Has SunnyV2 actually ruined video essays?

I got a discord now:   / discord   Pinely released a video months ago talking about how SunnyV2 "Ruined Video Essays." But I'm still confused as to what exactly counts as a video essay, and if SunnyV2 has actually "ruined" anything. No shade meant towards Pinely or anyone else btw. ______________ VIDEOS FEATURED: How SunnyV2 Ruined Video Essays - Pinely -    • How SunnyV2 Ruined Video Essays   YMS: Kimba the White Lion - YourMovieSucksDOTorg -    • YMS: Kimba the White Lion   CHANNELS FEATURED: Pinely -    / @pinely   SunnyV2 -    / @sunnyv2   YMS -    / @yms   ACTUAL GOOD VIDEO ESSAYISTS YOU SHOULD CHECK OUT: History of the Universe -    / @historyoftheuniverse   Nexpo -    / @nexpo   LEMMiNO -    / @lemmino   Jacob Geller -    / @jacobgeller   EmpLemon -    / @emperorlemon   The Cursed Judge -    / @thecursedjudge   BobbyBroccoli -    / @bobbybroccoli   Arch -    / @officialarch   Primer -    / @primerblobs   Defunctland -    / @defunctland   Mikasacus -    / @mikasacus   Folding Ideas -    / @foldingideas   Summoning Salt -    / @summoningsalt   Barely Sociable -    / @barelysociable   MUSIC USED: Peace Keepers Theme - Spyro The Dragon OST - Stewart Copeland -    • Spyro the Dragon Soundtrack - Peace Keeper...   Peace Keepers Alternate Theme - Spyro The Dragon OST - Stewart Copeland -    • Spyro the Dragon Soundtrack - Unknown Track 1   February - JHXC (Album) - JHXC -    • February   Beach - PLOK - Tim & Geoff Follin -    • Plok! SNES Music - Beach   Raiya’s Song - Kimba The White Lion -    • Raiya's Song - Jungle Taitei   Timber Hearth - Outer Wilds Soundtrack - Andrew Prahlow -    • Timber Hearth   CHAPTERS: 0:00 Intro 0:26 SunnyV2 Mid 1:35 SunnyV2 used to be good 3:37 What even are video essays? 6:01 YMS Kimba 8:06 Video essays good 8:25 Australia is based 8:48 My favorite video essayists
