I feel like youtubers just affirm opinions nowadays and are way to scared to say what they truly feel, or most videos are what I call "Victory Laps" where a retrospective is not exactly a true Retrospective/Re-Review its a plot summarization made to bait nostalgia addicts to comment. What ever happened to old youtube where you would see a wide variety of opinions. There are only 3 types of gaming youtubers now its either the extremely corporate child friendly "Shill" youtuber who doesnt talk about anything in the real life, is extremely uncritical of anything even blatant issues, and just ignores issues becasue it brings "bad vibes" or the doomer tier everything is shit who turns into more of a culture war grifter the more they dislike modern video games and the redditor who tries to make video game content on youtube be like art or movie critique.
>Say that [latest AAA game] is complete garbage
>Some unhinged asshole doxxes you because that was his favorite brand
>A mob of bored lunatics start following you everywhere for years or maybe even the rest of your life
>Youtube demonetizes you because you said [word they don't like]
>No more sponsors because (you) are a brand risk
>Other channels make videos about ''The Fall of Gaming-guy''
It depends on the AAA slop, I love Space Marine 2 but some channels were extremely scared of giving it a lower score than what the fandom deemed it should get since the 40k fandom is extremely unhinged now. You also saw this with Resident Evil 4 Remake a majority of gamers already deemed it would be amazing so when the more critical reviews came out people went insane.

Oh yeah, the Crowbcat video about Resident Evil 4 remake is the perfect example of what I was saying. Had to change the title to avoid a public lynching, absolute beta behavior.

Thats just Crowbcat misjudging the youtube audience, sure /v/ tier opinions on youtube get you massive but certain /v/ opinions like the arguments over the RE4remake werent flying to well on youtube he just misjudged it, also using soul vs soulless unironically killed the video.

I remember grabbing cheap copy from somewhere and couldn't beat the first level.
Though that I was bad with videogames in general... then found out it was Cryo game. A major Eurojank factory from the past. Some of their games got really loose duct-taped parts...
