and feeling “free,” he says he posts less frequently and focuses more on learning:

• Camera/gimbal and improving videography
• Editing skills
• A course on DaVinci Resolve color grading

He presents this as the reason his gaming channel activity changed.

Message to the Blind Esports community

• He makes a direct appeal for payment, calling it money he says he earned and is still waiting on.
• He doubts they will respond.

Interaction plans / social presence

• He says they may go live sometimes.
• He encourages viewers to comment on other videos for future topics.
• He mentions being active on Instagram (Malayalam Techies).
