No reason why the video can't be accompanied by a written explanation. I struggle to understand all that's going on when I watch other people play (which is the main reason I just don't "get" the fascination with Twitch, but that's a whole other thing) if I don't have some sort of reference. If I'm watching a guide before I ever step toe in the dungeon, I guarantee it will only help me a little bit. A written guide will be far more helpful to me, as I absorb that much better (I'm an avid reader). A written guide with a video would be best, as I can read the guide, and watch the video to see it in action. Some video guides are pretty well done, but then I get in game and don't remember the whole gamut of the fight, and I can't just have a video guide running in another window to reference, but I can keep a written one up and glance over to see what I missed (when dead/after a wipe).
