Wait wait wait. This probably had been discussed earlier, but this is also made by Seth?

Not really,it is a meme that they are the same person. Which is understandable since they are the only two decent reviewers out there.

Of course Matt, I thought you of all people would know that.

Yes, Mandalore is Seth on his meds. Who knows which other personalities of his lurk in the web's abyss, but these are the whales we know.

The depressed one.

Yeah, if we're to be honest the meme material of Underrail is only off the roof with Expedition update....

 

[Wunderbar]

Styg should've sent a key to Mandalore too.

SsethTzeentach is the hero internet deserves but not the one it needs right now.

That nigga Sseth is growing in power with each passing day. Now his videos pass 1 000 000 views regularly, sometimes twice that.

If the Underrail video gets to 1 mln, that will be a huge boost to Styg and Friends.

Also, can't wait to read all of the post on steam about getting raped by mutants and dogs in Depot A.

Styg

I don't know to what extent Sseth's video can be credited for this, but Underrail made it to Steam's global top sellers list.

 

[Taka-Haradin puolipeikko]

3rd on top seller list when viewing local results from Finland.

Whats more is that has an actual hardcore audience. If he endorses something, no matter if its old, niche or super obscure shit, a large number of his audience will actually want to get their hands on that shit. When he recommended that weird space game nobody has heard of last time, the servers of their homepage crashed almost immediately.

Now he needs to review AoD to make Vince rich

e-celeb "influencers" have a lot more sway in getting people to buy your game than shill reviewers, that's for sure

 

[DeepOcean]

Not all of them sell real world copies specially of obscure indie games, Sseth is different, most successful "influencers" are attention whores that use the games as just a prop for themselves, people don't watch them for the games but for their "personality", most of them stick to AAA games (games that don't even need their reviews to sell anyway) because the objective isn't to talk about the game but the sweet youtube ad money and sell themselves as a "personality". Youtube is full of attention whores like that.

There are other "influencers" which content consist of making reviews on a process that wouldn't be strange on a sausage processing factory, they just place random video footage on the background and go rambling about the game on the most lazy way possible, their motto is the least amount of effort for the most bang possible. They go commenting about the features of the game on the most disconnected way possible, filled with barely developed subjective evaluations he quickly wrote down on some dirty napkin somewhere. You can see they played through the game but didn't even bother to actually think a little deeper about the game they just played.

Sseth doesn't do attention whoring nor produces content like an youtube sausage factory, he actually must waste a ton of time editing to make the gags to work as the gags aren't focused on him but on elements of the game so he shows the qualities of the game on a non autistic way that isn't a ultra lazy copy paste format that most youtubers do that manages to be funny with edgylord humor.

I think that depends a lot more on the game than on e-celeb "star power", so to speak. There was an article talking about how PewDiePie, Markiplier, etc covering a game didn't really translate to increased sales seeing as their audience was there to watch streamer shenanigans and not for the game itself. They were also playing walking simulators and casual games you really see everything you want during said playthrough so the excitement is gone. RPGs are most likely received differently by audiences as something they themselves need to give a try. Also, one high impact video vs 50+ parts Let's Play series have different retention rates, I imagine.

 

[DeepOcean]

Lets just make a little math, a 1 million views video, only 5% of people actually bother buying the game, that is 50000 sales to boost that number, Styg do an strategic sale on the right time, alot of money he justly deserves. The Merchant Guild is proud.

On the other hand there were several games that benefited from TotalBiscuit "bump", when he made a video.
Renowned Explorers for example.

 

[Lambach]

Can confirm.

 

[Bohrain]

I've heard rumors that he is planning to do a Sengoku Rance review. If MangaGamer can get the payment transfer shit sorted out they are in for some major cashflow.
