Good gaming channels on Youtube?

[Borelli]

True, but that is the fault of level designers and difficulty spike, something that no amount of tutorials can prepare you for.

 

[Hell Swarm]

Are there any gamer reviewers worth listening to who also review movies or books? I find so many game reviewers only know games and it makes their observations quite shallow. Not some artsy dickhead who can't stop telling you he went to college type. Someone who has more of a personality than video games and making youtube essays.

Depends on what you're looking for. I've been enjoying Young Defiant's stuff for a while now, but he's explicitly a troll channel.

 

[KeighnMcDeath]

Don't make 1-12 hour videos on games. If you do, bookmark the damn thing.

A nigger doing a Chad Warden impression? Lame. If you're going to copy an old eceleb at least do El Presidor and be a real troll.

This is a great little game. Played it as a kid and still enjoy it today.

Everyone on youtube is a retard or they get 20 views on a video max.

This guy might have come up before. I forget. He reviews classic space games. His voice kind of reminds me of Pete Puma.

The "scene" definitely could do with a bit of cross-pollination. The problem with books is that it is not a visual medium so getting B-roll for your video is impossible and the problem with movies (and music) is the whole dystopic copyright system YouTube has. I sometimes wonder how big of a driver to the popularity of video games is the fact that you can freely capture video and do whatever you like with it. I feel like both the movie and music industry have kinda shot themselves in the foot by so viciously chasing short-term profits.

I would be surprised if more than 2% of men in their twenties and thirties are serious readers. Most people don't read and when they read, they just read YA genre fiction slop, politically motivated pop science nonsense (Noah Harari, Black Science Man, Hans Rosling and the like) or maybe some barely worthwhile sci-fi classics in the best case scenario.

Sir this is a thread about good channels.

You can thank almighty YT algorithm for that - if you put anything that's not the main topic of your channel you can anger&confuse it enough to shadowban you from the traffic.
And people like money so they don't try anything risky.

Doesn't need to be additional content on the channel. I'm fed up of shallow game reviewers making huge essays saying nothing and having no personality. It's the problem with an entire generation at this point. Satoshi went out bug collecting and that lead to Pokemon, Pokemon stopped other kids from bug collecting and that leads to sweet fuck all. They only know the stats of a level 52 pikachu and nothing of value can be gained from that. They don't even have the imagination of reading and picturing what's happening in a book. It's underdeveloped and over stimulated manchildren.

YouTube is such a pile of garbage. Channels should be able to make separate release lists for their content and I should be able to only subscribe to a particular list if I wanted to. I should also be able to differentiate between my topics of interest and make different subscription views based on that. And before anyone says that you can already do this with RSS: this critique is not about me specifically, but how it impacts the type of content that gets produced. It doesn't matter what a bunch of smelly nerds do if the standard offering is bad.

Basically just introduce features music streaming services like Spotify have with playlists and whatnot.

Not sure if already posted, but I really like Aesir Aesthetics, he's a Finnish Youtuber who normally focuses on From Software, going all the way back to Kings Field. Does a lot of story and lore deep dives and also has some really good videos on game design, even has an interview with Chris Avellone on KOTOR 2. Some examples of his work.

I remember watching some of this guy's videos in the past.
Pretty good content, though nothing spectacular.
Also bonus points for not going full retarded fanboy "OMG FALLOUT SHOW IS SO AWESOME OMG OMG!!!".
