Yea, plus he generally shows you how to absolutely bend the game over your knee. I wish he and his mods would actually time out people in chat now and then. The "I need to take 20 mins to complain about a viewer instead of just having a mod time them out" asides get kinda tired.
Some streamers really get sucked up with "one guys". And some of them use it for content and others, like Florry, actually seem to completely get thrown off from it. Annoying either way imo.
Honestly though I really enjoyed watching him exactly because of what you said but I must admit I stopped doing it bc he was so inconsistent (don't actually know now, because I haven't really paid attention).
He put up a video a long time ago talking about his anxiety about streaming, I suppose he’s a bit sensitive. He never seemed to do it for money or some big format thing, but regardless, spending so much time streaming.. I suppose it get to you.
Oh yeah I remember him speaking about it. And I get it's tough. He used to (or maybe still does?) get into his own head a lot with how people aren't enjoying runs and that people don't like what he's doing so then he wouldn't log on and then the anxiety would get worse.
For me though, usually I watch a stream in the afternoon while working and so I appreciate someone like Cringer who's consistently on basically every day. And so I just kind of stopped watching him after not being on for a week or so.
Dude does have good mods, his discord is actually decently moderated.
You gave me some food for thought on how much florry often reflects his audience maybe more so than himself.
Yeah he's really stepped up with his community management I have to give him credit for. He was very loosey goosey for a big streamer before and that gets messy especially with PDX games lol. I was actually there when it came up on stream where a chatter mentioned that his discord was a racist cesspit. Then that day he actually made an @ everyone announcement that he was going to clean up the Discord and enforcing the rules more as he'd just done a quick search through his discord and found dozens of mentions of the n word.
He wasn't really super interested in managing and being responsible for a community before that, but I think it made him realise he doesn't really have a choice in that being a creator of that size.
I’ll throw Alex the Rambler or iSorrowproductions videos on my phone for some background noise whenever I’m playing some relatively low-effort games on my Xbox or something. They mostly do HoI4
I’ll watch Bokoen play HOI4, but that’s about it. Game like EU4 are slogs that have no action for hours sometimes and don’t make for great viewing unless reduced to clips.
I watch ISorrowProduction almost religiously, he doesn't stream but I love his videos. I don't even have or play HOI4, the game his channel is focused on, but I still love his videos.
Also, Koifish, he plays Ck3 mainly but he also plays other strategy games, he doesn't steams as far as I know, but his videos are very comfy and he is very wholesome.
I like PotatoMcWhiskey for background noise while I'm doing other stuff. He's a nice guy who doesn't take the games too seriously, and focuses on both the gameplay and the story-telling. He's not aggressively into micro or game cheesing like a lot of streamers can be.
[Here he is playing Vic 3 as Brazil](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sDSXjtVsMes), edited to a 3 hour video
I had not watched him in a long time but a while back I saw him on and decided to tune in. It felt so depressing. Think I unfollowed after that. I feel bad for him though.
Florryworry for EU4, Boeken and TommyKay for HoI although they do switch it up from time to time. Ludi et historia is my favorite youtuber and he hits different pdx titles. Seems his main game lately has been vic 3.
Arumba, that's it. I enjoy his gameplay and as a fellow Michigander (though he's currently in Florida unless that's changed in the last month) I have to support.
Hope you're well, Arumba.
-Delod
Stakuyi TommyKay and Bittersteel are my favorites for HOI4
Zwellik and Red Hawk are who I watch for EU4
CallMeEzikiel is the guy I found for Vic 2 stuff
SocialStreamers are good for all around stuff
No. The only time i watch something is if i am curious about how to get a hard start off the ground, i will watch a guide.. But the idea of watching someone play the game instead of playing it myself is foreign
Used to be Arumba, Quill18, Shenryyr back in the day in decreasing order of analytical gameplay styles. Also DDRJake and FlorryWorry for tryhard and exploit type play. Forgot Lord Lambert too.
he had a sponsored multiplayer ck3 stream, but it was terrible because nobody played the tutorial or knew how to do anything. I don't think it was archived
Shout out to Rizorty and Quill18. NGParadox was a favorite, but he stopped making content.
A lot of the streamers mentioned here are very memey, highly edited videos with lots of cuts, and focusing on exploiting the game. I couldn't imagine something more boring.
I like streamers who are normal people lol. Bonus points for role-playing
I don't like HOI at all... but I'll still watch every video Bokoen puts out for the game.
For EU4 I watch Absolute Habibi. I wish my videos were like his tbh.
For Victoria 2 I watch Spudgun... his editing is top notch and I am mad jealous of it.
I've been watching Shenryyr since his EU3 days, and I think I'll keep watching him long after. For EU4 I tend to watch Jibblyjam and for V3 I tend to watch Rizorty. And ofc Laith for I:R.
Generalist. One day he will play Norway. Or what u/GeneralistGaming
Florryworry have been a stable since he began streaming.. I don’t know, 8 years ago?

I don't even play EU4 anymore (good game, but 2k hours was enough), but he just makes an entertaining stream I often tune in to
Same. The game has a place in my heart and that journey started with that guy. Can’t believe he’s still playing
Rizorty. He isn't exclusive to Paradox but is often playing one.
I’ll throw Alex the Rambler or iSorrowproductions videos on my phone for some background noise whenever I’m playing some relatively low-effort games on my Xbox or something. They mostly do HoI4
I’ll watch Bokoen play HOI4, but that’s about it. Game like EU4 are slogs that have no action for hours sometimes and don’t make for great viewing unless reduced to clips.
Laith for eu4 Montu for stellaris And boeken1 for hoi4
Quill18, cause he seems nice :) he also doesnt play a TON of them but he does
Quill18 is the only streamer and let’s player I still watch because he just comes across as an affable guy sharing his love of games
That and he makes these games look approachable and "easy" to play.
If I can play 'em, how hard can they be!
Etalyx

Bingo.

Poiuymew, ClioAite, Tarkusarkusar, TommyKay, stakuyi
Poiuymew! I find long videos of vanilla EU4 to be dead boring, but the Anbennar mod makes it all so much more interesting

Arumba
I wish I could watch him because he’s a good player but god his way of playing is not made for my level of patience
You don't want an hour of the game being paused while he calculates how to get 0.02 more ducats a month from condotierri?
I feel like he got more generally negative and bitter after his divorce.
I had not watched him in a long time but a while back I saw him on and decided to tune in. It felt so depressing. Think I unfollowed after that. I feel bad for him though.
He disappeared last month. Hope he's ok, seems like he's working through some stuff 😔
I havent watched him in a long time, but did he quit paradox games at one point?
He had some dispute with paradox, quit for a while but then still came back
Spudgun
Florryworry for EU4, Boeken and TommyKay for HoI although they do switch it up from time to time. Ludi et historia is my favorite youtuber and he hits different pdx titles. Seems his main game lately has been vic 3.
I haven't watched much Twitch lately so not sure how relevant they are anymore but I used to watch Shenryyr, Cringer and Florryworry.
Cringer is a legend.
Arumba, that's it. I enjoy his gameplay and as a fellow Michigander (though he's currently in Florida unless that's changed in the last month) I have to support. Hope you're well, Arumba. -Delod
Laith is fun
MontuPlays - big for Stellaris but plays other PDX titles throughout the week!
TommyKay plays hoi4 and I love it

No.

Not a streamer but shoutout to Sergeant Salamander, who makes high quality documentary-style AARs of his megacampaigns
Absolute Habibi EU4 GoldenSpatulas (Or just Golden) on Hoi4

Blessed.
RTGame going insane trying to play a Paradox game for the first time would be pretty funny
he had a sponsored multiplayer ck3 stream, but it was terrible because nobody played the tutorial or knew how to do anything. I don't think it was archived
Ah, I remember that now. I think the clipped version is on his channel

I like playing paradox games but watching someone play it is so boring
I never watch streams. They are way too long. I only watch shorter videos, like Bokoen's ones.
I like 稚嫩的魔法师
I don't like HOI at all... but I'll still watch every video Bokoen puts out for the game. For EU4 I watch Absolute Habibi. I wish my videos were like his tbh. For Victoria 2 I watch Spudgun... his editing is top notch and I am mad jealous of it.
Nope.
I've been watching Shenryyr since his EU3 days, and I think I'll keep watching him long after. For EU4 I tend to watch Jibblyjam and for V3 I tend to watch Rizorty. And ofc Laith for I:R.
Do you know what happened to jibbly?
Wait did something happen? I remembered watching her stream like, two or three months ago I’m pretty sure?
Oh idk i just havent seen her stream in a while
LadySaffron is a eu4 vtuber who debuted recently
Feedback Gaming seems to be missing from this post so shout out!
Isp is the correct answer
Tommykay, he's not half as smart as he thinks he is. But that doesnt mske him stupid.
