I love long-form videos that tell information and stories. Documentaries about most any topics, especially ones that last an hour or more, are my bread and butter. But when I’m using YouTube on my TV, I can’t tell from thumbnails what the quality of a channel is. Sometimes I find gold, but other times it’s obvious they’re using an AI voice over or AI imagery and I immediately turn it off. I’m so tired of trudging through the slop, even though it’s just beginning.
So for now, I figure I’ll check with y’all - do you have any preferred/recommended channels that make the sort of video I’m looking for, that are still human-made? I’d love to hear about them.
IF you like warhammer 40k or want to get into the lore (it’s god damn insanely deep and interesting) there are a few VERY good videos that are multiple hours long that pretty much come out on a weekly basis. https://www.youtube.com/@Luetin09 is my favourite. if I have nothing to do one a weekend afternoon i’ll just put his vids on while I do some dev work or play around with my pc configs. each video is easily 2+ hours. and it’s just lore.
I don’t even know how to play WH40k, I don’t own any of the minitures, but damn do I know all the lore because of his vids.
Luetin, Arbitor Ian, Adeptus Ridiculous, The Remembrancer, Baldermort, many more…all making long form (30 min plus) videos put together solely with human effort. There’s a lot of AI slop in the 40K space, but also a lot of really creative people making great stuff.
