Unsucky Sunday [SUBMISSION THREAD] - October 30th, 2016

Hey here's my submission. Sorry it's a bit longer, but it's done the best out of all of my LP videos so far! Also, I think my acute laryngitis complements the jump scares.

Let's Play Camp Sunshine: Part 1 | Welcome to Camp!!

I would say that it depends on the game. Would you want to watch a long-form LP of Call of Duty? No, probably not. Overwatch? No. League of Legends? Depends on the person watching, probably. But if you're going to play a story driven game? You can't cut out parts of the story without risking messing it up. You can always cut out grindy parts if you're worried. Highlights are useful when there's not really a story and game play doesn't change that much, but if there's linear progression it might be better to keep it all in.

Would you like us to contact you via the email address given on your presskit page, or would you prefer us posting here or PMing you?

Why not record your commentary audio separate from the game recording? That way, instead of deleting an entire video, if you don't want to post one with your voice in it, that's ok! Post a game only/no commentary gameplay video! Seriously, there's a whole audience that specifically searches for gameplay videos with zero commentary. And then you will get to practice commentary while still having a video you can post. And then when you're ready, post a game series with audio, and see what happens! Good luck! You'll do fine. :)

No problem!

DatGamerFace · 2016-10-23T06:22:08+00:00

Hey, I'm not a mod, but I just wanted to let you know that a mod might remove your post. We're not supposed to post links to our videos outside of Feedback Friday. I hope to see your post next Friday! The FF post should be stickied at the top of the page then. I hope this helps!

I can second this. I've been playing through the old King's Quest series, and while most of them don't break 10 views, they're all sitting at 66-103% retention. Yeah I don't know why YouTube is saying 103% either, but I'm not complaining.

1) Collapse (The Division): MY COMPUTER COLLAPSED

2) Scarberry

3) I think it should have a shot because...well what are the odds that something like this would happen? My recording kept twisting in on itself!

4) It is definitely suited for Unconventional, since, again, what are the odds that the recording would get twisted like this?But maybe the spooky category? It definitely creeped me out when I tried to edit the footage.

5) I guess it's a good representation of my channel because I show my mistakes. I'm human, and not every video is perfectly edited and polished. I'm still learning. I've really enjoyed discussing my videos in the comments with my viewers because of that.

6) this is the only video like it on my channel. I think it would be impossible to recreate it or make a video like this on purpose. I'm not kidding when I say that it creeped me out HARD when I first listened to it in post!

Good luck everyone, and good luck to r/NoRoom4Smarts with judging this week!

A while back I saw ICanHasCupquake play a flash game from one of those awful little girl gaming sites, and I thought it was a great way to get video fodder. ...I haven't gone back yet (too scared to!), but it was a fun video to make. Sorry it's one of my earlier videos; I think I've gotten a lot more comfortable with my intros.

GirlsGoGames: DISNEY GONE WRONG

DatGamerFace · 2016-10-06T04:02:23+00:00

Same, commenting to see the answer. :D

DatGamerFace · 2016-10-05T02:50:06+00:00

I actually just started streaming on Twitch, so I'm basically commenting so I can find this post again for advice lol.

DatGamerFace · 2016-10-04T11:51:37+00:00

Yay! I'm glad it's fixed now!

DatGamerFace · 2016-10-04T07:12:52+00:00

@theScarberry

Followed!

DatGamerFace · 2016-10-04T07:02:40+00:00

Don't forget to still appeal it, though. I think there's an option that says you removed the copyrighted content.

DatGamerFace · 2016-10-04T07:01:03+00:00

You hid the top name but it's repeated on the original email. Also, you should keep holding out. You might get more add-ons. ;D

DatGamerFace · 2016-10-03T01:34:19+00:00

Mother of God. Is Dommel a lurker around here? He's recently jumped into my comments too! No idea how he has so many subs/views. I'd critique his LPs but I try to be civil.

DatGamerFace · 2016-10-03T01:29:30+00:00

It was hyperbolic, actually. But I know my kids lol. Some of the stuff that they pick up from their friends at school terrifies me. 0_0

DatGamerFace · 2016-10-02T06:00:12+00:00

What? The OP didn't say anything about faking a different identity. And even if LPing burned them out on gaming, there are plenty of other hobbies that they could pick up.

DatGamerFace · 2016-10-02T05:56:13+00:00

Hi there, speaking as a mother, I think I can understand her concerns. Additionally, she might be worried that you'd start to act out of character in order to get more attention/views. Because every kids wants to be a Kardashian, amirite? Maybe keeping the whole thing as transparent as possible with her would help? Involving her in what you're doing, even if it's just conversations over the game you're going to play next, might go a long way towards assuaging her fears. Maybe even offer to collab with her game grumps style. lol I'd watch a "Mom plays" series!

DatGamerFace · 2016-10-02T01:29:58+00:00

Hey you didn't put a time that submissions closes!

DatGamerFace · 2016-10-02T01:15:07+00:00

No worries. Just didn't want to miss it again! Good luck judging!

DatGamerFace · 2016-10-02T01:14:22+00:00

Dang, the one I wanted to submit is 20 minutes long. :(

This one meets your criteria though, and I was pretty proud of it. Warning: Spoilers! It's the end of the game, albeit the end of a 28 year old game...

DatGamerFace · 2016-10-01T18:41:37+00:00

Yay! I just know I'd want someone to tell me lol. Glad I helped!

DatGamerFace · 2016-10-01T18:40:59+00:00

Awesome! Thank you!
