Live Commentary vs Post Commentary

Hello, In my opinion, If you do Live Commentary talk about the Game itself, If you do post Commentary talk about things other than the Game. :)
 
If you can act even a bit, there is literally no reason to do live commentary, it's too easy to mess up.

Do post commentary and act as if it's live, practice a little bit and no one will know the difference and you won't have to put up with mistakes and repeating yourself.
 
As a viewer I prefer post commentary. If you do live commentary and screw up, then don't apologize for it and just move on. I find some people interrupt their flow when they hiccup in live.
 
Prefer live commentary myself, it seems more natural than comment over your own content afterwards.

I actually uploaded my first gaming video today and it was a post commentary. Purely because my mic is crap and it picks up my fans noise off my xbox when I try a live commentary :(
Are you using a headset?

I think you'll be surprised how many people claim to be doing live, but actually aren't. Especially the more successful commentators.
