Great as an informative walkthrough

HC Bailly is a Let's Player whose main priority is showing off all the details on how to get a game done.

He will show all available pathways, secrets, and abilities whenever possible unless he deems there to be too many (during times where there's an absurdly high amount), or being far too minor to matter. Even when he doesn't cover something, he will at least mention it. Though his voice makes him sound smug, he's actually pretty nice. He pretends to be smug and arrogant on occasion, but he's just joking around.

Not the funniest player out there, but he has his moments (especially when his brother joins in), and he has gotten livelier since his beginning. He wears the nostalgia goggles fairly tight, but won't ignore a modern game's genuine merits. If the game he's currently playing is one of his favorites, he will gush about it at any spare opportunity, though he does have a pretty good taste.

A bit of a Motor Mouth, he has no qualms talking through emotional or dramatic scenes in a game, despite on occasion claiming to not talk (and failing). He also seems to be a tinge sensitive, as it would not be too hard to get blocked for leaving a nasty comment. But he knows what he's doing in the game, so the only other room this leaves is for if the one leaving the comment was just trying to push his buttons.

The genre of choice for HC Bailly is JRPG, with occasional steps into other, though similar, territory. At the time of this review, he's Let's Played ten of the fourteen (and counting) Final Fantasy games (1-9, 13).

HC also has many catch phrases, enough to get their own sub page. It is interesting, if one knows the game he's playing, to try to see which one he'll say next.

In short, his strength is being informative- showing off almost all possible details. His humor and personality are pleasant most of the time, only occasionally falling flat. If you want to 100% your game, HC Bailly is someone to check out.

I've always that that HC Bailly's voice sounds like Norm Macdonald's. Has anyone noticed that?

Actually, I thought he sounded like Viddler, another popular Lets Player on youtube.
