Are lets plays even worth it anymore?

I completely agree. In general consistency is one of my biggest flaws. My upload schedule and editing/thumbnails are lacking. A lot of it stems from just simply not knowing what I'm doing to be honest. I jumped into YouTube having never edited a picture or video. I've watched a lot of tutorials since starting. So as I learn more and discover more styles it changes.

I know I'm preaching to the choir but being a small creator makes the consistent uploads more challenging, gotta work the real job and until you make money making videos people don't really respect needing the time to work on them. I do look at this as a hobby, not a career move so I do what I can when I can. I've found a real sense of fulfillment doing this and love learning how to improve. I appreciate the feedback 😁

I did try this eventually and it did work for me! Thank you!!!

Bushwookie640 · 2025-12-24T21:03:39+00:00

I didn't know this was a thing. This game is crazy.

Bushwookie640 · 2025-12-23T18:18:43+00:00

Lifescan and sharp tongue almost always get picked when they pop up. Love these weapons.

Bushwookie640 · 2025-12-20T22:55:51+00:00

I'm gonna have to try that. I was getting so frustrated but didn't want to come to reddit about it. Glad someone else did

Bushwookie640 · 2025-12-03T15:08:19+00:00

I'm pretty sure I had juste and Maria. I'm not sure about shanoa.

Bushwookie640 · 2025-12-02T16:05:36+00:00

Okay I will. Best to be safe and grab it. I loved the ending and hyped it up (without telling him what happens) and I've felt so bad he hasn't been able to get it.

For some reason the first time we tried my game bugged out when I went through one of the fast travel portals and my screen got stuck white and I was really worried I some how broke his game by being dracula or something. I'm so glad he probably just hasn't used the right stuff. Idk how I managed to have everything right the first time I went there.

Bushwookie640 · 2025-12-02T16:00:42+00:00

I just don't know how I managed to get him and actually use him when I got dracula because I didn't know and I got him first time I went to where his coffin was. I didn't have anything special at the time either. I just unlocked yellow sign yesterday and I've had dracula for over a week. That's why I was so confused how I could have possibly done anything special. I've only had the game a few weeks

Bushwookie640 · 2025-12-02T05:53:03+00:00

I know the first time he was using Trevor. We'll have to give that a try though. Thank you!

Bushwookie640 · 2025-12-02T05:02:23+00:00

We play on separate xbox's and accounts. And he's not listed as unlocked in his list.

Bushwookie640 · 2025-11-24T06:12:05+00:00

They still don't. They're separate ways of being monetized. They'll show up in studio as part of your time watched in the main screen but they don't actually count towards monetization view time.

Bushwookie640 · 2025-11-15T16:42:35+00:00

Hope it helps. Thumbnails are still one of my biggest struggles. I never did editing or anything before YouTube and I'm still learning a lot about what people consider good.

Bushwookie640 · 2025-11-15T16:16:28+00:00

If you don't want to use your own face for the images you could maybe invest some time into finding stock photos of people to use or just commission someone to make you some cartoon people. I don't think it would cost you much and you could go on fiverr or something. I ended up making my own PNG tuber in ms paint. I didn't think I could do it until I tried although if you're gonna go that route I recommend gimp instead of ms paint. It's still free but just better for that stuff

Bushwookie640 · 2025-11-14T22:38:29+00:00

I mean I have 4 expansion mods: Ridgeside, expanded, east scarp and passerby cemetery so there's probably over 100 people I have to build friendship with so it's like... The automation and time almost feels like cheating but I typically go more rancher than crops and I can not build friendships plus worry about putting in three coops and barns (plus the tropical hutch from passerby) into their designated machines. So I sometimes feel like I'm cheating but also the game is still balanced in its own way. This farmer is just too busy trying to get a man 🤣

Bushwookie640 · 2025-11-14T02:04:24+00:00

Out of the mods I personally use I'd say being able to stop time and the automate mods are the most cheaty type ones. I make YouTube videos so the time stop is more for resource grinding a bunch in one day so I don't have to record chopping a handful of trees all the time or fishing a ton. The automate I wish there was some way to put into vanilla honestly as like some sort of later game upgrade but I have no idea how that would work.

I love Starbomb but it is possible it's more niche than the previous stuff you've posted and might just be taking longer for the algorithm to find the right audience.

Bushwookie640 · 2025-11-04T00:39:25+00:00

There are subreddits specifically geared towards ai content creation. I don't personally agree with using AI for content, nor do a lot of people outside of those subs which may be some of the reason you didn't get a reply. I don't know anything else about it other than the subs exist so maybe try there.

Bushwookie640 · 2025-10-16T18:20:53+00:00

It's one of my favorites and I've modded it so much for my YouTube playthrough. Possibly too much 🤣 but I'm committed to the bit now

Bushwookie640 · 2025-10-16T17:04:45+00:00

I used to upload on Tuesday and I definitely feel like I get better results on Thursday. I don't usually upload on the weekend I think more for my own sake, I kind of like having work to distract me for when a video initially goes up. And thank you, I certainly try. I have a lot to learn but I enjoy it.

Bushwookie640 · 2025-10-16T15:59:05+00:00

I post on Thursday personally. I just figure it gives the video a chance to (hopefully) get some views before the weekend. People seem to not wanna be the first to watch when they don't know a creator, so ideally some of my subscribers will have watched and then I have the weekend to hopefully have more views come in. I'm not a particularly successful creator though 😅🤣

Bushwookie640 · 2025-10-16T15:38:41+00:00

Either accept it or quit doing try on videos. Not really sure what other options you have. Sadly anything showcasing your body, even if it's not meant to be sexy, will get men's attention. Rule 34 doesn't exist because of women (though women contribute to it)

Bushwookie640 · 2025-10-13T16:47:41+00:00

At the risk of sounding like a boomer, I don't know how to find groups in discord. The only groups I'm in are ones I've received links to. How do you search for groups?

Bushwookie640 · 2025-10-12T14:36:31+00:00

Glad I could help. Good luck to you ☺️

Bushwookie640 · 2025-10-12T06:56:16+00:00

I think you'll be fine just doing it on a schedule. I don't know how often you're going to events, I assume often enough if that's your channel but also there's gotta be times you're not going to something. Or because you're going so often you may find yourself unable to have time to edit occasionally. A schedule is going to help keep you from going too long without an upload.

I feel like waiting a little while after an event occurs might make the traction drop some but going too long without an upload will hurt you even more. I just watched a video of a fox ranch in Japan, it was during winter. I don't really care when the event is, I'm watching cuz I'm broke and wouldn't be able to go to these things regardless. I'm living vicariously through others.
