  Except then you got to wade through a dozen videos all an hour long that are like 55 minutes longer than need to be.

    You can literally see the length of the video as you search, idk what to tell you, this has never been an issue for me

      I’m confused by this comment. I know how long the videos are, my point is they are too long. That’s what’s never been an issue for you? You’ve never found a YouTube video that is way longer than it needs to be?

        Not in this context because you can just click one that’s shorter that covers the same issue

      YouTube algorithms are purposely designed to encourage longer videos. There’s no way you’ve never seen a video that isn’t incredibly inflated with fluff.

        Good thing you can scrub the video and skip the fluff

    Also you can skip ahead in the video.

  You and I must be using different Youtubes. Any time I look up an Elden Ring or Silksong boss guide video, the person recording it starts with a “This boss is actually really easy…”

  Videos also help a lot when I have trouble navigating levels (Dark Souls is kinda notorious for that), and when they’re that confusing, the layout is pretty hard to visualize in maps, too.

  First you have to listen to a sponsor pitch or two scam products
