Except for vtubers, goofy shit like Chills or Steve's MRE reviews, and RedLetterMedia which everyone here already watches, I mostly watch high-effort gaming channels.
Video essays:
Raycevik mostly does post-mortems of popular games and series.
Joseph Anderson focuses more on current games with similar depth and format but insane length. This is the guy with a 5-hour Witcher 2 video.
Matt McMuscles is more "youtubey" than the others and does more multimedia and also does some gameplay stuff, but also does his reasearch.
Knowledge Hub is also more multimedia than games-focused. Does the research but also navel-gazes a bit. Bizarre production. Formerly a "history with cartoons" channel, but switched it up very dramatically at some point.
Boomer shooters:
Civvie is both good at shooters and also very good at talking about them.
Gman is worse at shooters but loves them and is also a sick ausie cunt.
Pokeman
Johnstone does completionist challenges with a franchise focused on making that as difficult as possible, at times.
Asprey did a couple of series, one on cut content and another on intentional softlocks. Enormous fucking weeb, but interesting to watch.
False Swipe Gaming does historical and current competitive analysis. Really dry unless you like this sort of thing, but well-researched.
Autism
Mitten Squad focuses on challenge playthroughs, mostly of Bethesda games. Looks exactly like he sounds. Very entertaining.
Sseth Tzeentach is a chans-poisoned Swede but goes very hard into reviewing older, or more autistic games like Caves of Qud or Elona.
Mandalore is so similar to Sseth in format, interests, and Europeanis that people often joke they're the same person, but Mandalore is much less meme-y and more relaxed. Together they "ruined the SS13 community" by bringing moderate interest to the game when it was lousy with perverts and Goons.
Dunkey isn't actually autistic, I just don't know where else to put him. He plays games and he makes jokes. Probably one of the best in this extremely saturated format.
