Quote from: kobayashi;976344I enjoy Tetsubo's RPG videos because most of the time I disagree with him. It allows me to see things from a different perspective which is always good.

I was a big fan of his show years ago for the same reason. He loves Pathfinder and 3.x and I'm a Palladium/GURPS guy. Then he started doing way too many political videos and I felt if I replied he'd block me.


I like Quest Wise because he does Palladium content:

Quote from: The Exploited.;976496I really don't like the newer 'whizz bang wow' factor for people who are just trying to get 'subs'.

The ones I prefer generally don't have 'fancy' production values, musical opening title segments, or carefully man-scaped presenters who talk like infomercial personalities.
I like people who come off as just hobbyists sharing their enthusiasm, not trying to come off as showmen or experts.

Tetsubo remains firmly on my 'don't watch' list... disagreeing is one thing, but the guy is just irritating. I'm not aware of his political leanings though.

I'm the same! HD videos with swirling graphics and a funky theme tune. Ugh! 'Infomercial' type speaking... Haw! that's brilliant and so true.

Also, the bigger the channel the reviews suddenly tend to get a bit skewed, after all, everyone likes to get free stuff.  So they are unlikely to give out bad reviews. Reminds me of the video game mags. That said, 'Talking About Games' gets free stuff all the time to review. But he always discloses it and I feel does a genuine review. A few years back with the old youtubers you'd see genuine reviews warts and all!

As for Tetsubo I totally agree... irregardless of his political leanings he's pretty obnoxious at the best of times. Now, I do like a bit of social commentary but only when it's put forward by someone who applies logic to everything as opposed to just someone ranting and raving away and preaching at the choir.

Questing Beast does really nice OSR reviews and mapping tutorials.

I've only recently started watching some of Invictus's Call of Cthulhu videos.  I generally lose interest in watching other people play pretty quickly, but the production values are nice enough and their personalities non-abrasive enough that I've managed a couple episodes.

He does some great OSR book walk throughs!

Questing Beast is good.
