Thanks for making this video. The landscape on KZread has definitely changed, and it's tough keeping up, but I'm trying to make it work! After the peak of the pandemic, I think viewer habits changed a lot, and it's harder for let's play videos to do as well.

This was back in the Scottland Minecraft days (So good, please Zack if you see this make a reboot of a Minecraft playthrough). I've watched the Dark Moon Series around...13 times full. ACTUALLY just Yesterday i re watched it and got this video recommend today. (Probably the best series he's ever done) It's also the reason for why i think dark moon is the best of the 3 games. He also DID THE SAME THING twice, he started Skyward sword and left it midway without finishing it, my life is uncomplete and it needs closure. THE ESSENTIAL ZackscottGames series: Luigi's mansion Dark Moon *Goat* Mario + Luigi Dream Team *Goat* (Sadly unfinished) PVZ Garden Warfare 2 Series (Longer) Paper Mario-Color Splash The Lego movie Video Game The hyrule Warriors Wii u Series *Goat* The breath of the wild series ANGRY BIRDS EPIC SERIES *GOAT ON GOAT* Captain Toad treasure tracker series A link Between Worlds Series ScribbleNauts Unlimited The 2 versus mode Episodes Scottland Minecraft series in my head, theres no better lets player than Zackscottgames and i always thought it was a shame that at the time he only had like 4 Million subs until he started doin games like fortnite and what not, and right now he's at 5 million, which i still think is a shame because i love his humor and commentary on top of having probably the greatest relationship with companies ive seen, especially with PopCat And Nintendo.

What sets Chuggaconroy apart is the level of attention planning and RESEARCH that he puts into every Let's Play he does. Like the vast majority of Let's Plays are just a funny guy playing through a game and making jokes throughout, with Chugga you learn everything there is to learn about a game. To be honest I don't even think he is that funny and for that reason I never got SUPER into his content but I have always admired his dedication to the craft and his unique approach to the LP format. His series are almost like long-form video essays, and that gives him an appeal that can't be replicated by newer funny guys streaming games on Twitch, which I think is most of what has replaced the traditional Let's Play

They ain’t performing like they did but they gave me some amazing memories. Chuggas views kinda flux but in the end he’s still doing good and watching him now feels no different than how it felt watching him 12 years ago and that’s a good thing. I suggest watching him, he needs the love.

HUGE shoutout to Chuggaaconroy. He's managed to stand the tests of time and is still making high quality LPs. Some of his best work is done with the Pokemon games, where he covers EVERY Pokemon with their own bios, going over their stats, moves, and strategies you can pull off with them. The exact same thing goes for his Splatoon LPs, and to a SLIGHTLY lesser extent, his Xenoblade 2 LP. His Xenoblade 2 LP is actually my favorite one, and it got me to not only give the game a chance after all this time, but go online and buy both it and the DLC, and now I'd say it's one of my top favorite games ever. Emile puts in SO much effort and passion into his videos, and it really shows. Truly deserving of his success.

Let's Plays are literally the reason I joined KZread, because I wanted to comment on a Let's Play video. The days of watching a Let's Play and Classic NG / KZread Animation back in 2012 and 13 were so great that honestly, I wish I could go back, even If I have to sacrifice stuff in my life now like my education. Chuggaaconroy was and still is amazing. It's a shame that many KZreadrs I loved quit the Let's Play formula. Firewizard23 was a small KZreadr who was actually the person who made me want to write that comment. I remember getting older and seeing the FNAF wave hit in around 2015, which was insane. My channel literally turns 10-years-old in a few days, and it's all thanks to this formula.

It was like a much earlier, much funnier, and more adult-oriented version of the Dream SMP. I still go back and rewatch those videos randomly and it always puts me in a good mood. There were so many funny people in those Minecraft videos and it's crazy how many of them ended up getting pretty big on youtube themselves

I distinctly remember this one mc video of his that freaked me tf out as a kid, like idk if I'm remembering this completely right (it's been like 8-9 years after all lmao) but the main part of it was the guy in the black & yellow shirt had this super disorted voice like it was all deep n shit and this food place they were in like caught on fire or sum I think the end was Zach like burning in lava(???) Zach acted like the bee looking guy was like evil n shit i tried to find it awhile ago when I remembered it but I couldn't for the life of me 😭

7:02 I refuse to believe that is a real person😂

Dang. This was a huge blast from the past. My siblings and I watched nearly every let's player you mentioned on here (with the exception of GlitchMaster7), and they're home to some of our fondest childhood memories. Thank you for making this video so that I could relive them.

a day with a new chazington video is a good day indeed. your editing and comedy style gives me life.

why did we have the exact same childhood

@@neonthunder3261 sonic is what got me into his channel back when I used to watch SGB let's plays & brain scratch coms. 😆. I always get kinda melancholy to see all the old channels I used to watch just up & die because they never adapted to modern times :( but at least Clement founded his stride again with other vids

I come from an even older school of let's plays, back when it was people playing emulated games and commentating over them. They became most notable for being featured in Retsupurae, and were chiefly mocked for their inane commentary - ironic that this inane commentary is what came to define the genre down the line.

"at one point i think the number of zack pvz episodes surpassed the number of one piece episodes" is what i said to my friend while we were in a call when we get to 7:20 he repeated what i said

2014 i kept coming home to a new Zack video playing some Garden Warfare. he helped me through a lot of tough times. i love the man and i could never repay that back❤

Growing old is great, but man, I hate being reminded of it when I see old channels. I miss yah GhostRobo

16:35 its so weird seeing someone else online hit point after point on things they watched throughout life and interests they had and just how closely they reflect yours. Im starting to remeber stuff I used to be into and watch. Like remember fidget spinners??? that stuff was all the talk at school, and the content on youtube at that time was so kid friendly and clickbaity, while at the same time having stuff like content cop and other edgy videos on there. i was going to write something here about some youtubers and lets players i used to watch but i literally cant do so without being overwhelemed with emotions and i dont want to do that right now. awesome video man

I remember I was really young and I was watching zackscott on my sister’s computer while she was in the same room (she was also pretty young). I remember they were playing Minecraft and like they were building a rocket and then I think zackscott said “shut the hell up” and my sister said something like “hey that’s a bad word you can’t be watching that” and then I never watched zackscott ever again

i miss old zack. i remember being 5 and watching his Minecraft lets play and his pikmin3 playthrough. if it was not for zack, i would now even know pikmin exists and its my favorite game franchise. thank you zack, for everything (ps, thanks to dan for minecraft and spore aswell, loved there series)

i remember waking up at 5 in the morning when i was like 7 to watch zackscott play pvz garden warfare i do not regret it one bit

I just searched up Zackscott and found a video from less than 30 minutes ago, I’m mainly rewatching every Mortal Kombat video since i loved those, and thanks for reminding me, about how nostalgic watching him is, I already wanna rewatch his TWD videos and just TWD videos in general.

That was such a chaotic video. But I watched thru to the end. I started a Let's Play channel relatively recently, and ZackScottGames was a big inspiration. I love the simplicity that he approaches games with. Just a pure, "I'm here to play the game and enjoy" type of vibe. No fat, no side-content, no posturing. And I love Nintendo games. Zack and Chuggaaconroy are big inspirations, especially because they are still going. And like you said, they've largely not changed. Thanks for the video!

It’s crazy how almost everyone in the minecraft bubble became some kind of criminal. At least it feels that way.

They still make videos. Emile still makes let's plays daily. Tim and Jon stream now, but Tim uploads on youtube to this day.

I kid you not, Zebra Gamer straight up changed my life. So basically I watched something on KZread that I wasn’t supposed to. (it was Nathaniel Bandy video don’t question it) so basically, I was kicked out from KZread and possibly kicked out from one of my big enjoyment of my life… *UNTIL* I kid you not while my parents were on Amazon prime, they found a let’s play of Mario Odyssey from some guy named “Zebra Gamer”. And ever since then, he’s literally been my comfort KZreadr. it’s just the way he makes content it’s just enjoyable and happy. Even at my age, where I feel like I would grow out as of his content, that’s impossible for me because I love it so flipping much. He’s also done so much stuff for my life it’s nuts. He’s the reason I’m back on KZread due to his Mario Maker 2 playthrough, as I wanted to see the episodes as they came up. (I even got one of my levels featured in a video) He’s the reason why PvZ is one of my favorite franchises of all time due to his GW2 let’s play. there’s also some other stuff I’m forgetting on the top of my head, so yeah. Basically what I’m saying is this guy saved my life. I literally wouldn’t have the friends I do without him. I know this sounds like some stupid story, but literally all this happened. He’s goaded with the sauce.

I loved the old days of Vanoss and friends, they introduced me into pc games and lead me down the road to choosing computer science as a career

Its sad how letsplays have died in recent years, they were my childhood. Also, You just reminded me of Zackscott, I remember enjoying his plants vs zombies series, along with the Pokémon let’s plays.

This was a really good video but since it seems I finally found someone who likes ZackScott as much as me I'm gonna talk about why ZackScott is awesome, I used to watch him play Paper Mario Sticker Star back in the day and he is the ONLY reason why I like that game now. His old ZackScott channel is actually a underrated gem of the past, and I like how you mentioned he has been changing his style of videos lately, because I've noticed it too and I hope it works because he is definitely the best let's player out there. Anyway this was a good video man I'm definitely gonna subscribeifyouhavenot

this is like a compilation of random thoughts skipping back and forth

Game Grumps, TFS Plays, Super Best Friends, and occasionally Brainscratch Coms were what I watched. Good times.

i just fucking love how he just talks about something and then mentions something else out of nowhere 14:19

6:20 everyone here's remembering thinknoodles for his minecraft videos and meanwhile i remember him most for those poptropica walkthroughs he did fun fact he actually added me to his poptropica friends list and i still have the account he friended me on to this very day

Bro seeing blitz on this actually made me happy asf

1:50 take it back

The last Let’s Play I think I watched in its entirety was probably Markiplier’s playthrough of Inscryption. It was a lot of fun following the mystery of the game alongside him and actually seeing the love he had for it. Nothing else has come close since then…
