It's nothing new, there have always been people recording themselves playing video games lol.

But I agree with the youtube thing. You didn't see this many youtube channel / gaming / gimme subscribers stuff years ago.

i think it's 100% to do with the fact that the totally casual, pretty much clueless morons got popular. people like totalhalibut who became famous because of their novelty accent and the way that they speak, more than for gaming expertise. like who are these people when it comes to games? same as yahtzee for zero punctuation. doesn't play multiplayer or competitively at all, just presents things in a way that is 'funny'. now you have a million other neckbeards that are crap at games thinking they can go big, too, just because they have a voice and what they think is a sense of humour. christ, the internet will be the end of us all.

Also the fact it is really easy to record and upload video compared to a few years ago. Livestreaming in particular seems to have increased a shitload, not to mention starcraft 2 "commentators".

For some things it is good, just seeing how someone else plays the game can help you notice things you might not have otherwise. I suppose that is only really relevant to watching good players play (so not what you are talking about).

Being able to record and upload glitches, funny ai behaviour etc is worth it though I think. Compare 10 years ago where that stuff was all word of mouth "this guard kept shooting a wall" to just linking a video you made in 5 minutes of it happening.

That's why I miss the mouse and keyboard so much. I miss sniping like that in COD4 and COD5. I wish I could try it out on BF3 now but I'd have to spend over 150 for the XIM3 and another hundred or so for decent mouse and keyboard setups.

Where the eff are you shopping?

Fuck man, I use a $7 standard Logitech keyboard with a dab of superglue on the 'W' key to help feel when playing in the dark.

Not hundreds per se but easily up to $100.

I have standards.

I used to have this for my PC.

Those are well-priced, good quality, and in my opinion good looking gaming tools. I certainly wouldn't make a fuss about a cheaper keyboard and mouse but I can play a lot better when I have better keyboards and mice.

If you plan on getting a keyboard, buy one with Cherry switches.

that is an example of overpriced shit though, and is what floppy is talking about. plastic, annoying led's, loads of 'ricer' features you'll hardly ever use.

a quality keyboard has no leds, no screen, no macro keys, and strictly no plastic membrane. it's a very simple, functional piece of kit.

and that keyboard's layout/space is literally about 60% blank, unused, cheap plastic.

so gud
