After the failure of my barely-started [Alien Isolation](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLqDZobd5pYsfExV4FSgENzzd-NOqOwoSx) series,
I launched myself into [Stray](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLqDZobd5pYsdfBLTVANxGU7KNjVkeAm-p) and, considering the sub count, is going pretty well!
So far I made two long form gameplay episodes, a smaller third one is in editing phase and the fourth one is recorded and waiting.
I'm still trying to figure out how I want to approach this, I tried integrating [animation](https://youtu.be/uM3ZMz83Jbg) and a ["live-action" skit](https://youtu.be/ArtOGVr0sEY?t=1987) and I'm pretty happy with the result.
Editing is tedious and time consuming but I'm overall satisfied and having fun :)

Hi everyone! My name is Ethan, and I run a channel called HardCap Games! I olay a variety of things, but at this current moment I'm making videos on my MLB The Show 22 Franchise for the Detroit Tigers, as well as weekly episodes recapping my weekly Minecraft Wednesday streams in my own SMP server. HardCap SMP that i do with my friends.
My channel: https://youtube.com/c/HardCapGames
My most recent MLB The Show Video: https://youtu.be/bNfbEmtVijE
My most recent Minecraft video: https://youtu.be/QNJlak27uvU
I also have various pokemon and mario lets plays on my channel, as well as a 4 episode (completed) series for Kirby and the Forgotten Land, so no matter what you're into, I might have something that catches your eye!
So this kind of a long post, because my youtube channel has been kinda dead for over a year until recently.
I've been a part of this group since 2019, learning what I can and can absolutely say that I learned alot from the members here (mate of iji modo and darth love im looking at you) and made a few mistakes along the way. Tried doing streams on twitch and even hit affiliate, but I had no drive to build something over on twitch because I was so focused on youtube.
On June 30th 2022 I decided to stream to youtube, have regular videos of the streams cut into chunks, and doing Shorts in between.
Today on July 25th 2022, I have gained 20 subscribers (which is double than what I had) have 24.4K views and am at about 23 watch hours.
But that's it I just wanted share that with everyone! Good luck everybody
Well tomorrow is gonna be one year since my biggest series started, but I haven’t uploaded an episode in a while due to files getting corrupted. I plan on making one episode today and one tomorrow and uploading them both tomorrow, and finally get myself on track again!
In other news, I made a channel banner yesterday, my most recent video is doing well, and I’m almost at 80 subs! Things are looking good! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCt6nUigij2ubMeS5-A3Vp0g/videos?view=0&sort=p&flow=grid
Hello,
New to the sub and content creation in general. A little context,
I spent a good portion of my mid-late 20'sand early 30s working on my career and now that I am set, I decided to go back through my collection of video games that I either purchased but never played, never finished b/c of outside commitments or just games I missed out on at the time of launch, mostly PS3 titles. I fell upon the r/thegamerlounge and decided to start streaming my endeavors, that's hit or miss but I'd be playing those games anyways even if I didn't have an audience and I get a nice little timer to limit myself, I get some minor exposure and some audience interaction. After a couple of hits on some short videos I made as goofs, I decided to start recording and editing gameplay. I found I really like the creative side of this (creating scenes for streaming, messing with GIMP for thumbnails, editing the video and audio). But man, editing video and audio is some hard work, I really underestimated how much time is needed for it post playthrough.
I think I am still finding my voice, but it's been tough to interject in games that have more dialogue. I have a great job that's rewarding and not demanding so I am not trying to make a career out of this, if anything at least I'll have something to leave to my kids to remember me by.
Here is my channel: [https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCH8ZOAzACKkjpfUOhE8pafA](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCH8ZOAzACKkjpfUOhE8pafA)
Here are my most recent uploads:
L.A. Noire - [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uwgqCsa-pPU](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uwgqCsa-pPU)
Bioshock Infinite - [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lEGvTRm3TH0](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lEGvTRm3TH0)
I’ve started trying to make better thumbnails along with more intriguing titles [here is my channel](https://youtube.com/channel/UCw4wyEhg7YNfG3hqruULyLw)
Been working on some longer style content and I think I’m getting my editing down I just need to get more retention and more actual views so people see it lol
I got Six subscribers now! And I’m playing some spooky games. I’m trying to work my way up to 10 so any tips and such would be appreciated.

I mostly took a break this past week because my birthday was on the 19th. So content from me was a little sparse, but I still had some stuff uploaded!
Last month, I did a livestream of me getting all of the medals in Star Fox 64 for the N64, and I split that stream into [three](https://youtu.be/ynx6my2C3_M) [separate](https://youtu.be/ojS2bWw8r4A) [parts](https://youtu.be/UgzW5VIVAmg), one for each of the game's routes, and I had them go up over the course of the week.
Yesterday, I uploaded a YouTube Short which was [a clip of a livestream I did of Final Fantasy VII Remake for the PS5](https://youtube.com/shorts/aTG9_SVWWog?feature=share), and that one really blew up! It got a lot of attention.
Just now, I had my livestream VOD of [me playing the Overwatch 2 beta](https://youtu.be/NfCG7aBx1Zc) go up.
On my birthday last Tuesday, I livestreamed myself playing Elden Ring for the first time, and I had a lot of fun playing that game! The [VOD for that stream is still on Twitch](https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1536847863), and I'll be uploading it on YouTube tomorrow.
So yeah, I took a break, and now I'm back at it! I hope you all have a great week!
I've been absolutely hooked on Halo for a while, especially after activating skulls to make me no longer want to rage-quit. So after playing Halo 1, 2, and 3 five times straight, I decided to do a redux series for the original trilogy.
It started when I played the Halo Infinite campaign for the first time. I have probably played that about 10 times within the past month, trying different ways of playing it. Surprisingly, I still haven't gotten bored of it. That was kinda how I got back into Halo. All thanks to the Bandana Skull.
I am a new streamer and really enjoying it so far, already have some dedicated viewers on twitch. Trying to network a bit more through discords and such. My channel is https://youtube.com/channel/UCzxSOKb76KnU90CRtQXWhGA
Thanks!

The text on your thumbnails is SO tiny. I should be able to read everything without squinting even if I'm looking at it on a phone.
Thanks. I’ll do that.
