As a long time viewer (probably Langley days but I used a lot of NCIX vids to build my first computer) I gotta say I think I stuck around because the passion. Sure the channel is more pop than hard details but it appeals to me just fine. The early days made me feel like a friend who was being shared a cool tech toy that you just got. Linus and the team's passion is what drives this channel and LMG knows that. It's why Brandon's and Anthony's videos are so beloved in the comments. Not to mention the other great host's. Back in the day that passion was still there. Video production quality be damned. If Alex wants to show me (the audience) his crazy idea with using some unconventional material, recorded on his laptop camera I will probably watch it! Hell even the new guy showing us his coffee 'ritual' was bang on why this channel does so well. Doesn't matter the subject. If you show passion, the audience will connect. It's probably why sponsor spots & videos get so much hate too.

@hoofhearted4 Жыл бұрын

Agreed. I don't watch everything they put out (between all their channels, its a lot), and while not all of it interests me, i do still watch things i wouldnt otherwise, simply because i like the team and the channel. I get that a lot of the stuff they put out is just to meet their quota, to use a sponsorship, to generate some revenue, so honestly, its arguable that the majority of the videos they do wont be bangers, its just filler, but the bangers they do have are the best. Like the house project, the Intel Extreme upgrade or the production facility visits (or at least thats what i enjoy the most). i guess if anything, they put out enough content that im sure theres almost always something someone is excited to watch.

Either they show real passion or they are good at faking it. No, I know they're passionate, but you cannot be genuinely exited in every video if you make videos all the time. Some acting is required. But their passion also shows from how much effort they put into most if not every video, in research et cetera.

Oura: They left it with saying 'we pronounced it wrong and they didn't like that'.. 1. He's said it tons on WAN etc with no pushback, if it was that important they would have said so in their contract. 2. All the comments were very negative because of the terrible subscription+ device costs and therefore bad optics for Oura, which leads me to believe.. 3. it was down voted SO HARD that it wasn't going to be good for metrics anyways so LTT wasn't against a scapegoat to pull it.

The premade sponsor spots are probably my least favourite part of LTT these days. I liked when the sponsor spot was part of the shoot and you could tell they were reading it off the prompter there and then. The cut away to pre-recorded just feels off most of the time. It used to actually be a segue into them delivering the spot instead of just saying the line and the tone never remotely matching between the cuts. I guess it makes things easier from a production point of view, but as a watcher, it just feels disconnected every single time.

@@KHudso To be clear, I have no issue with the sponsor spots themselves. I get why they exist, and good on LMG for trying to make them at least fun and interesting. Sometimes it's even something I might be interested in, if it's not a US & Canada only thing. My issue is only with the current method of delivery. The smarmy line with the cut to pre-recorded spots that never mesh with the delivery of the video to that point. It's jarring and feels so much more disingenuous then the former method of doing it as part of the video. I don't begrudge a company trying to make sure the money keeps rolling in. A company that doesn't ain't going to last long. It's all about the chintzy feeling nature of the delivery these days.
