that begs the question, are you looking for entertainment or information?
Even ignoring the entertainment factor, Steve is too long winded and doesn't convey much subjectivity. I understand objectivity is generally favored in reviews, but subjectivity is also desired, especially in a video. Otherwise you can just read the data.
Yeah the same is true for JayzTwoCents. The content is great and I like both guys, but they would do well by keeping it a bit shorter. Especially JayzTwoCents likes to ramble about tiny video material for twenty minutes and still fails to properly get his point across. He could use a more fledged out script before turning on the camera. They both made videos about failing AiO coolers and the main point was just to mount the pump below the reservoir or at least low enough for air to not get trapped in it. There. One sentence. Both wandered about and lost most viewers in the process. It left people so confused, they anded up watching both guy's videos.
But on a more positive note, I recently built my first own PC and I relied heavily on Gamers Nexus and JayzTwoCents for their reviews and practical videos. Their stuff had top notch information and was tremendously helpful. I didn't really look at any LTT content in preparation for my build. I was a little surprised about that, because I have been an LTT subscriber since they were in that house with whole-room watercooling. They have somehow gone way beyound the regular gamer/pc-building related content and now have quite a big gap in their portfolio of videos. They have one big video that talks you through planning and building your PC which is great honestly (thanks Emily!), but it is also very general in order to stay relevant for longer. When I was looking for newer stuff and was trying to make choices, GN and JTC it was!
