That's actualy grea[DOUBLEPOST=1366902169,1366902133][/DOUBLEPOST]I meant great but it would take a lot of time and effort, but i never saw anyone doing it. I'm going to try it, and if everything works out, i'll give all most all the credit to you :)
 
Nope, I refuse to give up. For me, YouTube is a huge fricking Library. (Freaking 3DS, my screen looks 3d on my tv now. xD) I put my videos so I can have an archive and people who needs to watch how to get past this situation can watch my vids.

I'm not the best nor a good commentator. I'm just your average let's player who loves to make vids and want to share my vids to everyone. Some people may see me as a lazy a** person who's always in front of my PC. but hey, I'm used to it and I enjoy it.
 
You have to be unique and great at doing them! Humor is a must and energetic voice!. Monotoned casual lets plays are dooomed but being funny as hell and going to see the person not the game is what people are looking for. I use to watch red vs blue from rooster teeth because it was funny has hell not because of halo
 
Meh i dont know, as for me, i will keep doing it, because i love to do it xP Why just keep your gaming experience to yourself right? :D
Oh and about the kids starting doing it, it is really bad in my opinion XP Not because they are small...but because their english is better than mine XD
 
Thinking about what brings people to watch lets plays is one thing the might be an interesting starting point to analyse what interesting strategies for content could be used for instance:

Some years ago, in the time where the internet wasn't the powerful mighty entity is nowadays one of the few ways, one could get information about what were the best games and what made them worth buying were game related magazines and such.

As the internet grew some other media took a hit, since a lot of new competitors arose, in some extent there is a portion of the people that search for lets play videos are because they are willing to get the game but aren't sure its worth it so they look for those videos to see actual gameplay, since sometimes, trailers can be misleading.

That being said, there is also the portion of the public that look at lets players for the entertainment of the personality in the video, for instance myself, i love to watch lets plays while i am working, since i love games and well, cant play the game while i work so i watch and sometimes just hear the commentaries.

There a number os styles one could try to develop, and well probably develop its on, what i could say is, if you didn't found your unique way of developing your content, experiment like crazy, keep doing the content your subscribers enjoy but also invest a ton, i mean a ton of time in experimenting, reasearching etc, also learning skills in other areas might your ideas as well, for instance learning more about filmmaking, composition, animation, sound design, music well anything that could add value to your content, i mean you might have someone do those for you, but knowing more about them opens your mind for the possibilities and also improve your way of communicating others what you want.

PS: my grammar sucks lol
