Good gaming channels on Youtube?

Another one on Deus Ex, with Warren Spector himself. Sorry for spamming.

Throwing dirt at the liberals by showing the like/dislike ratio for chris davis/errant signal videos during the conspiracy section gets a thump up from me.

 

[Baron Dupek]

I still need to endure both reviews for comparison.
Also - above video got recomendation for another channel

are we?

 

[Alienman]

We owe the concept of recording your final moments on some kind of recorder instead of fleeing.

I expected someone tricked Dean Takashi into playing classic games and recorded him while doing so, but nope. The player can jump and move forward at the same time, which puts him above that gamejourno scum. Fake title.

 

[Fedora Master]

Terror's Realm is close to my heart.

*splurt*

After watching this, I'm amazed Grim managed to make a video about one of the weirdest jankiest RE clones ever so fucking boring.

How many The Ring games are out there?
It feels like some kind of electric boogaloo sequel, created after successful reception of the previous game.

Man, even these days if you type "Game Journalist" on Youtube, one of the options will be "...can't beat Cuphead tutorial", it explains stuff like this:

So I watched the video.
Vax shilling is disgusting.
A lot of commie speak.
But the line above is not the same. The "artist" in question is Morgan Everett, and considering that allying with him is one of the endings...

But the idea is that people like Everett are "artists". RL billionaires like Bezos are nothing of that sort

Can't say that I'm agree completely but it is an interesting thought.

He is intelligent, but he lacks soo many parts of the puzzle. He is in chaos, which is of course intended. At least he admits in the end that he doesn't know what it's all about. But he feels confident about his non-sequitur assessments he makes. He feels secure that he gets it. Meanwhile he is lost in a sea of nothingness and confusion.

Saw his Arcanum video which was pretty good but he does not understand conspiracies. He is using meaningless gaslighting terms like "boomer conspiracies" which means absolutely nothing. Compared to what? Founded on what basis? Interestingly, he does have knowledge of some deeper conspiracies but he pushes away some theories out of hand, like roundtable groups or "Illuminati" or big families or just call it consolidated power groups with no real reasoning whatsoever. Fuck, just call it Vanguard, Blackrock, State Street if you want it simple to understand. I think if you just gave him that pill and he was ACTUALLY WILLING to give up the fake security his authority brain and belief in the system gives him he would start to really understand.
It really do be like that, there is only the grugpill that is correct on gut instinct and the true academic mind, that inquires deeply. The ones stuck in the middle are the controlled slaves ultimately. Buying into the lies of the system and therefore being controlled by the frame. Just hanging onto a thread of always losing something thereby being easily controllable. Or as wise men said, I don't trust those who read the newspaper for they have drank the Kool-Aid or something, paraphrased. Stuck in controlled confusion, Half Ogre Island style.

He seems too literal. Way too simplistic. As the saying goes, just knowledgeable enough to be dangerous, or harmless (to the system). Using the average age instead of the median for supposed lifespan of medieval peasants. Them having worse food but then not mentioning the Plato Republic pill, or the meatpill, if you will. That decentralised food production can easily sustain everyone and that the centralisation is the actual problem and was intended to bring us to this point where it is being intentionally destroyed. That we were led unto this path of not just literal but mental soyification and weakening and specialisation so that we are too dependant on the slave system.
His iceberg meme nicely jumps to more non-sequiturs. Capital spontaneously(!?) creates NGOs? He's like a fucking underwear dwarf from South Park. If Illuminati were real, that would be an upgrade, because, reasons?
How would he know they have no philosophies they follow? Which is obviously wrong and stupid. They are satanic, even if unknowingly, they buy into lies like Theory of Evolution/Social Darwinism and Malthusianism, Luciferianism/Enlightenment etc. He seems like a bugman. He looks up adoringly at "artists" and "intellectuals". He reminds me of the Patrick Bateman character.

This always struck me as cope tbh...
It is always easier to assume that ones with power, if they seem to have fundamentally different worldview, are incompetent, uncreative, don't deserve to be there, are just the cogs in some impersonal machine... We all want to be the overmen, nobody wants to be the resentful slave.

In the case of the silicon valley types, I'd say that there is definitely a vision there for the future of man and earth and goals outside the pursuit of capital. These people would likely consider themselves artistic and creative, probably go to Burning Man, take psychedelics, are into transhumanism and so on.

Pretty much nailed it. Liberals think they are doing good. They are "idealistic", progressive, as the saying goes. But what does this actually mean? Nothing. Without a solid basis you will just be a stuck in an endless demonic cycle of nihilism and revolutions that are antihuman to the core. Every utopia is a dystopia.
And again, people like them never manage to think that far. Their mind is chaos and so their actions are chaos.

 

[Thor Kaufman]

Speaking of content creators.
I think I myself mentioned him a few times. Manlybadasshero always made and makes excellent completionist content. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKv8Rrrdc9oxLJmdHItafLA
He mainly plays indie games and horror games but also mainstream. He finally reached his more than deserved one million subs. He is also very stoic (hence the name), yet very humorous. Also a true bigbrain, often among the first to find SECRETS in games and excellent at puzzles. Absolute toppest tier of LPers.

Time for some rankings!

Cruelty squad and dishonored in excellent?
Bioshock and deathloop pretty good??
Thief is a immersive sim???
E.Y.E at the bottom????

I don't think even ign could make a more offensive list.

 

[Rahdulan]

I love how you can tell he doesn't really listen to sounds in Thief just over six minutes into the video. You don't have to look around the corner when you can HEAR the stomping of the boots approaching.

 

[toughasnails]

I guess that would be almost a reflex move for someone who played a lot of Deus Ex before playing any Thief.

 

[Denim Destroyer]

I know a few people who couldn't get into Thief due to the listening requirement. Some like to listen to other things while playing or being in a Discord server, either way this guy seems to have casual taste if he considered Cruelty Squad (flavor of the month) and Deathloop (AAA garbage) to be good immersive sims.

Here is a list of video game-related subscriptions I have on my YouTube account. Mostly long form video essays, but some other types of channels too.

Yes, I made the website and this is a shill post.

"Immersive sim" is a retarded and completely useless label, and anyone who uses it should be beaten to death.

It's a useless label, but everyone knows exactly what kinds of games you're talking about when using it.

"Immersive Sim" has retroactively been applied to Thief, System Shock, Ultima Underworld, Deus Ex, Dishonoured, Prey(shock) and, last I checked, fucking Deathloop. It's worthless.

Yeah it's getting ridiculous, I even heard that Bioshock, Fallout: New Vegas, Subnautica and Hitman(2016) are added to mix of "Immersive sims". I believe the term got popularized by idiotic "ludonarrative dissonance" youtubers, who used this term to sound smarter than they are.

the Hitman trilogy does have immersive sim elements tho. trying to simulate an entire clockwork town with multiple different ways the scenarios can ripple out depending on your actions. it's definitely overused and not a full immerssive sim, just like how ludonarrative faggotry is used to describe basic plot holes
