- An impromptu vlog by that sad British goth boy who discusses all things vampiric. This time, our Lore and Saviour postulate on wtf TH-cam is doing to his videos, and how his viewers can help.

Well, I found you through my WOD obsession. Though I wish your channel was recommended to me, and other's sooner. Your backlog of video's are amazing, and I'll try to watch them when I can.
People have a tendency to ask "where is XYZ?" instead of looking for XYZ. It's the same when someone comes to me and says "It's such a shame Masquerade has been out of print since 2003." They don't think to search via Google or Bing or whatever and just assume there was nothing following the last time they heard of it. V20 and V5 come as a total surprise. Requiem 2e and Curseborne even moreso.
This can be frustrating for the person providing the answer, but likewise, if the asker has no reason to think otherwise, they don't see any harm in asking. Really, it's just a matter of understanding not everyone approaches a situation with research. Sometimes people are more comfortable asking a question or making an assumption to get them started.
In terms of your Wraith videos and Cyberpunk content, I've seen them and enjoyed them. You hit the nail on the head regarding their viewership however, that it's less down to TH-cam and more down to most of your fans only wanting Vampire content. These are the people who don't comment and just watch or listen to you as background noise. If you get 50 comments on a Vampire video with 1000 views, that's 950 people who just want to hear you talk about Vampire.
I have much the same thing when I make a video about The World Below or whatever. It's less algorithm and more viewer disinterest. It's normal for a subscriber to think "that's not my game, so I'm not interested" because they're dedicated to the game that spawns the content, not the content creator.
All in all, you do a good job and shouldn't be afraid of making videos outside the realm of Vampire. You make them well. But you'll always run into people who don't search your video history (which is impressively girthy) and aren't interested in your non-Vampire videos. Make videos for your enjoyment first, and don't get hung up on thumbs up, view counts, or subscriber numbers.
I appreciate all of that, thank you Matthew 💙
I don't get consistent notifications from any of the creators I've followed for years. Every time I look up a new game or show TH-cam wants to make it my new personality instead of realizing I'm a human who can like more than one thing at a time
Ditto. I covered Star Crossed because a few of my viewers and patrons were interested, but I only get views from CofD which is crazy to me.
And of course people don’t know about the niche WoD/CofD stuff because the VtM outnumbers it. So making more WtO lore videos would hopefully increase interest, but one TH-camr cannot increase the interest of a single game line.
I thought this was Google generation? Just putting Wraith the Oblivion Lore in Google gives me Primogen, Stygia, and yourself.
Sucks to hear. I hope you can get a bit of recognition from the comments for your hard work.
It is interesting, several times I've clicked the [subscribe] button and just thought to myself, 'too bad, I'll never see this channel's videos in my notifications or recommended again.' but I know it helps the people running the channel and at least there is a subscribed list for me that I can use to manually bing search the channel and find their videos again.
TH-cam basically never plugs 'smaller' creators stuff.
My suggested vids aren't usually about ttrpg and when something popsin I don't follow, it tends to be D&D. Which I don't watch to much.
I activly seek out your vids. So they pop up quite often.

FWIW - Your most recent two videos showed up in my feed.
Wait organizing folders makes you a freak? Guess that makes two of us
As far as I am aware I get all the notifications for your videos ^^
But i don't like Wraith. Love VtM and Werewolf though. The Cyberpunk bit was nice, but for me personally not interesting, so I watched only the first one.
And your lore videos are great.
I've actually heard that you're on a list because of your criticism of Paradox, but you didn't hear that from me...
Lol what list?😂
@@LoreByNightVtM itsjust something that they mentioned to an offiliate who was also mildly critical.
They don't like criticism, even if it's earned and justified.
Just what I've heard through back channels. Nothing official...
I don't get consistent notifications for you.
Oof 😣
I don't know if its TH-cam it self or its user preference; fast-paced, down to the point, witty, heavily edited videos does best.
I think of it like: Do all the mental processing necessary then show it to the viewer don't make them do work. It must be clear, easily understandable, entertaining,
Risking sounding like a know it all i have some suggestions. Please interpret anything i am writing as stupid rather than malicious(conveying intentions in writing is not my strong suit)
Visualization: Something any thing relevant on the screen to look at while listening would be nice for example wiki entries of discipline powers or characters.(even related art work)
Less eccentricity: With your accent it hard for me to understand what you are saying, add in the character voice and unique words WOD uses. Me nor youtube captions can decipher what is being said.
Too much padding not enough substance: For example Obtenebration, what does it do? When you listen or read any vtm material except mechanics. You would have a vaguest idea of what it really does. What it really does, I don't know, do you, does anyone.
If you didn't read the book. When all of the above combined it comes across opaque, pretentious, word salad of midnight stories from people who wants to be a writer but didn't make the cut.
Maybe you are too deep in to see the whole picture. Sometimes İ feel like I am in a presentation of "company cool aid jargon gaslighting nonsense".
Am I stupid or something. Everyone else seems to understand what is being discussed, it all sounds like bullshyte to me.
If your preferred viewer base is English people who already read the books Just ignore my ignorance.
