I was super excited this video came out, and immediately posted it to the video community.
I'm still excited, but I guess everyone forgot about him and hates video essayists now. The metrics are horrible. I feel bad, he worked 2 years.
Edit: that "I" was on accident! I'm not him.
I think people prefer essays on events/people over a 5 hour game documentary.
It's both. It ties in with the history of the internet and economics. Another video he made was about chess, but it was also about early AI.

I personally like it. I love Dan Carlin aswell and he'll go even longer.
There is no other way. At least for anything worth learning about.
