Not currently in the mood for soulslikes tbh - stuck playing League again D:
Internet Pitstop (https://www.youtube.com/@InternetPitstop) would be my pick here. He’s made a number of video essays on a wide variety of topics related to soulslikes, which I’ve enjoyed a lot. He’s giving NakeyJakey in a way, but he’s made a name for himself and sets himself apart with his cool attitude and interesting aesthetics/set pieces for me. Huge recommendation definitely.
What I mean by “unknown” is a content creator that’s not widely known in the soulslike community, like Zullie, Vaati, or Iron Pineapple - someone that doesn’t get millions of views per video.
Who’s your pick?
Oof, I’m not familiar with any small channels but I enjoy a lot people that do fan animation and parodies. The amount of dedication and love that goes into those videos, damn!
These are not small channels, If y’all are like me, (adults with videogame brain rot) you probably know them as well, But in case someone does not I’ll share some.
Matthew Shezmen ( animated parodies of elden ring/ dark souls /sekiro and others) some even feature lenght. Has a SoTE one coming soon.

I’ll check internet pitstop out, thanks!
I think you just listed all the best parody material, to be honest. “Happy Souls” is fun too:

Edit: Okay, Happy Ring is worth a chuckle or two:

I already knew of and loved “Happy Souls”
But I hadn’t seen “Happy Ring” yet, definitely worth a chuckle. Not quite as good as Happy Souls, but I was thoroughly entertained. (The short Caelid segment as Doom was particularly fun-)
