pannenkoek2012 is, like. youtube essay outsider art. no breaks between chapters. constantly repeating himself for the sake of being comprehensive. Says "So I just wanted to clarify that" over and over and over. wants a video to be a watchable explanation with jokes and also a standard reference for all invisible walls in a game. the most precise, un-handwavy explanations of anything ever, with constant asides and assurances for our comprehension as if he is lecturing a math course. absolutely ignores the past decade of "long youtube essay" tropes. no framing device, no twists, no final words to wrap things up into overarching themes, no attempt at tying this into a larger emotional / cultural phenomenon, no acknowledgement of the speedrunning-as-narrative industrial complex (summoningsalt et al). did you know he never used to have jokes at all. way back when, before and even a little after 2016's "watch for falling rocks 0xA" the comments were surprised whenever there was any levity in his explanations, or anything other than pure, straightforward, encyclopedic knowledge.

one of the most important to ever do it. has changed my brain so much

he just... really wants you to know about this cool thing in this game he found, and it's so earnest you can't help but get into it too
