Bisnap has the same problem although he apparently plays a fair few music games on stream that he can't post because of content ID matching.
Bisnap somewhat turned into a grumpy funsponge though, ever since he went "semi-pro" making LP's his sidegig instead of a hobby.

The real world will, again tomorrow, function and run without me.

The problem with Bisnap is that he doesn't edit his videos at all so you end up with hour long videos where he'll barely progress at all and it makes for incredibly unfun videos to watch.

Has anyone been following the React channel LPs? They're really only good for games you already know, but the interesting aspect is seeing multiple people's play styles. This is one where the games are actually the tiny part of the screen.

One of the best was having both elders and teens play the intro to The Last of Us.
Elders:

Teens:

There have been others -- the latest has the teens playing Portal. Notable about that is that they actually show appreciation for the self-esteem-boosting messages.

Apologies if this was posted already, searches only brought up the numerous mentions of the PewDiePie reaction video.

To go quickly is foolish. To go slowly is prudent. Not to go; that is wisdom.
Are there any good (read:edited) Breath of Fire: Dragon Quarter LPs around? Being at higher than 240x160 resolution and the LPer not making funny voices a plus.

So Youtube just told me about its great new "Trends" feature, which apparently gives me the hot new videos. This is not confined to gaming, and yet, five out of the top seven videos it shows me are Minecraft LPs. God drat, Germany.

I scrolled through the list it gave me and what do you know it's all awful pre-packaged templates for internet videos such as "x things you won't BELIEVE still exist" nobody should watch and political crap. Thankfully I did not get any LPs on my list.

I wish that they would do more multiplayer stuff or more puzzle games. I don't give a poo poo about watching a bunch of people play rear end Creed but I would love to see them playing something like Ultimate Chicken Horse or other multiplayer stuff.

After watching that one, I'm pretty sure that at least some of those kids have played the game before and were trying really hard to sound clueless, especially the light-haired girl. She seemed to know where the cameras you can knock down were by heart.

That's basically the aim of the series: Children who know exactly what they're looking at pretending very poorly that they don't, and adults who don't know what they're looking at overreacting to what are, in a video game, very mundane things.

I dunno, the kids and especially the teens often say it outright when they have played a certain game. I am willing to believe their reactions are genuine.

Posted a few times about Loading Ready Run, but here's one more. They're starting to dabble in non-streamed LPs with an Agrarian Skies 2 Minecraft LP and a heavily edited Fallout 4 LP. The Fallout 4 video is pretty good, though I can't speak for the Minecraft one since I haven't watched it.

Jon and Arin have at last appeared in a video together and joked around about Game Grumps for the finale of Jon's Star Wars media extravaganza adventure. It was a pretty good reveal. Now people can safely stop creeping on their lives looking for traces of their friendship being a miserable ruse that do not exist on subreddits such as conspiracygrumps.

Are there any good Halo 3 LPs out there? I doubt I'll ever get a 360 or xbone, but I still kinda want to know what's up with that space plant in Halo 2.

Well they've had a couple years to get over the stuff the caused their friendship to end so they could spend a couple hours together to film a skit to make their audiences happy.

Notice how Suzy doesn't show up in any of this though? You know, the one that caused them to stop being friends in the first place?

And Jon deliberately wrote humiliating lines for Arin to say like calling his own dad Hitler. Seems like a bit of bad blood is still there.

I TOTATLLY KNOW RIGHT. Just like the old saying, bros before ho's. But there's another saying that is relevant today because of Star Wars. Nookie before the Wookie.
