@Pomni_SMG4Bro *MY* channel is more impressive than yours and no one even knows who I am… Learn to be humble 🤣
I don't see anything wrong with reviews releasing a while after the release date, it can usually give whoever is reviewing more time to analyse after their first impressions. It's cool, Sam!

@Pomni_SMG4we all know that's a lie that only you could possibly believe in and even then I kinda doubt you do, btw your "content" Just looks like a huge pile of your biggest mistakes in life(aside from being born)and your creepy fantasies
DONT FUCKIN SCARE ME LIKE THAT!! Seeing an im sorry title form a person I follow is new greatest fear
Apology accepted. I know you’ll do great next year. Happy new year Sam.
No worries bro, you work hard to get to this channel where it is. Can’t wait to see your excitement when Sonic Movie 3 trailer drops!!

I really hope they don't drop the ball with it!
I love this channel mostly because i see a person and not a "youtuber". I watch your videos because i find what you have to say very intersting, not because you uploaded first. KZreads "upload every day" philosophy is very toxic , personal life and mental health are more important.
When I saw this video on my recommendation, I got scared because I thought you did something bad 🙃 I understand your concern about not uploading so much but the content you created this year was really good and the quality was top notch👌 But now that you're committed to doing better and improving , I'm excited to see what you cook up next year 🔥👨🍳
Wanting to improve your content and your schedule is perfectly fine, but don’t call yourself a bad person because of it. Just because life got in the way of creating content doesn’t mean you’re a bad guy. You don’t owe anybody anything. Hope you feel better soon!
Being a content creator is not always easy and certain things take time to make. I’m glad that you wanna do better not only for yourself as a person but, better fit the channel too. Just keep doing what you do best and have fun. We love you man 💕💕✨
Honestly, thank you for giving us content despite having to work on official stuff and college.
Don't worry Sam, we understand life becomes busy at times and you have priorities more important than KZread. But with that said, I'm glad you're making a come back in 2024! I genuinely can't wait for your videos. Also if you want to hire a video editor for KZread Shorts, I wouldn't mind joining. I create animated Shorts weekly and I have a lot of experience video editing 😄
Your Sonic Streams is what drew me to this channel, think you are doing a good job man. But I also want you to know your not alone in the mental health and time management department, I used to suffer the exact same thing. In the past at my job, one thing falls apart I feel like I’m at fault and also feel like I am the cause of everything that went wrong. Its an insecurity I had to fix because it was affecting all of my relationships not just with girls, but with everyone around me family included. It is not an easy task to do but the first step in helping your mental health is knowing your not alone. Overall, I think your doing great your Sonic gameplay and reviews from what I have seen are on point but thats just me. If you feel fixing your mistakes this year will help you with achieving a better year in your eyes next year then go for it, you know whats best.
As an apology, I demand a free riders stream
Well, I played Sonic Superstars a month late, and I watched your review TWICE. It echoes exactly how I feel about the game, so I liked the video! I was at the symphony in Atlanta on the 29th, and everyone laughed and clapped for the footage!
I am so disappointed of you, Sam. How could you do this? Unacceptable.

@Pomni_SMG4 we do not care.
There's nothing to apologize for, Sam. You always do your best every time, and life can get complicated at times. It's all good. 😊
You’re not the only one Sam, I was also late on making streams, like the moment you mentioned that you made streams 2 or more months after a Sonic game comes out… It’s not really a mistake, but sometimes, our schedule doesn’t allow us to stream at the exact or even short days after a hype of a game. Everytime I really wanted in my case to stream on a game that just came out, but my schedule didn’t allow me to do that because I was too busy. But anyways, you’re still one of my most favorite Sonic KZreadrs ever, and I really hope someday, you can make it better. Mine too. For now, I wish you a happy new year, and hope that 2024 will be another amazing year 💙
Don’t worry Sam, you shouldn’t force yourself to make more content when you already work hard (you have Procrastnates in your name after all) I also do my videos by myself. And man, you’ve really been an important and busy man these years with how many collabs you’ve done with SEGA, I’m jealous lol. Keep up the good work! 💪Can’t wait for the future 👀
Mane. You inspired me into getting into KZread in the first place. Every moment I come to your shorts, videos, streams I stay learning something new and stay having a good time. Bump the “I upload late”. Real Fans Gon Stick Till The End❤️🔥
As someone who keeps following you since 2021, i dare to say you were quite active for me during this year. In fact, i don´t think you had to apologize about it, but rather we should be thankful to you for being honest with the situation. Sure, you can do the math and realize you didn´t make much more content as you wanted, but im sure the reason is because you were concerned about the quality, like you mentioned from the beginning, and its a slow process on itself. It takes time. I currently have the same dilema and i was shocked to hear the same from you. Just as i said before on Discord during the party. Don´t feel you fell too far behind, you´re not irrelevant. You built an awesome channel which keeps bringing up joy to me and even more people each day. A lot of stuff has been going on these couple of years and has keeping us both bussy. Take the time you need to reorganice your scheduel, it would make your life much easier to reach the goals you want to accomplish. Can´t wait to see the new stuff the following year. Keep it up, you´re going through the best road. Send you hugs!

Thank you so much, Erwin! Not just for the kind words, but your constant support for the past few years. You're amazing! :)
No matter what you do Sam. We will be here to enjoy all you do. I don’t know if you remember but I was that one always asking for a “best of x year video” I should say sorry if I make you feel pressured over it in the past. Keep doing what you do man, managing time is something I struggle with too, so let’s Procrastinate with responsibility this 2024 ✌️
My 2023 goal is to start a channel on things I like (sonic being one of them), just to start one video! And you’ve inspired me to do it Sam! It’s great to see that you acknowledge where you can improve, but I think you’ve had another great year regardless
Sad to hear you struggled a bit in 2023 but happy you were able to recover from it and plan to excel going into 2024. Really enjoyed your Sonic Superstars review, your playthrough of Sonic Forces Overclocked, and highlights and review of the third update for Sonic Frontiers. Can't wait to see what you have in store for 2024. All the best.
Sam's Time Management Station! I can see it happening soon. No matter what Sam, you're alright by me. I saw this channel when you started playing Sonic Mania. This is a great channel. Btw, that was a funny thumbnail 😅
Went to the Atlanta symphony the other night and your edits pulled everything together!GREAT JOB DUDE!!
You've been doing great man! No need to talk yourself down when you're doing everything on your own! I love the videos dude, and I hope next year is better for you!
Bro i am so excited for the next year man. Youll do gr8 sam
Hey Sam! Thanks for the update video and letting us know what's up! I always appreciate when creators can just real for a little bit, ya know? Very excited for all the work you've been doing and will do! On the note of if you should upload the short form content on KZread, maybe you could have a second channel for that or something? I'd love to see that stuff but I ain't on TikTok. Plus maybe you could give us some biology lessons??? XD Anyways thanks for all your hard work in this community! You are greatly appreciated!
Yes, Time Management Matter, but if your just as transparent with us and open with us as u are in this video, I’ll keep coming back😎❤️
it's fine dude, in the end, i catch myself allways watching every new video and stream from you, you have a good vibe that is worth being here just for what and when you decide to produce anything! There's a lot of people that are negative or have very very strong opinions, and, there is nothing wrong with that, but i feel like you express your likings and dislikings in a way that everyone can be chill about it, and that is something worth that made me really like your content
good spirit ^^ i'm personally rooting for it - Good Luck Sam
I didn’t realize you would be at the Chicago show so when I heard from someone at the theater you were going to be there, and to have the chance to meet you, as well as let you borrow the front row to meet up with fans, was awesome.
Sometimes quality IS more important than quantity. Only by giving a project more attention can it be the best it can be. There's nothing wrong with taking time to iron out the pros. Keep up the amazing work Sam! You got this
you did amazing this year man! can't wait to see how 2024 goes! on the topic of your work, do you know if update 3 is also getting a fast facts? or did sega stop that with frontiers in particular
I'm not disappointed this is the procrastination station after all I subbed be cause that's extremely relatable to me! I appreciate the update though! Also do the short form content on KZread just don't notify your subscribers the shorts will draw in new viewers that way I learned that from one of Pirate Software's shorts!
Well I am very impressed that you took part of the symphony, great job that was Peak effort there. I mean 1 quid per month is not bad at all I can handle that as a member. Happy new year when it comes 🎉🎉
love you Sam, been a fan of your content for years. I’m sure you’re aware of that because I’ve been in the streams and commenting in general. You’ve motivated me to try and start making my own Sonic based content but I haven’t got around to it because I’m a procrastinator at the end of the day, not just that but I have a busy life in general
No need for the apology, we know you try your hardest. Ty for all the fun and great content you have made so far. 💙
Good luck to ya going into 2024
*Sam's KZreadr Apology video* 😆 In all seriousness, though, there's no need to worry! Time management is a constant shift in our lives that we must adjust to every now and then. I know you'll do just fine next year, _so don't sweat it!_
Sam, you don't need to apologise. As a content creator myself, I know the stress of meeting my viewers expectations and juggling my own personal shitty life. It's hard. Just take your time and regain your strength. Also, while we're on the topic of apologies, out of the entirety of this year, excluding streams, I've watched ONE and only one video on your channel. And that was "The future of Sonic Frontiers" video... I. Am. SO SORRY!
Hey Sam! So happy to see you working as what seems to be a gameplay capture artist. As somebody who DESPERATELY wants to be one as well, how were you able to get that opportunity? What was the process that lead up to that?
Time management is something I have to work on myself, I understand sam :)
dang ur actually hella busy tho i dont blame you lol. good luck tho man
Really wanted that ukulele though.
I work at a movie theater, and really was blown away when I was walking through the halls, hearing sonic superstars gameplay ringing around me. To find out that’s partly you, is really comforting. To have someone I enjoy watching be (sorta) present while I’m working the days away.

Wait idk what I missed? But he made superstars play in theatres?? This is prolly a dumb question and I misinterpreted but I thought I ask💀💀
Aw I got excited at the idea of you pulling out the ukulele for a joke 😅 For real though, don’t beat yourself up too much. Everyone needs a break sometimes even if you don’t think you need one. As someone who’s dealt with a lot of self negativity for most of my life, I know how easy it can be to get stuck in a cycle of “I can do more, I should do more, should! Should! Should!” and wear ur mental health down to an unhealthy level. Not saying you should do more or you should do less. Just find a balance that works for you and your health. You said yourself you have a loyal community behind you and loyalty goes hand in hand with understanding which I’m confident your community is. Look after yourself dude 👊🏻
Brother life happens, we get it. Just try to do what you can specially when you on your own doing this.
Sam will you ever do a video showcasing your entire Sonic collection?

You’ve truly earned the title of Procrastinator love ya Sam, can’t wait for 2024!
In regard to the big gaps between videos, it doesn’t bothered me. I simply enjoy the videos when they arrived. I figured there is a fair explanation for reasons as to why. Maybe because I don’t engage myself in the channel super regularly myself. But I see no sense of failure as far as you as a creator. I mean as a viewer, no personal complaints there. Everything else, good for you. Although I was so incredibly curious what this new content series is suppose to be that never got off the grounds because we were fed with Sonic content considerably again. I wonder why we have to go through a drought in order for it to really happen? Only because we don’t know what it is. It is a bummer that it’s been on the back burner time after time with no clear indication when it happens, and I can’t help but wonder if it’ll ever happened as long as we receive Sonic content future years ahead… Maybe it would be best not to vague tease it so we wouldn’t count down or anticipate when if it’s only held back by Sonic news.
As Someone Who Ebjoy Your Video I Won't Mind Seeing Short For Your Chanel But Most Important It All About You Keep Up The Good Work Sam
No Worries Sam!! You're still one of my favourite Sonic Tubers and KZreadrs Period. Your content is still great and you put a lot of hard work!!! You're focusing on quality which I think is good. Also, congratulations on your accomplishment on your editing and its attention!! Plus, as my niche on my channel is Marvel, TMNT, Power Rangers and Sonic, I've been meaning to make a Sonic Video since I've joined KZread, as I've done at least one on the other three, but how I work is if I have an idea of what video to make, I start working on it. And I think I have an idea for my first Sonic Video, it will be a video essay on Sonic'06. Happy New Year Sam!!!
This year - I learned that meat messes with the mind and energy level.
Honestly, Despite your Videos being like a month or two after a release of anything i personally dont mind, because at the end of the day i still get to watch a video with the person I subscribed too, but its also admirable that you are trying to improve and more importantly have fun, I look forward to what you plan to do in 2024, Happy new year Sam!
You're doing great Sam, looking forward to all that 2024 has to offer!
This is disappointing sam I cannot believe you did this (I haven't watched the video yet)
Sam, dude its fine, i know everyone has a lot of issues especially time managements and mental health, Sam just do what you love, Just Do whatever makes you happy and we will always support you, I am an og Sonic fan here and you will be my TOP 10 best sonic youtubers
It's ok Sam sometimes people do mistake and I tbh enjoy your stream and your videos and I hope you get rest well and don't get too much stress always thinking positive Sam keep up the work👍
Sam, when there seems to be a news drought: “Here it is! The long awaited series, part 1!” Less than 30 mins later: *Sonic Adventure 3 Teaser trailer drops*
Bro, it isn't bothered me the delay of the video. Im seeing your videos because you are a honest KZreadr, I like that. I like your comments and your thoughts about Sonic 😊
This year was very interesting it went back and forth. Also you might have to get your get back on Fadel after what happened 😂
Procrastinators never quit and never give up! Keep it up with your impressive work and effort in the channel! Let’s hope the Procrastinator clan is the best Team Sonic Clan ever! 💙🖤💙🖤Go on and cheers for all Procrastinator patriots out there.👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Your Greetings: PerNordic 🔵🔵⚪️⚪️and my ‘’ wingman’’: CyberTailsSuperstars🟡⚪️

But for god sake! Do another Sonic Frontiers play through, Samuel! We want you to do play this recent great Sonic 3D game!
Sam's the name, procrastinating the game Nah, really, even if you think that about your content, your one of my favorites creators and channel of KZread, I enjoy so much watching and rewatching your videos, keep it up man
Not the ukulele… 🤣 Don’t sweat it man! No need to apologize
That thumbnail is gonna be used as a meme to fuck with people lol
oh
To br honest, the reason why I loved this channel nit because of it's content, but because Sam treat us like his children. And that's WAYYYYY TOO UNIQUE in youtube
The thumbnail is gold😂
I actually like watching reviews of a game after it's "new" phase has died down.
It takes practice from working videos, it doesn’t have to be “that” perfect and we all have opinions time to time.
I see lots of creators make reviews after a long while of a game's release. So it's okay to take your time without feeling the need to put out a review closer to a game's release.
0:49 Sam taking out all the references 😂
Since you mentioned both time management for editing and still wanting to do more streams, have you considered occasional live editing streams? I'm sure some people would be down for a bit of a behind the scenes look at how you edit, it doubles as you getting videos out faster even if slightly slower than editing alone, and also would just be a chill hangout stream with the community.
It's ok, Sam. You've worked so hard. It doesn't hurt to just sit back once in a while, man. Here's to 2024! 🎉
The thumbnail had me in fits
It's okay sam 😌 if not making video on your channel that's fine I'm always with you sir 😉 ( I'm Know you can get good a editor sam 😊)
It's all good Sam, we understand people can get real busy outside of youtube
There's no need to apologize, Sam. It's totally understandable, sometimes there are things that need to take priority. I would rather there to be rarely any videos, than to see you overworking yourself, and yet despite how much work you have in your private life, you're still making a lot of context. We are so glad you're still here, because you're one of the best Sonic Tubers on the internet Looking forward to 2024, for more of Sonic, and more of you💕
No need to apologize, sam. It's been a fun time on your channel ever since i subscribe to you way back in 2019 to 2020 i believe, which we're the sonic fans until the end, i understand what you had to something in real life, mine as well, I'll look forward something in 2024 next year, thank you sam for enjoying our laughs Together 💙
I've been coming and going since the Infinite theme reaction
Well during 2023 I remember you saying you weren't going to go over all of the smaller news and stuff, so I just kinda assumed the video decline was for that reason, which is fair enough Also I've been a member for a few months but still don't have access to the member discord chanel
The only apology you owe me is that we need to watch Project Shadow in a live stream with everyone. 😆😆
Love ya bro
That thumbnail tho.
Sam, I love your content I will support you on your channel Sam. I’m happy for you Sam for going to college. I’m going to college too I want to conservation biology degree in the future for the endangered species.
The thumbnail got me laughing for hours
Procrastination... Excellent 😊
Don't stress yourself out Sam! We all understand that you're a living breathing human being and that life sometimes happens. If you need to take a break or disappear for a while, I'm sure that majority of us will understand. Besides, your channel isn't called ''Sam Procrastinates'' for nothing! 😂 Happy New Year and may it be a good one for all of us! 👍
*So, that means I have you to thank for helping Sonic fans realize they've been singing the wrong set of lyrics for months?* Because you have no idea how many people are still in denial for "Show yourself" not being part of the official lyrics, so much so that they believe the lyrics video is wrong. Despite the fact Kellin Quinn himself was singing along. *Y'know, the song's co-writer?* That's what we get for Sega making the physical version of Sonic Frontiers ost, the real public source for the lyrics, a Japanese-exclusive release. With that said, thank you Sam!
I can't believe a guy named Sam Procrastinates would procrastinate 😱 unbelievable/j
15:00 It could be fun for giggles and other stuff like a short for fun fact. That would be interesting.
Absolutely unacceptable. No more chicken tendies for a week Mr. Samwich.
You didn't with that thumbnail. LOL
Not the ukulele💀💀💀
I’ll see it to believe it, Sam. Let’s hold you accountable
Just an idea, what if you did videos just rambling on ideas you have for Sonic like your dream Sonic game, dream Sonic movie, stuff like that

Saw that thumbnail, the fear I felt was monumental
Hey Sam, just wanted to say that I don't agree with your feeling that hiring someone to edit for you would be bad and wouldn't be "you" anymore, etc... and the perfect example would be Out of context Sam's X page. He could be a great editor for highlights and shorts. I love to see his small compilations of your best moments.
