Luigikid Gaming

René Pascal Rafael Wurz (born: ), better known online as Luigikid Gaming or just Luigikid, is an Austrian gaming YouTuber. As of March 19, 2022, he lives in Austria together with his girlfriend Becci. Becci also has a YouTube Channel, but unlike René, she does German gaming videos.
==History==
René joined YouTube on July 31, 2007, and since then has become more popular. He is a gaming YouTuber, but he also does reaction videos as well. He is mainly famous for playing "exe" games, which rooted from the famous internet game and creepypasta, "Sonic.EXE". He also frequently plays fan games, and is somewhat famous for playing Mario related games. He has also made YouTube Poops when the channel was created in 2007.
==Content==
One of his most popular videos "Randy Orton New Theme - Voices in My Head (Luigi)" earned more than 1 million views after it was posted in July 2008.
But the most popular video now is the video "TOY STORY.EXE - RIP CHILDHOOD" which was uploaded on January 11, 2015.
His first video he uploaded is called: "Super-Cena-Mario My Time is now." which he uploaded on August 22, 2007.
His content primarily revolves around Creepypasta Games, especially EXE related Games. He also plays Horror related ROM Hacks such as "THE BACKROOMS" ROM Hack, shown in "THE BACKROOMS 64" Video. Other than Horror related Games, he also plays Friday Night Funkin and its Mods, as well streams them on the occasion. Currently he has not made a lot of content for Friday Night Funkin, most likely due to his channel's main focus. (It was then revealed in one of his videos that he didn't make more Friday Night Funkin videos due to the controversies revolving around the Community itself) He also plays some submissions from his Challenges.
Other than Gaming, he also does reaction videos, mostly reacting to Horror related videos and SMG4. He also does Vlogging videos but rarely unlike before.
== Personality==
René has an interesting personality: instead of having a crazy and confusing playing style like other YouTubers, René is rather calm-minded and rarely resorts to jokes. When he loses, or something shocking happens he gets louder and yells, with some occasions he curses in German. In most of his videos, he would often make comments and constantly analyzes the game's structures (story, gameplay, etc.) in a mostly positive light. He is also described to have a kind personality and usually feels aware when it comes to serious or sensitive topics. (For example, the topic of stalking as shown in "SERIOUSLY, STOP STALKING US!" video where he plays a game that is also a submission for his Luigikid Creepypasta Challenge called "THE MEETING".)
