I just unsubscribed to TotalBiscuit today. Been too long since I watched anything of him, tried 5min of the latest video but I don't feel like watching a man say in 50min what could easily be said in 5. Plus, I believe I may have found what I think is his alt, being his usual condescending prick, in his subreddit.

That actually has been happening often to me lately, where I go very long without watching a channel's videos because I slowly got sick of it.

I might have completed my purge of all my subscribed channels. But now I don't have much left to watch.

What good Youtube channels out there would you recommend?
Few of my favorites;

History Buffs;

Kruger sightings;
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyfZleh4w7buTzi0WfY8WqA

The great war;

The piano Guys;

I don't watch that much youtube...but I kind of like Key of awesome:

Their parodies of stupid music videos are pretty funny.
Could use more content, but what it got, I like:

ChipCheezum and Ironicus.
A running thing you'll notice with my suggestions is that they're all Something Awful goons. That's because SA goons actually know how to make let's play, consindering they were the ones who mastered, codified, and practically began the art as we know it. They're informative, funny, and one of the few who offer a version where they cut the mic over cutscenes. As far as I can tell, there has been no stupid drama between them, their fanbases, or their spouses/girlfriends. One even works at Volition as a video producer, so that's how good it gets.

Ashens. I'm sure most have heard of him. He's the fellow with the brown sofa who makes fun of cheap toys. Seems normal for Norwich.

Deceased Crab. Not actually deceased, but more often dormant than active. Some of his early content is hard to watch due to his vocal quality often being, "Tin can and string", but he is the guy who basically put La-Mulana and Cave story on the map, helping to reboot PC gaming in general.

Chuggaaconroy. Bright, enthusiastic, informative, punmaker. Chugga is very much so a man of the people. Even if you hate his puns and your ears are blown off by his outbursts, one tends to find that he's a very charming guy otherwise, and he's very good at giving information, although he can get distracted and go on tangents.

Ah, ProtonJon. Another founding pillar of Let's Play, most people should have forgotten his long gone Kaizo Mario days. These days, he can primarily be found on Twich.TV, but he does occasionally do a traditional Let's Play, such as his recently concluded adventures in gambling, of Wario Land I.

Slowbeef. You can't really mention Let's play without realizing that this goon basically made it the art that it is. PewDiePie may have ruined the art, but Slowbeef is the Father Chronos.

There, that aughta get you started.
Lindybeige is really very good.
Lazy Game Reviews, PushingUpRoses, Ashens, Techmoan, Accursed Farms, gggmanlives, Jim Gisriel, Larry Bundy Jr., Ashens, kaptainkristian, The Gaming Historian, Game Sack, My Life in Gaming, Techmoan, PtoPOnline, A Dose of Buckley, brutalmoose, and GoodBadFlicks.
I only watch his SC2 content now, just dropped everything else he does. I never had time for his podcast, and the things he does with his wife is really far from my center of interests.
I'd like to tell you that there are a lot of great stufff on MrBtongue channel, but also his presence is one of the most uncertain thing in the universe.
I don't really know TotalBiscuit, but here are some of mine recommendation.

Academy of Ideas (philosophy)

Larry Bundy Jr (he have some excellent console gaming history videos)

Matt Barton (best PC gaming history channel, he interviews people like John Romero and Lord British)

SupraDarky (he just upload game soundtracks, good ones though)

Sharkee (better than Vsauce)

Deep Astronomy (space fan news)

Lindybeige (don't need introduction unless you haven't heard of him)

Trey the explainer (dinosaurs)

(I'll let you decide for yourself, if you don't believe one have to agree with everything someone said to be a subscriber, you may enjoy him. If you're a SJW or easily offended, he's your enemy. His '[url=https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmirOw7JCi80hHqPysFvmPzEMjko66cYw]Metal Mythos' and 'Cinema' series should at least be checked out though.)

SFBTV (driving in russia, not updated much anymore, but still fun.)

Promoting my own thread and a few youtubers that I'm very found of :)

https://www.gog.com/forum/general/youtube_game_criticsreviewersindepth_analysis_recomendations

And thinking about it, that list needs some updates.
Ahoy (neé XboxAhoy) is one of the best gaming channels out there. Precise Hit and Errant Signal are also good sources of more insightful gaming commentary too, IMO.

I also have a soft spot for BdobbinsFTW, who has some pretty good nuggets of commentary amidst his lengthy rants directed at games like COD and Destiny (his video comparing porn ruining sex, to COD ruining gaming is rather amusing).
I been watching a lot of

Pat the Nes punk
EEVBlog
Ashens
jerryrigeverything
THE ATTACK
the ben heck show
neebs gaming
techmoan
johntron


and a lot of random videos on rain sounds for sleeping.

got bored of TB and Angry Joe in the late year, I feel the content for joe when it comes to his game reviews slowed down dramatically and he started doing a lot of movie and promo vids and TB talks a lot about SJW and crap related to that in gaming, But I still love Jesse Cox <3 and doger as well ^_^

I only watch Let's Play channels, I quickly grow tired of critics and other self-proclaimed "game experts". The only exception being Giant Bomb, but I don't really see them as reviewers or critics, but a bunch of guys talking about games.

So here are some folks I enjoy watching play games:

Scott Manley --- focuses on space games, plays lots of Kerbals
GirlGamerGaB --- a translator living in Japan, she mainly plays horror games, often Japanese ones I've never seen before
Greenspeak --- the Man, the Legend, plays through Dark Souls and Bloodborn games
Giant Bomb --- they play video games
theRadBrad --- here'a guy that seems genuinly happy to play games for a living
NukemDukem --- another guy who just likes playing games
MrKravin --- plays lots of horror games ... without screaming
HarshlyCritical --- more horror games ... and splending sarcasm

For some reason or other, I prefer watching people play games that I myself don't play.
