Lol, you can't stop me.' Further additions to videos were added in 2020 with this video, he started doing clips from the video before his spoken intro. Such as his Farming Simulator 2013, Revelations 2012 and Black Mesa Vs. His thumbnails have (for the most part) been stills shile he was recording with some being fabricated in an editor.
WhyBeAre also played other games, notably Street Legal Racing: Redline, Jalopy, Infra, Driver San Francisco, Spintires, Poly Bridge, Stranded Deep, Airport Firefighter Simulator and Rig 'N' Roll, and others. In 2013 he started playing BeamNG.Drive, which he well known for. He then moved on to various other games (mostly simulation). He started his channel via playing FPS games back in 2011. The name 'WhyBeAre' derived from the letters 'YBR' which is his initials spelt backwards.
