I hoped this video would perform better because YouTube tends to pickup FNAF videos more. I'm not sure why it's not doing as well. Does the video just suck?

Likely due to the fact it's a video that is 00:32 seconds and uploaded as long-form video vs a short.
Youtube prioritizes Session time over other statistics so if people watch your video then leave YT they value it less than another video that keeps users on the platform for longer.
Just my thoughts.

@haughty heath@flint birch That actually makes a ton of sense, I'll try uploading it as a short and will post an update to see how it does. Thank you!
