How's that Youtube channel coming along anon?

I don't think that's video games!

Be for real, why do you care?

fuck off

>>724534393
Because I'm going to make one and want to know how it's going for other anons.

>>724534207 (OP)
I mean YouTube's pretty much circling the shitter at this point, so why should anyone bother?

>>724534207 (OP)
>become a person you hate
I don't think I will, but good luck to you future parasites and murder victims.

>>724534935
People have been saying that for decades. Youtube does dumb shit all the time but there really isn't any decent alternative.

>>724534973
>murder victims
That's usually a problem for women.

There's really no reason not do if you don't plan on making it a career.
>>724534973
If you use any form of social media you're exposing yourself to losers like that.

>>724534207 (OP)
I have one but youtube kicked me out of the partner programme for inactivity 3 years back. I wasn't even trying and just uploaded what I wanted.

I got a check from google for $40 dollars though.

>>724535312
Don't you have to acquire a certain number of subs before they even allow monetization? That's not a concern for me right now, I just want to show off my epic gamer skillz. I'm also very lonely and talking to a mic is cathartic.

>>724534207 (OP)
i just need to record and finish some games to upload

Just crossed 200k recently :)

I'm going to use a steam deck to record footage in glorious 720p.

>>724535642
Any tips for beginners?

>>724535737
no fuck you, stop saturating the market. don't try

>>724535841
>stop saturating the market
This is the social media era anon, everybody is online in some form or another. You're just upset that you're not rich like your favorite eceleb.

Alright I see why these threads don't go well here. You're all so negative. I'll let you get back to enjoying the scat and gay porn spam.

>>724534207 (OP)
Terrible, but I'm having fun. Finally upgraded my CPU to a 9950X3D, and this has been a dream. Still working out stream settings, but the 2nd test stream I did turned out pretty fucking great quality wise. I can now stream any game I want without getting an "encoding overload" message, and in general modern games run fucking fantastic even while streaming and recording at the same time. I'm planning on recording everything in 1440p going forward. There's a fella who has been joining streams, chatting, even joined the discord and is active in it. Despite having god awful numbers, having 1 person willing to be active in the community discord is worth more than the 1k+ people who subscribed/followed and never return. I'm grateful and I look forward to building the community more.

Anyways, here's my final Post-Series Review. I start it off with a personal behind the scenes look on what it took to finally release the LP and how I learned to be a better live entertainer. During the actual game section, I tackle extremely hot button topics that plagued discussions of DQ3 HD-2D leading up to launch. I had a lot of fun with the theory crafting at the end. It's all timestamped so you can skip to whatever section if you'd like. Feel free to ask any questions. Also, post you channels!!! Bonus points for Let's Play channels.

it's because jannies have a hate boner for them and delete them

>>724535443
I applied for monetization when it first started, mid 2010's I think and there wasn't that 100k requirement.

>>724536856
Is that what it is now?

>>724534207 (OP)
You can't win. The big names have (((agencies))) that sponsor them. You have to do it for the love of the game.

I'm 457 videos deep and I only have 777 subscribers.

>>724536856
I think I may have received literally 0.01 dollars altogether from the monetization program. I used to be there, but they kicked me out around 2018 or so.

Calm down, lads!

>>724537260
I'm pretty sure it's obvious that popular YouTubers severely overshadow the obscure YouTubers.

>>724537260
>love of the game
I have a day job, I'm not doing this for money. Just for fun, you know a community is past it's heyday when women get involved.

How do I ensure my online friends don't post that embarrassing picture of me at the Christmas party when they find out I have a channel?

>>724535737
Believe in the Heart of the Cards

I got a steam deck to use for streaming. I have made a huge mistake.

>>724534207 (OP)
I'm too lazy to make anything high-effort, so I haven't uploaded in years.

>>724541187
buy a second steam deck to use as a dedicated streaming PC. Now your first will be able to handle the latest and greatest games. Now go make a million buckaroos soldier

>>724541467
You're not bamboozling me twice Gabe.

>>724534207 (OP)
Ive decided to become a bimbo vr streamer instead

Don't have friends to begin with.

>>724534207 (OP)
im autistic and have an unlistenable monotone voice. I get scared talking to people already irl because of it, what makes you think I could have a youtube channel?

>>724537538
>he thinks 200k is a lot
Ive hit 150k with zero effort just making cool vids for a semi-popular game showing tricks and bugs, no edits or voice even

>>724535841
in this age - meme tiktoks and stream daily, upload few times a week - make it your fulltime job or just forget it
youtube hates small channels

I'm currently working on two reviews, got all the voice recording done, just dragging my heels on the video editing.

>>724541925
I'm starting with just LPs so all the video editing I have to do is trimming the beginning and end and putting the socials and related videos at the end. I spent all night last night making my logo, tonight I should be making the ending screen and thumbnail template but I'm here instead.

>>724542059
>I spent all night last night making my logo
Nice. Let's see that shit.

>>724542059
What game are you starting with?

>>724537613
>I have a day job
What do you do anon-kun? I wanna stop NEETan myself, I'm looking for inspiration

>>724542139
It's a clever pun and I don't want anybody to steal it. So here's just part of it. All made from scratch, except the font, which I snagged from some free font site, but it was just black text so I spruced it up. The starry background I painted myself for a picture of Rosalina I made years ago. The checker pattern is for the channel banner.

>>724542169
RE5
>>724542493
Here's the Linda pic I painted like 4 years ago. I really didn't want to make a new BG so I just cannibalized some old art projects. I am going to make a Twitter and use my art to promote my channel and vice versa.

>>724534207 (OP)
Bad, and it will stay like that since I'm using an avatar to hide my ugly face + I'm ESL.
I have 138 subs in 3 years or something.
However, I'm having fun uploading my playthroughs to the channel.
I'm kinda doing what I like instead of what the audience wants to see.

>>724542471
Grocery store stocking. It's gives me access to good looking women.

>>724542493
I like what I see there.
As for mine, I slightly take pride in some semblance of cleverness, with the "7" being comprised of 7 squares. Threw the music jingle together in Korg DS-10 Synthesizer for the DS.

>>724542657
Simple.
Rustic.
Looks like the title screen of a PS1 game.

>>724542626
>hide my ugly face + I'm ESL
I realized that I have an advantage because I'm good looking, tall, White, speak American English and have a sexy voice.

>>724542753
Thanks, anon. Glad that got across.
As for the jingle, I was going for a "Metroid power-up item" vibe.

>>724541812
>im autistic and have an unlistenable monotone voice. I get scared talking to people irl because of it
me too anon
me too...

>>724543734
People tell me I have a serial killer face but when they just hear my voice they say it gives them ASMR.

>>724543734
>>724541812
Same here man, even my friends told me I have a boring voice, and I'm an overall boring person.
But I enjoy commenting on my playthroughs.
I guess I'm not into constant screaming during playthroughs that many people enjoy, sadly but it is what it is.
If you're having fun recording and posting on YouTube, that's all that matters, really.
Who give's a fuck what other people think about your videos, do it for yourself.
I'm a boring person, I have a boring voice, they can go and watch adhd zoomies who screams for all I care

>>724544597
Based-ass nigga.

>>724544597
Good mentality. My channel is going to look like an LP channel from 2012. Especially since I'm making graphics with a 16 year old version of photoshop elements.

the only thing i do is stream chip tune music whenever my pc is on. without promoting it or anything like that I got 35 subs. I don't do it to earn money I just want people to enjoy chip tunes.

What do you do about your Steam account name? I made the account like 15 years ago and named it after my waifu. It's kinda embarrassing now, should I make it match my Youtube account in case I play a game that shows the name?

Noone cares about steam handlers man

>>724546476
OK cool. I should take the Chad yes approach to this anyway.
>haha is that your waifu?
Yes.

Of course.
You're not ashamed of your words, deeds and your waifu, right?

>>724547068
>deeds
I'm ashamed that I've been a coomer for most of my life. But this is my chance to invest time into a positive hobby instead of gooning out of control for the millionth time.

>want to play video games
>feel like I'm objectively wasting my time if I play games without trying to stream
>feel guilty playing video games for fun and not "productively"
I'm in gamer hell

>>724547896
Take the niggerpill and start living in the moment more. You've let society turn you into a neurotic mess.

>>724548010
>You've let society turn you into a neurotic mess.
honestly I think it's the internet more than society as a whole
I've been terminally online for 17 years and the damage is immeasurable

>>724548091
Everybody is terminally online now. And everybody is a neurotic mess.

>>724534207 (OP)
Consistently 10-60 views, depending on the game. Averaging 40. Much better than the average of 5 views I was getting a few years ago. I'm just doing this to document retro games and show off gameplay, so it's never going to be something I rely on for income. If I get even 1 comment, it was worth it.

>>724534207 (OP)
Still growing.

I'm not in it for the money, I'm doing this to upload part of my consciousness to the internet.
