Ive wanted to be a gaming youtuber sense i was a kid but i realized im pretty boring and i dont have anything interesting to say, im also not sure if ill stick with it like most do, but i want to try anyways. Ive condierd playing without voice but that would be even more boring and im not a pro gamer to say.

What would you advise?

    You can also do it like Dunkey does. Just record gameplay first, edit it to make an interesting or funny video and then later add the commentary and act like it’s given live during the moment. It’s easier to do if you aren’t used to giving off the cuff commentary during a live let’s play video. And you don’t have to be a live streamer to be a gaming YouTuber.

    Maybe just focus on creating short videos first so you learn how to edit, give commentary and create little stories (yes even Let’s Play videos need to have some sort of “story” and theme). Remember the first dozens of videos will suck. Don’t focus on viewership or subs focus on honing the craft first. You also need to figure out your unique selling point, the thing people watch your videos for instead of the millions of other gameplay videos, and you will only figure that out if you start making videos.
