Personal Life

CoryxKenshin is deeply religious and often adds Bible verses at the end of his videos. He never curses or swears in his videos, something that makes him stand out among the other Let's Play commentators. Answering a question from one of his audience members on whether he curses and then edits them out, he once said, “No ... because I don't curse in real life, so why would I curse in YouTube video?”

Personal Life

In the beginning of his stint on YouTube, he was primarily a vlogger. He focused his content on his school life and then when he was in college, on that, often editing in snippets of videos of himself and his friends. He posted videos once or twice a week, which hasn't changed much since then. Sometimes they become even more sporadic than that. He took a break from YouTube in late 2011, returning in April, 2013.
