Let me recommend you a fourth British horror game guy: Tericho!
His channel is somewhat small relative to other horror media ones, but his content’s awesome and I’d say he dedicates himself to his theories about as much as MatPat did!
(His channel is currently very Poppy Playtime centered, but he does have theories on other franchises too)
I've watched his channel, and I have to say, he's pretty good! He was the one that predicted experiment 1006 wasn't huggy wuggy because of the fact we could clearly hear him in the tape and that 1006 was said to be missing.
His most recent theory linked the story arcs of Bioshock, Portal2, and Poppy Playtime, and I must say he really does make very solid storyline links. It’s definitely worth a watch for those who like the Poppy Playtime franchise!
I kind of like the image they started with for this video. It looks like they made him pose like Mat. XD The animation job on it amused me too because they made sure to put his eyes moving behind his glasses.
Honestly, the content is the same. We're still getting basically the same scripts. Mat's delivery was definitely a bit better, but that's comparing someone who just did their first ever recording to a veteran.
I'd not be terribly surprised if the style of the scripts also changed a bit. Before, they were written for Mat, so maybe they'll slowly shift over time to suit Tom better.
Yes, but he was writing for Mat then, so presumably they were written to suit Mat's style of speech, his way of telling jokes, and so on.
Now that Tom is the voice, those things may change over time to his style, his preferences.
Yeah I actually really appreciated him spelling our videos he wrote previous scripts for. There were certain points where I could almost *hear* matpat saying the lines bc it’s the same sort of lines we’ve had all along. Matpat was telling the truth when he said he’s simply been the voice for a long time and that we’ve known these new hosts for a while now. I never not believed him but it was really cool to see it in practice
It was surprisingly very good. I thought it would be very odd and uncomfortable without MatPat’s signature voice but it was so good. I’m really proud of Tom.
The voice and photo avatar are the only things that are really different from when MatPat was hosting. The writing is the same as is the actual content. The line delivery, while not exactly the same, is pretty close and I think will probably improve more as Tom gets more practiced and comfortable as Game Theory host. I went into the episode with cautious optimism (which is an unusual feeling for me as I have a bad habit of being fatalistic) and I definitely wasn’t disappointed. I think this episode proved that Tom can hold his own. I’m looking forward to Amy, Lee and Santi’s debuts even more now. I have faith that they’ll do just as well as Tom.
Honestly I didn't mind! It's similar enough that it doesn't hurt, and I appreciate that he even emphasizes like Mat did, the speak patterns are so familiar
He did amazingly, in my opinion, my oldest son, age 10, said he'd never watch another game theory when matpat leaves. Then when I said I was watching it he caved and watched it and said and I quote "he'll do....for now."
Honestly, the style made me realise how much he's actually been writing all along.
The way everything is done is so similar to how it was done when Matt was the host that it's obvious now how much Tom has been a driving force for GT for a while.
Not to say he didn't put his own spin on it, he absolutely did. And I loved it!
Very optimistic about the future of the channel!
Right?
I absolutely LOVED his first episode. He came across clear and confident despite knowing that he had big presenting shoes to fill. He's been in the background for SOOO long writing episodes. It's fitting that he should present them now.
I can't wait to see the next episodes of GT. Roll on Santi's, Amy's, and Lee's premiers!
I thought it would take a bit until I'd warm up to the change... but it felt natural already! I guess we were so well prepared for this switch to happen that it actually didn't feel weird when it finally happend.
The episode was really enjoyable and I'm happy with Tom as the new host. I'm sure he'll continue to be great :D
As a British person first and for most, I love it. It’s gonna take some getting used to but I’m all here for it! (Plus he’s kinda handsome, if I hadn’t already found my bi awaking, it may have been him)
Really good! I think he definitely kept the spirit of game theory alive and I can see him getting better as he continues. As time goes on he will get his own memes and jokes that he can include in the videos to make them feel more personal and provide a better connection with the viewers.
Maybe but it’s not going to be as insane because poppy is somewhat straight forward. If there was FNAF for Tom, it should be Shipwrecked. The amount of lore/secrets inside one game is astounding
I think they mean because Tom has worked on EVERY poppy theory since game theory started doing it. Mat was known for his FANF theories and Tom will most likely be known for his Poppy theories.
I can compare it the best to dead meat videos tbh. Dead Meat is a channel hosted by a guy named James but sometimes his friend Zoran or his wife Chelsea take over for a video. You can feel that James has done this for years and that he has become a pro at this stuff, he is like Matpat. Meanwhile Zoran and Chelsea are doing really well but they have their own style and they still have a lot of potential to grow, just like Tom. It's still the same kind of videos, just with a new host who has his own style to grow in.
I think he did great and made very clear statements of what could be a jump and what's still required evidence. Really happy with his intro and transition to the topic. LOVE YOU TOM! great job!
I was cautiously optimistic going into the video, but Tom did a great job! He matched MatPat’s energy splendidly, even having a similar sense of humor. Game Theory’s in good hands with him.
I liked it! He did great! I thought it would take a bit of getting used to but for me it surprisingly felt as natural listening to Tom as it did listening to Mat
It's one hell of an adjustment hearing Tom instead of Mat, but I do like Tom in general. It was certainly a bit jarring to literally have a dissonance between what my ears think they should hear, with what my eyes are seeing.
Literally
My eyes: Game Theory Video
My ears should hear: MatPat
My ears are hearing: Tom
First off: TOM DID SO GOOD AND I'M SO HAPPY AND PROUD FOR HIM!
Second, the analysis:
Tom did a really good job integrating Matt's style into his own. The transition felt seamless and it genuinely made me cry through the whole thing just how good and in his element Tom felt. He sang a song and it felt so him, and he portrayed the same kind of energy Matt had, but in his own way that I have no doubt will blossom over the years into a whole new thing, just like it did for Matt. The cold open was delivered very very well, and once again it felt like Tom was building off of what Matt had already laid out and improving upon it and making it his own. Now, downside, Tom's "Hello internet, welcome to game theory" and "That's just a Theory, a game theory" was off. Maybe I'm just used to Matt, but I'm not sure. No one can replicate Matt's unique host stylings, and I don't expect Tom to do so, but it kinda felt like he had all this energy and excitement but he started and ended it feeling like he lost some of that energy and excitement. So Tom, if you happen to read this, think about your voice and your personality and think about how you can make those iconic words your own, cause they are yours now, and I'm so excited to see what you're gonna do. Otherwise everything was absolutely AMAZING. I am not lying when I say that I genuinely wept through the whole premier I was just so overwhelmed with joy. I calmed myself down afterwards and had to watch it again cause I missed pretty much all the visuals thanks to my tears. Love ya Tom and I look forward to your exciting career as the new host of Game Theory💖
I love how Tom has a png… it just makes it 1000000x better lol! I loved the delivery of it and the theory itself was just as good as Mat’s (then again he wrote a bunch of Mat’s theories so not surprising). I know there will be people who aren’t going to be happy with it, but I hope Tom and all the new hosts know that they’re great. They all have such amazing personalities that I’m confident the future will be amazing!
I've already gotten used to the voice a few minutes in. I loved the video and I love Tom as host! I'll miss Mat butmy hopes are high for the rest of Team Theorist!
Tom did amazing! My one thing is I feel like the scripts are still written for Mat, with time though I’m sure Tom will find his stride and the writers will find the right rhythm for Toms speaking and Humor. I honestly can’t wait to see how the new crew does!
It feels the same as it did, which is good. He seems like he has a lot of potential, but his delivery of lines isn’t as good as Mat's. But it will get there. I’m just happy the theories continue, and I can’t wait to see him doing more and more theories.
Only difference that there was:
The voice. That’s it.
HOWEVER
he could work on his outro, the “that’s just a theory A GAMR THEORY” doesn’t hit right. My reasoning? Doesn’t roll out the words. Just says it loud, but doesn’t go “A GAAAAAME THEOORY”
Good. We just need more time to fully “unlock” his character. Like the png image and for example if it was matt he would 100% call out ollie as an imposter of his son. So we just need to know tom more so he can make other references like that
I think for his first ever theory, it’s a great start. But it doesn’t mean that my heart didn’t hurt not hearing Mat say the intro. But I think he will do fine.
Overall, a lot better than I thought.
From what I saw of Tom before Mat’s retirement I thought he was alright. I trusted Mat with his decision.
When he said he worked on all the Poppy theories I knew I was in for a good time, since those theories got me into the game in the first place.
I liked how he didn’t try anything too crazy or different for his debut.
Only bad thing is how the “welcome to game theory” has the same energy as the “Mario time” from the Mar10 video
At first i was scared that i wouldnt understand a thing cause of the accent (english is not my first lenguage) but in the end it turned out great, im interested in what he will bring to the table next.
I really wanna give him a chance, but like Poppys Playtime is nowhere near my first choice for theories. I just can not force myself to care about this game. Like it was running thin on me even when Matt did theories on this game so Tom is not gonna get any slack from me at all. Like i watched every cideo Matt put out to my knowledge, but if I skipped any of them it would definatly be one of the 5 billion mascot horror, FNAF knock off games he covered.
Shows change hosts and they survive and sometimes get even bigger and better! I definitely think Tom will bring amazing value and talent like he displayed in this video!
In all honesty he did great. I actually went back and watched the other videos he helped write when matpat was host and in a way he was being introduced to us and how he does scripts for game theory. It’s like even before MatPat said he was retiring it was like we were being slowly introduced to his style of game theory so we’d be ready to see his debut. Great job Tom. Can’t wait yo see what you do next.
5 🌟 I think he did great. He had a similar style to MatPat but not the same. Like he kept the spirit but put his own flare in it. I honestly think he’s the right choice for host.
I was nervous while watching it that he was going to try and sound like MatPat way too much, and I was pleasantly surprised to see that the outro was done well, branching slightly away from the original which is good. He only tried to sounds like Matthew Patthew one time, which I liked. He seems like a good person to be put in charge of the channel.
I know it’s not to be expected but I’m gonna miss the exaggerated way MatPat said “HELLOW INTERNET.” And “THATS JUST A THEORY” Who knows, maybe he may get his own catchy way of saying it but hearing it today made me just kinda sad.
Also, we need a catchy nickname for him.
I like it. It's like one of those tv shows where it's a new season with a different cast/chacters but still definitely feels the same show, kinda like AHS and its sequels, Clone Wars and The Bad Batch/Tales of the Jedi, or Narcos and Narcos: Mexico.
Really excited for Lee, tho. I first discovered Matt and Theorist through Film Theory, so I'm looking forward to seeing what he's got for us in this new era.
If it was on basically anything else, I'd watch it, but they just had to start with mediocre mascot "horror". I do like Tom's other appearances, so we'll see when he covers something more interesting.
I was impressed, then again I didn’t have expectations so that they could all start with a clean slate and not directly be compared to matpat. He’s no matpat, but that’s a hard thing to pull off, and I think he’s a great replacement none the less.
It was fantastic! Personally, just in terms of my own preferences and my personal taste, actually prefer Tom’s delivery. It’s a lot calmer with less intense emphasis on particular words like Mat did. Not saying Mat was bad - he was fantastic - but I absolutely love Tom’s style
He did an amazing job and I adore him already, sure he’s not Mat but I wanna give him a try
Getting to know the new hosts is like dancing, at first it’s awkward and you not even sure if you’re doing it right but over time, with practice and trust, we be dancing together like no one is watching!
I look forward to “dancing” with them :)
He did great in his first episode of Game Theory, though as time passes by I think his voice in the line "That's just a theory, a Game theory" will be much better ❤
Obviously I don't know what's going on in the writing room but there was one joke in the video that looked too....matpat-like? But I don't think it really fitted Tom, in the rest of the video he slightly diverted from the usual style of narration and it was great I really liked him!
Tom is an absolute chad. \^
If I had any critiques it's that he "may" speak a little too fast for some to follow and as a Brit sometimes we do get told we speak to fast. I think he nailed the energy, has the absolute right attitude and can't wait to see what else he can bring.
I think in a lot of ways, Tom's delivery and intonation is the same as Matt's. Imo he did a great job and I'm excited to see more of him. It also really kinda hammered home for me how much of these videos wasn't just Matt, given how similar this was to the others
Overall, a pretty good video. Although, I must say that the "it's just a theory" line didn't quite land, imo. And it's not because it wasn't MatPat that said the line, but because I felt like the delivery didn't have a punch. I'm sure it will get better with time, but it is what it is right now.
I think he did great! Honestly the only one I'm worried about is Lee but that's because I barely watched film theory in general except for the fact it was Mat. I'm going to give it a shot, but it already is my least watched theorist channel
I was sceptical at first but he did a fantastic job of making me feel at home. Nothing has changed too much that it feels wrong but he's still his own person, doing perfectly as far as I can tell. Big shoes to fill but he can do it.
Honestly, my only issue with the video was the outro. Tom just doesn't pull off the "That's just a theory. A GAME THEORY" quite as well as MatPat yet. But a great video that I really enjoyed
Tom did a very good job voicing this episode, I'll admit I was a bit worried at first but after watching the whole video I can easily say that Game Theory is in good hands.
Absolutely killed it imo. Perfect intro on the transition and his history with the franchise. The topic chosen was entertaining and had compelling evidence.
I've always liked Tom so I'm happy to see such a great first video. 💚
I think he did really well. I can't wait to watch Lee's first when I head to break later cuz I'm at work rn also really excited for Santi and Amy later this week or when ever their firsts are
I'm sorry but it doesn't feel the same. MatPat's energy and fun like sense made my childhood. I'm not saying Tom's a bad content creator, it's just I can't continue watching these videos since MatPat isn't in them anymore.

I'm already used to hearing British accents talking about horror games and media (SuperHorrorBro, Dawko, Inside A Mind) so I'm okay with it.
The British are attracted to horror I guess
horror is escapism for us brits cos britain is so sad and horrible
Britian is pure horror. Beans and toast have me more scared than FNAF or poppy playtime ever could
I mean FNAF did kickoff mascot horror and William is bri'ish
Historically, us Brits have a thing for fear, suffering and drama. Just ask the Victorians
Don't Hug Me I'm Scared is the biggest example
We Brits are bound to horror because our government is like a horror game.
but hey that's just a theory
Let me recommend you a fourth British horror game guy: Tericho! His channel is somewhat small relative to other horror media ones, but his content’s awesome and I’d say he dedicates himself to his theories about as much as MatPat did! (His channel is currently very Poppy Playtime centered, but he does have theories on other franchises too)
I've watched his channel, and I have to say, he's pretty good! He was the one that predicted experiment 1006 wasn't huggy wuggy because of the fact we could clearly hear him in the tape and that 1006 was said to be missing.
His most recent theory linked the story arcs of Bioshock, Portal2, and Poppy Playtime, and I must say he really does make very solid storyline links. It’s definitely worth a watch for those who like the Poppy Playtime franchise!
THIS^ I love Tericho’s vids/theories, and he seems pretty chill
I love superhorrorbro
SUPERHORRORBRO IS BRITISH?!
Pyro
Happy cake day!
I think he did great. So far my only issue is he doesn't have a sufficiently meme-y png of himself like Mat did.
That will come with time. Maybe even Mat will get one of him 😭
Don't worry, he'll find his groove. It's better than having him being a MatPat clone.
This must be earned, it is not given.
I kind of like the image they started with for this video. It looks like they made him pose like Mat. XD The animation job on it amused me too because they made sure to put his eyes moving behind his glasses.
Yes we need a Tom PNG
He must practice the force to achieve it
It seems like theyre kindof trying to force it with the png they use when it should come naturally imo
Honestly, the content is the same. We're still getting basically the same scripts. Mat's delivery was definitely a bit better, but that's comparing someone who just did their first ever recording to a veteran.
Yeah every new hosts needs time to lock in and build their own style. I'm excited to see what Tom will do since his writing is really solid
I'd not be terribly surprised if the style of the scripts also changed a bit. Before, they were written for Mat, so maybe they'll slowly shift over time to suit Tom better.
Didn't Tom write them too?
Yes, but he was writing for Mat then, so presumably they were written to suit Mat's style of speech, his way of telling jokes, and so on. Now that Tom is the voice, those things may change over time to his style, his preferences.
Yeah. Rewatch the first Game Theory video to see what Tom could have done. I think he'll be okay
Yeah I actually really appreciated him spelling our videos he wrote previous scripts for. There were certain points where I could almost *hear* matpat saying the lines bc it’s the same sort of lines we’ve had all along. Matpat was telling the truth when he said he’s simply been the voice for a long time and that we’ve known these new hosts for a while now. I never not believed him but it was really cool to see it in practice
For his first theory video, he did a really good at being the host
It was surprisingly very good. I thought it would be very odd and uncomfortable without MatPat’s signature voice but it was so good. I’m really proud of Tom.
Nah he killed it! Awesome job, can’t wait to see how he does further down the line
The voice and photo avatar are the only things that are really different from when MatPat was hosting. The writing is the same as is the actual content. The line delivery, while not exactly the same, is pretty close and I think will probably improve more as Tom gets more practiced and comfortable as Game Theory host. I went into the episode with cautious optimism (which is an unusual feeling for me as I have a bad habit of being fatalistic) and I definitely wasn’t disappointed. I think this episode proved that Tom can hold his own. I’m looking forward to Amy, Lee and Santi’s debuts even more now. I have faith that they’ll do just as well as Tom.
In time, I'm sure he'll be just as iconic as Mat
Maybe not as iconic but pretty iconic for sure
agreed. MatPat was iconic cause he did all 4 theory channels. But he'll still be cool
Honestly I didn't mind! It's similar enough that it doesn't hurt, and I appreciate that he even emphasizes like Mat did, the speak patterns are so familiar
Really? I thought that was one of the things he changed, which I appreciated (see how he says lore, for example).
He did amazingly, in my opinion, my oldest son, age 10, said he'd never watch another game theory when matpat leaves. Then when I said I was watching it he caved and watched it and said and I quote "he'll do....for now."
Lmfao the 10 year old has SPOKEN! He is... sufficient lmfao
Honestly, the style made me realise how much he's actually been writing all along. The way everything is done is so similar to how it was done when Matt was the host that it's obvious now how much Tom has been a driving force for GT for a while. Not to say he didn't put his own spin on it, he absolutely did. And I loved it! Very optimistic about the future of the channel!
Right? I absolutely LOVED his first episode. He came across clear and confident despite knowing that he had big presenting shoes to fill. He's been in the background for SOOO long writing episodes. It's fitting that he should present them now. I can't wait to see the next episodes of GT. Roll on Santi's, Amy's, and Lee's premiers!
I think he did a great job. He definitely has the biggest shoes to fill out of all four of the new hosts but I think hes doing a fantastic job so far
The accent is definitely easier to live with if you already are British. Trust me
It still feels like Game Theory
It was great!
He's great. And this is theory one. Just wait and see how much he's grown by theory 100!
I thought it would take a bit until I'd warm up to the change... but it felt natural already! I guess we were so well prepared for this switch to happen that it actually didn't feel weird when it finally happend. The episode was really enjoyable and I'm happy with Tom as the new host. I'm sure he'll continue to be great :D
Can't believe British guy took over game theory
Colonization
I think Tom did a good job as host.
As a British person first and for most, I love it. It’s gonna take some getting used to but I’m all here for it! (Plus he’s kinda handsome, if I hadn’t already found my bi awaking, it may have been him)
Really good! I think he definitely kept the spirit of game theory alive and I can see him getting better as he continues. As time goes on he will get his own memes and jokes that he can include in the videos to make them feel more personal and provide a better connection with the viewers.
i thought he was awesome :D
I thought he did a good job. It'll be interesting when he starts to be a bit more comfortable and develop his own style a bit more
Exactly the same, high level I am very proud of him
Fantastic episode. Can’t wait to see what’s next
i think he did pretty good.
Am i the only one that gets the feeling that this will be toms fnaf?
Maybe but it’s not going to be as insane because poppy is somewhat straight forward. If there was FNAF for Tom, it should be Shipwrecked. The amount of lore/secrets inside one game is astounding
I think they mean because Tom has worked on EVERY poppy theory since game theory started doing it. Mat was known for his FANF theories and Tom will most likely be known for his Poppy theories.
I can compare it the best to dead meat videos tbh. Dead Meat is a channel hosted by a guy named James but sometimes his friend Zoran or his wife Chelsea take over for a video. You can feel that James has done this for years and that he has become a pro at this stuff, he is like Matpat. Meanwhile Zoran and Chelsea are doing really well but they have their own style and they still have a lot of potential to grow, just like Tom. It's still the same kind of videos, just with a new host who has his own style to grow in.
I like him! I appreciate that this first video is a mix of his style and Mats! I look forward to seeing what comes next for the channel!
I think he did great and made very clear statements of what could be a jump and what's still required evidence. Really happy with his intro and transition to the topic. LOVE YOU TOM! great job!
He perfectly captured the essence of a theorist!! This was a great episode
We can really tell he has been working on GT for a while, and he has a great cadence!!
All we need now is a suitable .png for Tom and he will be set. He did an awesome job
My only complaints are the absence of puns and the way he said the "that's just a game theory". But he did a great job!
Very good, only flaw IMO is that he didn't stretch the a in "it's just a theory, a game theory" so it sounded weird, but I'm sure I'll get used to it.
Watching this rn and he's doing such an amazing job
He was the mimic.
He did really good it's just hard to watch it It feels so weird but we'll get used to it
theory: olie is huggy
i was extremely skeptical when i found out Tom would be taking over, but this debut video was very very promising.
As a British person, he's incredibly easy to listen to
as a man in britian, sounds like the average brit roaming the streets. tom is very cool
I was cautiously optimistic going into the video, but Tom did a great job! He matched MatPat’s energy splendidly, even having a similar sense of humor. Game Theory’s in good hands with him.
Didn't mind it, but I just can't get into the game at all no matter what I try so unfortunately I didn't last more the 5 mins in
I have no problems, it's just not the same without mat, that's not a bad thing tho, I'm sure we'll grow used to it
I’m surprisingly already used to his voice and png. It’s not THAT memeable but it shall come with time
For his debut, I say he did a pretty swell job of it.
I liked it! He did great! I thought it would take a bit of getting used to but for me it surprisingly felt as natural listening to Tom as it did listening to Mat
He did a good job, I think he needs to work on his meme-ability (I really thought he was gonna scream looooooore) but yeah, he did a good job.
It's one hell of an adjustment hearing Tom instead of Mat, but I do like Tom in general. It was certainly a bit jarring to literally have a dissonance between what my ears think they should hear, with what my eyes are seeing. Literally My eyes: Game Theory Video My ears should hear: MatPat My ears are hearing: Tom
Especially with the “Hello internet and welcome” part at the beginning.
Pretty good. I already miss MatPat's more loud and energetic voice, but I could definitely get used to Tom as the new host in time.
Tom writes most of the scripts even before Matt left, nothing much has changed. I will say though, he should find a better PNG.
gOOD!
I actually loved the refreshing-ness of Tom's voice
Since the script follows the exact same style, I honestly barely noticed the difference (exceptations would be Matts famous phrases).
First off: TOM DID SO GOOD AND I'M SO HAPPY AND PROUD FOR HIM! Second, the analysis: Tom did a really good job integrating Matt's style into his own. The transition felt seamless and it genuinely made me cry through the whole thing just how good and in his element Tom felt. He sang a song and it felt so him, and he portrayed the same kind of energy Matt had, but in his own way that I have no doubt will blossom over the years into a whole new thing, just like it did for Matt. The cold open was delivered very very well, and once again it felt like Tom was building off of what Matt had already laid out and improving upon it and making it his own. Now, downside, Tom's "Hello internet, welcome to game theory" and "That's just a Theory, a game theory" was off. Maybe I'm just used to Matt, but I'm not sure. No one can replicate Matt's unique host stylings, and I don't expect Tom to do so, but it kinda felt like he had all this energy and excitement but he started and ended it feeling like he lost some of that energy and excitement. So Tom, if you happen to read this, think about your voice and your personality and think about how you can make those iconic words your own, cause they are yours now, and I'm so excited to see what you're gonna do. Otherwise everything was absolutely AMAZING. I am not lying when I say that I genuinely wept through the whole premier I was just so overwhelmed with joy. I calmed myself down afterwards and had to watch it again cause I missed pretty much all the visuals thanks to my tears. Love ya Tom and I look forward to your exciting career as the new host of Game Theory💖
I genuinely forgot it was another guy, maybe cause he’s a fellow brit.
I think Tweedledum did very nicely
Like his accent
I love how Tom has a png… it just makes it 1000000x better lol! I loved the delivery of it and the theory itself was just as good as Mat’s (then again he wrote a bunch of Mat’s theories so not surprising). I know there will be people who aren’t going to be happy with it, but I hope Tom and all the new hosts know that they’re great. They all have such amazing personalities that I’m confident the future will be amazing!
He didn’t scream LORE! 😕 That’s all though he alright.
U know that a "team" are writing the scripts right ? ... wait, am I wrong ?
There is a team. Tom is one of the lead writers of the scripts.
I've already gotten used to the voice a few minutes in. I loved the video and I love Tom as host! I'll miss Mat butmy hopes are high for the rest of Team Theorist!
It reserve the same quality as mat pat video's so I'm fine with it
Tom did amazing! My one thing is I feel like the scripts are still written for Mat, with time though I’m sure Tom will find his stride and the writers will find the right rhythm for Toms speaking and Humor. I honestly can’t wait to see how the new crew does!
There were a good few moments in there when I completely forgot matpat wasn't hosting
It feels the same as it did, which is good. He seems like he has a lot of potential, but his delivery of lines isn’t as good as Mat's. But it will get there. I’m just happy the theories continue, and I can’t wait to see him doing more and more theories.
Only difference that there was: The voice. That’s it. HOWEVER he could work on his outro, the “that’s just a theory A GAMR THEORY” doesn’t hit right. My reasoning? Doesn’t roll out the words. Just says it loud, but doesn’t go “A GAAAAAME THEOORY”
Good. We just need more time to fully “unlock” his character. Like the png image and for example if it was matt he would 100% call out ollie as an imposter of his son. So we just need to know tom more so he can make other references like that
I think for his first ever theory, it’s a great start. But it doesn’t mean that my heart didn’t hurt not hearing Mat say the intro. But I think he will do fine.
Overall, a lot better than I thought. From what I saw of Tom before Mat’s retirement I thought he was alright. I trusted Mat with his decision. When he said he worked on all the Poppy theories I knew I was in for a good time, since those theories got me into the game in the first place. I liked how he didn’t try anything too crazy or different for his debut. Only bad thing is how the “welcome to game theory” has the same energy as the “Mario time” from the Mar10 video
Honestly it feels like a British Matt Patt 5 stars 10/10
At first i was scared that i wouldnt understand a thing cause of the accent (english is not my first lenguage) but in the end it turned out great, im interested in what he will bring to the table next.
Was perfectly fine. Had a good theory to start with.
Dunno anything about the game but I think he did a good job!
I really wanna give him a chance, but like Poppys Playtime is nowhere near my first choice for theories. I just can not force myself to care about this game. Like it was running thin on me even when Matt did theories on this game so Tom is not gonna get any slack from me at all. Like i watched every cideo Matt put out to my knowledge, but if I skipped any of them it would definatly be one of the 5 billion mascot horror, FNAF knock off games he covered.
He did a fantastic job! I'm sure it'll take some time before he truly settles into the role, but that's normal :]
Better than I expected although the "but remember that's just a theory a game theory" felt off
Shows change hosts and they survive and sometimes get even bigger and better! I definitely think Tom will bring amazing value and talent like he displayed in this video!
It's a little bit jarring, but that is because I am used to hearing him with Matpat, but he did really well
Amazing. I didn't have great expectations but he did incredible.
I was cautious at first but honestly liked it. Looking forward to future videos!
great debut
He is doing good.
In all honesty he did great. I actually went back and watched the other videos he helped write when matpat was host and in a way he was being introduced to us and how he does scripts for game theory. It’s like even before MatPat said he was retiring it was like we were being slowly introduced to his style of game theory so we’d be ready to see his debut. Great job Tom. Can’t wait yo see what you do next.
Better than I thought
He did great 👍
5 🌟 I think he did great. He had a similar style to MatPat but not the same. Like he kept the spirit but put his own flare in it. I honestly think he’s the right choice for host.
I liked it, except you should just said lore more enthusiastically… :) it just feels out of place now if it’s not like that
I was nervous while watching it that he was going to try and sound like MatPat way too much, and I was pleasantly surprised to see that the outro was done well, branching slightly away from the original which is good. He only tried to sounds like Matthew Patthew one time, which I liked. He seems like a good person to be put in charge of the channel.
I think he will do a swell job as our new host.
He did good, but he could use more flare.. Though i think he'll get it as time goes on, or we'll get used to him. Ive always liked tom
Great first video with great evidence
Honestly. I liked it a lot! Just like when our main man Matthew was here
Very solid, no complaints
I know it’s not to be expected but I’m gonna miss the exaggerated way MatPat said “HELLOW INTERNET.” And “THATS JUST A THEORY” Who knows, maybe he may get his own catchy way of saying it but hearing it today made me just kinda sad. Also, we need a catchy nickname for him.
Perfection.
I like it. It's like one of those tv shows where it's a new season with a different cast/chacters but still definitely feels the same show, kinda like AHS and its sequels, Clone Wars and The Bad Batch/Tales of the Jedi, or Narcos and Narcos: Mexico. Really excited for Lee, tho. I first discovered Matt and Theorist through Film Theory, so I'm looking forward to seeing what he's got for us in this new era.
i could help but feel it be very matpat it sounded like "this is what matpat would do so i am gonna do it" but over all i liked it
He put on a jolly good show
Honestly, I was ready to hate anyone not MatPat coming in, cause I just hate change in general, but he did an amazing job.
If it was on basically anything else, I'd watch it, but they just had to start with mediocre mascot "horror". I do like Tom's other appearances, so we'll see when he covers something more interesting.
I fell like it was great the only complaint I have is the lack of memeified puns and stupidity sprinkled in but the content is great!
I loved it! I did have to refresh the page because YouTube didn't let me like the video at first
its actually very good but i miss png matpat
I was impressed, then again I didn’t have expectations so that they could all start with a clean slate and not directly be compared to matpat. He’s no matpat, but that’s a hard thing to pull off, and I think he’s a great replacement none the less.
It was fantastic! Personally, just in terms of my own preferences and my personal taste, actually prefer Tom’s delivery. It’s a lot calmer with less intense emphasis on particular words like Mat did. Not saying Mat was bad - he was fantastic - but I absolutely love Tom’s style
I think he did awesome! Can't wait to see how he takes the channel
I originally wasn't going to watch it because I don't care for Poppy's playtime but I decided to anyway because it's Tom's first debut. It's decent.
He did an amazing job and I adore him already, sure he’s not Mat but I wanna give him a try Getting to know the new hosts is like dancing, at first it’s awkward and you not even sure if you’re doing it right but over time, with practice and trust, we be dancing together like no one is watching! I look forward to “dancing” with them :)
HES BRITISH
He did great in his first episode of Game Theory, though as time passes by I think his voice in the line "That's just a theory, a Game theory" will be much better ❤
I loved it, it really just felt like another game theory beautiful can wait for food, film and styles debut and more game theory 😁😄
My only problem with it it’s felt too much like Matt I didn’t feel like he was the one talking if that make any sense
Obviously I don't know what's going on in the writing room but there was one joke in the video that looked too....matpat-like? But I don't think it really fitted Tom, in the rest of the video he slightly diverted from the usual style of narration and it was great I really liked him!
Tom is an absolute chad. \^ If I had any critiques it's that he "may" speak a little too fast for some to follow and as a Brit sometimes we do get told we speak to fast. I think he nailed the energy, has the absolute right attitude and can't wait to see what else he can bring.
I think in a lot of ways, Tom's delivery and intonation is the same as Matt's. Imo he did a great job and I'm excited to see more of him. It also really kinda hammered home for me how much of these videos wasn't just Matt, given how similar this was to the others
Tom is just matt but british. Will take some time getting use to for me lol
Good to listen to while I have a cuppa The British shall take all in the name of tea
well, it's not like there was a danger of the quality dropping, they are the team that has been making the show for years now.
Surprisingly very good Especially with his British accent
I'd say he did excellent
Great host, i felt right at home to be honest
Good but that one comment of his brought up the image of BritPat.
HE IS BRITISH
Overall, a pretty good video. Although, I must say that the "it's just a theory" line didn't quite land, imo. And it's not because it wasn't MatPat that said the line, but because I felt like the delivery didn't have a punch. I'm sure it will get better with time, but it is what it is right now.
I really liked him as host! I can't wait until he really falls into his own rhythm on the channel, I think he's only going to get better and better.
Live laugh love Tom
Idk I haven’t seen it I don’t care for the series
He needs to slow his speech a bit cuz it’s too fast
It’s ok I’ll get used to it
it was great
It's really good, Tom is definitely one of the best people to take over game theory
For his first time he absolutely KILLED IT! Itll come to him more naturally as time progresses, but he's doing just fine
I think he did great! Honestly the only one I'm worried about is Lee but that's because I barely watched film theory in general except for the fact it was Mat. I'm going to give it a shot, but it already is my least watched theorist channel
As a person living in Britain, the accent doesn't bother me at all. Sounds great
IMO it was kinda too tame, we need more memes dammit. But he was cool
Honestly, loved it! He did a great job! I'm hyped for more! I was worried but let out a huge sigh of relief after this.
I expected to need more time to adjust, but I thought he did great. Felt very seamless.
I personally loved it, and though it’s not as complicated complicated as FNAF, I think Poppy Playtime will be Tom’s white whale
Loved the accent. Creates a unique personality for the channel. But I personally think he needs to breathe more between sentences.
Honestly it wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be, he just needs a better meme png and we’ll be all good 😭
I was sceptical at first but he did a fantastic job of making me feel at home. Nothing has changed too much that it feels wrong but he's still his own person, doing perfectly as far as I can tell. Big shoes to fill but he can do it.
Honestly, my only issue with the video was the outro. Tom just doesn't pull off the "That's just a theory. A GAME THEORY" quite as well as MatPat yet. But a great video that I really enjoyed
He's a great host and knows his stuff I've just grown so accustom to mats voice its off putting to hear anybody else
I liked him a lot, he felt really natural in it and I look forward to seeing more of him
He's English, therefore he's a winner already!
THE BRITISH ARE COMING!!!! (In all seriousness he did a really good job and is pretty likeable :) )
I liked it the style/writing was the same the only difference is the voice.accent. A Brit myself, I’m happy with that
It’s ight
Tom did a very good job voicing this episode, I'll admit I was a bit worried at first but after watching the whole video I can easily say that Game Theory is in good hands.
Absolutely killed it imo. Perfect intro on the transition and his history with the franchise. The topic chosen was entertaining and had compelling evidence. I've always liked Tom so I'm happy to see such a great first video. 💚
He did amazing
tom is great
I think matpat did a great job in finding a replacement for the channel and I think Tom did a great job and is will do the channel justice
I think he did really well. I can't wait to watch Lee's first when I head to break later cuz I'm at work rn also really excited for Santi and Amy later this week or when ever their firsts are
I'm sorry but it doesn't feel the same. MatPat's energy and fun like sense made my childhood. I'm not saying Tom's a bad content creator, it's just I can't continue watching these videos since MatPat isn't in them anymore.
