Remember like Rooster Teeth’s Red vs Blue?

Looking for something like that. Episodic use of a videogame for some light-hearted story driven cinema.

The only good modern example I can think of is Neebs Gaming’s Subnautica series, but that’s kind of an outlier in their channel since everything else they’ve done (that I’ve seen at least) is more of a “let’s play” type of video than the kind of cinematic roleplay they do for Subnautica.

Hard to screen for quality on channels I’m not familiar with, since 99% of YouTube’s gaming content is hot garbage.

Anywho, the combination of school and work is melting my brain… I don’t trust my time management skills to dive back into actual gaming, but the occaisional episode to get that little half-hour-mind-vacation would be a godsend.

Thanks, all!

      Right you are. They started in 2003 a full two years before YouTube and a solid four years after the 90s.
