This just reminded me of a joke Internet Historian made recently where he says that people are taking time to watch his video that they would normally spend watching a 3 hour video essay that basically just says "good game is good", and then he cuts to a fake clip from such a video essay where it's gameplay of Fallout with a voiceover saying "Fallout New Vegas is actually the only 'based' Bethesda game" in like a soyboy voice.

I felt extremely called out by that joke because I have watched a number of videos extolling the virtues of F:NV, some of which are definitely pushing 3 hours.
