I like how mechanical, complex, and just plain weird it is!

Not really, I think. I stopped watching when he decided to scrap the one with similar format and start over with something that looked like it will be at least 4 meters wide.

Afaik X got scrapped but he's trying again "the right way". A recent quote he took to heart is "perfect is the opposite of done", and he's making good strides. Not that any learnings from MMX got lost of course, he's taking all that along, but now he has a clear goal in mind every step instead of just playing with his toys.

I used to watch regularly, until he just kept rebuilding the same pieces over and over again. It was starting to feel like he didn't really have a plan and was just milking the viewership.

He scrapped the wide one and is starting over again.
