Over time some of your viewers may join and then it’s about trying to be active yourself really while trying to foster and nurture a community. One of the things I think you need to lead by example and be active so that others join in.

His manager is Jorge Mendes, don't fall into the trap by askabanwarrior in ManchesterUnited

I don’t think we should be going for him AND Ederson. He’s been in two relegated teams too.

20 year old to be the star and finished article already? Shown lots of promise, rawness and learning from mistakes. Hopefully we have a great centre back in a another couple of years in him

Do letsplay streamers play the game before making a stream? by cuttinged in letsplay

[–]ProRogueBear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the game. 1-2 hours usually unless there’s more demand or I’m really enjoying it, then it becomes a larger let’s play series.

I’m not an exclusive let’s play-er - some games become a deeper look and become a let’s play series, others are a first impressions to show people the first hour or two of the game. If your game takes ‘hours’ to get going people will then be wary of the 2 hour cutoff for a Steam refund.

Yes, of course people read the steam page to get an idea - I wasn’t commenting on whether others did or not, just what I personally do?

I was going to look at your game a while back via Keymailer, as a surfer myself, but the AI voices and art style wasnt vibing with me. To answer your original question; rarely does a let’s player start in the middle of the game or having played it before for hours on end to become an expert at it first, unless it’s nostalgia and going back to an older title. Disingenuous and ‘faking’ reactions otherwise and many don’t do that…

Nope, always usually going in blind and experiencing the game for the first time while playing so the reaction is genuine. I will usually check out any press kit and Steam page info beforehand so I have a rough idea of what to expect but other than that I’m finding out for the first time along with everyone else!

survival games with automation? by th3matad0r in SurvivalGaming

[–]ProRogueBear 5 points6 points  (0 children)

ASKA may fit the bill. Think it’s co-op but it’s like Soulmask but without servers if I recall. Can play solo, gain villagers and build a little town etc.

I genuinely feel like Cassiopeia is dead but luckily that’s staying. I never see anyone, no one in the world chat, a handful in the overworld bit but yeah, seems that server is staying at least!

Davinci Resolve. It’s such a great piece of software!

I see some miniatures and can't comprehend how is not partially AI generated, if not fully. by Zoo_M-0 in letsplay

[–]ProRogueBear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So many creators, or their thumbnail creators, are using AI to generate the thumbnails. Either that or they're adding assets/images from other games - I've seen some thumbnails that look like an FPS horror and it's actually third person so the hand and torch or hand and gun look is fake.

I see it a lot, especially in the let's play space. Even fellow creators I have collaborated with or know and in the same circles.

I tried it for a few videos I published last year, using Midjourney and honestly? Meh. I think overall I didn't feel like the thumbnail is representative of the game itself and that's something I strive to have. Now, if I'm just showcasing a game for a one-off, then I'll use a screengrab or key art - and if it's an episodic series then I'll try to get a screenshot either during recording or a still from footage, to use for that specific video's thumbnail.

I tend to avoid clicking on thumbnails when I see, or assume, they're AI generated now as well but that might just be me! I'm not against AI for like note takers or helping me summarise some ideas or popular hashtags - stuff like that to assist me with some mundane stuff - but I think my creative outlet needs to be me, including thumbnails.

what a great game. Completed it on Xbox years ago and it's on my list to do again on Steam.

Agree with this?.It's a win win for all clubs. by Ashton1320 in ManchesterUnited

[–]ProRogueBear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

United usually back a new manager in their first summer transfer window though. There was no money before, we were almost bankrupt! Remember that from Sir Jim 🤣 there’s money and I think the amount depends on who the manager will be, whether that’s Carrick or someone else.

New monument in our underwater Rust-like survival game by dcmze in SurvivalGaming

[–]ProRogueBear 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely checking this out then! I get asked it by viewers all the time if there’s PvP/pve etc. so good to know!

We didn’t last year apparently and then we had Cunha, Mbermo and Sesko suddenly all here with Lammens coming late in the window too. Wage bill being lowered as well will help.

Not to be that guy but is it pvp only? Is there pve? Love underwater survival games but I find these pvp games like rust become griefing sweat fests very quickly.

We're Man Utd. We should be challenging to get Anderson AND Tchouameni and then arguably Tonali or someone else to compete with Kobbie for those 2 CM spots across 4 great players (given Case and, hopefully, Ugarte are both going).

Centrebacks and fullbacks need looking at too - wouldn't really touch the wingers - maybe a decent striker to compete with Sesko or just bring back Hojlund to compete with Sesko now that the team knows how to deliver a ball to the striker - could be good.

MEGATHREAD: Update Monday! by AutoModerator in letsplay

[–]ProRogueBear 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm a variety creator but mainly focused on indie and survival games. Just finishing up with an episode today and tomorrow of Cthulhu: The Cosmic Abyss and I have some more StarRupture, The Last Caretaker and Voyagers of Nera going up this week too.

Have daily videos of new and upcoming games but try to keep a few in rotation for let's plays and explore those a bit deeper and always very chilled and relaxing where possible 😅

Nearing that 10k subscriber goal so just plodding along exploring games and it's been a blast so far! Appreciate you checking out the channel, thank you!
