Twitch streamer Charlie "MoistCr1TiKaL" took to his YouTube to discuss the recent controversies involving Kick and Twitch streamer Yousef "Fousey." Yesterday (August 23), the streamer reported a false hostage situation, which led to the police arriving at his hotel in Miami. The incident rapidly escalated, with the streamer exhibiting signs of a manic episode, ultimately resulting in his arrest.

Charlie also highlighted that this incident wasn't the sole instance where Fousey displayed his worsening mental health, citing his past controversies. Reacting to Fousey's arrest, Charlie said:

"I truly believe that (the arrest) was actually for the best. I think if this stream continued, he would've ended up hurting himself or somebody."

"Could've ended very poorly" - MoistCr1TiKaL lambasts Fousey for his manic episode

MoistCr1TiKaL was critical of Fousey's latest stunts, which led to his arrest during his latest livestream on Kick. Speaking about the situation, the former said this:

"He was in a very intense, very manic state, that could've ended very poorly. I watched it all happen live in real time, and there was nothing entertaining about it. People were losing their mind about 'how entertaining it was,' 'W stream,' 'This sh*t is amazing,' because there's such a disconnect from the internet."

He added:

"What you were watching is a very real person. Fouseytube is a real human being having an actual mental health breakdown. A complete collapse of mental health and people are just celebrating it and can't wait for him to come back."

Additionally, MoistCr1TiKaL highlighted that Fousey had admitted to neglecting his medication regimen and deliberately avoiding sleep. According to the streamer, this revelation is a distressing aspect of the situation.

Charlie went on to criticize Fousey's fan base for inadvertently encouraging his behavior and fellow streamers, particularly those on Kick, for their role in pushing him despite his deteriorating mental state.

Although titles like FIFA 08 and GTA San Andreas acted as the catalyst for his love of video games, the exponential growth of the streaming community also propelled his interest in the genre. He also has a prior work experience of 2 years.

Shreyan considers factual and accurate content to be the most important as a creator and a reader. He ensures this by double checking every piece of information in his articles and sourcing it from streamers directly rather than depend on third parties. His works have caught the attention of the heavyweights, with the PR team of Sidemen (a YouTube group he’s been following since his teenage days) and Chess.com reaching out to him for sending exclusive press releases.

Shreyan would love to drop into the virtual world of FIFA/EA FC and explore it further but, he would recommend playing Red Dead Redemption 2 to gaming skeptics for its top-tier gameplay, story and characters. During his downtime, he enjoys balancing his interests in reading, watching films and sports, and of course, playing video games.
