Youtube gaming directory

Anyone know of any good gameplay channels to subscribe to?

My plan here is to compile a list of gaming channels. I'm always coming across new channels and who knows what good shit I'm missing out on.

Some rules.
They must be about games obviously, but they can be anything gaming related. Challenge runs, speedruns, glitches, analyses, documentaries, retrospectives, tournaments, tech, etc. You get the idea.

If possible, when you post a channel, add some quick details on what the channel contains. If it features different types of content, you don't have to go overboard. Just give a general description. You can even just say something like various content I guess. Just list a few of them. If you're not 100% accurate it's no big deal.

I'm also fine with just saying what you personally know them for, if their content is all over the place. For example I have a few channels I only subscribed to because of a few videos on a single game, other than that, I have no idea what the rest of their stuff is.

To start off, here's a few examples from my subscriptions.

Glitches, sequence breaks, speedrunning stuff for various games.

Shadowserg
Not a fan of this channel. This is gonna sound weird, but this guy does no damage boss videos, while not actually playing well. Like he has no knowledge of advanced mechanics. It's weird. I've only watched a few and the Chaos Legion and God Hand ones are particularly horrible. At times I couldn't understand how he avoided damage lol.

Shesez
This is the Boundary Break guy. Great series.
https://www.youtube.com/user/PencakeAndWuffle/featured

Gamechamp3000
Tons of stuff but I only watch VG Myths. This is a series where they do a challenge based on a questions like, 'Can you beat Mario Odyssey without jumping?' They then attempt this. Sometimes it's not 100% possible so they have a counter. Sometimes they use speedrunning glitches or sequence breaks. Really interesting to see what they come up with and I find them highly entertaining even if I've never played the games.
https://www.youtube.com/user/Gamechamp3000

Good idea, was thinking about a list like this. Do you think you could update your OP with the posts of others? Think that might look good, then we can sort of arrange a bigger list. Just an idea.

Here are my suggestions

There's some others like TimmyGun, MoluJPN and TKMO but they don't upload nearly as often anymore (or at all).

Yep, will just copy/paste any entries not long after they come up. I'm off to bed now so I'll add yours after work tomorrow. I've got quite a few more to add too.

Also, feel free to add anyone even if they don't upload and the channels are dead, or if they barely have any stuff. I've found some good shit on such channels before.

I can provide NGS2 channels from friends of mine, who are capable of insane challenge runs or moments of magic. Most of these players are on my friend list and I have played with them a lot!

Orlin12 - HD NGS2 videos, everything from speed runs, karma, challenge runs including clearing Master Ninja difficulty with counter and obliteration only!

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCU92Bh762QyPGm3gC249Rkw

Some pro NGS2 players do not have a YouTube channel, sadly. Might as well put my channel in for consideration lol

Phorus - Nioh, NGS2, FF 10, Morrowind, Demon Souls, Dark Souls 1 and 2, Fighting games.

https://www.youtube.com/user/Phorus1987

Nice additions. I've added them to the opening post and added some of my own. Still have so many more in my subscriptions but I'll post them over the next few days. Some channels I haven't looked at for ages and need to refresh my memory as to what they're about.

And damn right, feel free to promote yourselves. I just subscribed. Also, if the channel has anything in the 'about' section, you can just copy that description over. I totally forgot about it.

I'm going to watch Joe The Button's PN03 run on the weekend. Really looking forward to it. Will post my thoughts in the PN03. Will also examine each channel posted for more goodies of interest. This topic is already working wonders.

Great stuff! That said, I think we can also be honest and pug our own in there. So you can add Birdman and Raeng ;D

I've added everything I have at the moment. Will update whenever I find a related channel.
