Recommend your favorite YouTube channels

[Envy Omicron]

Well this first one is a two in one the guy he is talking about is likely my favorite but the guy talking is good as well.

Spoiler: Grappling Ignorance

If you are looking for something a little more funny, or not an atheist, then MrBTongue.

Spoiler: MrBTongue

You might know him if you payed any attntion to the Mass Effect 3 ending controversy.

Yup, ninja'd again. Well, I do have some other Youtubers (mostly gaming related for the sake of this thread) that I would like to recommend for those interested (I apologize in advance if the embeds are broken).

First off, joshscorcher/Fiery Joker, I was initially introduced to his channel by his gaming countdowns, although nowadays he mostly does MLP reviews and unscripted Q&As, but I still enjoy most of his content, even when I disagree.

Spoiler: joshscorcher/Fiery Joker

Next, a package deal between Errant Signal and Spoiler Warning. Errant Signal is a series of video essays dedicaded to analysing and criticizing (what else) video games. Spoiler Warning is a let's play series that focuses less on comedy and more on, you guessed it, analysis and criticism. It's kind of like Errant Signal, only without a script, and with four people, which allows for a more diverse array of opinions bouncing off of one another. The series is hosted by (amongst others) Chris Franklin, who also hosts Errant Signal, and Shamus Young, writer of Experienced Points.

Spoiler: Errant Signal

Spoiler: Spoiler Warning

Finally, Super Bunnyhop. Much of the same kind of material as the previous two (noticing a reoccuring trend in my tastes in Youtube videos yet?) but with some Mr. Plinkett/JonTron-esque humor thrown into the mix.

Spoiler: Super Bunnyhop

It's also fair to note that most of these Youtubers can be VERY longwinded.

 

[Diablo1099_v1legacy]

Miles923 aka Max is basically the best when it comes to a variety of fighting games and comedy.
http://www.youtube.com/user/Miles923

YES! I'M NOT THE ONLY PERSON ON THIS SITE WHO KNOWS HIM! XD

Don't forget his YoVideogames Channel, I ain't an expert in LPing, but I think he has a good handle on it.

Aside from Resi 3 ._.

 

[Greg White]

EpicNameBro is a good source for anything Souls related and he's also working on Vagrant Story and Disgaea D2, but his uploads have slowed down a good bit since his kid was born.

BohemianEagle (aka The Mighty Jingles) does War Thunder and World of Tanks mostly.

Then there's AngryJoeShow. Pretty decent game reporter, entertaining, if honest, game reviewer(he's gone to Gamestop and demanded his money back for a horrible Sonic game), and I find most of his opinions fall more or less in line with my own.

 

[War Penguin]

Definitely ffstv

The first episode of their Heavy Rain playthrough made me actually laugh my ass off (I miss my ass...)

Yes! YES!!! YYYEEESSS!!! Oh god! Yes! Thank you! I am not the only one on the Escapist who knows of Video Games Awesome! I'm so happy! :'D

However... I'm curious as to why you chose not to include the greatest moment of VGA history...


So yeah... farfromsubtle. Check them out...

 

[DSK-]

I'll refrain from putting my channel on here because chances are no one here would like it or I'd get a warning.

Anywho, I like to watch http://www.youtube.com/user/HDstarcraft, http://www.youtube.com/user/day9tv and http://www.youtube.com/user/LifesAGlitchTV for Starcraft 2 stuff. I like keeping up to date on stuff from time to time.

If I want a laugh I'll go on over to http://www.youtube.com/user/Robbaz because I find him hilarious.

Bunnyhopshow: http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=bunnyhopshow&oq=bunnyhopshow&gs_l=youtube.3..0i10.111.590.0.876.4.4.0.0.0.0.228.680.0j2j2.4.0...0.0...1ac.1.11.youtube.e0mFt_5T0aU

Great channel with some of the best analytical videos about gaming on the web. Just watch Critical Close up: Metal Gear Solid 2. You'll be sold on these guys. They also update every Tuesday with "Lets try to plays" and/or "Indie reviews".

 

[piinyouri]

Spoiler: Some piano covers of assorted metal songs and other styles

Spoiler: Man At Arms (Blacksmith show)

AWE Me [http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNKcMBYP_-18FLgk4BYGtfw]

Spoiler: Video game hilarity

Azuritereaction [http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjvQ1f0-YUbzoVBOb9urdWg]
I initially watched this guy for his Rock band drum playthroughs back in the day, but he's branched out a lot. Your mileage is going to vary quite a bit as he's very loud and obnoxious, but sometimes I find him absolutely hilarious.

Spoiler: I am sure everyone knows about Epic Rap Battles, but if you haven't checked this out as well, you should

EpicLloyd [http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUdiuVBzkLAbNb-NdZZf4Ag]
Epic Lloyd or Lloyd Alquist is the other half of the two guys who do ERB and I find his solo stuff pretty good, both his raps and comedy.

Spoiler: Extreme metal news and assorted other things

Infidelamsterdam [http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCTp0MnlTlmqC3NdrPzD08EA]
Pretty fun metal news/Q&A/ type channel headed by a pretty chill and seemingly cool dude.

Spoiler: Drum craziness

Mike Glozier [http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCxXga7NXGFn-Ny7I-BfjQ1A]
First caught my eye with a cover of Venetian Snares track Gentlemen, and it was quite fucking awesome. He's recently resurfaced and begun doing vids again. Probably only of interest to drummers.
Andrea Vadrucci [http://www.youtube.com/user/vadrum]
Pretty old and I imagine everyone has heard of him by now, but Vadrum has long long been a favorite of mine and it's been real fun watching him go from video game covers to giving his take on classical music.

Spoiler: Vocal covers

Will Shaw [http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFDwee105LBbEJ3SP4bFVmQ]
Pretty good aspiring(or possibly working) singer. Covers tons of power and progressive metal, as well as lots of things inbetween.

Spoiler: Music reviews

The Needle Drop [http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCt7fwAhXDy3oNFTAzF2o8Pw]
You're most likely going to hate this or love it. Lots of reviews for all kinds of music.

Spoiler: Food and metal

Vegan Black Metal Chef [http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCp3iXxis9n_E_GfbE-_ksFw]
Humourous, entertaining and educational!
It's a pretty cute little channel, though he does give real recipies and show's you (kind of) how to make them.

 

[Artina89]

Here are a few of mine:

Eatmydiction1
Gassymexican
Lolrenaynay
xCloud8745x
vivalacloud8745
DarkxideX
Yahtzee19

Most of the channels I am subscribed to are video game channels, but in the case of gassymexican, lolrenaynay and eatmydiction1, I love how they interact, they are hilarious, especially when they are together. Here is an example,


As for xCloud8745x, I remember his old Cloud8745 channel, and his boss video's can actually be quite helpful, and his My immortal dramatic reading with DarkxideX is hilarious. I like vivalacloud8745 because they have uploaded some of Cloud8745's old video's. I like re watching his old Silent Hill, Silent Hill 2 and Silent Hill 3 videos.

As for Yahtzee19, I believe he needs no explanation, but his walkthroughs with his friend Gabe are hilarious.

 

[superpandasauras]

I would have to say Marriland https://www.youtube.com/user/Marriland
The guy is known for his Pokemon LP's and not much else, however, these LP's are usually entertaining and helpful.
He likes to do Nuzlockes on his channel, as of late, and if you want an emotional Pokemon Journey, his Heartgold Wedlocke is amazing.

 

[Gone Rampant]

Music wise, I'm gonna go with Lindsey Stirling: http://www.youtube.com/user/lindseystomp, who is probably my favorite violinist in the world.

There's also this guy named LinkThe1st: http://www.youtube.com/user/Linkthe1st who does good, informative guides on Bethesda-developed games. He had a short lived Machinima series named Elements of Play, but recently joined The Game Station. Also, he's doing a bi-weekly playthrough of Fallout 3 (Goes up on Saturdays, next episode is this coming Saturday).

And for comedy LPs/Comedy in general, there's TheAuzzieGamer (Previously mentioned), http://www.youtube.com/user/CardGamesFTW?feature=c4-feed-c YuGiOh Abridged and How It Should Have Ended (Also previously mentioned).

 

[Zhadramekel]

Since the end of last year, I've really started enjoying watching YouTuber's who make video game countdowns but joshscorcher has to be my favourite. There's other really good ones like rabbidluigi, peanut3423 (The Autarch) and PeanutButterGamer.

And despite the former channel seeming a bit mundane at first glance, Stephen Georg's stephenvlog and stephenplays are pretty great. Seriously, anybody who can vlog for almost four years and still be going strong, not to mention making a career out of doing that and playing video games, is awesome.

 

[MasterMasamune]

Brutalmoose [http://www.youtube.com/channel/UC18ju52OET36bdewLRHzPdQ], Caddicarus [http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOkL7q2SeGZeZuj22njMYEA], ProJared [http://www.youtube.com/channel/UC2e0bNZ6CzT-Xvr070VaGsw], and PeanutButterGamer [http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRBkeMoYX02w-0qVIKNkruw]. All of them review games, but each of them has their own unique style to reviewing. PBG and Jared were also part of Normal Boots, which the previously mentioned JonTron and Continue? were part of.

Yungtown [http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHBXe3D3JT0pGY37_0C8G2w] is part of Hidden Block, the same website Brutalmoose and Caddicarus are on. He does Top 10s (and Top 5s, in the case of one video), but he's rarely serious about any of the topics he discusses. He also raps, his most popular and my personal favorite being his Ocarina of Time rap, "Hyrule Field" [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9v3glaYfl1k].

TolstoyKafkaEvsky [http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCK4WUtNsLn6T7DLZ2GDxxIQ] mostly vlogs about a wide range of topics with occasional comments about a certain item, usual a weapon or figure ("plastic crap", as he calls it). He calls his videos "reviews", but even he acknowledges how long it takes him to get to the actual review in an average video. He also manages to be intelligent about politics, religion, literature and the like. As a fair warning, TKE cares very, very little about being politically correct, so if that kind of thing offends you, you might want to avoid his channel.

 

[Tom_green_day]

I really like [The] Syndicate [Project] he seems like a really nice dude, not really opinionated or a dick like so many youtubers.
Also xKapowned (Murkah Durkah or something) is mentioned much, but he sometimes has some interesting stuff to say. Of course there's Yogscast, not sure if they've been mentioned in this thread, but they come from my hometown so they get cred from me. Been getting into Alchestbreach a bit too, his New Vegas mod videos are interesting.

 

[Griffolion]

Basically anything funny and under 15 minutes is ideal. Birgirpall is another good example. His recent Star Trek video gave me a coughing fit from laughing so much.

Agreed, Birgirpall is so funny, and I have no idea why. But he just is!


My favourites:

 

[Aedes]

Not a single mention to [a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/CGPGrey"]C.G.P. Grey[/a] yet?
Shame on you, escapists!

His last one was quite WTF.

Spoiler: I like to feel WTF.
