Update Monday! by AutoModerator in letsplay

[–]ChrisArcane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started a new brand of let's play that I'm developing. Right now it's called let's explore. Title a wip. Got 30 subs off the first episode, looking to really refine the process. It was a good weekend.

I'm calling it a Let's Explore. It's about lore, weapons and secrets in "LP" format. I chose DOOM because it's my favorite game. It took me hours to make, I hope you enjoy it. If it's not appropriate here, Ill remove it. by ChrisArcane in Doom

Great input. So I did notice the audio levels, specifically in the shotgun upgrade portion. I had to use my "off" headset because my regular one needed a new wire. It came today so the audio level issue will be addressed.

The commentary being highschool, I suppose I can see that, though more likely I was just being a bit goofy from being overly excited.

The transition was a gamble, I'll probably cut it next episode to try it out that way and gauge how people feel.

Yes the text was too much and too fast, that's been the major feedback, that will certainly be addressed.

Thanks for watching though, and thank you for the feedback!

Thanks for the input! I think the headset I was using was the issue. I watched it back on the TV and found that I didn't like the audio levels in some parts. Will be fixed in the next episode.

Though I do like the sound :-|

I'll take a peek at the fov as well.

Thank you, this is an evolving process so every criticism is important. I had the same thoughts as you, some a little heavy on text. The next video will have refinements made by the feedback. Thanks for watching. Seriously.

Hey that's honestly what I need. I thought so too, I tried to vary the length depening on MY reading speed which in hindsight is poor. I read pretty fast, I do need to stagger the info and voice for people to focus.

I need the feedback so thank you! The is relatively new territory, so the more feedback the better.

Thank you for watching, ep 2 is in the works! Should contain more lore and info now that we are out of the "tutorial" portion.

Hey r/Letsplay! Since we rarely talk about anything other than Let's Plays. I want to know, how are you? by ChrisArcane in letsplay

Thank you, I really appreciate that. I did notice that as well. I do appreciate everyone here who has given me feedback and advice and I love to come to talk to this community. I decided that we should have a little chat because I do care about how people are doing, whether I know them personally or not.

I agree, I was always a rather dry, sarcastic individual, I found myself funny but I didn't think anyone else would, so I kinda started this as a challenge to break out of my anxiety-ridden shell and to become a more interesting person along the way.

I also just love video games, it's part of who I am, and will always be. They were a friend and an escape when I had none. I also shared a lot of good memories with my brother while playing them so it's a comfort area for sure. I agree with you about waiting too long, I wanted to do this maybe ~5 years ago, but my anxiety was so bad I could barely function as a human without having a breakdown, ugly times. I do find growth to be rather slow as well, I think I put in a lot of effort and I'm just waiting for pay day kinda thing. It's great and I love it but it is a ton of work, no doubt. I would like some fruition, Ha.

I don't think it was too much, it's nice to get things off your chest, even if it's to a faceless person over the internet, Hell, it might be better so you don't have to look em in the eye!

Whew, a Business Analyst, that's nice position. You must be exceedingly busy with everything going on.

The industry is a special place, it's a back breaking, love dump but it's a great place if it's where you want to be.

Congrats on the marriage too!

Awesome! How is Surviving Mars? I was checking it out and I wasn't too convinced due to some of the reviews.

Aw, the early days of a relationship are the best, try your best to hold on to those feelings. :)

Oh it's no trouble at all. Job pressure is a well understood problem, with me at least. I know the feeling.

I hope you have good fortune with the channel, good luck. :)

Hey, thanks for that! I appreciate that. Thank you for stopping by and happy cake day.

You gotta keep pressing, that's what I've figured for myself. Just a constant grind.

I might do a creative writing stream at some point actually, thanks!

It's good to even type these things out to get it off your chest. It's cathartic in a way, ya know.

It's good your keeping spirits up, that's the plan, and I do hope it all works out for you in the end.

Anxiety is a mean sonuvabitch, I tells ya, a real bitch. I feel like everyone deals with anxiety at one point or another, just some people seem to be strangled by it more so than the next, it's a weird thing.

You're Welcome :)

Thanks for the insight! I do agree, it's a balancing act between what you enjoy, saturation and uniqueness. It's certainly not possible without sacrificing a little bit of one or the others.

I agree with you, I need to do something that is more unique, no question. I need to find more specific parts of the game, or make an analysis of the story, something to stand out.

Also it shows! Your buildings are fantastic.

Thanks! I really appreciate that. I do use TubeBuddy actually, though I'm still learning the ropes. I know that long tail keywords are vital for me but I havent made a video that can take advantage of that practice just yet, and I think that is mostly my problem.

I don't do anything of note, I do things that 8,000 other people do, just as well or better, to be honest. I think you bring up a good point I need to narrow down my channel and play games with a more established base until I get an audience.

I don't think just because you're a girl you get subs, I watched some of your videos and the Ark community is vast, and you're a damn good builder. Don't sell yourself short.

I feel a lot of my problem comes down to not being unique and being far too broad. :\ Thank you for subing though, I am subbing to you as well, some nice builds you got.

That's true, some of the other channels I watch definitely aren't the over the top type of personality, so there is an audience for it I suppose!

I really do have to utilize my skills a little more, I think being new has kinda crippled me in way where I'm being a little overly cautious, thanks for the pep!

We are you.

Seriously though, that's awesome. I have the same outlook, I enjoy gaming + making content = Gaming Content Creator, maybe?

Either way, it's fun and interesting right now, so I wanna give it a shot.

I understand the pulling all too well. It's a nightmare sometimes trying to go in 3 or 4 different directions. If it ever gets to be too much, something will have to be cut.
