As someone with a good amount of anxiety, and insomnia, this really is relaxing. I love games, and educated discussion/reviews about them and their history, and so naturally this is nice to listen to for both entertainment and relaxation. Thanks Pete.
This video is just what I've always wanted. I have insomnia and what helps me go to bed is turning on video game podcasts but most of the time it really isn't geared toward the sleeping individual. Thanks pete this is very nice of you. I appreciate this video and really hope you make more.
Possible list of Pete Dorr's Top Ten Games (Taken from watching his videos throught the years) 1). ICO 2). SOCOM II 3). Shadow of the Colossus 4). Dark Cloud 5). Super Mario 64 6). Skyrim 7). Little Big Planet 8). Final Fantasy ??? 9). Diddy Kong Racing 10).Rez
great video, and great idea for a new series. I LOVE putting your videos on in the background while playing games/relaxing/sleeping. This is seriously perfect. NOTE: DON'T CHANGE YOUR VOICE AT ALL. The tone and volume is perfect, it's not like a creepy kind of whisper which is fantastic.
Nicely done, Pete! I didn't sleep to this but it was very soothing and relaxing to listen to this. Also, Sonic Adventure 2 is my favourite game of all-time so a sequel is like a dream for me too!
I was skeptical but I must admit I did enjoy this. It was nice to have some relaxing game talk going as I prepped for bed. I would like to see more of these. Nice experiment, Pete.
Awesome job Pete! I love ASMR style videos, so I think this is a great addition to your channel! It's a great combination of being able to be used for sleep, along with making just a nice podcast to listen to. Some people make ASMR style videos a little awkward with the intense whispering, you seem to have a really good in between of whispering and normal talking, it's very natural! I hope to see more!
I really enjoy your videos and watch them everything. When you posted a video about this I thought it was a little strange but I really enjoyed it. The video had a awesome topic and actually put me to sleep. Can't wait for episode 2
Great video Pete. I'm not affected by ASMR or anything but I always found your long videos very relaxing, to begin with. My problem is my brain being overstimulated with thoughts and anxieties before bed time, but I think a simple monologue about games might help sleep faster. I've tried music and podcasts and they don't help.
Pete! This video was great. I listened to it last week and it put me to sleep in about 15 minutes. Granted, it was 2 a.m. and I was super tired, but it still was very relaxing to listen to. I listened to the rest of this tonight because I wanted to know all of what you had to say haha. Good work and I hope to see more of these.
I liked it. Thumbs up! At the very least it's much more comfortable to listen to than all the screaming that is all over the internet these days. "HELLO AND WELCOME!!!! Today we're talking about STUFF, YEAHHHHHHHHH AND BE SURE TO LEAVE A COMMENT AND SUBSCRIBE BECAUSE YOLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I'LLSEEYOUINTHENEXTEPISODEOFTHISSHOWWHERE I.... TALKABOUTEVERYTHINGONTHEPLANETWITHOUTBREATHINGBYE" The. Horror.
Even though it didn't put me to sleep, I listened to and enjoyed the entire video. I would really love if you DO do one talking about Final Fantasy XI, as it was the first MMO I got into, and for a couple of years I really enjoyed and have some great memories from.
Great idea! It's like a calming podcast talking about games! I'll definitely "use" the next one to try to sleep, because for me it's hard to sleep, so we'll see :)
ASMR and video games blended together. Excellent idea, Pete! Hopefully you'll get to keep this series going for quite some time :) this is a growing trend that for example Heather Feather has tried on her channel and it really does work!
Where's episode 2? How am I going to get yo sleep tonight!? I like listening to shit like this at bed time, I find it very hard to get to sleep, so keep making these and I for one will keep listening
I used this video to help me fall asleep the last couple of nights. I've been having trouble sleeping for a long time now. I can't for more so can make a playlist of these.
ASMR works for me when I just listen and not watch. I think you've done a really great job and that this will work for many 'tingle heads'. I'll certainly keep listening to your videos but not for ASMR reasons. I would need actual sounds to be present that mean something, other than just your voice. Still, good going Pete. I'm sure you'll make many listeners happy.
28:23 If you ever decide to bring this series back, I would LOVE an episode on FFXI, Pete. I played that game as hardcore as a person could when I was 15 from 2003-2005. Like you, I could talk probably for hours in-depth about the game - it was that impactful of an experience. Loved the episode of you and Johnny talking about it.
Try a windscreen so they can't hear you breathe over the mic. You can even make one very cheaply. This video thing isn't for me but just tryin to help you help others a little better. I sleep with a fast blasting fan about 12" from my face. Not sure if it's the white noise but I've done it since I was a kid.
Not gonna lie brother. Listenimg to this on the drive to work this morning and almost rear ended the car in front of me because i completely zoned out.
I have pretty bad insomnia and this video definitely (and surprisingly) helped with that, so thanks! I had never even heard of ASMR before, but I will definitely be looking into it.
One tip for sleep Pete is to not have action thoughts. Avoiding thinking about anything you have to do, like having to sleep - it triggers your brain to wake up. Instead, try to have perceptive thoughts, like about how comfortable you are. Also, Tank Tank Tank (arcade) rocks. It was probably my favourite part of Royal Caribbean's Allure of the Seas. O and great vid 10/10 would pass out again
This is actually awesome. I usually listen to youtube vids before bed anyways - and i tend to stay away form ones where the dude is screaming like a desperate comedian. Just game talk without the cocaine, love it.
Hell yeah pete you have the perfect voice to pull off what your going for. You would make good late night radio. Just talking relaxed about video game news. Thats some stuff you should think about doing. (:
Amazing! I have one tip though- Maybe a little more whispery (just a tad) and maybe you can use more diction because that is a trigger for many people! :) Great job! Can't wait for more!
Great video Pete. Though, I'd argue that in terms of gameplay and design Sonic Advance is the closest to a true Sonic 4 we'll ever get. Things really started moving in a different direction with Sonic Advance 2 onward, but the first Sonic Advance is fantastic.
I've always thought you had a soothing voice Pete, I think this is a great idea for you to do and my dreams are Pokémon and fire emblem on ps4/vita with that level of graphic quality but yeah that will obviously never happen
do more plz I loved this video and this series looks good and it helped me sleep and I love watching ur videos so if u can make more sleppin with Pete and yea ur my favorite TH-cam gammer ever :) :) :) :)
Great video! Watched until the end but not whilst trying to get to sleep. I'm sure this would do the trick though. A Final Fantasy 11 episode would be cool!
Wow just wow.... This is awesome, thanks for trying to help people with trouble sleeping. Amazing video definitely helped me sleep. Looking forward to more videos keep it going ☺
2 Years ago I didn't sleep for a week straight...horrible existence that week was, working full time at the time too i was a mess, If i ever have that again this might be useful, It's working this video, very relaxing even though at first i thought 'what a load of bs'
I really appreciate this video, as someone who has a lot of trouble sleeping, this actually helped me fall asleep, If you hv time to do more that would be great,if not we understand.
He have you a link and told you to click it to see a video that explains what this is so... But yes, that's the point, because some people pointed out that he had a soothing voice and that he should do ASMR style stuff, so he figured he'd try it out
***** ASMR channels has got to be one of the biggest growing channels on TH-cam at the moment. People are getting to 50k + subs within a month just by whispering in a mic lol.
Enjoyed this but recommend get a pop filter since the p's and b's are really loud compared to everything else. Also recommend figuring out a way to position the mic so it's not being held or moved much.
After looping it a couple of times, I did manage to sleep with this video! I have a couple of suggestions for you, PeteDorr, in case you want to continue the series : 1. You might want to invest in a pop filter for your mic, to muffle your "P"s and lip smacking. You can find generic ones for even $5-$10. Or a compressor could work too. 2. Not sure whether you can do this in post-production, but if not, I would suggest investing in something like the Waves Vocal Rider plugin, so you have a fixed and narrow volume range on your voice, because there were times your voice was either too low or too loud; this plugin compensates for all that in a very natural way. It's kind of pricy though, not sure if it's worth it. 3. I, personally, think it would have been more efficient if the video was maybe like an hour long. I don't know about others, but as far as I'm concerned, it takes me about an hour and a half to fall asleep. If you can indeed talk about Final Fantasy XI for literally hours, I'll definitely take you up on that, haha ~ But jokes aside, thank you for this upload, it was great.
***** I think you're right about the mouth sounds, but I was waking up with every lip smack and with some prominent "P" sounds, that's why I suggested the pop filter; you still get all the soothing sounds, but it just muffles the peaks of harsh sounds, but maybe you're right, maybe they're not being used in ASMR videos.

Oh my GOD! You actually did it! I was the guy in the stream that suggested you try ASMR! OH MY GOD THIS RULES!
Yes thanks to those in my Twitch chat that night who brought this to my attention.
I was also in the stream haha xD
Pete's videos inspired me and introduced me to ASMR.
And now you have almost 200k followers 🙌🏼

Yoooo wow awesome coming back to see my comment on this and then finding you here too man! :D
@@ASMRGamingNews mad mannnn - see you’re continuing to kill it man much love! 🙌🙌
The idea of AlphaOmegaSin whispering you to sleep on one of his videos makes me laugh....hard!
great video, and great idea for a new series. I LOVE putting your videos on in the background while playing games/relaxing/sleeping. This is seriously perfect. NOTE: DON'T CHANGE YOUR VOICE AT ALL. The tone and volume is perfect, it's not like a creepy kind of whisper which is fantastic.
Always found your regular videos really relaxing. It's cool to see you embracing stuff like this.
Make episode 2!!! I love this video! I watch it every night!
Put ASMR in the titles, you'll get folks of people coming lol
Nicely done, Pete! I didn't sleep to this but it was very soothing and relaxing to listen to this. Also, Sonic Adventure 2 is my favourite game of all-time so a sequel is like a dream for me too!

I hope to see more!
feel more like getting more personal with Pete with the "soothing" voice. XD
I'm enjoying these.
I effing love this I watch TH-cam videos while falling asleep and to see one of my favorite youtubers doing this is awesome love it thank you Pete
This actually really put me to sleep! Thanks Prte this was really soothing. Id love it if you could talk about your favorite rpgs next time :)
This is insanely good made Pete! Falling a sleep to you talking about games can't be better :) Keep it up! :)
I really enjoy your videos and watch them everything. When you posted a video about this I thought it was a little strange but I really enjoyed it. The video had a awesome topic and actually put me to sleep. Can't wait for episode 2
JOIs' With Pete
Nice Pete. I hope you keep doing this series. ASMR videos get crazy popular.
I already watched your channel to relax. Now that you focus more towards the asmr part just makes it all the better
Great video Pete. I'm not affected by ASMR or anything but I always found your long videos very relaxing, to begin with. My problem is my brain being overstimulated with thoughts and anxieties before bed time, but I think a simple monologue about games might help sleep faster. I've tried music and podcasts and they don't help.
Great video Pete. Love the idea of this series. Felt almost like your own podcast. Please continue it!
Cool concept for a series. My only advice is maybe to use a pop filter for your mic. Pops are kinda disrupting imo.
Just my .02¢
This is a great series idea! I really hope you make more of these in the future! Gonna watch it for a second time and try to sleep.
Pete! This video was great. I listened to it last week and it put me to sleep in about 15 minutes. Granted, it was 2 a.m. and I was super tired, but it still was very relaxing to listen to. I listened to the rest of this tonight because I wanted to know all of what you had to say haha. Good work and I hope to see more of these.

At the very least it's much more comfortable to listen to than all the screaming that is all over the internet these days.
"HELLO AND WELCOME!!!! Today we're talking about STUFF, YEAHHHHHHHHH AND BE SURE TO LEAVE A COMMENT AND SUBSCRIBE BECAUSE YOLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I'LLSEEYOUINTHENEXTEPISODEOFTHISSHOWWHERE I.... TALKABOUTEVERYTHINGONTHEPLANETWITHOUTBREATHINGBYE" The. Horror.
Could not agree more
I like how this sounds. I have chronic insomnia and I have tried everything basically.... Except this. Will try tonight! You go Pete.
I've fallen asleep to Pete shopping on eBay more times than I care to mention...
Even though it didn't put me to sleep, I listened to and enjoyed the entire video. I would really love if you DO do one talking about Final Fantasy XI, as it was the first MMO I got into, and for a couple of years I really enjoyed and have some great memories from.

I like listening to shit like this at bed time, I find it very hard to get to sleep, so keep making these and I for one will keep listening
Would love to hear a long Final fantasy based Sleepin' with Pete :P
Stop at 0:55 best random pause I ever got XD Love the idea Pete I think it can be enjoyable sort of like a mini podcast.
Good amount of "tingles" and very relaxing. Definitely wouldn't mind seeing more ASMR-style vids from your end.
I used this video to help me fall asleep the last couple of nights. I've been having trouble sleeping for a long time now. I can't for more so can make a playlist of these.
I just listened to this at night while playing a game and it really was fun to listen to. Please do make more!
ASMR works for me when I just listen and not watch. I think you've done a really great job and that this will work for many 'tingle heads'. I'll certainly keep listening to your videos but not for ASMR reasons. I would need actual sounds to be present that mean something, other than just your voice.

You have got to make more of these. I've listened to it too many times while falling asleep.

I sleep with a fast blasting fan about 12" from my face. Not sure if it's the white noise but I've done it since I was a kid.
Very relaxing video about video games! Keep it up Pete I can't wait for episode 2!
dude give the people what they want! The people want episode 2!!
Wow, I really enjoyed this video! It was very relaxing to listen to. Please continue this series :D
yeah, I'd definitely like to see more videos in this series.
Great video pete, I did feel a bit tired near the end.
gaming oriented bedtime storytelling for grown ups. LOVE it, absolutely incredible idea! headphones are a necessity too.
I love this so much pete great vid! :)
I legit listened to this last night because I couldn't fall asleep and it put me out in like ten minutes. Good shit
Helped a lot!!! Been listening to your videos especially eBay game hunting while trying to sleep for a good 4 months now!
Not gonna lie brother. Listenimg to this on the drive to work this morning and almost rear ended the car in front of me because i completely zoned out.
Please make more of these, this really helped me get to sleep and it relaxed me.
You don't wanna know what I did during this video, Pete. You do NOT want to know.
His mind would splode? :)
i was just looking for something to listen to while i try to sleep and i saw this in my subscription feed..perfect!
I have pretty bad insomnia and this video definitely (and surprisingly) helped with that, so thanks! I had never even heard of ASMR before, but I will definitely be looking into it.
Fuck me, pete's doing asmr, I've been waiting 3 years for this day.
Pete I always thought you had a melodic voice, like watching a jellyfish swim.
Its like watching a stick of butter melt on a hot pan.
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
...
Not bad! I'm familiar with ASMR and have been a long time subscriber! You'll perfect your methods with XP! Well done, Pete!
Talking about games + Pete's voice = awesomeness
Great. :) Just remember to ignore the trolls, you can't please everyone.
Pete doing ASMR-ish stuff, this is pretty cool! Edit: Btw, those FFXI stories would be great to hear.
LMFAO! hahaha this is hilarious! The title alone makes me laugh! This is great work Pete!
Awesome video! I love listening to people talk as I go to bed.
One tip for sleep Pete is to not have action thoughts. Avoiding thinking about anything you have to do, like having to sleep - it triggers your brain to wake up. Instead, try to have perceptive thoughts, like about how comfortable you are.
Also, Tank Tank Tank (arcade) rocks. It was probably my favourite part of Royal Caribbean's Allure of the Seas.
O and great vid 10/10 would pass out again
You are back hurray! Nice video, always Pop in my ear phones and drift off to agg. This is similar, thanks
Been listenin' to AGG since ep 4. Always thought you had a very relaxing voice.
Love it Pete! Thanks! Super helpful
This series needs to continue. Excellent Job!!!
i love this, i allways use youtube movies to get me to sleep, lets see if you can be more soothing than finngamer!
This was great. Recommend making more of these and make sure you find interesting topics like this one.
I didnt think id like this, but having this playing in the background is really nice.
I actually listen to the AGG podcast to help me sleep so something like this is perfect!
what even
This is actually awesome. I usually listen to youtube vids before bed anyways - and i tend to stay away form ones where the dude is screaming like a desperate comedian. Just game talk without the cocaine, love it.
More sleepin with pete :-) more more
Hell yeah pete you have the perfect voice to pull off what your going for. You would make good late night radio. Just talking relaxed about video game news. Thats some stuff you should think about doing. (:
yes Id love a talk about FF11 in this style! good grief my sleep troubles are gone thanks to these 3 episodess
Amazing! I have one tip though- Maybe a little more whispery (just a tad) and maybe you can use more diction because that is a trigger for many people! :) Great job! Can't wait for more!
Great video Pete. Though, I'd argue that in terms of gameplay and design Sonic Advance is the closest to a true Sonic 4 we'll ever get. Things really started moving in a different direction with Sonic Advance 2 onward, but the first Sonic Advance is fantastic.

Woah, thanks Pete! I listened to this and woke up the next morning with a computer on my lap!
do more plz I loved this video and this series looks good and it helped me sleep and I love watching ur videos so if u can make more sleppin with Pete and yea ur my favorite TH-cam gammer ever :) :) :) :)
It's almost as if I found exactly what I was looking for to help me sleep. Wow. Thank you.
Great video! Watched until the end but not whilst trying to get to sleep. I'm sure this would do the trick though. A Final Fantasy 11 episode would be cool!
I really enjoy this format! The only thing I would suggest is a microphone diffuser to reduce the punch of the harder sounds. Otherwise, great video!
PLEASE PLEASE MAKE MORE.
Love this, always thought you'd be perfect for something like this
Wow just wow.... This is awesome, thanks for trying to help people with trouble sleeping. Amazing video definitely helped me sleep. Looking forward to more videos keep it going ☺
Hey Pete please make more of these. Really enjoyable!
perfect after a tough day, thank you!
2 Years ago I didn't sleep for a week straight...horrible existence that week was, working full time at the time too i was a mess, If i ever have that again this might be useful, It's working this video, very relaxing even though at first i thought 'what a load of bs'

Is this supposed to be ASMRish?
He have you a link and told you to click it to see a video that explains what this is so...
But yes, that's the point, because some people pointed out that he had a soothing voice and that he should do ASMR style stuff, so he figured he'd try it out
*****
ASMR channels has got to be one of the biggest growing channels on TH-cam at the moment. People are getting to 50k + subs within a month just by whispering in a mic lol.
Original There is more to it than that but yes, you're right. They get pretty big. lol
I watch ASMR vids all the time. Lol I was just asking if this was intended to be trigger ASMR.
I was sketchy at the concept of this, but I really like this video keep em coming.
This new idea is a dream come true! I hope enough people like this so we can get more.
Enjoyed this but recommend get a pop filter since the p's and b's are really loud compared to everything else. Also recommend figuring out a way to position the mic so it's not being held or moved much.
WERE IS EPISODE 3 COME ON PETER

Excellent relaxing video one of the best ASMR videos good job!! where's episode 2?
