Good gaming channels on Youtube?

I like Poofesure quite a lot. He seems very disconnected from the games he plays.

It's like a schoolkid pretending to be dry and dismissive of the game. But then he makes a mistake or something, and screams in frustration like he was invested all along. It's funnier when you watch him play the most unassuming game, like wii sports and mario kart

Maybe it's just the voice or the cadence that makes me laugh. I don't find him as funny when his face is showing. Youtube made me realize about the magic of old radio

Overall, it is the most appealing way one could put raging and toilet humor into a gameplay video. The immaturity is very understated, so it catches you by suprise when the raging starts. Also, he seems to hide a softer interior

The older videos are not as appealing. Not the right type of games, and the voice wasn't there

P.S.: He doesn't really do any criticism, so all the pedantic assholes can stay away

Considering the first one was for the ZX Spectrum, i doubt that unless it's complete autism, if anything, i am betting on one of the SNES games being declared the best.

He rated PoE1 higher than fallouts, BGs and pathfinders... I reported his channel for hate speech
Be fucking careful with that. Whatever runs youtube's flagging system (humans, AI, monkeys, or a combination of all of them) doesn't have the brainpower to distinguish what will and won't fall under youtube's vague content guidelines (I doubt even youtube upper-management knows how it all works).

Anyone know how good this channel is? I found him cause he talks about Shining Force and has a lot of videos on SRPGs, but he blocked comments and likes so I'm not sure if his other content is worth listening to.

He's OK. Comments are available on his utreon account https://utreon.com/c/harvester/

Honestly, I haven't found a better channel for covering SRPGs, and he's got some "controversial" opinions like completely trashing Final Fantasy Tactics (and just now trashing Banner Saga). I think he'd fit rather well here on the 'dex.

What the hell is utreon? I saw his channel on Odysee (he only has comments on other platforms, because he finds the youtube community shitty. Fair enough.) and I'm aware of most other Youtube alternatives but I haven't heard even a whisper of utreon.

I can't remember if it was this thread or the Ys thread I saw the History of Falcom video from this guy, but in general he makes documentary style videos about Japanese games.

As far as I can tell, Utreon is yet another youtube alternative, like Odysee.

Not really.The banner saga video is a joke where he just bitches about the initiative system and the game being a walking sim.
In the codex banner thread there are people advocating for the initiate system with decent arguments.

He is more typical chan then codex.Surface level critique without really understanding the systems.
Also comparing void spire to breach(which is practically a puzzle game in disguise ) should be punishable by law.
