Its very hard to tell people how to do good tags, as its all based on YT SEO (Search Engine Optimisation), all I would do is focus on putting meaningful tags, try not to go overboard but definitely outline the game, so for example with the Evil Within video you did a while ago I see that you had some less meaningful tags such as "rescue, disarm and turning" which would never really bring me to think of the evil within.

Keep them short I would have done something like "The Evil Within", "Lets Play The Evil Within", "The Evil Within Chapter 5", "Horror", "The Evil Within Gameplay" and maybe a few others, but those would be the main ones for me that I would definitely include. Also I wouldn't advertise your videos so much in your chapter 5 pat 1 you have advertisement every minute, yes that means if someone watches through your video you should get a bit of money in your pocket but its just really annoying to see, maybe have them every 5 minutes or so depending on video length.

just use tags that are very commen and wich has something to do with your video. not too much of the same or something that doesn't have to do. because that's spamm and you channel can get terminated for that. also use tags that almost no one is using but still has to do with your video. that's all

Use tags which fit the video. For example, if you have comedic gameplay, you do "Game name" "funny" "humor" "comedy" and even add the type of comedy if needed.
For guides and stuff, it is more complicated. However just use tags which fit for your video, or use Heartbeat/Tubebuddy.

Tubebuddy is indeed a good alternative to gain tag options, furthermore everything that is in common with the video can be used a tag and split words. Basic everything that tells something about the video is important to tag, is it 'Entertainment' or 'Funny' or is it a Game like 'Guild Wars' 'Guild' 'Wars'

I was using Tubebuddy before but now am not using it anymore cuz I read that anyone who use this will be demoted or something like that and I never used it anymore after this I don't really remember what they said about it but this is why I stopped using it

What i know regarding TubeBuddy that the sponsorship with Freedom has ended so it may have something to do with that. The services ain't bad but to be honest i don't use it myself either. Have used it in the past but since the sponsorship ended i stopped using it.
