Reactors who are just fans of stuff reacting to more stuff are a dime a dozen, and to me at least not very interesting. A lot of them, it just feels like they're trying to monetize the popularity of [insert copyrighted whatnot] as if it were 'content', without bothering to bring any actual content to the table.
I find the best 'reaction' videos are from reactors who have some level of actual domain expertise (i.e. professional music developers, or people who studied music theory), who not only react to awesome things, but can tell you why they're awesome. I don't find that very often with video game music.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TeCtO_9E0LE is a good example I came across recently, and I was disappointed that he doesn't do blind reactions as a regular thing; he has other video game music breakdowns, but he tends to do them as prepared video essays/lessons instead.
