I'm here from the Warframe Wiki and would like to share a few points that have shaped our view on these videos over the time.


 * The content of the videos, that have been forced on us, have often been incorrect, misleading or outdated. Some approaches of simplifying explanations have been just wrong.


 * The video footage for these seems to be primarily ripped from Youtube. The used footage (video as well as still images) also often doesn't match the narration or is many years outdated.


 * Autoplay into quest-related videos combined with automatically playing other unrelated videos afterwards easily spoils story-content.


 * One of our admins had been accepted for script review last september, they haven't heard anything about upcoming videos since, even though they continued to be put up.


 * A fix for the video player regarding slow-loading devices (which had supposedly been in the work for six months) was eventually done by one of our admins in an hour and got deleted without explanation a few days later.


 * One of these videos has been more of a rage-post than anything informative. We had to go way to high up in both companies (DE, FANDOM) to get it removed.

If the content of these videos had been input into the article itself, a quick undo would've been likely in many cases.

At this point we look on Featured Videos with a dislike and have heard that many people added them to their adblockers.
