My name is Hugh, and my wife works at Unknown Worlds on Subnautica, Moonbreaker and more. Once upon a time, I worked for them too! I remain a fanboy, and this channel is where I share my enthusiasm for NS2 and other UWE games. Email: hugh@blinkybeach.com
About NS2HD
NS2HD is a YouTube channel run by Hugh, who posts commentary and gameplay focused on Natural Selection 2 and other Unknown Worlds titles. The channel has about 12,500 subscribers and mostly low-production videos, typically 8 to 12 minutes long, that mix match recordings and anniversary updates. The videos are narrated and built around in-game play rather than polished edits.
The audience appears to be a small, dedicated group of strategy and shooter fans, likely skewing toward adult male gamers in English-speaking countries. These demographics are estimates from channel content and have low confidence. The median view count is modest, so the channel suits niche game awareness rather than mass reach.
Brand work is minimal, with no sponsorships detected in the last 50 videos. Sponsored integrations are estimated at $150 to $250 per video, which works out to roughly $20 to $35 CPM per 1,000 median views, compared with $10 to $30 CPM for typical paid ads. This makes NS2HD a fit for small game publishers and hardware brands targeting the Natural Selection 2 community.
