Thumbnail is very clutteres and barely readable.
The video itself... In my opinion the best thing about it is the music 😅
I think it would help A LOT if you use your voice. with the text its just boring and i dont think a lot of people will sit through it.
Also you could probably make it half its lenght to keep it interesting. there are a lot of parts that will people make close the video just due to nothing really happening (for example the part where you film the back of your head while playing)

Maybe that'd make it less distracting and call people in better

#

You could also do that with a very subtle transparent black overlay, and then add another subtle vignette that centers on the text to guide viewers to it

It also makes it so people can't get distracted for a second without losing track of the content, which is bad for retention. Cutting some parts off would deffo help, but by far the best thing you could do is add your own voiceover

Hey. Thanks a lot for the input.

#

About the voice I tried in the past and I have this feeling that my eastern European accent is a bad thing. I'll try though...

#

Thumbnail is easy to try and fix in post launch.
Again: many thanks!

I consume a lot of Youtube from non-native speakers... i basically dont even recognise it. dont worry about it too much. It can even be a gimmick.

At first it'll be scary and you might stumble on your words a bit, but I promise you that give it a handful of tries and you'll not even notice your accent anymore

@long kite @icy sleet can I please extend the feedback request to a new vid?

I've tried to incorporate some feedback.
Also, @long kite ]it's very scary and hard to speak. That's for sure. It took me 1 full day to record voice for this.

Your new video is 100% better than the last! Congrats on overcoming the fear of speaking, your voiceover was great!
I didn't watch the full video, but at times you were playing in silence, which I would say could use some more voiceover, it was really fun when you spoke!

#

Your accent's great! Genuinely, loved to hear you speak

#

Also, the start of the video had great editing and sound fx work, congrats!

You're welcome! YouTube's about trying, and if you keep on at it I'm sure you'll only get better
