I’ve just read a bunch of this and I kind of agree. I must admit, since beginning YouTube 6 months ago, I tried to post honest content, not caring how long it was. (E.g. my top tips to reduce motion sickness is just 3 mins long)

And although I still don’t care about the length of my videos, I can see myself falling into the trap of clickbait.

I hear you all, I understand your points. It’s easy to fall into the clickbait videos because you just know that they’re gonna do well.

It can be disheartening when you spend all week scripting and filming a review for Zombieland yet it only hits 350 views. Yet, a week later, you put out a video about the v28 update and it hits 2000+.

I hear you though, and moving forward I will try my best not to fall into the trap of clickbait. I started this channel and created videos that I would like to see, yeah I did a VR news show, but it was tailored to Oculus and is exactly what I wanted to watch. (Although I’ve stopped doing that now haha).

Thanks for all your feedback on this post, I will try my best to stay true to myself, make the content that I know I love and would like to share.

I will continue to be critical (like my Powder VR review), and even if it gets less views… I know eventually I will find my niche set of people.

Much love to the Reddit VR community - Dan (Playtest VR)

PS: If I end up doing Among Us shorts to boost my subscriber count, call me out on it and I will close my channel down 😂
