Remember like Rooster Teeth’s Red vs Blue?

Looking for something like that. Episodic use of a videogame for some light-hearted story driven cinema.

The only good modern example I can think of is Neebs Gaming’s Subnautica series, but that’s kind of an outlier in their channel since everything else they’ve done (that I’ve seen at least) is more of a “let’s play” type of video than the kind of cinematic roleplay they do for Subnautica.

Hard to screen for quality on channels I’m not familiar with, since 99% of YouTube’s gaming content is hot garbage.

Anywho, the combination of school and work is melting my brain… I don’t trust my time management skills to dive back into actual gaming, but the occaisional episode to get that little half-hour-mind-vacation would be a godsend.

Thanks, all!

    Freeman’s Mind (it’s a long-running series up to 6 months ago) by Accursed Farms (or Civil Protection by the same creator)?

    Though this may be an obvious suggestion, the channel is not obscure (Ross’s Game Dungeon for reviews, also a recent video/series on publisher destroying their games).

    Unless you specifically want content made using newer games? Prettier visuals? Would the non-YTP stuff that uses TF2 (or Source in general I guess) count, or maybe you want something in a specific setting/game-you-play?
