Youtube Channels of Cromulent Quality

For playthroughs, I got reeled into Strange Rebel Gaming because of her TLOU videos. Even though watching her play stealth sections was deeply frustrating, her headshot game is on point, plus, she's funny as hell. Also, I think I bought HZD just to watch her playthroughs of that.

Already well-represented in the game-related lols thread, but few things in this life are of as consistently high quality as danielfromsl. And hey, wouldja look at that, he has a newish video that I haven't seen yet!

(I hope that is cromulent, plz don't hate me if it is not cromulent.)

bump

not because i have good suggestions, but because i've been watching more and more videogame stuff on youtube but feel like there's probably good obvious stuff i'm missing.

channels that do analyses of game design, stuff like game soup or indigo gaming - any suggestions like that? i feel like dr casino linked to a very very good channel recently and i can't seem to find either the channel or the post where he linked to it

if you're into speed running at all, the world record progression videos by summoning salt are good: http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCtUbO6rBht0daVIOGML3c8w

if you're into vintage computers, then 8bit guy is your guy: http://www.youtube.com/user/adric22

not videogame related, but nilered's videos are excellent-- i don't know anything about chemistry but it's kinda like watching bob ross paint or something: hxxps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eZ56LDCABrA

Most likely I'll be unable to pay for a ps5 and GTA 6 when it comes out, so I'm going to be on the hunt for someone of cromulent quality to watch along with. If anyone has any recommendations - loud and shouty need not apply

Over the years I've dipped in and out of Fightin Cowboy, mostly for his excellent and thorough From guides and walkthroughs. As is always the case these days, I try to suss out a streamer's politics, because I don't want to support assholes. And this guy, on paper/screen, is so may red flags. He's a huge vaping bodybuilding capital B Bro that lives in the south (Tennessee?) who plays games, so of course I expect the worst. But over the years I've been able to piece together his politics, as careful as he often is to keep them quiet (he's spoken out in support of inclusivity and representation, he's raised money for abortion providers, that sort of thing). But the other day I came across this livestream rant he did where he outright calls out racists and bigots in his chats and comments in a really directed, intelligent and earnest way, and I was impressed:

He actually addresses the irony toward the end, basically, "I am a white straight male, 6'1", who owns firearms and lives in Tennessee, I am exactly the kind of guy people hold up as an exemplar of alpha male masculinity, but I am not down with pushing down other groups of people."
