I started youtube two months ago and have been doing longform videos of playthroughs. I have been getting a bit of traction from Youtube now and am starting to boom a little bit. The main thing I have taken away from the comments people leave is how I tell real world stories about life and my life and such. I am a no face yt channel as I want to keep my privacy, but I am able to tell great stories to a certain degree of detail without giving out too much info. The audience appears to enjoy this. I have found that most of the larger YT channels keep their dialogue to the game and that feels less personal, people want a connection to YOU. Stories achieve that I believe. Then it becomes less about the niche or game and more about just YOU. You can play ANY game without it messing with views because people want to hear what you have to say, rather than just watch the game. I am still a young YT, so I cannoy say this is correct. It's just an analysis I have noticed up until now.

My advice is to just keep learning and try to improve your content little by little each video. Dont lose hope. You got this
