Guy's never heard of Youtube
There's an infinite amount of channels doing videos on every imaginable hyperspecific niche interest now, you will never run out
Just sit down and let the algorithm smooth your brain.
What's this? A guy comparing how the design and anatomy of the various species in the Oddworld franchise has changed across games in 25+ years? Well I know how I'm spending my next half hour
