    Default Getting feedback on a commentary?

    I did a game commentary which is on YouTube, but not many people have watched it. Can I post it on here for people to have a look at at give criticism?

    Do your worst.

    It would help if you could give advice on how to improve

    Aww you have a cute voice! D'aww. But hm a commentary is just that! Opinion! So really it's just what you think about a game and blah blah blah. Perhaps you could of wrote a more informative description in the video description and hm you need to speak a little louder. Also it's always better to write down what you plan on saying before you do it! But hm also you should think of starting a blog. I love blogs. To round this out I think your video is pretty average. Good job! Rating 1 - 10 is a 6.

    Well just play games that have just come out and are big hype factories! That's an easy way to get people's attention. People love to read reviews about new games and of course see videos and screenshots and see gameplay if possible. But though it really just depends on your tastes in games. It's always better to do things on your terms and do games you like! Don't waste time trying to please the YouTube community because frankly its a blatant waste of time. The YouTube community is as mature as a child around pornography.

    Personally i like live Commentaries and writing a script as a new commentator will be tough as you don't have a community to talk to or answer questions for.

    anyways i suggest figuring out what you like to do better Live or post recording then stick to that and eventually you will find a comfort zone where there isn't many breaks in speech and your just talking nonstop throughout the video.

    and don't do it for the wrong reasons do it because you like to do it not because you want subscribers, they will come with time just keep doing what you like. personally the commentators that ask or talk about getting more subscribers throughout a video are the ones i don't subscribe to.
    although keep doing a simple reminder at the end of a video reminding people to rate and subscribe, just don't be focused on how large your subscription number is.

    just let everything flow and be natural. prepare everything like scripts and the fillers. most importantly know your topic so that you could be more spontaneous
