You've become a personality. I don't even play wow anymore but I watch every single of your videos - even the guides. Do whatever you wish to do and slam in some of your personal humor and personality we'll be watching.
I think it's a great idea to try and expand your channel through Twitch or whatever means necessary outside of youtube, but personally both myself and my friends are so preoccupied with work and school that we don't have time to ever even watch a twitch stream for more than a few minutes. The beauty of youtube is that it's so personal and easy to create a name for yourself doing literally anything: making guides, voicing opinions, discussing upcoming content, giving tips, doing skits, showing off cool features of something, or even doing collabs with other youtubers. You can choose from one or many of these options, plan and record your content exactly to what you have in mind, and then through a combination of unique individual character and editing, conjure up a 5-10 minute video that conveys whatever message you want to the world in your own personal way. Whenever you think your out of ways to improve or grow your youtube channel, never give up but instead try something new and innovate a little to bring people the content they are used to in an entirely different format of videos. I like Twitch, but I'd be lying to say I haven't lost several of my favorite youtubers to it, who almost exclusively stream on there now 24/7. I understand the temptations of being able to stream whenever you want, do whatever you want, and have almost no worry about what direction to take, since the only direction twitch truly goes in is linear. It's hard to do anything more than put up a facecam, talk, and play a game for a few hours, because any chance you'd have at making a meaningful statement or giving good advice would simply be lost in the sauce at a certain part of the stream that many people would never even return to or simply forget altogether. Think of it like taking a once-in-a-lifetime video or picture on snapchat rather than instagram lol, no matter how important it may be, it'll just pass by and ultimately be forgotten. Moral of the goddamn story, if you're gonna use twitch, use it wisely and don't fall into the slump of mindlessness I've seen happen to other youtubers. People I knew that once made pretty helpful and thought-provoking content on the youtube have ended up in a stint of mumbling a few words a minute over a PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds stream for 5 hours a day every monday-friday. I've always thought media content should follow a path of "quantity vs. quality". Where on youtube it's up to you to decide which one of those gets more attention, I find twitch follows the path of "infinite quantity vs. almost no quality" But still, this doesn't have to be the case if you have a firm grasp on what you're doing. Anyhow hope you didn't mind my two cents, best of luck Zack in whatever direction you want to take Asmongold :)
I know this might not be much help in what direction you want to go, but I watch pretty much any type of video you put out, just because your fun and interesting to watch and I'll stick around no matter what you want to do with the channel.
Vibvih Vxxknc ikr ! it doesnt really matter what lol ... id even watch our boi troll rp realms or whatever the fuck. Whatever he does is just entertaining
I've watched all your videos for years. I'll continue to watch them either way your channel goes. I'm just happy I can finally use my sub with twitch prime. I've saved it for over a fucking year.
Gratz on the Partnership my Bro and big thumbs up for bringing Zack out, to deal with the srs stuff! I think people love u, regardless of direction, coz of ur personality. No mater where you go, Asmolgolderinos will follow! :D
Couldn't agree more. Love the UA-cam for more worked content rather than casual content. Really like the twitch aspects of things for day to day/ casual content.
Make a poll to see what kind of content people want. Personally, the guides you made in the past helped me LOADS. I've done stuff in WoW that I would of never done thanks to your videos. Recently the Arms Warrior Mage Tower challenge guide you made helped me get through it in 30 minutes. I liked your silly guides to dumb elitest stuff in the past, like the How to Transmog or How to be elitest, How to get a Girlfriend in WoW. Just goes to show you don't need amazing editing skills to make good videos, if the content is there. :)
Guides were the reason I found asmongold years ago. There was some quest achievement I wanted to do, and didn't know how to, he helped me out. Fan ever since.
Hey man, first of all I appreciate Everything you do. You are an Awesome guy an many of us wow-players-who-play-an-mmorpg-for-more-than-12-years can identify with you and have a place to be. thats awesome and I want to have that for next 12 years aswell. very personal I love the storys you can tell from that many years of experience, it fascinates me and makes me think and reflect on the all the things that I achieved and experienced aswell. Man, fucking giving the rare tusk of mannoroth to mcconnell .. that video brought tears to my eyes. most epic thing ever. second: looking at the views of your vids it reveals the following conclusion: If your Primary Goal is to reach as much people as possible, do "how to" guides. how to get gold, how to level fast, how to etc.etc.etc. I learned so much from you just by watching how you play, it helps out a lot. Hope that this does help you. Hve a good one, looking forward to new stuff form you!
You're guides ARE amazing, but I do find your more vlog style vids the more watchable, and ones that I can actually watch repeatedly. Congrats about Twitch however XD You've definitely earned it. I think it boils down to what you feel you would feel like doing. Whatever you decide I'll still end up watching!
Hey man, really glad to hear that you're finally taking the next step in your career, you're the only streamer I have ever wanted to keep a recurring sub with just for the sake of supporting you. I'm really looking forward to what the future will bring. Keep on keeping on friend :) Quick Edit, In terms of content I feel like you should make the content you enjoy the most, and then maybe balance it out with hot topics that people want to hear your take on, like when you covered nostalrius and things in that ballpark. I feel like content with a lot of passion and love behind it is enjoyable to a certain degree regardless of the topic at hand. I can't speak for everyone but personally I watch your stuff because I think you're eloquent and usually very educated and involved in the things you talk about which brings a lot of energy to the videos. Wasn't such a quick edit after all
im sub a few years now cuz i saw one of your video explaining something and you were real! a real person talking about the stuff im interested in and not crapping about the neighbours dog. if i can watch/listen your streams everyday because i do enjoy the moral explains you make during those hours even if i do not agree with you all the time, just your rhetoric is exciting. i do not care and i do not give advice how to change your channel. but listen to this: it is all up on you if you feel you can do it better/other way just do it. i myself moved 2000 miles from home to a country i "just" spoke the language with my wife she did not at all and now both doin fine. trust in yourself, dont be scared of new stuff. if its out of your comfort zone do it offline try it out if it fits you do it live. have a nice weekend and keep big dicking!
Honestly, I don't even play WoW right now, but I still watch your videos. Why? Because your videos allow me to keep tabs on what is going on in WoW, and they are entertaining, logical and funny. When I did play WoW, I found your guides to be very helpful and were a great resource to go back to when I needed help completing achievements & personal in-game goals. With that said though, I believe your biggest draw is your personality. I think a lot of people identify with you (as a 26y/o, skinny white kid from Texas, I know I certainly do). You say what we are thinking, and put into words our thoughts and concerns about a game we all enjoy and love. You are not afraid to be yourself, to be self-deprecating, or afraid to admit your faults or to be overly critical about WoW. You are reflective and straightforward, you don't not trying to deceive us into believing you are something that your aren't, and you always make your intentions well-known and clear. Ultimately though, you got to this point because of the choices and decisions that you decided on yourself. If you have a gut feeling towards going one way with your channel, I would go with it. If that decision doesn't work out, roll with the punches and try something else. I don't think any of your subscribers feel like you owe them something, or it is your obligation to produce certain material. Just produce quality material and don't be afraid to take a risk with trying something new. At the end of the day, I would still watch regardless of the material you were covering, as long as you remained Zach/Asmongold.
I've watched your videos for a while, now. I like both types: I like the daily "in-the-life" vids, and I like the guides. There have been quite a few times that I've searched out your guides on things, specifically, because I know you give good information without a bunch of fluff like some other content creators do. If I HAD to pick one or the other, I'd probably pick your daily in-the-life vids, with some twist. You could do your vids about what you're doing in the game, and if you're doing something that would benefit from a guide that would help a good portion of your viewers, tell us a guide is coming and make one on it! I think you can do both and be happy, but I'd focus on your videos and streams that you enjoy doing. Making guides will be enjoyable, too, but you can make those as a side-thing while still enjoying whatever you want in the game and all of your fans enjoying it with you. Best of luck going forward! Congratulations!
Dude, your guides are the best i've found there are "better" channels that put out more content and go into massive detail and backgrounds and lore, but you get right to the issue and its nice quick and simple. I'd say you should do the guide monthly for things you have a passion for, and make videos for whatever you want.
Your solo guides are what brought me here. I use them all the time when I go back to old content. That drive you were talking about in your video is not something everyone has, so when you do those guides you are helping people like me who don't have that drive. But I enjoy all your videos. Just do what keeps ya happy. Grats on the sub button.
I love all your videos, from you guides to your v-logs...vlogs lol... You are very knowledgeable and wise about the game and in some aspects of life. You could just do one vlog and one guide a week, that way you wont be so overwhelmed with twitch and youtube. Or perhaps just do one guide a month since it take the most time, and maybe 2 vlogs a week? or perhaps do one week guide, other week 2 vlogs, then alternate accordingly. that way there is some variation to your work and product, and also gives you a goal. Sadly, I do not watch twitch regularly because I work a lot. If i were to watch the vods of the streams, it would be a lot of content and I would just like the summary or highlights, the cut version. Thats why i like youtube compared to twitch, I do put twitch on occasionally to just watch something if I am bored or about to sleep. But congrats on the sub button!
Grats on the sub button. Seems like a natural evolution for your channel based on all the work you have been putting in. I like all your videos and watch them all. Go in the Direction the benefits you and your family the most. Either way your content is going to be touching people...no homo.
I'll try to give you an "Italian's community pov" as far as i can. Nearly everyone that follows you from here, is an expert player who seeks to find some kind of comparison between what he does and what you do. That partially explains (if the italian sample could be considered an actual sample of your audience), why detailed guides you did, took less views by your subs. I think we are mostly composed of ppl that actually play the game since a lot of time, and what we like in your videos is this sort of dialogue with you, like we can do even with a guildmate, with nearly our same experience and point of view about the game and each one of his states. Anyway, i'll follow you prescinding of what you do, and wish you good luck and good work on what you're about to do.
Your gym class analogy really hit head on for me. Love your channel and your videos and wish I had time to stop in your stream more. As some one still fairly new to this I hope to one day be 1/4 as good as you are with the drive and passion you have for what you do. It's a really good story where you came from and where you are now. Hard work and dedication. Much respect.
Your guides are awesome! There are a few others that make them though. Perhaps if you are getting requests for a guide on something you can see if another UA-camr has a really good video on it and link to that video. If you cannot find a good guide on it then you make the video. Since the guides don't bring in as many views as your other videos you may not lose out there and can still be helpful and have time to create different content that does get a lot of views instead guides that have already been made well. I think what your audience loves is your personality so no matter the content if you're talking WoW your subscribers are going to be happy. The fact that you got a partnership shows that you're already doing a great job. Just keep doing what you've always done and try not to stress too much on it. The internet loves you!
Wow, your vids have always been great, especially the guides, that aside, I think I have a new level of respect for you. It's not easy to be as candid as you just were and just lay out all the cards on the table. Congratulations on your partnership, can't wait to see how far you can take it in the future.
True shit bro. I understand 110% put everything into what you do no matter what it is. I'm the exact same way. Really respect you man, watch all your videos and catch your streams whenever I can Congrats on the partnership bro!
I usually do not watch your guide videos but ones that i find interesting such as your video "a great way to quickly farm legendaries and legionfall reputation" really helped as a returning player. That said, my favorite videos by you have to be the Iron man challenge ones; i personally enjoy your personality and agree with your opinions but i really enjoyed that series for what you made it not just the series itself
I have 6 characters I play, the lock and DH the most fun for me. A lot of what you do is going places and doing things I just won't. Don't have the time, not in a guild that's doing it anymore ect. So, it's fun to watch what you do and live vicariously. I do use some of your guides to get better, they do help.
You really don't ever make bad videos. I just like the frequency at which you made them previously. It's pretty comforting having something to look forward to almost everyday of the week.
You have an excellent plan. Continue to do videos when you can because they're awesome and fill the gaps for me. And as for Twitch I'll see you there as well. Best of luck in all of your endeavors
As far as your two main choices of basically doing a "Weekly Reset" that Taliesin and Evitel do or doing the dungeon guides that I've not seen anyone else do better / more informatively I'd say toss in hard on the guides and not worry too much about immediate return as those seem to be things that are good even in future expansions in a lot of cases. Best of luck whatever you decide though, and I'll be watching here on YT -- don't get over to Twitch much anymore these days unfortunately although being a partner is super huge and gratz on that too :)
I rarely tune into the streams but I love your vids, even the ones on your personal channel. Wish I had real advice for yuh, but naw, same ol' thing you likely already hear often enough. Just do what you enjoy. I find your videos to be very helpful. Peace and much love man. Shout-out to all the Warrior mains. FTA!
All I can say it that the very first video that got me engaged in your channel was the how to be an elitist one, probably you're funniest one to date imo. Never stopped loving your channel though. Love the silly funny videos as well as hearing opinions. Guides are great as well as I have used them (don't play WoW anymore atm) but I can see the value in them. Hope to play WoW again somewhere in the future as well.
Grats on the sub button. I personally don't generally need guides, but I still tend to watch your stuff regardless. I think showing what you're up to is a good direction though, just because I imagine you wouldn't run out of material as much. In the end, do whatever you like the most / generates the most ad revenue for ya. xD Stay chill.
I feel like u should do videos about what ur doing in the game aswell as some guides when u feel u want too, ur guides helped me alot but also watching u just roam around doing other things is amazing too, keep it up Zack!
For me it all started at the old school guides for the raid achievements in Wotlk, those 20+ minutes long videos on where you just explain everything in detail. Your channel was small, but you were putting out such amazing content i just had to subscribe :P Nowadays, i think its important for to have fun while making your videos and entertain the ppl that watch them and at the same time, when you have some cool tips and tricks, feel free to share them and make vids about it! Views are always kinda tricky, take Pewdiepie for example, around 57mill subs and around 3/6 mill views on his vids, thats about 10%.... Not sure why and how, but it happends everywhere. I think the most inportant is for you to have fun, and the 'like bar' looks like a blue lightsaber, little dislikes and a load of likes! Thats how you know the ppl like your content :) Keep in your unique style of fun and vids and you should be good!
You are my go to content creator on UA-cam. I check your channel first for new videos, and when I have nothing else to watch, I'll go through your old videos for something to listen to while I'm doing other things. I don't even play WoW anymore, but I've always found it enjoyable to hear your humor, listen to your advice, and vicariously experience things from the game that I never got a chance to see for myself. I'm excited for more from you, even if it's esoteric stuff that will never apply to me, because your videos are always interesting regardless. Keep doing what you do, and I'll keep watching you gladly.
I love your guide videos a lot. I watch all of your videos either way. As long as you make videos, I'll be watching. Congratulations on your Twitch deal
I don't play anymore dabbled in some legacy vanilla and tbc stuff earlier this year, but I still sub because 1) I usually find my thinking in line with yours 2) I can stay in touch with the game I played for so long at a distance through you. I'm 41.....if you want to know what real gym class is like let me know. Take the channel where your instincts say to take it, your instincts will be correct not the responses and not what you have overthought.
Ive been watching you for years. Your activity guides and Preach's class guides are two of the major catalysts for me still playing warcraft. Congrats on the sub button. I think that you have a big enough fan base that you could actually do both. Ive been watching you on twitch lately. and the content is all good and stuff. but I dont think many people (certainly not me) are watching to see you kill your 105,568th rare on Argus. We watch for your commentary and entertainment value. Even if its in the background while were playing a game. or whatever. I think maybe you could stream your activities while youre making the content for the guides youve always put on youtube. you could even stream your process of editing and bloopers during that process. People watch twitch as a form of entertainment but go to youtube as a form of entertainment and also of reference. You can go back and pause, reverse, skip etc through a youtube video on how to get whatever mount or achievements. Find a way that you can do both. Making those guides and videos can compliment your streaming content. mix it up. youre one of the biggest warcraft streamers. Essentially, I feel like you can do whatever you want. People watch SodaPoppin sit at his desk and buy shirts on Amazon. your content is much more informative than anything he has ever put out. Stay entertaining, stay controversial, keep informing. Compliment your Streaming with your video production. ps- Incorporate Links to CatDany's Page into your UA-cam info/header to keep your viewership happy. Partner with him and make it simple for people visiting your page to know that they can easily catch the "best of " videos. Either way, Ill keep watching.
Dude, if I try to do something and I can't figure it out all I have to do is type the thing and asmongold into youtube and then I just do it. Your guides are the best ones. easy to follow and on point +entertaining
As a new player to WoW, the route of making guides is basically the dream for me. You're my favourite WoW streamer, and the only one that doesn't make me go ResidentSleeper, and learning more about the game while enjoying more content from my favourite WoW personality sounds really good. I hope you figure everything out Asmon.
To be honest, I don't see why you couldn't keep the semi-mixed format of the channel you've had so far. The fun bantz and you doing you is what I subbed for, so that's always a safe bet. The guides you've put out have been awesome and very helpful indeed. So why not keep that balance? I understand it might be challenging to prioritize at certain points in time which type of video would be best received, but at times like that I think it's helpful to realize that there's no pre-determined optimal path for you to take your channel through. Make inventory of your energy levels, your personal level of engagement with each option you have, and make a survey of your audience's preferences through a strawpoll or a vid like this. :) From my point of view it doesn't make much sense to make a big, hard-line decision on producing only one type of content over another. I'd rather try to evaluate on a case-by-case basis whether the type of guide you plan on making would be interesting for the majority of your fans or not. Even class specific stuff is fun to watch despite the fact I don't main a warrior! TL;DR: DON'T FRET OLD MAN! You do you, you da only tr00 azm0nb4llz! Don't fix what ain't broke! ;)
a guide or two a week along with maybe a stream highlights video once a week or so would be an awesome combo for the channel and would cover a lot of the stuff people want to see i believe.
I found your channel from searching for a guide back in MoP. The guides were clear concise and bullshit free! That's what i loved. I followed the guide and i got the job done. I subbed, became a fan and i cant wait to see more content. The entertainment and information you provide us is pure asmonGOLD!
I'd like to see your guide videos again. But if you also want to crank out a couple videos of chat, maybe cut together highlights from twitch sessions too.
Sounds good man best of luck! Got the best vids around I wouldn't worry to much on the views like you were talkin about if others are like me when I take a break from WoW I kinda just fall out of the videos as well but have always came back to your channel when I come back to the game. You got good content man that's for sure
Congratz on twich partnership! Honestly I like most of your guides, but I tend to tune in for your take on the news and things going on in WoW. I don't always agree with your take, but getting a different point of view always helps and is appreciated. I would like some basic guides from time to time, things like farming currencies, raiding, and those kind of things. I honestly view less ptr coverage but that is only because I rather see most of it while it is live. Anyway, that is all the feedback I have, and congratulations again :D
In terms of information and reach, guides are a good thing to start on. If you think someone might get stuck on something, or you're leveling an alt and noticed something that has only been said a few times on video, make something about it. I don't fault you for having less videos, maybe cause I only recently subbed, but known of your existence when Draenor was about to end, but you are funny. I'm a bit worried twitch might not have the same humor as you, but you're a good guy to have around. One more thing, you do a lot with Transmog, and some of us are just lost as heck on it, so maybe there's something.
My suggestion is: Just be youself. I started watching your videos simply because i enjoy your personality. Just keep being you. About the videos : Keep your usual serious guides / Overviews, but if possible bring back the old fucking around kind of videos. Like the sgit you had on your old channel, irl stuff like Asmongold's lair etc. Congrats on your sub button and good luck my nigga.
Guide vids are my personal favorite. However there are only so many you can do. Wrath, Cata, Pandaria, Dreanor. Each has a dungeon and raid glory. Once there done there done, so eventually guide material will run out. It's probably a good idea to space it out. I am going between your cata/dreanor dungeon hero guides now.
Happy for you man! Been watching since, "How to be an elitist in WoW.' If I were to give any suggestions it would be: 1. Create a Patreon, the stress of needing money does a lot to stifle the creative process, you have a big audience here that may not ever watch twitch, give them the ability to contribute to the content they watch. 2. Keep posting the guides for achieves (mounts, meta, etc.), tips and tricks, and the occasional 'week in warcraft' type of video. 3. Repost unique and exciting stream highlights (getting a rare mount + reaction; first kill on end boss, etc), but not reposting the whole stream or hours at a time. 4. Reflections about the state of the game, future of the game, etc. If you did these things, I would be as happy as ever. But above all of this, do what makes YOU happy, because in the end that's all that matters.
Honestly if you enjoy making the video you upload i'll enjoy watching it, doesn't matter what type of video it is. You wanna pump out 5 guides in a week and then upload some montage or whatever the next week i'll watch it, you got here doing what you like to do, so continue to do that and we'll be here to support you!
I feel you mah boy. I have to tell you that I've laughed and learned a lot with your videos, specially the "funny" ones. Remember that "How to Correctly Play Arms Warrior in Patch 6.2" video? That was the reason I suscribed to your channel, and that's what I would like to see from you in the future, that sense of humour you bring us out in nearly every video. Keep going forward friend and never give up, there's people out there you can't see that are cheering you up.
I love your guides man! Quick, informative and straight to the point annnnnd entertaining to boot! Would love to see you post your streams on UA-cam too!
Change can be scary man. But look at how well you're doing. You have these subs and views because people love your content. If people are upset it's because they can't get enough of you. You rock. Your videos rock. I'm happy with both options, trust your gut, it got you this far :)
I think you should keep doing the guides and stuff, even if it is on stream. Just make a VoD of it and put it on UA-cam. I know personally I would still watch it no matter how long it is or if it is scrambled. A guide is a guide. Keep doing you man!
Just subbed because of this FYI. Your videos especially the challenge mode videos are incredibly beneficial and helped a lot. I've watched probably hundreds of your videos over the years and the ones I enjoy most are the Guides and Transmog competitons. I mean the mount farming vids are great but I'm not one to enjoy watching someone try hard and not get something, still watched them though, just for the showmanship. Guides walkthroughs and breakdown tutorials are really solid keeps me coming back time and time again. Keep up the solid vids man, and keep being our boi! Asmongold!
Gratz on the sub button. As for youtube I'd say go for the guides, this is the content I enjoy the most, but at the end of the day guides or no guides, I'll watch every video you put out.
Subbed originally bc of the achievement guide videos which were excellent. Be a shame if you stopped them, but you do you. I'll keep watching. And gratz on twitch!
I miss the "old" style guide videos, they are the reason I subscribed, even if I didn't watch every one the ones I did use I watched over and over, I memorized them to help me level faster or make gold or whatever, I would like you to do guide videos. Thank you so much for everything you have done to help wow gamers, I know bliz hasn't always appreciated your opinions and the tips and tricks you gave us, but I sure did! Thank you!
Bring the guides and real talk videos! You hooked me with your guides and real talk videos. How to be an elitist. Solo achievements. The guild management ones. Just do what got you here man. That's what most of us subbed for in the first place because your passion shines through in those videos.
Guides bruh. I think a good combination of guides and the videos you've been putting out recently would be quite entertaining. Anyway thanks for all the work you've put in. Good shit my dude
Do what makes you happiest long term. That is my best advice for you. As far as what I like to watch from your videos, honestly it is a balance between the strategies and the more relaxed fun videos like the mount contests. But in the end, find what makes you most happy for the long term.
This reminds me of people who can't decide which class they want to play. Often times worry about which class would be most beneficial to the raid, which would be easiest, which is OP AF, and whatever else. At the end of the day, do what you love and that passion will bring you to a much higher level.
Sound great man, big grats on the sub button!
BELLULAR OUT :rage:
CatDany [Asmongold Highlights]
Wow. Much original. Very funy.
Love supporting this channel and stream and will in the future!!!!
He's wearing a suit jacket....shit's gettin real
questing sucks
I dont play WoW anymore but i still watch you and support you, keep going forward
Ahmed Dan same for me xD he is funny grumpy streamer

Soulsreaper
fuck ahhahaha 2005 called they want you back
runescape was even shit when it first came out let alone in todays age lol
You've become a personality. I don't even play wow anymore but I watch every single of your videos - even the guides.
Do whatever you wish to do and slam in some of your personal humor and personality we'll be watching.
this is so true
I'll echo mjsime; same here!
Me too, I enjoy watching his stuff even I havent played WoW since WoD
foreal your peronality and humor is awesome and hilarious.
Well said, I dont play either, but i still watch asmongold, coz of personality. Even if he changes a game, I think people will keep watching. :)
I think it's a great idea to try and expand your channel through Twitch or whatever means necessary outside of youtube, but personally both myself and my friends are so preoccupied with work and school that we don't have time to ever even watch a twitch stream for more than a few minutes. The beauty of youtube is that it's so personal and easy to create a name for yourself doing literally anything: making guides, voicing opinions, discussing upcoming content, giving tips, doing skits, showing off cool features of something, or even doing collabs with other youtubers. You can choose from one or many of these options, plan and record your content exactly to what you have in mind, and then through a combination of unique individual character and editing, conjure up a 5-10 minute video that conveys whatever message you want to the world in your own personal way. Whenever you think your out of ways to improve or grow your youtube channel, never give up but instead try something new and innovate a little to bring people the content they are used to in an entirely different format of videos.
I like Twitch, but I'd be lying to say I haven't lost several of my favorite youtubers to it, who almost exclusively stream on there now 24/7. I understand the temptations of being able to stream whenever you want, do whatever you want, and have almost no worry about what direction to take, since the only direction twitch truly goes in is linear. It's hard to do anything more than put up a facecam, talk, and play a game for a few hours, because any chance you'd have at making a meaningful statement or giving good advice would simply be lost in the sauce at a certain part of the stream that many people would never even return to or simply forget altogether. Think of it like taking a once-in-a-lifetime video or picture on snapchat rather than instagram lol, no matter how important it may be, it'll just pass by and ultimately be forgotten.
Moral of the goddamn story, if you're gonna use twitch, use it wisely and don't fall into the slump of mindlessness I've seen happen to other youtubers. People I knew that once made pretty helpful and thought-provoking content on the youtube have ended up in a stint of mumbling a few words a minute over a PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds stream for 5 hours a day every monday-friday. I've always thought media content should follow a path of "quantity vs. quality". Where on youtube it's up to you to decide which one of those gets more attention, I find twitch follows the path of "infinite quantity vs. almost no quality" But still, this doesn't have to be the case if you have a firm grasp on what you're doing.
Anyhow hope you didn't mind my two cents, best of luck Zack in whatever direction you want to take Asmongold :)
I know this might not be much help in what direction you want to go, but I watch pretty much any type of video you put out, just because your fun and interesting to watch and I'll stick around no matter what you want to do with the channel.
Vibvih Vxxknc ikr ! it doesnt really matter what lol ... id even watch our boi troll rp realms or whatever the fuck. Whatever he does is just entertaining
I've watched all your videos for years. I'll continue to watch them either way your channel goes.
I'm just happy I can finally use my sub with twitch prime. I've saved it for over a fucking year.
I found that out today lol oh well. Worth it.
Gratz on the Partnership my Bro and big thumbs up for bringing Zack out, to deal with the srs stuff!
I think people love u, regardless of direction, coz of ur personality.
No mater where you go, Asmolgolderinos will follow! :D
It's cool how other youtubers comme to congratulate him! I watch you and bellular too
Focus on boosting Twitch, and do 1 video per week on UA-cam. Rotate guide, sarcastic comedy, vlog and wow news. Keep up the great work and grats!
Sound advice, I agree.
Couldn't agree more. Love the UA-cam for more worked content rather than casual content. Really like the twitch aspects of things for day to day/ casual content.
Make a poll to see what kind of content people want. Personally, the guides you made in the past helped me LOADS. I've done stuff in WoW that I would of never done thanks to your videos. Recently the Arms Warrior Mage Tower challenge guide you made helped me get through it in 30 minutes. I liked your silly guides to dumb elitest stuff in the past, like the How to Transmog or How to be elitest, How to get a Girlfriend in WoW. Just goes to show you don't need amazing editing skills to make good videos, if the content is there. :)
Holy shit it´s freaking jaraxxus on youtube
Guides were the reason I found asmongold years ago. There was some quest achievement I wanted to do, and didn't know how to, he helped me out. Fan ever since.
"This is not a stage performance. This is not Asmongold, this is just Zack"
MY WHOLE LIFE IS A LIE
guides. I miss them.
Hey man,
first of all I appreciate Everything you do. You are an Awesome guy an many of us wow-players-who-play-an-mmorpg-for-more-than-12-years can identify with you and have a place to be. thats awesome and I want to have that for next 12 years aswell.
very personal I love the storys you can tell from that many years of experience, it fascinates me and makes me think and reflect on the all the things that I achieved and experienced aswell.
Man, fucking giving the rare tusk of mannoroth to mcconnell .. that video brought tears to my eyes. most epic thing ever.
second: looking at the views of your vids it reveals the following conclusion:
If your Primary Goal is to reach as much people as possible, do "how to" guides. how to get gold, how to level fast, how to etc.etc.etc. I learned so much from you just by watching how you play, it helps out a lot.
Hope that this does help you. Hve a good one, looking forward to new stuff form you!
you should make a guide on how to get the fox mount
I see what u did there
Zach i want you to do anything that makes you happy and be passionate about what your doing! Everyone will love you for it.
You're guides ARE amazing, but I do find your more vlog style vids the more watchable, and ones that I can actually watch repeatedly. Congrats about Twitch however XD You've definitely earned it. I think it boils down to what you feel you would feel like doing. Whatever you decide I'll still end up watching!
Hey man, really glad to hear that you're finally taking the next step in your career, you're the only streamer I have ever wanted to keep a recurring sub with just for the sake of supporting you. I'm really looking forward to what the future will bring. Keep on keeping on friend :)
Quick Edit, In terms of content I feel like you should make the content you enjoy the most, and then maybe balance it out with hot topics that people want to hear your take on, like when you covered nostalrius and things in that ballpark. I feel like content with a lot of passion and love behind it is enjoyable to a certain degree regardless of the topic at hand. I can't speak for everyone but personally I watch your stuff because I think you're eloquent and usually very educated and involved in the things you talk about which brings a lot of energy to the videos.
Wasn't such a quick edit after all
im sub a few years now cuz i saw one of your video explaining something and you were real! a real person talking about the stuff im interested in and not crapping about the neighbours dog. if i can watch/listen your streams everyday because i do enjoy the moral explains you make during those hours even if i do not agree with you all the time, just your rhetoric is exciting. i do not care and i do not give advice how to change your channel. but listen to this: it is all up on you if you feel you can do it better/other way just do it. i myself moved 2000 miles from home to a country i "just" spoke the language with my wife she did not at all and now both doin fine. trust in yourself, dont be scared of new stuff. if its out of your comfort zone do it offline try it out if it fits you do it live. have a nice weekend and keep big dicking!
Honestly, I don't even play WoW right now, but I still watch your videos. Why? Because your videos allow me to keep tabs on what is going on in WoW, and they are entertaining, logical and funny. When I did play WoW, I found your guides to be very helpful and were a great resource to go back to when I needed help completing achievements & personal in-game goals.
With that said though, I believe your biggest draw is your personality. I think a lot of people identify with you (as a 26y/o, skinny white kid from Texas, I know I certainly do). You say what we are thinking, and put into words our thoughts and concerns about a game we all enjoy and love. You are not afraid to be yourself, to be self-deprecating, or afraid to admit your faults or to be overly critical about WoW. You are reflective and straightforward, you don't not trying to deceive us into believing you are something that your aren't, and you always make your intentions well-known and clear.
Ultimately though, you got to this point because of the choices and decisions that you decided on yourself. If you have a gut feeling towards going one way with your channel, I would go with it. If that decision doesn't work out, roll with the punches and try something else. I don't think any of your subscribers feel like you owe them something, or it is your obligation to produce certain material. Just produce quality material and don't be afraid to take a risk with trying something new. At the end of the day, I would still watch regardless of the material you were covering, as long as you remained Zach/Asmongold.
definitely keep making the guides, theres not many other youtubers who put guides out that are as easy to follow as yours
I've watched your videos for a while, now. I like both types: I like the daily "in-the-life" vids, and I like the guides. There have been quite a few times that I've searched out your guides on things, specifically, because I know you give good information without a bunch of fluff like some other content creators do.
If I HAD to pick one or the other, I'd probably pick your daily in-the-life vids, with some twist. You could do your vids about what you're doing in the game, and if you're doing something that would benefit from a guide that would help a good portion of your viewers, tell us a guide is coming and make one on it! I think you can do both and be happy, but I'd focus on your videos and streams that you enjoy doing. Making guides will be enjoyable, too, but you can make those as a side-thing while still enjoying whatever you want in the game and all of your fans enjoying it with you.
Best of luck going forward! Congratulations!
Dude, your guides are the best i've found there are "better" channels that put out more content and go into massive detail and backgrounds and lore, but you get right to the issue and its nice quick and simple.
I'd say you should do the guide monthly for things you have a passion for, and make videos for whatever you want.
Your solo guides are what brought me here. I use them all the time when I go back to old content. That drive you were talking about in your video is not something everyone has, so when you do those guides you are helping people like me who don't have that drive. But I enjoy all your videos. Just do what keeps ya happy. Grats on the sub button.
ive watched all your videos for years, ill be supporting on whatever you decide to do.
You do what makes you happy, You got me back into wow and I enjoy watching you stream/YT and have fun
I love all your videos, from you guides to your v-logs...vlogs lol... You are very knowledgeable and wise about the game and in some aspects of life. You could just do one vlog and one guide a week, that way you wont be so overwhelmed with twitch and youtube. Or perhaps just do one guide a month since it take the most time, and maybe 2 vlogs a week? or perhaps do one week guide, other week 2 vlogs, then alternate accordingly. that way there is some variation to your work and product, and also gives you a goal.
Sadly, I do not watch twitch regularly because I work a lot. If i were to watch the vods of the streams, it would be a lot of content and I would just like the summary or highlights, the cut version. Thats why i like youtube compared to twitch, I do put twitch on occasionally to just watch something if I am bored or about to sleep. But congrats on the sub button!
Grats on the sub button. Seems like a natural evolution for your channel based on all the work you have been putting in. I like all your videos and watch them all. Go in the Direction the benefits you and your family the most. Either way your content is going to be touching people...no homo.
Congrats mate with twitch
You should dedicate your channel to your true calling, sexy cosplays of WoW characters, do it!
We all know its where your talents are at.
I'll try to give you an "Italian's community pov" as far as i can.
Nearly everyone that follows you from here, is an expert player who seeks to find some kind of comparison between what he does and what you do.
That partially explains (if the italian sample could be considered an actual sample of your audience), why detailed guides you did, took less views by your subs.
I think we are mostly composed of ppl that actually play the game since a lot of time, and what we like in your videos is this sort of dialogue with you, like we can do even with a guildmate, with nearly our same experience and point of view about the game and each one of his states.
Anyway, i'll follow you prescinding of what you do, and wish you good luck and good work on what you're about to do.
go for it bro, make some dough off this shit, we are rooting for you, 10/10 will watch
Your gym class analogy really hit head on for me. Love your channel and your videos and wish I had time to stop in your stream more. As some one still fairly new to this I hope to one day be 1/4 as good as you are with the drive and passion you have for what you do. It's a really good story where you came from and where you are now. Hard work and dedication. Much respect.
Do whatever you find most enjoyable Zack, I'll keep coming back to check out your new videos whenever they're posted
Your guides are awesome! There are a few others that make them though. Perhaps if you are getting requests for a guide on something you can see if another UA-camr has a really good video on it and link to that video. If you cannot find a good guide on it then you make the video. Since the guides don't bring in as many views as your other videos you may not lose out there and can still be helpful and have time to create different content that does get a lot of views instead guides that have already been made well. I think what your audience loves is your personality so no matter the content if you're talking WoW your subscribers are going to be happy. The fact that you got a partnership shows that you're already doing a great job. Just keep doing what you've always done and try not to stress too much on it. The internet loves you!
Gratz on the sub button man! Can't wait to see where you head!
Congrats on this big step forward Zack! I can understand the nervousness for sure.
The pacer Test analogy was on point lmao
Wow, your vids have always been great, especially the guides, that aside, I think I have a new level of respect for you. It's not easy to be as candid as you just were and just lay out all the cards on the table. Congratulations on your partnership, can't wait to see how far you can take it in the future.
True shit bro. I understand 110% put everything into what you do no matter what it is. I'm the exact same way. Really respect you man, watch all your videos and catch your streams whenever I can
Congrats on the partnership bro!
I usually do not watch your guide videos but ones that i find interesting such as your video "a great way to quickly farm legendaries and legionfall reputation" really helped as a returning player. That said, my favorite videos by you have to be the Iron man challenge ones; i personally enjoy your personality and agree with your opinions but i really enjoyed that series for what you made it not just the series itself
I have 6 characters I play, the lock and DH the most fun for me. A lot of what you do is going places and doing things I just won't. Don't have the time, not in a guild that's doing it anymore ect.
So, it's fun to watch what you do and live vicariously. I do use some of your guides to get better, they do help.
Rock on Asmongold, grats on getting this far.. and heres to getting further!
You really don't ever make bad videos. I just like the frequency at which you made them previously. It's pretty comforting having something to look forward to almost everyday of the week.
You have an excellent plan. Continue to do videos when you can because they're awesome and fill the gaps for me. And as for Twitch I'll see you there as well. Best of luck in all of your endeavors
i just want you to upload the videos you want to make, ill for sure watch what ever it is!
As far as your two main choices of basically doing a "Weekly Reset" that Taliesin and Evitel do or doing the dungeon guides that I've not seen anyone else do better / more informatively I'd say toss in hard on the guides and not worry too much about immediate return as those seem to be things that are good even in future expansions in a lot of cases. Best of luck whatever you decide though, and I'll be watching here on YT -- don't get over to Twitch much anymore these days unfortunately although being a partner is super huge and gratz on that too :)
THE God.
why downvote lockbro
why downvote lockbro
why downvote lockbro
jk :D
im subbed to pyro :P
dude im SO happy for you! Im a proud Asmongold subscriber on all platforms and i'll continue to support you and never expect more or less.
I rarely tune into the streams but I love your vids, even the ones on your personal channel. Wish I had real advice for yuh, but naw, same ol' thing you likely already hear often enough. Just do what you enjoy. I find your videos to be very helpful. Peace and much love man. Shout-out to all the Warrior mains. FTA!
All I can say it that the very first video that got me engaged in your channel was the how to be an elitist one, probably you're funniest one to date imo. Never stopped loving your channel though.
Love the silly funny videos as well as hearing opinions. Guides are great as well as I have used them (don't play WoW anymore atm) but I can see the value in them. Hope to play WoW again somewhere in the future as well.
Loved the guides you used to do back in the day (The Insane etc) - but continued to stay subbed all this time for all of your content, not just those!
Grats on the sub button. I personally don't generally need guides, but I still tend to watch your stuff regardless. I think showing what you're up to is a good direction though, just because I imagine you wouldn't run out of material as much. In the end, do whatever you like the most / generates the most ad revenue for ya. xD Stay chill.
I feel like u should do videos about what ur doing in the game aswell as some guides when u feel u want too, ur guides helped me alot but also watching u just roam around doing other things is amazing too, keep it up Zack!
For me it all started at the old school guides for the raid achievements in Wotlk, those 20+ minutes long videos on where you just explain everything in detail. Your channel was small, but you were putting out such amazing content i just had to subscribe :P Nowadays, i think its important for to have fun while making your videos and entertain the ppl that watch them and at the same time, when you have some cool tips and tricks, feel free to share them and make vids about it!
Views are always kinda tricky, take Pewdiepie for example, around 57mill subs and around 3/6 mill views on his vids, thats about 10%.... Not sure why and how, but it happends everywhere. I think the most inportant is for you to have fun, and the 'like bar' looks like a blue lightsaber, little dislikes and a load of likes! Thats how you know the ppl like your content :)
Keep in your unique style of fun and vids and you should be good!
You are my go to content creator on UA-cam. I check your channel first for new videos, and when I have nothing else to watch, I'll go through your old videos for something to listen to while I'm doing other things. I don't even play WoW anymore, but I've always found it enjoyable to hear your humor, listen to your advice, and vicariously experience things from the game that I never got a chance to see for myself. I'm excited for more from you, even if it's esoteric stuff that will never apply to me, because your videos are always interesting regardless. Keep doing what you do, and I'll keep watching you gladly.
Congrats on everything you've achieved man. Best of luck in the future and take it easy.
I love your guide videos a lot. I watch all of your videos either way. As long as you make videos, I'll be watching. Congratulations on your Twitch deal
I love your Glory Guides. Congratulations on the Twitch partnership.
I don't play anymore dabbled in some legacy vanilla and tbc stuff earlier this year, but I still sub because 1) I usually find my thinking in line with yours 2) I can stay in touch with the game I played for so long at a distance through you. I'm 41.....if you want to know what real gym class is like let me know. Take the channel where your instincts say to take it, your instincts will be correct not the responses and not what you have overthought.
Ive been watching you for years. Your activity guides and Preach's class guides are two of the major catalysts for me still playing warcraft. Congrats on the sub button. I think that you have a big enough fan base that you could actually do both. Ive been watching you on twitch lately. and the content is all good and stuff. but I dont think many people (certainly not me) are watching to see you kill your 105,568th rare on Argus. We watch for your commentary and entertainment value. Even if its in the background while were playing a game. or whatever. I think maybe you could stream your activities while youre making the content for the guides youve always put on youtube. you could even stream your process of editing and bloopers during that process. People watch twitch as a form of entertainment but go to youtube as a form of entertainment and also of reference. You can go back and pause, reverse, skip etc through a youtube video on how to get whatever mount or achievements. Find a way that you can do both. Making those guides and videos can compliment your streaming content. mix it up. youre one of the biggest warcraft streamers. Essentially, I feel like you can do whatever you want. People watch SodaPoppin sit at his desk and buy shirts on Amazon. your content is much more informative than anything he has ever put out. Stay entertaining, stay controversial, keep informing. Compliment your Streaming with your video production.
ps- Incorporate Links to CatDany's Page into your UA-cam info/header to keep your viewership happy. Partner with him and make it simple for people visiting your page to know that they can easily catch the "best of " videos.
Either way, Ill keep watching.
You got it Zak! I will give you my spirit energy!
Dude, if I try to do something and I can't figure it out all I have to do is type the thing and asmongold into youtube and then I just do it. Your guides are the best ones. easy to follow and on point +entertaining
As a new player to WoW, the route of making guides is basically the dream for me. You're my favourite WoW streamer, and the only one that doesn't make me go ResidentSleeper, and learning more about the game while enjoying more content from my favourite WoW personality sounds really good. I hope you figure everything out Asmon.
Great plan asmongold!
Nice seeing you are taking the step up both in streaming and in youtube!
Is there any way you could do both? Your guides are how I found you and I still watch them today, they are SO useful.
To be honest, I don't see why you couldn't keep the semi-mixed format of the channel you've had so far.
The fun bantz and you doing you is what I subbed for, so that's always a safe bet. The guides you've put out have been awesome and very helpful indeed. So why not keep that balance?
I understand it might be challenging to prioritize at certain points in time which type of video would be best received, but at times like that I think it's helpful to realize that there's no pre-determined optimal path for you to take your channel through. Make inventory of your energy levels, your personal level of engagement with each option you have, and make a survey of your audience's preferences through a strawpoll or a vid like this. :)
From my point of view it doesn't make much sense to make a big, hard-line decision on producing only one type of content over another. I'd rather try to evaluate on a case-by-case basis whether the type of guide you plan on making would be interesting for the majority of your fans or not. Even class specific stuff is fun to watch despite the fact I don't main a warrior!
TL;DR: DON'T FRET OLD MAN! You do you, you da only tr00 azm0nb4llz! Don't fix what ain't broke! ;)
a guide or two a week along with maybe a stream highlights video once a week or so would be an awesome combo for the channel and would cover a lot of the stuff people want to see i believe.
You are a large source of the information i use for my warrior, guides would be much loved. Congratz on the sub button aswell
I really like your guides, but I'm going to watch whichever way you decide to go. It's all helpful!
I found your channel from searching for a guide back in MoP. The guides were clear concise and bullshit free! That's what i loved. I followed the guide and i got the job done. I subbed, became a fan and i cant wait to see more content. The entertainment and information you provide us is pure asmonGOLD!
Grats on the partnership AG. I'm not a big stream watcher but I do love your guide videos.
I'd like to see your guide videos again. But if you also want to crank out a couple videos of chat, maybe cut together highlights from twitch sessions too.
Sounds good man best of luck! Got the best vids around I wouldn't worry to much on the views like you were talkin about if others are like me when I take a break from WoW I kinda just fall out of the videos as well but have always came back to your channel when I come back to the game. You got good content man that's for sure
I've always loved your videos dude. Very funny and sincere thanks for the hard work and hopefully you feel less stressful soon.
Do whatever you want 2k14 asmongold 2k15 2k what the fuck ever is what we came for
Good luck with everything! ill be watching you on youtube and twitch.
Congratz on twich partnership! Honestly I like most of your guides, but I tend to tune in for your take on the news and things going on in WoW. I don't always agree with your take, but getting a different point of view always helps and is appreciated. I would like some basic guides from time to time, things like farming currencies, raiding, and those kind of things. I honestly view less ptr coverage but that is only because I rather see most of it while it is live. Anyway, that is all the feedback I have, and congratulations again :D
In terms of information and reach, guides are a good thing to start on. If you think someone might get stuck on something, or you're leveling an alt and noticed something that has only been said a few times on video, make something about it. I don't fault you for having less videos, maybe cause I only recently subbed, but known of your existence when Draenor was about to end, but you are funny. I'm a bit worried twitch might not have the same humor as you, but you're a good guy to have around. One more thing, you do a lot with Transmog, and some of us are just lost as heck on it, so maybe there's something.
My suggestion is: Just be youself.
I started watching your videos simply because i enjoy your personality.
Just keep being you.
About the videos : Keep your usual serious guides / Overviews, but if possible bring back the old fucking around kind of videos.
Like the sgit you had on your old channel, irl stuff like Asmongold's lair etc.
Congrats on your sub button and good luck my nigga.
Guide vids are my personal favorite. However there are only so many you can do. Wrath, Cata, Pandaria, Dreanor. Each has a dungeon and raid glory. Once there done there done, so eventually guide material will run out. It's probably a good idea to space it out. I am going between your cata/dreanor dungeon hero guides now.
Happy for you man! Been watching since, "How to be an elitist in WoW.' If I were to give any suggestions it would be:
1. Create a Patreon, the stress of needing money does a lot to stifle the creative process, you have a big audience here that may not ever watch twitch, give them the ability to contribute to the content they watch.
2. Keep posting the guides for achieves (mounts, meta, etc.), tips and tricks, and the occasional 'week in warcraft' type of video.
3. Repost unique and exciting stream highlights (getting a rare mount + reaction; first kill on end boss, etc), but not reposting the whole stream or hours at a time.
4. Reflections about the state of the game, future of the game, etc.
If you did these things, I would be as happy as ever. But above all of this, do what makes YOU happy, because in the end that's all that matters.
Honestly if you enjoy making the video you upload i'll enjoy watching it, doesn't matter what type of video it is. You wanna pump out 5 guides in a week and then upload some montage or whatever the next week i'll watch it, you got here doing what you like to do, so continue to do that and we'll be here to support you!
I feel you mah boy. I have to tell you that I've laughed and learned a lot with your videos, specially the "funny" ones. Remember that "How to Correctly Play Arms Warrior in Patch 6.2" video? That was the reason I suscribed to your channel, and that's what I would like to see from you in the future, that sense of humour you bring us out in nearly every video. Keep going forward friend and never give up, there's people out there you can't see that are cheering you up.
I love your guides man! Quick, informative and straight to the point annnnnd entertaining to boot! Would love to see you post your streams on UA-cam too!
Change can be scary man. But look at how well you're doing. You have these subs and views because people love your content. If people are upset it's because they can't get enough of you. You rock. Your videos rock. I'm happy with both options, trust your gut, it got you this far :)
Congrats mate. really glad you have such a good opportunity. and now be careful, don´t screw this up. have fun creating new content and relax.
I think you should keep doing the guides and stuff, even if it is on stream. Just make a VoD of it and put it on UA-cam. I know personally I would still watch it no matter how long it is or if it is scrambled. A guide is a guide. Keep doing you man!
Just subbed because of this FYI. Your videos especially the challenge mode videos are incredibly beneficial and helped a lot. I've watched probably hundreds of your videos over the years and the ones I enjoy most are the Guides and Transmog competitons. I mean the mount farming vids are great but I'm not one to enjoy watching someone try hard and not get something, still watched them though, just for the showmanship.
Guides walkthroughs and breakdown tutorials are really solid keeps me coming back time and time again. Keep up the solid vids man, and keep being our boi! Asmongold!
Congrats man on the sub button. Do the content that you want to do and dont feel pressured to do. We all will support u 😀
Gratz on the sub button. As for youtube I'd say go for the guides, this is the content I enjoy the most, but at the end of the day guides or no guides, I'll watch every video you put out.
Subbed originally bc of the achievement guide videos which were excellent. Be a shame if you stopped them, but you do you. I'll keep watching. And gratz on twitch!
KING ASMONBALD! grats on partneship !
Also congrats on hitting partnership with twitch. I hope to some day be able to have news like that.
I miss the "old" style guide videos, they are the reason I subscribed, even if I didn't watch every one the ones I did use I watched over and over, I memorized them to help me level faster or make gold or whatever, I would like you to do guide videos. Thank you so much for everything you have done to help wow gamers, I know bliz hasn't always appreciated your opinions and the tips and tricks you gave us, but I sure did! Thank you!
Bring the guides and real talk videos! You hooked me with your guides and real talk videos. How to be an elitist. Solo achievements. The guild management ones. Just do what got you here man. That's what most of us subbed for in the first place because your passion shines through in those videos.
Guides bruh. I think a good combination of guides and the videos you've been putting out recently would be quite entertaining. Anyway thanks for all the work you've put in. Good shit my dude
Do what makes you happiest long term. That is my best advice for you. As far as what I like to watch from your videos, honestly it is a balance between the strategies and the more relaxed fun videos like the mount contests. But in the end, find what makes you most happy for the long term.
This reminds me of people who can't decide which class they want to play. Often times worry about which class would be most beneficial to the raid, which would be easiest, which is OP AF, and whatever else. At the end of the day, do what you love and that passion will bring you to a much higher level.
Upload your tmog and mount comps to youtube really fun to watchand you got a good eye
yeah i agree with the running thing im the same and that translates to other life things
