Why it worked
The video leverages relatable gamer frustrations and humor through a popular platform (Steam reviews) and a well-known meme source (9GAG), creating a shareable and engaging piece of content.
Summary
The video showcases a humorous Steam review for a game, listing the things the reviewer gave to the game (money, time, love) and what the game gave back to them (arthritis, rage, broken peripherals, anxiety, etc.). The review concludes with a high rating and a thank you to 9GAG.

Product placement
Steam: A platform for playing and distributing video games. It appears as a watermark and the interface for the review. Removing it would change what happens in the video. 9GAG: A social media platform for sharing memes and funny content. It appears as a credit at the end. Removing it would not change what happens in the video.
