I've been making videos mainly for Call of Duty these last couple of months. Generally I try to use my better games while I do a voice over on the gameplay. Does the gameplay matter when you watch a video? Do you want to see high K/D ratios, or are you there more for the commentary? Any suggestions and input is much appreciated, I want to make sure to deliver the best content I can!

Any time I watch youtube gaming channel, I usually I watch both gameplay and commentary but I care less with K/D Ratio but have to be some entertain with good community and its smart idea you do pre-record.

I'm trying to give the best of both, I'm just trying to understand what the community likes. I want to live up to the standard

i'd say when I watch a mulitplayer commentary video. the things i enjoy watching in terms of gameplay are big streaks. so like you getting a rasp or something. while the thing that makes me clicking this kind of video is the title about the commentary. a wumbo combo of that is probably the best :)

I love getting the big streaks like that! I was actually one away from a nuclear a little over a week ago and I was pumped!

For Commentaries feel that a lot of people are there more for what is being said than shown. With that being said lots of people kind of care about the gameplay. Pretty much don't be dying every 5 seconds and you gucci

Think it much depends on the person. Some want to see a cool and epic kill video etc, others want comments and such. I do got a bit of fans for my Team Fortress 2 vids, though I suck at it the reason they like it is cause they think Im funny to watch. As well give people a chance to play and join for videos/streams, could do that too? Think many would love to get a chance for that. : )

It makes sense! I try to do my best to balance gameplay with commentary, but I put emphasis on my voice so I come out clearly

I definitely like playing with the people that watch my streams! But I know what you're saying, comedy is definitely a great feat when it comes to commentary personality

I am for the commentary, I don't mind the gameplay or KDs cause this year that just means your good at spawn trapping lol

For me it would be the gameplay, and how a person plays, wich weapons, perks, ect alongside with some good commentary :)

I know what you're saying. I find it a little boring when someone uses the same gun all the time. I like being versatile in what I use. That's why I watch TheMarkofJ. Dude's absolutely insane with every gun
