Seeing the other post here about YouTuber that went downhill and seeing content creators I am familiar with makes me sad. But how about those that still makes great, high quality content?

Haven’t seen Summoning Salt mentioned yet. He does great videos on the history of speed running a video game.
An example video would be Super Mario Bros: The Human Limit where the difference between a tool assisted speed run and what a human is capable is discussed. And how Super Mario Bros has an interesting mechanic allowing humans to be imperfect but still able to tie a perfectly executed speed run done using essentially a script of commands.
I love Salt, and I’m always excited for a new vid, but I think he could freshen it up by changing up the music (I know blasphemy) or using a different type of graph to show the timeline.
I also got tired of the music. I know it’s kinda his thing, but after 10 or 12 videos i started wishing the music would change every once in a while
I wish Summoning Salt would do some more recent or different games, but he really seems to love the NES/SNES era. Just saw he released his second multiple-hours-long video about Mike Tyson’s Punch Out and I am just not the audience for that I guess.
He could do good things with Hollow Knight or Halo 2 for example, but maybe that’s just not his passion.

Love Salt’s videos. Though the length of his videos are damn near becoming marvel movie length. Good thing he makes quality content.
