pros - kerbal space program cons - annoying as fuck commentary
I would hope that since you've been here for a year that you would know you can/will get banned for self promoting. [highlight](User was banned for this post ("Backseat modding" - Craptasket))[/highlight]
Everybody does an Arnold impression. C'mon...
If you have to call your own gameplay funny, you're doing it wrong.
what is that attempt for a dialect sounds like a russian mario but worse
Well that was hard to watch.
Sticking a picture of Hitler on a helmet does not make a funny or informative thumbnail, unless you're trying to indicate that you're basically Hitler.
I don't want to be mean so I'll try to provide some suggestions- A lot of things that you see in funny gameplay videos are funny solely because the viewer already knows and likes that person. So, as a random dude on FP, you'll have to work a lot harder (well, not harder but smarter) to get the audience on your side. For starters, you should really try to come out of the gate strong. My first impression is that you're playing KSP, you've attached a couple things together, and are now going to go through the tutorial. Bleh, but I've read the comments so I'll stick around. Aaaand right away we're off to a bad start. You've proceeded by reading the tutorial text in a 'funny' voice- but the text itself isn't funny or interesting, so the only point of potential comedy is the voice- which, being that you aren't a famous internet personality, isn't going to do much for us. The first :54 seconds of your video has culminated in you reading tutorial text in an accent. Whew. Attempting to ironically poke fun of a shadow in the shape of a penis is going to have the opposite of the intended effect when it's now 1:40 in the video and you've mostly been reading text. The first mildly interesting thing that happens in the video is at 2:30 for christs' sake. Still, I admire that you haven't just snipped it yet, and I hope to see you keep trying to improve, if that's what you're into.
I didn't think it was that bad, but then again I can't tell since it's my own work. So points to: Annoying Stupid impressions No hitler, i got that one
Well you definitely don't want to respond to 8 different people with negative opinions of your video with "I didn't think it was that bad". "Boring as shit" should be at the top of your list. You should try to make sure that your footage itself is funny or entertaining first and foremost. Leave out the boring footage, and realize that talking should compliment the footage, not attempt to carry the burden of entertaining.

Like, I don't care about swearing (quite the opposite), but it feels extremely fake when you do it. Just be normal I guess. Literally one of the worst let's plays I've ever seen.
