Obscure YouTubers you feel deserve more views

[SsnakeBite, the No1 Frenchman]

There are plenty of talented YouTubers out there who have rightfully amassed a large fandom, but there are also quite a few that make me go "how does this guy/girl not get more views than this?" and I'm sure you know some too, so give them some publicity here.



MsVocaVoca: www.youtube.com/user/MsVocaVoca?feature=watch

She does speed paintings and recently started a Let's Play of an RPGMaker game called Alice Mare. Her only video with more than 1000 views is a Game Grumps Animated cartoon and she really deserves better.



The Dinner Dates: www.youtube.com/user/HabermannSA/videos

A group of gamers (although it's mostly one guy who calls himself Habermann) who showcase and LP various games, mostly hilariously bad ones. What I particularly like about their stuff is that they have on multiple occasions interviewed people who in some way worked on these games (mostly as beta testers) including Guru Larry of all people so they can give some inside knowledge of why and how these games became so bad. They seem to average around 1500 views and once again, they deserve better.



Tennings: www.youtube.com/user/Tennings

Similar to the Dinner Dates above but more light-hearted. He reviews games that are possibly even worse than the average quality the Dinner Dates have to deal with. It's really shovelware stuff. His reviews are usually fairly short too so if you just want to watch some quick stuff to kill time and don't want to spend 20+ minutes on one review, he's definitely worth checking out.

[The Legend of Groose]

batman9502. Honestly the best LPer around in my IMO. www.youtube.com/channel/UCnwATPbTSTFU-GKLLcFHcUA

[Deleted]

Max Koch - www.youtube.com/user/BowlerHat - voice actor and impressionist.

His Tony Soprano is probably the best you'll ever hear and even see. Silvio, Christopher, Bobby and even AJ are also great.

He does a bloody wonderful Heath Ledger Joker too.

Derek Paravicini- www.youtube.com/channel/UCMOFHuVzh3n_JBgICCgtnCg

Blind, autistic man who is a savant level genius at the piano. Fun fact: he's related to Camilla Parker-Bowles by marriage.

Most LPers I sub to.

Many of them have some sort of popularity due to connections but are still largely not known.

Not really interested in the games he plays, but his 'thoughts' (reviews) are pretty funny (he has some kind of bone disease, before anyone asks).

Dashie XP: www.youtube.com/channel/UCOSMYm1yZ7LIHwERXphGAYw

Hilarious. Make sure your volume's low, though.

Pellek: www.youtube.com/user/pellekofficial/videos

Does metal covers of vg music, anime openings, and regular songs.

Rabbit: www.youtube.com/channel/UCKf4Mh9NFyA-ANrMmocobYg

A female let's player. Plays JRPGs.

GamerKat09: www.youtube.com/channel/UCOKI15UnOhdGKaeQn-TPz3w

Another female let's player.

Love PelleK, love the fact he still does his YouTube videos.

But I don't think he's really hurting for views as he's got plenty of time and business with his solo band and Damnation Angels... and I believe he works with a few other bands as well.

Again, it's awesome he still does YouTube videos though... shows he really loves and has fun with his talent instead of it just being a job to him like so many musicians end up turning into.

[crowwreak was WRONG]

Some guy called Crowwreak is doing this awesome LP of Spyro www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHdyUa0MzaO8PQghT-hX_tn7KQSmw3Znw
you should totally check it out....

But in seriousness, there's a wrestler and magician called Jarek 1:20 who actually uses hypnotism and card tricks as a gimmick
www.youtube.com/watch?v=naT0-uCw6eA
I think it's pretty unique

[Orange]

For me, it's Steve Terreberry and The Motley Misfit. Steve's videos are more humorous in nature, but the dude can flat out play guitar which makes for a hilarious mix.





And for as good as The Motley Misfit is, he doesn't get near enough views, in my opinion. He's a fantastic player and a cool dude if you watch his vlogs.

[Harry The Arrow was Wrong!]

I'm not sure if he's obscure but he definitely deserves more views - Marc Pearson www.youtube.com/user/themarcrpears0n?feature=watch

The guy does wrestling reviews and is pretty damn entertaing. He reviews Raw and Nxt and has a great series called 10 years ago where every month he reviews a ppv that happened 10 years ago (This month he reviewed The rumble 04). He's also got other shows such as 97th heaven and hes currently doing 98 was it great?

[Milkman Norm]

www.welcometothebasementshow.com

It's a show featuring Matt Sloan (Chad Vader) and Craig Johnson (also in Chad Vader) watching movies in Matt's basement. The premise is that all the movies are films that Matt, a film buff, has never seen before. There's a bit of riffing, a bit of conversation after the show about the film as well as comments (Costumer Comments) and talk about movies that fans have suggested that Matt has already seen (Seen It!) All old episodes are the website as well as on the Blame Society channel on youtube. I recommend starting with the "Tough Guys Don't Dance" episode.

YourMovieSucks (YMSProductions) might actually be my favorite YouTuber. Watch the Cyberbully and Hunger Games reviews. He's got a deadpan, witty sense of humor.

Big time seconds to both of these.

Pearson is also good for people interested in the thriving British indy wrestling scene.

www.youtube.com/user/GirlsHeartGeeks2/feed

GirlsHeartGeeks 2 guys who I found totally on accident about a year ago they mostly commentate over Power Ranger epispodes going season through season..not necesarrially in order but hilarious stuff when Toby marks out for things like Giraffe zord and his urge to want to see a purple power ranger. They have begun adding Lets Plays mostly of just casual games like surgeon simulator etc.

[DZ: WF Legacy]

Me, for starters.

And Lithium017's Nintendo collecting videos. He's very informative with his tips. I found his colorful N64 collection to be really cool to see.

[MrBRulzOK]

Heisanevilgenius. He's not as obscure as some, but the guy is definitely underrated in my book. He basically does videos for bizarre video games, including some that you would probably expect and others that you've probably never even heard of. He's also on Blistered Thumbs, but he's not as well known as the bigger names on there.

His channel is aptly named "Weird Video Games"

I definitely second that. There's some very good stuff in there.

I'm a sucker for covers of video game music (VGM). I tried to keep the subscription limit of ~4000 and under with these, so with that in mind:

• TPR does melancholic reinterpretations of Final Fantasy music, mostly on the piano. They've put out whole albums of them; they've done FF VII, VIII, IX and has now started working on X.
• Lucas King does a similar style to TPR but casts his net wider, and he also does piano reinterpretations of WWE Themes, which I adore.
• insaneintherainmusic does more jazz-based reinterpretations of various VGM. Here's one from Donkey Kong Country, Aquatic Ambiance.
• CrazyGroupTrio does VGM covers from 8bit to piano to ensemble pieces.
• Mr.BonusStage does all his VGM covers on piano. His cover of Tristam from Diablo (with guest guitar) is stunningly beautiful.
• Paulo Wirth does piano covers of Final Fantasy XIII-2's soundtrack, which are incredibly rare on Youtube. Since I adore XIII-2's OST, his covers do the songs justice. Here are the themes of Yuel and Noel, my fave tracks off the OST.
• Delldongo Fabrice & UprisingGrand also does FF XIII/XIII-2 piano covers but casts their net wider to other RPGs as well.
• AkaneProductions recently started an all-guitar cover of (mostly) the whole Final Fantasy VII OST. Watching the accompanying video with his songs as the backdrop really brings in the nostalgia for me.
• GuitarDreamer does his VGM covers on electric guitar across multiple genres.
• Epic Keyboard Guy does VGM covers. Guess on what platform? They don't have a lot of videos up but the ones they have up are high quality work.
• SygmXOfficial turns VGM songs into music box and 8bit versions. There are never enough music box covers of songs IMO.

Finally, SunlightMaggot has nothing to do with VGM. Rather, they've taken on a huge project: editing and turning Dark Souls (and its lore) into a cohesive, narrative movie. Trust me, it's far better than I make it sound and they seriously deserve more views/subs for all the hard work they put in. I haven't even played the game and this has me enthralled.

Me-aka MrWalford75.I only have 3 or 4 videos, but dammit. I can't break that glass ceiling!
