youtube is getting over run by gamers

It's an easy medium and the least like work. I mean, what are you going to find more of, a few guys who are like "Omg bros, let's create a comedy sketch team and come up with shows every week, I can script it and you guys will memorize your lines and we'll be like a modern day monty python!!" Or "Hey dudes there are people getting tons of views just playing games on youtube we should so be filming this s**t" It's just a far more likely scenario, plus it caters to people's insecurities. If you're not comfortable being on camera and just talking about your feelings on things, just be the voice reacting to your game. It's alot less nerve racking to some people. Plus it's fun lol.[DOUBLEPOST=1375314608,1375314577][/DOUBLEPOST]

I had a mini crisis over this when they first arrived.

It's not easy. I spend 2 days on just one SHORT video. The regular ones can take a lot longer. It may be easier, but it's in no way easy. At least if you put work in it to make it good

haha yeah its crazy, i mean in my eyes its easier setting up the camera and recording just normal s**t, like my channel is all normal stuff, very minimal acting or effect to make, its just stuff me and my gf do in our normal lives but record and upload it. gaming seems complicated to record, i mean i wouldnt even know how to do it, haha, id set up my handycam in front of the tv and try that haha

Meh, you just sync the audio to the video. It's really not complicated. Splitting the room and acting with yourself seems complicated... I should try it...

It's pretty simple actually, theres a lot of programs where all you do is buy it, set it up and then press a button to record!
 
The gaming videos are only going to increase as more devices allow users to upload their recorded gameplay directly to youtube.
 
haha, the only acting i do is like my sarcastic tough guy intros, after the intro im just my normal self, but even then i do the sarcastic s**t all the time, haha, so not much acting if any

Well yeah I spent a whole day filming my first let's play. But there's no writer's block/writing session with a let's play. You just pick a game and film, talk while you play it. This isn't as easy as it sounds, but it's not as hard as other things. Creating an idea from nothing is alot harder to get started than letting something like a game pull commentary out of you. Not to mention not everyone works hard on their gaming channels. Some do though and they can be really entertaining to watch :)[DOUBLEPOST=1375315082,1375315039][/DOUBLEPOST]

Oh god...this isn't good! Next thing you know you'll learn to program the floppy disk so that everything you put on it is what I think!

Or am I? :D
 
Because gaming is big and its easier to do.compared to say even vlogging as less editing and animations, music even though they are all massive they arnt as big because of the reason of it being easier to do gaming.
