Exposing the Gaming Network Myth

In order to post gameplay videos on youtube, it is often said that you need a gaming network in order to accomplish this. One of the benefits of a network is instant monetization. But new changes appear to be taking that away from some networks and channels. Is it time to drop the gaming networks? Do you really need them? Is there really a Union for Gamers?

You see, none of that is really a problem. The problem is that there are people in the world that believe that recording themselves in random videos is considered "work" and believe they should be paid for doing it as a living. Not outside paving a road, or building a bridge, teaching a class, or serving food. No... playing a stupid video game in their room. And while there is some poor single mother out there that has to do 2 jobs at the same time just to make ends meet, some of these morons on youtube get double, if not triple what she is getting all by just playing a stupid game.

The problem is that people have forgotten about values. They are a lazy and selfish generation and I hope that their money train ends really soon and they are forced to get a real job like the rest of the normal world does.

you sound mad jealous of their youtube dollars. If I could get paid to game, I would. But it takes a special talent to produce content every day, edit your videos every day, and entertain your fan base every day, some people put a lot of work into their stuff and you just blowing all that off and saying they are undeserving of payment? nah, you are way out of line

He's talking about people like Ali-A. They just take an official trailer and upload it to their channel for money, which is completely ridiculous.

Jovanian 4213d ago

He never made that distinction.

But yes stuff that Ali-A does that is just regurgitating trailers is not deserving of payment.

Someone sounds very bitter? Regardless its only the same as making a TV show on a much smaller scale where, for the most part, its one person doing their gameplay, recording, editing and then jazzing up everything that goes with it.

I appreciate this way of doing business. I may even buy Lies of P now because of it. Where your money goes it's literally the only leverage we have as consumers to make a difference in an industry we all have an opinion about. Withholding it or spending it in the right places is about all we can do.

This is fire. Just like the game. I haven't gotten the dlc yet, but im really thinking about it. I just thought it ended great, I really want to see what they do with Dorothy. Will you fight the Tinman, Scarecrow, Cowardly Lion, the Wicked Witch and Wizard of Oz? Maybe Toto's with us, that'd be fire.

For the moment there, I thought Lies of P will be ported to Switch 2. XD Anyway, congratulations to Round8 and the whole development team.

Didn’t care for the game but love the company being good to the employees.
