Known for his humorous gaming videos and collaborations with other huge personalities like Markiplier and PewDiePie, Jacksepticeye is often hailed as a unique face in YouTube\u2019s gaming community \u2014 but the gig isn\u2019t always sunshine and roses. While being a big-shot internet star might seem like a cakewalk, the Irishman revealed that \u201cbeing your own boss\u201d in an industry rife with intense competition and confusing guidelines can be enough to make creators want to walk away. McLoughlin opened up about his career in a video uploaded on January 14, where he answered \u201cpersonal\u201d questions from fans, one of which asked if the YouTuber had ever considered \u201cjust quitting\u201d the platform. \u201cYup,\u201d he answered through a laugh. \u201cI\u2019ve had that thought a lot, because when things get a little tricky or things get a little annoying \u2014 for different reasons, whether it\u2019s, \u2018Oh god, I\u2019m sick of doing the same thing every day,\u2019 or, \u2018I\u2019m just tired of YouTube\u2019s algorithms and trying to fight a system that I have no idea how it works.\u2019\u201d Although he clarified that he greatly enjoys his career, the gaming star also admitted that this is the most stressed and anxious he\u2019s ever been in his life, thanks to multiple different factors like pressure from fans, coming up with content, and recording his videos on his own. \u201cDoing YouTube, I absolutely love it,\u201d he explained. \u201cIt\u2019s the best job I\u2019ve ever had, and I wouldn\u2019t trade it for anything else. But it is the most stressed and the most anxious I have ever been in my life, doing anything.\u201d (Topic begins at 11:09 for mobile readers) He likewise claimed that such a career can lead YouTuber\u2019s to place their \u201cself-worth in numbers,\u201d depending on view counts and subscriber counts \u2014 but in spite of the hardships, he plans on making a change to his content rather than quitting. For now, Jacksepticeye hopes to \u201cwork when creativity strikes,\u201d and teased a halt to his daily upload schedule for a more relaxed timeline hoping to create more quality content with better games in place of quantitative uploads.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
