Ranboo is a popular live streamer who has over four million followers. A live streamer is someone who broadcasts themselves to an audience, often on YouTube or Twitch, in their broadcasts they can do anything. A majority of streamers play video games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Much like other online content creators, Ranboo&#8217;s real name isn&#8217;t publicly available. He is 19 years old and uses he\/they pronouns. He wears a face mask because he has severe <a href=\"https:\/\/health.clevelandclinic.org\/facial-dysmorphia\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">facial dysmorphia<\/a>. Ranboo rose to fame in late 2020 after joining the Dream SMP (Survival Multiplayer) Minecraft server. He quickly became a fan favorite due to his improvisational acting skills. Currently Ranboo streams many different video games on his Twitch channel and is a member of the Sorry Boys YouTube channel. A channel that features many of his previous Dream SMP peers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Bro my project sent me to the hospital on the first day <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/g8NepAhvLf\">pic.twitter.com\/g8NepAhvLf<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Ranboo (@Ranboosaysstuff) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Ranboosaysstuff\/status\/1661524533780652033?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 25, 2023<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo by @Ranboosaysstuff<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ranboo has been working on Generation Loss for the last two years.

It has been a labor intense passion project. <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dexerto.com\/entertainment\/ranboo-suffers-second-degree-burns-to-his-back-after-accident-for-twitch-project-2157175\/\" target=\"_blank\">Ranboo got greatly injured on set but persevered.<\/a> The series premiered on May 24 and finished on May 28. With three episodes, roughly an hour and a half each. All episodes were acted live &#8211; like a play &#8211; with rare moments of prerecorded clips. The audience voted on the choices Ranboo&#8217;s character, also called Ranboo, could make in real time. Like a video game protagonist.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Episode 1: The Spirit of The Cabin<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/6NtFYeJ-WK4?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Episode 2: The Mastermind of the Warehouse<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/J6itxrDyQWM?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Episode 3: The Choice<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/eA9U4U9LOe8?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The absolutely insane experience of watching live, of having direct influence over a pivotal moment in a project that I&#8217;ve excitedly waited to see for two years, it&#8217;s almost indescribable. I am so proud of everyone involved. I am still in shock and awe. The artful lens and craftsmanship that went into every sound, fiber, and wire of this set. The commentary on internet personalities being treated like toys, breakable and replaceable. On corporations controlling their entire self, on corporate greed being so explorative of a generation. I can\u2019t stop thinking about it all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Hey fellow Gen.
