Which YouTuber still creates high-quality videos to this day?
Seeing the other post here about YouTuber that went downhill and seeing content creators I am familiar with makes me sad. But how about those that still makes great, high quality content?
You're viewing a single thread.
Late to this but I'll drop a niche list. They've all done fighting game content.
- Core-A Gaming
- GuileWinQuote
- TheoryFighter
- Leon Massey
Cant forget JMcrofts and Brian_F!
JM does standard youtube lists and clicky content but always well made. Brian does insightful SF6 commentary and gameplay.
Can throw Maximilian Dood in there if you want a bigger youtuber feel.
Button Check is a little edgier with some of his content but covers ALL FGC news and drama. Rooflemonger also does a lot of news and covers patches and great guides for games.
check has a lot of drama behind him & not a good one to support. Rooflemonger also another I don't support given how he's acted.
The others I'm less sure of as I don't religiously watch them. I think they pump out content much faster through twitch while the ones I listed definitely put in work for more unique videos.
Hi, I'm the other FGC member on Lemmy. Have my upvote :)
I like your list, too! TheoryFighter is a bit hard on the ears with that constant, droning heavy metal background noise, though. But that has been there from the start, so..
May I ask what your favorite fighting games are?
Not gonna lie, that's one of my favorite parts of TheoryFighter but I've acquired the metal taste over the years. I think it's all instrumental doom metal. Not a genre I'm too familiar with but I should give it a listen today.
When I was a kid my friend had a Super Nintendo and we used to play each other in SSF2, Mortal Kombat 2 and Killer Instinct. We then got into Mame and other CPS2 and KI specific emulators to play the arcade versions at home. This was way before I knew anything about actually playing the game, frame data and all.
I then took a break and really actually got into Fighting games as a typical '09er with Street Fighter IV. I played Bison and was semi-competent (A rank in Ultra, but never went to tournaments or anything).
Then came SF5 and I really didn't like it. Stopped playing again, but always kept watching EVO and other big tournaments.
So I'd say SF4 series is my favorite. I never really touched 3d or anime fighters. I tried getting into MVC3 when it released but that was just sensory overload for me lol How about you? :)
Damn, I'm a FGC zoomer. I did grow up on MK Trilogy, Smash, & KI Gold for the N64. Did play some rival schools, mvc2, & power stone on the Dreamcast along with all of 3D era Mortal Kombat on the OG Xbox.
I played MvC3 & UMvC3 for a year each after launch. I didn't know of the FGC or fundamental ideas like meaties so I was still an extreme casual pressing buttons. It wasn't until Killer Instinct 2013 where I found out about online brackets & the FGC. Went to my first offline thanks to that game.
Nowadays? SF6 is cool, Guilty Gear Strive is definitely a favorite but don't play it as much as I used to. Mortal Kombat 1 though? I'm hooked. I know I know. NRS player but man that game is 1000x better than MK11 in terms of gameplay. I've also been labbing Skullgirls on the side to play with a couple friends casually as we wait for Project L.
I'm also a fan of the indie games out there. Arcus Chroma, Punch Planet, lethal league blaze (not really a FG but still slaps), your only move is hustle, ultra fight DA kyanta 2 (peak kusoge gameplay). It's just mad fun convincing at least 1 friend to hop on & play some random game for a bit. As much as I've enjoyed having that DAWG in me to grind & compete, it's been nice to just not stress about that stuff.
You're doing it right playing all kinds of fighting games! Also, I'm right there with you not putting the time in like I used to. With IV, I had every version on PC and PS3 and I don't even want to know how many hours I sunk into that game. Nowadays I barely play video games anymore, period. I bought Street Fighter 6 and started with Deejay. It's very fun, but I didn't stick with it :) part of becoming a grown-up, I suppose.
Turning 30 soon but I'll always put aside some time to play a game. Too many good games out there & not enough time though. Pizza Tower, lethal company, baldurs gate 3, Mario wonder, smrpg remake. Those are only some of my favorites I played. I know there's just so much more this year alone in the indie scene I want to play.
