YouTubers you hate that everyone else likes

I used to like watching channels that react to music until I realised two things:
My favorite part is the subgenre of this. It's unspoken but basically it's "niggers react to white people's music" because I NEED niggers to validate my music tastes. 99% of the time these people will have absolutely nothing insightful to say. They'll just sit and nod their heads then say they liked it at the end. And this shit will get tons of views somehow.
 
Those identical "horror" channels.
I can log onto Youtube right now and see like fifty identical chat-gpt written videos titled "The DARKEST Minecraft ARG/mario 64 mod/creepiest websites" or something of the sort and find the most low effort shit essentially stealing smaller content to make more views and money off of while offering nothing more than surface level commentary or recapping of obvious stuff, meanwhile Undertale and Yume Nikki music plays in the background.

As a black dude that grew up liking "white people music" this annoys me to no end. Most of the Rap and Hip Hop side of Youtube reactions don't interest me because it all sounds the same to me. Maybe this is how people feel about most music they grow up with but i was into more than just rap and most of the stuff I'm into now doesn't exceed the 2000s since it just sounds like noise with someone mumbling in my ear for a few minutes.

Not my thing
 
I don't know who the Archcast is, but I was recommended one of his streams and within 5 seconds of listening to his voice, I wanted to assault him.
Sorry (not actually sorry) for the necro-reply.


I hate the cohosts tho.
 
Noah Caldwell-Gervais, a video-essayist. They're not even videos. Technically they are, but their main content is some guy reading aloud his written text as if he were on Audible. All the footage is comprised of unrelated media. His takes are generic shit-lib stuff, anyway. When he talked about FEAR 2 he completely glossed over the fact that Alma raped the main character and said she was the victim.

It's not like he's the worst, though. Sometimes there are essays with heavy video editing, making spastic cuts and lean heavily on audio stimulation, using specific sfx to instill pleasure into you for hearing them, i.e. cassette tapes entering a VHS. It's so forced and it's arguably worse than Noah just reading.
It's insane how even someone so utterly shit at video games can achieve a handsome following with little more than a notepad file and a thesaurus to put on the appearance of superiority and intelligence.
Aside from his video on Postal, I found his video on Fallout particularly egregious. In his section on Fallout 2, he mentions the slavery mechanic where you can sell companions into slavery, stating "it's tasteless because of our nation's dark history" or some such. However, he seems to neglect that engaging in this mechanic is presented as an objective evil, giving the player the "slaver" trait and a tattoo marking them to other players. It is not once presented as a good thing, is almost always a bad choice, and is still provided to the player because it is a ROLE-PLAYING GAME. He's a disingenuous cunt and a fart-sniffer.
 
Just a Gundam. I don't hate him personally, but I find his style of rambling really annoying. I dislike how he dodges around getting to the point and his awkward joke delivery.

EDIT: Since people are talking about analog horror and ARGs, I've enjoyed watching some videos about Minecraft ARGs (or "unfiction" if you're anal about it) lately, but there's some things that annoy me about it, like how in every video they have to have a section explaining what a Caesar Cipher or some other letter encoders. A lot of the series are bad, but an analysis video with good delivery can make me happy enough to watch it. There's some "ARG YouTubers" I can't stand though, like there's this one guy who has an annoying foreign accent and horrible delivery. There's this other guy called Magic Mush or something, uses a Star Trek guy as his icon, found him annoying too.

Do you mean It'sagundam or Just a Robot? They both suck for different reasons.
It'sagundam. That's who I meant.
You might be thinking of someone else. MagicMush uses a character from the donkey kong country show as his icon and covers lol cows.
Oh yeah, I did get them mixed up. I enjoy MagicMush's content, don't know how I mixed him up with the other guy.

The Critical Drinker, but I'm seeing and hearing now that it's becoming pretty much fashionable to dislike him, so I'll have to ponder on who I can spit venom at besides him and another prat, James Janisse (Dead Meat). Well, his kiss-arse fanbase. Yep, I know I've sperged about how annoying I find him, already. I was going to mention The Canadian Lad, with his circling shit that ain't there shit, but I may have mentioned him on the Farms previously, and or, someone else beat me to the punch.

@Caddo Cobgang A big percentage of South Koreans probably have Japanese ancestors somewhere in their lineage, anyway, starting from at least the late 1910s. I mean, think about it, though, you don't really tend to see weeb behaviour from the Chinese, or the North Koreans, or the Mongolians, as three examples.

he immediately opens it with a rant about Rowling and how evil she is. Usual unhinged "Ugh, she's just a piece of shit now!"
I recommend Harry Potter Folklore. I always liked his content but I feared that he'd sperg out when he posted this video.

He did not. Based. He just likes Harry Potter and doesn't give a fuck about trannies. And actually goes about JKR's "controversy" evenly but it's pretty clear he doesn't support troons running rampant without consequence.
You reminded me how i really want this culture war stuff to be over with in entertainment. I'm as "anti woke" as the next guy but every time i see a new game or movie i know about 4 or 5 channels i stopped paying attention to who are gonna have videos for the rest of the month because there's gonna be some dumbass discourse that has both of the sides REEEEing at each other.
God fucking same. I'm on the anti woke side but it's tiresome when the culture war stink seeps into everything. Example being Black Myth Wukong. You got people coming out from both sides being extremely retarded.

Man, this really is the next _gate or whatever.
I used to like watching channels that react to music until I realised two things:

1. A good chunk of them lie about having never listened to songs before. The title will be 'FIRST TIME LISTENING TO ____!!' and 30 seconds into the song they will go "Oh I recognise this! I didn't realise it was them!" so it's a way for them to lure people to their content and then save face by getting away with not knowing a very popular song initially. Or you have clickbait people like Alex Hefner that blatantly lie about going 20+ years of your life without listening to a universally known song.

That....is extremely horrifying. Is he blind? Is he nutting?

Also full disclosure, I have not listened to Bohemian Rhapsody in full. So I am retarded too.

I totally get you. Black too but idgaf about "black music". I'm over at electronica and rock and metal.

Anyway thread tax: leaping lemur. His narration is whatever but what gets to me is how he plays super long clips of the people whose content he covers almost like 2-4 minutes at a time. It makes his videos a chore to sit through.


I'm trying to watch this but it's just his nonsense commentary spliced between overly long clips of this schizo thot rambling. Dude, fucking add something.

A lot of people see it like "bro don't you feel like you aren't the only one who sees it!" like yeah i and many do but now it's like i don't care since it's two dogs barking at each other from either side of the fence. There is no gain and not much loss when we are well over a decade into this shit and it feels nothing has changed that much. Get some ground there, lose some there but things are relatively the same.

As corny as this is I been listening to video game music mostly because a lot of the genres you hear aren't that big anymore (jungle and drum n bass were very big in the 2000s but relatively underground(ish) nowadays). I am so out of the loop with "black music" mostly because when someone like a coworker shows me a song it feels things ain't moved much since the mid 2010s and people are still rapping about the same shit or slurring their way through a song like they drunk and people think there is deeper subtext with it.

Why though? I kept up with his channel until about a year ago. He was never a fountain of unique wisdom but I liked seeing the worst of modern Hollywood paraded about as a freak show (it should be). I guess because he hasn't upgraded his format, I stopped watching him often as he seems stuck in 2016 like other right-wing reaction farms (TheQuickening, that kind of stuff).

How to Make Everything. This nigger will have a cool idea, spend a lot of time researching it and building the project but then just stop giving a fuck halfway through and half ass the execution so bad it ruins everything. The most infamous example being the time he decided to personally grow/make/butcher all the ingredients for a chicken sandwich but then the mfer didn’t bother to actually learn how to bake good bread, make condiments or cook a chicken breast properly so his dry ass sandwich looked and apparently tasted like ass.

He does niche content for the NHL franchise mode but CynFtWProductions just because he's the type of player the developers seem to be catering towards and pretty representative of the reddit community. Basically tries to cheese the AI for high draft picks and young former high draft picks every year in increasingly unrealistic ways and builds the exact same type of team every time. No storytelling ability or hype.
 
my cousin watches Ryth and oh my god he's worse than any reaction youtubers i have watched in 2019(i dont watch reaction youtubers now cause most of them are baits). watching his videos has that hazbin hotel amounts of swearing, barely adding anything aside from "omg is this person fucking stupid???" multiple times, and feels like hes gonna react every one second of video he is reacting. I don't know why my cousin watched him multiple times, maybe because his avatar is an bright purple cartoon cat and his thumbnails and videos has saturated colors. I found out ryth is similar to djturbo in terms of their content but i find djturbo trying hard to be satirical (in some of his videos) than ryth.
 
Someone told me to give izzyzz a try but neglected to mention she’s a Sarah Z skinwalker and unabashed brony and I can just smell the furry taint on her. There are enough “haha funny internet thing happen” on youtube, we don’t need to be letting everyone with a ring light and microphone in. That’s how you get breadtubers.
