Your favorite underrated Youtuber

[Mel Theofficegamergirl]

Underrated? Me! Youtube.com/meltheofcgamergirl
I cover super obscure games. I post this here in this thread because I would go back and watch my own videos. There's lots of great games in there. Also, convention coverage and other random vids.

Gotta go with Barutazaru, better known as Thew from Thew's Awesome Transformer Reviews. He's relatively well-known within the Transformer community, but unless you're a collector like me, you've probably never heard of him.

He's sort of like the Yahtzee of Transformer reviews, reviews that are informative, but are more about being really entertaining. Here's a few of my favorites:

[Mr.Philip]

PBG(Peanut Butter Gamer) He does video game reviews and top tens, also "G-Files" in which he talks about weird things in video games. http://www.youtube.com/user/PeanutButterGamer/videos?view=0

Spoiler: one of his videos

Also ProJared, he does longer video game reviews, usually around ten to twenty minutes, but he also does 'one minute reviews' which (of course) are brief one minute reviews of a game. http://www.youtube.com/user/DMJared/videos?view=0
He also only has 41K subscribers, I'd say he deserves a lot more.

Spoiler: one of his videos

 

[recurve6]

Retsupurae is the greatest internet achievement in history, followed closely by...

BillyMC. Guys, BillyMC is indescribable.

Also, JonTron is hilarious and awesome.

 

[Palademon]

P.S. I would've posted about foreverpandering, but for some reason he took down his videos. If anyone knows why, please quote me.

I believe he might've been copyright claimed since videos in the past had been.

 

[Moderated]

Thank you OP. Subscribed.
Anyway, I don't really pay attention to how popular people are, but I don't think most people irl know about psychicpebbles.

 

[Starik20X6]

Excellent choice OP.

There are a couple I'm going to shout out. First is Olan Rogers [http://www.youtube.com/user/OlanRogers]. He's a fantastic storyteller, which makes all his vlogs, skits and series really stand out.


I'm also going to mention BriTANicK [http://www.youtube.com/user/BriTANicKdotcom]. They put out a new skit once in a blue moon, but they're always worth the wait.

Spoiler: Sample of BriTANicK:

 

[J. MB]

Ashens, if he counts as underrated by anybody here.
He reviews cheap and/or old crap, funny stuff.

 

[NinjaSocks333]

A man by the name of chickenkeeper24, who's 50+ part series on the Kerbal Space Program helped me get off the ground (Pun intended)

 

[Mr Dizazta]

I've been asked a lot about all of my avatars and the guy who's in them:

Spoiler: you know, these avatars

which is great, because I feel that the guy deserves more attention on YouTube. His name is Brian Firenzi, and I think that's he's one of the last guys on Youtube left with any artistic integrity.

If you recognize him, it's probably from VGHS (The Law) or 5 Second Films, but I want to bring attention to the stuff he does on his own, because it is...awesome.

Spoiler: a sample of his work

So, Escapist, what's the Youtuber that you feel deserves more attention?

P.S. I would've posted about foreverpandering, but for some reason he took down his videos. If anyone knows why, please quote me.

And all this time I thought he was the Master.

 

[Theminimanx]

Spoiler warning is probably my favorite LP group, because they manage to combine insightful commentary with random nonsense. You may recognise some of them as Chris from Errant Signal and Shamus Young from Stolen Pixel and Experienced points. Shame their videos barely get any views.
They recently started a season on the Walking Dead, you may want to check it out.

Spoiler: Spoiler Warning

Though I think their New Vegas Season is probably their best.

Spoiler: Spoiler Warning

 

[Soviet Heavy]

Retsupurae is the greatest internet achievement in history, followed closely by...

BillyMC. Guys, BillyMC is indescribable.

Also, JonTron is hilarious and awesome.

JonTron's Birdemic review got me hooked on him. (Dramatic Sunglasses pull) "A Billian Dallas!?"

Billy's Christmas present from McDonalds. That had me in stitches. That and Retsupurae's Deep Fear LP were glorious to behold.

Now to throw my own recommendations in: FanOfWar40K and The Alfa Legion

They are the living incarnations of Warhammer silliness.

Spoiler

Also look up Alfabusa's buddies, Nexus (more nemesis than buddy), EliphasTheInheritor, and Names04. BigDickChaney is another excellent video maker. His music augmented Dawn of War clips are awesome to behold.

 

[Samurai Rabbit]

Samurai Rabbit of course.... Oh wait that's me!

 

[Scarecrow]

My favorite underated person would be "theothercheese".

She makes very interesting TF2 videos about playing a class in a different way:



And is an amazing artist:


Go and subscribe....now! Scarecrow orders you!

 

[Patrick Buck]

Criken2.
Oh god Criken, you're so awesome. He edits well, he's funny, and he's so goddamn CUTE.

 

[Idlemessiah]

Spumwack. He used to be called TheMinecraftMuse but now he does LPs of other stuff too. His Black Mesa Source LP is fantastic.

 

[Buck Wilde]

Lots of Tf2 Gmod video makers are underrated such as http://www.youtube.com/user/doctorheredoctor and http://www.youtube.com/user/EthioMod
Well, maybe they're not that underrated judging by the total video views but I think they need more subscribers. Also http://www.youtube.com/user/xPrEpWnEdx is, most of his stuff is source film maker or Michael Rosen YTP videos.

Spoiler: Warning: pony content

My absolute favorite, despite having only a few videos has to be http://www.youtube.com/user/MCurley though. All satirical videos about the xbox live community (the trash talkers on there). I would've said halo videos but you don't have to be a halo fan to enjoy them.

[Lola Lazerface]

Motherfucking QualiaSoup [http://www.youtube.com/user/QualiaSoup].


His videos are such comprehensive, neat little introductions to things like critical thought and the philosophy of science. Great stuff when in an informal discussion you don't have the patience to explain it yourself.


Also LOrientalist [http://www.youtube.com/user/Lorientalist/videos?flow=grid&view=0].


A critical but unbiased and thorough look at the history of all things Islamic. What sets him apart is that he's genuinely scholarly, actually shows his sources (which typically include Islamic scholars), and unlike most critics of Islam on YouTube isn't a dishonest right wing nutjob. (When right wing nutjobs started using his videos as masturbation material he was quick to point out just how fucking dishonest their propaganda tends to be.)

Enjoy!

He wanted to be known for his original music not his parodys. He also thought the rants were getting a little weak near the end.

Ken AshCorp, That guy makes great music, just amazing.

This is one of his current accounts.

 

[Ljs1121]

My favorite Youtuber of all time is Tenjinmoop, but he sadly stopped making videos about two years ago.

Also, even though a few people have already mentioned him, I'll go with Nerd³ as well(ooh fancy cubed symbol).

CrystalStarStudio deserves a mention as well, though I haven't watched many of their videos at all recently so they might be terrible now. They were pretty good a few years ago, though.
