I just wouldn't work with their content. It's dialogue heavy so they'd have to be quiet for a lot of it or end up talking over the plot which won't be entertaining for non-gamers who watch purely for banter. It's fully voice acted so they can't even be inventive with their own voice overs (Undertale & Horse Prince). It's gameplay is also very stringent in where you go and when so no messing around or exploring (Yandere Simulator & Who's Your Daddy). I just don't see it working out.
i never thought about it this way, but i see your point that the voice acting and stringent plot might make not work out so well with their usual gameplay, it'd definitely be a challenge and they'd have to tackle it somewhat differently. however, i could still see them doing it in somewhat similar fashion to jacksepticeye's playthrough, i.e. being calm and listening while the story unfolds, bant
and probably scream while you're walking around and nothing heavy is happening, then do a recap/conclusion at the end of the episode. but maybe that really wouldn't be appealing to the mysterious creature that is the casual viewer. (seriously, there must be so many of these, and i just want to know how they're feeling about deppy videos. i forgot what it's like to be this person.)
but oh well, it doesn't seem probable that this ever happens in any case. although, maybe in true "you guys have been demanding this for YEARS and now we'll give the people what you want ARE YOU HAPPY" fashion...? some day?
tl;dr i'm desperate for a new series that i can get emotionally invested in while i watch them being emotionally invested.
*that one sound effect* invest-ception in slightly related news, i really hope they move the focus of the sims series to the next gen soon because while i still enjoy it i'm getting a bit tired of dil like...i understand he's your son but...just let him go to work in peace and focus on the other characters in the meantime...i'd even watch a tabitha-related work episode or something. i also hope the next one will really be the house renovation...please.
