Second video feedback!! :)

[abstract lotus]

Hey everyone!! 👋🏼 I have recently just posted my second proper video on YouTube!! I’m still so new to this whole content creation gig so all the feedback I can get would be so helpful!

I’m all about improving so be as harsh as necessary, had a bit of fun editing this although it feels like it took me forever lol.

But yes just some general feedback on content, and maybe if anyone know whether descriptions matter that much and any improvements I could have for mine would be great! Thank you in advance!

P.S I know the thumbnail isn’t great lol - it’s something I know I need to improve on

The background music is a bit too loud (a common mistake, I used to fuck it up too) but more importantly, these style of videos are VERY hard to get any views with... There are a lot of other channels doing the exact same, try being more idea focused, like a challenge or a story... Yeah it sucks but that's how gaming is kinda done these days

agreed, music bit too loud, and doesn't really go with the gameplay. I think also for me is the value of this video - what am I getting out of it? You playing a game, I can watch hundreds of others on YT. You have some commentary, but it also feels like any other video I'd watch like this.

If it were me, I'd throw in tutorials, guides, news, something to help you stand out from the crowd. You can't rely on personality alone these days, unless you really go all out and do something unique.

It's tough, but good luck!

Thank you both for your comments I really appreciate it! Yeah I guessed that was the issue to be honest, it’s hard to stand out. It’s hard now days to think of something someone isn’t already doing, but I’ll do my best 😃

Check out this guy, he's quite popular on the server, but he does a great job at giving people useful info for overwatch. Perhaps taking some of his concepts into Apex Legends could be useful: https://www.youtube.com/@TheWatchOverOW
