Gamer Youtubers

Well, imagine if some jackass who was not involved with the creation of the movie at all decided to just comment on what he thought watching the movie would be like."

As much as they want to distance themselves from Let's players (I hate the name too), the Game Grumps are borderline LPers.

Also, most people who play a game blind (like most of what the Game Grumps do) bother me. That and people who ignore instructions because they could not careless (Darksyde Phil) or are talking to each other too much (the Game Grumps and the Runaway guys at times) are the things that turn me off from videos most of the time.

Indeed. Again, it's a case by case basis. As much as DSP is a complete moron, it's far FAAAR to unfunny to pass up on some of his antics; the 'This is how you don't play' series is comedy gold. Other cases like multiplayer sessions (Maxmillion Dood, Mike Ross and Gootecks Excellent Adventures) gain a lot more value to their videos with commentary because of their knowledge and it adds to experience but since it's not a game with a story nothing is lost form the game itself. If not that, then it's funny as heck.
I never actually watch a playthrough of a game, I usually have it on the background of if I want to fall asleep in bed without watching a TV show.
As I'm too lazy to post I am subscribed to a few people who, I doubt, anyone knows what they look/sound like since they upload directly (MasterLL or OmagEvolution) for example. Too many to name but it's a very diverse scene.

Also, what's the point of Liam and Ross in TBFP and GG?
