Gaming Retrospectives & Video Essays
About
Modeled on !videoessays@lemmy.world
This community is for long-form video game analysis, especially retrospectives, though videos on any era of gaming are permitted.
Rules
- Content of posts
All top-level posts should be a link to a long-form gaming video essay that isn’t hosted behind a paywall. Videos at least 1-hour in length are preferred.
- Title format
Each post title should include the title of the video, its creator, and its duration in the format [MM:SS] or [HH:MM:SS].
- SWF
No pornographic images or videos.
- post decent content
Noticeably low-quality content and videos that stretch any reasonable definition of “video essay” will be removed. If you’re not trying to break this rule, you probably aren’t.
- No spam
Don’t post the same video multiple times in a short time frame. Don’t flood the community with many videos from a single creator at once.

Are text retrospectives allowed here? E.g https://www.polygon.com/lord-of-the-rings/2021/6/2/22463010/lord-of-the-rings-two-towers-video-game-ea-frodo
Never considered that before, but I suppose so.
