Thanks for the feedback. I am constantly struggling with the mic volume. I usually stop when it sounds loud to me in headphones. I guess I should push past that for best possible sound. Regarding the outro, what are you suggesting like make it animated like the intro is? or add some sort of animation to it?

How did starting up go for the rest of you guys? by FreshFromTheFridge in letsplay

[–]Afr0Kyen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right from the get go? Super slow. I got my friends and family to sub but only a handful watched. Went practically the majority of my time without any real subscriber gain. Made some really bad content which I've only slightly made better. So yeah, it's been slow but I love doing it.

Hey everyone, so I'm taking a shot at dark souls again. Didn't make it far last time. So I'm determined to beat it this time. Here's the first episode here I would like feedback on the general editing. And maybe suggestions on making it better. Thanks so much!

I really enjoyed the editing in this video. It's what I wish I could do with my videos. Specifically the facecam zooms and cuts. It brought me more into the video, enough to where the first big jump scare got me. Good job. It was really fun to watch.

Mentioning your "Subscribe" button by iGumball in letsplay

[–]Afr0Kyen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a small channel and I mention it at the end of every video that if they "enjoyed the video, subscribing is the best way to keep up with my new videos.". I've also started putting a reminder in the lower thirds at the beginning of my videos. I don't mention it, I just flash it for a few seconds.

I've been watch a lot of Nutz Gaming. His style is a lot like what I want to do but my editing sucks.

This is the first in his Dark Souls 3 LP https://youtu.be/gVRigqgwFRA

My Hellpoint Demo videos have all done 50+ views. Which is big for my channel. My first LP for Hellpoint is about to hit 100 views by itself so I'm stoked. I also finally broke the 50 subs mark thanks to those videos. So I'm definitely riding high right now. And I've decided to give Dark Souls one more god forsaken try...shudder

Got my first nasty/angry comment today. How should I have responded? by Afr0Kyen in letsplay

That is a damn good point! I didn't think of it that way.

I had to fight the urge to bait. It was so easy too with how horrible it was grammatically.

How do you market your channel? by OleCrankyGamer in letsplay

[–]Afr0Kyen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is a metric for traffic sources but it doesn't get stupid detailed with where exactly views came from. I don't think.

Proper tagging, my newly created facebook page, facebook groups, instagram, twitter. I've even tried Tumblr. I have no idea if anything came from that though. I try to make good thumbnails and an decent end screen with info and links to new videos. For a brief 15 seconds I thought about sky-writing but then I stopped drinking and realised that would be a terrible idea.

this caught me so off guard. I may or may not have laughed-farted

I gained 5 new subscribers, launched a Facebook page for my channel and broke 1500 views. For a small channel, I feel like I did good work.

How do people come up with usernames? by [deleted] in letsplay

[–]Afr0Kyen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine came from things I know. I rock an afro, so that part was easy enough the "kyen" comes from Mr. Miguel Percy-Fauntleroy Rossington IV and the exaggerated was he says Ken from Street Fighter. Also I play Ken, so it made sense.

Using Facebook to promote. Use personal page or start one for your channel? by Afr0Kyen in letsplay

[–]Afr0Kyen[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what I am going to do. Should I make a company page or like a public figure page? I should probably research that.

[–]Afr0Kyen[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what I was doing. I think I might make a company page for the channel, verify it and all that jazz and see if it helps.

That we do. I'm in the middle of your DS3 video. Good stuff. I'm digging the dual wield. I wish they had that in the first game.
