Am I the only one who can't stand this guy's videos? He can draw a good observation, and he's got good production quality, but the puppet gimmick makes it feel like he's talking down to me. It comes off to me as "I know things about games you couldn't possibly understand, so I'll have a Muppet explain it for your tiny brain."
I have a hard time going through his videos without cringing at the puppet. Maybe it's just me though.

or maybe he just thinks its a unique presentation style and wants to stand out in some way

You're reaching a new level of overthinking.

Off all the video I've seen of him, I have never gotten that impression. I always saw it as his own unique presentation.

Uhm, you are really overthinking this.

my issue is that it seems like they are general rambling videos on every small new piece of information or thought he has, rather than making a more coherent and pointed video. just drip out your stream of consciousness as it happens. but i guess there's an audience for this so whatever

it's video for the sake of discussion rather than video for the sake of substance/content.
