Let's say this restaurant had free cash flow (money that is available to take out of the business) of $10k per month. Would you say that it is worth \"nothing\" just because I can't find a buyer? Wouldn't you buy it for at least some amount of money factoring in that cash you could make out of it? It wouldn't make sense for you not to - so there is some real underlying value and not just a \"scam\". \n\nThis is the same in the stock market. Apple shares could go to 1 cent of value because no one wants them. Well then whoever went and bought a share for 1 cent would get a 6,500% return on that share because Apple is going to pay out 66 cents per share this year.

Why? Because of cash flow generation of their businesses. \n\nIf you had a company with assets that exceed liabilities and they sell off all their assets, the equity owners receive that money.\n\nWhat you described is true for anything without intrinsic value.

Anything beyond that speaks to our own vanity and need to fit in. So no, I don’t like buying an accessory I have to learn how to tie that makes me hot and makes it harder to believe. I don’t believe in buying expensive decorations that easily get lost or create snag point in dangerous situations. I wouldn’t want my\ngirlfriend wearing heels that give her back problems that I have to hear her complain about. And I wouldn’t want to have to lend my buddy money one day because he thought it would be a good idea to pay some guy $1500 to paint his arm.\n\nFashion is a stupid game that we get roped into and pressured into playing. My dad is probably going to pass away within a year or 2, and part of me hopes I don’t buy/rent a suit just to play a part, to “show respect”. Though he never said it explicitly, I think he would agree that when people say “You shouldn’t care what people think of you” it’s stuff like dressing a certain way that they are talking about.\n\nSo that being said these kids can wear whatever they want and shouldn’t care what I think, but I have to assume he is wearing poorly fitted pants because he does care what people think of him. And I was no different. But there is often a reason why we laugh at ourselves when we see pictures of ourselves from 10-20 years ago.\n\n/rant", "I don't know why you think me saying that school uniforms are good is an attack on America. \n\nAttitudes like yours do answer your question about why I hate Americans though.", "This was the most recent comment I could comment of yours that wasnt deleted for basically trolling.

[ "Company is where it's at.", "Is this a quote? I'm sure I read this same comment a couple of weeks ago and it doesn't feel like deja vu.", "[From the stage show. ](https://youtu.be/oakRSpLXqtk)", "This is really mediocre. I had a feeling he was overhyped and you have confirmed it.", "Yup, because you can judge one of the most prolific broadway composers of all time off of one song from a movie version of one show.", "Apologies, truly. What about this clip specifically makes it great? The melody is standard. Is it the lyrics that are genius?", "No no, you're right about this piece - it's one of the simplest pieces in the show (if not the simplest), and the singer is Johnny Depp, who is...fine I guess, but not a singer. \n\nThe bit that bothered me wasn't that you called out the song, it's that you were apparently ready to dismiss his entire body of work (which is MASSIVE) because of one track, especially because Sondheim is one of the most impressive thematic writers in Broadway. Most of his composition makes heavy use of leitmotif/character themes, so by the end of a show you end up with multiple themes weaving in and out of each other, and seeing how they all come together is impressive.\n\nAs an example, [here's a piece from later in the same show](https://youtu.be/wQTVA9pbtng) (Sweeney Todd) where two duets (one of which is incredibly tough because of how it has to match up) end in a quartet and manage to incorporate like 7-8 different motifs and callbacks to earlier pieces.\n\nYou should also check out the [entire opening sequence for \"Into the Woods\"](https://youtu.be/FGfSYEVKyx4) (especially Bernadette Peters' entrance around 6:00). There's a ton of bouncing back and forth between ideas, some weird intervals and oddly matched independent harmonic lines, plus just some great writing. There are plenty of other great examples, but honestly if you've never listened to Sondheim I'd recommend listening through the original cast albums for both Sweeney Todd and Into the Woods (the OG original from the 80s/90s, though the recent revivals were also impressive - only difference is the originals have a full orchestra while the new ones had the actors playing all of the instruments in a limited ensemble).\n\nOccasionally you do get a fairly simple piece like \"My Friends\" in a show, but it's usually pieced in with solos/duets that have fast patter, weird intervals, random key changes, and stuff like that." ]

It might be better to instead appreciate, admire, and respect aspects of him to a reasonable degree. Or indeed of any celebrity.", "His audio books are a great. Especially the ones on Greek mythology.", "He also did the audiobooks for harry potter. Which doesnt really have anything to do with it but i figured i'd share.", "Sherlock Holmes, too! Those stories were absolutely enhanced by the personality and energy he put into reading them.", "I have them too, very well done. Agreed.", "Agreed.

Thats nonsense. As for biases, by simply being alive, being capable of experiencing things, we have biases.

That doesnt preclude them from unidirectional affection.", "I found this incredibly boring.

Everyone is still deserving of love simply by virtue of being human (until/unless they unequivocally prove otherwise).", "I can't listen to him for more than 30 seconds before turning it off, and I even want to hear what he has to say. He's just such a wind bag who clearly loves hearing himself speak.\n\nGuess I should stick to text with Stephen Fry.", "Can’t agree with all you said but yeah no one else really got to say much in the 30 plus minute clip.

[ "This video misses the mark in my opinion. It oversimplifies things, although that has to be a common conceit with economics.\n\nInstead, I would posit that the increase in work hours is a factor of the increased productivity of capital, increased capital inequality, and rising costs of living. As a result, those who are workers (more and more of the population due to increased capital inequality) have to work harder and harder to afford the cost of living. The European countries he highlights have tighter controls on costs of living and capital inequality, along with policies that boost the minimum wage to make the productivity of work better in comparison to the productivity of capital.", "Work smarter not harder. Burning yourself out for a company that's offering you nothing for it is pointless and they'll expect it from you all the time.", "Corporate Greed", "The fact that working harder and getting poorer both happen at the same time does not mean one causes the other. Rather both have the same cause: unfettered capitalism.", "Yep. Just because they pay you doesn’t mean you owe them anything. Take what they give you and give nothing back.", "An increase in the supply of labor puts downwards pressure on wages and leads to larger returns on capital. Thats why corporations push for more visas and why those with capital advocate for illegal immigration.\n\nPlease do not respond to this post.", "You aren't wrong about labor supply but immigration is not some evil scheme to screw over workers, if anything having free trade and closed borders just reduces workers to modern serfs and allows corporations to go minimum-wage-shopping.\n\nMaking it hard to enter is tantamount to making it hard to leave. Workers underpaid in their home countries would quickly gain a lot of leverage to demand better wages if they had the option of moving to a better labor market. \n\nIf you did allow free migration, in the long term the pressures that create mass economic migration in the first place would be dissipated as disparities between standard of living are erased and workers are able to negotiate for wages on a global scale. As it stands we have a global market for just about every input *except* for labor, which is kept artifically cheap with currency manipulation and immigration controls.", "If ~~I’m~~ “we’re” not making more profit than the year before this business is a complete failure so you need to work harder and more hours so ~~I can vacation in the Bahamas, buy a beach home and this years latest Porsche!~~ so we don’t have to lay you off after slaving away 70hrs a week for 12 years.", "your first few lines remind me of the idea that when they say \"8 million new jobs were made this year\" could actually mean that 1 person is working 3 jobs, not nesc 8 million people got jobs...", "Youre missing the point. You exchange labor for money. That is the extent of the deal in that there is diminishing returns. The monetary difference of 6 days a week instead of 5 isn't insignificant, but far less significant than the mental benefits of less hours, at least in the medium to long term, yet many times you get the businesses pushing longer hours with less help for the same money. Especially in the pandemic, if you were fortunate enough to keep your job, at least in the service/hospitality industry, you were more than likely making up for short labor as well. For little to no more money. Causing the work to reward ratio to rise. In that you would work more for the same money. But this video was kinda off mark.", "I'm seeing a few of the comments dismiss a few of the points in the video, claiming better workers or other issues. I think the biggest thing here is the free time. I do believe, with my absolute lack of education in this matter, that free time provides an increase across the board on a lot of factors. Some of these factors are mentioned in the video. I think if the average human can make a decent living while having a large chunk of free time in a day they will be able to contribute to society significantly more. When you only have 2 hours a day people are gonna spend that time winding down, watching tv, generally doing \"nothing\", if you have 6-8 hours a day... People are generally going to start working on other things outside of their work. (as mentioned in the video) This is the most key takeaway from this video and something that could definitely advance society.

[ "Ok but why. Are they bored? Is this interesting?", "I'm pretty sure the white guy is the anomaly in this situation lol", "Were you taught as a child it was rude to stare?\n\nI'm assuming this is just another example of cultural differences.", "From what i can gather is a result of having close to no privacy in public since they are so overcrowded. So them staring at you is considered fair game if you are in public.", "\"Now Timmy don't forget it's polite to stare it someone with a dead pan face and don't you dare break eye contact\"", "Why would anyone have any expectation of privacy in public?? You're in the **public** FFS.\n\nI made this statement out of experience gained from the international college I attended. Staring isn't considered rude and is socially acceptable in many countries; such as India or Nepal. In India it is a sign of their curiosity of something new:\n\n>As they say, curiosity is the mother of all invention. It is a part of human nature to give special attention to anything that is new or unusual. For a lot of people in India, experiencing a new culture, skin colour, accent, way of dressing, eating habits, or a lifestyle; creates a sense of curiosity, and results in uninvited Indians staring. Although this notorious concept of staring is more predominant in smaller towns and villages of India, no one is much safer from ‘those focussed eyes’ in bigger metropolitans either. Even through a prevalent practice, it will not be fair to tag India as the capital of staring, and to generalise that the stares are only limited to foreign tourists who are visibly different in every facet than the local crowd, even locals are stared at. ***Unlike western countries, staring is not considered rude in India.***", "Lol, i love it!", "This causes tension in other countries. Interesting that its a norm.", "A white guy crouching in a station, openly recording himself and everyone around him as he speaks English into the front-facing camera of his phone while wearing a Go-Pro on his head.", "Its really strange and would kick off my anxiety.\n\nhttps://youtube.com/watch?v=MaZ4o-c4czM", "Coming from a developing country, I too did this as well. As a child I will see people from other countries mainly with European features and I will stare. I remember being fascinating but how tall they were and how it was possible for a person to have blue eyes. Also how come they have blonde hair. Then they will speak among each other and I will hear a different language so I will stare even more! I also wondered what in the world do they have in those backpacks and what are they doing here. So this were some of the questions I was having while staring. It was just uncommon to see someone with different physical features." ]

It kills before anyone can figure out what it is and it attacks young healthy people, either because they are the ones swimming in warm fresh water or because it just likes the challenge. When it's identified the patient is usually on an autopsy table. This amoeba has a 98.5% fatality rate, and the few survivors usually have permanent brain damage. \n\nWrestling alligators while infected with covid is less likely to kill you than a Naegleria infection.", "That's the one! Good find.", "\" I just shit myself \" the most honest statement anybody anywhere has ever said.", "I assume that gator was setting himself up to get things coming out of the pipe, not setting up to poach fish from the fisherman. Obviously he would if the opportunity arose, but saying \"he knows whats up\" here seems to imply something I don't think is happening.", "i lived in fl 30 years and have voluntered for the park service in the everglades. The gators very much learn to stalk fishing holes and take the easy meal. I have no doubt thats what he is doing.", "I’m sure that does happen quite a bit, I just think you see an ambush predator here with its head facing the flow of a pipe. This is incredibly similar to what you see many other animals do when feeding in rivers. Inlets and passageways bring food to you so you don’t need to move around to find it. \n\nNow I wouldn’t at all be surprised if this being a fishing hole increases the probability of the gator getting a meal which makes it more attractive. But the gator appears to be set up for prey in the effluent. \n\n(Although maybe he sits there for possible meals while waiting for a new fisherman)", "Holy shit" ]

[ "\"The Roman leadership was decimated.\"\n\nIf you make ancient Roman battles videos maybe you should know what decimation means?", "the historical usage of a word doesn’t necessarily dictate it’s current meaning. To decimate is most commonly understood (if we accept dictionaries as being representative) as meaning “to kill, destroy, or remove a large percentage or part of”.\n\nMore to the point, language is literally just a means of exchanging information. So long as you can understand clearly what someone means, it has been used correctly. This pointless pedantry over the “correct” usage of words seems to stem from a misunderstanding of language as something static and inflexible, rather than a fluid and constantly changing medium. The modern approach to teaching languages has resulted in a backwards system where entire generations worship dictionaries, grammar style guides, and the like as prescriptive rather than descriptive, and I honestly think it’s damaged our ability to experiment and communicate creatively in writing, and with language generally.", "Honestly what you wrote would be more applicable if the word didn't have a prefix that usually means 10 in other words but in this case might mean destroying most of something.\n\nIt's like if in the future people argued that 'quad bike' could also be used for a 3 or 5 wheeled vehicle while leaving the word unchanged, like adding the number somewhere. \n\nI mean even quad bike has quad in it to show it's a 4 wheeled offshoot of *bi*cycle.\n\nAlso in this specific context, the youtuber's videos are about ancient battles where he runs the risk of having to talk about a unit of soldiers that gets literally decimated as a punishment.", "If you seriously think most people are going to find this in any way ambiguous, than I think you drastically overestimate the number of people who know or care about the etymology of the various latin loanwords present in the english language.\n\nWhether it makes sense in the context of the original latin understanding of the word is irrelevant. The fact is that, today, the word is used to refer to the destruction of a large portion of something. In the context of the video it’s pretty obvious that, no, the Carthaginians aren’t enacting an impromptu military tribunal and ordering one in ten of the commanders be put to the death. If the Youtuber in the video ever does have to discuss decimation as a punishment, I imagine he’ll be aware that most of his audience is unfamiliar with that use of the term, and therefore provide clarification on the difference between the past and present use of the word—most people are able to understand that the meaning of a word can change depending on context.\n\nAs for the issue of prefixes, there are plenty of words in english (and, hell, in latin itself too) that gleefully ignore the original meaning of the prefix: to take a word used above as an example, tribunal (and its ancestor, tribe) originally referred to the three social groups of the early roman era, but no one today will be confused about it not referring to one of three groups, despite the prefix.", "In 99% of possible contexts, decimate is a perfectly cromulent word, but within the context of Roman military history, I respectfully disagree on its cromulence when used like this. Diluting its very specific meaning within this context does no one any favors. There are plenty of other words for slaughter and massacre. And *decimate* is not some esoteric word that no one knows.\n\nHe really should do a video on its exact meaning, if he hasn't already. It's a horrific concept. Beat your friend to death, or more of you will be killed.\n\nOtherwise an excellent video, and I'll certainly be watching more from his channel. Cannae? Yes. Yes, you can.", "I disagree with your argument, but I have a grudging respect for your pun-game.", "I Cannaet imagine what it'd be like to be a Roman fighting in that battle.", "I'm more bothered by the lack of non-battle related history content.\n\nI mean, battles are fun and all, but content like this massively overemphasizes their importance.

You wouldn't know this exists because its below the interstate down in the valley.", "That would be good to see, especially as I’ve seen more roadkill around Birmingham lately. \n\nAre there any city planners or engineers or environmentalists that could answer this: Is this kind of construction as effective as we’d hope, or is it somewhat of a waste?

They get aggressive this time of year, 2 skiers were unfortunately taken last winter.", "Yeah I've been reading about that here and there over the years and so far they haven't been using it that way from what I've heard. \n\nThey also need to mate though, and cougars and other predators have *very* large habitat ranges so they have to keep moving if they want to reproduce.", "Not much evidence of this so far.

Removing it would also allow you to do audio retakes rather than trying to record the whole thing in one take.", "It doesn't really take anything away from the review either tho", "I appreciate what you're doing, but I felt like there was a lot more to say about the game.", "Everyone feels like you until they get a sponsorship deal...", "There is no time to sponsor this! Ill open the video and just scream \"RAID SHADOW LEGENDS!!!!\" \n\nThen start the review.", "Agreed, but I think that's kind of the point. This provides only a quick overview and gameplay footage, which is just enough information to know whether or not you're interested. If you are, you can watch a full review. Really helpful when you're looking for a new game and there's a million options out there.", "Oh there is! So here is the plan, get my bearings about me...figure out how the hell to edit stuff...then release two videos! One that is full length for those who care, and then the 90 second video for those with the attention span of a Nat!", "Sometimes I think seeing my enthusiasm for the games adds to my points...but you are probably right. I just dont wanna be another voice in a sea of reviews!", "Soo tired of the bloat. Easy sub! Can't wait for more content!", "Love the idea, and enjoyed that review", "Anything longer than 90 seconds would require an 8 minute sponsor ad and a 30 sec like and subscribe message.", "I dig this review style! Nice work!", "Appreciate that! I dont wanna waste anyones time. Here is this game...It was okay...SEE YA! lol", "Thanks! It was a fairly difficult game, but reminded me of Blade Runner with the aesthetic of everything.", "Thanks for the positive vibes! Its kinda fun learning how to put videos together. So much respect for people who can make some of these videos out there on Youtube. Its crazy.", "I like how you say there’s not enough time for an advert and then immediately showcase how you’d put one in.", "Clearly joking.

I dunno", "Oof ya, now its 35 min videos. But alas...hes got something to say!", "I came up with a concept years ago that I'd play the first 30 minutes of a game, cut the gameplay down to 60 seconds, and give it a simple \"yes\" or \"no\" based on if I'd want to keep playing or not (Called 30 Minutes in 60 Seconds, or 30m60s). Never took off, never knew how to properly share it with people. I think the youtube algorithm really doesn't like short videos.", "Was an absolute buggy mess on xbox, which is a real shame because I could see the fun just out of reach.", "With the multitude of indie games out there this can strain out the dust.

It just kinda looks like you're glancing over at a script and is getting my attention away from the gameplay. Get rid of the camera and do quicker cuts that synch with your bullet points you're reading out. You could have something really cool on your hands. If you get big enough you'll have plenty of opportunity to talk to the audience with a webcam.\n\nEdit: I just want to emphasise this has nothing to do with your looks, just imo would fit these videos better.

I care about my audience's time so I will only give them exactly what they want\"\n\nand that's great if you are just doing videos for a hobby but once you want to put more time into them but want to be paid for that time things will change", "I think, you like to get slapped AND paid.", "I know what you mean, but then, there are places to go to hear more about the game. I think if you if you want more, then go somewhere else.\n\nMaybe what you're saying is that while 8 minutes is too long, 90 seconds too short? Maybe he should consider the format a bit more before he goes big? Like maybe 120 seconds? or 3 minute reviews? I could get behind that as well.", "I think the shouting the ad thing is fine.

Hope to see you cover more games similar to Ascent, Black Mesa, etc. Good choices there. Are you planning on doing one for Halo Infinite (either campaign, multiplayer, or both)?", "I liked it", "I think webecams are mostly good, but could be even better with a green screen so you could blend with the background of the game, rather than the square of living room in gameplay.", "Because the only companies paying for adds on things like this are trashy and invasive?", "I think one major thing you forgot to mention was the insane amount of bugs this game has. Ruined the experience for me unfortunately.", "Gotta agree here. Great idea and good execution on the videos, but save the cam for Onlymans or livestreaming.", "I think the cam detracts from it and makes it feel like a mainstream review or a reaction video on Facebook. You have a good speaking voice, trust it! Voice actors, sports announcers, and managers at Walmart over the PA all do great jobs at conveying emotion and hype without ever being seen. \n\nPersonal opinion, if you do continue to use the cam, make it more immersive. Green screen setups can be cheap (it doesn't have to be green!) And OBS is free and doesn't have to be used for streaming. And even/broad lighting make all the difference. Even a cheap light ring will do the trick.\n\nIt's a game review video. Ideally people are staring at gameplay and trying to associate what your saying to what's on screen; especially since it's fast paced (being only 90sec). I know some people hate the overlay on reviews because they're trying to check out the HUD or what button pressed (if shown) do what.\n\nI used to stream a few years back, and i tried the whole face cam, then room cam, then eventually stopped camming altogether. If I want to share the experience of a game with people, I wanted them to see all the same things I was seeing, and not block anything. You can get away with bigger letterboxing and put yourself to the side. It gives room for graphics, captions, live references, links, etc.\n\nJust throwing some ideas your way. I really like what you're doing and look forward to seeing more reviews!", "I guess it depends on how it took him to create this 90 second video. He might have saved these clips while playing the game for himself so that doesn't add to the time. Then he clips them all together to meet a 90 second video and does a voice over.

You clip out so quick that is hard to understand you.", "Well, you just got another subscriber just based on principle.", "Yeah sponsorships are worth an astronomical more amount of money per 1,000 views than just the basic Adsense revenue. The reality is that those sponsorships are simply necessary for many CC’s to make content full time. \n\nIMO, the important thing is to not promote products you don’t actually approve of yourself. Like I’d never play Raid Shadow Legends, so im not about to accept a sponsorship from them", "Idk, Jomboy does it right and he’s got tons of sponsors.", "Feels like there’s something between 10 minutes and 90 seconds. This felt rushed, with high words per minute, no breaks or pauses and little time for reflection or emphasis. Negative space is important in art and entertainment. I’d worry less about the specific time and more about a top level review. What did video buy us in this review? You mentioned that the visuals were a top draw for the game, but didn’t really find a way to show case it in this visual medium, you told us about it, didn’t show us.", "I love this game. I’m jaded and have a cold heart but this was special", "Well it's his call who he wants to accept sponsorship from because it's his youtube channel. And it's your call what videos you want to watch on YouTube because that's your YouTube, its not like anything is being forced on anyone here.

No one cares about ads on YouTube anymore, the drawn out videos to hit 10 minutes are what’s annoying", "I agreed with first guy but now that you explain your reasoning I agree with you. You're pushing tons of data in 90 seconds, and being able to see your expression when you give your review will crunch in a little extra info. \n\nA few unrequested pointers if you keep the webcam; get your camera closer to your script, otherwise it will be very obvious when you're reading off the script and might detach the user. Memorize your key points if you can and blast more energy down the barrel of the lens, doing multiple cuts (since it's only 90 seconds) then picking the best one from 4 or 5. Also light yourself a little more aggressively and you'll pop more on screen. \n\nThis is a killer format. Adam Ragusea exists on youtube now because he had an innovative no-nonsense idea like this one. If you keep it up you will be successful.", "I like it. Will check out The Ascent since it is on GamePass.\n\nI would love there to be a collection of channels like this called \"No Bullshit\", just any and all raw reviews without rambling, joking around, or extra crap.

I know the point is to make the reviews quick and digestible, but the reviews are so short that I don't necessarily feel I've gotten the full picture on the game by the time it's over. I feel like you could extend it to *at least* 2 minutes while maintaining the 'short review' appeal.\n\nFor instance, I'm not sure if it just never came up for you but there are *lots* of steam reviews for this game lamenting game-crashing bugs and losing save data.

YouTube views him having 50,000 subscribers and only getting 300 views they stopped showing your stuff and your channel dies. During the Mr beast rewind a bunch of those people he shouted out also got fucked over by getting an influx of like 300,000 subs but nobody watches their stuff when YouTube recommends it out to the people who subscribe so they get really low engagement.\n\nTrying to build a fan base off of spam posting your shit on Reddit doesn't work and is an absolutely horrible idea but by all means I don't care I didnt have to spam post my stuff like op to gain subs.

It focuses more on the run-down city aspect than on the tech aspect. There are phases in CP2077 that barely show any tech whatsoever, and other moments where fighting a gang feels more like what I'd do in GTA. That is, unless I start using the nethack skills, which do feel very much Cyberpunk-esque. But still, not enough.\n\nIn The Ascent though you are surrounded by tech.

Here’s my 2 cents if you’re interested:\n\n- Drop the PIP of your face - it adds nothing (I don’t mean that as an offence, you’re a good looking guy but it’s not needed for this concept). \n\n- Invest in a mic and some post processing for audio - it’s not as expensive or as complicated as you think.\n\n- Don’t be afraid to make money with sponsorship. If you go hard in on the 90 seconds, the second you get a sponsor your entire concept is in the bin. For me sponsored spiels are not the issue once integrated organically, my main gripe is the rambling and shit talking for 75% of the video.

Joerg Sprave (the SlingShotChannel) is pretty open about sponsorships being the sole reason the channel still exists. I do think certain things are a bit iffy though, like endorsement of investment sites which gives out “free” shares for signing up. I know Colin Furze plugs sites like that a lot and it doesn’t feel right considering his audience are mainly younger people who probably have no knowledge of the risk associated with the stock market.\n\nThen we have people like Daniel Thrasher where the sponsored parts are mini-skits in themselves.", "great concept, subbed.

However, our culture has changed so that people just buy/consume anything that they're told that they need. Look at pre-orders. This has become such an anti-consumer practice but millions of people throw their money at pre-orders multiple time per year, only to be burned time and time again. And then they wonder why publishers continue the practice without realizing that they, the consumers, are the ones enabling the business model. A huge portion of consumers are spending their money on what they *believe* a product will be, not based on what it actually is.\n\nMediocre goods and services *shouldn't* thrive. But people are so brand/culture loyal now that mediocre and even bad products thrive simply because they're associated with a specific market.

I think I've seen about that game somewhere else on a livestream when first seeing it but i can't put my figure on it from the person streaming it since i was just briefly watching them play it. The game seems pretty interesting with that whole Diablo feel to it from how the game mechanics were made somewhat only more of a shooter.", "Haha no I don't give a shit what you do mate.

That's some r/hailcorporate logic", "His \"shout-talking\" style is also pretty grating but I appreciate the amount of work he puts into videos and I watch them all.", "Oh yeah? Well I just check the % positive score.", "It’s because the video is not about a review but an actual commercial w/ the sole purpose of making money.", "To be fair Ludwig's way to market the video was somewhat similar. Use \"slightly manipulative\" out of the box thinking social media tricks to get as many eyes as possible on your content (and as long as it's good content, people will watch, subscribe, share etc.)", "It is worse than that. The algorithm is brutal on short content. They want content long enough to shove multiple ads in.\n\nSo someone genuinely focusing on short, to the point content. Even if it was a 5 minute video, would really get beat up by youtube.\n\nThat's a huge reason why people trend towards the longer videos and start putting sponsors in.", "Spammer", "Raycon is a shit product and i hate youtubers shilling them", "You aren't going to get paid then", "Yeah but your last part there is what the point really is. There's no point spamming your channel on Reddit or wherever else if people will stop watching just as soon as they start. I'm amazed that this post is so popular because the video itself is so average.\n\nRealistically you have one chance to have a popular post like this. Now don't get me wrong, the amount of views, and to a lesser extent, subscribers he will get from this post can be considered successful. But if the videos are all of this quality his channel isn't going to continue to grow and the subscribers he does get will start to view his content less and less. So you could almost view this as a wasted opportunity despite the short term success.", "They also only watch the first hour of the movie and review it based on if they want to finish it or not, right?", "It's brave until you lose out on ad revenue due to not dancing to the content hosts tune. It's the same reasoning that got us recipe webpages that are 90% ads and crap and 10% the actual recipe. Google enforces this through their search engine, just how YouTube promotes it's money makers and will leave your 90sec videos to bitrot.", "You just gave him a full review of his reviewing.

It feels like along time when you say it all in one go...not so much when you watch it lol", "Thats a really good idea. I was thinking about going away from ratings and just straight up saying if I think its worth the money and time.", "Ok then I’ll rephrase it: if you aren’t committing illegal acts and breaking the law then I don’t fucking care what you’re advertising get that fuckin money. If you’re a content creator there’s a 99% chance nobody will fucking know who you are in ten years and will not remember or care what you advertised and promoted.

Quicker cuts or synched cuts makes sense.", "The only things he mentions without showing relevant clips are the plot and the fast travel. Literally every other clip is relevant to what he's saying. Scenery, gym bro's, character creation, rocket jump, mech suit etc. \n\nI have no idea why you'd think otherwise, I saw *maybe* 3 random clips.", "Didn't I see this exact same concept like 2 weeks ago?", "Hell, even when YouTube Shorts came out in Beta, I was doing sub-60 second reviews for it. I was one of like three people that did it at the time, and after doing like 20 videos; it doesn't work.", "> but you are damn right that the popularity rule is fucked up for content creators !\n\nIt's pretty fair actually, only 10% of your total **submission** history can be self promotion related. It ensures that people aren't mainly using reddit as their own advertising platform and that the site is littered with spam and advertisers.\n\n[Here's the subreddit you get when you don't have self promotion rules.](https://old.reddit.com/r/gamers/)\n\nMore than 90% of the content in that subreddit is self promotion YouTube and blog spam.", "neither it means Carrot Choppers", "just shave your nuts and then grow the hair back bro", "If raid paid me 25 grand for a 60 second add I would become a raid YouTuber overnight lol", "I said my two cents, there are many bullet points, I've said all I can say and it's my opinion.

The clips just aren't random, they're related to what he says.\n\nIs banjospaceman a reference to outer wilds? I just finished that and loved it, it has a banjospaceman too.", "Holy shit. I've been thinking about that game but now you may have solidified me getting it. I had no idea.\n\nBanjo is just taken from Banjo Kazooie, my fave game ever.\n\nBuying Outer Wilds now haha thanks friend.", "It's awesome, don't spoil it in any way (unless you get stuck or something). Enjoy, lol. \n\nBanjo Kazooie is neat too.", "I havent watched a review of his in years, but thats mostly cause I dont watch game reviews anymore.", "Oh ok.", "Yeah I think he usually opens the video with the name of his sponsor and a note that there's more info about them at the end. So a 2 to 4 second name drop and a full pitch at the end. Maybe that's where he saves it. Anyone who opens the video will see the name drop, at least." ]

[ " That's nice. IMHO was a great watch. Slightly comedic and the actress was attractive. That plus sci-fi gets 5 stars", "I remember reading in this video essay something about how \"the medium is the message\". When you take a story out of the original medium it was written in you fundamentally change so many elements of that story. Going from anime to live action is the biggest leap one can make, and in order to make it work you have to change so much it kind of brings in to question why would you do it in the first place?", "I'm fine with adaptations, as long as its not 1:1. Stop trying to translate something designed creatively in a 2-D space and trying to shoehorn it into live-action as faithfully as possible. Most of the time it'll just come across as overtly silly and nonsensical without the right VFX and setting. Adapting something needs to have some kind of original vision that has a grounded world built around it. Use inspiration from the source material but don't copy/paste it. Man of Steel did this well with the costume designs and intricate glyphs on them to modernize whilst still honoring the canon of the source material. \n\nWhen it comes to VFX, photorealism can be a double edged sword (see original Sonic concept/Lion King remake) but it really can make or break taking a source material that has primarily been 2-D and elevating it to live-action (first time seeing Iron Man come to life was really something). Again it all goes with the vision and the overall worldbuilding. They need to establish the universe or world first and then conceptualize the characters that would inhibit them after. Those movies are just a few that successfully took the modern world we recognize today and introduced something we could have only imagined in a comic book.\n\nI think with Cowboy Bebop, they straight up centered around the characters first and then made the setting they inhabited a mere afterthought. In the original source material you got a sense of the atmosphere, the boozy noir-ness of the music that matched what the tone the series was gunning for, and viewers understood the scope of the laws in how this universe operated. With each episode, the viewer learned more and more about the world and its society. In the remake (and like many remakes) they just toss the viewer in without any care of context. Here's the good guys and those are the bad guys.
