    Max has gotten so many people into the genre. I really think he has accomplished his goal there

    Max is the primary reason I started in fighting games. I had been curious and his content around KI made me want to try it. Then I connected with people who play it. And then I tried other FGs until my interest sustained itself. &nbsp;Thanks Max! And thanks Brian! Now you’re a part of how I continue to grow and find entertainment in FGs and it’s much appreciated.

    What I love so much about Max&apos;s stuff is that he&apos;s still the same guy he was when he started. He&apos;s got all these subscribers and all these views and probably enough money for himself and his family to be set for life, but he doesn&apos;t act like that. He&apos;s just a down to earth guy who still has the same mission statement as always: get as many people into fighting games as possible. You never see him begging for more subs, &nbsp;he never brags about what all he&apos;s accomplished, he&apos;s just there, doing the things he loves, whether there&apos;s an audience or not. It&apos;s so refreshing.

    Whenever I want to escape from real life I tune into Max... hes like comfort food, or visiting an old friend getting high and talking a bunch of shit. One of those early parasocial relationship you create from a young age 😅 &nbsp;always wish Max and his family the best in life❣️

    Max is one of the best and most positive creators in this space. Plus he&apos;s a fellow KI fanatic.
