“Markiplier” is Dead!?

It has been announced in a YouTube video released on 10th October 2017 that “Markiplier” has been killed.

Who is Markiplier?
Mark of Mark Edward Fischbach is an American YouTube celebrity that has been joining YouTube since 2012 and has been becoming famous since that. For example, in 2015, he is mentioned by Susanne Ault in “Digital Star Popularity Grows Versus Mainstream Celebrities” that his channel is rated as the 6th out of 20 most influential celebrities among teenagers in the United States (with PewDiePie as 2nd). In 2016, he signed to Revelmode, a subnetwork to an American multi-channel network, Maker Studios, along with other YouTubers, such as Jacksepticeye, and PewDiePie.

How is Markiplier killed?


Recently, Markiplier has finished a series called “Who killed Markiplier?”, and his recent videos have been highly inspired by that series. From the first episode, it can be seen that “you” are invited to “Markiplier Manor”, with other invited guests. Before the first night passed, various roles and characters were introduced briefly, such as the Colonel, the Detective, the Mayor (Damien), the Butler, the Chef, and Markiplier himself. However, after the first night passed, “you” found Markiplier was dead on the floor, lying in cold. Followed by the others who came in after you, they see the body too. Thus, the mystery begins as other true characters slowly being revealed, and will there be another murder occurred after that?

Some of the roles that played in the series were played by various people, such as the Butler was played by Mark’s manager and his close friend, Tyler Scheid, the Detective was played by a voice actor and online animator, Ricepirate, and the Chef was played by an actor, Robert Rexx. On the other hand, the Colonel, the Mayor, and Markiplier were played by one character, that is Markiplier himself.

They did decide to change their decision to trademark "react videos". Overall the Content Cop didn't affe...
