A video with a more relaxed and casual focus on the game that is being played.
A playthrough is often a video with live commentary on and is the most popular form for YouTube gaming videos.

A playthrough is not to be confused with a walkthrough as a walkthrough is a strategy guide and a playthrough is not.

Playthrough is considered the same as a "Let's play" and is also spelled "play through" or "play-through"
Guy 1: Did you see that guy's Metro: Last light walkthrough?
Guy 2: Would hardly call it a walkthrough, he was just messing around and it was obvious that he hadn't played the game beforehand, i would call it a "Let's play" or "Playthrough" if anything.
