I need to stop saying to myself that "The next video will be shorter" Because each time i do they become longer and longer. Anyway, long coming, but... i guess it's thematic this time.
In my opinion the "platonic ideal length" for an instructional youtube video is 10 minutes. Easy to find 10 minutes to watch something new and fresh. But, your essays are compelling enough I'll find a longer stretch of time for them. (But yes, aiming for just 10 minutes for the next one would be really appreciated! Nothing wrong with splitting it into "part 1, part 2,..." etc. if you have significantly more than 10 minutes of material.
Forming cohesive timelines for your world can really help with informing the cultures, people and events of the time-frame you plan to set your storyline in. Congratulations on the video and look out for our upcoming timeline feature on Legendkeeper!
Loved the video, though I will say at least from my perspective this is a problem but not one many people look at as a problem. I think most people don't have a problem with the fairy tale ending in which everything went back to normal, or that a conflict has no lasting impact, this is probably due to a lot of writers being from places that didn't have to deal with lasting impacts, or the ending was in fact everything went back to "normal". But this is not to say that its not a problem, even if people don't see it as a problem internal consistency is needed for immersion like you said. The unreliable narrator can work incredible well, mostly if they have someone to play off of who is maybe a bit more reliable, but they can play in a way that gives enough for the reader to understand what "happened" but leave lingering questions. Great work, and happy new year
Thank You and You too! And i agree. I don't think there are general concept that are "bad" on principle, just the usage of them. The unreliable narrator is one of my favorite tool to show different perspectives Also small things that people don't see on first glance can still be important, stories have a lot of things going on in the background that most people never fully realize but work on them subconciously. Barely anyone will question the lack of lasting consequences after the big resolution but in the same time if you continue the story they will start to feel "off" but unable to describe why.
@@lordtea7688 I adore these types of videos, and the "little things" because its a certain kind of sadness when you read what could have been a great story that becomes only good or middling because of these over looked things as their plot suffers a death from a thousand cuts. So I hope my comment didn't come off as dismissive. Cheers.

Wright Bros to Space travel was only 66 years so some aspects are conceivable I guess.
