Good gaming channels???

Me!!!! 8D

Okay, not jokingly, I still watch Markiplier, even though Yamimash is apparently only doing FNAF clones I still really like the guy, Lordminion777 is a lot of fun, RaedwulfGamer, CoryxKenshin IMO doesn't get enough love because he's a LOT of fun (even if the Bible verses at the end of every ep kinda feel awkward), 2 Best Friends Play is a channel that SHOULD be one of the biggest of all, I also like DashieGames for being ridiculous.

Hell I won't even claim I don't have fun with PDP sometimes, even though he absolutely sucks at mic levels (then again, so does Yami).

I LOVE Markiplier. I mean really. I would be a crazy Fan girl, but I am too sane for that. He is so nice and Sincere. Recently I could care less about Pewdiepie. His quality has gone
Down... I hope he gets through this faze. He played Life is Strange but I got so
Mad at him. He became so disrespectful with the game. I hold on for hope he will change but doubt it. Even I noticed how he acts with his girlfriend is a bit disrespectful.

Mark was who inspired me to start LP'ing, honestly. And people I've shown him to usually go "yep I can see why you'd like this guy so much." I've taken a lot of cues from him, not necessarily in personality but sort of in presentation. I feel like in a lot of ways he is THE Lets Player.

Pewds is an odd case for me. I don't subscribe and I don't really watch much of his stuff. I feel like he REALLY caters to a younger crowd (early teens) with the way his jokes are done, so a lot of it just kinda makes my eyes roll more than anything, but I like what he does overall. And people who have watched a lot of his videos have told me he can be pretty rough when it comes to gender issues.

Oh and jeez, dlive22891! He's a lot more low key than most, but he's definitely entertaining.
 
Something seems slightly off about that channel. They have over 22,000 subscribers but going through their videos almost all of them are under 1,000 views and maybe a dozen comments. Either they have a seriously unengaged fanbase or a lot of those subscribers aren't legit.

I am in no way hating, that just struck me as weird to see a 22,000+ subbed channel with a featured video at 900 views.
 
I'm not sure myself but I've been a subscriber since @Wreckless Eating 's Matt and Tom began the channel. He has been periodically plugging his channel in his normal WE videos but I'm not sure why the viewcount is fairly low. However, I find the content quite amusing.
 
Thaaaaaat might be it. Since it's connected to his other channel they have a lot of crossover subs but a lot of those people aren't as interested in that as they are the main. Makes sense.

It just threw me is all. I admit that's a worry of mine that I'll get a surprise boost of subs but no actual audience engagement.

https://www.youtube.com/user/LordMinion777 LordMinion777 keeps his footage mostly raw, he based his channel off that completely, he got his big boost from being friends with Markiplier but has done well to maintain the channel on his own. I can't stomach un-edited content too much, especially if the commentator isn't that entertaining or has a lot of quiet moments, so I only watch his channel on occasion but I do still enjoy watching his group/multiplayer LPs. As for reactions, sometimes I can't tell if he's being genuine or not although he did make a vlog explaining that he does try to express his reactions more instead of keeping them to himself which is understandable when it comes to gaming and being immersed, I had the exact same problem when I started out and still do today.

https://www.youtube.com/user/TheSw1tcher Two Best Friends Play / TheSw1tcher is another channel reknowned for full blown group let's plays that are kept raw, only raw channel I can stomach the most really, although Matt has started a No More Heroes solo LP, surprisingly he does really well solo too. These guys have special series' as well like Friday Night Fisticuffs which is bascially them playing a single fighting game for like 1hr or something, they do Shitstorm specials for halloween and just play as many horror type games as they can within an allotted period usually 30days or so. The only time they edit is when they have vids on Machinima Respawn (part of their contract) they do sometimes do sports games but primarily wrestling games, nothing like Fifa though. Their vids can range anywhere between 20mins to 1hr long, usually the one off vids are 1hour long. Sometimes they do LPs with 2 people, sometimes they do it with all 4 or sometimes 3, very, very rarely 1. They even have random skits and some vlog style vids every now and then, also do 3hr podcasts lol In fact they were the first channel I subbed to and an inspiration for my couch LPs.

https://www.youtube.com/user/TheRPGMinx TheRPGMinx sometimes keeps her footage raw too but does cut out the boring bits here and there, her reactions actually still seem genuine, the benefit with her is that she really doesn't care what a lot of people think so she does her own thing without forcefully trying to impress too much, at least from what I can see.

https://www.youtube.com/user/AlloySevenVideo AlloySeven is a good small channel, he's the guy you'll probably recognise mostly for his copyright tutorials on YouTube but he does tutorials, does vlogs, LPs, reviews and stuff like that. He started a recent series called "Gamer Life" which is a vlog series. He used to be on these forums but he said something happened and he couldn't log on anymore for some reason, kind of sad the community would benefit from his info.

https://www.youtube.com/user/xXBlubearXx BlueBear is another 1, actually a user on this forum, she edits but her content does come off raw-ish so you're getting the whole works too, there's boring bits obviously cut out. She does how tos for WoW and even started a recent leveling LP for WoW. Does other LPs as well.[DOUBLEPOST=1422961353,1422961191][/DOUBLEPOST]Omg how could I forget Cryaotic not subbed to him but he has an awesome voice and does raw LPs from what I know. https://www.youtube.com/user/ChaoticMonki
 
A big fan of jacksepticeye at the minute and it's nice to see the growth as i remember when he had under a million subs.

Mark and Cry are my Inspirations. They are both great people. Both is extremely different but they are foot at what they do. Mark is sure THE let's player. He is so good! His caring personality is the best.

I liked pewdiepie, during my younger years. But now I am 22 years old and noticed just how rude and immature he really is. I roll my eyes a bit too much when I listen to him now-a-days. XD
