Has SunnyV2 actually ruined video essays?

Описание: 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.
