Can you guys recommend some good channels? I am watching Gingy occasionally, but I find his style a bit too dry.
Edit: thanks to everyone for sharing your suggestions! I will check them out!
VaatiVidya
- VaatiVidya He into FromSoftware games.
- Clemps He’s mainly a JRPG reviewer, but he makes some lore videos too. Clemps’ videos about Yoko Taro games (Nier & Drakengard) are great.
- Alt Schwift X He into high fantasy series. Schwift is known for his Game of Thrones videos.
Luetin09 for Warhammer Lore.
That dude’s content is solid.
Jorphdan (the ph is silent) has dozens of videos exploring the lore of the Dungeons and Dragons multiverse. Those worlds have been the setting for enough videogames that I think it applies.
You might also check out Eckhart’s Ladder. He focuses primarily on Star Wars but with some digressions into Halo and other science fiction universes.
One of my personal favorite gaming essayists is Grim Beard, though his particular style may or may not gel with you. His videos are generally about a single game and often encompass a game’s conception, development, gameplay, reception, and legacy. It’s not exactly a lore channel, per se, but I feel like it might be in the ballpark of what you’re looking for.

Mr. Happy if you like anything Final Fantasy! Excellent stuff and he goes deep into all lore.
Josh Strife Hayes also does a good job just in general.
Check out Like Stories of Old and Joseph Anderson, although the latter haven’t posted anything in a long time…
