Hey everyone I wanted to ask you guys what YouTubers do you believe should have more recognition on YouTube. I know we all have that one subscription where they put a lot of effort in to their videos and deserve a lot of views but only a few. I was wondering who is that subscription for you?

For me it is the Game Chasers. Their deal is that they go around looking for classic games. I know there are quite a few people who do this on YouTube but I believe these guys are the best. They have a lot of entertaining clips. You can see the effort they put by the professionalism in their videos. I don't know about you guys but I love collecting old games an like seeing deals that other people get. For me these guys are the best at what they do. It is a shame they can not do this a lot because of their jobs and other restrictions.

If you want to check out their main series "The Game Chasers" look at this link: http://www.youtube.com/user/Captain8Bit

Now who do you believe deserves more fame and why?

The best gamers borderline on genius with their parody vids, definitely an underrated channel.

InecomCompany http://www.youtube.com/user/InecomCompany

Because his reviews are funny,interesting and he's a Sega man.

I used to be subscribed to classic game room until I realized that his videos are boring as fuck with a complete lack of personality.


My picks would be firstly Kikoskia, a really entertaining lets player. http://www.youtube.com/user/Kikoskia/featured

And secondly Excalibur Brothers, they haven't produced any content in the last six months but what they have is gold. http://www.youtube.com/user/ExcaliburBrothers

The Best Gamers is no longer a thing. LOUDHOUSE is their new thing, but they haven't done any new videos for that in months either. ROCKCOCK64 is the only reason I watch them though, as his reviews and other videos are just amazing.

Anyway, I just recently stumbled upon a show called Game Theory. It's pretty interesting stuff, regardless of if you actual care about the science or not, and it's funny as all hell. Also, brutalmoose is another awesome video maker, along the lines of JonTron, PeanutButterGamer, and other skit/comedy based reviewers.

They plan on keeping both Loudhouse and TBG active channels.

Also I prefer Karnivore and Darkgamer videos over Rockcock but they just aren't as active.

Quite a few, actually...

Ken Ashcorp's channel isn't based around games, but he makes a lot of game-themed songs. For a college kid just making music on his downtime, his stuff is really, really, really good (for the most part). If you like what you hear, a bunch of his stuff is on Spotify - it's worth a listen.

Retsupurae is a top choice. The guys who basically invented Let's Plays let's play other people's Let's Plays (with some exceptions). They're absolutely merciless, but if you like MST3K, you'll probably find something to like.

Errant Signal is somewhat like Extra Credits, except he tends to go a lot more in depth. He also often critiques game narratives and mechanics, analyzing them in the same way one might analyze a novel.

And while not a channel, I am sad that Red Letter Media never made more Game Station 2.0...

I just checked out his channel really interesting stuff. It is a definite sub for me. I like how he explained the hidden tutorial.

MindCrack is now considered a large and popular franchise.

Guude, who created it, did not get the hit of subs. I believe he deserves much, much more.
If you've ever watched his MindCrack series, you'll see just how fucking hilarious that man is.

    I wonder if that was the point of game streaming
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    But it's a dead end
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @Psionic Roshambo, people who cant download it can still play the game
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    If your internet speeds are fast enough. Streaming 4k takes alot. I used to only have 20mb sec, and 4k struggled. Now I have 300mb sec and 4k plays fine.

    @BigOnYa, i only have like 1 or 2 mb sec

    Did you feed the hamster in your internet router? It prob died and is running slow now.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, why did you start saying my pc has a hamster in the first place?

    Its actua!ly just a old joke, meaning its slow. Was just kidding around with you.

    I bet @AncientBoi has some hamsters hidden somewhere tho....

    I think Game streaming should work like this.... Local Hardware able the run the game fine, game engine and common assets stored locally, all FMV and music and textures could be streaming

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Some temporary storage
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    also @BigOnYa im making some progress on my gdevelop project, implemented various mechanics
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They went all in on streaming, should have been more of a hybrid approach

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Or free government supplied high speed internet be nice also. Like Obama care. Xdqwerty that's cool, its time consuming but rewarding once done or playable, to see what you've made from scratch. Animations take forever, but worth it.

    @BigOnYa, although the bullets are a bit buggy

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Not to mention this would be a massive pain to pirate
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa,
    and the visual aspect of the game is quite crude (the sprite that looks best is that of the protagonist just because he is a stickman with sunglasses)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    There is a bullets behaviour you assign to your character, that makes the code easier, under "behaviours"
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    i meant that when the character is pointing to the right, the bullets spawn where they should, but when he is on the right, they move to the right but the spawn point is incorrect
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Itch.io has lots of free assets also. Under the bullets behavior tab, there is a "rotate bullets" option, can try that. Or in the code can try
    - fire bullet Player.X(PlayerDirection)

    That's cool tho, I'm proud of you going back to it, not giving up. It is difficult at first to learn, but fun once you get the hang of it. I think I've watched every tutorial video there is, but I still struggle sometimes to get stuff to work right. But gotta keep trying dif things, and eventually you will get it right.
