If It is, then I'm going to be wondering what happened to the three bajilion or more game channels I am forever telling @YouTube I am sick of seeing in my feed. There are 3. I watch and it's because they are friends. Am I losing their content too?

Probably copyright complications. People with rights to the music, the game manufacturers having rights to the game content, and fair use is less clear than people ever assume. Still stupid. Good way to boost some competition though. Twitch by no means bans that.

If game companies would just stop being greedy and make good games it would be free advertisement. I hope that's not it though. Gaming and YouTube go so hand and hand.

Advertising is often already free. Exposure is rarely something the companies fighting these battles are lacking. Nintendo, for instance, by no means needs the extra "advertising" of someone playing Pokemon games (modded or legit). And indie devs often include those permissions.

I would disagree. It's very noticeable to me the games that advertise vs the games that don't. Sure some cases some games will sell themselves but thats definitely not always the case. I would argue even the norm. Nintendo is like a cult classic.

What company that doesn't already have their marketing well covered (in a far more controlled way) and their names well known is trying to claim gameplay videos, issuing takedowns, etc?

I'm having a hard time understanding this first tweet. However I have seen some companies in gaming use various techniques to suppress bad reviews. Not sure if that's what you're asking.

Not really. That's more outright censorship, and many times at odds with the law. Some companies are fairly notorious for not just allowing gameplay footage to be used (not to mention showcasing unauthorized mods and such). Like Nintendo.

Oh really? Please go play madden and then look at the review from ign or any major review channel.

Um, no thanks? I'm not into sports or sports video games. EA (who owns the franchise) also is a giant. Plus I said the thing you described was closer to outright censorship and often runs at odds with the law, not remotely that it doesn't happen. So why exactly would I?

I guess my issue is solely with aaa titles. Because that's where most of the bad in gaming comes from.

Fair enough. And, I mean, it's no surprise. They can easily get away with it. Screw them. That and fight back (even legally, if you can, you in the general sense) when they try to use copyright law for censorship of criticism. That's a protected use (though use minimal amounts).
