Yes, that is just mine subjective feeling as someone, at the time, not knowing of LTT but loving Louis.

I think that was Linus being an awkward nerd. I think Louis also mentiond Linus does things differently from him where he did a lot of retakes, which Louis doesn't really do. So Linus probably came off more awkward and weird probably having to cut that down and do more one shots being a guest and all. He's better speaker now than back then. And he's obviously out of his element compared to Louis here, so adding to the awkwardness.

Yes they were both aweful, but somehow Linus got out of that video looking better than Louis.

Louis was the guest, he needs to end up looking good. It is not only recording but montage too.

I remember Louis was defending Linus from people seeing it as bad representation, so this is just my own private opinion - Louis didn't want to go to war with much more popular Linus, that's when his channel exploded in popularly.
