Video essays somehow skip past my eternally short attention span

NecroParagon , (edited )

Only when they become a recap of the subject for 90% of it do I get annoyed, lol.

I've never even thought to look into JP lore. But this is my front page now

Short list of favorite long YouTube "documentaries":

All of these are very good

Damn, these playlists are gold, some of the things I watched are included.

jsomae ,

I have never played genshin impact and I object fundamentally to gatcha games. But I like video games a lot. Should I watch?

PlexSheep ,

Definitely! I never played it too and the video was amazing!

Wav_function ,

Bobby broccoli! So good

JayDee , (edited )

Also check out Fredrik Knudsen's DTRB

I have not been able to get up from a single one of his videos. They're all addictively well-paced and written. All great vids.

DogWater ,

Nice I'll check this out for sure

Pheral ,

One of my absolute favorites!

The 6 hour video about EVE Online was a ride.

There i think that's it. That's a ton of stuff but I really follow more quality YouTube than anything else and I like sharing great YouTube channels. If you enjoy interesting YouTube I would honestly just check a couple of these out and see if the topics fit your interests.

These channels range from science, space, physics, to history, sports, cars, to tech, movies, games, to makers who build stuff seriously as well as builders who make stuff silly.

Not everything here is video essay, but it's high quality content imo

Missing all the mathematics channels smh. (Numberphile, mathologer, 3blue1brown...)

DogWater ,

It's true, I'm subbed to 2 of those

JasonDJ , (edited )

How you gonna have Wendover and not Half as Interesting (his shorter form side-channel)?

No Road Guy Rob? Or Practical Engineering?

No Extra History? (I only know him from Nebula but I think he's on YouTube too)

Also recommend 8bit-Guy for retro computing and Modern Vintage Gamer for retro gaming.

DogWater ,

Oh shit practical engineering! I have Grady!

Also undecided with Matt Farrell

Phegan ,

Based on the names I know on this list, I am super excited to check out the ones I don't. Thanks!

Also check out miniminuteman too. Good pseudoscience/conspiracy theory debunking.

DogWater ,

Nice! My list here is science, videogames, tech, cars, sports, spooky conspiracy stuffs, and space

So if youre interested in a topic let me know I can point you to the right channels.

Got_Bent ,

I know several of those. One I don't see listed is stuff made here. If you're a fan of backyard scientist, you're gonna love stuff made here.

Smarter everyday is really a special one. The way that guy involves his kids and his own boyish excitement when he finally gets an experiment right is downright heartwarming. Then there was the whole episode checking in on physics girl. He had no particular incentive to do that. He just really seems to care.

DogWater ,

You're right about stuff made here. Love that.

AgentGrimstone ,

I only get sucked into these if I like the narrator's style. Some people just have a natural way of talking that can keep my attention no matter what they're talking about.

CptEnder ,

But seriously it's that Christian Bale?

itsnotits ,

is* that

DogWater ,

It's no tits

Or it's not it's

Where's pannenkoek2012's Super Mario 64 invisible walls explanation video on your list?

PlexSheep ,

I know that name, what a legend

ninjabard ,

Defunctland has some of the best researched stuff I've seen. His dive into the Disney Channel Theme is absolutely incredible.

Glad to see Tim Rogers on that playlist - guy is one of the best in the biz

The real commitment is when somebody like Plainly Difficult uploads an annual omnibus of all their videos for the year. I watched them all individually, then I watch them again in 9 hour form.
