I ultimately have stopped watching their videos, besides Dark Project Mayhem. One of the funniest things is if you're gonna talk about tryhards, don't be a tryhard yourself.
But, this isn't a thread to flame uploaders. They just need to realize the viewers is what keep them moving. If you want a bunch of mindless casuls saying 'eYz LykE uR Cha0S bLaDEZ bR0" then more power to you.
Best not to lump us all that way you know

Granted, my YT presence in souls is very small compared to other games (most of my channel is civ IV or HOMM III/V). I've made my opinions on the "morals" in this game known on the forum and on the channel, but turn-based strategy is not a major crossover genre with the souls experience so I'm guessing a lot of my viewers simply either didn't know the difference or weren't interested enough to comment.
Some of the comments I got in HOMM III were a tad nasty though. My favorite was the guy who was repeatedly downvoted while watching my LP. I was not an elite level HOMM player at the PvP level, and won't be because I don't wish to invest the time. However, despite the rudeness he obviously had experience. I just took the constructive pieces of that feedback, but man did my fans rag on him
.
I've never banned anyone from the channel. I probably wouldn't, unless they were spamming ads somehow or just constantly insulting other people making comments and I noticed the pattern. Simply telling me I'm playing terribly relative to elite PvP gamers at a specific game isn't going to get any anger from me, especially when I already knew that going in ^_^.
Many uploaders are like me also. And of course the ones who are famous enough to make a living of it probably can't keep up with the sheer #comments anyway. I can't imagine what it would be like to follow comments on 100+ videos that hit a million views. Even full time that isn't possible. I imagine they screen similar to how a professional might a resume.
Edit:
I never liked items like blessings. That includes elixers, megalixers, and other non-easily replenishable items that form a "too good to use" club. Dupe risks aside, I struggle to think of a game that has ever necessarily been better off with such an item than it would have been without it.
There's nothing wrong with blessings at all, though I take issue with using 3rd party materials to provide an in-game advantage.
