Nah I prefer the 3 hour long video essays about a show made for children with the corniest animated avatar imaginable in the background occasionally changing poses.
I tend to watch these kinds of essays because I tell myself "Oh drama I'm not aware of" but most of the time it devolves to them just retelling stories from tweets and then chastising whoever they're blabbing about. Half the time I give up cause it's so boring especially when they act all sanctimonious about the whole thing.
It sucks, because there are other RUclipsrs that genuinely had a downfall by doing illegal and predatory things, yet most dramatubers only focus on Twitter drama

They need to seem “neutral” and “impartial” by “not taking any stances” but also think their bias is invisible just because they say they’re neutral Which is a why a trans woman being annoying on twitter 3 years ago is treated with the same level of vitriol and analysis and Calls to Action as a dude who committed actual murders and heinous crimes
What annoys me is when I go on social media feeds and people are posting things like “I can’t believe I was ever subbed to x” or “unsubbing from x after that shit” and I scroll through tons of posts about “what they said” and “the controversy “. After a while I’m just like “LOOK WILL SOMEONE JUST EXPLAIN WHAT THEY DID!”
I had a conversation with a friend the other day about this really. While early RUclips and other social media content used to be more experimental, it seems now more about expressing outrage, and replying on a reply or an online gossip *about a stranger who've you've actually never met neither you'll ever will meet, neither has any important cultural or political power.*
It was experimental back in the day because people didn't know what kind of content would be successful, now everyone knows they can be a cheap rip off of someone else or get cheap views by fueling outrage
I miss the 2010 youtube it was so inncoent and genuine. Now it has been adultered by all these brain dead clout chasers and rage bait content. It really goes for the internet as a whole, where Forums and independent websites existed, with niche communities. Today the whole thing just feels like fast food chains.

Becoming a RUclipsr only has three branching pathways like an RPG 1. Going crazy 2. Going to jail because a. Alcohol, b. Going after a child, or c. Said going crazy 3. Perfectly normal and the 3 hour long video essay about their spiral into oblivion ends up more popular than they are.
@@calebtitler1847 I only use RUclips for music and the odd gameplay video from number 3 on the list. Nowadays 99% of content is either ads, reviews for products I’ll never buy, a surprising amount of poorly edited "skits” made by five year olds revolving around cartoon characters, and crappy commentary videos about whatever the new drama is or 5 hour long video essays that never even address the premise in the title.
I still kinda like him, but recently he has some old guy opinions or straight up is too harsh on some stuff, I'm forced to think "yo dude, just chill a little"
It's crazy how a guy who uploads himself talking to a webcam in his bedroom for 20 minutes straight without any fucking editing can make millions constantly while spouting the most populist takes ever. He's like wet toast.
2-10 hour video essay on a childhood show I've never seen in my life >>>>>>>>>>> The same 10-30 minute "video essays" about the "downfall" of a bad RUclipsr
The video essay saturation is sooo bad. They do weird topics for video essays, usually on people that 99% of normal people will never know or care about. And they all sound exactly the same with the same power point presentation formula. It's "video essayification" of youtube LMAO
Drama video essays are the worst. Video essays on topics and media the creator is passionate about is okay, like Thorgi Arcade making video essays on games and movies he really likes.
I saw someone call pyrocynical’s response video to his allegations a “video essay” and i never wanted to scream at a stranger through the screen so bad
They be doing a video essay about what happened to someone who doesnt upload and its 30 mins about the youtuber's history,5 mins about his sponsor and 5 mins actually answering the question
i really love video essays because its either a 2 hour long video about a random youtuber or celebrity ive never heard of committing multiple felonies, or like a 2 hour long video about the history of pancakes or someshit. Both are nice though
you just summed up a very big part of youtube right now. Everytime im gonna click on one of those videos, I'll say "No." and rewatch this video instead
I think this is how I felt after I lost an hour of my life watching that SunnyV2 video about that no-one who made those stand-up battles or roasts or whatever that were awful, I didn't even know that person and I don't even care about them, I felt as if I had lost part of my life listening that for nothing.
Video essays like these will be an hour and ten minutes long. With the first hour being about how the RUclipsr is a bad person, and then the last ten minutes being about what the RUclipsr actually did.
The full clip: "Was Hitler really that bad is such a stupid thing to say, I've been getting comments like that, and I just want y'all to know it's incredibly disrespectful..."
Then some Twitter loser edited it then the internet saw just the clip on Twitter then before Charlie and sunnyv2 saw see the orignal eddy deleted the stream
Thank god bro! I am getting over these Video Analysis, essay and review guys! They all try to be edgy with a take or build their entire platform on being a conservative movie reviewer or a progressive. It’s so common these days I was thinking about joining the trend and naming my channel “yet another video essay channel”.
tbh you could do it ironically like this video does, make it a parody & all the video essay haters will come out of the cracks "yet another video essay channel" is a bit of a mouthful though
I considered it years back, even thought about using my FFXIV character as a mascot. Then I realized how cringe it sounded and decided to just stick to gaming
Literally considered doing this myself just to voice unpopular opinions on topics like this, but then I heard my own voice in recording, then looked at my own scripts and decided against it.
Can't help but think of all the videos I've gotten in my recommended about the LavenderTowne Hazbin Hotel thing. "LavenderTowne made a lazy and badly researched video and apologized and took it down like a day later. Now let's continue to talk about how bad the video sucked and how bad the redesigns were for 20 minutes in 100 different videos for no reason"
those really pissed me off ngl like lavendertowne is such a sweet person I’ve been watching her for so long now but the hazbin hotel fandom legit just can’t take criticism you shouldn’t have to apologize for a bad redesign like come on now
what annoys me the most with this type of videos is their excessive editing. like they've never heard of "less is more". also most of this wouldn't happen if twitter didn't exist
Penguinz0: "You know I don't really care about goobers or youtube star celberty drama" Also penguinz0: *Proceeds to talk about celberty drama every single day 7 days a week like it's gospel and the fate of the universe depends on who he sides with*
so true how so many youtube essayists make 10+ minute videos on topics on drama that they basically know little about or have very little actual input into (that isn't just general opinion) and get a million views. Boggles my mind
Finally, a video that makes fun of these drama channels Tbh alot of channels like lagovirt, turkey tom, sunnyv2, toastify etc just feel lile they just leech off of drama for the sake of it while also have very defensive fans who are addicted to drama lol
I love this kind of slop but honestly tom had kinda fallen off since he got larger. Same with Sunny and Toast was never on it tbh so maybe it's just always sucked and I was a lot easier to impress like 3 years ago lmao.
The fans always act like they're saints for "calling out problematic people" when most of the time they are just vultures who profit off other people's careers going down the toilet. Not that some of these people didn't have it coming, but when you make a 3hr long video about the latest cancelled youtuber it's clear what you're doing it for (looking at you, D'Angelo Wallace lol).
@@madamebkrt what’s worse is when you have valid criticism against some of the things they’ve said, whether is criticizing their heartless tone or have been misinformed their fans will defend them to the death (and let’s be honest sometimes people treat a RUclipsrs opinion like it’s the 10 commandments.) And the defenses can range from “ you just don’t get it bro” to finding ways to invalidate your opinion like “nuh uh! Ur a furry/nsfw artist/zombie/tf2 scout main/genwunner/etc so ur opinion is invalid” These people end up being more interesting, annoying, and sometimes worse than the people their favorite essay RUclipsr called out.
The saddest part is how their fans will keep parading around outdated and even outright wrong information for years on end. Even when the person they attacked had to prove their own innocence because frankly none of them will.
Thank you!! Oh my god!! Bless you for making this!! These stupid video essays have been showing up in my algorithm nowadays and it makes me fume!! They usually talk about people I barely know or care about and other things in pop culture that I don’t care about! I don’t want to watch a video titled “Your favorite show, book, or movie sucks and here’s why.” Let me enjoy my interests in peace! So you didn’t like this show, do you have to make a whole video and share to the world why you didn’t like it?!! That is some next level boredom I can’t imagine!! So once again, I thank you for this video! Video essays have been showing in my algorithm and it’s driving me crazy!!!
same i saw a TWO hour long video on steven universe and it was like holy shit you watched 5 seasons of a show u didnt like and then made a TWOHOUR long video about jfc.. just to say why they didnt even like it whwat
Oh yeah! There are actually some people I've literally never watched before ever and from another channel that I've never seen before they'll upload a video talking about that very person I've never watched before and for some reason I'll watch it. Damn you are spot on on this😂
I deeply regret and apologize for my recent statement suggesting that Hitler wasn’t bad. This comment was extremely insensitive and disrespectful to the millions of victims of the Holocaust and World War II. It was a grave mistake, and I fully acknowledge the pain it may have caused. I understand now that such a statement is not only historically inaccurate but also harmful. My words do not reflect my true beliefs or understanding of history. Hitler was responsible for immense suffering, genocide, and atrocities that are universally condemned. I am truly sorry for any hurt or offense I caused. I am committed to educating myself further on these matters to ensure I never make such an error again. Thank you for holding me accountable. I am dedicated to making amends and being more mindful and respectful in the future.

3. Perfectly normal and the 3 hour long video essay about their spiral into oblivion ends up more popular than they are.
this is so accurate
Matpat going years without touching kids.
It's that fucking easy.
Unfortunately stuff like this is why I never wanna be a RUclipsr. Sometimes getting popular isn’t everything
@@calebtitler1847 I only use RUclips for music and the odd gameplay video from number 3 on the list. Nowadays 99% of content is either ads, reviews for products I’ll never buy, a surprising amount of poorly edited "skits” made by five year olds revolving around cartoon characters, and crappy commentary videos about whatever the new drama is or 5 hour long video essays that never even address the premise in the title.
@@MrCritic77 same but add in duck videos, horrgame walkthroughs etc
0:58 that moist critikal impression was perfect :edit: mom i'm famous
the fact bro also has 62 subs
It’s not really hard to impersonate him he just has lower voice monotone syndrome
@@1kbmahansyndrome?
Siah The Clown also did an absolutely perfect impression of him.
Please stop with the like thanking man
Gods, the Charlie bit was so accurate, it hurts at this point. Used to be my favourite youtuber.
I thought I was the only person who noticed how he's changed.
I still kinda like him, but recently he has some old guy opinions or straight up is too harsh on some stuff, I'm forced to think "yo dude, just chill a little"
"cmon idubbbz, you shouldn't be apologising to black people"
It's crazy how a guy who uploads himself talking to a webcam in his bedroom for 20 minutes straight without any fucking editing can make millions constantly while spouting the most populist takes ever. He's like wet toast.
@@youtubesucks3882 ooh, wet toast, i like it.
My problem with video essays is that they are always biased or misinformed
2-10 hour video essay on a childhood show I've never seen in my life >>>>>>>>>>> The same 10-30 minute "video essays" about the "downfall" of a bad RUclipsr
THIS>>> love when ppl are passionate and it’s just a vid abt something they’re interested in and not that gossip crap
YES now those are the vids I'm interested in.
You expressed my interests too !
Yes or like superheroes and comics
Lol true, video essays about things creators are passionate about is just better than watching all those youtuber dramas
Can’t believe SunnyV2 and MoistCr1TiKal are going after my boy EddyPlays, he literally said it was just a question 😤
So, what's the answer?
Yes
@@khaledahmed9136 no
@@khaledahmed9136 He wasnt bad
If he was your boy then why aren’t you subbed to him 🤨
The video essay saturation is sooo bad. They do weird topics for video essays, usually on people that 99% of normal people will never know or care about. And they all sound exactly the same with the same power point presentation formula. It's "video essayification" of youtube LMAO
The more I think about it, it all started with LeafyIsHere lmao
They ALL talk the same way, dramatically slowly, stretching the last word slightly while pausing randomly
@@Hemogg1 That or it's a teenager who spends the whole video mumbling and mispronouncing words.
Drama video essays are the worst.
Video essays on topics and media the creator is passionate about is okay, like Thorgi Arcade making video essays on games and movies he really likes.
I saw someone call pyrocynical’s response video to his allegations a “video essay” and i never wanted to scream at a stranger through the screen so bad
They be doing a video essay about what happened to someone who doesnt upload and its 30 mins about the youtuber's history,5 mins about his sponsor and 5 mins actually answering the question
Now its hour long livestreams going over Twitter messages
Remember, if the essays have overly dramatic music, visuals and narration, you can make any boring topic relevant.
i really love video essays because its either a 2 hour long video about a random youtuber or celebrity ive never heard of committing multiple felonies, or like a 2 hour long video about the history of pancakes or someshit. Both are nice though

you just summed up a very big part of youtube right now. Everytime im gonna click on one of those videos, I'll say "No." and rewatch this video instead
But how will you know that a youtuber with 62 subscribers did a bad thing
Seeing that Saberspark made this kinda video on Butch Hartman just this week, *with the same covering of the eyes thumbnail* I'd say you nailed it.
oh my god, i forgot about him. i used to watch his videos a lot.
@@celestialbunnysame, his video quality really went downhill for me, and I stopped watching him
NOOO NOT HIM TOO
I thought you were just lipsyncing to a clip of Charlie, that impression is crazy accurate.
I think this is how I felt after I lost an hour of my life watching that SunnyV2 video about that no-one who made those stand-up battles or roasts or whatever that were awful, I didn't even know that person and I don't even care about them, I felt as if I had lost part of my life listening that for nothing.
This is modern RUclips drama essays summed up perfectly in one video.
The fact that you just watched the video even tho you dont know who they are is extremely accurate and realistic.
I know so much about drama involving people I've never heard of in my entire life it's unreal.
Making fun of video essays is becoming my new favorite subgenre on youtube.
Until it gets corrupted and overused by the unfunny kids.
@@Ozzy622 It's already being overused by uninteresting adults.
Video essays like these will be an hour and ten minutes long. With the first hour being about how the RUclipsr is a bad person, and then the last ten minutes being about what the RUclipsr actually did.
The full clip:
"Was Hitler really that bad is such a stupid thing to say, I've been getting comments like that, and I just want y'all to know it's incredibly disrespectful..."
Then some Twitter loser edited it then the internet saw just the clip on Twitter then before Charlie and sunnyv2 saw see the orignal eddy deleted the stream
Fax
I can’t imagine how hard it was to get Charlie to cameo in your video, huge ups on that.
Those essay videos the type of stuff to play as backround noise
Video essays are the fancy equivalent of skibidi brainrot
Skibidi brainrot only need few seconds to get the effect, but youtube essay need 4 hours of a video to make your brain rot.
It's brainrot for people who want to look smart
@@thecaptain6520This
This is so true
@@moh.syafrianabie8899 not really
The MoistCritikal glazing was so f***ing accurate, glad to see someone call it out
this is basically SunnyV2 but he makes the least dramatic things sound like the worst thing to happen to mankind ever.
Whenever there's a video essay about a youtuber with
SunnyV2 the second a popular RUclipsr gets 1 less view than normal:
Thank god bro! I am getting over these Video Analysis, essay and review guys! They all try to be edgy with a take or build their entire platform on being a conservative movie reviewer or a progressive.
It’s so common these days I was thinking about joining the trend and naming my channel “yet another video essay channel”.
tbh you could do it ironically like this video does, make it a parody & all the video essay haters will come out of the cracks
"yet another video essay channel" is a bit of a mouthful though
I considered it years back, even thought about using my FFXIV character as a mascot. Then I realized how cringe it sounded and decided to just stick to gaming
Literally considered doing this myself just to voice unpopular opinions on topics like this, but then I heard my own voice in recording, then looked at my own scripts and decided against it.
That was genuinely the best moist impression I've ever seen.
I saw the thumbnail and had a heart attack 💀
Can't help but think of all the videos I've gotten in my recommended about the LavenderTowne Hazbin Hotel thing. "LavenderTowne made a lazy and badly researched video and apologized and took it down like a day later. Now let's continue to talk about how bad the video sucked and how bad the redesigns were for 20 minutes in 100 different videos for no reason"
those really pissed me off ngl
like lavendertowne is such a sweet person I’ve been watching her for so long now but the hazbin hotel fandom legit just can’t take criticism
you shouldn’t have to apologize for a bad redesign like come on now
what annoys me the most with this type of videos is their excessive editing. like they've never heard of "less is more".
also most of this wouldn't happen if twitter didn't exist
Penguinz0: "You know I don't really care about goobers or youtube star celberty drama"
Also penguinz0: *Proceeds to talk about celberty drama every single day 7 days a week like it's gospel and the fate of the universe depends on who he sides with*
Most of the time he makes one video about a topic and that's the end of it
The script writing is crazy, and the acting too. Loved it
so true how so many youtube essayists make 10+ minute videos on topics on drama that they basically know little about or have very little actual input into (that isn't just general opinion) and get a million views.
Boggles my mind
So glad people are finally noticing how garbo Moistcritikal's videos have become.
His videos are mostly still the same, but he has leaned more into negativity. For his streams though it's the same thing
Finally, a video that makes fun of these drama channels
Tbh alot of channels like lagovirt, turkey tom, sunnyv2, toastify etc just feel lile they just leech off of drama for the sake of it while also have very defensive fans who are addicted to drama lol
I love this kind of slop but honestly tom had kinda fallen off since he got larger. Same with Sunny and Toast was never on it tbh so maybe it's just always sucked and I was a lot easier to impress like 3 years ago lmao.
The fans always act like they're saints for "calling out problematic people" when most of the time they are just vultures who profit off other people's careers going down the toilet. Not that some of these people didn't have it coming, but when you make a 3hr long video about the latest cancelled youtuber it's clear what you're doing it for (looking at you, D'Angelo Wallace lol).
@@madamebkrt what’s worse is when you have valid criticism against some of the things they’ve said, whether is criticizing their heartless tone or have been misinformed their fans will defend them to the death (and let’s be honest sometimes people treat a RUclipsrs opinion like it’s the 10 commandments.)
And the defenses can range from “ you just don’t get it bro” to finding ways to invalidate your opinion like “nuh uh! Ur a furry/nsfw artist/zombie/tf2 scout main/genwunner/etc so ur opinion is invalid”
These people end up being more interesting, annoying, and sometimes worse than the people their favorite essay RUclipsr called out.
That's how they've always been lol, they're all vultures even towards each other. Still good background noise in my opinion 😂
The saddest part is how their fans will keep parading around outdated and even outright wrong information for years on end.
Even when the person they attacked had to prove their own innocence because frankly none of them will.

Thank you!! Oh my god!! Bless you for making this!! These stupid video essays have been showing up in my algorithm nowadays and it makes me fume!! They usually talk about people I barely know or care about and other things in pop culture that I don’t care about! I don’t want to watch a video titled “Your favorite show, book, or movie sucks and here’s why.” Let me enjoy my interests in peace! So you didn’t like this show, do you have to make a whole video and share to the world why you didn’t like it?!! That is some next level boredom I can’t imagine!! So once again, I thank you for this video! Video essays have been showing in my algorithm and it’s driving me crazy!!!
same
i saw a TWO hour long video on steven universe and it was like
holy shit
you watched 5 seasons of a show u didnt like and then made a TWOHOUR long video about jfc.. just to say why they didnt even like it whwat
Same, i hate it when people watch those videos instead of just watching the actual show/movie and they act like its their own opinion lmao
I literally had one popping up that had "Gooner" on the dude's eyes.
Like... Masturbating is a crime now to these channels? 😭
“This MothaFucka Right Here”
“Of Course Ima make a part 2! FUCK THIS GU-“
The golden comedy of this man is immaculate
That MoistCritikal impression was good
It's not that hard to do an impression of a average drama youtuber lmao
"The Rise and Downfall of Xx_EpicGamer92_xX"
There is literally a video called "The downfall of Lzz, the most toxic griefer of GTAO". He literally was a brain-dead 16y old with 3k subs 💀
That "Xx" brought me so meny edgy memories of mine
"The darker side of Shitz_Wizrds"
More sus than a character in among us
This is the best video I’ve ever seen man!😂❤ so fkn true
Video essays would be 100% easier to get thru if every single one didn’t have a Born and Raised section💀
“So this guy who has never used social media once in his life is getting cancelled for existing”
Oh yeah! There are actually some people I've literally never watched before ever and from another channel that I've never seen before they'll upload a video talking about that very person I've never watched before and for some reason I'll watch it. Damn you are spot on on this😂
I love seeing people mock SunnyV2
This is your average commentary channel making a toddler fight seem like a nuclear warfare.
I deeply regret and apologize for my recent statement suggesting that Hitler wasn’t bad. This comment was extremely insensitive and disrespectful to the millions of victims of the Holocaust and World War II. It was a grave mistake, and I fully acknowledge the pain it may have caused. I understand now that such a statement is not only historically inaccurate but also harmful. My words do not reflect my true beliefs or understanding of history. Hitler was responsible for immense suffering, genocide, and atrocities that are universally condemned. I am truly sorry for any hurt or offense I caused. I am committed to educating myself further on these matters to ensure I never make such an error again. Thank you for holding me accountable. I am dedicated to making amends and being more mindful and respectful in the future.
