I don't know of anyone charging to watch MC videos. Maybe as Patreon bonuses?
I don't remember anyone specific of the top of my head, but as well as Patreon, YouTube subscriptions also can have exclusive content, afaik.
I know a YT channel that does MC videos, and has a few members only bonus videos on the side. I guess these are no longer allowed now.
I think it's targeting people who get their lets plays on actually (shitty) streaming services.
You're not kidding. I stumbled upon one on roku and they were the lamest let's players. Totally aiming for that 10 year old audience with the way they talked and how child friendly it was. Mind you, I'm not going at them for being child friendly, I'm going at them for not knowing basic mechanics that anyone whose played 5 minutes figures out.
