Popular Youtube/Twitch streamer and reactor Etika, who has recently become more known for a string of psychotic episodes, has been missing for several days.

His last video was one expressing regret for his actions over the last few months, reflecting on his conduct, with thoughts eventually turning to suicide

His personal effects were recovered near the Manhattan bridge, and earlier today a body was recovered

Hopefully he gets to play as Smash Ultimate's Banjo Kazooie in heaven.

RIP.

What was his thing? He was a Youtuber, apparently, but I can't find his channel. Only dozens of videos about his disappearance and death.

I cant find his channel either (it got deleted a while ago), but fans still uploaded videos of his reactions to the reveal of new Smash Bros character reveals which he was most known for.

This was his most famous video that even caught the attention of Masahiro Sakurai.

Is that why he offed himself? A Youtuber without a Youtube channel seems... troublesome.

I have no idea.

He did upload his videos somewhere else, which fans then re-uploaded to Youtube.

there is a whole other social media world out there that might as well be it's own planet. this kid no one heard of is trending on twitter now.

mental illness is never a good thing, though. seems like he had problems for a while.

Very sad story. I hope he enjoyed his life as much as possible.

He was a streamer. His youtube channel got deleted awhile back at almost a million subscribers but he still streamed on other platforms. He wasn't somebody "no one has ever heard of", and had an extremely dedicated fanbase.

Huh... am I the only one who has NEVER heard of him until this thread? I really don't pay attention to youtubers asides from Cinemassacre/AVGN.

That being said, RIP.

He had mental issues and wasn't in a sane state of mind. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure Catholic doctrine recognizes special circumstances like that which lessen moral culpability.

It's a complicated issue, for sure. I'm not saying he's going straight to Hell, either. He might get like, a second chance at life.

He had a history of mental issues and had teased killing himself multiple times on Twitter only to come back and go JUST KIDDING.

I never heard of him until people started freaking out a few months ago after a he disappeared for a few days then told everyone he was just pulling everyones leg.
