I'll say right now, I've always prefered channels with consistantly high content to channels with a consistantly high ammount of video output. Whilst I'm very happy that we may be getting more better made videos (I feel your content has been particularly well made recently) I'd also really love it if the quality didn't have to be sacrificed for the sake of sheer output.
Seconded; there are too many TF2 channels that are just rambling over gameplay footage, I will sub to anyone that makes TF2 content but rarely watch their videos if there is no effort. Eg: SpikeyMikey - subbed but never watch. LazyPurple - subbed and will watch each of his videos several times.
@@burnybob8368 It's just generally the type of videos I prefer to watch. The best channels find a pretty good middleground (eg. ScottTheWoz and Tom Scott) but there's only one or two channels I subscribe to that make content without a script
*Thank you* again to everybody who continues to support me and this channel despite super infrequent uploads at the moment! Knowing that there is still an audience here waiting for me is for sure the main reason in me still coming back after all this time If you want to catch me when I live stream in the coming days and weeks then drop a follow over on Twitch www.twitch.tv/tf2casperr
It hasn't been *that* long! My last video was August 3rd :P Unless you are only here for TF2 in which case I did one about Portal inspired items in game in April :)
Not a decision I made lightly (as I said, I've been trying to make this work for literal years). Combination of being in a decent job with understanding owners and having reduced spending due to lockdown meant now was a good a time as any! Once the world starts picking up again it might not be viable to stay like this, but for now it is certainly a nice bonus to my week
Pretty good standpoint, you know what your aduience want. Even though i think your general views are pretty strange to some kind, the one Video about Gaming in general blew up in views and the next one barraliy gets 5k views.
How many views a RUclips video gets feels almost random. I created the first "Where Are They Now?" video about TF2 inspired games and it blew up and is at 500,000 views despite being really quite a simple video that just lists some releases dates and active player numbers. The second video I did in that series was made focusing on games that the viewers of the first video requested and, whilst it has done well relative to my channel, didn't get half as many views as the first one. The third one I did recently is literally my *highest average watch time video EVER* (a stat which RUclips tells creators is an important one) and it's not even at 3,000 views. "Steam Sale Syndrome" was another generic gaming video I did which blew up, so I made "Free Game Fever" trying to emulate the same style of SSS and has comparatively only had 1/5 views. And then on the other side of the coin, I did another fairly quick and nothing-special video recently "Portal Items In TF2" and it did extremely well! The problem is as a creator that *I have very little idea why some did well and others didn't*. Is the editing better/worse? The script? The thumbnail or title? As you can see, I have tried to make videos similar to others which have performed well, but it seems the magic formula is a bit deeper than that. Or maybe part of being a successful RUclipsr is being able to consistently recognise what makes a video "good".
I did try it before, but it became awkward to maintain because I did upload often and there wasn't that much to talk about, almost every day someone would show up and just say something like "wow it's totally dead in here" and that sort of thing. Maybe if the channel gets bigger or my uploads get more frequent I will think about it again :)
Hey dude I’ve got a black rose which I want to sell on my steam account but it non marketable or tradable and yet I see other people selling there’s... why is this and is there a way I can get it marketable or tradable?
I believe there was a couple of bugs years ago that made certain Black Roses tradeable but those bugs are long fixed. Only those which were made tradeable back then remain so I'm afraid. But that's probably why the prices are so high now!
I won't :) I promise I will only make stuff I enjoy! Whilst I don't really play TF2 very often, I still love the universe hence why I will be making lore videos and not live commentaries. Glad to know that there is support no matter what I make
Also just to clarify that I didn't go down to 4 days for any YT specific reason, but just for personal stress reasons really. But having that extra day is something that will quite possibly end up benefiting my creative output is all :) Hope you are well, brother
@@Casperr Just pulling your leg :) Yeah, I want 4 week days when I'm able aswell. Seems like a much better work/life balance. Maybe we'll play some soon, I'n playing tf2 again occationally ;)

Thanks for the kind words! And nice RUclips meta username

creators making videos at their own pace, on topics they actually care about? you love to see it

Man it's been 11 months since Casperr uploaded a vid and I was getting concerned it's good to know your fine and will continue to upload Tf2 content.
It hasn't been *that* long! My last video was August 3rd :P Unless you are only here for TF2 in which case I did one about Portal inspired items in game in April :)

@@Casperr The algorythim is quite a mysterie.
why am i here. i dont play this game anymore
i barely do, but tbh i stil follow a lot of the content creators i used to watch (many of which barely upload anymore) and idk why
Hopefully my future non-TF2 content will still be something you'll enjoy!
I think it would be a good idea for you to make a discord server
