A Junkie Cowboy and Transcendence-chan take on Mithrix
Channel: Eclectic Polliwog
Date: 2024-03-22

This is edited gameplay from a RoR2 Bandit run on Rainstorm. After learning how to use OBS and tweaking a few settings, I gave it a trial run. Since I thought it turned out decent enough and I had a couple of memes ideas for it, I decided to edit and upload it.
Hence, this is actually the first gameplay recording I ever did, it was also my first time using DaVinci Resolve (and second time editing a video that required more than simple cuts and transitions).

I now understand what it actually means when Youtubers mention the preposterous amount of time it takes to make videos, as this one took me around 50 hours of work (around 30 of which spent editing). I've figured out why, when it comes to gameplay footage, people do either short and heavily edited or long but mostly unedited videos. Well, I guess at least it was an opportunity of learning the fundamentals of video editing I was interested in.
This isn't really the main type of content I'm planning for this channel, although I'm interested in streaming sometime in the future and might do highlights videos with the VODs (following either a "short video, lots of edits" or "long but low level of edits" format in order to preserve my mental health, depending on what format you like best).

(btw I have now received the good mic™, and with it came the discovery of a new kind of hell, namely trying to exterminate saliva noises)
