Now that I'm recording and editing two videos a day - I feel that I'll have to put off writing game reviews for the time being. There's just so much that goes into it. Everything must be taken into consideration. PC games record better with Bandicam while older SNES games record better with OBS studio. That is how it is on my end. If you record without a microphone the sound glitches out sometimes. Then you have to be careful to check that game is running on full screen.
One game had me rerecording the same level at least 4 times, because it showed a white screen throughout. If the video is high quality then Bandicam bugs out if you turn the game off before you stop the recording. I kept doing it by accident and had to play it exactly the same way + say the same damn stuff over and over, lol. Sometimes I sound annoyed due to this, so that's something else to keep in mind.
Also, I'm doing it the hard way because I only do live commentary. I time my jokes while playing and improvise on the spot. Unlike post-commentary people who always have some clever thing to say. Sometimes your character gets brutalized by enemies while you are saying something, forcing you to stop mid-sentence. It's a challenge but it feels more real to me. There were two instances where I had a brain fart and sat for 2 minutes trying to finish my sentence on the spot. Of course, that was edited out, lmao. Amazingly enough I rarely do "uhh" and "umm", but I do clear my throat a lot. That's even more editing time.
I have a video that is 2 and a half minutes long but took longer to edit than some of my 30 minute videos. It all depends on how much stuff you put into them.
