Does everyone just think they can make a living playing games? Trying to search for Diablo 4 info gets you nothing but mountains of useless clickbait youtube videos. Gotta waste my time jumping thru the video just to find out the guy is dumber about the game than I am.
Like I get it, YouTube is the only place you can monetize your “game knowledge”, but still… Why are there are only like two sites with build guides and info? And those two sites don’t even have community builds, its just a couple guides written by some l33t dude we are suppose to trust. Why is there no useful discussion forums, discords, or at least something not in video format? If people care about becoming gaming influencers so much why can’t we at least come out with a new monetization platform that doesn’t suck and has a dislike button.
Anyone else sharing my rage?
As someone who’s not an auditory/visual learner I feel personally attacked by this. I skipped class and stayed home and read the book/notes for a reason.
I agree. I much prefer text stuff. It’s hard deny the shift though. Looking at TikTok as an extreme example, a whole generation is getting their news from someone doing a dance while two other videos play of cutting playdough. I’m not saying it’s wrong, but I do think it’s really hurting our ability as a species to exist without attention hacking.
If you’ve managed to exist outside of that band of information exchange, I commend you.
