I don't think it's actually very good, unfortunately. But I appreciate the effort!
- Just like Pathfinder, OOOOOOHHHHHHHH!!!
  nah, I'm kidding. But yeah, the video is kinda mediocre. The lyrics are ok, the delivery is meh, but like you said I appreciate the effort.

  I do wonder, at the very least, how hard it would have been to do a collab, ideally with a D&D YouTuber (to take the D&D part), or failing that, with another Pathfinder channel, so at least it's not one person trying to rap both parts.
  Collabs are supposed to be good for the algorithm, too! It woulda been win-win.
  
  At a time where D&D-tubers are floundering as YouTube's recommendation system continues to pare down what it actually bothers to show people, I cannot see many of them risking whatever traction they have doing a collab with a Pathfinder creator. King Ooga Ton Ton would be the one to gain everything, with little in it for the D&D creator, if it turns out not to be a net negative for them.

  I mean, wouldn't that be all the more reason to do something that is widely regarded as beneficial for the algorithm? Obviously a tit-for-tat, with Ooga then collabing on something on their channel as well.
  But anyway, the possible lack of interest from D&D YouTubers (since so many of them are terminally uninterested in anything other than D&D) is why I also suggested a different Pathfinder channel as a secondary option. Anything would have been better than one person doing both parts, and collabs in general a great for the algorithm (at least, that's the conventional wisdom...nobody really understands the algorithm).
