The VGFacts Community Youtube Channel

[gamemaster1991]

Do we have a channel yet?

Not yet (at lest I didn't make one yet) I was waiting for us to deside on what we were doing with it, and for a channel name.

[Mass Distraction]

I was joking, mind you. I think I stated it before that I'm not, at least yet, going to be posting any standalone stuff on there.

[Psychospacecow]

Can someone set that up then? I'm not sure how to. Also, if we monetize this, how would that work?

I think that's the least of you worries. Trust me.

Why do you say that? Youtube's policy on games? It'd be cool if we could get on Normal Boots but I don't think we're quite worthy of that.

Cause right now you don't even have an audience, and for monetization to even remotely pay off you need a fairly large viewer base that will watch your content and click on ads and shit. Not to mention you haven't even started making content to shill to other people yet which means it's going to be a very long time before youtube or some network will even offer you a chance to monetize your little hobby.

What I'm getting at is that you're jumping the gun ten-fold. Hell, monetization shouldn't even be a goal right now. You biggest concern right now should be making content that people will watch, and showing it to potential viewers on other websites. (Like every other Youtube Superstar™.)

he's right. We need an audience before we talk big. We need to make sure that people are willing to watch (no offense everyone) a bunch of nobodys. There is a big difference between being The Runaway Guys or Game Grumps (who had fans before joining a group) and being PlebianAggregate the fan made channel. We need to make sure that everyone is serious about this project before talking about anything big. CL's idea of showing it to people on other sites might work but can we work on making videos first?

I'm still having doubts about the project. That and the preparations we still need to consider (along with a few other personal problums) is why I haven't made the channel yet.

[CLXcool]

I'd like to part in this. It could be fun.

[CosmykTheDolfyn]

Well, if ya'll don't mind, I'll claim my first Let's Plays for the group, once everything is set up.
Phantasy Star VI (just ordered AV cables for my Genesis today)
Front Mission (original SNES version)

Two classic RPGs without much exposure that I have played through multiple times.

[Psychospacecow]

Alright, I'm not sure how my computer would run with my current recording configurations on any games. It slows down YGOPRO so I'm going to have to change it. Could we try out something like the youtube livestream or a twitch stream to test this stuff out on? I'm not sure how it works but we'd see first hand how it'd look.

I think we should make a few tests videos. Not like full on gameplay videos, but like, 5 minute videos of gameplay for a random game.

[gamemaster1991]

So is PlebianAggregate the new name for the group? If so, good, we have a name. If not, we can wait untill someone comes up with one.

I think we need to wrap up on the amount of people who are starting with the group. We can have one or two more, but I believe that will be enough. After a while we can add more people if we want.

I had an idea of adding shows to channel, but I think we can wait alittle bit before we think of adding more than the podcast and LPs.

[Psychospacecow]

PlebianAggregate seems to be it.

[frankfrost2]

Yeah, im fine with that.

Also, I should just note that I dont have a camera or anything to record games with yet, but for the time being i'll happily play any multiplayer games with anyone until I do get something.

[Psychospacecow]

Can we update the 1st page with what consoles everyone has?
