For Consideration: Bells is thinking of a Let's Play.

Bells · 05-30-2010, 02:41 PM

So, this is an idea that i've been tossing around my head for a while now, and even though it's not a final "i'll do it!" thing yet, it's something i would like to consider. It's just, if i actually make one of these i would want to finish it no matter what. But i would also want to have people following it...

So, now i have all the Hardware and software i need for something like this. It's just a matter of trading some ideas to see if something "sticks"...

I want to work on a Gamecube Let's play. Something i've never done before. With games i've never played and/or never saw it being played before.

Help me out here, give me your opinion on some of these points:

1- What you guys prefer best? A Simple "watch me play" or a "Audience opinion shapes the game"?

2- What's would be best? Just gameplay footage, gameplay footage with Live narration or gameplay footage with audio commentary (or text commentary)?

3- In case of commentary/narration, what's less annoying? Just opinion of what's happening, thoughts and such... or other stuff like "giving link or Gordon a voice" and such?

4- should i edit the filler out Or give you the whole deal (like, Grinding sections, CG movies, Inventory Management...)

5- And finally, what's better? Go for the ending or Go for 100%?

Now, as for Size X Time... i prefer to count it for the long run, so, if i pick a game that goes around 30 hours to complete, and a youtube video is limited to 10min... that's 6 videos per hour. So, 180 Videos total. That's a LOT of stuff.

It can be done, i'm just not exactly sure on what my upload schedule would be... But i was thinking of staying at least 10 videos ahead of schedule at all times, so there will always be something to upload...

So, finally, let's talk games. I have a few already... and i'm waiting for a couple of other games, so i wouldn't mind going with the most voted... i just prefer to do it with less known titles.

1- Lord of the Rings : The Third Age
2- Gotcha Force
3- Geist
4- Summoner
5- Custom Robo

I'm also open to suggestions!
