But then you get just:

"In the 19th century, there were angry people which lead to suddenly Israel and that made people also angry."

Palestine is a more rightful continuation of that than Israel, ngl.

Reminds me of that one hate-review of the captain marvel movie that was longer than the movie itself (and more entertaining...)

Some topics do genuinely require more time though. But those can and should be split into well-defined chapters.

Yup. The ones that are just a blow by blow recap are not really offering anything valuable. If there are specific chapters with points to make then longer videos can be done but generally I find even then it could benefit from knowing when to cut content.

I find most are just 2 hours of takes wrapped around 30 minutes of content.

I knew what it was going to be before I clicked it. I'm glad I wasn't disappointed

There is a lot of expected common knowledge in the history of Israel. It has been in the news near constantly since its inception. Only half a dozen LoL no-lifers have any clue who those guys are. You'd even have to explain what a MOBA was to most people before you could ever get onto the niche understanding of a rivalry in one particular MOBA's e-sports scene.
