Noah Caldwell-Gervais videos are just him talking over footage that is basically almost irrelevant to what he's saying. as far as i can tell he just uses whatever footage of him playing the game he has and doesn't do anything fancy like showing what he's talking about on screen. he gets $10,000 a month and has never been a Video Games Journalist Working For Kotaku Dot Com what i'm saying is, i do not think T Rog needs to worry about making stupid 4K video, at all

boz posted:Yeah but if you had enough people watching to make enough to live on it might not be the same story. That's why I'm glad you keepin it small There are definitely bigger time streamers who play whatever they want but yeah, a lot of bigger name ones play 1 game or 1 series with a gimmick and that's it. Must be ROUGH.

Ricky Gervais does gamer streams now because the edgy atheist market is tapped dry?

boz posted:Yeah, some of them seem like monkey paw wishes Sometimes I hop on twitch at like 7am EST when I get to work when it's quiet and I think about how cool it would be to get paid to play video games. And then I remember that these people got out of bed (or stayed up all night) to performatively play a game they play for 80 hours a week and I realize its...probably not that great.

A lot of streamers have sidegigs in the industry without being 100% dedicated to their channels. Many are actors themselves and play games to keep their audience engaged in between jobs, which seems to work out pretty well for them.

I put Tim Rogers’ 3 hour Pac-Man video on in the background while I farted around in Death Stranding all afternoon and I’m a changed man, now firmly on Team Tim.

Real talk if you wanna kick some money into a gamer Patreon that will never finish his projects please consider Ulillillia. He's on Patreon now. He is currently unable to work retail jobs like he was due to anxiety issues around Covid.

I still need to find a good SSD for my PS5. I hope to get one with an attached heatsink, but if I can only find a 980 how hard would it be to attach one?

Many are actors themselves and play games to keep their audience engaged in between jobs, which seems to work out pretty well for them. This is probably the best way to do it. It's never just one monetization stream, because being beholden to exactly one authority is a real good way to get dicked hard and deep. Entertainment and advertisement are the same exact thing, so the smart ones drop the pretense and just do that.

fridge corn posted:I mean theoretically speaking isnt YouTube/Patreon monetisation sort of democratising content creation/wealth generation in such a way that if you are from a low income background you are more likely to earn a decent living making videos than the traditional route of higher education -> high paying job? I've found myself in the same boat, now that I'm older. I was still young when YouTube (as a "career") started taking off, and I even had a pretty popular source of entertaining videos (Guitar Hero gameplay.) Of course, I didn't foresee literal children making actual life-changing money just by making YouTube videos, so I didn't stick to it. Nowadays, I respect the hustle, even if the top 1% are paid ridiculously more than the remaining 99%. I just hope the majority of these kids (or their parents) have the presence of mind to hire a financial advisor. Giving a million dollars to the average teenager is not bound to end up well for them 10 years later, when nobody is around to watch some stinky old adult talk about Roblox, that game that came out forever ago. You can make a lot of money on YouTube, but it's not a career (unless you just happen to break into that 1% -- go hog wild!) enojy fucked around with this message at 16:58 on Oct 25, 2021 |

Bust Rodd posted:lmao he looks like dogshit in RE7, like a GI Joe figurine, and like a normal, slightly heftier guy in the second one. What’s the issue? I actually like the way he looks in re7 it’s the closest to the original Chris from re1. I hate the insanely buff Chris from 5 and 6.

History Comes Inside! posted:Holy poo poo Ulillillia got an actual job around members of the public? He agreed a very good level of independence. Moved to Florida, got his own apartment, and became an employee at Wal-Mart who performed very well in store review metrics, even bought and fully paid off his own car. But when COVID came around he basically could no longer work because wearing a mask gives him crippling anxiety, not the way chuds pretend it's an infringement on their liberty, but the way that he actually has very high levels of anxiety and can't do some ordinary things like walking in front of a mirror
