General Gaming Seriously, who is in charge of Arcade 1Up's licensing?
Reputator replied to XxEvil AshxX's topic in The Spawn Point
Yeah it's pretty amazing what they are able to get. That being said, the new Turtles in Time is over $600 to pre-order, and it's the same as the $400 TMNT cabinet they had before just with new cabinet art. Soooo.... Eh. -
It's their loss! Also I can see Kevin Smith's remarks about He-Man and Skeletor not being sidelined as being in reference to the series as a whole. Part 1 was almost a prolong to setting up MOTU Skeletor. Prince Adam is injured but not dead by the end of the first five episodes, so he could appear as a more prominent character in Part 2.

Yeah I have to agree. Most of Disney's and Pixar's movies lately haven't had the visceral emotional discharge that some of their greatest films have. Although I think I liked Soul better than you did. Despite the parts that definitely sagged and the predictable plot points, the emotional core of appreciating life definitely hit hard for me, and I liked that quite a bit. Also I like jazz music. I also agree that Toy Story 3 was better than 4, but 4 was still better than it had any right to be, considering how unnecessary it felt when it was announced.

No one's going to tell you you HAVE to use Premiere but that's what I use. -

Sure I can offer some advice. I'd definitely get your front page looking good. Most people find you through your videos, but the next thing they'll look at is your YouTube page. Working on that actually involves a bit of pre-planning. Looks like you have a logo, so the next thing I'd think about is a color scheme of some sort. Pick two to three colors and a font you'll use. These colors and font will be part of the branding and design look of your channel, and you'll want to use them in each video you produce as your sort of "signature". You can come up with other things as well get across branding (phrases or gimmicks), but those colors and the font are fundamental. So using that, I'd come up with a clean but attractive looking banner. Here's the resolution template you'll want to use to make it. Then in the YouTube Studio under Customization, you'll want to upload the banner and get your video watermark going. Fill out your "Basic info", link to whatever social media you have, and this is also where you'll want to link to that blog you were talking about. Looks like your channel is a Let's Play style channel. So with that you gotta upload frequently, and you'll also want to do lots of series as well. Make liberal use of Playlists when you do video series. You may even want to come up with creative ideas for these series. "Minecraft Played Entirely With Golden Tools" or some whacky shit like that. If people see a 32 video series on a concept, they're more likely (in my experience) to marathon and get hooked to what you do. I wouldn't worry about livestreaming until you build up a pretty decent size audience. You got a good attitude about it though. The people hoping to strike it big are the people that burn out. If you're doing it to enjoy it, you can have some fun with it. Work hard because you're making something you want to be proud of. Don't expect to be rewarded for your hard work. You gotta be almost entirely self-motivated. It's SO easy to get fixated on views, especially if a video randomly gets picked up by the almighty algorithm. That's addicting. You'll want to figure out how to trigger that... except you can't because it's almost entirely random. Reason it's random is because people are fickle. One week your video about videogame chickens is a huge success. Next week you make a part 2 on almost entirely the same premise and it gets a fraction of the views. YouTube's algorithm chases people's interests, and people's interests are always in flux. So don't try to please it. Just try to please yourself. Content creation is mostly a masturbatory exercise!
