I don't even mind people lifestreamung for 24 hours it's their choice to do it. But some type of videos should not exceed 5, 6 or beyond under the guise of trying to "educate" us about whatever they're babbling. This is not the new norm it's another form of diluting information and filling it with unwanted garbage to waste more people's time. @teamilk

There is a video out there (I don't remember what channel) called something like "a brief discussion on Skyrim " and it's I think 24 hours long (I think it's broken into 2 12 hour parts)

You know you're not required to watch a video just because it shows up on your home page, right

Nothing wrong with a several hour long video on a subject you are interested in.

My problem is 30 minute "ads" from places like prager u. Took me way too long to stop getting these after reporting them every time they popped up.

Sad to see you come to that conclusion after reading this topic. I'd have reconsider to watch if it's an hour or even 2 hours long videos about deep dive of that video. 3 hours? That just pushing it but OK. Human are not meant to digest that amount of information with that kind duration of video. Just because they can doesn't mean they should. Umm chaos theory

No one says you have to watch all at once. I mean if you have ever watched an anime, or series show they are 30-60 minutes an episode, but have 10-20+ episodes a season so each season is at least 10 hours. You just watch it in bits, nothing says you cant do that with long videos.

Heck DBZ is 291 episodes so about 116 hours long in total.

Gonna be honest, it takes me hours and hours of work to make a 20~ minute video between writing/editing my scripts, getting footage, working on other assets like thumbnails, and editing the video.

I have a ton of respect for people who can make behemoth videos like the 10+ hour ones. Even if there's stuff added in to inflate the runtime, I'd imagine that there's still a ton of work involved.

The topic is literally

You: "I don't like this type of video, YouTube should remove them altogether."
Others: "You can just not watch them."
You: "I already don't watch them, but I don't want them to exist."
Others: "But others enjoy them, so why shouldn't they be able to watch them?"
You: "Because I don't like them and those other people are wrong!"

A "review" for something 10 hours or more sounds ridiculous. There's no way you could talk about something for that long without a told of fluff and padding. The Skyrim video sounds more specifically like it's intended half as a joke when it says "brief" and goes for exactly one whole day.

No. Youre wrong to worsen their life by taking away what they already decided gave it quality.

No. But it applies to this. TC wants to dictate the removal of something harmless that has an audience.

I mean, I guess it could be considered brief to a Skyrim player starting their umpteenth 100+ hour file?

About as much as GameFAQs should to do something about so many users having 'slop' vocabulary. There are other words for low extremely quality stuff. But so many of you are like kids obsessed with your new favorite word.

Those long videos from that patriciantv channel are dog water. They just describe the game, while making a snide comment or something every 20 minutes.

Long video channels I do recommend are
  • https://youtube.com/@shoogles_ (Pokmon)
  • https://youtube.com/@Jwlar (elder scrolls and other RPGs)
  • https://youtube.com/@crendl (great videos on Redguard and Battlespire)
  • https://youtube.com/@hbomberguy (RPGs and uh, pop culture I guess? You know who hbomberguy is)
