Video essays about games used to be cool. Now it seems like thats the only video essays new people put out.
Why?
I’m assuming just because it’s low hanging fruit and an easily accessible from of pop culture?
Regardless it’s getting to be too much. It’s no longer interesting if every other video is trying to be deep and analytical about video games.
I really like playing games, just there’s too many video essays on them now.
That’ds what I mean, Jacob Gellar used to be one of the few doing it and he’s good and actually makes you think.
Then within the last few years it seems like every youtuber and their morher wants to make video essays about video games…
Also a bunch of people trying to get a job or “side hustle” probably. They picked video games because the bar for discourse for them is super low.
