Something about Jacob Geller rubs me the wrong way I really love: Writing On Games https://www.youtube.com/c/WritingOnGames Razbuten (his series where his wife who has never played games plays games is very good and the reason his channel exploded) https://www.youtube.com/c/razbuten Folding Ideas doesn't talk about games that often, but his WoW and Fortnite videos are great (and his non game stuff is amazing) https://www.youtube.com/c/FoldingIdeas

Harrow posted:His WoW video is one of my favorites. It helps that I just am generally interested in MMOs as a genre and how they've developed over time, and it's cool to hear a perspective on what classic-style MMOs offer from someone who'd been playing the same game for its whole lifespan. honestly i could listen to him talk about anything. he should do audiobooks, he has a fantastic voice.

Vermain posted:It'd be remiss of me to not mention my favorite long-form video game essayist in this thread, Noah Caldwell-Gervais. Noah has a very strong novelistic style of writing that, combined with his presentation (a folksy "guy talking over a few beers" tone and a relatively barebones garage band-style recording setup), lends a warm atmosphere to his analysis that really draws you in. He's well read, has a lot of penetrating insights into the themes and flow of games as narrative experiences, has a wonderfully understated sense of humor, and is surprisingly candid about his own experiences when it comes to how he relates to the games he covers. Some of his old videos are rough around the edges - Noah hadn't quite mastered the fine art of audio mixing until around his Mad Max video - and there's next to no fancy editing, but the overwhelming majority of them are highly listenable and endlessly enjoyable. i love his stuff generally but i found his latest video to be kind of a miss... and it's 8 hours long
