I've properly watched the [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fgLJ7rTGc-M]Cloud Gaming[/url] video all the way through, and this is going to be "proper" criticism. I'm going to cover everything in the video, mind you, although we'll get to the most important parts right away; the points you adressed.
You seem to, from the get go, assume Cloud Gaming is in any way [I]supposed[/I] to replace traditional gaming. This is simply not the case. Cloud Gaming, and OnLIVE specifically, is geared towards weaker computers. Or in some cases, mobile devices! Anything not capable of running those games, mainly.
And as for streaming being bad...it is. I can't debate you on that. But that's just because of current poor internet service. I garuntee that these services were designed with things like Google Fiber in mind, because, once you have Google Fiber, streaming games will cease to be an issue. But Google Fiber isn't everywhere yet, and until it is, streaming will suck sometimes. But not all the time. Streaming as a whole isn't going to damage regularly gaming services even remotely, so it's hardly worth complaining about.
And now, here's a few reasons, despite the points you've made being [I]somewhat sensible[/I], people may hate your videos.
For starters, you come across as a very arrogant guy when you talk. You have this attitude that makes it seem like you "know" you're right. Hell, at the end of each video, you're not asking for a friendly debate. You definitely seem like a bit of a know-it-all, and that's obviously reflecting poorly on you.
And getting into the finer points of the video, I think alot of people disagree with your choices of music. That, and again, getting into unrelated details, your artstyle [url=http://i.imgur.com/RG9nvZu.png]leaves alot to be desired[/url] in the visual department. Not to say you're bad at drawing, it's just a bit odd looking. I'm merely mentioning it in the effort of bringing up people may not like them.
Also, if you write a script for these videos, it sure doesn't seem like it. I know that "rants" typically aren't scripted, but if you're not sure that you can say the words you need to say without speaking clearly or knowing exactly what you have in mind to say, scripting it before you start talking is generally a good idea. You didn't seem like you had a clear direction to go in for the video, other then "I dislike Cloud Gaming so I'll talk about it infront of a microphone". And, sorry to say, a bad quality microphone at that. Your voice was too quiet compared to the music and you stuttered too much.
It just wasn't a very...enjoyable watch? I understand that you're ranting, but if the video isn't good, it's not good. There's plenty of ways to make Rants enjoyable for the viewer, and I don't think yours was any of them.

I am aware that cloud gaming was made for weaker machines, however it doesn't make sense for gamers since most will either have a mid-ranged console or gaming rig. Could gaming may work for something small and casual but what I mainly was focusing on was it trying to be forced on hardcore gaming (especially single player games). It won’t really be conventional until at least 20 years from now which is a stretch to say. If we don’t voice are concerns things may end up like the Xbox one.
OK now to touch on the arrogance thing. I've been told this by a number of people on my gaming videos. Much Like Blackbustercritic I don’t care what others think of how I act or how I sound, what I care about is that people listen to what I say in my videos. As visuals are concerned I try to improve on them whenever I can though sometimes quality will fluctuate depending on what’s going on at the time. Generally I don’t script my videos I will have an outline for most though. I’ll admit long strings of dialogue aren't my strong point but I’m trying to improve that. I am sure whether the stuttering is an issue from my mild autism or not but that’s being worked on. The mic is a known issue and I am trying to get a better one but can’t right now. If you didn't enjoy it OK, But concerning the next video be sure to listen to what I say. It was quite fun talking to you and look forward to the next thread.

It's not being "forced" on anyone, PC gamers least of all. And it's obviously designed for people with good internet in mind.

Well this is just a bad attitude. You should care about how people think of how you act or sound, considering you're trying to, ya' know, appeal to your viewers. That doesn't mean you have to suck up to them, but considering you acknowleged the arragonce and are using "I don't care" as an excuse reflects poorly on you.

I'd suggest scripting them, but if you do improve your long strings of dialouge, it won't be an issue.

Oh, the stuttering isn't a big issue. Don't dwell on it. And it's good that you're taking initiative for the mic. Although regarding the mic, you could easily just increase the volume of your voice in post...the main issue is that you're too quiet.

i actually wouldnt suggest scripting your next video if super flappy bird was the result of your writing

The Xbox one has gotten better, however Microsoft still doesn't have the gamer in their best interest so I still wont be buying it, This isn't a bandwagon when every time news on the consoles comes out its bad.

Its still a threat to core gamers if people don't speak up. More then 60 percent of gamers are offline including pc so yes it would negatively impact them. Again people shouldn't get caught up in the way I act, If something is stupid ill be angry which isn't bad. I can tell you think through what you say which I admire. If we ever debate factually about gaming it will be a worth while one.
