Hey guys, I'm VastGameMaster, and this is going to be a my
First channel update, so there's a few things. I'd like to talk about today, and one is
Introductions about myself Who am I why did I start doing YouTube in a second, it's going to be talking about the new
YouTube's policy and the third is pretty much what my plans are for the whole YouTube thing so
Let's get started if you guys are new to my channel make sure you hit that subscribe button notifies. You don't miss a single video
Basically, I am basking master where I got that name is
Basically, I got the name vas Game Master when I got Xbox Live for the first time for my xbox 360
and
I wanted to have the name game master because my mom called he called me a game master before so I wanted to use that
Because I played so much games back then and I still do now
and I wanted to use the name game master, but I was taken so I had I had a
Couple choices I can either have virtual Matt a virtual game master fox game master or baski master
So, I just chose the fast game master, I didn't I wasn't really thinking
I just kind of picked it out of instincts I guess and
So I I ran with it and it actually kind of sticked to me
I grow on it, and now I use it as a name and gamertag
No matter where I go
online
So I use that everywhere and people calls me vast for short
And so that's how that whole thing started
So basically, where do I live I live in the United States where in the United States?
I live in, Ohio
And that's pretty much as far in depth on but I'm going to go about that manner coz of security
So I hope you guys understand
Yes, and also secrecy
So yeah, I also live in
Ohio the great state of Ohio in the United States. I'm also a college student
I go to a community college here and
What am I majoring in I major in game design and?
Also a computer soon. Well. It's a game design. I'm majoring in game design, cuz
my degree also says compute computer science and game design, but I
Major in game design because games is the only thing I'm focused on
So I'm still going now, and I recently just started my my semester so pretty much
I'll still try to maintain a schedule of uploading at least one video each week
Cuz right now until I go on summer break. I probably won't be able to do any more things
with the channel and
I'm also currently
I'm like a full-time student, so I really don't have a job. I live with my parents too so it it
Just kind of works out. There's a lot of
college students that does that
Which I was kind of surprised by that
because I didn't know what the college life was like I
Also, have a couple of friends. I'm also part of the a videogame Club
at my
Institute or my college was because I wanted to make more friends, and I wanted to talk to more people about
stuff about games and game design
And I did
But I was also kind of looking for girl gamers too, and I'm not
Talking about the fake-ass girl gamers on
Twitch that likes to shoulder ass and boobs for money or likes to kind of just shake their ass for money. That's all I'm not
Talking about those airheads. I'm talking about
real gay gamer girls and
There was only like a few of them there, but they were mostly shy and reserved ative and they don't really talk too much
Whereas the guys were kind of like the opposite of that so that was the whole experience?
but hey at least I made a couple of friends and I
Tried to actually I have a social life
I still got a long way to go but I
Also looked at the YouTube channel stuff, and I have a couple of friends that
watches the YouTube channel we talked about it before and I
I remember that I
Remember why and I wanted to start the YouTube channel career when I was talking about it
with my my colleagues
It was because I watched a couple of my favorite
youtubers go on a tour in Texas one was devil dog gamer
Angry Joe, and then he else and and there's also Baron spawns gaming and a couple of other youtubers I can't
Really recall cuz I don't know who they are and I don't watch their
Content cuz I don't know who they are
But they went to Texas and this was like for a promotional stuff for a war thunder
So they got the ride around and drive and drive around shoot guns on these World War 2 era
American tanks and Texas and
a devil dogs
gamer perspective
He thought he talked about how you know this isn't the first time he's been in a tank before is no big deal
But my god was as slow and loud
and
After watching an entire video, I was like that's like a that
That is so amazingly cool, and I was just inspired to do it like I there's there's there's
There's something that lit
That lit up like a candle, and I was like yeah, I think I think I'm just gonna go and give this a shot
so I started a YouTube channel I
Started thinking about a lot of things
and
I started thinking about
What am I gonna do in my channel? What am I what am I gonna be about what am I gonna do this and that?
well
Arang
2016 was when I kind of started that have all all these sides for my channel
and I was like well obviously I gotta get stuff figured out, but um I
Kind of had everything set up
Like I had I had my my youtube thing figured out. I had the adsense account. I was I was ready to get started
but uh
I was also hearing a lot of bad stuff going on on YouTube about how YouTube were screwing up
their YouTube bliss growing up
Screwing up a lot of this stuff. That was going on and
It didn't really make
Make it easy for me to actually get started on the whole YouTube thing because I hear about this ad pocalypse
Over here on the right and then over here on the left
I hear about how a lot of youtubers are leaving because you're not making enough ad revenue, and it was just like
the whole thing was just a mess and
It probably wasn't that bad
But it was just a mess and I was just like well. I'm just gonna wait it out until YouTube gets better and
September
2017 I was actually led
I I actually believed that things were probably getting better because I wasn't hearing too many bad bad news about it
I was trying to play everything by ear and
So I was like okay, this is I'm gonna start my channel now. I'm gonna stop waiting around
I want to start my channel and so I did I got a banner. I got a my gamertag I got
Everything's set up. I even got like my channel art
I even looked up videos and started researching how to start my channel and this and that I really I really just
Did some some some research some research and preparations?
I even had a video that I just came out of nowhere cuz I didn't want to
Act like you know like an amateur. I'm like hey, I'm vas game master
I'm gonna make an a new channel and all that so I hope you guys know
I'm gonna do that I just said screw it. I'm just gonna hit the ground running
So what I did was that I hit the ground running. I made my first video which was Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon wildlands and
I got a few choice words about about that game
But I'll talk about here in a few minutes. I
Played I started playing that game with my friend I
Use bandicam which was the worst thing I could have used because I I knew that everybody else was using OBS
but for some reason I didn't I didn't use OBS until probably around the second part two of Ghost Recon wildlands and
even then I was actually kind of like new to using a thing I had to go look up videos and
find out how the hell do I use this thing because I've never used this before I'm whole I'm
Entirely new to the concept of recording, but I'm not really
I'm like friendly new with it like it's not completely foreign to me, but I'm completely me. I'm like
Friendly new did a whole recruit
recording thing and I've seen
I've watched and learned a lot of youtubers
And
I've actually kind of liked when I wanted to do the YouTube things seriously and even then I when I wasn't
Taking it serious. Seriously, and I was a viewer
I
Still took notes like I still like solve some things that a lot of youtubers do or I saw some good things that they did
and then I just kind of put it into my videos, and I'm just basically just using all the knowledge stuff that I
absorbed from watching YouTube
videos
Or probably about six years and
I
Got a met it it was actually
It was actually a kind of a tricky start
Because I didn't know what to do at first and I had learned how to use these softwares and stuff
and then I also had to look up a
Editing a video editor software, and I know there are free ones out there, but I actually had to pay for one
Because this one was very basic. It's called the YouTube movie maker and
some people
Probably would call it
No would not think highly of it, but I've been using it, and it's I'll tell you right now
It is a good basic tool a tool to use
however
Wait if you do decide to use this and there's a free trial the free trial does not allow you to render the video
Past five minutes, so if you have like a thirty minute video which is what I did and
You don't read that fine print that says that unless you pay for the premium
then
You would be able to render the video no matter how long it is
But yeah, they also have like the free edition they had a Gold Edition
It does not matter unless you pay for the Platinum, which they wanted like I think
$60.00 for it or eighty some dollars for it
but I bought the gold and man was I ticked because I
only had
20 minutes for know ten minutes
For it the render so a whole Mart marketing strategy with them is
Not something that I recommend
It should be like for gold you can render videos up for 30 minutes, and maybe if they like it
They'll put they'll pay for the platinum
but I
Managed to talk to talk to someone about it and works some things out now
Now I have unlimited time to render videos
We just kind of dump so if you guys are
Starting a channel you're looking for anything like this take it from me. Don't look for something
That's free and has unlimited
power that allows you to edit your videos and
Also, allow you to render him with no restrictions. No no dumb restrictions like that
But getting back into Ghost Recon Ghost Recon I play it at I only made four parts of it
I think part three was when the views were starting to dip a little bit
because part three was just
It was just it was just like not getting anybody's attention anymore
And I wasn't personally enjoying the game anymore along with my friend. I mean
me and buddy 325
have talked about this before about why ghosts or Recon wildlands just not as fun as it used to be anymore and
I'll make a video to actually talking about
Specifically why do I think that Ghost Recon wildlands is a disappointment?
And why I think it was a most disappointing game that I've ever played last year
And I even listened to youtubers
that said oh it is tactical you just gotta turn off the hood element to do and
This and that I did that and the game is still boring, and it does not feel tactical at all
At all if anything at play is more more like like the two games mercenaries
Then it does be of being a Ghost Recon game
but I
Will make a video about that eventually I got King
I don't want to make promises saying that oh, I'll make it tomorrow or next year
next week
I'll probably make it soon though went because right now my
College semester is starting up again, and I know how much work. I'm gonna be
Having to do, but if when I do make that video it will be a rant video
Because I got I got a lot of things that I like to talk about
And once that that video comes out. I'll make sure I post it right onto youtubes
Ghost Recon wildlands website in the forms so that they would see it everybody can see it
for the developers and
Ubisoft it'd be like a thorn in their side, but I want them to look at it
Because I want them to also hear what I got to say about it cuz
Ghost Recon wildlands just not it's not that Ghost Recon experience that anybody is
Expected to be but um moving on from that
So I've been hearing a couple of things that's going on from God on YouTube and I
remember before I used to be able to monetize my videos on YouTube but
That was around like September October came by they they told us you can only
Monetize your videos if you have a total of 10,000 lifetime views last year
And so I was like okay, well, I'll just aim for that then but at first
I was kind of like at apologies, and I was kind of getting upset upset about it
I even made a Twitter or tweet about it saying that you know YouTube has made it increasingly
difficult now for smaller channels to start off
so
That's what I did, I basically just I have no idea how the audio on here is, but I want to
Try to I think right there is about fine
Yeah, so so
Plus I'm also blowing on the mic to sound pretty sure you guys hate that but I really really
Trying to think about what the hell I was talking about here a minute ago
Around
October they recently just made a change saying that you had to get 10,000
Lifetime views and lifetime views is like your total view that your channel has gained
so far and
So I've actually been doing pretty good and getting a lot of views on this channel
And I think that's a good thing I didn't know one of my swat4
Videos have also been getting a lot of attention
and in the past few months, so
That kind of tells me right there that
Everybody really still are looking for swat4 videos
And I must have done something right to gain so much attention
Because I even made another video response responding to that and that thing is getting enough attention
So this year, I'm just gonna have to do more swat4 videos
which I'm I'm fine with that because there's a game coming out - supposed to be a
spiritual successor to SWAT called ready or not which
I'll talk about that when they make another update
But going back to what I was talking about the whole whole whole whole YouTube thing
the YouTube
Recently has changed their policies saying that you had to get one thousand subscribers and four thousand
watch time hours in the past twelve months and
That's the new standard before it used to been ten thousand views. They were all worried about to be use
This year I watched Jim Sterling's video talking about it. That's when I was aware of it
and
Now they're saying that you need that day have made a new standard which is a double standard
Saying that you need to have one that one thousand views
And you got to have four thousand watch time hours. You got to have both to both of those things
The subscriber base
Doesn't seem to be that hard because there's ways to kind of grow the channel faster and getting a larger subscriber count
Because there's channels out there that
Has hundreds of subscribers on them, and they have no videos they made no content
So there's there's there. There is a way to kind of spread your channel and ask for subs for subs and all that stuff I
Don't think it's really frowned upon, and I don't think it's it's illegal
But it seems to be
Probably the quickest way to get more subs being like a short notice
But as far as like. How's it gonna work out in the long term?
I don't know
That's why I'm also making videos and content and stuff so that you
guys can enjoy the videos and watching and stuff and you can subscribe and notify to
Stay up to date with the latest videos and all that stuff and you guys won't miss a single video
And you guys would also like the videos you would comment on all my videos which I've been
Appreciating a lot of the activity. I've been getting on this channel you guys are
Pretty awesome because we just passed a milestone that I kind of kept secret for a while. I want to because I was like I
was secretly hoping
to get past
10,000 subscribers, and we did and then you guys blew that out of the water
And then I'm just amazed by it you guys are really awesome. I really do
Think thank you guys for that. It's just you guys are really cool
So here's a new long-term task I like to reach up to a thousand subscribers
But my editor milestone right now for this year is set on five hundred subscribers, so I'm looking to get
500 subscribers this year
And as far as like
Am I going to?
Be able to monetize the videos and all that stuff probably no
And I dunno, I'm kind of like bouncing all over the place with all this stuff
I'm kind of like talk about two different things just
Bear with me okay cuz once I start thinking I'm going to
Digress, and it's this is something else that matters that I really need to talk about right now
But I pretty much said everything
I needed to say about that subject about how
YouTube has changed their policies and stuff like that so people are freaking out
about
that smaller channels cannot succeed anymore and
Stuff like that because I watched cutie Pie's video, and he showed a video of this one guy saying that
What are my and I quote? When are?
What do I what are my advices for smaller channels that are trying to trying to trying to succeed on on YouTube now after this
policy
Give up you guys
Cannot make it on this platform anymore and when I first heard heard that I just shook my head
I'm like no. I'm not giving up on this
Coz just because he says no. I'm looking on the right
I got people from channels that are actually trying to help grow each other
Trying to help each other out because you know what once you're once you're starting off a small Channel
Everybody is kind of like a close-knit group. You know it's like it's like we're all trying to help each other
We're all trying to trying to do our best to give you some chance some channel growth
And we're also trying trying to share each other's channel by
Commenting liking subscribing stuff like that you know
That's what I've seen for the past couple days aren't on here on on YouTube, and it's just it's just astonishing
Bigger channels like PewDiePie has already established himself and
He'll probably keep doing this until the day he dies
and
considering that he's still young it I
He's got he's got like a quite a long
Way to go
But I don't I I think the thing is that when anybody starts youtube on here
I don't think there's like an expiration date for it. I think it's like they'll just do it as long as humanly possible
And that's probably what I'll do because my plans for YouTube is to
Have a channel that
Is a friendly relaxed environment like game grumps. You know how they have
They they sit down on a couch they talk about stuff they talk about literally anything
They can make dick jokes and and instance
Sexual jokes and all kinds of stuff and people will laugh at and stuff
you know it's kind of its kind of like a community a
Comedy stand-up, not a community and so it's like that. That's you know as far as like the environment
They're in how it's like relaxed, and it's funny and it's enjoyable
That's the kind of an environment that I?
would like this channel to turn out to be and then I also like it to be a friendly a
friendly
friendly friendly environment a friend friendly environment
Basically what that is is that?
Angry Joe he does twist he has a lot of friends that comes over and plays games with him and stuff like that
That's kind of what I like to do - I would like to
At least have friends come online, and we do like a podcast or something like that talk about stuff and just hang out you know
And and then you guys in the chat would would also make some some funny puns or do some stuff
You know is it's basically just hatches having a good time is what I want to do in this channel
And I also want to make a lot of gaming. Let's play videos as well, and that's kind of what I'm aiming for
So
pretty much my goal for this year is to
Do better than I'm doing right now
Hopefully Keith I try to try to find new ways to kind of help grow my channel that I can do
but I kind of really need your guys's help too to help grow to grow to channel and
So if you guys like subscribe and notify that hopes if you guys literally or if you guys like and leave a comment
That helps too because I will
Interact with you guys since I am a small channel. I don't really have that many
People that floods to comment a comments section so I can actually keep up with every comment that comes up
before I reach it like a thousand subscribers and
Then it might actually get become too saturated, and I can't keep up with anybody's comments anymore
but for now
it's probably it's probably a good a
good a good middle ground because at least I get to actually interact with you guys and also sharing and liking my
videos to other people the other channels that
That you know to other friends and family members
They may like the videos. I mean if you if you enjoy it show it to somebody else you might also
You know cuz uh?
Just pretty much
Anything helps you know what you guys can do as like a YouTube watcher or Youtube subscriber
You can subscribe you can comment. You know like you can also share. It share sharing my videos
Anywhere on the social media platforms you know anything helps?
Well with all the stuff that's going on with YouTube lately. I've been watching videos and trying to do some research, and I've been and
I'm trying to find new ways to
Secure funding off the the YouTube platform and besides the whole YouTube ad revenue thing
Because the way things are going right now. I've been told this
several times
I've been told this several times that
the YouTube ad revenue is not a reliable source anymore mainly because
They because of the advertisers, and it's free in its because a YouTube player policies making it
difficult due to Google and Adsense as a
copyright policies
We're just kind of ridiculous
When Amazon bought twitch I'm kind of hoping that maybe someday with all that money though actually by
YouTube and kick and kick
the Google out on the street
And then Amazon would just take over and then after that we don't gotta worry about copyright policies cuz if you look on Twitch
They're still
copyright popular policies here and there but
At least Amazon is doing the right thing for what I'm seeing on Twitch. They're more
friendly for their content creators and streamers on Twitch
So who knows maybe Amazon my actually buy out Google and YouTube will probably become become a better place
But I do think that YouTube is
Kind of making things difficult, but don't let that discourage you if you're starting a new channel
And I'm not gonna let it discourage me because I don't look at it as discouraging. I just said
Well it's not it's not a big deal because I'm not really in a hurry to get this channel started
I'm not really in a hurry to get up to a million subscribers for me. It's not a race
I have to slowly build my my audience into like a snowball effect thing works like I make a small ball
And I start rolling in into the snow and it starts getting big. That's what I I was told
That's how that works and that's how I'm gonna do it so
Slowly, but surely. That's probably how my channels gonna grow they might grow quicker than I
believe or thinking might
But you know with your guys's help that I think I might actually be be able to get up there and hit that step
1000 subscribers mark
Sooner rather than later. You know at the end at the
the end of this year
So that's all I got it, so I talked about for a channel update
And if you guys have managed to watched all the whole video. I want to thank you guys so much you guys are pretty awesome
for for watching the whole video and
I know I've kind of like been been rambling on about things like here and there in a little bit a
Little bit there and getting kind of sidetracked. This is the first channel update
I've ever did and I just kind of want to
Talk about myself talk about this thing what what made me start youtube a bit so that you guys can get a better understanding
Of who I am and hopefully
hopefully I can open up to you guys a
little bit more so that we can kind of understand each other and might actually turn out to be a
friendly environment to where
everybody is kind of like a friend to me because it's just
You know you guys know me. I know you guys, and it's just you it's kind of like a friendly environment
But I'm gonna have to learn how to do that and hopefully you guys can teach me
So I'm looking forward to the new year because they're supposed to be some new games that are supposed to be coming out
That I'm looking forward to so you guys
look forward to that too and
oh
Before I die in a video I'll probably tell you guys this I'm planning on hopefully buddy three to three to five will come back
this weekend
on Sunday, which is
Let me check the schedule here
Hopefully buddy 325 will be available on the 21st of January of 2018
This year so that we can actually do another recording session of God Eater
Part five, and then I can make that video and have that out by next week. Hopefully
But there recently a buddy three through five has had technical problems with this computer is
Liquid cooling system on a CPU had died and he had to get that replaced and so far life has caught up
You know he's been busy with work lately during the weekdays
And so we've always been recording during the weekends when he's actually got a day off on Sunday
So hopefully things will go well, if not, I'll make another video next week
I don't know what it'll be about it would be about but
Make sure you guys look forward to that and again
Make sure you guys subscribe and notify so you don't miss a single video from me, and I'll see you guys next
You
