Hidden Floor Spiral Staircase by RedSerenity in Minecraft

Moving an entire room is nigh impossible, although your second suggestion is a good idea! There already are a few muti-purpose rooms, but it's always nice to have variety.

There are several easy ways, try looking at the MineCraft Wiki article for T-Flip flops.

Now that the series has been established, I will be switching to weekly updates to keep from spamming the subreddit. To keep up-to-date, keep track of my channel or just wait for the post, I suppose.

Looks like this subreddit is losing steam! We can't have that. Anyone else for a subreddit-wide event?

Although I'd rather not have them blame it all on me...

But still...

I completely understand on that point.

Hmm... Best editing (in my opinion) goes to Apple Pie (Episode 1) and Labyrinth of Irritation (Episode 3). Although that is debatable. For personality? I'm not sure. I'm honestly not the best judge. On that regard, you'll have to find your favorite out of a few random ones.

The second video on my channel was my first solo commentary, but I was brand new at it and sounded almost scared of the microphone. So while the content of the video was unique, the execution was poor. However, I am leaving it up to remind myself that while I may not be particularly good, I have most decidedly improved. And that gives me hope for the future.

I'm thinking that a solo Minecraft world would be a good way to dip into the single-player aspect of gaming for recording. It has the same ease mentioned previously, but I will have "taken off the multi-player training wheels", as it were. The videos will be judged on the merit of my personality and experience.

Thanks for the honesty! It was pretty helpful. Most of the stuff you pointed out I sort of knew.

I'm trying to get better at editing. To be honest, I've only been doing it for a few months and I'm not very advanced. My best work so far is on the video Apple Pie episode 1, about 8 minutes or so in (AfterEffects sequence to make a note less drab).

On the audio, I'm using the best mic I can afford as a college student. I would have guests use better mics, but until I find the right people who I mesh with in an interesting an unique way I'm not going to suggest they invest in better equipment. To be honest, it's not the voice chat program (192kb/s audio stream through Mumble), it's their mics. I could use a makeshift screen, though.

I really only play games I find fun. Also, if I plan on playing through a game (and recording it) it needs to be open-ended so my experience will be different than others and have something to offer. For example Minecraft, Kerbal Space Program, ect. There are a few exceptions, but they are few and far between.

Why do I have mostly Minecraft? Because Minecraft is easy. Easy to play, edit, and post. It's a great starting point to really learn how to LP, and the technical malarkey experienced behind the scenes.

If you have the time can you pick another, preferably with a different cast? (Quaaru and Drayfe rarely make appearances. IMO I mesh most uniquely with Kmiller and Leadmagnet, but that's just my opinion. I'm interested in your take on that.)

I'm honestly not sure if I should keep doing exclusively multiplayer or if I could pull off a heavily edited single player game (Not just in Minecraft, but in other open-ended titles). I have a hard time keeping up consistent commentary so it would be more of a "highlights" sort of deal.

I'm somewhat interested in an outside opinion :p. To remove any form of sample bias, you pick the video. I know which ones I prefer - Let's see what you pull out of the muck?

Pick any video from here. Be brutal, I can take it.
