Seems to be tied to his whole rebrand. He's seen how common clickbait is on YouTube - this community is no exception with people like vailskibum and phantomstrider getting close to a million views sometimes with similar methods - and thinks that's how he'll get and keep new viewers. Brings me back to when he used to make videos like "Top [number] WORST [topic]" which are his best performing videos to date.

It used to be called something like "This Donkey Kong Country Episode was WEIRD," but now it's "The WEIRDEST Donkey Kong Country Episode." Give top billing to the adjective with HIGHEST exaggeration... The ULTIMATE clickbait strategy.
Before fucking a browser, at least buy it dinner first.
So like-- we're just gonna forget about the Dunn's then, okay buddy Enter (I don't even like the Dunn's anyway, so good riddance). As for the Growing Around franchise, it's still going? Why is it still going?
"Come buy my typo ridden novella about background characters from a cartoon that doesn't exist!"
Technically, he did publish a book about Sally, it's just no longer available. So, in a way, this is a sequel to a book he no longer wants to let people read.
You assume he's going to mass publish this book?
And, he was just sperging about making a Wizard of Oz clone a few weeks ago, so we already see how fast he abandons these things in real time.
Let's assume Mr Enter actually goes through with all this shit, giving him benefit of the doubt. Who the fuck is going to be able to understand a "day in the life" thing?
"From the man who didn't bring you the GA tv show, comes a contextless spin off of a not-yet-produced multimedia franchise, the scripts for most of which are on a deleted deviantart"
I think I've said this before, but Growing Around could have been a fun comedy about kids being in charge as an experiment, and how the ambitions of youth will inevitably lead to mayhem when left uncheck. Like, you could parody unhealthy work culture (work long hours, go home only to sleep), except its with some streamer kid who thought it'd be fun to make money playing games.
I think the issue with people trying to make Enter's show deep in a way (including Enter) is because of many reasons
You answered your own question. GA can only be viewed as "deep" and serious, because Enter intended it to be that way. Enter's world building for GA includes adult "re-education camps" and details about the weaponry prisons guards have, which are unintentionally horrific. And details about how everyone over the age of 17 is stripped of their rights, completely unpersoned (especially if they have children), and forced to attend school until they "graduate" in their 60's. There's no comedic bit I'm leaving out either, Enter is 100% dead serious about these concepts being seen as serious.
I've seen this a few times before. Enter realizes his status quo isn't financially stable or emotionally fulfilling, so he's shaking things up to get both the audience and the algorithm back on his side. Then, the moment he's satisfied and the hatedom calms down, he'll regress back to monthly rant videos like nothing ever happened. You can already see the regression as his rebrand is a convenient excuse to stop uploading Topics of the Week.
What a slippery little shit.
And then his fans will scream and cry that he’s “changed” or what little fans he has left.
