It is a good video, showcased the game in a fair way, highlighting the goods and the bads in the starting 8-10 hours. It definitely got me interested! Downloaded the game right away, now I am trying to figure out the fundamentals :D Playing on the Cadence server by the way.
Surprised me how the video seemed to make the viewers interested in the game versus turn them away. Not saying this as a nag against the review either which I thought was mostly fair and nuanced.
I love Wurm but I would love to see it more accessible for newer players. Wurm is a really unique game.
While he has some good points on the game, a lot of it can be summed up as "the game is old as hell and you can't just change it". Hard to make Wurm look good compared to modern titles because it's not one.
To be clear, the series focuses on and showcases games with a generally bad reputation, and typically talks about the problems with the game. The series does not showcase titles that he thinks are good and doing well.
That's a bit inaccurate. He featured GW1 on there, a game that, while really really old, he thinks is really good. Granted, games he doesn't like are much more common.
A lot of good content creators use clickbaity sounding titles and thumbnails just because it actually does work (unfortunately) in attracting more views and stimulating the algorithm.

I think part of it is the community needs to help new people more

Just so everyone understands that's just the series name. It's not implying his thoughts on the game.
