Good job getting through a video you've avoided for so long!
I especially think you're right about the "to humble"-thing, I think that you've said you're sorry in some videos around that time when you've paused the gameplay, which gives a similar impression, but I don't think you've done that in a long time. You have evolved a lot since then, but stay true in the core values about "things that makes people happy are good things", sounds like a good evaluation to me :)

Hey Mr Anus,
first: I hope you'll enjoy your christmas very much and get fat from all the food without regrets.
About the original video: It wasnt my fav either when I watched it. And thats strange because the topic of ACE is very much a thing I love to see. I think its insane to get something like that to work and so I could have enjoyed a video about it. But: You didn't dive in deep enough to make me understand this example of ACE fully. You could have spend 30 minutes on the details of the code that is inserted and the triggers that get it to execute and it would have been a great watch for me (Bismuth has a great video about Super Mario 3 credits warp that I love. Did you see it?). But I *guess* I am in the minority here. So You could have gone with a very shallow approach of it and explain none of the details and instead just say he does it, without trying to explain the tech behind it. There you could have been funny with a stupid metaphor all video long. And in the end you could have given a shoutout to someone who dives into the details. You said in the beginning you're not the best to describe it. You could have sticked with that. Have it be a short teaser video just saying something like "look at this insane run. He does... ... ... If you wanna know how it works in detail, check this video out". Or hell, why not split your own video into two chapters? The silly overview part one, and the code diving insanity in part two? But I guess that would be difficult from a narrative point of view...
Anyway, enjoy your holidays and have a great new year man!
