User blog comment:Jkphantom9/Shane Newville: "An Open Letter to All Who Treasured Monty Oum"/@comment-27842750-20160513151043

I just need to say this. I know...well...practically everyone loved Monty, but this needs to be said.

Monty is gone.

Yes, his vision lies still there, but we cannot live in his shadow forever. At some point, we have to make our own decisions are ourselves, and create new things, we have to interpret what he wanted. Some of the things that were brought up didn't make sense, and some did. But I enjoyed Volume 3, and I will continue to watch RWBY, because I don't think Monty was Jesus. I think that he was a human, an exceptionally gifted human, but a human nonetheless. At some point, we have to make our own decisions. If Monty were alive, but unable to interact, do you think he'd want us to follow every one of his instructions? Or find his own path?

The thing I'm upset about is what RT is doing. If you're going to do you own show, stop making statements like "we're honoring you," because, the truth is, you're not. You're making your own show, and that's okay, but be honest about it. Saying things like "In honor of Monty Oum," that's just sick. If you really want to honor him, why did you not bring in his wife? You know, thone who probably knew everything about him?

Make up your mind RT.
