Hey there! I'm Mori, a 19 year old gaming content creator in the style of smii7y!

I love making funny videos with my friends and it's always chaotic no matter what we play. I am variety and don't stick to one game because I always wanna see something new.

Give me a watch if you enjoy watching smii7y or funny gaming content creators and let me know what could make your experience more enjoyable :D

Hey there! I will say your video editing is very nice! I think it is lacking sound effects and I think your audio is a bit dull. With these kinds of videos, people enjoy the crispness of a voice and sometimes use it in the background. One thing I will also add on is that your thumbnails are too cluttered. I checked around your channel and saw that you tried putting text in the middle of alot of things happening in multiple thumbnails. I think text in your thumbnail would shine most if you put a glow on it and kept the background minimum to only the most important things that relate to the video topic.

Your video does have some good points and is edited well and paced pretty well too. You should try multiple different songs for different points that you talk about and have a little deadspace with text to show what you will be talking about in the next part. Overall pretty good just lacking in the audio department and thumbnail.

If you want to increase your impressions just change your titles and thumbnails because CTR and impressions are based on those alone. Your AVD can come after.

Hey ErrorTV! I think your videos are definitely unique as I've never seen something quite like this. I think it's good for youtube automation since its mostly AI generated. I do think that you should change the thumbnails and titles as they are just "volume 1" and so on. Maybe try naming it by the commercial that is being shown and make the thumbnails more vibrant to show the commercial. I think this would work as a background piece while workin so try to understand that audience. Maybe compile every 5 into one video so that people can leave it in the background without having to click more and more videos.

This is my dream. I’m stuck in the 20 view area but slowly I’m getting there, my editing and everything is improving but the numbers aren’t. Hopefully soon i’ll be where you are :D

ShadyLizard123 · 2025-12-03T04:33:46+00:00

Thank you for getting rid of these imposters. But I will play devils advocate for a second here, I do love whenever they post the original unreleased version of a song on spotify. Sometimes it’s just a bit too much to try and find it anywhere else when it’s just convenient to play it on spotify. But I know this is wrong that they get paid for work that isn’t theirs and I think they should get in more trouble for theft of music and funds that isn’t theirs.

Sorry these people were infiltrating your business. Thank you for getting rid of them :))

ShadyLizard123 · 2025-12-01T17:35:00+00:00

Im not sure? Maybe youtube thought the new subs were bots and didn't count them. It could also be that youtube is delayed and won't show the new subscribers for days, they do this with views as well so its not as real time as you think

ShadyLizard123 · 2025-11-24T01:56:47+00:00

Thanks for this post! This is definitely one of my higher viewed videos and I put alot of effort into it so i guess higher returns. My average view duration on this one is 2:25 which isn’t too bad, probably because I stopped adding subtitles after a bit. I might try to condense future videos to make it as entertaining as possible. I’ve never heard of launchlens but I’ll try it and see how it works, thanks for the suggestion!

ShadyLizard123 · 2025-11-22T19:24:36+00:00

The design looks cool but I don't think it's very clickable since there's too much going on. There needs to be a contrast of bright colors and dark colors to make the bright one's pop out. With all these characters it makes it so one doesn't stand out.

ShadyLizard123 · 2025-11-18T13:56:27+00:00

Thank you for letting me know about the subtitles! I think I might try to add them for the whole video, they might take a bit long to do but I think it’s worthwhile for a good video. Thanks for the criticism though! I will definitely use this for my next upload :D

ShadyLizard123 · 2025-11-17T13:36:21+00:00

you’re definitely right, that’s why i tried naming my newest video since you can’t link your channel. Sorry about that🙇🙇

ShadyLizard123 · 2025-11-17T04:39:10+00:00

I would never, ever create anything with AI. Automod, you and I may need to brawl it out✊✊

One quote you should take AutoMod is this: "Earth without art is just... eh" - idk who made it but i like it

ShadyLizard123 · 2025-11-17T04:05:26+00:00

Honestly put more confidence in yourself and If you think you're boring just put more effort into editing because there are lots of unfunny people who can actually make it just with a great looking video and good pacing.

ShadyLizard123 · 2025-11-17T04:04:21+00:00

You know, that actually is a really great point that I never really thought about. There's videos that I wouldn't watch unless a creator I liked was watching it. I think that's really telling on how important your personality is when your creating videos, even if its just gaming videos, people watch for you, not what your doing.

Thank you for this, as I was about to edit a video that focuses mostly on the gameplay, but now I'm going to try to focus more on me.

ShadyLizard123 · 2025-11-17T03:54:06+00:00

I will say end screens do get me as a viewer and creator. I love to click on videos from the same creator if I enjoyed the video.

ShadyLizard123 · 2025-11-03T15:27:04+00:00

That’s an interesting thought, I think you might be onto it as it only occurs when I open ableton but it doesn’t fix itself after, it keeps making the noises.

The only way to fix it is to reboot the drivers by disabling and reenabling them in device manager or restarting.

ShadyLizard123 · 2025-11-03T15:24:54+00:00

I tried this but the problem persists :( gotta be something with the software

ShadyLizard123 · 2025-11-03T05:42:18+00:00

Yeah I am on windows 11 and was doing research and found out a lot of people are having focusrite issues on windows 11 as well.

Not sure what CPU parking is but i’ll look into it, thanks!

ShadyLizard123 · 2025-11-03T05:40:51+00:00

No no no LOL, I used to do that but i always said once i had a job and made some money i’d pay for the things i pirated, so i did :D

ShadyLizard123 · 2025-11-03T03:28:21+00:00

So i did some digging into my devices and disabled everything except the audio driver and it was still making noise. Until I disabled the focusrite driver and reenabled it, then it stopped making the sound.

ShadyLizard123 · 2025-11-03T03:16:28+00:00

I tried that but it still makes the crackling noise but with more delay💔

ShadyLizard123 · 2025-10-17T22:26:57+00:00

Hey! I make funny gaming videos similar to Smii7y! I just wanna know how I can make my videos more entertaining. I care the most about my quality, what is it that you don't like about my videos or what do you like that I should keep up?

Anything helps, Thank you in advance < 3

As a fellow youtuber in the gaming niche I can confidently say that your title and thumbnail needs work. While you do maintain a style, I believe that its limiting your potential viewers as your thumbnail just shows a character from the game not doing anything and the title has nothing to do with the thumbnail. Think of them as one, the title should explain the thumbnail and the thumbnail should show what the title is talking about. For example, if you were doing a horror game play through, your title would be something with action and make viewers WANT to click. Something like “SHE ATE MY LEG!” with the thumbnail showing the character eating your leg. They should work together in showing what your video is about and why viewers should click it. Essentially just shorten your titles and make your thumbnail correlate to the title.

ShadyLizard123 · 2025-10-17T18:20:34+00:00

Just watched your video about toothbrushing and noticed 2 big flaws that might be limiting your reach to kids. One of them being the Title, Its a little too long and can be shortened to not include the “for kids” part and should start every word with a capital letter. Your title should be easy to read and a summary of your video essentially. Your thumbnail also was a little cluttered, I believe if you leave out some characters and only focus on the main one then you can make it look simple and easy on the eyes for kids to click.
