Thread Starter 
Been always wanting to make my own little gameplay channel on youtube, and i decided to actually start one.

Now my problem are viewers/comments/likes. I understand its hard to get into the youtube scene, but any general hints on how to do it?
youtube channel

I only got a couple of videos, gonna start making more cs montages soon & just got into video editing.


What are some suggestions i can do to attract more viewers?

Montages are one way to earn name,
the other is to play the latest games w/ commentary.

The best way is just to create gameplays videos from games that recently came out. IF you have a good mic do commentary but if the mic sucks don't do it. (like if the voice isn't clear etc.)

I made two videos when GW2 came out = about 2k views, and when rift came out two videos I put up made 10k views. If I kept with these two games Id get a big following.
