From what I've seen, a good 80% of that "analysis" tends to just be filler in the form of a dry recounting of the events of the game. If you apply that kind of "analysis" to a book then all you really accomplish is creating a shitty abridged version of the book.
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

Anything other than video game treats would be nice.
The treatbrained im sure are in hog heaven, myself not so much
There is probably some reason video games lend themselves to the medium of videos better than books
Fuck that. I'm discussing the ancomm subtext of Kao the Kangaroo in concrete poetry.
I'd watch that. That sounds good and new and cool.
You consume these video essays aye?
I love me some long-form reviews and retrospectives
I did, its way too oversaturated with that type of content right now.
That just means there's an overall increase of high quality videos due to sheer volume while you can ignore the shitty ones
YouTube doesn't work that way
Sucks that it isn't better. But if you're judicious with your "unsubscribe" button then you can curate a personal list of good ones easily enough.
That presumes I subscribe to trash in the first place
I get almost all my trash these days from /c/videos. I'll sub if I like it, but if I watch a second video and don't like it I drop the channel.
You are too gaming treatbrained
