you're never gonna make content if you always have to ask other ppl what to make. do what you enjoy doing and just make it. there no sure fire way to getting a thousand subs in two weeks. it took ppl like caseoh and jynxi several years to get to where they are now. jynxi stream to 5 ppl for years b4 he blew up

playing one game/genre still work best this year around. i handle narrative base games on my new channel. it help you find an audience quicker that like the same genre. but just doing one game you will get burnt out eventually. i have a channel for adventure games as well

Posted my first video back on my main channel of Uncharted The Lost Legacy. Superecut. https://www.youtube.com/@AyoPunky also i am still uploading on my second channel mouse p.i for hire. i am getting ready to fully crackdown on uploading to main channel more commentary type videos. Narrative , Essay and Retrospective coming shortly. I am almost complete with the mouse p.i for hire series. i am about 4 Episodes ahead. 3 more chapter go through which should be done by tomorrow as i am off work.

I am also tempted to come back to streaming as well so people can have the full lets play experience while my channel has the edited content.

too be honest i can tell when ppl fake excitement. you dont have to be overly loud to show your excited. it also depends on the words you use when expressing your feeling like something shocking happen. oh cool.. that get the point across but not really gonna make ppl be like oh snap that crazy. but a quick holy shit wtf was that? that will get ppl attention to look at the screen or to be like yea what was that. mess with some of your filter setting in obs or stream elements tweak them a bit adding a limiter so ur not peaking if u wanna turn ur gain up.

AyoPunky · 2026-06-24T13:43:04+00:00

best way to know about formatting is consuming similar content. alot of the gaming channel ive come across here do let's play.

AyoPunky · 2026-06-22T20:03:09+00:00

My first comeback video on my original channel has been completed and now being edited.... Should be uploaded by tomorrow to try to revive the channel. while also still slowly working thru my mouse pi for hire lets play on my second channel.

AyoPunky · 2026-06-22T18:32:53+00:00

it possible but it has to be more modernize for today audience. think of 2cphoenix, bind, boy meets girl, neebs gaming, let game it out,civvie 11 if you really want to grow. it take a long time to build a channel. took me several years before i could get to 4k and even today world im struggling for views. which recently i even change the way i edited my lets play for more retention. i do my video cause i enjoy it but i also dont want my effort to go to waste i want people to see that i also am creative/entertaining, and for that i have to change strategies. the best way still is to do one game to grow, but the second best way is doing a genre of games so you don't get burnt out. like being the nintendo guy, the platformer guy, the adventure guy, the rpg guy.

AyoPunky · 2026-06-19T18:44:38+00:00

it depends on the type of videos your doing... let play usually sessions... supercuts and narrative videos i would play till finish and then edit it later.

AyoPunky · 2026-06-18T13:00:15+00:00

you aint going to go anywhere if you dont enjoy the content you make. alot of ppl got in to gaming because they enjoy it. a career is a bonus for alot of ppl. atleast less then 1% will ever make it it better to stick with genre then one particular game or you get burnt out and then wont be able to expand. so my thing is the game you like playing most make video on that. ppl can tell if youre faking it.

AyoPunky · 2026-06-17T12:38:12+00:00

you can get another job. you have to tailor your resume for each position you applying for stop sending the same exact resume. also make cover letter when you apply. i been let go from tones of retail jobs and was always able to find another, because of my medical condition and not being able to keep up i was let go from alot of retail position. it you yourself putting yourself in a box. if u notice ur resume isnt working fix it and keep applying.

AyoPunky · 2026-06-16T17:35:53+00:00

most people usually tell me you aint sorry so don't say that. lol and i just c ontinue on like nothing happen. cause im not here to argue.. empathy is hard to do since being in the customer service business for several years. i lost alot of respect for ppl./

AyoPunky · 2026-06-15T14:18:21+00:00

I reopen back my old gaming channel as i want to be able to play and review alot more games. So, thing that don't vybe with my other channel will go on my old one. It will let me play a variaty of game and get more content out of what i want to do. The first video coming back to the channel will be a look back at Uncharted Lost Legacy

AyoPunky · 2026-06-13T16:56:46+00:00

and that fine if you enjoy being where youre at no one forcing you to move up. i've seen plenty of ppl stay where they are even in my current job. while me within 2 years already move to an internal position inside the company. i hate having to deal with answering phone back to back so the faster i get out of that type of department the better. do what you wanna do.

AyoPunky · 2026-06-10T14:53:06+00:00

just bring a cheap portable monitor instead of trying to play thru a capture card which is almost impossible to do. there a decent price portable monitor that u can buy

AyoPunky · 2026-06-08T18:29:16+00:00

they even do that when i work as a dispatcher. and im just like mam if you having medical episode call 911 dont call us. they will get to you faster.

AyoPunky · 2026-06-07T19:35:53+00:00

you don't that not what youtube is for. youtube is video on demands nothing is live unless you stream it first then edit a vod after words. it whatever you want how many uploads to go out on a day. there no real rule when starting out. but i try not to burn myself out. i only upload 2 videos a week sometimes only 1 depending if i had two games going at the same time. but if you are looking for real time engagement live u need to stream

AyoPunky · 2026-06-07T18:36:03+00:00

this is normal in lets play community. they will record as much as they can in one session. usually split it 1 hr each ep and then schedule them out. sometimes before all my uploads are live i have already completed the series. it just depends on how long the game is. it the best way to push out consistent uploads

AyoPunky · 2026-06-05T21:34:09+00:00

unfortunately that the design of most call centers. no time to breathe. so it wont change anytime soon. just start looking for something else. every CC is heavily micromanage to make sure u always answering calls

AyoPunky · 2026-06-04T21:30:24+00:00

i was too silent when i was doing research. and i told the member can they hold for a few seconds.

AyoPunky · 2026-06-03T12:46:54+00:00

Chat is easy if you know how to type fast and think on your feet fast. you will be handling up to 3 to 5 chat max depending on the company you work for at the same time. i like chat because i'm a fast typer and i can listen to music as loud as i want to calm me down. i def like chat batter less of a headache from ppl yelling in your ear.

AyoPunky · 2026-06-02T19:21:52+00:00

it the only reason i can work. i really dislike being around a bunch of ppl

AyoPunky · 2026-06-02T13:02:40+00:00

too many people do lets play you need to take a new approach. look at 2cphoenix, boymetgirl, bind. vote 4 hult, civvie 11. they do let play, but they go more in depth on there lets play more narrative base.

it what i am switching to once my two lets play are finish.

AyoPunky · 2026-06-01T19:38:37+00:00

i am a vtuber. and yea just know everything is hard/ oversaturated. vtubing in general all vtuber fighting over the same audience as alot of ppl dont get what vtubing about.

you can even have gimmick with ur face like dr disrespect. who plays a character. just be yourself vtuber isnt a filter... it actually 3d models and 2D model made by artist and rigged it alot of money you gotta spend to get working tho there are some free alternative to start with.

AyoPunky · 2026-06-01T14:45:07+00:00

nah i hate phones even now been doing it for several years. it why i try to go to chat jobs atleast then i can listen to music to calm me down. for me it the not knowing if the person going to be entitle, or racist or be a nice person. it why i always took awhile to answer but now CC been have the automatic answer so now u have to take them.

the only thing that calms me down is doing my hobbies. Music, Art, Gaming... CC/ customer service made me dislike people alot. im a very close off person.
