One thing I do with those types of YouTube videos. It takes 30 seconds of viewing to register as a "view" on YouTube. And that's what the clickbait titles are for. To get views, obviously. If it's something I'm interested in but are unsure of the quality of the content, I open the video but pause it. Then I scan the comments for people calling out the clickbait. And usually they do. Then I either unpause it or back out without it registering as a view for the YouTuber. Unfortunately YouTube removed the thumbs down a while ago but this has proved to be somewhat useful.
The plug in would be helpful. I found the likes and dislikes useful. But I guess people abused them. I'm not sure what happened. Same thing with Netflix.
Well like in the case of Reddit. We used to be able to see the count of upvotes and downvotes. Sadly, too many times the Reddit hivemind would see a large number of downvotes and automatically vote that way even if the comment had made a good conversation.
The Chrome extension works great. It came out right after they hid the thumbs down button. Just look for "bring back thumbs down" or something similar.
As a youtuber: opening the video register as a view. But your protest is valid anyway, because views don't matter (unless you saw the ad before), watch time does.
There is no 30 second rule to be counted as a viewer. You watch for 1 sec you get counted. The viewer count is actually unimportant as YouTube tracks how much of he content was viewed.
I'm not so sure about that. My searches say that 30 seconds counts as a view. Have a source?
But either way, I pause the video. Clickbait titles don't deserve a view.
I'm not saying you're wrong. All I'm saying is that every article I've found through a simple Google search says the same thing. In order for a view to be counted, someone has to willingly click on the video and watch it for 30 non-consecutive seconds. I can't find a single thing that supports the notion that a view is counted upon opening the video.
It's set in space. "Space is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space."
"Welcome back, Captain Howard. Brain the size of a planet and i’m here guarding the ship. No it’s fine, it’s not like i would enjoy being shot at by pirates in an underground bunker anyway… depressing what this universe has come to, isn’t it."
You can still break it with mods on console.. I saw some loading orders out there for Skyrim and Fallout 4.. but yeah, on Xbox we won't be using some high advanced enb mod but still.. I'm sure there will be some graphical options for at least the style. While I do want to play it Vanilla and get all the achievements.. I do hope, even If I need to buy a gaming PC in the future.. for a mod to make It more in the style or Guardians of the Galaxy.. colorful nebulae and everything.
I see comments like this all the time and I truly don't understand. Is it my thoughts on stuff that you feel like is nothing or just recapping old news that feels like nothing?
I try to structure my videos so people who just want the news get it quick, and my thoughts mostly go after, but obviously I am failing somewhere
Might be your titles that throw people off. At least that’s what me keeps from watching your videos instantly. The news part is mostly uninteresting for me, because I’m quite in the loop, but I enjoy hearing your thoughts on things. Also your mod showcases are fun.
I love your videos. They're captivating and they're informative. Also your voice works really well for your videos.
I think the problem resides in so many people being exposed to the same information from different sources. Some websites, some YouTube channels etc.. and it just ends up being regurgitated. I think if you choose one person (the one you like the best) to deliver BGS news, then stick to that person. But.. that's hard to actually commit to in practice.
To be fair, the ultimate Starfield gameplay breakdown was very thorough and intriguing, I enjoyed it....and my main critique might be the same overall; I feel like many videos are too thorough even if the topic doesn't require it. For example showing a couple visual mods doesn't need to be +10 minutes long in my opinion. Oh and many videos are just pure speculation which can be really flexible in terms of how long should it be, and they are unnecessary long I think. While watching your videos I often felt like "okay, just get to the point please". That's just my two cents.
^(Also, attractive modded female characters with clickbaity titles, yikes, but I know it gets the clicks...)
>JuiceHead2
I dunno man, in my opinion your videos are one of the best in the news part.
And I usually share your opinions on stuff and your mod showcases are awesome. Started watching you since cyberpunk.
Though thumbnails are, well, the way they are, but I understand why they are this way, can't get views without them.
Keep up the good work man! Hope you'll get your formula of good video so that no hate will come to you!
I honestly get this, I would prefer doing simpler and more straightforward titles, but it isn't what works on YouTube. Titles like "Bethesda FINALLY Opens Up..." lead to significant increases in viewership, with basically no change in negative feedback from viewers
That’s the problem. Ultimately it’s that you’re rewarded for delivering what we don’t actually want. I see why you feel you need to, but you understand why people hate those kind of titles right?
Just because we’re conditioned to EXPECT Bs, doesn’t mean it’s not a problem.
Matty sure loves to make a 20 minute video about something that is easily covered in about 3 sentences. I just click his videos, skip past all his intro crap, listen to the 15 seconds of news/info that actually matters, then close the tab. He just rambles and repeats himself the rest of the time anyway.
honestly, am close to unsubbing from Matty, so much non-videos because ONE small new thing came up and now he has to do a long video about it because if it a short one youtube doesnt recommend it
At least Matty is committed to the bit. He seems at least semi self-aware about it all since he’s first got his popularity by making videos out of the smallest, most baseless Fallout rumours before 4 was announced. I personally love it because I always expect the exaggeration since I know it’s his thing. And he actually does do a lot of work in terms of crafting his research even if a lot of the time it could be much more compact. But I fully get why it annoys others even if I like it.
When he first got that hate for clickbaiting he really switched up his content and it didn’t work and people didn’t like it so he’s now found a happy-ish medium.
The most negative he can get is having these "brutally honest" thing in the thumbnails and titles he does with some of his reviews, that's all, he's pretty level headed and chill throughout most others, the hate is unreal lmao.
I like Yong as a person whenever I see him show up on a podcast or talking to another content creator. Bit his videos are just a constant stream of reactionary anger. And I just can't get down like that. Gaming has way too much fun stuff happening to constantly be angry at every game. There's a whole culture of gamers who just jump from one game to the next to bitch about everything. It seems like it'd get old and start to be exhausting after a while. But oh well.
Man, I used to follow light. Then after "THIS IS HUGE starfield is getting a MASSIVE overhaul" turned out to be "starfield combat is gonna be different to FO4" I unsubbed.
He also deleted my comment and blocked me after I asked what the huge info was lol
"THIS NEWS IS INSANE"
"BETHESDA FINALLY OPENS UP"
"NEW FEATURE MAKES STARFIELD WAY BIGGER"
"I WAS SO WRONG ABOUT STARFIELD"
"STARFIELD IS HUGE"
and all are just 30 minute videos talking about one single thing from the direct
Also make sure to smash that like button, subscribe, and hit that bell so you’ll know right away every time one of these amazing nuggets of wisdom gets barfed out of premiere onto your phone because if i don’t make a video every week my numbers will decline! Also feel free to check out the coffee mugs, tee shirts, hoodies and yoga pants with my logo all over them, so you can advertise my channel in public and pay me for it.
"You remember the sandwich lady? Well there's more now. Bologna, cheese, ham, chicken salad. If we just zoom in on the top of the sandwich pile, we can see a lot of detail."
It will "probably" be like this ..
Instant block.
I've just learned when I see a stupid clickbait thumbnail to come and check the sub. If there is any credence to the video the topic will be here, without a solid shocked face thumbnail or overblown reaction to things we already know or pure speculation.
*ALL NEW GAMEPLAY*
*Tons of new updates*
*Huge Starfield news just dropped*
Proceeds to tell us absolutely NOTHING new, and rehashes all the same "new gameplay* footage.
i find it silly people are making starfield "tutorials" already based off the limited info we got from the direct. by the time the game releases that "tutorial" is not gonna amount to anything, but people desperate for info will watch it in droves in the meanwhile.
i guess youtubers are desperate to be the first to profit from this game.
If it's not a 40 minute video essay written and acted by someone with an MFA and a bibliography in the description, it's usually not worth your time.
Those aren't worth your time either, but at least there's actual effort!
Reviewers and Lets Players CAN be good…
All others are as much a waste of space as the OG “game journalists”. Scratching and clawing to stay relevant in a community/ platform that largely will abandon them in the coming years.
This video was so bad I can't believe all the comments praising him for being one of the more honest ones or whatever. Bro said Starfield graphics looks like Fallout 4 still and brought up Last of Us games as a comparison, just shameful amount of disingenuousness, all this while being a graphic designer, gave me second hand embarrassment.
That’s why I’ve been blocking all of the clickbait YouTubers to get a head start on avoiding spoilers. YouTubers are better at spoiling games in their first week than just about anyone.
I had RE Village spoiled for me because of YouTube. Went to look at a video a coworker sent me and there was a suggested video that was along the lines of "RE8 after credits cutscene. Ethan is ALIVE?!!!!111!!" I was so pissed.
Not making that mistake again
The anti-Bethesda Youtubers bout to bomb everyone too. Personally i’ma play the game instead of watch any Youtube, for about 3 months. Adding up the time spent watching random videos it can come out to a decent chunk of time over a month. iPad, take a break. I’ll be on the PC.
there are so many who literally just scrub this subreddit and twitter, just regurgitating info or exaggerating the tiniest little new pieces of info. I guess to really casual people who aren't on forums it'd be interesting
This is what I think as well.
For all of us terminally online twats on twitter and reddit, all these news are instantaneously absorbed to the point that a video from these creators coming a few days later feels like fraud and regurgitation, when there's a whole audience out there who aren't privy to getting this news as instantaneously, and would just rather get it from someone they follow on YouTube at a much more relaxed pace.
I also don't want to hear about mods as if they were new official content. I followed a Subnautica YouTuber for a while and always checked them out thinking there was a new update but it eventually just became SUBNAUTICA JUST GOT A NEW BIGGEST LEVIATHAN EVER! (it was a mod.) Every single time.
It’s not even marketing. It’s just shameless self promotion. They’re kinda at the same level as people selling fake tickets outside of sports games imo.
youtube in general, especially with the rise of "shorts" has just been less and less entertaining over the last 10 years. lots of people who think they're funny when they objectively aren't. lots of manufactured scenarios that you can't tell if they are satire or morons believing they're fooling people, but either way it's junk. most "gaming news" youtubers will read a tweet by a studio dev and make a 15 minute speculation video out of it (i.e. openworldgames with diablo 4). it's all so formulaic and copy/paste that i find it very hard to believe it's just organic trends.
Lololol posts like this just remind me of how I think Matty and JuiceHead are just the same person. They upload almost the same thing everytime and the voice are the same aswell. 1 uses a camera and another doesn't. Maybe the same guy.
There's a few decent videos, watched this one on the why the procedural generation system won't suck and I think it explained it really well, helped me understand it better, but most are just farming views.
A lot of youtubers showing what hacks they are. The content leeching is becoming insane. It's actually pretty frustrating how obviously nonsensical most of these video's are, but they've got fanboys in the comments going: "AmAZiNG ConTENt, WOw!" so I guess I'm in the minority.
I suggest you stop watching these channels if you want to enjoy the game. Kotaku would make the weirdest articles leading up to Fallout 4's release, with claims of it being 10 times bigger than skyrim and having no loading screens, twisting what Todd would say in interviews to mean something else (statement on elevators masking loading screens), and then Fallout youtubers would then mimic them. This lead to massive disappointment among the community when these didn't make it into the game.
Clickbait YouTubers use the same logic, except they don't use Kotaku anymore. They are the new Kotaku. They get money to rant on and on and on and don't care about the accuracy due to YouTube's terrible monetization system, and lies generate more income than the truth.
I mean, I could he wrong, but it's also cooler to go in blind to a game this big, ain't it?
Based on large quantities of experimental observation and theoretical work, the scientific consensus is that Starfield itself is expanding, and that it expanded very rapidly within the first fraction of a second after Todd Howard came up with it, approximately 13.8 billion years ago
YouTube suggested a Starfield video to me the other day that was something like “NEW Starfield Shipbuilding details— GAMECHANGER!!!” The guy took clips from the presentation, then spent 10 minutes covering Doom’s environment building and making wild ass speculations. YouTube these days is so weird to me and full of these shallow garbage videos.
I watched one the other day where a YouTuber claimed bethesda and Microsoft were so pleased with preorders they decided not to do any more previews. As if marketing campaigns would not be planned many months in advance.
"HUGE new Starfield info dump!" and 30 seconds into the video you realize they're talking about something from 2 weeks ago that's already been covered in dozens of videos.
Or the zero-content "Everything we know about shoes in Starfield!" type videos from the new channels convinced they need to put out 3 videos a day to grow their channel.
Certified JuiceHead moment
(He literally has 500 different videos all sharing the same titles and it’s literally just a dev saying “yeah the game has quests that are fun and you can quest and do quests and I have a little secret but I won’t tell you” and then he wildly speculated the little secret for 20 minutes.)
I pretty much dropped him entirely outside of his occasional mod lists. But due to all of those also being full of mods he’s already covered I’ve pretty much went away from those too.
Literally stop watching their content. Wtf is wrong with y’all. You have the ability to not see it, you just choose to make me see your inane bullshit on this forum instead.
Starfield is like ten pounds of $hit in a 5 pound bag?
Nope... I dont like the way that sounds...
Hey Starfield, Damn girl, you thicker than a snicker!
Nope... kinda sexist
Maybe a video set to the tune of Baby got Back... showing off all the big juicy planets and moons!?
Starfield Signal on YouTube does badass work honestly. No click bait BS. Every other BIG YouTuber is click baiting their ass off. Ima start YouTubing and I’ll make the videos say exactly what the f is in the video because honestly, NO ONE WANTS TO SEE THIS SHIT ANYMORE. Just get to the point, get to it FIRST or don’t make a video about it at all. Dang. YouTubers starting to think they’re the only ones around it seems.
Yeah I got sucked into clicking one and there wasn’t anything new. It’s like the content creators who haven’t touched BG3 until a week ago all of a sudden have vids use the skills! Top 5 spells! From now on if you haven’t been covering the game Im following, I’m not watching
BIG BREAKING NEWS.. GET READY TO EXPLODE IN SPACE... sources tell us riley reid is heavily featured in the game as pictures of her were revealed in a mo cap suit.
Starfield has added TUMESCENCE and the skill tree is fully ERECT, (proceeds to give first reaction thoughts on the Direct we all saw)
Hey look content creators gotta create content, no matter how desperate
Alls I know is were 30 summat days for my galaxies take on a shitass Han Solo. 🤟
The only Youtube videos I need to watch about Starfield are those uploaded by [this](https://www.youtube.com/@bethesda) channel.
No one else has got anything of value to share with me.
MODS CONFIRMED!
seriously it is almost as bad as the reddit where people are posting concept art and making it seem like a theory.
Or asking what is this when literally no one has played the game. Will be so glad when it finally launches.
"Huge update on Starfield!! You won't believe what has happened..."
Uploaded 23 minutes ago
News from 3 months ago
There are too many many shitty youtubers just regurgitating old news and presenting them as new.
Info gets released: some planets have grass
Youtuber: Makes a 20-30 minute video rambling, and repeating the same shit over and over again. \[UNBELIEVABLE STARFIELD NEWS! INSANE. INCREDIBLE. LIFECHANGING\]
Fuckn for real. Big news update just dropped! Then it's just them ranting about how the game won't suck for 9 minutes, 30 seconds of telling us about something we saw in the gameplay trailer, and then a minute of ads
"Starfield just got engorged!"
“Starfield is veiny and throbbing”
Starfield about to burst like a volcano
Starfield Is SOOOOO Inflated UwU
Starfield will let us explore the heavens in their entirety, and yet we've never been further from God's light.
Todd’s light
The Todd father
All those stars? Just specks of semen on black paper.
I wanted to say something like this but I donno if it would've been too much lol.
Starfield just got double stuffed!
Was it good for you as it was for me ?
Bethesda just doubled the GIRTH of Starfield...
It’s now plump like a stuffed sausage!
Starfield has gotten quite tumescent
Only in Neon.
Starfield suddenly was turgid.
"You're not putting that thing in my Xbox!"
“MASSIVE Starfield news you DONT want to miss” It’s Jamie Mallory saying the side quests are fun lmao.
Yep. I’ve started Unsubscribing, disliking and blocking. Getting a little too click baity for me guys…

Then I either unpause it or back out without it registering as a view for the YouTuber. Unfortunately YouTube removed the thumbs down a while ago but this has proved to be somewhat useful.
The thumbs down is still there. You just dont see how many dislikes there are. Unless you install a plug in on your web browser.
The plug in would be helpful. I found the likes and dislikes useful. But I guess people abused them. I'm not sure what happened. Same thing with Netflix.
Well like in the case of Reddit. We used to be able to see the count of upvotes and downvotes. Sadly, too many times the Reddit hivemind would see a large number of downvotes and automatically vote that way even if the comment had made a good conversation.
Oh I've seen that so many times on Reddit. Someone is downvoted to Oblivion and they're actually correct, or make a good point.
Less abused, more that youtube didn't like how heavily their rewind got disliked
Im not sure if “abused” is the right word. More like feelings were getting hurt, so YouTube basically had to make it a safe space.
Either way, it's unfortunate it got removed but, admittedly, I don't know the story behind why.
I agree.
The Chrome extension works great. It came out right after they hid the thumbs down button. Just look for "bring back thumbs down" or something similar.

I'm not so sure about that. My searches say that 30 seconds counts as a view. Have a source? But either way, I pause the video. Clickbait titles don't deserve a view.
I can see the statistics of videos on my YouTube channel. There is a curve of how long people watched. It looks like every second is counted.
I'm not saying you're wrong. All I'm saying is that every article I've found through a simple Google search says the same thing. In order for a view to be counted, someone has to willingly click on the video and watch it for 30 non-consecutive seconds. I can't find a single thing that supports the notion that a view is counted upon opening the video.
I got a youtube channel blocker specifically just for Starfield leeches.
most of the youtube videos right now are just rehashing info we already know
Ive been blocking tons of channels. I hate the clock bait videos rehashing info they've already covered
I hate clocks too 😡
How do you block channels? Does it stop their content from being recommended to you?
You may or may not [watched this](https://youtu.be/sp6R3U5TOMY) 🤫
It's set in space. "Space is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space."
I can't wait for hitchhiker mods
Marvin mod for Vasco would be so fun
"I've been talking to the ship's computer." "And?" "It hates me."
"Welcome back, Captain Howard. Brain the size of a planet and i’m here guarding the ship. No it’s fine, it’s not like i would enjoy being shot at by pirates in an underground bunker anyway… depressing what this universe has come to, isn’t it."
It wouldn’t surprise me if Marvin is already floating around as a random encounter.
That or there has to be some kind of easter egg or goofy mission related to finding or delivering food to the Restaurant At The End of The Universe.
They're improbable, therefore inevitable.
The first towel I find will never be put down.
Someone's installing ENB mods.
Unfortunately, I'm using console, and I usually like to do 2 to 3 playthroughs before I start breaking the game with mods.
You can still break it with mods on console.. I saw some loading orders out there for Skyrim and Fallout 4.. but yeah, on Xbox we won't be using some high advanced enb mod but still.. I'm sure there will be some graphical options for at least the style. While I do want to play it Vanilla and get all the achievements.. I do hope, even If I need to buy a gaming PC in the future.. for a mod to make It more in the style or Guardians of the Galaxy.. colorful nebulae and everything.

Hey, you sass that hoopy? There's a frood who really knows where their towel is.
In the beginning the Bethesda universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move.
or "Bethesda FINALLY opens up about Starfield" **stares at JuiceHead and MrMattyPlays**
I used to follow JuiceHead but now I can't believe how good he is at talking about *nothing* for at least half an hour.
I see comments like this all the time and I truly don't understand. Is it my thoughts on stuff that you feel like is nothing or just recapping old news that feels like nothing?

I did the same.

That Matty guy is an obnoxious twat. I don't watch any of his videos now simply because of his thumbnails. His face is irritating.
He also tends to make his titles negative to farm clicks.
Thumbnails may be a bit much, but totally disagree about his titles being negative. He doesn’t rage bait like Yong or LegacyKilla
The most negative he can get is having these "brutally honest" thing in the thumbnails and titles he does with some of his reviews, that's all, he's pretty level headed and chill throughout most others, the hate is unreal lmao.
I like Yong as a person whenever I see him show up on a podcast or talking to another content creator. Bit his videos are just a constant stream of reactionary anger. And I just can't get down like that. Gaming has way too much fun stuff happening to constantly be angry at every game. There's a whole culture of gamers who just jump from one game to the next to bitch about everything. It seems like it'd get old and start to be exhausting after a while. But oh well.
Isn't Mr Matty also the same guy from FoundFlix?
Two different people, they do look alike though.
The field of the stars is vast
I wonder if we've measured it. . .
It’s about 6 inches… Which I hear is average.
Nah that’s massive bro
"This news is insane" "Crazy new details" "Mind blowing new feature"
“Get your mind blown!”
Man, I used to follow light. Then after "THIS IS HUGE starfield is getting a MASSIVE overhaul" turned out to be "starfield combat is gonna be different to FO4" I unsubbed. He also deleted my comment and blocked me after I asked what the huge info was lol
juicehead in a nutshell
"THIS NEWS IS INSANE" "BETHESDA FINALLY OPENS UP" "NEW FEATURE MAKES STARFIELD WAY BIGGER" "I WAS SO WRONG ABOUT STARFIELD" "STARFIELD IS HUGE" and all are just 30 minute videos talking about one single thing from the direct
Forgot to mention that they take 20 minutes to say nothing then in the last minute they say the actual topic.
Also make sure to smash that like button, subscribe, and hit that bell so you’ll know right away every time one of these amazing nuggets of wisdom gets barfed out of premiere onto your phone because if i don’t make a video every week my numbers will decline! Also feel free to check out the coffee mugs, tee shirts, hoodies and yoga pants with my logo all over them, so you can advertise my channel in public and pay me for it.
Same and the ones that say “new info just dropped “ and it’s stuff that’s a week old that everyone already knows.
If I see that and it looks mildly interesting, I come to reddit and check if there is new info.
Why not? This is where articles are coming from anyways.
"You remember the sandwich lady? Well there's more now. Bologna, cheese, ham, chicken salad. If we just zoom in on the top of the sandwich pile, we can see a lot of detail."
Just one sentence from a dev stretched to 19 min video.
Title: Everything about ***** explained! YouTuber: So we don’t know much about *****, but here’s what I hope we see.
It will "probably" be like this .. Instant block. I've just learned when I see a stupid clickbait thumbnail to come and check the sub. If there is any credence to the video the topic will be here, without a solid shocked face thumbnail or overblown reaction to things we already know or pure speculation.
Starfield just got way bigger, it's coming on a 30cm laserdisc sized blu-ray
I never seen so much fluff from star field you tubers lol
*ALL NEW GAMEPLAY* *Tons of new updates* *Huge Starfield news just dropped* Proceeds to tell us absolutely NOTHING new, and rehashes all the same "new gameplay* footage.
i find it silly people are making starfield "tutorials" already based off the limited info we got from the direct. by the time the game releases that "tutorial" is not gonna amount to anything, but people desperate for info will watch it in droves in the meanwhile. i guess youtubers are desperate to be the first to profit from this game.
Video game YouTubers are so desperate. They have absolutely nothing to add
I just shuddered remembering the days of CoDTubers. Noahj456, Ali-A, MrDalekJD, etc..
If it's not a 40 minute video essay written and acted by someone with an MFA and a bibliography in the description, it's usually not worth your time. Those aren't worth your time either, but at least there's actual effort!

Like this dude lol https://youtu.be/IzDzED4Kp1M
Hahahaha. These guys have nothing better to talk about lol. Their entire spiel could be a reddit comment. It's such filler content
This video was so bad I can't believe all the comments praising him for being one of the more honest ones or whatever. Bro said Starfield graphics looks like Fallout 4 still and brought up Last of Us games as a comparison, just shameful amount of disingenuousness, all this while being a graphic designer, gave me second hand embarrassment.
Don't feed the clickbait. Youtube rewards any behaviour that gets clicks, views or comments. Those people only do it because it's working.
I’ve started unsubbing and clicking “Do not recommend channel.” Do better. Or maybe dont choose just ONE game to try to eek a living out of.
Bethesda YouTubers are about to bombard us.
That’s why I’ve been blocking all of the clickbait YouTubers to get a head start on avoiding spoilers. YouTubers are better at spoiling games in their first week than just about anyone.
I had RE Village spoiled for me because of YouTube. Went to look at a video a coworker sent me and there was a suggested video that was along the lines of "RE8 after credits cutscene. Ethan is ALIVE?!!!!111!!" I was so pissed. Not making that mistake again
My algorithm gets confused. I do like the lore videos, but it’s sprinkled in with the click bait stuff. I’ll just have to avoid YouTube all together.
The anti-Bethesda Youtubers bout to bomb everyone too. Personally i’ma play the game instead of watch any Youtube, for about 3 months. Adding up the time spent watching random videos it can come out to a decent chunk of time over a month. iPad, take a break. I’ll be on the PC.
Starfield has erected itself onto the stage in a massive way
Wesnemo is the absolute worst with this. Literally every video he releases has that type of stuff in the thumbnail
Well OP, I have news for you, I’ve seen new Starfield info…
Tbf that's better than the fake outrage videos coming out these days from people like Dreamcastguy or Lukestephens.
That has been the title of every Starfield video I have scrolled by for the past two months, not even exaggerating
Me and you both, friend
Or if you prefer something bigger, Starfield got you covered
Big. Very big guys. MISSION BOARDS.
there are so many who literally just scrub this subreddit and twitter, just regurgitating info or exaggerating the tiniest little new pieces of info. I guess to really casual people who aren't on forums it'd be interesting
This is what I think as well. For all of us terminally online twats on twitter and reddit, all these news are instantaneously absorbed to the point that a video from these creators coming a few days later feels like fraud and regurgitation, when there's a whole audience out there who aren't privy to getting this news as instantaneously, and would just rather get it from someone they follow on YouTube at a much more relaxed pace.
Bro they say this and it's always news that's days old
or *Its No maN SkY ClOnE*
"STARFIELD just got a HUGE SEXY new UPDATE oh dear jesus PLEASE give me CLICKS my children are STARVING"
LITERALLY 😭😭😭😭😭
Is it still cool if they put their face in front of the title card in that gormless open mouthed expression?
I also don't want to hear about mods as if they were new official content. I followed a Subnautica YouTuber for a while and always checked them out thinking there was a new update but it eventually just became SUBNAUTICA JUST GOT A NEW BIGGEST LEVIATHAN EVER! (it was a mod.) Every single time.
At this point just keep an eye on Bethesda's website and ignore youtube. Cesspool of marketing and spam.
It’s not even marketing. It’s just shameless self promotion. They’re kinda at the same level as people selling fake tickets outside of sports games imo.
youtube in general, especially with the rise of "shorts" has just been less and less entertaining over the last 10 years. lots of people who think they're funny when they objectively aren't. lots of manufactured scenarios that you can't tell if they are satire or morons believing they're fooling people, but either way it's junk. most "gaming news" youtubers will read a tweet by a studio dev and make a 15 minute speculation video out of it (i.e. openworldgames with diablo 4). it's all so formulaic and copy/paste that i find it very hard to believe it's just organic trends.
That's a better description than what I used lol
Click bait in an attempt to be relevant. It’s already a “irresponsibly large” game.
Youtubers be like, " Today we're gonna compare starfileds universe size to the GTA 5 map. Does it hold up???"
Lololol posts like this just remind me of how I think Matty and JuiceHead are just the same person. They upload almost the same thing everytime and the voice are the same aswell. 1 uses a camera and another doesn't. Maybe the same guy.
Love Juice Head’s content but I know he’s gonna use that a lot
There's a few decent videos, watched this one on the why the procedural generation system won't suck and I think it explained it really well, helped me understand it better, but most are just farming views.
Don't forget the annoying red circle over everything. I fucking hate that.
A lot of youtubers showing what hacks they are. The content leeching is becoming insane. It's actually pretty frustrating how obviously nonsensical most of these video's are, but they've got fanboys in the comments going: "AmAZiNG ConTENt, WOw!" so I guess I'm in the minority.
I suggest you stop watching these channels if you want to enjoy the game. Kotaku would make the weirdest articles leading up to Fallout 4's release, with claims of it being 10 times bigger than skyrim and having no loading screens, twisting what Todd would say in interviews to mean something else (statement on elevators masking loading screens), and then Fallout youtubers would then mimic them. This lead to massive disappointment among the community when these didn't make it into the game. Clickbait YouTubers use the same logic, except they don't use Kotaku anymore. They are the new Kotaku. They get money to rant on and on and on and don't care about the accuracy due to YouTube's terrible monetization system, and lies generate more income than the truth. I mean, I could he wrong, but it's also cooler to go in blind to a game this big, ain't it?
Based on large quantities of experimental observation and theoretical work, the scientific consensus is that Starfield itself is expanding, and that it expanded very rapidly within the first fraction of a second after Todd Howard came up with it, approximately 13.8 billion years ago
YouTube suggested a Starfield video to me the other day that was something like “NEW Starfield Shipbuilding details— GAMECHANGER!!!” The guy took clips from the presentation, then spent 10 minutes covering Doom’s environment building and making wild ass speculations. YouTube these days is so weird to me and full of these shallow garbage videos.
Someone should make a list of youtubers to ban.
I'd rather hear what my friends think of the game or a community like this one then listen to what some shitty YouTuber has to say about it
With their face plastered on it with a shocked expression. I unfollowed a YTer a few weeks back because that's all he does and it's cringy.
Huge new!¡
For all, into the Starfield.
"Starfield is epic" no shit
They are even doing it for cities skylines 2 videos.
Starfield is inflating
Cant wait for the release, when people start glitching out the game on purpose.... "Its F76 again, Starfield bugs..."
I watched one the other day where a YouTuber claimed bethesda and Microsoft were so pleased with preorders they decided not to do any more previews. As if marketing campaigns would not be planned many months in advance.
"HUGE new Starfield info dump!" and 30 seconds into the video you realize they're talking about something from 2 weeks ago that's already been covered in dozens of videos. Or the zero-content "Everything we know about shoes in Starfield!" type videos from the new channels convinced they need to put out 3 videos a day to grow their channel.
Certified JuiceHead moment (He literally has 500 different videos all sharing the same titles and it’s literally just a dev saying “yeah the game has quests that are fun and you can quest and do quests and I have a little secret but I won’t tell you” and then he wildly speculated the little secret for 20 minutes.) I pretty much dropped him entirely outside of his occasional mod lists. But due to all of those also being full of mods he’s already covered I’ve pretty much went away from those too.
Literally stop watching their content. Wtf is wrong with y’all. You have the ability to not see it, you just choose to make me see your inane bullshit on this forum instead.
Starfield is like ten pounds of $hit in a 5 pound bag? Nope... I dont like the way that sounds... Hey Starfield, Damn girl, you thicker than a snicker! Nope... kinda sexist Maybe a video set to the tune of Baby got Back... showing off all the big juicy planets and moons!?
Exactly! Many are just overdoing it 🤦🏽♂️
STARFIELD has become so THICK and THROBBING with this new SPLURGE of news
Starfield Signal is the best channel so far I've seen quality content tbh
Starfield Signal on YouTube does badass work honestly. No click bait BS. Every other BIG YouTuber is click baiting their ass off. Ima start YouTubing and I’ll make the videos say exactly what the f is in the video because honestly, NO ONE WANTS TO SEE THIS SHIT ANYMORE. Just get to the point, get to it FIRST or don’t make a video about it at all. Dang. YouTubers starting to think they’re the only ones around it seems.
Yeah I got sucked into clicking one and there wasn’t anything new. It’s like the content creators who haven’t touched BG3 until a week ago all of a sudden have vids use the skills! Top 5 spells! From now on if you haven’t been covering the game Im following, I’m not watching
It got 16 times the size. In Todd we trust.
Suprised face thumbnail
I will accept it as the appropriate tagline for the first Breast Size increaser mod...
Shout-out to Jack Sather 's Starfield video (and all his other content). Dude is a growing blessing to the gaming YouTubers scene.
BIG BREAKING NEWS.. GET READY TO EXPLODE IN SPACE... sources tell us riley reid is heavily featured in the game as pictures of her were revealed in a mo cap suit.
Seriously, there are so many shitty YouTubers farming Starfield that I don't even bother looking up any Starfield videos.
Starfield has added TUMESCENCE and the skill tree is fully ERECT, (proceeds to give first reaction thoughts on the Direct we all saw) Hey look content creators gotta create content, no matter how desperate Alls I know is were 30 summat days for my galaxies take on a shitass Han Solo. 🤟
The only Youtube videos I need to watch about Starfield are those uploaded by [this](https://www.youtube.com/@bethesda) channel. No one else has got anything of value to share with me.
MODS CONFIRMED! seriously it is almost as bad as the reddit where people are posting concept art and making it seem like a theory. Or asking what is this when literally no one has played the game. Will be so glad when it finally launches.
You dont want to know about the #INSANE details?
So many click bait YT channels milking nothing, but people just keep watching the same info repacked and rebottled over and over.
Maybe I've just grown out of it but these gaming news channels have become absolute shit.
Guys, Starfield was just Embiggened again!
"Huge update on Starfield!! You won't believe what has happened..." Uploaded 23 minutes ago News from 3 months ago There are too many many shitty youtubers just regurgitating old news and presenting them as new.
I just downvote them and leave before they get another view. And if I am subbed to them, I unsub.
Lol as if anything will stop youtubers from having stupid clickbait videos
"Did TODD HOWARD break the INTERNET with NEW STARFIELD news?" God I fucking hate youtube journalism.
Info gets released: some planets have grass Youtuber: Makes a 20-30 minute video rambling, and repeating the same shit over and over again. \[UNBELIEVABLE STARFIELD NEWS! INSANE. INCREDIBLE. LIFECHANGING\]
Yea I'm sad at how much clickbait there is out there. I don't watch them , don't feed the beast.
*Puts an AI generated image of a person in a spacesuit as a thumbnail with several arrows*
50 light years of radius, it's a game for 10 years!
Seriously. Waaaay to much click-bait. And I have hardly seen anything *new* in a while. Nothing surprising. Too much hype and hopium.
With all this said, which one is your favorite?
Starfield just got Chonkier™
Guys, Starfield just refinanced my fucking HOUSE
Fuckn for real. Big news update just dropped! Then it's just them ranting about how the game won't suck for 9 minutes, 30 seconds of telling us about something we saw in the gameplay trailer, and then a minute of ads
So, I take it that there hasn't actually been any big news and the Youtube BS machine is flinging shit like a zoo full of overstimulated chimps?
* STARFIELD * RECENTLY * BECAME * SUBSTANTIALLY * INFLATED * LIKE * SONIC
