    He composed a soundtrack. FOR A QNA VIDEO! ARE YOU *KIDDING ME??*
    The DEDICATION, it’s AMAZING.
    And on top of that, this video lets us as see and appreciate just how much love and effort and care goes into each video. He even created the little “What I Love” jingle that he creates VARIATIONS OF for EVERY VIDEO! Scruffy’s gotta be one of the most hard-working and dedicated people, just ever.

      Not to mention the delicate pacing of every video allows the resolution brought by the "What I Love" jingle to resonate with everything you just watched, truly bringing the video to an end. The video satisfying every step of the way and wrapped up with the little bow on top that is the jingle.

    I always thought the "hello" at the beginning of every video seemed so exceedingly inviting and friendly, and you pointing it out made me realize that it was a minor third, which is the most common/important interval in nursery rhymes and the like.

    As someone who is about to graduate from undergrad with a B.A. in music education, your videos are a joy to watch. I hadn’t found many creators that have been able to create videos that blend educating viewers on musical topics intertwined with a love for video games done at such a high level of production until I came across your channel (the videos about Splatoon and Animal Crossing are my favorites, so far). They are always so well made, and hearing more about all of the work that goes into each video has made me appreciate the final product even more. Keep up the great work!! 😁

    Who on God's green earth disliked this video? Scruffy is (in my eyes) the most underrated content creator here on UA-cam and pretty much anywhere else. And this video only goes to show his hard work and dedication to sharing what he's passionate about.
    And Scruffy? If you see this, I want to say that I finally realized why your videos are so enjoyable to watch (aside from the smooth-talking and the complex, yet understandable information). It's because you DO structure your videos so similarly to kid's shows. Thank you for sharing with me what you love

    For some reason, I just KNEW you were gonna say De Blob 2. Good taste, my man! I would always be orange in that game whenever possible since I play the trombone and wanted to hear all the funky licks the game had to offer.
    Edit: Ooh also if you cover Kirby music, I would love to hear your take on how the most modern game Kirby: Star Allies reworks the classic Green Greens motif. I know pretty much every modern Kirby final boss theme quotes Green Greens at some point, but Void Termina's does so in some really cool ways, and becomes a whole lot more interesting when you dive into the lore connections between Kirby and Void Termina.
    Sorry for ranting there, I'm somewhat of a Kirby Lore Historian. Best of luck, can't wait to hear what you do next!

    I've wanted to get into creating my own "educational" channel for a long time, and obviously I would create the soundtrack and animations and everything for it myself. This is inspiring me more and more to just do it, even if I don't have a whole lot of time between my job and other obligations. Personally, I would want it to be a full time gig where I just get to rant about all of the nerdy things that I think are cool like music, science, math, linguistics, cryptography, computer programming, and more.
    Perhaps one day I'll get to fulfill that dream of mine, and I think it will start with me just doing it.

    Your point about making music being about discovery, really strikes with me. Because in TV shows, movies, and games The background music is what I'd like to listen to the most. Take adventure time for example, the BGM in there is all over the place and crazy. Your videos along with my interests in BGM make me want to make my own music. But I do not know anything about music composition or a lot of music history. I wonder what I can make and how different it will sound from everything else since I have no background in it. (which is a half truth because I did band but I did not pay attention)

    Once again you show off your amazing ability at both verbal and visual communication. You do wonders with your animated infographics to really hammer in the points you're trying to me. It reminds me of Understanding Comics and the rest of that series by Scott McCloud, like he does, you leverage the particular strengths of the medium you're communicating in to emphasize your points. It makes understanding your points all the clearer, it's like having hand gestures but they perfectly convey and emphasize the right parts of what is being said. It's important that you do this because otherwise the only context we would have is your voice, which can leave some information lost without seeing any visual cues.
    All that to say that I love your visual communication, it's got style and I want to emphasize that the work and effort you do to put it in your videos is absolutely worth it! These details definitely matter, in case you were ever wondering if anyone notices. (Example when you mention that your introduction on some games is on the "lighter side" and for the rest of that "paragraph" segment, the screen is gray instead of black, fantastic visual communication!)
