wait until you are partnered with a network. You'll need a license for most games to monetise. Unless you're just playing minecraft. Then it's fine.

you can upload gameplays just make sure they're not monetized or youtube will probably come after you

I'm joining creator x soon but I have a question. If they are not necessarily a gaming network does that mean that don't have all the licenses for games. Because most my videos are game videos, I'm worried I can still get in copyright trouble even with a network. Is it safe to assume that all gaming videos with commentary when partnered with a network is safe from copyright problems?

I'm planning on starting up a PC gaming commentary channel which I think could have lot more "serious" copyright problems than just android/mobile games I currently do videos on and want to know that I won't get in any trouble with game companies though I know I can't hold networks liable for that sort of stuff...
Btw i'm probably just paranoid but if a company sues you, do they only sue you for the amount of money you made off a video or can they sue you for more?

I have no idea, this would be a good question to ask the CreatorX staff. Tweet them or PM them on this forum, they would be happy to answer you.

But I do know they have gaming channels partnered and they seem to have no problems.

I have uploaded many game walkthroughs without commentary before I was partnered. I have never received any strikes from Youtube. Some videos with copyrighted audio material will be marked as "matched third party content", that's all.
