At a point after watching a lot of those those videos you start to see how fake and for production and number of views a great deal of them are. Life is never stagnant. We all change. It was inevitable that TH-cam would change. Those early TH-cam days will never come back. However if you recognize what it has become. It enables you to see through a lot of it and focus on why you enjoyed TH-cam to begin with. Great video. I love you just playing a game while discussing what is on your mind. I have very little experience with classic Bomberman. I always thought they were more multiplayer games so I never really gave them a shot.
I go through phases watch that style for a month then burn out. TH-cam is so multifaceted the styles of content I watch get conflated and one consumption suffers at the cost of another. But I’ll always appreciate the homies here because it feels like I’m coming home to something familiar.
these random vlogs have been fun to listen to. when it comes to pick up videos i think they can be fun but the problem is most people dont know how to make them interesting. like most people will just show off the stuff without saying much and you can tell they dont care about it unless its rare or valuable or if they do talk about the game they just read off a wiki page. but i think people like Tylord do a good job telling you a story about whatever it is and what he likes about the movie/game and its fun to listen to. and same goes for collection videos where i like them but many just dont show a personality and brain did a good job with his recent NES collection. we need more like them lol
You and Tylord are the kings of the pickups. Brian is simply the king of kings. I’m glad the vlogs are going well - I’m curious how they will develop from here.
I actually really liked this video, this is exactly why I hit the reset button on my TH-cam journey, what you describing is how I felt. I love this format, keep them coming.
I feel with TH-cam for me, a lot of it was trying to prove to myself that I could do it. Did I make a huge success from it? No but do I feel like I have proven myself to be able to make quality content? Absolutely. But yeah everything is about marketing and manipulating now. It's so annoying. This goes beyond TH-cam, this is everything. There's a reason why I made a wrestling universe mode with TH-cam Content Creators in it because TH-cam is literally pro wrestling without the wrestling, every video is a promo, drama everywhere, loads of crazy bullshit to hook people. The problem is, TH-cam is real and people tend to forget that the person talking in the video is a human being. Though I think most people simply don't care. Problem is that making videos for TH-cam is the only way to get your foot in the door. From a business standpoint, you're thinking backwards. Drawing people in with clickbait first is essential, they you do the videos for you after... That's the theory at least, what I will say though is that making videos for you, while it can make you happy, it will be a constant struggle to grow. So you kinda need to find a balance really. Unless you're like me and have given up trying, in which case, welcome to the TH-cam Underground, don't work yourself too hard because you aren't getting paid and nobody is going to care anyway. The latter is my approach to TH-cam now, just fannying about to give myself an excuse to play videogames I wouldn't normally play. It's come to the point that TH-cam had become the main hub of my gaming life, I game specifically for TH-cam, they are bound together now.
@@Majora_T There is no middle ground. You either choose 1 way or the other. You play the TH-cam game and get an income from it or you don't and get no financial gain from your work. It really is that simple. Even if you did manage to get monetized on your channel, TH-cam will make it difficult for you to get a payout as you'd have to meet a threshold and could terminate your monetization at any time if you're underperforming, so you have to go all in or not bother at all. That's what happened with Bawesomeburf so I know it to be true.

I’m somewhere in the middle and my position isn’t permanent but right now, for this channel at least, the numbers are hardly relevant to me.

@@CynicalGamingBlogTerry309 it’s the middle ground between trying and not trying - not the middle ground of getting paid or not getting paid.
