Awesome Videos! Very touching and creepy xD

Pros:
  • Very clear audio
  • Capturing Titles
  • Amazing at showing emotions; awesome at story telling
There's really not any with the cons but I have a couple of suggestions:
  • Just to make things fun for your viewers/subscribers, add in collaborations with other voice actors. Both of you guys can tell a story on both channels. You can find collaborators by direct messaging voice actors on YouTube or you can have a cast call and open tryouts. I've done that and it was really fun :)
  • I know that this will be super tricky but have an animator or something going on in the visual part of your video instead of just a picture. I have no idea where you get your pictures from but be careful, some pictures can be copywrighted. Make sure you go to a royalty free image website, if you already do, then that's more to add on the pros :).

Thanks so much for the review and suggestions! And I actually do look very carefully for pictures to which I have the rights to use and monetize which takes a ridiculously long time, but I'm just too paranoid not to. I'll definitely work on doing some more collabs in the new year. Again, thanks for the insights!

Very awesome video. I have enjoyed every minute of it!

Here are some pros and cons/suggestions I have noticed:

Pros:
  • Very funny and Well scripted
  • Video is not too long/not too short
  • Made very clear points; not just you rambling about one sub topic
Cons/Suggestions
  • I would recommend you to have a animation or picture of you as your channel icon. I feel like having video game characters are too generic. I know someone that can give you a channel icon for free (if not then for a very cheap price). Just Direct Message me on YouTube and I will see what I can do.
  • Social Media is very important. Yes, it's annoying to keep updating your status/tweets, but viewers would like to know, when the next video is coming/ your daily life. If you already have a twitter, make sure you mention it on your YouTube cover and your outro
  • Some people have commented on your video. Please, please, PLEASE! make sure you comment back. The worst feeling of being a viewer is when you are being ignored by the subscribee. And I know YouTube can be a pain sometimes by not letting you comment back but in your next video, make sure you include them and answer their questions if they have any.

So far so good! I have subbed to your channel. I hope to see more!

Thanks man, that means a ton to hear you say that, and I'm glad you enjoyed! And of course, I've always wanted to have one of those animation pictures of me, I just can't do it myself haha, so expect a DM soon! And I do have a Twitter, so I will definitely work to promote that a bit more as well, and I may start an Instagram as well for my channel! Thanks again for the review, this was some good solid advice and it made me feel a lot better about my video!

I wouldn't mind one!, but I would like to mention I few things I know you eill notice.
1: I know my banner and logo do not match, I will work on my banner soon enough.
2: I know my channel trailer's audio is a bit bad, I have a new mic so the next channel trailer will sound better when I make it.
3: I know my videos are long, but I like them long and noone who watches my videos has requested otherwise, in fact, one person has said they liked longer videos. (The 3:23:51 length video has it's own reasons for existing.
4: Only my most recent like 3 videos have the new mic, earlier ones don't.

Hey there,
before I get started, I would like to make a quick reply
1. Honestly, I know a lot of people who do not have matching logos and banners. Unless if you have a rocking banner and a logo that can explain who you are then that's all that matters :)
2. That's awesome! and I totally understand
3. If your viewers like that then I can't say anything but continue to do that :)
4. That's fine, I will check out your three videos then

Okay so after I have checked out your channel and here is my pro's and cons (more like suggestions)

Pros:
  • Really awesome intro! You have to show me how you made that!
  • Awesome thumbnails, I would click on your video if I ever saw it on YouTube search.
  • Content is in HD
Suggestions
  • I understand that you said you like your videos long, however I have noticed some that some clips are unnecessary (For example: Loading screens and main menu).When starting your video, start when you are actually in gameplay so you don't have to go through the wait.
  • You would seem perfect for live streaming. You have enough subs to have an audience so I don't see why you shouldn't. and I would for sure be one of them :D
That's all I really have, everything looks great! I subbed :).

I wouldn't mind a review :)
Want to get as much feedback on my channel as I can so that I can start making necessary changes to keep progressing and improving :)
Click to expand...

Here are a couple of Pros I have found and suggestions :)

Pros:
  • You play two currently popular games
  • The editing is well put out
  • I really do like how there's sub titles
Suggestions:
  • Your thumbnails needs a bit of an improvement. Add some effects to it (blur, glow, etc) you can find free font downloads at DaFont(dot)com
  • Show more expression. After a while, the video gets kind of boring. Be louder, but not obnoxiously loud.
  • Play more games. I always think it's best to play more than 4 games at a time. It gives you more of an option on what you want to play which mean you will enjoy YouTubing a lot more.
  • Invest in a better microphone. There are some pretty cheap headsets out there (Microsoft Lifechat lx-3000). I don't know you budget but that bad boy costs around $15-$30 depending where you buy it/where it's from
That's pretty much all I can think of. You guys are doing great. The more you are making videos the more you will improve, I am sure of it :)

A review would be cool!

Here are some Pros and suggestions:

Pros:
  • intro, banner, and icon are pretty cool
  • I do like how you advertise your social media; very important
  • I do like how you dedicate a video about you saying thanks to your subs
Suggestions
  • You may not do this often but try not to skip cut scenes, even though you may not care about them, others may (depending on your audience).
  • Try to edit all the loading screens out of your videos. Those could be annoying to watch unless if you say something funny or informative.
  • When you make a new trailer, show some clips and footage of you playing games
Overall your videos are pretty neat. Nice quality and enjoyable to watch.[DOUBLEPOST=1452233632,1452232442][/DOUBLEPOST]

I would like the feedback. Thanks!
Click to expand...

Pros:
  • High Quality Content
  • Pretty interesting ideas with your friends (Would you Rather)
  • It's awesome that you reply back to other's comments, even how weird they are xD
Suggestions:
  • Your trailer has music that is copyrighted. To avoid any trouble, change it to a royalty free song. Same goes with your other music (If they are copyrighted). Even though you state that the music for your intro is not yours, unless if you have permission from the owner, I wouldn't risk it.
  • If there is a point where you are missing something in your video like commentary, just don't upload it. If you have to, tell people that there won't be a video today because___ on social media; that's why they follow you, to get updates from you. It just looks unprofessional.
  • After your intro, there's a little cut off when you are giving an introduction. If you have to, wait 2 or three seconds, then start giving your intro.

Okay so before I get started review. I just want to say that I have check out three videos of yours: "7 things star wars 7 didnt explain", "This is how scammers attack you on Facebook", and "Some Big Problems with Batman vs Superman..."

Pros:
  • Your videos are very informative; especially the Facebook Scam one
  • Clear audio
  • Your videos go up to 720p so that's good
  • Adding clips and footage to back up your statement is a plus!
Cons that can be easily fixed:
  • The titles of your videos are grammatically incorrect. Since it's a title, everything but conjunctions should be capitalized. This is very important because it looks a lot more professional
  • Your thumbnails may need some work. Use a more exciting font and add some effects to the background. I made my thumbnails sorta similar to each other so people won't take my thumbnail and claim it as theirs. I would recommend you to always put your name on your thumbnails so no one can steal yours.
  • Tone of voice: Be more exciting/ aggressive! Show what you mean when you are angry about Lex Luthor looking like a *****. Showing excitement gives a positive attitude to your viewers. If you are nervous or scared, just remember that (unless if you are live streaming) no one can see you record. We will be able to see your video until you click that publish button.

Thanks heaps man.
That Facebook scam video is my newest one. I really tried to put more energy into the delivery on that one while keeping a sarcastic tone.

Starting to feel more comfortable speaking to the camera now that I have done it a hand full of times. I will keep working on it, and the grammar of my titles.
