MrBeast needs no introduction. The YouTuber has garnered billions of views over the years, as he consistently amazed fans with his content. It led to him being the undisputed king of YouTube. However, there is a fascinating take on the creator, as some fans feel his content in recent times had one disappointing feature.
The MrBeast Reddit forum saw heated discussions after one user felt his newer videos did not feel entertaining.

MrBeast found his fame through the sheer scale of what he would be doing. Holding competitions for seemingly easy tasks, such as staying inside a circle for the longest time and paying the winner, was a new step in YouTube content creation. While the MrBeast brand became even bigger in the last few years, the content lost its entertainment factor. That’s what this Reddit user believes.
To begin with, the Redditor makes their views clear. They find the quality of production and its scale incredible. All one has to do is see any video on the channel. MrBeast puts in the work when it comes to production quality. However, the problem they have is with the content that comes out.
This is not the only person who felt it. Over the last few years, MrBeast’s content has changed. It was not in the way you think. Donaldson did not stop holding these competitions. Fans, similar to this Redditor, felt the content became repetitive. Essentially, people feel the newer MrBeast videos feel like Beast Philanthropy done on the main channel. In a way, this feels relevant because of the amount of giveaways MrBeast does in his videos.
However, Beast Philanthropy is not just about money giveaways. It deals more with helping people. People got used to the content he brought out, content that was a completely revolutionary idea. If you see his old videos, take the ‘Last To Leave the Revolving Glass Door’ challenge and compare it to the ‘Every Country On Earth Fights For $250,000’ video. The crucial difference is it’s just Donaldson giving his subscribers a chance to win instead of his friends.
Is he entertaining?
While some fans do feel the content lost its charm, MrBeast brings two vital things to the table: energy and production quality. The scale of his videos is one almost no creator can reach, with entire companies getting contracts to build sets and do the VFX. At the same time, MrBeast remains passionate about the YouTube channel.
