This page exists so you do not have to scroll a whole catalogue to find a good first watch, and the channel is built around solo PvE, the quiet, deliberate, sometimes silly stuff you do when there is no team to carry you and no one to perform for. The entry points below are grouped by mood, so pick the one that matches how you feel right now and go from there, because there is a right door for the mood you are in, and that is the whole point of sorting it this way rather than by the date I happened to upload. I would rather you leave after one video that fits than stay for three that do not, which is the only orientation I trust.
If you want it played straight
If you like patience, positioning, and a single clean shot, start in the cold, because One sniper, one snowstorm, total silence, Ghost Recon Breakpoint is the channel at its most still, a slow approach where the weather does half the work and one misread ends it. It is the closest thing I have to a mission statement, with no music and no talking over it, just reading a position and waiting for the right moment, which is less relaxing than the snow makes it look. When you want the same discipline with the difficulty cranked, go to Realism Mode #1 in Ghost Recon Wildlands, where the handholding is stripped out and every patrol matters, with no minimap crutch and no forgiving health, just you and a plan that has to actually hold up. These two are the best sense of how I actually like to play, and if the slow burn does nothing for you, the rest of the channel probably will not either, so it is a fair test before you subscribe to a silence you do not want.
If you want a mess instead of the silence
Some days you do not want silence, you want a mess, and Play as anyone chaos in Watch Dogs Legion leans into recruiting whoever I bump into and seeing how far the free roam bends. Half the fun is finding out what the game will actually let a random pensioner or a bloke in a hard hat get away with, and I have not found the bottom of that yet. I strapped a jet to a launcher, Just Cause 4 is exactly what it says, an experiment that gets away from me in the best way, which is more or less the whole appeal of that game’s physics once you stop pretending you had a plan. And when you want the noise to settle into something quieter and a bit melancholy, Beautiful wasteland in Mad Max is a slower wander through a world that looks far better than it had any right to, and it is the open-world pick for when you want to sightsee more than smash things.
Sniper work, and the stealth that will not cut you slack
If the long game is your thing, this is the heart of the channel, and Eliminating an army at a trainyard, Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts is methodical work, picking apart a guarded position one careful angle at a time. It is the sort of run where the satisfaction is in the order you take them down, not the body count, and I still prefer the quiet sequence to the clip that only shows the last one falling. For pure stealth under pressure, No room for error, Master Difficulty in Hitman 3 is the run where one slip genuinely ends the attempt, which is what makes it worth watching to the end, because there is no reloading your way out of a mistake and every step is a decision. That tension is exactly the kind of thing that does not translate to a highlight clip, so you have to sit with it, which is the point of watching the run through to the end.
Where I would send you after the first one
Once you have a favourite, the way to keep going is to browse everything by title on the games page, where each game has its own hub, so if one of these clicked you can go straight to more of the same without scrolling past a mood you have already ruled out. If you want a proper orientation to the channel and what it is about, the WillyB HQ page lays it out plainly, and when you just want to dig through the whole lot, the full video catalogue is right there with no sorting required. There is no hard sell in any of that, so watch a couple, see if the slow, solo style is for you, and if it is, the simplest way to keep up is to subscribe on YouTube. New runs land there first, and everything else on this site is just here to help you find the good ones, which is a smaller promise than a channel trailer and a more honest one.
FAQ
Where should I start with WillyB's videos?
Pick a mood, because if you want slow, tactical play, start with the Ghost Recon snowstorm sniper run, if you want chaos, start with the Watch Dogs Legion free roam, and if you want patient stealth, start with the Hitman Master Difficulty run. Every link on this page is a solid first watch, and the sorting is there so the catalogue does not make you guess which silence you were after.
What games does WillyB play?
I mostly play solo PvE, tactical shooters like Ghost Recon Breakpoint and Wildlands, open-world games like Watch Dogs Legion, Just Cause 4, and Mad Max, and stealth and sniper titles like Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts and Hitman. You can browse them all on the games page, which is the shelf once a single video has told you whether the pace is yours.
Do the videos played here count as YouTube views?
Yes, every video plays through the real YouTube player embedded on the page, so views and watch time count exactly as they do on YouTube. The page is using that player on purpose, which means a watch here is the same watch you would have given the video by opening it there.
What is a good chaotic open-world video to start with?
If you want a mess rather than silence, start with the Watch Dogs Legion free roam, where I recruit whoever I bump into and see how far it bends, including the pensioner and the bloke in the hard hat. Just Cause 4, where I strap a jet to a launcher, and Mad Max's slower, melancholy wander round out the open-world picks, so the chaos has a quieter neighbour if the mess gets old.
What kind of content is the channel built around?
The channel is built around solo PvE, the quiet, deliberate, sometimes silly stuff you do when there is no team to carry you and no one to perform for. The videos are grouped by mood so you can pick whatever matches how you feel right now, which is a kinder index than an upload date when you only have one evening.
How do I keep up with new WillyB videos?
The simplest way is to subscribe on YouTube, where new runs land first, and once you have a favourite you can browse everything by title on the games page or dig through the full video catalogue. New runs land there before they land anywhere else on this site, which is why the subscribe button is the one I would use once the slow solo style has already convinced you.

Ghost Recon BreakpointThe Spartan Protocol: my modded Ghost Recon Breakpoint series, and every mod I use
The Spartan Protocol is my Ghost Recon Breakpoint series, a growing stack of separate community mods that change how the game plays and looks, and it is not an official update or a single download. The foundation is the Spartan Mod plus the threat, audio and reticle mods, with real-world weapons added across the series, and the whole setup is PC only.27 Jun 2026Read
Ghost Recon WildlandsIs Ghost Recon Wildlands Worth It in 2026? Yes
Yes, Ghost Recon Wildlands is worth it in 2026, because it is a huge finished open-world tactical sandbox that plays superbly solo, especially once the realism settings are on and the HUD is no longer doing the thinking. It is one of the best-value tactical games you can buy, and I would buy it again tomorrow at the price it sells for now.20 Jun 2026ReadNew field reports, to your inbox
