I linked a Warlockracy video because I really enjoy his choice of games and presentation.
Other channels I really enjoy: Mandalore, Grim Beard, Civvie11, Oboeshoesgames, and Boulder Punch.
If you can’t tell, I like longform, scripted and edited videos on older games and niche games and mods.
I’ve been watching videogamedunkey since I was a highschool freshman. I love his humour, style, and his insights in games and other media.
I second this, he’s always been so unique and hilarious, yet oddly genuine.
Dunkey, Let’s Game It Out, NakeyJakey, Digital Foundry, and Gameranx are the ones I watch most regularly.
The Architect of Games and Razbuten are fun ones if you like video essays, and Keenengraz is great for finding lots of insane free games to play. ThatGuyGlen has some cool, short docu-style videos on the making of indie games that are really well done.
I’m sure I’m forgetting plenty, but those are some of my favorites, for sure.
U Can Beat Videogames and quinbobin are two smaller channels I really like.
Also +1 for digital foundry. Great hosts who look at both console/pc games, old and new, with technical or general analysis
“Hey its me, Videogamedunkey!”
I don’t watch that much Youtube nowadays (don’t have much free time), but when I do, I enjoy these channels the most:
- Girlfriend Reviews: Entertaining, funny, and wholesome reviews. Really like their dynamic;
- GPLaps: Very interesting simracing channel, you get regular simracing content but also some very interesting videos about historic races, cars, tracks, etc., that he recreates with mods;
- Kilian Experience whenever he feels like uploading. Has been branching to other stuff aside from gaming lately;
- LordKnight: Fighting game-focused channel. Initially subscribed because he was the Millia player outside Japan but switched to Baiken since. Still has good, insightful content.
On PeerTube, there’s BoilingSteam, who mainly focuses on PC gaming on Linux. I’d like to get a better feel for what’s on there regarding gaming channels and whatnot. If you know any you’d recommend, I’d really appreciate if you could mention them.
Girlfriend Reviews is fracking hilarious!
Real Civil Engineer for messing about in building games like KSP, Cities Skylines
Let’s Game it Out for breaking games
The Spiffing Brit for finding funny exploits
Video Game Dunkey for reviews.
I second Let’s Game it Out. Josh is insane
Wirtual definitely does a great job of the long form history focused deep dives on Trackmania.
Gotta be SovietWomble and his “Random Bullshittery” episodes!
It’s usually 10-20 minutes of high quality sillyness realesed every month or so, although he’s been doing some longform video essays too in recent years
(Warning: occasional strong language)
SovietWomble’s csgo videos were pretty funny
I really love That Trav Guy, he makes super interesting and entertaining videos on the history behind and gameplay of games and game series, his MegaMan X6 video got me to finally finish the game after struggling with it since I was like 6. I also follow him on Twitter and he just seems like a swell guy!
shoutout to simpleflips
Josh Strife Hayes makes really good videos about mmos and retro games ( on his other channel ). I love the constructive criticism he gives devs and his sarcastic delivery.
I miss Two Best Friends Play.
Vinesauce, Josh Strife Hayes, TripleJump when i just need to turn my brain off with a wall of content, plus a bunch of old SomethingAwful Guys: Smight, TieTuesday, Psychadelic Eyeball, Diabetus, etc
Videogamedunkey and NakeyJakey make some great/hilarious content.
There’s also a soft spot in my heart for Jerma985 though these days he does twitch and only occasionally posts clips to his second channel.
ChristopherOdd for playthroughs.
He is the only streamer I actually like to watch. He knows when to talk, and when to stay silent and let the game atmosphere take the lead. He also has excellent taste in games.
A couple ones with longer videos, and some music-related channels are my (current) favourites.

And also shoutout to TotalBiscuit. Still do miss his quality content. Haven’t seen any channel nowadays come close to it.
I don’t watch that much gaming related YouTubers but I usually like the content from Bricky, Mandalore and ambiguousamphibian.
Especially ambiguousamphibian’s pseudo philosophical challenges are always entertaining. People should check out his: “Kenshin - The Torso Squad Experience” series.
I recommend Warlockracy specifically to you then, since he’s kind of a mix of Mandalore’s format with pseudo philosophical musings. A very particular sense of humor that often requires deep pull internet knowledge layered on top.
