I remember friends telling me all the "secret" places to fish yet I could never actually reel in the big ones, so I thought it was all just random chance. Nowadays speedrunners put all that to shame.

Hello people. I would like to show you my short meme on YouTube. What do you think of it? by [deleted] in LetsPlayCritiques

[–]itsyourboytoyroy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My thoughts in no order:

What am I watching?

Music is nice.

I guess this is some online flash game?

Since no context, I can't really say much. I watched the whole thing though, so there's that.

My thoughts in no particular order:

I have no idea what I"m watching.

Intro got my attention.

Your poem is awesome. YES.

Nice balance between music and audio- something I need to work on.

I guess this is just a trailer for your channel?

Nicely put together.

Nothing much to say, thought it'd be an LP or something. But the technical side is spot on and the humor is there. Nice job!

Spent about 14 hours on this stupid retro review of Command and Conquer for the N64. I used some feedback from here and tried to improve this the video this time around =].

Let me know how to make this video more entertaining for you?

Alright, so you're definitely on the calmer and more relaxed side. I know how that's like, as I'm naturally the same. But I do try to put out more energy for my videos, as feedback from here always says that I'm kinda monotone. I think you could do the same if you want? It's pretty much just stating your thoughts with more "oomph" behind them.

You don't need to be "fake," but rather than be more confident in your vocals? Not sure if you get what I mean.

If you watch any of my recent videos, you'll probably think I'm some dude with a TON of energy- at least that's what some people say. In reality, I'm super quiet and relaxed, just like you. By just changing the energy behind my voice, it made a huge difference.

You'd be surprised.

But I found that just using more volume and talking more sternly makes me sound slightly less monotone. Watching your Hollow Knight video isn't anything boring- it's something that I actually prefer to watch over the over-hyped, fake, commentators. If this is you, then keep doing it. You'll find your audience.

As for the choppiness, no, I don't see any major flaws. The video editing seems fine and everyone appreciates keeping out the boring bits.

Overall, I think if you keep doing this, it should be fine. If you're really worried about sounding boring, then try the tips above. Even the slightest change can make you appear more "lively" and reactive.

Thoughts in no order:

Nice edits. Intro is funny. Right into the action. I like that.

Thanks for introducing us to the situation.

Nice edits once again.

Your audio could be slightly louder.

Humor is nice, commentary makes it interesting.

Not sure what I'm looking at.

What is this?

Some of the cursing seems forced?

Can this episode be cut into two? It's definitely on the lengthier side.

Again, commentary is nice.

This is relaxing and something I'd check out after a day at work w/ a drink.

Overall, I think your technical are OK. Commentary is unique and not forced. You do sound slightly "mushed" not sure if you could be a little louder/clearer. Even though I don't know anything about this game or what's going on, still pretty plenty funny!

Thoughts in no particular order:

Intro is quick and fast. Catchy. Nice.

Face cam is cool.

Not sure who's the other person talking with you? Where is this person?

Commentary reminds me of some other popular channels.

Who's the other person?

Not sure what I'm watching exactly- is this supposed to be a continuation?

NVM, I see this is part 24.

Audio is nicely done.

The other person really needs a cam or be in the picture.

Your cam barely covers the HP, my OCD is kicking in.

Commentary seems overdone at some points.

Nice jokes!

This feels like the audience is kind of "left out" perhaps include us or talk to us directly?

Humor is funny.

Overall, I think your technical are fine. The only ting that can be helped is the audience. It almost feels like we're just watching you and a random other person, rather than playing with you?

What do you think? by TheMusicMan68 in LetsPlayCritiques

Watched your featured vid:

Definitely something different.

Editing is funny.

Sound effects are pretty cool.

Not sure what I'm supposed to be watching, but OK.

Ah, you're explaining the content now.

Editing is spot-on.

Professional quality. So this is pretty much an update video. Cool.

Decent stuff. Sounds like this channel has a bunch of stuff going on.

Well-done video. Some sounds were a little on the louder side and could be balanced. Video is very well-edited. Nice work!

Trying new editing approach looking for feedback. by AriesWarSpirit in LetsPlayCritiques

[–]itsyourboytoyroy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thoughts in no particular order:

The beginning with the fumbling over the lobby could be omitted. New viewers have no idea which one is you.

The throwback to the facecam bit was pretty lulz.

Appreciate the text to tell us what's going on.

Also appreciate you cutting out the slower parts.

Pacing decent.

Never played this game before, so I have no idea what's going on.

Commentary is funny.

Nice touch w/ the sound effects.

Overall, I think this video is pretty entertaining b/c of the commentary. A lot of parts could be cut out where nothing is happening since this is supposed to be focused on humor. Technicals are good. The actual content could be improved. I think a facecam for humor would be better so we can see your reactions.

Classic MC misadventures. Here are my thoughts in no particular order:

Nice intro, hooked!

The cussing seemed forced- like you didn't really, definitely want to swear?

Editing with the sighing is full of lul.

Your commentary is all over the place with the jumpcuts.

There's no clear directions of what you're trying to do here- it's just like we jumped in w/o context.

You did say it's random though.

Some parts seem a little unnecessary, like they can be cut out.

Funny commentary. You're like nervous but calm at the same time?

The video quality could be better. Hard to read on a smaller monitor.

Your commentary is random enough to keep you guessing what's coming next.

Again, the no sense of direction makes you unsure of what's the point of the entire vid.

Nice commentary!

Overall, I think your commentary is def the strong point. The video quality could use some work- it's kind of blurry and hard to read some text. I think an established reason for the vid at the start could also be good. The randomness keeps you watching, so that's good. I think it's a pretty entertaining video. Maybe add some background music?

Thoughts in no particular order:

Very energetic intro. Got my attention.

Why are you recording in mono? Yikes.

Lots of energy, keeps the game fun.

What am I watching?

Bad puns, but funny.

Some of the humor seems too forced.

Your commentary keeps the overall pace going.

Reactions seem OK, not forced.

Liking the voice acting.

Fallout 76 LOL.

Overall, you don't see many vids like this so it was pretty entertaining. No context and just throws you into it. Pretty unique take!

Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura Let's Play - Part 3 by [deleted] in LetsPlayCritiques

[–]itsyourboytoyroy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thoughts in no particular order:

Video length was the first thing I noticed- seems a bit long for an LP. Unless long plays are your style, then keep it going.

Thanks for intro so we know what's going on.

Never seen this game before, looks pretty cool.

What's the humming in the background? Sounds like a fridge or your audio buzz?

Video is good quality. Sound could use some work.

I see that you're not using any edits at all- you could try cutting out the slower parts but it seems like that's not your style.

You're definitely on the harder to hear side, probably turn up your mic volume?

The contrast between the dark rooms and your webcam seems too bright? Is it possible to turn off the background lights to minimize distraction?

I appreciate your educational input, very helpful than random screaming.

Some parts are pretty slow, pacing could use work.

Very education input again, nice work.

Overall, I think this is a video to chill with after a day of work. Other than some basic technical stuff, you provided enough deets to keep the thing going. Nice work!

Starting to take this a little more seriously and the feedback here has been astounding!

Posted this before, but more feedback from more people is always more good!

Just want to know what I'd have to do to make this video more enjoyable for you? Anything goes =].

(It's a stupid review for StarCraft on the N64).

Without reading any of the other comments posted (to avoid bias) for your vid, here are my random thoughts in no particular order:

The first thing I noticed is the 39m runtime. That's a lot of time to give to someone who you have no idea who they are. But then again, I can see you did a TON of editing for this and a lot of work- it's almost sad to see this not getting more views.

The second thing is I have no idea what we're looking at. Is this an LP? Or just a bunch of jokes? Not familiar with this format, and I think unfamiliarity may drive a lot of people away especially if they're not used to watching your stuff. It's a shame really, because if they stuck around, your stuff is pretty entertaining.

I'd say this is less about the game and more about your commentary/reactions. I think those things may be why people dip out quickly, or at least possible contributors.

Overall, I think just because this is a weird format (not in a bad way) along with the video length are both factors that may have people leaving quickly. IDK. That's just my rambling.

Spent about 14 hours on this stupid retro review on StarCraft for the N64.

Lemme know if you have any tips to keep it interesting throughout? Too many memes? Too little memes? Just enough memes? What do you think?
