    I loved the vid! I saw you put a Lure on in London during the weekend near some pub. It was so cool to see that many players at raids.

    • @MoreKevinChapman
      @MoreKevinChapman  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I put on a few lures across London over the course of the weekend! Was this the one at the pub next to the park? We stopped in there for a drink on the way out of the park.

      I’m in London during Global Go Fest, so might film some of that one of the days. Also considering the Barcelona Ciy Safari later in the year.

    I still see the odd group of people out and about playing on community days but yeah, 2016 was something else. People who weren't even into Pokemon were playing and going out for no other reason than just to play. It was like the act of walking was invented in 2016.

    I was at the Go Fest in London too! It was a great, amazing time, just a shame the weather was.. not the best lmao I didn't catch any shinies at the event, however, I did end up getting the Rayquaza from the city raid event and it was a shiny so that more than made up for it

    I too stopped playing for a while. There just weren’t many poke stops and gyms in my small city and it was getting ridiculous spending the gas money to drive to a bigger city just to walk around and catch pokemon. I got bored a couple months ago and downloaded it again and there is a lot more in my city now and lots of cool events.

    Hi Kevin, love the video, i am pretty i saw you at the park on the day :D How was the next day for you?
    Also, just curios, what camera did you use for the day? looks like its very compact and no weight to the thing

    • @MoreKevinChapman
      @MoreKevinChapman  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It’s a DJI Pocket. Ideal for things like this where I’m very active and don’t want to carry a big camera around.

    Hey bud! I’m a VERY new channel, something I’ve become really passionate about and I would love to know what camera you’re using to film, it looks small an compact with great quality too! My first video (which is coming this week!) is a mixture of screen records and stills but no decent self filming 😢! But some advice on the camera would be amazing!

    • @MoreKevinChapman
      @MoreKevinChapman  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I used a DJI Pocket for this video. It’s not great indoors or in low light, but for videos like this where it’s all outside and I’m moving around a lot so don’t want to be carrying anything big and bulky it’s ideal.

    This isn’t meant to sound hateful, more helpful. But I think if you’re trying to build a travel audience. Maybe focus on travel content here and use the old channel or something for vids like this.
    I’ll watch anything as I’ve watched the vlogs for ages and enjoy your personality
    But I don’t think everyone who would watch travel stuff like going to cities or on holidays would click or watch pokemon stuff may get confusing for TH-cam to know who to suggest your content to again.
    This might do well but I just don’t see it being the same audience as most the other stuff you’re planning, if your plan is travel vids like on the old channel idk just my thoughts / feedback. Something to at least keep an eye on as you don’t want to have the same issue with multiple audiences for different niches on one channel

    • @MoreKevinChapman
      @MoreKevinChapman  ปีที่แล้ว +4

      The plan is the same as it’s been for the last 6 months - travel videos, events, days out, conventions. Travel for nerds. I don’t expect this video to do well, and that’s fine. The key is I won’t have to see people in the comments asking for the daily vlog to come back or asking where Andy is.
