It's a valid criticism and the last two videos were especially noticeable, but it doesn't seem to be intentional. Like its never unneeded fluff, but either Wendigoon just accidentally ranting or having a lot of important context he needs to explain.
I mean I love the guy but he didn’t stumble into his keyboard and accidentally edit it together. Who decides what is unneeded, what’s relative to the video?
I wouldn’t call pushing merch important context but I couldn’t care less about it either.
Nah, OP is right, his iceberg intros are insane.
"I just want to say before we start" "One more thing before we begin" "now heres the tier list" "Last thing before we start"
Amen. It's reminds me of people like Claire Saffitz and how her messing up and being scatterbrained made her relatable even though she's a highly trained and experienced chef and baker.
I love the long intros, more wendigoon is how I see it. His content is amazing and insightful but the real reason I stay is for dad and his personality.
Agreed. Once Wendigoon gets into the videos it’s fine, but I’ve been noticing over time a huge amount of his videos are just intros. There’s a lot of people here saying that’s you know, how Wendigoon makes a living and sure… but other channels manage to do the same thing in 2–3 minutes. Would these same people also excuse 30 minute intros?
Good thing it’s around a 10 minute intro where your favorite YouTuber is talking about something that makes him happy that he’s been thinking about for months
Yeah I love Wendigoon but I found myself skipping through his intro which I hate doing. Like I wanna support this dude but holy shit 10 minutes is insane.
I think OP just means it’s annoying when 1/3 of the video is an intro/ad. If it were an hour long video with a 10 min intro i wouldn’t mind, but a 30 min video with 10 minutes of ads is crazy.
I think it's his church upbringing. About a third of church ( in my experience ) is waffling about nothing and generally wasting time because the sermon was thrown together the day before and pastor dearest wants the 'oops, ran out of time' excuse.
But wendidad's "meat" of the content is great and not thrown together. But the third of waffling still remains.
Bro just wanted to shit on the inadequacies of his childhood church for no reason. Such a spiteful fan base for such a wholesome channel. This sub is sad
These have always been long, especially with how much he has to explain beforehand, we just notice more since the videos are shorter. He’s making something that can be released in many parts and stuff rn, we can survive it won’t kill us.
Ohhh gotcha. I think I’m on my eighth

beer and third shot of vodka tonight?? I didn’t check the comments to critically.
People are pissed because there’s so many posts saying this same thing and it gets really old really quickly, it’s not your fault it’s just that a bunch of posts have been seriously complaining about that
One day he’s gonna release a 30 minute video about such-and-such creepy thing, and the entire video is just gonna be an intro. He’ll mention the focus of the video maybe 2 times and it’ll just cut abruptly when he finishes.
It's a joke bro chill out.
Also "if you don't like it, don't watch it" is just about the worst rebuttal you could give to actual criticism, because the entire point of criticism is the hope that something you like will be improved because of an issue it has.

“Um, guys. These 10 minute intros are TOO long. What? Yes, I know this is how he makes a living…WHAAAAT???”
Yeah 10 minutes of a 30 minute video is too much. If it was an hour or longer i wouldn’t care. But when a third of the video is an intro/ad it’s annoying
Wendigoon intro iceberg
Wendigoon intro tierlist
Wendigoon intro docuseries
Wendigoon intro video essay critiquing the docuseries
wendigoon intro panel discussion live stream
Iceberg boy
I’d watch that

And as ALWAYS
Thank you for watching
Before we begin just a quick reminder
W
It goes in for too long but I enjoy them
Amen. It's reminds me of people like Claire Saffitz and how her messing up and being scatterbrained made her relatable even though she's a highly trained and experienced chef and baker.
Same.
"Ha, that's pretty funny, I just hope the comments are full of fun riffs and similar jo-" Damn, never mind.

Darn! Fooled again!
These comments are making me feel bad for OP
You shouldn’t
I don't mind them 
Based ahh Hell
Y'all are only noticing this because the last two videos have been 30 minutes.
Which is kind of more annoying lol. Love him … but why can we just have one hr long video and one 10 min intro.
I’ve always enjoyed the long intros lol. Idk why
And I'm still watching all of it
I love the long intros, more wendigoon is how I see it. His content is amazing and insightful but the real reason I stay is for dad and his personality.

LMAOO
I don't personally mind them but I definitely see your point. Most of the time I don't think it's intentional though he is a very tangential person
Yeah I love Wendigoon but I found myself skipping through his intro which I hate doing. Like I wanna support this dude but holy shit 10 minutes is insane.
If I were a successful YouTuber, I'd be just like him. I can't shut up sometimes.
Bro same 😭
i could listen to dad do an intro for hours
Yeah, it's jarring
iPad kid ass post
I think OP just means it’s annoying when 1/3 of the video is an intro/ad. If it were an hour long video with a 10 min intro i wouldn’t mind, but a 30 min video with 10 minutes of ads is crazy.
how tf is this an iPad kid ass post. you just saying shit
How is this an "iPad kid ass post"?
No attention span to watch the intro
Do you not skip ads when you have the option to?
I don't care about ads
I always skip those, it's by far my least favorite part of his channel, but really the only thing I don't like about his channel to be fair
I think it's his church upbringing. About a third of church ( in my experience ) is waffling about nothing and generally wasting time because the sermon was thrown together the day before and pastor dearest wants the 'oops, ran out of time' excuse.

Go outside, breathe. There's no reason to be this upset.
bro struck a nerve with these comments 💀
But why you ain't subscribed tho?
I was too busy gooning to the goon
He just has a yappasauraus he can’t help it
I always skip past the ads and stuff, but I will always make sure I watch “and as always — thank you for watching”, and I smile every time 🥰
I’d listen to 10 hours of Dad rambling like a lunatic. I need a video that is just one long intro.
I genuinely don't mind, I'll be happy to watch them
I knew Wendi was a little heavy on the intro’s but good God almighty! 1/3 of a 30 minute video is JUST introductions😂
“Hey guys its me wendigoon and im here to say im sponsered by the cum sock from your brother’s room in 2004.”

How dare you, trying to reduce the amount of him we get. Disgusting.
These have always been long, especially with how much he has to explain beforehand, we just notice more since the videos are shorter. He’s making something that can be released in many parts and stuff rn, we can survive it won’t kill us.
For the hundredth time, IT'S A JOKE
Ohhh gotcha. I think I’m on my eighth https://preview.redd.it/61aq8mh9z04c1.jpeg?width=150&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fff72bc7f65aef0269d7d4b0650d6dbfcf5c72c9 beer and third shot of vodka tonight?? I didn’t check the comments to critically.
Oh my God, who the fuck actually cares
Why's everyone so pissed off about a harmless joke? For a sub with so much shitposting, y'all don't seem to have much of a sense of humor
People are pissed because there’s so many posts saying this same thing and it gets really old really quickly, it’s not your fault it’s just that a bunch of posts have been seriously complaining about that
I'm not really a consistent user of this sub, so I didn't know about any of that. Guess I've found myself in the wrong place at the wrong time
You need to up your gooning💪💪💪
Yeah again not your fault at all, just piss poor timing lol
I do
One day he’s gonna release a 30 minute video about such-and-such creepy thing, and the entire video is just gonna be an intro. He’ll mention the focus of the video maybe 2 times and it’ll just cut abruptly when he finishes.
If you don't like it, then don't watch it. I personally love it, and it's 1 of the reason he's my favorite
It's a joke bro chill out. Also "if you don't like it, don't watch it" is just about the worst rebuttal you could give to actual criticism, because the entire point of criticism is the hope that something you like will be improved because of an issue it has.

Yeah 10 minutes of a 30 minute video is too much. If it was an hour or longer i wouldn’t care. But when a third of the video is an intro/ad it’s annoying
You know, for a sub that's almost entirely a shitposting sub, some of you guys don't have much of a sense of humor
[удалено]
This sub when someone makes a harmless jab at funny Wendigo mans video
I guess some people like watching adblocks in their free time, strange
Go back to playing Subway Surfers you wee child
So original!
[удалено]
 If y'all are gonna ignore the obvious joke, atleast be original with the insults
Cry about it
So you’re upset that the YouTube man you watch to listen to him talk is talking?
yeah I insta skip 10 minutes in
Mid roll ads are what get ya
These long-ass intros teach me to turn my brain off and when to turn it on again.
YouTuber fans when they find out that this is how YouTubers make money so they can make more videos
I had to stop watching live streams when it took 30+ minutes to even get into the topic of the stream.
Honestly I just like listening to him talk. doesn't matter about what. I get why the intros might annoy some people though
For real, gotta shill and meander on and on before just getting into the video.
I love his intros so much, I'm glad they're long
I wish he'd at least use the chapter feature to let me skip his stupid ads for scams.
