Any tips for a newbie YTer?

Soulchild · Dec 20th 2012, 9:16pm

I'm sorry if I'm causing a lot of trouble by posting this thread, as it's possible that others have posted similar ones, but...I ask you guys to help me out a lil' bit. I've been on YT for a mighty long time, yet never created any videos, rather than singing ones, which were a lot of years ago and dunno what happened with my channel...anyways. I ask, if it's not a problem, that you guys give me a couple of tips for a newbie YTer, that's channel purpose is to create gameplay videos. I'm a total newbie at the software that's used to record the game itself, the facecam software, the...editing software, so please - help a brother out. Anyways, thanks in advance and I'm sorry once again.

Also, a sidenote, if you could suggest any good games that I could start off my channel with. My PC stats are:

Windows 7 Ultimate

Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU
E7300 @2.66GHz 2.66GHz

Installed memory (RAM): 4,00 GB (3,50 usable)

System type: 64-bit Operating System

Sincerely,
V.

I am new in the LP business as well, so I think it is very helpful to start with a game where there isn't too much action, in order to not be unable to cope with recording and playing the game at the same time. You will see it really is harder than one might think. So I think Indie Games are a good start like Limbo,Super Meat Boy stuff like that.

Others say Role-playing games are good because the game gives you lots of input already, so you definitely will have something to talk about....

People have made really valid points, but I think they missed one that is manditory; NEVER ADVERTISE ON POPULAR YT CHANNELS

It annoys everyone, and makes them not want to visit you. It also makes you look desprate. You also got to love what you're doing.

It's also a key ingredient for a hot cup of dislike.

True story , if partnering networks detect that you are such an idiot. They aren't going to partner you due to the fact that you lack maturity etc
