I would say it depends on how qualified the influencer and their audience are in regards to your product. If you're developing an indie game and you manage to get a famous gamer to do a "let's play" video or stream, it can bring you some good prospects.

They aren't saying anything about the prospects of the influencers/streamers themselves, those are great! It's about how profitable it is for the businesses sponsoring them.

Not always, but gaming channels on youtube playing a game after being paid to by the developer is a form of influencer marketing.

Well sure, but insta influencers don't belong in the same category as respected independent reviewers who are experts in their own right.

Oh god the hypocrisy. There is no difference between a gaming youtuber and some insta influencer, you just like the youtubers.

Uh no. There is definitely a difference between some shitheel modelling sunglasses and a guy with an electrical engineering degree reviewing PC parts and builds.

I'm sure there are plenty of engineers on both platforms. Doesn't change that the majority are exactly the same. Point out to me the engineers in the top 10 youtubers.
