My first YouTube video: Fallout 3 Let's play

I just made a YT account, I had some difficulties uploading my video the first time, but I made some edits
Here it is:

How did I do?
Please don’t be too mean xD it’s my first one so any advice would be nice.

i’d say the fallout 3 intro is not a good lets play. It’s just not interesting.

I’m going to try to do the whole game, not just the intro in vault 101 part.
I love the game, and I know the hype for fallout 4 is pretty big.
I’m going to do some other games too, I’m just not sure what ones yet.

I subbed. :smile:

Can you record in 60FPS? If you can I would, and then render it in 720p60.

I would cut out as much video as possible that doesn’t actually contain gameplay. Your gameplay didn’t start until a whole minute in, by that time you will have lost your audiences attention and they will have moved on to something more entertaining. I know you were commentating, but you were commentating a blank screen. People are gonna get bored and leave. You have to come out of the gate strong and keep your momentum.

I’ll give you a sub though. We all gotta start somewhere.

I’ll try to record at 60fps from now on, I’m just worried that it won’t be constant and it will look bad. I had originally had the game from startup, to me pressing new game but the intro song was copyrighted…so I had to remove it.

Thank you for the advice!

If you have an Nvidia GPU you may be able to use shadowplay. It works AWESOME. I don’t have the highest end GPU but I can play in 120fps & record at 60fps at the same time. Here’s a video I uploaded on the 11th, it’s in 720p60 HD but I’m playing Minecraft so you’ll have to judge how well it would perform on other titles with your setup.

If you want to avoid copyright strikes (3 and you’re terminated) then make sure to use the youtube music search function to see if that particular song is allowed to be used in your video. Better yet, find music without copyright that can be used in monetized youtube videos, because you’re going to unlock that ability down the road anyways.

It was part of the game unfortunately, so I had to edit it out or record all over again.

I’ll check shadowplay out now.

Edit: I can’t use shadowplay :anguished: I currently use Dxtory

Do you take game video requests?

I’ve played Fallout 3 too many times that I just can’t watch this. I will watch when you’re on a different game though.

What game would you like to see?
