Can I do gaming walkthroughs without commentaries

[Johhny Vegas]

I was wondering if i could do gaming playthroughs without commentaries. I am partnered with the machinima network could it be allowed i think they got the rights to most games.

I think that commentaries really help a youtuber connect with the audience and i think the viewers prefer a commentator so i would strongly recommend commentating

I think that's something you should ask the network or a staff member there and see what they say. but personally it would be more entertaining if you do a commentary while playing the game, that's what i do check out my channel

from reading copyright stuff from youtube i think commentary is needed so it's not considered copyright material

Absolutely not. You will most likely get a copyright strike.

PS: It's much more fun to watch with commentary.

Found this in the Google monetization and copyright policies.

Videos simply showing a user playing a video game or the use of software for extended periods of time may not be accepted

If you do not do commentary you will NOT get a copyright strike. Machinima has the rights to ALL video games.
And to answer your question, I've seen videos on Machinima Realm with no commentary on it. They just have background music (building stuff in Minecraft of course).

I like some walkthroughs without commentary for achievement hunting, or story related games. For example I would watch a perfect run of Heavy rain without commentary. It feels like I am watching a movie
