I woke up this morning to some bizarre dream about starting a gaming channel in 2025. Imagine that! It’s like reality took a brief vacation and left me this tiny absurd idea as a souvenir. Have you seen the state of gaming in this odd future we find ourselves inching towards? Apparently, it’s all about VR headsets that make your living room look like the starship Enterprise.

Now, if I were seriously to dive into this chaos, I’d first chuck my old squeaky office chair for one of those fancy gaming thrones that look like they belong in a sci-fi movie (because, comfort is king and all that jazz). There’s also this thing called ‘immersive VR smell technology’. Good grief. So you can actually smell the pixelated coffee shops in those virtual worlds. Sounds peachy until you end up in one of those post-apocalyptic wasteland games and gag from the stench of digital rubble. Just…no.
Let’s talk content for a second. Everyone seems obsessed with retro game remakes by now. Someone explain why everyone desperately wants to escape to an 8-bit past like they’ve forgotten how mind-numbingly frustrating blowing on cartridges was. By 2025, I’ll probably need to become a drama queen and throw in some live-action role play (yes, like marketing yourself as ‘the next Gandalf of gaming’).
And then, there’s community. Apparently, creators will have these intense, almost cult-like follower groups. Like you’d log on to find a bunch of commenting devotees who treat your random gameplay like a sacred ritual (a bit terrifying if you ask me). I saw a bizarre list predicting these so-called loyal communities and I couldn’t help but laugh. Who has time for cult management on top of creating content?!
Tech-savvy merch is going to be a thing too. So, we’re talking gamer hoodies that light up with alerts and subscriptions. Literal clothing calling for attention. How ridiculous is that? Though, it does beat the silver platform boots from the 70s, I guess.

So, indeed, 2025 gaming channels might be a wild blend of VR craziness, weird retro revivals, and far too enthusiastic fan mobs. Frankly, I think I’m already exhausted just imagining how many robotic devices I’d need to operate all at once. My eyes still hurt. I need coffee. Ugh.
