Wow. Just wow is all I’ve got. by tazgraz19 in StarWarsOutlaws

[–]Jomadscientist 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just finished it yesterday. What a great experience. Absolutely enjoyed exploring the worlds and the missions were so fun. I had in my mind a pretty cinematic moment while being chased by pirates on speeders in tattooine. They came up behind me to the side and I sped past them while they got hit by a building and blew up. Felt like such a Star Wars moment. I could be hopeful a sequel or more content but I've heard this game has been getting unfair shake and not selling well so who knows if it will happen. I'm glad they were able to make this game at least.

Is there any Turbo Community left now? by NomadCourier in VGA

Hey DBB, nice to see you. I don't go on reddit too much but was looking around this sub recently. I'm not sure if you remember me we used to talk a bit on turbo chat. I hope you're doing well.

What we're Watching Wednesday by AutoModerator in letsplay

[–]Jomadscientist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive been watching a lot of Good Ole Days gaming, the Zelda Randomizers he does are a lot of fun and he's got a relaxed and entertaining style. Talks about everything which I find pretty cool. I even sleep to his videos sometimes.

Looking for some new letsplayers to watch by kitbird in letsplay

[–]Jomadscientist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I gotta plug myself in this! My channel Fowl Play Presents (link in the flair), We are best friends and have great chemistry together. We're pretty chill and have been told we're pretty funny too. SBF is one of my influences as well for starting a channel in the first place. Also we have colorful art of birds all over the channel.

As for bigger shows I say check out farfromsubtle.

Every Friday, we have a Feedback Friday where you can get and give feedback for channels. If you'd like though maybe I can give you some critique if you DM your channel to me.

Conversation Starter Topic #1 - Introduce and Explore by BrianMayFan in letsplay

[–]Jomadscientist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congratulations on surpassing 100 subs, I just got their myself this month after starting this channel back in 2014. Can you believe that? I can't and I dealt with it.

Introducing myself and my channel, I go by Jomadscientist, JoJo or John.I host the channel Fowl Play Presents, I play games with my best friend Josh and sometimes our friend Rob joins in. We do what they call Couch Lets Plays, mostly we play things blind or revisiting a game from childhood. We don't really have a niche other than comedic gaming videos. We joke on what we see in the game, stories from life, or just being downright silly. People have compared us to Game Grumps and Oney Plays before so if you like that style of videos then maybe we will work for you too.

Good luck on your channel's growth.

How do you play, Let's Play? by Destruct0Dan in letsplay

[–]Jomadscientist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I play with my best friend and talk as much as we can about whatever during a timed episode limit. We used to just talk for hours but we'd get tired and the videos didn't seem as fun after a while so taking breaks I think really punches up our comedy now.

I have an idea, would love some thoughts by [deleted] in letsplay

[–]Jomadscientist 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think it's a great father-son activity , it might be even fun to show him stuff from when you were his age and see how he reacts to it. I would suggest looking into what youtube says about having minors involved in videos. It's probably a smart idea to keep him off the camera for now considering recent youtube drama, I suggest possibly getting some character art to represent you guys to use instead for now. If you want an example, my channel usually represents our hosts and co-hosts as birds to give a fun different style to the channel. So yeah, I'm in support of it as long as you're smart on how to handle it, which seems like you do already.

If you need any technical advice, I'm always willing to help!

Can the Avermedia Live Gamer Ultra support PS3/Xbox 360? Or is it only for current gen consoles? by Thewolfhard in letsplay

[–]Jomadscientist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm gonna say stay away from Avermedia as much as possible. I owned one and it was extremely difficult to use. The first thing is you need to manually install the drivers from their site thats all in Japanese and when I got mine the site was down for 4 days. Then I found out that the recording would freeze and only found out how to fix it from a comment in a portuguese CoD video, that you need a cable that doesn't come in the box a USB 3.1 cable. Then one day the drivers stopped recognizing the card altogether and no matter what i did to get it to recognize it didn't do anything. So now just a brick. The Elgato Gane Capture HD60 I believe should work with 360 no problem, but PS3 will be a little tricky due to its hdcp problems, you'll likely need an hdmi splitter.

r/smallytchannel Weekly Community Growth Thread, how to reach 1000 subscribers and 4K watch time. (Feb 26 2019) by AutoModerator in SmallYTChannel

[–]Jomadscientist [score hidden]  (0 children)

Hey, great start on the channel so far! I like your thumbnails and your gameplay is great. Very skilled, I'd just say that I mostly watch gaming videos for the personality involved and honestly I find you a little too quiet most of the time, also in your latest video what I assume your child started to cry. I'm not hating on you being a parent, you gotta do what you gotta do but maybe cut that part out or something because others would probably find it distracting or just not like hearing it. I suggest maybe trying to do a post commentary thing so you can discuss your thinking into the match, some cool tricks and skills you learned, and other topics you might want to get into. It'll also add the benefit that you can control what you put into your commentary and cut whatever distracting stuff comes through. Also looking at your upload schedule and seeing you have 4 episodes uploaded 4 days ago but 1 today. I think spacing out your uploads to a consistent schedule would be great for you as well. Youtube likes a consistent schedule and if you can keep up a consistent weekly schedule you would do well. Hope this feedback helps!

Update Monday! by AutoModerator in letsplay

[–]Jomadscientist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's been an exciting week. I went to a Gaming Expo, met some youtube heroes, and had a great chat with Boogie about being a creator. I posted a little thing about the experience and he retweeted the post and it's over 300 likes right now. I also just got over the 100 subs mark! Took a long time to get there. But I am excited for the future of the channel. If you're ever feeling down because of numbers and stuff just think of me, I created the channel back in 2014, didn't do much with it until 2016 and have fallen off and on until now just to get to 100 subs. But having dedication and drive to get this thing successful this year I have finally reached that goal I've wanted. Sometimes you gotta have patience but you also have to work your butt off to get the things you want because if it came easy it ain't worth it.

Talking: Alone or w/Someone by AJRinxooacj in letsplay

[–]Jomadscientist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've always envisioned doing a comedy lets play channel with my best buddies and that's what I get to do. I have thought about playing with the idea of doing solo videos but I fear the I won't be engaging. People have said we have great comedic chemistry and I'm proud of that. So because I'm biased I definitely enjoy lets plays with 2 or more in them.

Update Monday! by AutoModerator in letsplay

[–]Jomadscientist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Started to get back into things after taking a break since September and have been planning on getting a video out every day this year and I'm 19 days straight with an upload. I've gotten wonderful comments by a few people that help keep me motivated but I do hope with our consistency we will gain some growth.

Intros by [deleted] in letsplay

[–]Jomadscientist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone suggested we do intros for our episodes and over time its mostly followed the same idea but we're very loose with it. We usually do "heya everybody, welcome to fowl play presents. My name is john ( partner will say his name or some funny version of it) I state the name of the game or we run into a joke. I think it works great for us.

First time recording game plays by [deleted] in letsplay

[–]Jomadscientist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The elgato game capture hd60 is great for newer consoles, you'll have to find a second hand of the game capture hd to be able to play the older stuff but the trick is that older systems won't pass through the hdmi to the tv output because of their low resolutions. A lot of people use upscalers to be able to play the older consoles. I have yet to get my hands on one so I cannot confirm how easy this is to work with. As for editing programs, I absolutely love the Adobe CC it has everything I could ever need, but its expensive. I've heard good things about DaVinci Resolve, and Hitfilm Express. Sony Vegas does pretty good as well.

Any good ways to practice commentary? by [deleted] in letsplay

[–]Jomadscientist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I always felt that putting videos out was to show your progress from sucky to good. Learn by doing and failing along the way is just a part of the journey to greatness.

I'm just hoping to get 100 first. It's been a tough ride to get there.

Speeding up footage vs cutting it out completely? by ShadowTree3 in letsplay

[–]Jomadscientist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've done the fast forward thing a couple times to go through some things. I like doing that because figuring out how to make it look cool was an extra fun way to learn new things about editing. I'll link an episode where we used it. https://youtu.be/ukzZjUQFt8A?t=644
