Okay! I watched the
Folder Quest: I am a monster video. Here is a bulleted but short list.
- It takes over 20 seconds from the time you start talking to the time you start playing the video. Way too long. I know this doesn't have to do with your entertainment value but it's still very important.
- You are not the most entertaining person, but you're not the least entertaining person either, and you can get more entertaining as you get more comfortable with speaking to your audience while on camera. But there is an upside....
- You are very likeable! This is something you really cannot teach....some people just have something about them that makes them likeable to their audience, and in my opinion you have it. A little more confidence and a little more eye contact with your audience (camera) and it will only increase the likeability factor. That stuff will come with experience though as I'm sure you're better now than you were when you started. By the way, using the video inlay of your face seems like a recent addition...it helps a lot. I didn't realize how much until I watched your video (I'm not a big gameplay watcher). It adds an added dimension to gameplays.
I say give it at the very least another couple months with the gameplay cam overlay and see how you do. Try to get into the game a little more quickly too. People don't want to hear you describe the game you're about to play, they'd rather you describe it briefly as you're starting it. Whether or not you end up continuing your gaming channel, I do think you look very comfortable in front of a camera, so if the gaming thing doesn't gain more traction, there are a ton of other things you can do for a YT channel.

and yes facecam just became a recent thing so im still working on it
