A few of Noah's recent-ish vids you also hear him just take a line again from the top and leave it in, makes it feel more real

Not sure if it was in the brilliantly voiced lp of Pigs here but there were videos switching some audio from both games and it was classic. A machine for Esther was one, if memory serves.

Anime Abandon looks at Kimera.

EDIT. Kind of a weaker outing from Bennett, IMO. I like when he talks about industry veterans and background details but he ain't lying when he says this episode is a mid 2000s riff review. So keep that in mind if you like his more analytical videos.

Cackling at transitioning into the deadly premonition music after the big epic monologue.

I had no idea the Dear Esther people made one of the Amnesia games, how wild.

Not going to lie, I would like to see something like this, but isn't really something Harris would do because it would be a little too much punching down.

If he was one of those Anti-Woke reactionary conservatives, possibly. If he was a plagiarist like Somerton, and it's a problem to address absolutely.

But I think the angle would be something along the lines of "why would anybody make video essays their thing, if they aren't media savvy" and go into the lengths people go to follow trends from the AVGN clones of "I am forced to play this game" to the Video Essays where it's better spent doing an iCarly Recap Podcast.

And then point out the best ones are the kind that find their signature voice and run with it, like Legal Eagle or Abandoned or Stop Skeletons From Fighting.

Culminating in that third act twist - lots of YouTubers are burning out fast and "quitting" and go into something like the Game Theorists being like a Cinemassacre, pre-written voice or people like Tom Scott have better things than YouTube to do, YouTube is not everything.

And if it was anybody else, they would just go for the low hanging fruit of "look at this weirdo who watches a sitcom for teenage girls and spends hours talking about it, FOR THE IRONY"

that being said, hbomberguy dunking on Brian Robbins being friends with Dan Schneider would be really funny
