For those of a particular vintage, Petersen isn’t particularly popular because of his… experimental approach to Doom mapping. His YouTube is great through - he sets the record straight on Doom; speaks openly about the gaming industry; and also delves deep into tabletop gaming if that’s your thing.
He’s one of the OGs and therefore had a huge impact on gaming in general, but my god his maps for Doom and Quake are by far the worst parts of those games.

A few weeks ago he popped up a video on his YouTube Short feed which covers it well.
