VaatiVidya

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.

• 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.

The Exploring Series has tons and tons of videos exploring the SCP foundation and Warhammer 40k. I never got around to reading all of the Red Sea Object stories, so I really appreciated his video about it

TheEpicNate315 has a ton of videos about The Elder Scrolls (mainly Skyrim) and Fallout (mainly Fallout 4), though many of them are just well-substantiated fan theories rather than lore

Spacedock makes videos about fictional starships. For example, the ships of Cowboy Bebop

Shout out to Wendigoon, who makes a wide variety of videos, mainly following spooky themes but branching out sometimes. His latest video is basically a walkthrough/total explanation of Faith: The Unholy Trinity, but he’s also made videos such as the Hilarious Death of Archduke Franz Ferdinand and That Time the CIA Faked a Vampire Attack to Take Over a Country.
