Yeah I generally am not interested in recording brand new games. Like, when Skyrim came out everyone was doing a let's play of that. And how boring is that?
After I finish Dead Space actually I'm gonna return to my roots and play and early 90's game.
I seriously wanna play Max Payne 3. But it'd be the first of the series for me to play. And I can seldom play a sequel right off the bat without playing the ones before it first. Even if I know the plot or the plot doesn't matter it seems I still can't.
Mm I should have no problem then. I think it's just the game itself that is lagging for other reasons. How big would you say are your 10 minute long files? I suspect I can achieve a higher compression of the ones I'm making without having to lose much quality.
When I recorded with FRAPS I always had two persistent issues. One was I never could get the counter in the upper corner to go away. I assumed I had to get the paid version of Fraps to get rid of that. Second was when I recorded older games such as Fallout 1 with it, it made Fallout run really laggy. But I was trying Fraps to record Fallout because I've had bad luck forcing the game into windowed mode and Hypercam is really only good for recording windows as opposed to full screen.
Also, what kind of hardware do you have? Video card, RAM, etc? I know that extra RAM is useful for recording purposes and your videos look pretty smooth so I was curious.
Ayy, if you're talking about a couple of those Dead Space videos, that was a total accident. I usually have the game's audio turned down to about 4/100 but those ones somehow the game's audio was back to it's default 100 and I had already gone long past that point in the game so I just upped them anyway and acknowledged my mistake in the video's description.
Also with Privateer it took me a bit to figure out I could even mix the volumes so the first couple there the game drowns out my voice too unfortunately. So that was a learning process that I probably lost a few potential viewers over. LOL
Yeah and ultimately I just do it cause it's relaxing to sit back and talk about a game as you're playing it. What software are you using to record? I've tried lots of different ones and ultimately settled on Hypercam even though it tends to be better for older games only.
Yeah your editing is good and I like your online persona. I don't do anything fancy with mine. Pretty much 0 editing. But I think recording games for me is more an excuse to replay an older game one last time. Maybe I'll edit my sig with my channel in it like you did! Seems a logical start.

I usually just turn the game down on the volume mixer and then turn the mic input up higher.
