    At least the angry guy screaming about games finish their point in five minuets, and they only manage to repeat themselves about half as much as a 30 minuet video essay

      YouTube should bring back videos only having a 5 minute maximum. Not for efficiency or data usage, mind you, but so these fucking dorks learn to edit shit down. I do not have the time to watch multiple 30~50 minute essays on whatever the fuck and I'm a terminally online, unemployed, NEET.

      It's like these videos keep getting longer and longer.

        i wonder if the long videos do better because people just leave them in the background and let the commercials play

      Actually true. It used to be when people like Jacob Gellar or Noah Caldwell Gervais, put out long form critiques, they were a rare treat.

      Now everyone and their mother wants to make 30 minute plus videos talking about video games. Rarely do books get the same sort of analysis.

      i dont mind video games. I enjoy them, i just dont want everything i consume to be about video games
