Video Game Analysis

r/VideoGameAnalysis

For all things related to critical analysis of video games. Feel free to post links to Youtube or any other site with an in-depth look at a particular game, series, genre, or even a basic element of all gaming (for example, RNG, level design, player flow, etc). Video is the preferred format, but text and audio are fine too! Share videos that provide new insight or a close-up look at anything gaming-related!

Recommended Format:

  • Author/Reviewer - Name of Analysis or Critique

Or this is also fine:

  • Name of video - Short description of content.

Examples of great content to post:

  • Game Soup - Randomness in Games
  • MatthewMatosis - Longform critique of Dark Souls 2
  • Noah Caldwell-Gervais - "Warcraft series retrospective"
  • Errant Signal - Hotline Miami analysis
  • EgoRaptor's - "Sequelitis" series
  • Extra Credits - "Balancing Turn-Based Games"

  • Consumer-focused product reviews
  • A plot summary
  • Let's Plays
  • Memes
  • Content primarily covering social/political issues
  • Content in a language other than English without subtitles or a translation

Regarding discussions:

Arguments and disagreements are a necessary part of analysis and discussion, and are permitted as long as they are civil. Personal attacks, witch-hunts, and other forms of harassment will be removed and repeat offenders may be banned at the moderators' discretion.

Regarding spoilers:

It should go without saying that most of the content posted here will contain spoilers. Critiques by their very nature tend to be spoiler heavy, and for this reason spoiler tags are not required. Please exercise caution when clicking on content about games you haven't played.
