Sometimes minecraft roleplay youtube shines as a medium because you get to see the same stories played out from different characters’ perspectives, giving you a more thorough understanding of their motives and thought processes, how narrative style can alter how a story is told, and how conflict can arise and be resolved in a domino esque fashion through seemingly innocuous and unconnected actions taken by multiple characters
Other times it shines because a group of youtubers will get together in a business meeting and one of them will go “hey I am going to place 250k blocks of dirt on top of our colleague’s base as a prank” and the others will have to offer to help because that is so wild none of them want to miss out on the content opportunity, and in doing so they will imply that their character is 100% down to spend an estimated 14 hours - 42 in universe minecraft days - shovelling dirt just to mess with one of their neighbours
