Are Comedy Youtubers Dying Out? (not literally)

[ThatGuyMan]

I'm alone.
You see, I have a small channel on youtube, and post mainly vlog/skit videos. A LOT of growing channel tips always emphasise on COLLABORATION. Unfortunately..... its kind of hard for a skit Youtuber to collaborate with someone who is sitting in front of a computer gaming :/

THIS IS WHERE I NEED YOUR HELP. You see, in the youtube community I have grown in, a "new youtuber" always refers to a gamer.

Have you guys seen any small funny QUALITY content youtubers?

Do you know why the gaming community has suddenly OVERSHADOWED the comedy community? (is it maybe because of the sudden success stories of gamers on youtube)

Is there a way comedy youtubers could collaborate with gamers?

I did try gaming for a bit on my channel, but it just isn't my thing as of now. But would it be the RIGHT choice to continue? Are comedy youtubers just not relevant anymore?

Would love to hear from you guys, and also, THANKS FOR READING TILL HERE!!!

Unless the comedy script is related to the game directly and the acting can be done in the game, it should be viable. I haven't played minecraft, but if there is a multiplayer option that can be feasible. Agario has a private server setting so you can do your collaboration and scripting. I know, it is a ton of work.

Gamers typically do not work well with comedians. I do not recommend finding a high profile gamer nor someone else who loves to play games.; they are too focused on the play and not on the acting. You don't need to be a gamer, you just need capability to script, act, and play the game in whichever way you want.

I'm also a "new Youtuber" but I don't play games. I haven't seen any people either.
