Maximilian Mus "Oh Yeah Yeah"

About
"Oh Yeah Yeah" is a saying by YouTuber MaximilianMus derived from a music video made in the battle royale game Fortnite. The words were then used in a attack on YouTube comment sections started by MaximilianMus himself.

Origin
On January 7th, 2019, MaximilianMus uploaded the video "MaximilianMus – Oh Yeah Yeah" onto YouTube (Shown below). This is a parody of German band Trio's song Da Da Da.



Spread
Copypasta Video
On January 19th, 2019, MaximilianMus uploaded a video onto his channel titled "It's about time we take over Youtube…" (Shown below), in which he describes a 3 step plan to invade the comment sections of YouTube videos, going like this:

1. Change your profile picture to that of the profile picture of MaximilianMus
2. Comment "Oh yeah yeah" on every video you see
3. Like any comment by any account who has the profile picture of MaximilianMus

After this video was made, people began noticing fans of MaximilianMus doing this plan on many YouTube videos, most noticeably on the Trending tab (Photo example below).

YouTube briefly took down the video on January 20th, 2019, as it violated YouTube's guidelines on spam, scams and deceptive practices, but later got appealed.

KSI Response
On January 21st, 2019, in response to MaximilianMus's campaign, YouTuber KSIOlajidebtHD uploaded a video titled "THIS IS RUINING YOUTUBE" (shown below), in which KSI instructed his fans to do a similar thing to MaximilianMus's campaign, but change the profile picture to a black screen (KSI's profile picture) and comment "STOP", in a similar way to the campaigns against Bob.

Some garbage where people make extremely basic 30 second copies of other games?

Really good video on a super skillful FPS from the early-mid 2000s. I played it back then, although not for long. I still remember some of the music tracks from it that play in the video. K-styling was really insane with the type of pace and rhythm you had to keep. It was like dancing on your keyboard.

These are great, and that six year old is better player than adult "gaming journos", a bit of shame that she's playing such a plebian game, but she's young.

One key point I forgot to mention regarding why creators often have a hard in saying no to companies who want them to show their games in a positive light: Youtube is becoming increasingly more competitive. Beyond simple numbers, click bait, political drama and channels who get to games first dominate the majority of views on Youtube. So naturally, creators need to have relationships with game publishing outlets so that they also can cover the game as soon as possible by receiving access to the game as soon as everyone else. This is a huge problem on Youtube that I deal with every time (as well as a lot of other outspoken Youtubers). So, people do want to establish good and recurring relationships with PR companies and game makers so that they can remain competitive on this platform, *which is often tied to their own livelihood. *

Beware my guys: corruption is everywhere, and it is nowhere. Be on your guards.

Let me save you 10 minutes.

He was invited to a PR event, all expenses paid, wined and dined and after the event the PR contact pressured him to create a more positive video then what he came up with. He declined and they tried to incentivize him by offering him perks for working with them.

No actual bribes. Just typical influencer stuff. The same PR mill that has been going on since the 80s.

The whole "all expenses covered wine and dine in an expensive hotel" thing is indirect bribery.

There are several stories about this. Here's one: https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2010/11/call-of-duty-black-ops-review-event-press-gifts-detailed/

Review events are basically free luxury vacations where you have the option to play the game for a limited amount of time in a controlled environment. The whole thing is extremely sketchy.

Hell, I recall Ubisoft handing out free Nexus 7 tablets at a Watch Dogs press event, which they later apologized for, but come on. The intent was pretty clear.

You may call it normal (sadly it is) but that doesn't really make it any better. And while I generally dislike Downward Thrust's content, it is something that definitely affects A LOT of youtubers nowadays, as companies realized that social media people are even better influencers than game journalists.
