>Can you beat [GAME] by [NOT USING CORE MECHANIC]
>"No, but I'm gonna continue the video anyway"

summons arent a core mechanic

>Can you beat [GAME] without jumping?
>In order for me to explain what a jump is, let me deeply explain the mechanics of the game for five minutes while I basically explain you press A to jump while you're on the ground
>next I slightly press up against a ledge and go off it to execute a walljump, this isn't a jump because I say so
>anyways I'm going to do this for half the video until I get to a certain point that requires me to jump, so now this is a "how many times do I need to jump" video and didn't label it as one until this moment, otherwise I wasted all this time for nothing

these videos are just let's plays at this point

>>715938821
>things that never happened

Why is it that the people who make video game challenge videos have the most annoying and nasally voices ever?

>CAN I BEAT [game] WITH ONLY [somewhat suboptimal loadout]??

>>715939394
some dude here made a video like that and posted it, it was kinda funny
I didn't save it though

>>715939487
>I have hobby
>I can make money off hobby
Criticism is evil and effort is hard. If I wanted things to be hard, I wouldn't be a gaming youtuber

>>715937823 (OP)
So it's just a video about how few uses of [CORE MECHANIC] you need to beat [GAME]. Doesn't seem like an issue to me.

>>715937823 (OP)
>"Can you beat [GAME] using [SHITTIEST WEAPON IN THE GAME]?"
>Never even uses the weapon, just uses magic or skips every fight

You fuckers all kid but the challenge runners who REALLY torture themselves, like Zero and his permadeath Resident Evil runs, are peak

>>715937823 (OP)
>Can YOU beat the game while ignoring all the mechanics and brute forcing the entire game like a fucking retard, effectively making a fun and well put together experience entirely null and pointless because I wanted to make a video and get money?
God, I bet they like speedrunning too, these motherfuckers.

>Can you beat BORDERLANDS 2 with [VERY SPECIFIC LOADOUT/ARBITRARY RULES]
>

>Can you beat [GAME] without [MECHANIC]
>the rule becomes that [MECHANIC] is a whole button on the controller so instead of one mechanic it's everything that's controlled by that one button
kino...

>>715939967
I've never played the REmakes so I can't appreciate how difficult berserker/valkryie mod makes them but that time in RE7 where he spent like 20 minutes of video on a literal 10 second scripted sequence because he didn't want to break the no sprint rule was cinema.

>>715940086
I remember thinking "wow he's already at the final boss, that was easy" and I looked at the timestamp and I saw that there were still 20 minutes left in the video

>>715938302
These videos are way more egregious for stuff like Souls games because they actually are designed to beat them using pretty much anything you can find.

>>715938302
>>715940404
That "The Backlogs" faggot is the absolute worst challenge runner of all time.
>DUHH, CAN I BEAT DARK SOULS WITH ONLY A DAGGER?? DEERRPP
He's also extremely unfunny and cringeworthy. The fucking worst

>>715939586
go find it then bitch
just check your history tab and post it

I like those "can you beat the video game with game protection turn on and fucking you over at every turn" videos.

>>715938302
The only time those were any good was when Tears of grace did ladle runs back in DS2.

>>715940635
I watched it incognito to have it not ruin my recommended videos.
If you're that interested I found it in a Terraria thread the other day, just go look for it

>>715940807
What?
Is there one for Spyro 3? I remember having a pirated disc for that and the game protection cockblocking me from finishing that as a kid.

RIP Paul

I like barons castle

>>715942325
those don't bother me as much. im not gonna watch someone play the whole game either cheesing the shit out of every encounter or very slowly move up to where a normal run would take 15 minutes and they have to extend it by 2 hours. unless the game itself is already short as hell.
really its jsut the highlights of a permadeath run. considering so many videos have some "erm technically those doesnt count" moments, i just assume from the get-go its fake

Glad that ugly faggot Mittensquad died. Last tweets were probably about how much he hates Orange man bad.

>last video is "can you beat fallout while being addicted to everything"
>dies from cirrhosis
kino

>>715942635
RIP. Funny guy, still watch his videos from time to time

I think for me the cancer peaked when a minecraft youtuber who had been doing it for basically a decade pretended not to know how to craft a pickaxe.
I don't know if I care about all the legacy shit that's been uploaded to youtube is lost, I just want to see the whole thing burn down.

can you jack off and cum ONLY using your hands?

i click off video

>>715943160
no, you don't get it. the joke is that the "rule" is something incredibly easy that isn't even a challenge.
been seeing a fucking ton of these in my random video recommendations recently.

>>715942731
the face reveal was a mistake, he relapsed after reading all the comments. what the fuck was he thinking? it wasn't even just "ok guys that's what I look like, now moving on", he tried to make content with it.

>>715943472
i dont know about that. pretty sure he knew he was fucked up. i think he was always an alcoholic and it just got worse as time went on. making those long videos and having to play the same game with stupid rules would probably lead me to drink too

I just treat those slop videos like video essays and I just let them play out in the background when I'm bored

Only good video I've seen of this recently is someone doing the RoC Night Elf campaign without night elves and spending 10 hours using the named Dog during the freeing Illidan mission to slowly kill everything.

>>715943127
the video is kinda edgy sure but he sounds pretty normal

he sounds like a faggot in his other video

Yeah these are the worse and I assume are made for kids or something? Like yes, obviously you can beat the game with a regular ass axe. Why wouldn't you be able to...

I think you might be a retard.

>Can I beat game without doing X?
>"I wasn't able to do this part, but here's footage of a speed runner doing it, so I know it's possible"

>>715945727
I think you are wrong, there are way worse sounding dudes out there with like 100000x times the subs, he just sounds like a normal shitposter

>>715940475
He also uses she/her pronouns whenever talking about Gwyndolin in DS1. Mega cringe.

How do you do this shit? Do people just buy bots when starting out?
It feels like no one is gonna click on some 'literally who' video unless it has 10000 views already

>>715946574
>Do people buy bots when starting out
Yes and no, the meta is knowing people at youtube.
Basically nobody likes ANY of the shit on youtube but it's forced on everyone because they know people that work there.
Google is spending literal millions of dollars to shit out plausible fake comments on videos nobody wants to watch.
If you want a "successful" youtube channel get with a talent agency to pay google to fake your metrics for you and to sell people scam shit like vpns.

>>715946574
Try to get a shoutout from a big tuber

>>715946750
Also sorry afterwards for shoving the black pill up your ass for no reason.
Although if it makes you feel any better, those 20 people probably actually wanted to watch your video which is a LOT more than can be said about whatever is "popular" on the site.

>>715940475
The one that did me in was his "Can you beat DS1 with only Miracles" in which he mainly uses Lightning Spear the whole way through. There's maybe like 2 bosses in the entire game that resist lightning in any meaningful way, and even there's Wrath of the Gods, which is completely busted in DS1.

>>715939967
For me it's that bit in his "RE5 AI Sheva takes no damage' run where Sheva picked up an incendiary grenade without him noticing and immediately used it to set Josh on fire.

>>715946574
If it makes you feel any better this is the only comment I have on my long ass video of some obscure game no one cares about
Just keep making content and don't give up, also shill yourself if you're just starting out, post the video here and let other people watch it.

>Can I beat Kingdom Hearts at Level 1?
>Just follows an online level 1 guide on how to do everything but pretends this is all new

ymfah's challenge runs are great, but i disagree with the trend in his latest ones where he goes to another save/summons another character who doesn't have to follow the challenge's rules

>>715947827
>Level 1 in kingdom hearts has got to be like, really hard, right?
>Built in second chance/once more so you will ALWAYS survive hits without immediately dying
>Bonus levels of "not really level ups" that give you a shitload of stats and crucial abilities
Fucking stupid.
Like when people were like
>DOOOD, DOOOD PROUD MODE IS SOOOOO CRAZY DOOOOD!
When basically the changes amount to Soldiers one tapping you at the start of the game
Defenders one tapping you at hollow bastion
And Ansem's Dong Ship being able to one shot you, if again, you aren't doing Level 1 shit that gives you a free nuh-uh to fatal damage, or you grinded for swcond chance/once more.
