I went into this game in VR not knowing it was soft horror and hard to stop a little after the tposing dude showing up on the scanner. Watched a speed run after because I needed closure lol.

I had the same experience. Really wasn’t expecting the jump scare.

TL’DW? It’s >1 hour, and would probably be <5 minutes read as an article.

I’m really not a fan of the trend for really long video essays, especially since it’s almost always padding and repeating similar points.
Anything up to 25 mins is usually fine, but 35+ is in the realm of ‘I’ll add it to Watch Later but never bother watching it’ and over an hour I’m just going to keep scrolling

Kind of a dumb take, just say your attention span is too short to watch long form analyses lol

I guess you and I just have different tastes. I don’t think I’ve watched 1 hour+ videos that were just repeating, but the only ones I’ve watched that are that long are Dan Olson and Super Eyepatch Wolf.
With those I intend to watch half now and watch half later, but end up engaged enough to just watch them through in a single sitting

Sure, just take the all of the ingredients out of your sandwich and eat just the crust…

Of the alternative is waiting 90 minutes in line, sure, why not?
