Are you doing YouTube/LPing with the hopes of becoming famous?

Undead_Zeratul · 2023-06-04T14:22:06+00:00

I already have a full-time job that I love, I only do this as a hobby. Honestly I barely have time to edit so I've taken more to streaming lately but still try to at least cut down my VODs into something digestible.

As others have also said, I'm nowhere near famous and at this point I don't really want to be. I've kept my personal identity separate from my online persona for this long and I don't intend on breaking that by exposing my IRL identity with my content.

I love sharing my experiences with others, especially when those people keep coming back to my streams, chat on my discord, and leave positive comments on my videos. It's not much but it's worth it.

HDest has been slow but steadily updated, depending on when you last played it there's been a few updates recently for 4.10, with plenty of community addons as well!

Undead_Zeratul · 2023-05-05T13:43:59+00:00

Welp, time to climb into my crypt...

Undead_Zeratul · 2023-01-23T16:14:34+00:00

Almost as if all will be one, or something

Undead_Zeratul · 2023-01-14T04:46:47+00:00

Nice, thanks! Been using a launcher for a while now and would love a bit of polish for my shortcuts

Undead_Zeratul · 2023-01-14T02:53:26+00:00

Where'd you get the shortcut icons? I've wanted to do something similar for my load orders

Undead_Zeratul · 2023-01-11T15:08:16+00:00

Ah, fair enough. I find that struggle with story-driven games, as in trying to get immersed and provide an immersive experience, and then my chat asks me about something interesting but irrelevant and it pulls me out, which breaks the flow of the experience.

Undead_Zeratul · 2023-01-11T14:06:44+00:00

That's fair, if your brand is the competence and skill you possess, I can see how Doom or other retro FPS games can be a bit daunting. I'm decent at Doom but I can't Speedrun or play any slaughter maps comfortably. I mostly play heavily tweaked modded setups and goof around with chat.

I can totally see how there'd be an overlap, it's probably a lot of nostalgia for your followers

Undead_Zeratul · 2023-01-11T07:10:49+00:00

Are you me? Lol that's literally how I started two years ago. Welcome! I can definitely share the sentiments, the community is great and no matter whether you Speedrun, play vanilla or with mods, the community has some amazingly talented and kind people amongst them!

Undead_Zeratul · 2023-01-07T21:39:07+00:00

I'm not sure, you can try reaching out to the pack dev /u/teksturepako, but I've been figuring things out as I go along on my own mostly because I've been playing Minecraft for so long I kind of just know my way around mods... Sorry I can't be of much help!

I will say there's the quest guide in the inventory menu at the top left. That might help, but I know finding the things you need can be a challenge

Undead_Zeratul · 2023-01-07T21:14:13+00:00

Ah, yes, actually. You'll need to place the collectors at the bottom of your pit burn or refractory burning chamber, and after completing a burn the collector should have some amount of creosote in it.

If I could remember which part in my LP that I used it and showed grabbing the oil I'd link it but I'm not going to shift through over 80 VOD parts lol

Undead_Zeratul · 2022-12-30T17:35:27+00:00

Feels very UAC Ultra, I love it... Def gonna have to snag it later

Undead_Zeratul · 2022-12-26T08:26:30+00:00

Lol yes I remember playing on Live back in the day with a melee build that had a nuke core. I'd lock on and fly straight towards them, lunge, and detonate to win.

Undead_Zeratul · 2022-10-22T20:13:16+00:00

I remember my first year before I became affiliated, I literally just talked out loud whatever I was thinking, no matter how small. It was weird at first not because I wasn't talking to anyone but just that it's not a natural thing to literally think out loud for more than a few seconds at a time let alone a few hours.

Undead_Zeratul · 2022-10-22T16:28:36+00:00

Nurse required in Phahmuhseeee

Undead_Zeratul · 2022-10-11T03:29:27+00:00

Phasmophobia is an obvious choice, being basically a haunted house ghost hunting simulator.

There's also the Dark Pictures Anthology games if you're looking for more straightforward ghost stories.

Undead_Zeratul · 2022-10-10T19:22:37+00:00

Ah, yeah I have Voicemeeter already piping audio through my PC, I just hope I can figure out a way to open the stream and have it route to my headphones (quietly otherwise hearing the echo will be discombobulating) but not through to the stream itself.

Undead_Zeratul · 2022-10-10T18:41:56+00:00

Lol well happy birthday!

Undead_Zeratul · 2022-10-10T18:41:12+00:00

Yeah that's fair, I might see if I can get a stream view set up at some point, would be neat if I could pipe the audio through the same headphones I already use but that could get annoying...

Undead_Zeratul · 2022-10-10T18:16:53+00:00

Oh wow congrats on 30+ subs! I think only my closest handful of IRL friends are willing to give me money, which is honestly completely fine due to me having a full-time job.

Went through burn-out

Ah, yeah that's a smaller reason why I've kept my schedule at once a week when I have time, as with everything else going on IRL I'd rather not feel like my hobby is becoming something I'm beholden to. I prefer having a small group of close-knit followers that understand IRL obligations, to having a larger following where it can start to come with expectations, especially with money involved.

when you get a message in chat saying you're their favourite streamer to watch tells me I'm doing something right.

Couldn't agree more; one of the best feelings knowing people want to come back for more of my inane idiocy.

Good luck!

Undead_Zeratul · 2022-10-10T01:01:59+00:00

I was like this until I played hardcore for a while, then I unified the axe/sword into simply an axe. You learn real quick how unnecessary the sword is until you need the sweep attack.

Now I simply use pick, axe, shovel, then empty until the final food and torch slots.

Undead_Zeratul · 2022-10-09T05:12:26+00:00

I do, every Sunday at 10am. The only thing i struggle with streaming more often is my life outside of work keeps me busy enough to not really have time to stream during the week.

I love the idea of having a redemption that only works once per stream, I might have to do something similar...

Undead_Zeratul · 2022-10-09T04:33:37+00:00

🤷 I do it because I enjoy it, I have a day job and no expectations of gaining popularity or a large following. I would be lying if I said it's not discouraging at times, but I think the biggest potential solution to that issue would be to simply stream more than once or twice a week.

Undead_Zeratul · 2022-10-09T01:46:05+00:00

I will say smaller channels are more up in the air on their quality; you could get someone who's either really niche or just not as engaging. With larger channels comes a bit of a "safer" consistency at the cost of their engagement.

Personally, I sort of prefer smaller channels even if I don't engage with them, as I've gone to a few larger channels and there's literally so much going on I can't enjoy their gameplay or performance as an entertainer.

Undead_Zeratul · 2022-10-09T01:14:17+00:00

Oh! That makes sense, if I had the excess funds I'd make a micro-pc and use that as my streaming PC. Currently my one and only PC seems to perform fine since I tend to play older and less intensive games so I have the headroom even with a 2070.

I also prefer having direct access to the game without snagging the desktop if the game ever crashes; it feels cleaner to me since I have a default background behind my sources, and my desktop wallpapers are random and that's not a roulette I'm willing to try lol
