REport: Burned by YouTube 🔥

I don't really watch shorts. It seems like a waste of time but not enough of a time killer.

Damn, didn't realise the views on that were so low. I really enjoyed it. Although given the random 1 minute videos that YouTube have been recommending lately, I think YT might be playing around with the algorithm. Again. (Probably still adjusting to their new 'Shorts' format). Hopefully in a week or two it'll get some more visibility and the views will go up.

It’s such a huge shame that this stuff is happening, because your musicals keep on getting better! 12 minutes was really captivating, the ending such a twist. I’m afraid I don’t really partake in YouTube shorts, but I do watch whatever pops into my subscription page, so I’d happily watch if you guys choose to go that direction!

Sorry, I just got really excited about that part because I 100% shared in Nate's frustration, and I was SO relieved when I discovered the solution to it. ANYWAY.... Youtube Shorts. *blinks*. Apparently that's a thing? Never really heard of them. Not surprising since, as I've said several times, RE is literally the only YT channel I follow. And since you guys don't do them, I'm not aware of them. Go figure! Seems like it's a generational thing... Kids these days have no patience, and no attention span whatsoever. That's my explanation for the "appeal" of.... ~30 second videos, it sounds like? Le sigh. So, if the animator for the Needlemouse remake quit... Did they at least finish recording the voice of Tails, or does that also need recast? Just curious.

Or it might have been Twitter. I saw the comments somewhere before the musical aired

Pausing this REport in the middle of it to tell you that you can DISABLE THAT STUPID WEATHER+NEWS "interests" PANEL! Right-click on the taskbar, hover over "News + Interests" and uncheck "open on hover". I leave it on "Show icon + Text" so I can see the temp outside, but you can also remove it completely.

I really only watch shorts on channels I’m subscribed to. But what I think is people don’t realize how much time and work is put into one musical. People don’t know that a three minute video(or 5 minutes in 12 minutes case) takes a really long time to do preproduction, write lyrics, film and edit.

I saw a lot of comments whilst waiting for the Secret (12 Minutes muscial) premier that people didn't know the game, which suprised me as the creators I watch like BijuuMike, GTLive, and LaurenZSide were all playing it. So it may just be this one game

I’m not gonna lie, I don’t watch shorts on YouTube at all. If you guys want to go in that direction though, I will support you 100%. I’m sorry that all of this has been happening to you lately, but just know that those of us here on Patreon will always be in your corner, no matter how crazy things get.

the new musical was so good though

I'll be honest here: I don't watch the Shorts.. like.. AT ALL. But if Shorts is one of the only options you guys have, then I'll might as well give it a try! I can't give any good recommendations for shorts though, since as I stated before, I barely watch em.. but I'm looking forward to what you guys have to give us though! I'll be here supporting you guys, no matter what!

It’s a shame. That musical is SO GOOD too. I think making shorts with the bloopers would be the most beneficial tbh. I personally don’t watch shorts at all, but I’ll watch yours to support the channel of course!

I think shorts will be good. I have seen shorts on most channels do good just interesting how shorts have taken all platforms even Instagram. I also have noticed I am getting notified later than usual too of your uploads :c but I try to check regularly

I will still be here no matter what. And I know a ton of other people who will be too.
