its honestly heartbreaking how insecure he is abt his content, i think the darkwood videos and all his other long form content are worth every second. he doesnt try to stretch anything out, they just end up that long
Darkwood wasnt even time wastey, and drew pointing at darkwood is wild inaccuracy because it didnt waste your time, it literally gave you, told you all the content you can find in the game.
@@AgarthanWarrior88 i think its the concept of it being a uniform entity, or a monolith video is what makes it a time waster. Something doesnt need to be bad or intentional to waste your time, just has to be long. Like an 8 hour series is less of a time waster since it has clear stopping points, being divided in smaller segments. But for a monolith video, you cant really do that. Once again, not saying the darkwood video is bad, but saying that its not a time waster is disingenious. You are watching an entertainting video with really high production quality, on some game that you will never play or think about again, probably ever. Entertaining != not time wasting. time wasting is not a bad thing anyway at this point, we all do it on a regular basis anyway In the context of the video, time wasting is shown as something being dragged out for longer than needed (something like every non-main channel pyro video tbh), which is NOT a definition i used for the upper part of this comment, but its still a valid definition, esp for the purposes of Drew's video. But theres just one thing - COME ON, you all really think Drew actually used the Darkwood video specifically as an example of a time waster? Is that really more believable to you than the possibility that the editor just needed a screenshot of a video with long runtime, and pyro's notoriously long main channel vids popped up first / came to mind first? calling it mean and snakey (referring to the first replier here) before putting any thought into it like spreading hate is the first thing that should be done im overyapping sorry
i honestly loved the length of the darkwood video. it gave me something really captivating and interesting to watch across a few days. It was easy enough to pause and pick back up where I was. I loved hearing the whole story and dialogue without worrying that important parts were skipped, gave me a lot more room to have my own thoughts on it. The video was visually very interesting/creative and yet not so demanding that I could still look away and multitask. Perfect to draw to. It definitely takes a lot of work to make a long video that good and captivating the whole way through. So Darkwood is the first 6 hours+ video that managed to keep my attention. Thanks for making long form videos!
Ill be honest, drew pointing out Darkwood being a waste of time is incredibly wrong. Darkwood managed to keep me engaged majority of the time, never felt like my time was wasted but enjoying this product you made. It had explained a lot, the story, content, characters, etc. Drew just snaked you tbh.
Could be wrong but I think he just meant it as an example of a long video, probably wasn’t trying to call him out. BUT… still probably should’ve used some equivalent to the 0:01 video (i’e: some random 10 hour video of rain ambiance)
Drew did not specifically call out Darkwood, and he also said that some videos make sense to be that long. He voice acted in Darkwood so he clearly doesn’t believe it to be a complete waste of time
As someone who genuinely loves this channel and prefers when react shit has pausing, long form shit > short form any day. Especially with stuff like since these videos are supposed to just be Pyro yapping, giving opinions, etc. It irks me seeing the comment section being unable to make any interesting comments other than "he turned a 1 minute vid into a 4 hour slopatron!" I like putting these on while I draw, work, clean, whatever.
The most ironic thing about them interviewing random ah RUclipsrs about the Elise Lam case is that they didn't even ask Brandon Rogers. He literally worked on the case, and revealed that in an Anthony Padilla (Smosh guy) interview. Guess he was too much of a risk, accuracy means less than brand safety huh?

you should give yourself more credit, it takes me a few sittings to watch your 8 hour videos but it's worth it! I like that you explain everything cause a lot of the topics you cover aren't things I know much about or even heard of ❤ I love uncovering new media like that
Love the long form videos. When I saw the dark wood video on my feed, it was like an event. Same with Far Cry and cruelty Squad. Very well made and very in-depth plus plenty entertaining to watch. Keep it up king
“Vince Manson” pyro please turn off tik tok when you watch movies, and the whole of wwf/wwe wasn’t from his father, he had to terraform wrestling territory to form the success of the company
Personally, as a person that has his work to heart, people like Pyro make my shift so much more tolerable, 8h is a godsend usually, makes my day go by faster, all whilst learning new things Props to you my man!
I honestly wish that either dark wood was longer or that I got my brain erased so I could experience it again. I live for the long-form pyro. Keep it up
I watched every single second of the darkwood video (albeit, spread across a few days due to irl commitmets), and even by the end of the 8 and a half hours... I was wishing there was more. Pyro did such a good job delving into every tiny bit of lore he could find. That, combined with the animations, voice acting, even in-person interview. I was incredibly pleased. There's nothing wrong with youtube videos like that when the creator obviously cares as much as pyro did about sharing a message about a game he's deeply passionate about. I was kind of disappointed that all of the top comments on the videos were the classic pyro community ragging on him rather than praising the monumental amount of effort that went into the video, but here I am praising it on an entirely different video, so who am I to judge...
1:07:08 I’ve had something to stimulate me constantly since i was 8 and sometimes I just take a break and go outside for a bit with my thoughts and just enjoy the air and city sounds. It’s very refreshing
It's been so many years ever since TikTok, YT Shorts and IG reels (I'm not adding the ultimate brain rot Vine in the list) and I still haven't watched a single short video that was worth existing. Because if you HAVE TO SAY STH, you can't say it within 60 seconds.
I love how RUclipsrs will start explaining the complete history of a company or content creator before explaining a controversy that takes like 5 minutes at the end of a 30 minute video. Or a deep dive video that just recaps the whole plot of a movie or game in excruciating detail instead of actually analyzing anything
as old as it is,i think the best anime to recommend you is cowboy bebop,it is old as hell and you might not like the sci-fi scenery,but i think its aboslutely cinema
honestly i like insanely long vids like this, i like to have something in the background just listening to it while im at work, tossing boxes of fruits around
Hey pyro not sure if you’ll even see this but have you seen that fidias joined the EU parliament? It completely flew under my radar. I can only imagine your reaction to seeing fidias becoming a politician
I found your Darkwood video really interesting, but due to University starting up, I had to break it down to an hour for each segment so I could watch it over the span of 8 days
His right tho. A lot of documentaries can be cut into being just 40 mins to an hour long but they milk tf out to be 8 episodes 1 hour long each. And a fat chunk of it is the person explaining the other person’s and they’re own lifes while asking questions that have no connection to whatever the documentary is about. Like I don’t care that the guy scratched his ass and sniffed his fingers at 10 am while waiting for the bus.💀
its honestly heartbreaking how insecure he is abt his content, i think the darkwood videos and all his other long form content are worth every second. he doesnt try to stretch anything out, they just end up that long
honestly lol. It was actually so mean how Drew used Darkwood as an example, especially since he did voice work on it. Feels a little snakey tbh
Darkwood wasnt even time wastey, and drew pointing at darkwood is wild inaccuracy because it didnt waste your time, it literally gave you, told you all the content you can find in the game.
i hope pyro sees this little thread, it gets kinda sad how much he puts himself down because of his audience
