This is great but, like most tutorials, it shows a lot of how but not a lot of why. Like why is the [Serializable()] decorator needed? What does it do?

Pretty good video with good information, but it would be nice if you were more enthusiastic; you sound so bored.

People claim they watch these videos and get C#, Python, etc. I watch, think I understand, but cannot write anything. I ask myself if I'm retarded or if people are not honest.
