I Love YTtalk
Now this isn't just for my video reviews, but countless other reviews I've seen given to others as well. A big thing everyone says is "There are silent parts" like really? And the silence would be about 6-8 seconds. You expect someone to talk non-stop about rubbish the entire 20 minute of a walkthrough?

I understand if it's a compilation of sorts OR a short game that is 3-9 minutes long there should be very little silent parts as most editing cuts should take out those silent parts. A Walkthrough Gameplay of long plotted games like Uncharted 4, Tomb Raider, etc games of those nature tend to have very little cut scenes as most of the game follows a plot/story and or puzzles, unless the puzzles take too long to figure out.

People who say "silent parts" in my opinion either have no idea what they are talking about or are usually people who been on YouTube for 6-7 months with 30 subs ( no offense to anyone ) but I just mean their view of how a video should be are skewed. PewDiePie, JacksepticEye, Markiplier almost everyone big who does a playthrough of long plot games as mentioned about have their 6-8 seconds of silence as well.

Then because of those "too silent" reviews that people give to everyone else, I've recently started to see videos where they babble too much, making the video almost incoherent because I can't understand what they are saying at all, it's all just random words thrown together. I feel like those reviews are either by people who really don't know what they are saying or by people who just copy/paste their reviews and it's generic for everybody.
 
You got to cut out the silent parts unless they are part of the video (like a car review, I don't talk... but the car does... so there is always something going on. Silent parts that are noticeable are bad!).

You got to make the FLOW!

....You know a game is the entire part of the video right, it's not like a car review. I'm well-aware of the how to do cuts in certain videos if it calls for it... >_>
 
Then you got to look at others in your genre. Like DashieXP. He never shuts up. Silence = bad.

So silence = bad, so pewdiepie silence in gameplays = bad, along with countless other million youtube subers? Not sure why someone who does car videos is telling me how a Let's play should work. It's like me telling you how a car video should work. Pretty stupid.

One other thing, DashieXP doesn't do long plot playthroughs of ANY game. Please stop typing down useless comments with your inability to actually read my thread.
 
Hmm...I think it depends. ^^

I like a bit of silence between thoughts. It's like the end of a sentence and the start of a new sentence. People don't babble on through them like a run-on sentence. They pause for a moment and then continue. ^_^

However, people also pause as they try to think of a word or how to phrase something. Unless the viewers are used to watching "real-like" conversation, YouTubers almost always cut out those "awkward pondering moments." Usually, if you can stick the word "ummmm" in it, then it's probably a silence that could get trimmed away.

I usually leave in my awkward silences lol. Too much editing is too much work. I don't jump-cut around when I normally talk to people, and I think extra pauses make YouTubers seem more real...But most of the big YouTubers usually cut out the silence. I guess because they cut out most of their silent moments, it makes us all think that we need to cut out the silent moments, too...

You want to cry some more? Please, go right ahead. If someone makes a comment that there is a dead spot in your video there is no action that keeps them engaged. If you refuse to read my comment for what it's worth it's fine by me. Have fun on your YouTube journey!
