Your channel art should be updated, it's just random stuff. Try to create a banner and avatar which MATCH!
Now you just got a random banner and stuff but thats not how it works. Make your own art for your channel, create your own style, this really is a must!
Also you do not have a channel trailer so currently I have got NO clue what your channel is about, introduce yourself and your channel in your trailer, try to be original with it.
I go watch your latest video and find the intro kinda weirdly done, it could be better instead of just a picture and zoom. Simple can be good but this is not so good.
The video is nicely edited and honestly I don't find it very funny but I can imagine some other people would, so keep that up.
You also want to have a consistent uploading scheme and you've really gotta start shaping your channel.
To be honest your channel now is just full of random bullcrap videos but thats not really how you're gonna get far, focus on one typ of videos and create them.

My conclusion, you've really got to work on your channel art, including avatar, banner and thumbnails, create your own style.
Try to upload consistently as what you're doing now is not really working. Also your channel seems lost, the videos are random, try to create a certain style.
You also might want to set up a channel trailer to inform what your channel is about.

I am sorry but I'd rate your channel a 5 out of 10 because it just seems like a channel which is lost, try to aim it towards a direction. Work on all of my points and you'll definitely get a higher rating :)[DOUBLEPOST=1452071366,1452070717][/DOUBLEPOST]
First of all, finally someone who gets the idea of channel styling. I love your banner and avatar, they simply match perfectly and you've aced it.
Your channel trailer is quite interesting, not so original though but it does what it is for and really introduces you few :)
I continue to your latest video with a good first impression, hoping not to be let down!
Your editing on first glance seems like how the big youtubers do it, text of what the people say, funny moments, but that's perfectly fine, the only thing here though is that I didn't find it very funny at all. I mean, I'm a d**k when it comes to funny videos, I only laugh in very RARE cases, sadly your video didn't change a thing. The video length is 5 minutes which I find perfect for this kind of videos. It's easy to keep the interest going on the video and your video and audio quality are also perfectly fine.

I watched your gmod video too and that's also fine. So my conclusion is here:
Everything may seem fine on first glance but I feel like there is one thing bothering. Your commentaries lack originality... now you're just one of the thousands of "cliché gaming channels" and I might wanna warn you for that. Why should they watch your channel? Your personality is not very original either, this might still be in development so I'd suggest to just keep going for a while and if you don't see any change in your sub count etc then try to create slight changes to your commentaries that could help you rise. I'd rate your channel a 7,5 out of 10 right now, it'd be higher but it's just not that original YET :)[DOUBLEPOST=1452072392][/DOUBLEPOST]
Your channel art fits, but it's not good. You have got the right feel of creating a certain style but it looks like it's made in paint, improve on that, if you cannot do it let someone make some good channel art for you.
Also you're missing out on a channel trailer, I've got no clue what you're about right now as its not mentioned in your bannner or anything and I don't see a trailer.
I go to your videos and click the latest one, this video seemed like a vlogging/highlights video.
The video was interesting to watch and 3 minutes seemed perfect to not lose attention, good job on that.
I go to your other Destiny video and I think I got it right, it's just you making a killstreak, right?
I go to your BO3 video too and find a normal video, your intro commentary is very boring and not enthousiastic at all, try to work on it, remind that it takes time before you finally got something good going. Your video quality seems fine and audio too but try to increase the volume of your microphone.
Your commentary is making the video VERY boring and I clicked away because of that, so I've got a conclusion.

Improve your channel art, also try to work on creating more professional looking thumbnails.
A channel trailer would also do a dang fine job, create one!
Now your commentary is the most important part, work on it, make sure you didn't just came out of your bed or are very sleepy. Make sure you got the right time to do the video so you can give your ultimate in the commentary because now it just scares viewers away.

For now I'd rate you a 6/10 as you've got quite some work to do but it is all possible, good luck :)
Thanks for the review, i honestly don't know why i asked for it - not paying any attention to the youtube stuff but i just might make it all consistent as i did on my other channel ( https://www.youtube.com/user/CreepyMeowWKWS ), as you can see there's an intro, trailer, and so on.
Edit: i forgot i removed all my videos.
 
Channel feedback would be much appreciated! I'm trying to get better and grow faster and hopefully others like it enough. Hope you can help me out! Thanks!
 
One review for a loyal YTtalker, coming right up! :)
The channel art, normally I hate on avatars that don't match with the style of the banner but you did that right. Your banner is very simple black and white-ish and your avatar is in black and white, which makes it fit, good job!
MWEH- No channel trailer but just a random video. It's a way of introducing yourself and letting potential viewers dive into your videos straight away and let them have a touch of it but perhaps you might want to get a real trailer :)
Video and audio quality is good! Background music is also perfectly placed!
Your personality is awesome! You have certainly got alot of potential! You've got character and thats what makes your kind of channels unique!
I go to your Life With BPD video and gotta love the intro, it's short but perfect!
I admire how you share such personal information with the viewers, my respect!
This video, seems to be 9 minutes long but what I'd recommend is to shorten it, around 5 minutes would be perfect for your kind of videos. People will not easily click away and think, oh its only 5 minutes long, I can take that, and will watch the whole video!

So I've got my conclusion ready.
Your channel nails what it's aiming for but has some small things to be fixed here and there, which is the length of videos. You might wanna shorten them to 5 minutes for some of the videos and see if you've got some increasement if views, I could be wrong so you can just continue with longer videos but you should give it a try. You've got an awesome personality and character so you're perfect for this kind of channel what you're doing.

I'd rate you a 8 out of 10 as you're doing a dang fine job, keep it up :)[DOUBLEPOST=1452162782,1452162380][/DOUBLEPOST]
Channel art is ALMOST nailing it! The text in the middle seems kinda blurry, it might be me, but try to make that clear then you're good :)
Your channel trailer is wrong. Don't start off your channel trailer with text, nobody is interested by that, instead just say it yourself, that'd work WAY and WAY better than text! The other part of the channel trailer seems fine to me!
I go to your latest dishonored video, and it seems like your game is lagging a bit, try to improve that! There's so many gaming channels out there which have 60fps gaming videos, why would they watch a lagging video of yours?
Your intro seems fine but is too long, shorten it as there's nothing much interesting going on apart from a cat flying through the screen. Just make the logo of you pop up and then boom, done with the intro, that would be good enough!
Your commentary seems perfectly fine and is interesting to listen to!
For a gaming channel you've got 11 minutes of gameplay, I will suggest you to try to shorten your videos to 7 or 8 minutes and see what happens to the views, people really tend to watch shorter gaming videos which contain interesting things than 11 minutes which are not full of interesting stuff to watch.
Your video and audio quality seems fine and I've got a conclusion already.

Your channel is about you gaming and you're one awkward guy, thats the concept of your channel, original, I may say.
Now you want to improve on the games, (on Dishonored atleast), make sure the games you play are atleast 60fps, many people do not watch videos which lag and stutter, so they'll click away. You might want to improve on the intro too and the channel trailer. Also fix that thing on the banner.

I'd give you a 6,5 out of 10 for now, with the improvement done this would convert into a 7,5 or 8![DOUBLEPOST=1452163353][/DOUBLEPOST]
Gotta love the banner of your channel, but the avatar, WHY DOESN'T ANYONE MAKE THE AVATAR FITTING TO THE BANNER?!?!
Work on the avatar, and make it fitting to the banner, perhaps make the camera thing your logo, your avatar!
You've got no channel trailer and you really might want one, what I'd suggest is to make a channel trailer which introduce us to your films, show us some of your best clips from these movies in your trailer which makes the viewer want to watch your movies!
Your audio and video quality seem fine, which is really a must, so good job on that!
I watched your video named Pain Test and god dang I've gotta say this, I'm not easily amused by videos but throughout this whole video I had a smile on my face! You aced it! The punches seemed real, the editing was good and you two seem very well fit for what you're doing, I've gotta say, a really nice job on that!
The music really fit perfect under the movie and I've got a conclusion.

Keep up with these awesome shorts, just improve a bit on the avatar and you're good to go!
I'd rate you a 8,5 out of 10, THAT'S THE HIGHEST I EVER GAVE TO SOMEONE HERE!
Make sure to upload consistently and you'll create a fanbase really soon, also some promotion the right way would really boost your subs and viewers.
This is a channel I'd watch, keep it up with awesome and funny shorts, do not stop with this.[DOUBLEPOST=1452164015][/DOUBLEPOST]
Last of the day, here we go!
Channel art, simply good, really fits the mood of your channel!
Your channel trailer starts with one of your videos, random but it surely introduces what you're about, which fits the channel!
The voice over, story teller or whatever is a good and interesting female voice to listen to, I dunno if that's you but good job!
The microphone quality is an important factor on the channel and I must say it's as clear as it can be!
I love the idea of your channel and gotta say that it's dang original and you really know what you're doing!

This is a short review but I've got a clear vision already.
Your channel really gives the viewer a unique, creepy feel. Your voice is really fitting over the videos, a really good voice for telling stories like you are.
Your latest video is quite long and I am doubting, would I, or someone, watch a video that long? I doubt it, especially when I can only listen to it and not see anything. Perhaps there's a way to give some extra footage, something to also watch when you're telling the story. I feel like one background picture is not gonna do it, and perhaps you can find a job to add something to the video, different pictures maybe? Some scary footages which fits the story? You can also create some variation by inviting other people to do the voices of the stories, that'd be cool to hear and not consistently put you in the spotlight of the stories.
Other than that the music also fits the piece and so I'd continue with the result.

I'd rate you an 8 out of 10. Your channel is unique and you're doing a good job on it but you're uploads are not consistent enough to make it big. Try to upload a weekly story, because then you'll really attract the attention you deserve. Perhaps add some extra footage and pictures to the longer stories to make it even more interesting to listen to and watch. Perhaps now and then have a guest starring do the voice overs to give a bit of variation (I'd even love to volunteer and help out with that :D)

Good job and keep it up, I'd love to see more!

Thanks a lot for the review! I find it interesting that you say that people might not watch a video that is so long with only one picture, but that's the way I actually enjoy them and I guess I just assumed other people would too. (Mainly I just listen to them in bed or while doing something else so I don't really look at the actual video part. I also like longer videos so I don't have to constantly look for another video). Also, it would take so much longer to find pictures and edit it, but I might consider doing that if there's more demand for it.

Thank you so much for all your insight.

Thank you so much for all your insight.
It is my pleasure to give my opinion, just remind that its an opinion and about the one picture thing, you can keep that if you want, its just that most people WATCH youtube instead of listen to it :)
Another way is to have one background picture but several moving layers over it so its like you are creating a certain atmosphere for the video.
Just see what you'll do with the feedback, its all up to you after all!
Good luck![DOUBLEPOST=1452262512,1452243352][/DOUBLEPOST]
Channel feedback would be much appreciated! I'm trying to get better and grow faster and hopefully others like it enough. Hope you can help me out! Thanks!
Channel art looks quite good, good job on that!
Your channel trailer seems like highlights from your videos, that's fine.
I go to your latest upload... I find the intro quite uninteresting, so many channels got such an intro, the cliché house music, this ofcourse is personal preference but I am the one reviewing your channel after all :)
The video is just a 6 minute gameplay which could be interesting if it were highlights but its just 6 plain minutes of gameplay which I find kinda boring honestly.
I go to episode 1 of the series and I hear some commentary, your voice is enthousiastic and seems good enough, keep working on the commentary and make sure your stories are interesting! What I am missing under the video is some background music, try to get some music on the background to give an extra effect instead of only your voice and the game on the background. The video/game is lagging, but as mentioned you were experimenting with the software. Now I'd not advise you to still upload that footage. Don't experiment and upload if the experiment failed. Make sure all of your footage is good.

My conclusion: Work on your videos, your commentary and make sure you do the experiments BEHIND the scenes and don't upload that stuff.
Also work on your stories and commentaries as they're not quite that interesting YET, but I can see potential.
I'd rate you a 6,5 out of 10 right now as you're still trying too much on your channel. Make sure your uploads are good quality, lag-free, and consist of content that people would want to watch. Improve that and you'd rise to a 7,5.[DOUBLEPOST=1452262991][/DOUBLEPOST]
That would be great. Thank you.
Strange but somehow fitting channel art. The banner just fits with the avatar but you might want to improve it later on as I can still see some improvement to be made in the banner.
Your channel trailer is alright, it shows your music style, what games you play and who you are, good job.
I go to your latest video and find it hard to hear what you're saying, try to increase the volume of your audio and make sure all of the audio is the same volume.
I gotta love how you simply work with normal pictures which actually suck but your commentary makes it great. Keep it up with the awesome commentaries and story telling of yours! The video is well edited and clearly some time has been put into the script writing and video editing!
I go to another one of your videos about addicting gaming genres, your video and audio quality is suprisingly good!
I love the way you sketch the videos, I as a gamer love how I can recognise such scenarios!

I've got a conclusion, ALREADY? You say, Yes I say.
You're a unique channel which nicely mixes some music here and there with your awesome sketches. I'd say to mainly focus on your sketches and story-telling like your two latest videos, these are the best! Perhaps improve on your channel banner and keep going with the editing, the more you edit the better they get, and you sure have some potential.
I'd rate you a 7,5 out of 10 which could be a 8 very soon. Keep up the dang fine work![DOUBLEPOST=1452263452][/DOUBLEPOST]
Would really appreciate a review on my channel whenever you find time :-D Thanks in advance !
What have we got here, a channel fully dedicated to Mount & Blade, this is gonna get interesting as I'm a huge fan of the series!
Channel art is good and avatar and banner fit nicely with each other.
There is no channel trailer which is a must in your case, people who are not known with the game will be confused what you're about, introduce yourself, introduce the game and perhaps show some highlights!
Also why is the uploads section not at top at your home? I'd like to see what you've uploaded and THEN after that perhaps check your playlists, you might wanna adjust that. I go to your latest video and the intro is short but okay! Your commentary is fine, but you might wanna increase the volume a bit.
Good use of annotations in your video! You've got black bars in your game, can you not run the game properly? Find a 16:9 screen resolution so we won't have to see the black bars! You're a tactical player and that's good to see in such a game,after all I would categorize your channel as a tactical games gaming channel.
Your commentary is fine and you do tell whats in your mind which is good as you tell us your strategy.

Conclusion: Your idea of the channel is good and original, it's fun to see a channel dedicated to one game with TONS of mods! Your video quality is the most important key here, there's black bars throughout the whole video. You have to make sure to run the right resolution and get these away. It's just very rookie to have black bars, you really want to have the best quality! Also increase the volume of your audio in some of your videos so we can properly hear you.
For now because of the quality and black bars, I'd rate you a 6,5 out of 10, many people won't be entertained with these black bars and if you will fix that then I'd rate you a 7,5 to 8 as you're original and know what you're doing with these games. Keep it up and try to work on the quality! :)

To be honest, and for my embarrassment, I didn't even notice the black lines... I've no idea how I missed that, but thanks a million for pointing that out !
I have in my mind to do a channel trailer, but because of the genre of the game, I had no idea what to add to it. It's on my to do list since a long time :)

Really appreciate you taking the time for the feedback.

All the best,
Chris
