Curious on why this video may have failed!

[spiral sierra]

Hey Everyone!

Bit of a weird one here. I’m mostly satisfied with my start as a YouTuber and think that I’ve learned a loooot since I started at the start of last year.

I’m mostly just curious. My second video did incredibly well and although I think it’s good I don’t think it’s incredible.

But my new one has failed awfully. I personally think it’s much better when it comes to editing, scripting and thumbnail.

But I’m curious what was its reason for its downfall?

This is no means me saying: oh it won’t rise. Because my second video started slow and then exploded after a few days.

But out of curiosity what do you think could’ve been the reason?

This also me not begging for views by the way I’m just wondering what I could do to
Improve for the future.

As an educated guess I’m guessing it could be outdated or the length?

(Edit) showing the old thumbnail for whatever reason. I’ve attached it in the comments

yo

add the text to the steam one

apply both

as in, the text could look good smaller and placed above the steam review

or

text smaller on the left and steam review underneath with the same image as above

thumbnail does look great though

the hook is great

yeah dude this video is really well made, since you only have 3 videos on your channel i think its a lot of youtube still needing to find your audience

i have 50+ videos on my channel and youtube is still trying to find my audience

very well produced, microphone sounds great, thumbnail is almost perfect

its peak

you will do well here

built in subtitles may also help for extra retention?
